Pov: Enzo

When I woke up I was no longer in the middle of the clearing. Instead, I was lying in the middle of a ginormous bed. I took a deep breath and my nose was assaulted with the most delicious smell.

Lowe began to prance around in my head happily for I reason I did not know yet.

I tried to detect where the smell was, only to find that the smell was everywhere. How did I not notice that? Intrigued I stuck my face into the sheets. God damn... It smells so good. I love this smell.

Excitedly Lowe began to jump and run around like a kid with a sugar rush.

Calm down will you? I'm trying to figure out what going on.

Wha...What?

Like where we are and how we got here.

???... Mate brought us here...

Lowe started running around like a pup. I'm gonna have a headache by the end of the day if this continues. I wonder what our mate is going to be like. This man is supposed to be my other half but what if...

My thoughts were silenced as the door to the room was opened.

Pov: Lycos

I did not want to bombard or smother my new found mate. It was hard holding Lupus back. So, in the end, I was constantly checking on him.

When I entered the room, he placed all his attention on me.

Oh! Hi! I was just umm..., you know checking one you."

He stared at me but didn't say a word. Then he nodded.

"So umm..., I'm Lycos, Alpha of this pack and uh... your mate. I'm also friends with your siblings."

I sat at the edge of the bed, waiting for a response. Quite honestly, I just wanted to hear his voice. But, he only just nodded again. Confused, I asked him if he was mute. He shook his head. He wasn't mute though he isn't talking. It was a bit confusing but, only the goddess knows what that rogue pack put him through. There were some signs of what he experienced.

Enzo was so skinny that outlines of bones were visible. His skin had bruises, old, and others still somewhat new. And his eyes had dark bags underneath him. Even considering his condition..., Enzo is still the most beautiful thing I have ever laid eyes on. His dark black hair, his light skin, and baby blue eyes made him stunning. His looks complemented his small feminine shape.

Enzo was simply stunning.

By the time I had focused my mind and turned my attention back to Enzo, he was already asleep again. Not wanting to leave him a grabbed a book of the nightstand and sat on the floor beside the bed waiting, for Enzo to wake again.

I want to trust him. I do..., It is just I don't think I can. I stared at Lycos' sleeping form. He was quite a sight. His light brown hair covered his sleeping eyes. The tan of his skin complemented his hair perfectly.

I don't understand how I am mated to this man. He was the embodiment of perfection and I was well..., just me. Usually, by now I am busy doing something... I don't know what to do with myself.

It saddens my heart that soon Lycos is going to find out how worthless I am. Then he is going to throw me away.

Lowe wants to accept him but I am not sure. I really don't want my heart to be broken. I want to trust that he won't but, my trust in others just doesn't exist anymore.

My brother and sister, I wonder where they are? They more than likely left disappointed in what I have become. I can understand if they ran for the hill and didn't want me. I hope that isn't the case.

Maybe I should just..., no never mind that would not only hurt both of us but possibly kill us too. Especially since we both have just met. I guess I will just have to let everything play out its natural course.

I closed my heavy eyes and let sleep take me again.

-- Enzo looks down at his feet as the wolves from the rogue pack approach him whispering words of malice. Finally, his old Alpha appears. 'Worthless trash do you really believe things are going to be different?' He laughs. 'No Alpha would want you to be there mate! Your just a good for nothing piece of trash omega!' Enzo begins to cry 'No..." he tries to speak but his voice won't work. The insults continue Enzo tries to run away from them but can't his feet are glued to the ground. 'You will die alone and in pain' was the last thing he heard before his old pack began to tear him apart. --

I woke up to find everything was just a dream. Or was it, I thought. The dream held some truth to it. Lycos is an Alpha... Alpha's have strong mates. I am not strong. In fact, I am weak. A shiver ran down my spine as a thought tickled my brain. What is Lycos going to do to me when he gets rid of me. I became sick just thinking about it.

My self-doubt and sense of worthlessness doubled and filled my mind. I am not deserving or good enough to even have a mate. Why oh why would does the goddess hate me.

A scary thought hit me... What if my dream comes true.

I tried to sleep but the dream kept haunting me. Every time I closed my eyes the dream replayed and a question kept forming in my head.

Am I really going to die alone?!?
