Chapter 1
Mason's Pov:
Great, another year passed and still yet, I haven't found her. Other werewolves find their mates at age eighteen and me, it's been millennials and yet am still waiting. The feeling of holding your soulmate in your arms, seeing her smile, I want it. Sometimes I actually get jealous at other wolves for having a mate. Even my beta James has three kids. Just where in the world is she?....
“Brooding again?" My sister Selena asked. She's the only one who has the authority to come into my study without my permission. Even James can't do it. Selena, my young sister who also has found her mate and is currently pregnant for her second child. Great, all the more reason to make me feel bad about myself.
“You do know that you are still going to find her, right?"
“When am I going to do it? I have searched the everywhere and even went into all neighbouring cities and yet. Do you know that this is the only thing I want now. To have my mate in my arms, my woman. Someone to call my own. You have yours, even Torac does and he is just a hundred years old. I see the way you smile at him. I want someone to smile at me the same way. That has been my dream ever since the great war and after our parents left. Is that so much to ask?"
“We all know it's been tough on you, that's why the council has decided to find a new wife for you. Even though it's not your mate, at least the feelings can still develop you know"
“Noo. I won't pick a random woman"
“I know it's going to be hard for you but you do know you need to have a luna by your side before the next full moon festival and that's in the next two weeks. I understand what you want but you can pick a luna and still look for your mate. Our pack accepts a man having a harem".
“I know all that. But I can't bring myself to do it. I know she's out there. I just need time"
“Permit me to speak to you as your sister alpha?"
“You know you never need permission for that Lena". I sighed. She is my sister but when it comes to the mate issue, she treats herself like a subordinate.
“What if you are looking for the right thing at the wrong place?"
“What do you mean sis?"
“Have you tried the human realm?"
“You know it's forbidden. I can't have a human mate".
“Don't speak out of term for you never know what the moon goddess has planned fir you. I suggest you give it a try. Just see it as a vacation before the moon festival. I and Torac will handle things over here when you are gone".
“What if it doesn't work out?"
“What if it does? Don't only see the downside of everything. Try to be positive. But you have to hurry. If you come back without a woman by your side, then you have to accept the council's decision on your luna. We both know who it us going to be and we know we don't want that" She told me and left. What she said actually made sense. What if the reason I couldn't find her all these time was because she was there with the humans. Living a carefree life. The thought of it alone was enough to make me happy. My mate, my own, my life. Am coming to find you. That was a promise I was making to myself and her. Wherever she i
