"Ahh!! Who's there?"Rosalyn felt that something was approaching her in the woods, then an animal jumped out and scared her.
"Rosalyn?"It was a wolf, and it could talk.
"How?...what are you?"Rosalyn tried to keep her distance from this strange wolf.
"It's me, Rosalyn. Leone." the wolf said.
"Leone? You are a werewolf?"Rosalyn said surprisingly.
"Yes, what are you doing in the woods at night? It's dangerous."Leone didn't switch back, the wolf was still talking.
"Cassie, she doesn't feel good. So I came for some herbs, they can only be found under the moonlight."Rosalyn showed Leone the herbs in her backpack. The leaves of the herbs were glowing in the blue light, it's the reflection of the moonlight.
"What about you? What are you doing in the woods? It's not full moon yet."Rosalyn asked.
"uh....I was finding my mate. I smelled her sense a couple of hours ago, and I've been finding my mate". Leone replied. Rosalyn could sense the awkwardness in his words.
"Have you found her?"Rosalyn asked.
"No. I lost track in the woods. I don't know, maybe it's not a 'her' maybe it's a 'him'."Leone was a little frustrated.
"Anyway, it's not safe to wander alone in the woods, let's go back together."Leone said.
"OK."Rosalyn chuckled and agreed.
Leone accompanied Rosalyn to her house and make sure she got home safe before leaving. It was the first time he had felt his mate, although he hadn't foun the one, he decided to go back to the woods the day after.
The west land was a magical place, you can wear bikinis on the beach or ski on the mountain top in the same season. And the second day, Leone was planning to go inside the mountain and see if he could find his mate. When Rosalyn saw Leone the next day, he was carrying ski tools and getting ready to head to the mountain.
"Oh, it looks like you are trying to ski your way to your mate."Rosalyn seemed to be in a good mood. That was the first time she joke.
"Well, it would be better if we are both dressed when we meet, right."Leone smiled and said.
"You might what to take the east path, it's flatter. The south path is steep and easy to have an avalanche."Rosalyn reminded him.
"Sure, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!"Leone thanked Rosalyn and left for the mountain.
Leone was happy that Rosalyn cared about him and reminded him to be careful. She was right, Leone had been in that mountain before, it was just like what she said. But what he didn't know was that there was a mine under the east path and there would be an explosion in the afternoon.
Rosalyn didn't expect the plan would ever work, but when she heard about the breaking news of the avalanche caused by the mine explosion, she thought maybe even God was helping her.
"Leone! Leone!... Leone" Rosalyn looked for Leone on the east path in the mountain. The night had fallen and there was only moonlight in the woods. Suddenly, something moved. Rosalyn ran over and found Leone in the snow unconscious. There was a small cabin on the east path, Rosalyn brought Leone to the cabin and wait for rescue.
"Rosalyn?"Leone was weak, he was shaking by the cold.
"Take off your clothes, you might have hypothermia."Leone's brain was numb, all he knew was Rosalyn taking his clothes off and she took off her's too.
Then she wrapped themselves with her dry clothes and she was holding Leone. He could feel the warmth of her skin, her soft body, and her incense. It smelled like the morning in the forest, clean, cool, and refreshing.
"Hey, Leone, don't sleep!"Rosalyn cupped Leone's face and said.
"...." Leone thought he said something, but he didn't know if he said it out loud.
"What? Leone, what did you say?"Rosalyn asked.
"My wolf told me....."Leone mumbled.
Mate. My wolf said. Leone smiled and he felt secure. He thought he had found his mate.
Finally, they were rescued. Leone recovered soon and woke up in the hospital. The first person he saw, was the one he expected, Rosalyn.
"Are you ok?"Rosalyn asked in a soft voice.
"Rosalyn, you saved my life."Leone looked at her sincerely.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault, I shouldn't tell you to go by the east path." Rosalyn sounded guilty.
"No, no, don't blame yourself, on the contrary, I need to thank you because I finally find my mate."Leone said. Rosalyn looked at him in confusion.
"I think my mate it's you, Rosalyn."Leones' eyes were filling with hope.
"What? That's impossible. Werewolves don't have human mate."Rosalyn denied.
"It's rare but it's possible. I smelled your incense when you were with me in the cabin."Leone gently grabbed Rosalyn's hand and he was afraid that she wouldn't believe him.
"How do I smell like?"Rosalyn looked him in the eyes.
"The forest in dawn."Leones' eyes lightened in obsession.
"Why can't I smell you?"Rosalyn leaned closer to him and asked.
"Give me a chance, and I'll show you."Leone said.
Then Rosalyn kissed him. She couldn't actually smell him, but by kissing his warm soft lips, Rosalyn guessed he must smell like the forest in sunlight.
