The Lycan’s Human Mate

Claire’s POV

I looked at the path where Traian-my Alpha disappeared, still shocked to see someone shifting mid-air. Traian was our Alpha for many years and I have seen his wolf numerous times. We trained with him. But it still made my skin crawl in fear every time. Traian’s was a Lycan. A superior kind to normal Shifters like us. Among our pack and others, there was no wolf who possessed such pure black wolf but only Lycans. They were like darkness in the skin of a wolf. They were bigger than us and their limbs were thicker, stronger so was their presence.

I felt how my wolf instantly scooted to the back of my mind in the presence of Traian’s wolf.

I just know one thing-their Alpha will not stop until he draws blood from the people who were chasing Jaidyn.

“Go back to the house, Claire “, was one last thing I heard from my brother-Cayden before he shifted into his brown wolf and ran away from the area.

I looked to the sky where the morning sun shone so brightly, silently hoping to the Moon Goddess that our Luna was safe. I was about to go to my car when I heard a phone ringing inside the house. I turned around and went inside Traian’s house, bothered by the loud ringing of the phone and only planning to turn it off when I saw the name registered on the screen.

JANE HENDERSON

It was Alpha Jaxon’s wife and older sister of Jaidyn.

I picked it up and pressed the green button.

“Hello-” I was quickly interrupted by a panicked voice and a lot of noises in the background.

“Oh my god, thank god you picked up the phone! Traian, my sister was in danger! Help her. Please, she’s in danger!” Jane cried in the other line.

My eyes widened, “I-I’m sorry but it’s me, Claire. My Alpha was not here right now. He-he’s on his way to Jaidyn”

“Really? Oh my god!” Jane cried out, “Jaidyn is in danger! I-I was talking with her on the phone but I got disconnected. Oh my god, my sister!”

I heard some voices in the background.

“What does he say, Jane?” a female voice said then a manly voice added.

“Where’s Jaidyn?”

“Traian was on his way to her, Mom and Dad,” Jane said in a shaky tone.

“Calm down, honey, you got to calm-” came a slightly familiar voice.

“How can I calm down, Jaxon, when my sister is in danger!” Jane yelled.

I looked outside and decided to politely interrupt for a second. She needs to follow Cayden and Traian and make sure that Jaidyn is safe. I can’t just stay here without doing anything.

“I’m sorry but I need to hang up now, I gotta go” I ended the call and decided to bring the phone and sprint to my car, driving away to the house and rolling down the West Trail.

……..

Jaidyn’s POV

I snapped my head in front of the road we were taking while my heart was pounding loudly in my chest. The driver was gripping the steering wheel tighter and kept looking at the side view mirror while pressing the accelerator. We were going so fast that I was fearing for us both. From the wolves and how we are moving so fast.

I used the driver’s seat for support while looking down to find my phone.

“Please, please” I whispered nervously. My hands are clammy and I can feel the cold sweat on my back. I was shaking.

My eyes scanned the floor to find my phone when the driver screamed so loud that I raised my head.

“GET AWAY!” the driver yelled and shifted the wheels to the side to avoid a mother and daughter who were crossing the street.

At the speed we were taking, the car went straight inside the forest unsteadily, bumping. At the sudden force, I hit my arm on the door and was thrown to the other side again at the unsteady movement of the car.

The driver kept his hold on the wheels tight until the large tree in the distance appeared on our way. The driver tried to step on the brake hard.

“WATCH OUT!” I screamed, pointing at the tree.

“DAMN IT!” the driver shouted when the brake was broken and the car didn’t stop.

The car keeps on moving forward. I attempted to open the door but it was locked and the next second I faced in front the driver managed to shift to the left, causing the right side to be slammed on the trunk of the tree.

“NO!” I shouted, shutting my eyes instinctively until I felt my whole body going in front, hitting my head in front and glass blowing. My head felt lightheaded until I felt like losing consciousness and black dots filled my vision.

No, no, don’t. You will die if you sleep! Don’t, don’t, Jaidyn!

I fluttered my eyes open, breathing heavily. My gaze went outside where smoke was coming.

Smoke!

I bit my lower lip and pushed myself up.

“AHHH” I cried out, feeling so much pain coming from my arm and head.

I felt liquid dripping down my forehead and I weakly raised my hand, touching my skin. And the sight of blood on my hands was not a good sign. My gaze was starting to feel blurry.

I removed my seat belt and pushed the car door, stepping outside. I sank to the ground coughing as my lungs felt like they were burning. It was hard to breathe inside. I looked around to gasp in horror at the appearance of the driver in front. The driver had his head on the steering wheel and blood gushed out from his head.

I don’t know what happened, maybe the adrenaline rush pumping in my body made me stand up even though my legs were barely standing straight. I pulled the car door with all my remaining strength not caring about my injured arm which felt broken at the moment. I checked the pulse of the driver and I felt like crying when I sensed a pulse on him.

I did my best to pull him out of his seat and when I did, I dragged her to the farthest area near a tree. My head was spinning. I leaned on the tree trunk and forced my eyes to remain open. Every part of my body was protesting in so much pain. Even breathing was so damn painful.

But maybe they were right, when you are in danger, you do what you never imagined. I caught heavy and large footsteps like paws on the ground and an ear-splitting and shuddering howl of a wolf nearby.

I scoffed, feeling so helpless in the situation I was in. “Fuck this”

But my rational thought is that I do not want to be killed by a wolf or Shifter in the presence of the driver. For only one reason. What if he regained consciousness for a little and saw the wolves which I was sure were Shifters due to their abnormal size for an animal and saw them transform? I cannot let that happen so I do what I think is right.

I pushed myself up and as another rush of adrenaline was pumping through my legs, I simply got away from the place and towards the dense forest. I bit my lower lip as another stabbing pain crawled on my whole body making me fall to the ground. My legs were not able to hold my weight anymore so when I fell, my ankle twisted painfully.

“Oh fuck!” I cried out.

I lay still, waiting for the pain to subside. Tears gathered in my eyes as my whole body was aching. I slid backward, dragging my body to a tree, and leaned there. I was breathing hard and my eyelids were heavy but I forced them open. I heard the footsteps getting louder and heavier. They are near.

I looked up at the sky, I guess my life was about to end. How I wish I just got some explanation from my parents or I got to see my nephews even once. Maybe try to cook some very complicated meal just once? That would be awesome.
