She’s not for you

SCOTT POV

Sitting by the shoreline, I lit my third cigarette and scoffed in disbelief. I laid down on the cold sand watching the stars in the sky. There's no moon tonight. The moon goddess should be laughing in tears on the other side of the world as she bestow my miserable fate. How could you be so cruel?

Diana, my destined mate and being a doctor at the same time is like a curse on me. Is the imprint stronger than the anger I've been keeping deep within?

I sighed and closed my eyes when suddenly, I sensed danger in the air. I felt uneasy as I clutched on my chest. Is she okay?

So, what? Why would I care?

My mind kept telling me not to go, but then I already found myself walking back to her bungalow.

On my way there, I furrowed my brows as I noticed a figure standing in the dark.

"Christina? What are you doing here?", I asked as she was standing there alone looking tensed.

"Scott! I didn't noticed you there. I was just here getting some fresh air", she said nervously.

"Getting some fresh air, huh? I'll get going then", I said as she grabbed my arm as I walk past her.

Christina isn't the sentimental type. She'd rather drink with the boys or hang out with her friends if she's feeling down or happy.

"Why don't you join me? It would be nice if we walk together, don't you think?", she asked clasping my hand as I felt her hands trembling.

I felt my heart throb faster then I looked over Diana's bungalow. Something is wrong.

"I'll be back then, I'll just check on something", I said as I tried to remove her hand. But instead, she clasped tightly as she snaked my arm.

"No! Let's go, the.. the ambiance is better in that area", she said stuttering as she pointed at the villa.

Is she stalling me? I stared blankly at her figuring out what she's up to.

"What did you do?", I asked as I stiffened my body.

"Scott… she's not for you. If she dies, the imprint will be gone. Then you and I can be together", she said as she said as her eyes swell in tears.

I pushed Christina away. My aura broke her down like a puppy as she cried miserably. I hate Diana for being a doctor, but I never thought of letting her die for me to remove the imprint. In fact, I never thought of removing the imprint.

I ran towards Diana's bungalow then shifted to my wolf form in all black with a white spot on my forehead over the overwater bridge.

As I approach the balcony, I can already smell blood. I strode inside and saw Diana unconscious on the floor as a black bird flew away from her.

I approached slowly, as my heart weakened seeing her in a terrible state. I sighed in relief knowing she's breathing well. Bloodied and with her clothes torn, I can tell she fought back in human form.

Why didn't she transformed? I cursed myself for not being there to save her or protect her. If I didn't left her earlier today, none of this would've happened.

I changed into human form then carried her tiny body inside her bungalow. I placed her gently on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

I hissed at the fact that I almost lost my delicate Luna. I hissed at the fact that I wasn't there when she needed me the most.

I called for the island staff to get here to clean up and help her. I went outside and changed to wolf form again. The balcony is a mess. I sniffed the floor boards and sensed something different.

Some of the blood was from Diana and some was from the other humans. Maybe her attackers?

My eyes darkened as I sensed that something have left some stench here that's definitely not from a human, nor from a wolf.

**************

It's still dark outside when Diana woke up in her bed. Her clothes were changed and her wounds has been cleaned. However, her body ached as she move. She could hear someone splashing some water on her side, she tried to sit up to look.

"Diana, please don't get up. Take a rest, you are safe now", Emilia said worriedly as she lay Diana down. She carefully rubbed a white wet towel on Diana's forehead, removing a few more dried blood.

"I'm fine now. What happened?", Diana asked as she took the towel from Emilia.

"You were attacked a while ago. Your attackers were already detained. They say Ms. Christina was behind of it all. I'm sorry Diana, if only I could tell what the exact danger you could get into.." Emilia sobbed as she narrated with her hands on her face.

Diana was not surprised to hear that Christina is the main culprit of the attack. Love is dangerous, it makes you do stupid things as she recalled.

"Please, don't cry. It's not your fault Emilia." She said as Diana comforted Emilia. "And the wolf?", she asked.

"A what?", Emilia sobbing and wiped her tears with her shirt.

"Nothing, can you please help me up? I need to go to the bathroom", Diana said as she held her hand with a smile.

"Of course", she said as she obliged.

Diana went to the bathroom and shut the door gently. She stared at her body in the mirror. Her head is wrapped with a bandage. She saw some bruises on her face, on her wrists and a few scratches on her legs. She closed her eyes and touched her neck. She felt disgusted remembering how William kissed it.

After a while, she remembered Scott. She then sobbed lightly as she sat on the floor. 'I thought he can sense when I'm in danger? He still didn't come', she cried softly.

Then she remembered the wolf who came to her aid. It was a black wolf with dark yellow eyes and a scar on its right paw.

"They are real", she said as she sat down hugging her knees.

Meanwhile, Scott arrived in Diana's bungalow as Emilia opened the door.

"How is she?", Scott asked as he noticed Diana is out of bed.

"She's been in the bathroom for half an hour now.", Emilia said worriedly.

Scott walked towards the bathroom door and tried to hear what Diana's doing. He sighed deeply and rested his forehead and fist against the door. 'She's crying', he thought.

"Don't leave her", Scott hurriedly left and shut the door behind him.

Just when Emilia was about to knock at the bathroom door, Diana opened it and held Emilia's shoulder.

"Please help me pack up.", she said.
