CHAPTER 2

my companion.

My brother Nick and I were discussing packs and rogues while I was driving to pick him up from school. I thought about the personality and appearance of my future partner, and the different ways I could show her how much I loved her. She would find a way to fulfill all of her objectives. To the hilt, I will spoil her.

I laughed.

She sighed, "I'm 22 and still haven't met my soul mate.". Around the age of 18, reports of werewolves begin to circulate. Yes, I am a werewolf, but I am also the Alpha King, the King of all werewolves, the Ares Kings. I just want to find my soul mate as soon as possible because I miss her so much. I long for her to complete me, to love me, to hold and kiss me.

Nick was aware that I was there to meet him as soon as I arrived at the school. I stepped outside the car after that. After a brief delay, he came and grinned at me, and I did the same.

"Listen, criminal activity has been discovered nearby. Because of this, I implore you to alert any nearby packs and assume responsibility for your own and others' safety. My brother Nick helps me out with all of my responsibilities.

"Yes, Ares, I would," he replied solemnly.

Additionally, these rogues are far more powerful than the regular ones. Which is suspicious, so warn all the nearby packs.

".

"Fine.

I'll make everyone aware.

A nod was made.

I felt someone staring at me as I was speaking to him, so I spun around to see the most stunning girl I have ever seen. She has the prettiest shade of blue eyes, with long, silky hair that immediately drew me in. Her soft pink lips were so darn seductive. She had delicate features and all the right curves in all the right places. She was wearing a long, black top and a pair of faded, possibly from excessive use, blue skinny jeans. But one could not escape her beauty. Honestly, she was so beautiful. She kept glancing my way. She was emitting the most amazing vanilla and rose aroma, which I noticed when I took a breath. My wolf Bryce started yelling "Mate" in a joyful tone. She started to run away from me as I started to walk in her direction as soon as she saw me coming. She was supposed to run toward me, not away from me, but before I could even stop and think, my feet were carrying me in her direction.

I was about to pull her back when someone pulled me away. I roared in fury, but held back from punching the person when I realized it was Nick.

I gritted my teeth and said, "What do you want, let me go?". When I thought someone was stopping me from going to see my partner, I became furious.

Relax, Ares. She is made of flesh and blood. You frightened her. He spoke quietly.

My rage lessened a little as I realized he was right, and I started to take deep breaths. Because we felt like we might be scaring our partner, we were both depressed. I would love her if she were a human even though she was. She is mine, so I would never leave her or hurt her.

I utterly regretted and expressed my disappointment, saying, "What now? I scared my beautiful mate.".

I advised, "You go talk to her, be her friend, and then tell her the truth.".

Where should we begin, then?

You start a brief conversation after tracking her scent. Don't scare her by letting your wolf run wild.

Maintain your decorum.

Also, take a deep breath. It'd be fine, I promise. "All right?" he questioned.

Okay," I said as I patted his shoulder.

".

He nodded briefly and then turned to leave.

I took several sniffs, following my friend's incredible scent. It led me to a store selling ice cream. It might, I suppose, work out for the best. I took a deep breath, entered, and ran my hand through my hair. My sweet partner was sitting there, looking down. I started toward her, then stopped and stood across from her as I got closer to her. She looked up with fear in her eyes, and her heart started to beat faster. My girlfriend worries that I'd hurt her. I made a flimsy growl sound. I wouldn't hurt her, and neither would anyone else. I'm thinking about letting her see that I won't hurt her. I started.

"Hey. I uttered, flashing my biggest smile, "I'd like some ice cream. Her eyes widen, and her heart begins to beat more quickly. I smiled even wider as I speculated that I could be to blame for her negative emotions.

"Hi. Her voice is silky smooth and as sweet as honey, and she asked softly, "What would you like to have?

Her voice reassured and relaxed me.

Would you have any recommendations? I questioned.

to better hear her sweet, honey voice.

I'm totally baffled.

I beaming.

Her surprised expression was quickly covered up.

You might want to try the Oreo one, she suggested.

".

Anything else. I said, "I'm not a huge Oreo fan. In spite of the fact that it was false. I was only eating Oreos because I wanted to hear her voice even though I love Oreos.

Okay, what about dark chocolate or Nutella, she asked.

I spoke without giving it much thought.

"Okay.

The one with the dark chocolate will do. I smiled amiably.

Before adding two scoops of ice cream to a cone, she quickly nodded.

Her beauty had me in awe.

She handed me, and the instant our hands came into contact, sparks started to fly. I grinned at that. She quickly withdrew her hand, acting as though it were on fire, and I scowled at her action. but stated and disregarded it.

I responded by taking cash out of my wallet and giving her more than she asked for when she asked how much for this.

She gave me the extra money I had given her, stating, "This is extra. ". She is trustworthy, which I value and have taken note of.

Consider it.

It's a tip, I said.

She appeared to be about to argue more when a girl entered the room and took her money. She pushed her chest out and struggled with her fake eyelashes. That's pretty desperate, in my opinion, I thought.

".

The way that girl said, "Thank you, sir," in an overly sweet voice and with a seductive-looking smile made me cringe. When I focused on my mate and decided to ignore the other woman, my wolf howled in delight as I noticed a hint of jealousy in her eyes. In both of our eyes, she fixed her attention on me. My hand felt wet, but I didn't pay it any attention because I was fixated on the most gorgeous shade of blue. I was annoyed that they had cut off our conversation when someone cleared their throat. By pointing at my hand, she awoke us both from our trance. My ice cream was starting to melt as I followed her pointer. I lifted my head, grinning

pitifully. I sat down in the booth she indicated was empty after she made the motion.
