Alpha Luka And His Human Mate

Victoria's pov

"NOOOOOOOOO!!!" I shouted as I dived down, sliding on my chest just in time to catch his hand.

Those years of track in high school and college actually paid off, but I could already feel the bruise forming on my chest. I grabbed him with my other free hand after bracing myself so I didn't slide off the cliff with him. I groaned as we slipped a little, and I couldn't believe how heavy he was.

I peered over the cliff to see him unconscious, making him heavier and harder to hold. I realized that he must've hit his head when I grabbed his hand. I slowly pulled him up over the edge, ignoring the shock of pain that ran through my chest.

Yep, it's bruised.

After successfully pulling him on flat land, I laid beside him to catch my breath. I felt like I ran a marathon as my chest rose and fell rapidly. However, I didn't mind since I saved him. I took a glance at him, seeing how peaceful he looked in his unconscious state.

There was blood at the back of his head so I concluded that that's where he took the blow. If he had jumped instead of stepped off the cliff, maybe his head wouldn't have gotten hit.

But if he had jumped, maybe I wouldn't have caught him.

‘Well what now?’, I thought as I pushed myself up on my elbows so I could get a better look at him. I pondered on whether to take him to the hospital or not, but unlike any sane human being, I was skeptical about the idea.

After the little encounter I had with him, I think I knew that he wouldn't like that very much. And there wasn't anything major wrong with him physically, so it wouldn't be that necessary. I'm a nurse after all, so I could  treat his head and send him off good as new.

Home it is then.

I spent almost half an hour just getting him to my car. It was not easy to carry a fully grown 200 pound man, and I tried as much as possible to avoid dragging him so he wouldn't get hurt and dirtier.

Imagine waking up to find his clothes gone in a stranger's house--definitely not appealing.

The journey home was somewhat heart wrenching as I thought about all the possible reasons why Luka would try to kill himself. He looked like one of those people who had everything together, but as they say, it's always the ones that seem like they have it all together who's hurting the most.

The effort to get him up the stairs was rendered pointless seeing that it was much harder than I thought it would be, so our guest had to settle for the couch.

I sat on the couch across from him just staring for about 20 minutes. My heart hurt for him when he shifted a little with a pained expression on his face. I had no idea what was happening in his life, but I oddly had an urge to erase it. I hated that I couldn't make it better in that moment--strange ,since he was just a stranger.

I sighed deeply, realizing that it was getting late and exhaustion dawned on me. Guessing that he wouldn't be waking up anytime soon, I decided to take a shower and wash this horrible day off me.

The warm water beat against my back in a perfect massage, and I could feel all the tension, stress and pain slowly lifting. The shower was lovely, and I realized that it was exactly what I needed. I hopped out feeling very refreshed and much better than before as I dried my hair and mumbled a song. But as if the universe couldn't grant me peace, I heard a sudden loud crash downstairs, causing me to quickly make my way to see what had happened.

The sight in front of me had my mouth falling to the ground in utter shock. Luka was up and fuming, and I could literally see the steam radiating from him.

It seemed as if he remembered everything, and he was not happy about it. But I couldn't just make him die. Yes he's a stranger, but his life is valuable. All lives are.
