~Present~

                But for what? She is already engaged to another man and he saw him come out of her bedroom his scent was mixed with hers last night while she was in heat. That only meant one thing, they had mated together and now even if he touches her she will feel disgusted, because he isn’t her mate. But that can be arranged, the only way to have her is to kill her mate.

                Yes tomorrow night will be a wonderful night, he thought sourly.

                'They are coming! The rogues have been spotted five miles from here and by the size of them we are going to be in trouble! Everyone shift and meet at the forest!' Alpha Forrest yelled through every single werewolf mind in his pack.

                Lisa's breath hitched and her teeth tightened at the news of this. Dalton sensing his mate in distress asked her what was happening since he isn’t in her pack yet.

                "The pack of rogues are here, and they are preparing to attack," she explained, "Father wants us all to go to the Forrest to fight."

                "I won't let you go, I want you to stay here in your room Lisa," he ordered. He didn’t want to have his mate in the battlefield watching people die or her getting hurt. Dalton wouldn’t live with himself if she got hurt in there.

                "I don't want to, I will fight for my pack whether you want me to or not," she said sternly as she stood up and went to the balcony. Just as she was about to jump off, Dalton's arms snaked around her waist and stopped her.

                "Lisa I will go and fight, I want you to stay here for your safety. Please do it for me sweetheart," he begged.

                "I can't Dalton. My duty comes to my pack and right now they need me, you may think I am not strong enough to fight in this battle, but I will have you know I'm the strongest in it," she said and before he could utter a word to make her stay she was already jumping off the balcony landing perfectly on her two feet.

                Dalton shook his head and followed right behind her, if he couldn't make her stay then he will just have to listen to her and if necessary protect her on the battle field.

                When they got to the forest, all the pack members had already shifted into their wolfs and were in position to attack when the rogues appeared. All around her there was many different werewolves varying from sizes and color of fur.  

                The vast opened space would be perfect for the battle that was to come from the rogues, it was surrounded by evergreen trees and the ground was covered by lush green grass. The sun was slowly setting down over the landscape creating a red glow over the horizon. Soon the darkness would come and there would be no light but the moon.

                Shifting into her own wolf, Lisa stood proudly in her snow white wolf that was at least the size of two humans. Dalton had also shifted and stood on all fours his midnight black fur catching a few stray beams of the moon. His wolf was absolutely mesmerizing; it made her catch her breath.

                She couldn’t remember the last time she had seen his wolf from a close up view, there was never a time when he would shift unless it was really important. Dalton always relied on his strength and now she knew that this was extremely important if it meant for him to be involved.

                "Get ready! They are here!" Her father yelled and everyone's heads snapped to the direction watching as a hundred came washing in like a tidal wave. Lisa swallowed a lump that was forming on her parched throat. She had never seen so many wolves especially rogues, they were usually four or six that would come and attack their pack. But judging by the size of them she would guess they were a hundred.

                Everything was too fast that she had only caught the movement as many already were fighting to their deaths growling and biting the others. Blood seemed to be splattering everywhere as they fought to their deaths.

                Lisa found herself being trapped in a circle by five dark furred wolves that were eyeing her with a certain glint in their amber eyes that could only be described as, death. She knew what they wanted; they wanted her blood splattered all over the floor.

                She held her head up high with dignity and waited for their attack, if it was something she knew when in combat and you were outnumbered, it was that you didn’t attack first. It could be your death if you just attacked without sorting some sort of plan in your head.

                The biggest of the wolves came at her first, his mouth wide open showing his sharp canines, followed by the others that were closing more in on her. Without warning she dodged his attack, and went right under his legs then faced him snapping her mouth on his neck. Her teeth sank down on his neck and blood trickled down her chin as she snapped his neck sending a disgusting sound to echo as his bones snapped. She let go of the dead limp wolf in her mouth and it fell to the floor with a thump.

                She suddenly felt a sharp pain on her back, like claws that had ripped her skin and blood spilled out. She turned quickly finding the source of one of the wolves and then bit him on the paw he used to attack her. He howled in pain, and gritted his teeth in anger. He was about to bite her but she avoided it in the last second and snapped his neck with a single smack from her paw.

                Many of her pack members were fighting with everything they had, but it seemed it wasn’t enough. Lisa watched from the distance as her father fought and killed so easily as if he was only beginning. A shadow loomed behind her father, and she caught a certain color that made her run toward him, red…crimson red.

                When she reached him, her father was being chocked by Heath his hands around his throat as if it was nothing. She was sure he wasn’t this strong, a human can't do this it’s impossible. A human’s strength doesn’t compare to a werewolf.

                Heaths blood eyes met hers and a devious grin formed on his lips. Watching in horror her feet frozen in place as her father gasped for air. She was to shocked to respond and help all she could do was stay in place.

                Dalton's wolf suddenly leaped out of nowhere and tackled Heath to the ground releasing her father from the death grip he had on him. And now Heath and Dalton were fighting, Lisa couldn’t believe this Heath the one she had loved wasn’t a human. Death radiated off of him, he was a vampire.

                He lied to her, he made her believe she was in love with him when he had just put a charm on her. He was only close to her because she is the Alpha's daughter that was the only reason; he had made her believe there was a chance they were meant to be together.

                Lunging herself at the pair of boys fighting she growled aggressively at Heath, pinning his body underneath hers with her paws. She turned back into her human form and growled angrily at him; her eyes staring maliciously back with so much hatred and hurt that it made his smug expression falter.

                "Why Heath?" She demanded angrily shaking him with her arms, tears threatening their way to come out.

                That grin was back on his face when he answered, "I had to because I wanted to. The rogues wanted to kill your pack and I was sent to kill the Alpha. That was like hitting two birds with one stone."

                "So our time didn’t mean anything to you at all? Our friendship didn't mean anything?" She asked on the verge of tears her body trembling.

                "Honestly, I didn’t care at first you were just a tool I would use. But I guess along the way I did care about you, I was going to kill Dalton and have you for myself but I know you wouldn't be happy about that," he said his face hardening and his voice coming out deeper.

                "Of course I wouldn't be happy! If he dies than I would follow right behind, because he is my mate!"

                "I know, you would never forgive me from the beginning I knew you wouldn’t accept me and would coldly leave me for him, but I still wanted you. I know it was foolish, but I fell in love with you," he said his eyes turning back to those peaceful electric blue eyes she knew so much. “Can you blame me?”

                His sincere eyes and his gentle tone was all it took for her to erupt into tears. She grabbed his grey shirt in her hands and gripped it as the tears overflowed from her. Heath’s face softened as he embraced her and pulled her into his arms.

                He knew it was the last time he would ever see her; there was no way he could get out of here alive he knew that, she knew that. His actions would need to be paid for and there was only one way for him to pay for all this trouble.

                Dalton knew this shouldn’t go on, as much as he didn’t want to kill the vampire spam, he had to. He knew Lisa would feel sad over the loss of this man, but she had to understand that he is the enemy and he got himself into this.

                Dalton pulled Lisa away, and then shifting his hand into a paw with sharp claws he looked at Heath one last time before cutting him deeply in the heart. Blood poured out of his wound and he gave Lisa one last smile before he closed his eyes. "I love you."

                Just like that he died in her arms, blood pouring down and sticking to her skin as his body became stiff and then slowly his body turned into ashes. Once a vampire was killed his body would disappear and turn into ashes.

                The ashes dispersed leaving no sign that there was just a body right here before her. There was nothing but the wind that played with her hair and the voice of her mate as he gave her reassuring words.

Soul mate & the one I love

                “Lisa, come on talk to me I’m your friend,” Jenny pleaded for the fifth time this week. She had watched as her friend slowly faded, Dalton barely managed to help her regain herself but it just seemed like a part of Lisa was gone.    

                “I told
