Amelia Lovecraft

~~~

One crispy sunny morning as the wind blew through the willows and meadows. Birds chirped to begin its day. It's the day Amelia Lovecraft looked forward to, the day she made her parents proud of. Hmm but my darling Mia, was she content? What did she long for... she hid it deep down in her pure heart for she didn't want it's sorrows to haunt her from achieving her dreams.

"Alright doctors, it's been a great year teaching and practicing medicine with you all. I wish you all the best for the future!" Professor Theodore greeted all the students as he walked out of the university.

"Ugh finally, can't wait to get back home Mia." Selena my batch mate squealed as she hugged me and I returned the gesture. She was my one true friend all throughout my uni life.

"I know, but I'll miss you babe!" I sighed.

"Hey I'm always coming to see you Mia! You know I can't without you." She spoke and I smiled in return. Walking out of the building hand in hand, she spotted her mate, Connor waiting for her outside. Yes, her mate! As werewolves you happen to find your mate at a very young age, and Selena and Connor were lucky enough to meet during high school. Selena was a gorgeous 5'6ft tall girl with mahogany brown hair that reached her shoulders. Connor on the other hand was a warrior of their pack. Selena simply skipped towards her mate who had his arms stretched out to hold her. It was a lovely sight to watch them love birds. I stood at a distance watching them laugh and joke around.

"Hey Mia!" Connor waved at me. "Have you packed everything? Whose coming to take you back to your pack?"

"Dad's coming Connor! And yes I've done all the packing including this little missy's packing too." I replied pointing to Selena as she gave me a smug smile.

"How about we go out for a few drinks tonight, it's our last night here Mia." Selena pouted.

"Sure, I'm in!" I replied.

Well in case you're wondering who I am, I'm Amelia Lovecraft, a member of the Blood Hunters Pack of Northern America. I always adored the pack doctors and it was my dream to be one. I feel so proud of myself to be able to go back home and train with my chief doctor there. It's been three years since I've been away from home and family due to my studies and thankfully with very encouraging parents I've come this far. As you know it life is never perfect. Though I've found my path to lead a good life in the future, I haven't still met my mate. Since I turned eighteen, I was hopeful that I'll meet him at some point of my life but now after all these years of travelling back and forth to my pack and back to my university, I began to learn that "maybe" the moon goddess didn't bless me with a mate. As time went on I learnt to live with that. With the help of Selena I did date a few but, I never really found someone who'd make Heera my wolf and myself happy.

Lincoln Hunters

As the night sky loomed over the North with twinkling stars reflecting on the tranquil waters of the lake. The moon herself shining over the pack as she always does. Tonight was the night to crown the new Alpha, he was mighty and worthy of this throne. Still the fearsome werewolf aches for more. He searched and waited for her but failed, instead found relief from another. Although pleased with a partner by his side, did he want to meet his mate? Does he still long for her arrival just as much as she yearns for his?

"I, Elijah Hunters, alpha of The Blood Hunters Pack would like to announce that my son Lincoln Hunters as your future alpha from this minute on."

I stepped up on the rock where my father stood as he commenced the ceremony earning cheers and howls from our pack and a few other packs who were also invited.

I'm Lincoln Hunters, son of Elijah Hunters. The current alpha of The Blood Hunters Pack the most fierce and powerful pack ever known. No one and I mean no one messes with our territory. After years of training by the borders of Canada, I'm finally back home to take my duties as alpha. Once the ceremony was over I walked down to be met by my beta, the second in command Benjamin and along with Matt and Tyler, the pack's top ranked warriors and also known as my good friends. They stood up tall and bowed their heads by addressing me as their alpha, giving them a curt nod I tapped them on the shoulder as they followed me through the crowd. Everyone bowed down and showed me their respects and I asked them all to head to the banquet and begin the feast. At the end of the crowd I was met with the two lovely ladies and the only reason to make me smile. It was my mother and girlfriend Sarah, I gave my mother a hug and kissed her forehead as she laid her head on my chest.

"Bend down Linc!" She ordered.

I chuckled and bent down to meet my mum's eyes. She kissed me on the cheek. "You should smile more often son. It looks good on you." She said straightening the wrinkles on my shoulders of the shirt.

"Sure mum!" I nodded.

Then my eyes directed to the love of my life, she stood there looking at me all the while, as I walked up to her, I lifted her up and our lips connected. She let out a moan as her arms held on to my neck. From the side I eyed my mother just walk away, she wasn't very pleased when I told her about my relationship with Sarah. I felt down and depressed when I never had a chance to meet my mate, that's when Sarah came along she was Benjamin's little sister. She trained a few times with Benjamin and that's when she caught my attention. She helped through my vulnerable stages without a mate and from then on Sarah has been a very special girl in my life, probably something more than a mate. Right now I pray to the goddess, that my mate never shows up because Sarah is all I want.

My wolf Kai has been really quiet when it concerns Sarah, compared to the domineering wolf that he is, he hasn't even made an effort to communicate with her wolf. I do see the part where he still longs for a mate but I'm done waiting for a mate who'll never show up.

"That's what you think!" Kai snapped inside my head. I chose to not argue with him now so I joined my pack for dinner.

Amelia Lovecraft

"I feel so excited to be going back home!" My wolf Heera spoke brightly.

"I know, it's been more than six months since we've been home.."

"Running through the fields... oh Mia, I can't wait!" She exclaimed.

"You can run all you want babe, now let's get to Selena." With that I drove to the club to meet my friend.

I reached the club, where the music was blasting in your ears and luckily Selena had already arrived and reserved a place for us. She waved towards me from the corner of the club so I walked up to her. The club was mixed with us werewolves and humans. The humankind were completely oblivious of our existence, which made it easier for us to mingle in their world.

After meeting up with Selena and Connor, we had a few drinks and laughed at the silly jokes Connor was making. About an hour after that Connor excused himself to the washroom, Selena shifted closer to me...

"So Mia I know it's a sensitive topic, umm.. are you hoping to find your mate once you get home?" Selena asked with a slight pitiful gaze. She hardly talked about the topic in order to not make me feel down. Now that she asked I realized she was concerned with my future so I gave a reassuring smile.

"You could only hope Selena. I waited way too long for him." I sighed stirring my lemon drop martini. Even though I've travelled back to my pack twice every year, I never really had the luck.

"I'm sorry to bring it up Mia." She squeezed my hand.

"I'm fine.. really." I simply replied.

"No matter how much you tell yourself that Mia, I know a part of you longs to meet our mate. Let's hope he's out there somewhere." Heera pondered.
