Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Skylar's POV: 

Oh my God! Could this man be the mate assigned to me by Moon Goddess? Every werewolf looked forward to finding their mate once they were of age, and I was no exception.

I used to think that Moon Goddess had forgotten me.

I had not expected to meet my destined mate during a life-or -death situation.

I shifted back to my human form and gazed up at him.

The man was tall and handsome.

He was also extraordinarily skilled, which matched the fantasies and expectations I had for my mate.

However, he only wore a severe expression on his face.

"You are injured."

He carried me in his arms and hurried to retreat.

He moved at an incredibly fast pace.

"I'm taking you away from here."

"Thank you."

I pressed my head against his chest and calmed myself by listening to his steady heartbeat.

"What's your name?"

He merely pursed his lips and continued to run, ignoring my question.

I was a little disappointed by his lack of response.

I clutched his sleeve and said nothing.

He brought me to a river and stopped running after making sure that the vampires had stopped following us.

"We need to treat your wound so that it won't get infected."

He put me down and crouched by the water's edge.

"Wait!"

I grabbed his wrist and looked him in the eye.

"Sir, you haven't answered my question yet.My name is Skylar, and I'm from the Black Stone Pack.What about you? Can't you tell me your name?"

"Dylan,"he replied indifferently.

When he noticed the wound on my chest, he hesitated for a while.

Then, he unbuttoned my top and skillfully tended to the wound.

When he poured cold water over the wound, I couldn't help frowning.

My shirt had been pushed down my  shoulders, exposing my fair breasts to the air.

Although he didn't mean to disrespect me by looking at my breasts, I still felt so nervous that my heart started to beat wildly and my cheeks burned in embarrassment.
