I Will Love You,Eternally(Transcending Love Series Book 2)

Chapter 5

Caleb's POV

It's been two days. Two days that our mate was abducted. Two days that we longed for our mate. We are at the peak of the highest area on our land. Standing in our wolf form, scanning every places our power could take us, draining our energy just to find her. We let out our power and let all wolves fear our presence, we let it out up to the neighboring lands. I can sense the wolves lowering their heads, showing their respect to us.

We stood at the cliff towering the vast land of our pack. "I've missed them, man!" Xavier howled in the sky, "I missed them so much!" We didn't get positive feedback, not even one.

My heart ached, I, too, missed them so much. "My sanity is slowly slipping away Xavier" I can feel my consciousness slowly giving in to my wild instinct, it wants to release, it wants to get out, it wants to desperately creep out and take over.

He howled again, our howls can be heard beyond our land. Wolves on patrol, in our land and at the neighboring land, responded, telling us that the pack is on the lookout for our missing mate. And they will keep on looking until they found her.

"We need to find our mate fast!" He whined inside, "or we're on edge of becoming a rogue!" I agreed with him. Without our mate, who knows how long we can keep our sanity in check. Not many wolves can remain sane after the loss of their mate.

We made a last howl to the moon before we run back to the packhouse.

At the palace of King Blake (Southern Kingdom)

The king, Blake, just finished the letter he made to be delivered to the other kingdom. Its been so long and the four kingdoms have long communicated with each other. But the situation is different now. The prophecy was already set in motion. They need to learn that the alpha of the prophecy has made his appearance. And as the descendant of the first werewolf king, we have to fulfill.

A door opens and his queen walks in. Worrisome is evident in her beautiful face. "My King" she called to her mate, she saw the letters on the table, "is that the letters for the other kingdom?"

King Blake touched the letters and then looked at his queen. "Yes" he confirmed, "the earlier they know, the better"

Queen Desiree moved to his mate's side and touched his shoulder, "do you think they will accept it?"

King Blake lay his hand on her mate's hand on his shoulder, "I hope they do" he took her hand and kissed it, "Alpha Caleb needs our help in this coming war" he pulled her to sit on his lap "you know that better than anyone"

Queen Desiree caressed his face, "that's what scares me the most, the other royals are not that fond of following the royal decree. And you know that"

King Blake gave a long sigh, "I know," he took both her hand, "I don't want to engage in war with our kind"

"But what worried me that most are Quincy" there's fear in her face for the gift. The gift that they were supposed to be protected at all cost. "We need to find her Blake, we need to make sure that she is safe and in Caleb's arm"

King Blake embraced his mate, "shhh, we will help them with everything we got my mate, we will"

James' POV

I entered the pack's modern kitchen and asked the wolf in charge to prepare some food. "Put it in a basket and bring it outside," I told the old female wolf.

The old woman smiled and lowered her head and replied. "Yes alpha" she's been serving him since he was a pup.

I smiled back at the old lady who I considered a second mother, then turned around and left the house. My beta greeted me once I landed outside.

"Alpha James" he looked around first before he moved even closer to my face and whispered "It seems that Alpha Caleb's power had even reached here" I stared at him inquiring "howls have heard" answering my silent question.

I run my hand thru my hair, "D*mn!" I cursed. I can tell that my pack instinctively submitted to him with just that simple howls "it seems his power is growing stronger" Rowan didn't like it. Our pack is ours. We both agreed that we didn't like what happened to our members.

Rusi nodded at me, "we need to be careful, he can easily make someone submit to him now."

Being declared as the wolf in the prophecy, he's slowly showing the increase in his power and proving to everyone who he is, and challenging him is futile.

I understand what my beta said. "Tell Agatha to double the spell in her room. Make sure that he can never find her" I gave the order. My face shows seriousness. I will not let her go. Rusi nodded and walked away to carry out my order. "You will never find her again alpha Caleb" I swear it to myself. "Quincy is mine!"

"Here's the food alpha" hearing the soft voice of the old woman reverted my face to normal.

I smile at her and took the basket. "Thank you" I muttered my thanks and walked my way to my beloved.

On my way to the house where I confined her, I had time to think of things. I knew what I did will earn my death once alpha Caleb learned that it was I who took his mate. I just hope my pack will be spared from that death.

But why did I do what I did, because I want her, no, we want her so much. It doesn't matter whether she's the gift or not.

I finally saw the small stone castle in the middle of the forest where no one knows except my beta, gamma, and the witch.

As I got closer to the building memories of the first time I saw her flashes through my mind. The first time I met her at her job. The time she nearly got forced into alpha Simon's pack. And her birthday date with me. I smiled at that memory.

How I kept her safe during those vamps attack. and that painful event where I witness her induction as the luna of alpha Caleb.

I stopped at the front door of the building. "Rowan, what do you feel for her?" I know we both feel something for her, I just don't know if what we feel for her is the same. Rowan being my wolf, I'm sure it was his instinct that was above certain reason, was different from their human partner.

Rowan didn't answer right back. I was about to open the door when he finally answered "obsession" my ears perked at his answer, "when it finally hit me, I was overcome with this obsession to have her as ours, I wanted her, I wanted to claim her to the point that I want to eat her for her delicious scent!" He admitted.

I grabbed the handle of the door, "is it her scent? was our logic clouded by her scent?"

"Maybe," I notice his answer like he was avoiding telling me the truth.

I disregard what he said and closed my eyes and focus again. When I was ready, I opened the door and walked the hallways and stairs up to her room. I took a deep breath before I open the door. When the inside of the room come to my view, I saw her, she's sitting there in the middle of the bed holding her legs up to her body. Her head lifts when she heard the door opened. When she made a move to get out of bed, I quickly closed the door and locked it so she won't be able to escape.

I noticed she had changed her clothes with the one I had asked to be prepared earlier. Something I choose for her. A floral sundress that curved her beautiful body. Admittedly, I just want her to get rid of her ceremonial dress that reminds me that she was mate and luna to someone other than myself.

"Alpha James" she strode towards me, "alpha James, please let me go," she grabbed my arm while pleading.

I just looked at her not listening to her pleas and showed her the basket of food in my hand. "I brought you some food." I walked to a table in the corner. I can feel her staring at my back. "You must be hungry by now" I placed the basket on top of the table and take out its content "I hope you like this" I turned to her, she's still standing there, near the door.

She shakes her head "I don't want to eat" she turned her back on me reached for the doorknob and tried to open it but it won't budge. "I want to go home! Open this door!" She screamed.

"Quincy" I called to her, when she didn't turn around, I walked towards her and turned her around to face me. And as soon as she faced me, she slaps me hard on my face. "Ow!" I touched my cheek she hit. "That's hurt" I never expected her to violent.

"I'm disappointed in you alpha James!" She yelled while she points to my chest. "How could you do this to me?!"

I smiled at her, "I know, you didn't expect me to do this, right, you thought I was a friend, and I am," I grabbed her by her waist and pulled her towards me.

"Let me go!" She screamed as she punches my body, "don't touch me! You are not my friend anymore!" She keeps screaming. Her face was reddened by anger. No, not anger, more like a disappointment. She couldn't believe what I just did.

I didn't listen to her rattling, and brought my face to the nook of her neck, "that is until my feelings turn to an obsession. To have you to myself. To claim you as mine. And I will" I then took a sniff of her. My eyes turned darker when her scent entered my nose. "Sh*t!" I cursed and pushed her a little.

She looked at me bewildered. Her face return to normal, concern is evident on her lovely face now. She has no idea what is happening. To her.

I put a meter distance between the two of us. "Rusi" I quickly mind-linked my beta, as I hold my breath "yes alpha" he replied immediately, "get Agatha here now!" I ordered.

"What happened?" He inquired. He must be wondering why I sound so different when I should be on cloud nine since I was near her.

I blink my eyes a few times, I leaned back on the door panel. "The spell is losing its power. Tell her that Quincy's scent is surfacing" I explained to him and he gets the situation quickly.

"Alpha James" although she is being confined here against her will, she still shows concern to others. "Are you alright?" She raised her hand to touch my face as she walked towards me again.

"Stop!" I raised my voice and motioned my hand for her to stop. "Don't come near me now, or else I might do something you don't like" she saw my eyes shifting from normal to darker. My wolf is trying to surface. Breathing her scent clouded our minds.

She gasped and took a step back. Fear suddenly becomes evident on her face. I wanted to pull her in my embrace and tell her I will never hurt her, but I didn't, because right now, I'm not sure if I can hold myself.

I took a deep breath again and slammed my fisted hand on the door. "It's alright," I said trying to convince her "no matter what, I'm not gonna hurt you Quincy" I looked up the ceiling, silently praying I can hold myself longer "I promise"

After a minute, there's a knock on the door, "alpha James" finally, it's Agatha. I felt relieved as I moved from leaning on the door and opened it. Agatha entered the room. She looked at my appearance, studying my face. She immediately concluded that I am near to losing my control.

She gave a glance to Quincy who is sitting at the end of the bed "you can leave now alpha," I nodded and walked out of the room.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Quincy's POV

I remain sitting on the bed even after alpha James left the room. My eyes are focus on the witch. The witch who I met before. Aside from alpha James, this woman is the only one I met. Alpha James was making sure that I won't be able to ask for any help from anyone.

I watched her walked to the other table on the other side of the room. She takes out some bottles from her bag. As I watched her work over there, a conclusion came up to me. "What are you doing?" Feigning innocence as I asked her. She turned her head to me and smiled.

"Just something to hide the scent of the gift" she shrugged her shoulder and continue mixing some liquids.

My eyes went wide, she knew. "W-what are you talking about?" I averted my eyes trying to stay innocent about it. My heart started to beat faster clasping my clothes, trying to keep myself calm.

She turned around still smiling at me, "your scent as the gift is like a drug to all supernaturals," I looked at the bowl she's holding, "it'll be very dangerous to have them sniffed your scent" she said as she poured the black liquid from the bowl to the floor. This liquid slides to the marking and glow. "Don't worry" I turned my eyes back to her, "this spell will conceal your scent." Now all the marking in the room is glowing. "As well as your aura"

Again, my eyes grew wide from what I hear from her mouth "what do you mean?"

The witch smirked at me, "this spell does not only conceal your scent but also your aura. Your mate won't be able to find you here" she finished and before I can even react, she already walked out to the door.
