Zack's POV~

It's been a few weeks since that last escape attempt. He's been watching me like a hawk targeting its prey. He's never left my side and never let's me leave his. He'll take me to his office and hold me on his lap while doing his paperwork. I didn't find out until recently I had a fox form with this new self of mine. I've tried to use that to escape, but in the end, no luck. One time I was persistent in escaping so much, he got really angry. He didn't hurt me or anything, but I didn't like the punishment either. He had a cage brought in and forced my fox form in it. After that, he went into his wolf form. He'd go into the cage and cuddle into me in his fox form. I tried to escape, but the others locked the cage to make sure I couldn't leave. He actually pinned me and lied on me, saying things like "Mine," Or "No one else's," and so on. At the moment, I was in his lap doing nothing. He was doing his paperwork and doing what he calls a little 'cuddle break' every once in awhile. It's as if I'm a charger and he's a phone. Close contact with me, and he feels refreshed. I try to push him away, but who am I kidding. I stand no chance against this werewolf. After the little break he had, Rose came in and went up to his desk. "Sir, you have an Alpha's feast coming tomorrow." Brian looked at her and asked "Who's the planner?" She sets down a card with a moon stamp on it. She then says "That'd be Alpha Denovan, of the Blood Moon pack." Brian smiles and says "Send a more of my interest. It's been forever since I saw Denovan. I wonder if he's met his mate yet. I know he's been waiting anxiously for the longest time to find them." I look at Brian and he smiles. "You'll be going too. I'm sure he'd love to meet you." I roll my eyes and say "The only people I want to meet is Hades, Lucifer, or the grim reaper." He pets my head and says "Come on, you don't mean that." I give him a stern look that says "Does it look like I'm joking?" He sighs and picks me up, hugging me tightly. He then looks at Rose, still hugging me tightly, and asks "What time does it start?" She opens the envelope and she reads it. "The feast will start at 7:30 in the afternoon. There will be many treats and food made by our best cooks in the Blood Moon Pack. If you're interested, please send message of some sort saying that you're coming." Brian nods and hugs me tightly again. I push against him, but it worked as well as my last few attempts. He then sets me down. "We'll get our winter clothes on. I'm sure he won't mind if we dress casually." I start to walk away, only to be lifted up like a rag doll. He carries me to our room. And yes, I said our room. After that last escape, he's been forcing me to sleep with him. He keeps a fridge in his room in case I get thirsty. And there's a bathroom in this room, so that helps too. He always locks the doors. And the only way to unlock it, is the key. However, let's just say he keeps it in the place most people wouldn't dare to touch. Especially me. Anyway, he carries us into the room. It's already almost 10pm, so he thinks it's time to sleep. I yawn and he chuckles. He kisses my forehead and says "Goodnight. See you in the morning." I just said without thinking, "I wish I didn't." He chuckles again, ignoring the insult and hugs me tightly against him. I rolled my eyes and went to sleep.

Le Timeskip~

It was 5:30 in the afternoon and we were about to head to the Blood Moon Pack's territory. The Blood Moon pack's territory was a 1 hour and 45 minute drive from here. Brian puts me in the car and sets me on his lap in the front seat. Blake puts Christian in the back seat. Christian soon yawned and decided to take a nap. Normally, if it was this long of a drive, I would go to sleep. However, I don't want to even try with Brian holding me. I think Brian read my mind as he pushes my head against his chest. "It's going to be a long drive, so just sleep close to me." I sighed and soon went to sleep, reluctantly.

Brian's POV~

I smile and kiss Zack's head. He's so cute, and I love him so much. Blake says while driving "It seems he's warmed up to you a little." I face him and ask "Really?" He nods while driving. "Remember, I know what it's like having human mate. I know what one warms up to you, at least a little bit." I nod and ask "Do you think Zack will ever open up to me and love me back?" He nods. "I think it's a very good possibility. Once humans feel it's useless to try something, or just feel tired of trying, they give up. That's when they really learn how to take in the love you give to them." I nod again. Time passed by and I ended up falling asleep with Zack tightly against me. Once we both wake up, we were at the Blood Moon Pack house. We head inside and look around. The Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack approaches me. He is one of my greatest friends. He gives me a quick hug and says hi to me. He looks down at Zack "You found your mate?! He's so cute!" He hugs Zack. I then ask "So how are you on your mate?" He sighs and says "No luck. You think you can help me mate hunt later?" I nod and he smiles. Zack looks at me and asks "What's a mate hunt?" I smile and pet his head. "A mate hunt is when a lonely werewolf searches a huge area for his mate. The problem with us werewolves is, we don't know what our mate is. We can have vampire mates, werewolf mates, cat shifter mates, and so on." Zack nods and I ruffle his hair a bit. I look at Denovan and ask "So, how many mate hunts have you done the past year?" His ears lower and he says "252." My eyes widen and so does Zack's. "You're really desperate for your mate, huh?" He nods. He then says "I mean, I've only lived for 257 years and still haven't found my mate." Zack's eyes widen more than they were. "Did I hear that right?" I nod and say "Us werewolves live eternally. Well, not eternally, but we heal quickly, as you saw as soon as you met me. And we can only being killed by certain things. Normally stuff only werewolf hunters have access to." Zack nods again and asks "What about me? I don't want to live that long." I just smile and pet his head. "Too bad. I would've turned you into one of us to prevent your death, but now I don't have to." He gives me a look of confusion. "What's that supposed to mean?" I hug him close to me and answer his question. "You're a werefox hybrid. You live forever, just like us." His eyes widen and he tries to escape my grip. I smile and nuzzle into him. "Yup! You're my cute little mate forever!" He struggles in my grasp but soon gives up. I look back at Denovan with his ears lowered. I face him and ask "Want to hold him?" His ears perk up in interest and I smile. "You can hold, hug, and nuzzle into Zack if you'd like." He smiles and takes Zack off me. He thanks me and starts to nuzzle into him with a bright smile. His mood changed from sadness to happiness instantly. Zack doesn't struggle, assuming he probably feels bad for him. I let Denovan hold him as we all head over to the buffet of food. We grab plates and start to grab a variety of different foods made by Denovan's pack, and some from other packs too. Denovan still holds onto Zack, which I don't mind. I grab a plate of food for Zack. I hope he liked the food. It's been a few months now, so I hope I've learned the food he likes. I give him his food as he remains in Denovan's arms. He starts to eat and I sigh in relief. We all eat and talk. After maybe over what I assume to be an hour, Denovan finally releases Zack from his arms. Denovan then says "Thank you for letting me hold your mate, but I want to hold my own mate. After I find them, I'll never let go. I can't go lonely. I just can't." I nod my head and said "Maybe here soon."

Zack's POV~

As they were talking about their whole mate hunt thing, I decided it was a good time to escape. I saw a group of werewolves heading out, so I blend in with them and walk out. I walked around for a bit so that there isn't suspicion. After I get a long enough distance, I run away. Hopefully I find a human society. I'll have to change my look entirely. And possibly keep my name.

????'S POV~

I had enough. I hate them so much. I have bruises on my arms, cuts on my stomach, and blood that trickled down my face like a waterfall. I can't handle this anymore. I'm nothing but a peasant to them... I can't handle them anymore. I take a rope from my drawer, and set it by the window. I tie it to my mattress less bed post and put it down. I climb down the rope and I hear mama and papa fighting. I glance back at the hell hole I lived in. "I hate you papa. I hate you mama." I wish I could find my guardian angel so he can give me a better life...

Brian's POV~

After awhile of talking about the mate hunt, I realize that my own mate is missing. I panic and look all around the pack house in less than 5 minutes. That's how worried I was. Denovan asks "What's wrong?" I look at him fearfully "I can't find my mate anywhere! I can't find my Zack!" His eyes widen and he howls for the rest of the pack. He looks at his pack and uses his alpha tone. "Things have changed. We're looking for Brian's mate. We'll reschedule the mate hunt for tomorrow after noon. But now, we're mate hunting for the Northern Lights pack's future Luna." They all nod their heads and we all head out. You won't get away from me Zack. I won't let it happen. You're mine, and only mine. No one can have you, no one can take you. No one will love more than I do.

????'s POV~

I continue to run away from hell and hope to find a new heaven. I run into the forest and hope I'm not found. As I run in the forest, I run into someone. "I'm so sorry! I wasn't looking!" The male gets up and asks "What's your name?" I gulp nervously. "M-my name is Luca. Luca Winter." He nods and says "Well, we need to get out of here! And quick! Before they find us!" I look at him confused and asked "Who's 'they?'" He sighs and says "You probably won't believe me, but werewolves! They exist! I'm not crazy! I didn't believe them! Or anything like that! Vampire's, gods, demons, and especially werewolves, I never believed them one bit! But a werewolf alpha claimed me to be his mate! I've escaped multiple times, only to get caught! This is another attempt! We'll both start a new life as roommates! We'll both get jobs and make a living off of our skills!" My eyes widen. Was this my guardian angel? The person who would protect me? "Werewolves? I didn't think they'd exist. But, if he's your mate, why do you want to run?" He sighs and says "I want my old life back. The one where I lived alone, happy, going to school. I want that life back, and if I can make a new start with you, I hope we can achieve that." I nod my head. I hear howls in the distance. He has a look of fear on his face. He grabs my hand and says "Let's go." However, we didn't get far. Werewolves surrounded us.

Denovan's POV~

I have my pack surround Zack. Brian runs over to Zack and holds him in a very tight hug. "I was actually scared that I lost you! Never leave my side!" Zack starts to struggle and say "No! I was so close!" Brian hugs him tighter and says "Shhhh. Don't worry. I'll take good care of you, as mates should." Brian starts to nuzzle into his mate and kiss his cheeks. I'm happy he's back with his mate. However, I look back at the other male he was with. I look at him. My face brightens and I look at his eye. A star in his pupil. Just like me. I pick him up and he struggles a bit. Brian looks at me and asks "Is he your?" I smile and a tear falls down my face. I nod. I hold my mate closer to me and he struggles a bit more. We all walk back to the pack house. Once we're there, I finally saw his condition. He's beat up, a lot. I instantly send him to our medical ward. Brian and Zack came too. It was so dark out that we didn't see the condition of my mate. Zack was apparently surprised too. They stood and looked at him through the window as I stood beside him. He was asleep and resting. My pack doctor then said to me "He's I'm pretty bad shape, but there's nothing broken or strained. However, you're lucky he made it here. Any longer and he would've died from blood loss. I nod and smile happy that I found him in time. I let him sleep and I stay beside him.

Brian's POV~

I look at Zack as he looks at Luca. I then ask "So, what did you talk to him about? Anyone you know?" He shakes his head and says "I've never seen him in my life. I wonder why he was in the forest to begin with." I nod and ask "How about you answer the first question?" He sighs and says "I said me and him could run to a new city and have a new start. One with only humans, and no werewolves hunting my ass." I chuckle and hug him tightly. "Too bad. You're mine. And you seem to have forgotten something." He looks at me confused and asks "And what's that?" I smile and pets his ears and tail. His ears lower and he says "Oh..." I chuckle and hug him tightly again. "Don't worry, I'll make you love me eventually." He glares at me and says "In your dreams. I'll find a way to escape. Now that I know death isn't an option." I chuckle. "Yeah. But you need to behave. You keep worrying me with your escape attempts. If it continues, I'll willingly cuff me and you together so that you're always by my side. He sighs and I just nuzzle into him.

Denovan's POV~

I look at my mate as morning rises. I've heard humans get soothed by the feeling of something soft, so I took off my shirt so he can feel my fur. He wakes up and looks at me from the hospital bed we have. I smile and look down at him. I then say to him in a soft tone. "Hi, my name is Denovan. I want to know you more. What's your name?" He looks at me a little scared. "I put my arm on his shoulder, but avoided any bruises. "Don't worry. I'm here for you. Now, can you tell me your name?" He gulps and says "Luca. Luca Winter." I smile and say "A beautiful name." He blushes. I carefully pick him up and lie him on my lap and have his face rest against my chest. "Luca, I'm the alpha of the Blood Moon pack. And I'm so happy I found you." He looks up and asks why. "You're my mate. That mean I'm yours and you're mine. I promise, I'll take good care of you. I won't let anyone hurt you anymore." I look down at him and his eyes look like glass. Tears start to run down his face.

Luca's POV~

I'm so happy. He hugs me gently, avoiding hurting me by not touching my cuts or bruises. I feel so protected. He pets my head as I cry into his bare chest. I found him. I found the one. I found my guardian angel. Please, don't leave me. I don't want to be hurt anymore. As if he read my mind, he says "I'll never leave you. I love you, forever and ever." I hug him back and continue to cry. I love you, my guardian angel.
