Mate. Mate. Mate. I see him. I eye Mate. Handsome too. Mate is so kind. He holds me and strokes my fur. His hands are so soft and kind and I love it when Mate touches me. The more I watch him, the more I don't want to look away. Why is Mate this good? I like Mate. Leaning closer to Mate, I lie down next to him with my head on his lap. I like being with Mate. He's so gentle and kind and wonderful and handsome as well. I watch him and I hear him speak to Alpha.

I can feel her power, but I don't look at her. Only I look at Mate. He's the only one I want and I can feel him. My heart can feel him. I feel the love that my Human and I share with him and I know that Mate makes me stronger. Mate is mine and I will never let anyone have him. Mate will always belong to me and I will never let anyone else hurt him. I will protect him when he can't protect himself. Mate is so beautiful and I love to watch him be himself and his eyes are so pretty.

When he looks away from me and looks at Alpha, I let out a noise. He's quick to turn his attention towards me once more and I make a satisfying noise. I want him to only pay attention to me. Mate is mine and I am his. His eyes are mine and I want him to only look at me, no one else. I won't challenge the Alpha but I will challenge anyone who dares come in between Mate and I. We belong together and no one can ever take Mate from me ever again.

Mate laughs as he strokes my head and I like it when he touches me, even more that I know myself. I don't understand why Mate is my Mate but I don't want to ever let Mate go. He's my Mate. My Human owns him as well but she is mine as well and I've been wanting to tell her that she is strong and with Mate by our side, we will become undefeated. She doesn't know our power, but I do and my Human and I are one and when she knows of our power, she will understand it all.

"You're such a soft one, aren't you?" He asks me. I eye him and cock my head to the side. Of course I'm soft, my body is covered with fur. Mate is a funny one. I like that. I like him. I blink at him which makes him laugh again. The sound is wonderful and I want that Mate laugh all the time. "Do you think she can understand me?" He asks the Alpha but he doesn't look away from me. I hear her walk over here. "Yes, she can. Try to communicate with her, you're the only one who can" She says and then she leaves the room.

She is right about that. Only I will allow Mate to talk to me and only Mate can communicate with me. I may not be able to talk like Humans do, but I can talk in a different way. 'Mate' I ask him in our head. Mate looks shocked when he hears my voice. I lick my nose as I look at him. 'Mate' I try again and he smiles at me. "You're trying to communicate" He mutters to himself, but I did hear Mate. I will always hear Mate.

'Mate' I say once more and he closes his eyes. Trying to find the bond between us. 'I am here' He says in our mind. The bond we share is strong and Mate only makes it stronger. 'Mate. Your voice brought me out. Don't let me leave' I say to him. There is much to explain and not much time. I will soon have to leave and yet I want to stay with Mate. Mate is mine. He nods his head. 'I won't. But, you have to tell me. Is Tatianna still alive?' He asks me inside our mind and I eye him.

Mate opens his eyes and I see the fear in his eyes. Why would Mate feel fear. 'My Human speaks with our mother. Alive' I tell him. He lets out a breath and then pets my head so softly. His hands are so warm and when they touch me, I feel this strange feeling run through me. Only Mate can make me feel this way. 'Your mother?' He asks me. Mate is filled with sorrow and it makes me let out a whimper. But, his hands make me feel better. I want Mate to feel better as well.

'Yes. My Human left our body to speak to our mother. She will return soon enough and when she does, everyone will see they underestimated us. We were always meant for greatness. Death was always her destiny. For without death she could not be reborn' I tell him in our head. Mate will understand it all soon. They all will. The time of greatness is upon the world and my Mate and my Human will be the King and Queen of this world. I will be leading as well. A different Queen. The Wolf Queen of the entire world.

'What do you mean?' He asks me. I eye him as I lift my head from his lap and sit. Mate will soon know it all and his confusion will disappear. 'Death has never been the end, it was always the beginning. My Human heard our mother not long ago. It was a calling and death was always supposed to take her. She was supposed to die to be able to live' I say to him. Then I stand and I walks past him and claw at the door. It opens before me and I run the hallways until I find the very room I've been looking for.
