"Lorenzo is still asleep correct?" His father said to his wife. She nodded her head and ate the food that was before her.

"That's good because if he was awake it would ruin the plan that involves his mate," His father spoke as he shoved food into his mouth.

"Do you really think it's a good idea to kill off his mate? I mean what if she is trying to find him as we speak then what will we do if she shows up at our doorstep and demands to see him?" His mother worriedly spoke.

"That won't happen we are too deep in the forest, she is a human with no special abilities. Our warriors will rip her to shreds if she steps onto our land," He said.

"I still have a bad feeling about this whole situation, I mean what if someone tried separating me from you?" She said while placing a hand on his cheek.

"Then I would rip them apart if someone took you away from me, you are my mate," He said harshly as he brought her face closer to his.

"But don't worry about any of this my love just eat and our plan would work accordingly," He kisses her cheek and stands up to place his plate in the sink.

*A few days later*

Groggily waking up Lorenzo yawns as he sits up and looks outside to see the night. Heading to the bathroom he does his business and comes out in a towel.

He sees clothes on his bed and doesn't question it as he smells his mother's scent that lingers in the room. Changing into the new pair of clothes he heads downstairs when he sees his parents and an unknown female sitting at the dining table.

Kissing his mother on the cheek and pats his father's back he grabs a plate of food. He sits far away from the woman and eats his food.

The unknown woman glares at the side of his head as he didn't even acknowledge her. She clears her throat and smirks as she sees him looking at her from the corner of his eye.

"My name is Harper and you are?" Harper questions him. Lorenzo looks at her, she was a pale blonde woman whose beauty couldn't compare to his Emilia.

She had brown eyes and looked as if she was scheming something behind those eyes of hers. He knew she couldn't be trusted so he would try to stay far away from her as possible.

But seeing as she is here in his home then she must be close to his parents and that would make it difficult to avoid her.

Squirming under his gaze she nervously looks at his parents who were talking amongst themselves. "I don't care," He mumbles as he grabs his plate and heads to the kitchen.

She huffs and stands up to follow him, she grabs his arm, "But you should care." She pouts at him and he pulls his arms away from her, "I have a mate so be respectful or I won't hesitate to put you in your place."

He growls at her and bumps her shoulder with his as he walks past her. "Now that my stomach has had food I want to get my mate out from the lab as soon as possible. So when I come downstairs warriors better be ready to go to war with me," He says as his eyes flash black.

His parents gulp as they see his retreating figure and they look at each other. Silently arguing with each other they didn't notice that he has come back downstairs and is impatiently waiting for them.

"Where the fuck are the pack warriors? Do you think this is a fucking joke, my mate could be dying and here you both are having a petty argument!" He yells and slams his hands on the table which breaks in half from his brutal force.

They flinch as they see the fury in his eyes, "W-we apologize son but you can't go." His mother speaks out.

"And why the fuck not?" He questions as he narrows his gold orbs at her. She squeaks and hides behind her mate.

"Because it's too soon-" His father says but is cut off by Lorenzo yanking him from his collar. "Listen here old man I don't care if it's too soon I'm going to get my mate out of that hell-hole," Lorenzo growls out.

He shakes and takes deep breathes to calm himself down before he regrets killing his father. Gaping at him his father stutters out, "O-okay but you have to take Harper since she is a top warrior of our pack."

"Fine, as long as she stays the fuck away from me I don't like her touching me. I have a mate and I respect my mate to not give any females attention besides her." Lorenzo says and glares at Harper.

His father nods and Lorenzo pushes him away. "Now tell the pack warriors to pack supplies as it is a two-day trip to the lab and two days back," Lorenzo commands.

Walking outside his father repeats Lorenzo's words and about half an hour passes by and the pack warriors are standing in a line waiting for commands. Lorenzo stands at the doorway with a proud smirk as he sees how fast it was to have the warriors stand before him.

"Whenever you're ready Lorenzo you may command them as you wish," His father said.

Completely ignoring his father he looks towards the warriors and addresses them, "You must be prepared some lives may be lost as the guards there are armed with weapons. But this is all for a good cause because I get to have my mate in my arms so sacrifices must me made."

They nod their head and follow him to the end of their territory. Their figures grow smaller and smaller the more they walk.

His parents look to each other in worry hoping that his mate is dead so he can have strong pups and continue their legacy.

•_________•

*Two days later*

Stoping a few meters away from the lab Lorenzo looks at the warriors who held a determined facial expression.

"Half of you shift into your wolf forms and half of your stay in your human forms to blend in. Five of you follow me and those in wolf form to scout the perimeter," Lorenzo commands.

They nod their head as they get into position, Lorenzo glances around finding it odd that there were no guards guarding the building. He felt as if something bad happened and he hopes Emilia is safe.

Slowly but surely he crept along the edge of the building and put his ear against the metal door. Hearing nothing he signals the warriors to follow after him, sadly Harper was one of the ones who choose to follow him.

Rolling his eyes he broke the doorknob into pieces and push the door open. It creaks and shows that the lights were flickering on and off.

Swallowing the lump in his throat he stepped inside and felt the warmth of Harper on his back. She was so close so he turns around and pushes her away.

He glares at her and continues walking through the hallways. Their soft breathing was the only sound in the eerily quiet building.

Smelling blood Lorenzo stops and puts a hand behind him to them know that someone was injured. Poking his head at the corner his eyes widen at the sight before him, there were bodies thrown everywhere.

Missing limbs and heads loose on the ground. Blood splattered the walls and floor, he walks forward not believing the sight before him.

He now understood why there were no guards outside as they were all here dead. He notices some of the scientists who would inject him with unknown liquids were the most unrecognizable people there.

Harper followed him and almost threw up at the sight, it was gruesome and she couldn't believe someone could do this. Gagging at the smell she grabs Lorenzo's arm, "Where is your mate...could she possibly be dead?"

Growling he turns to her, "My mate is not as weak as you think." He glares at her and speed walks to get to the cell where he knew her father always locked her up in.

More bodies were slumped against the walls as blood was everywhere, he wanted to find out how this happened. His heartbeat quickens as he thinks the worst, Emilia could be injured or worse dead.

He blinks away the unshed tears that cloud his vision. No, he won't think negatively, putting on a blank face he turns to the hallway where he knew Emilia would be at.

A faint smell of her scent lingers at a certain door, sure he smelled her scent the moment he walked in but now the scent is stronger. The smell of her blood mixed with the scent of roses had him worried so he started running to the door.

The warriors followed him and speed up their pace as they noticed he ran to a door. Slamming open the door they gasped at what they saw.

Emilia's father was dead, the color drained from his body as bruises and cuts coated his body like a second skin. Her name was carved in his stomach as dried blood was pooled around his body.

Red marks around his wrists showed that he struggled to break himself free but failed. Overall it smelled horrible in the room as his body was slowly rotting each second that passes.

Lorenzo stared, he really hoped he didn't see Emilia the same way every single person in this lab was left like. Clearly, someone had a motive to do this, they were angry and he wanted to know why.

Question after question popped up into his mind, but the main question was where was Emilia?

Instantly his eyes snapped to her father's dead body and he got his answer. He knew who slaughtered all the people, it was Emilia he was sure of it.

He couldn't blame her she must've snapped but he wanted to make sure she was okay. She could be anywhere right now, his mind was going a mile a minute trying to think of places where she could have gone.

A hand that was placed on his arm snatched him out of his worried mind. "Hey, she is not here let's just head back home yea?" Harper cooed as she rubbed his arm.

He closed his eyes in annoyance, "Get your arm off me before I rip it from your body." She slowly detaches her hand away from him and crosses her arms against her chest.

Glaring at her he scans his eyes over the four other people who were in the room. A lightbulb went out in his mind as he thought of their house that was in the woods.

She must have gone there, he knew her like the back of his hand. Grinning he rushed out of the room and went out of the lab.

They followed him out and saw that he was heading to a two-story house that was up ahead. Lorenzo furrows his eyebrows as he sees the warriors in their wolf form growling at something.

Squinting his eyes he makes out the figure of Emilia growling back in her tiger form. His eyes widen and he runs faster.

"You fucking touch my mate your heads will be off your body in a split second!" Lorenzo yells. Emilia perks her head up and sees Lorenzo running towards her, she hums happily.

She runs towards him and jumps, shifting mid-air and tumbling her body on top of his. They fall to the ground as she peppers kisses all over his face as he holds her body close to his.

They completely forget about the people around them as they hold each other close. "I missed you mate," Lorenzo grumbles as he kisses her neck.

She giggles and cups his cheeks and kisses his nose, "I missed you too Enzo." He softly smiles at her and roams his eyes over her figure.

He gasps and puts his hands over her bottom and makes her wrap her legs around his waist. She chuckles in confusion as she didn't understand why he did that.

His eyes were black as he glares at the pack and they turn around quickly. He moves hair from her face and cups her cheek, "You're naked and only I'm allowed to see you like that."

She gasps and looks down while she covers her chest from his prying eyes. He smirks, "Don't worry soon you won't even be embarrassed about your naked body."

She hits his chest, "Shut up." She mumbles as her face turns red and hides her face in his neck.

She wraps her arms around his neck and snuggles him. "As much as I love this, you need to put on clothes so we can leave. And you are going to tell me why everyone is dead in the lab," Lorenzo says while raising an eyebrow.

Emilia groans as she feels him stand up and walk to the house. "Do I have to tell you, it's a bit embarrassing," She pouts.

"Yes, now stop complaining," He chuckles as he kisses her forehead. Sitting her down softly on the bed he grabs her clothes and places them on her lap.

"Put that on so we can pack our stuff so that we can have outfits to choose from when we get to my mom and dad's pack," He says and turns around to give her privacy.

Her eyes light up at the mention of his family so she hurries up to dress so she can ask him questions. Jumping on his back she kisses his neck, "Speaking of your family how did it go? Do they look different? Is their house big or small? Are-"

Putting a hand over her mouth he stops her from asking more questions. "Come down Lia I will tell you all about it when we start packing," He chuckles.

Nodding her head she jumps off his back and gathers clothes from her dresser. Folding them neatly on the bed she turns around to ask him to get her a bag but he grins as he stands there with one in his hand.

She smiles and thanks him while grabbing the bag and placing her clothes in. She grabs the straps and looks at him, "You don't know how much I've missed you Enzo, you were always on my mind."

He pulls her body flush to his and kisses the top of her head, "It pained me to not by your side, you don't know how many times I've wanted to turn back around and be in your embrace. But now we are here together and I'm never separating from you again."

"I don't want to be separated from you either, you're my mate and my other half. I would rather be stuck on an island with my father than to live without you," She whispers as she caresses his cheek.

He leans into her touch, "Can I kiss you? I've been wanting to do that since I saw your cute self." She laughs, "Yes go ahead and ruin the moment why don't you."

He just smirks and grabs her hips, "Oh so you don't want the kiss then?" Furiously shaking her head she grabs his cheeks and places her lips softly over his.

Sparks erupt as they feel their lips mold together in sync, they both smile as they realize it's their first real kiss. Lorenzo puts his hand in her hair and pushes her body closer.

She moans as she feels his tongue lick her bottom lip asking for entrance. She obliges and opens her mouth to let him explore around.

The kiss is passionate, they were showing each other how much love they held for each other. Detaching his lips away from hers to breathe, Lorenzo places his forehead on hers.

They softly pant as they look at each other with grins, love was apparent in their eyes. He places a few more kisses on her soft lips as she giggles.

"You're mine, all mine," He possessively states as he snuggles into her body. "Yes, I'm all yours and you are all mine," She said and plays with his hair.

He hums happily and kisses her neck, pulling away he intertwines their hands together. "Let's go to my room so I can pack some clothes too," He says and leads them out of her room to go to his.

She grins as the sparks where their hands connect makes her know that all this is real, that Lorenzo is by her side again. Walking into his room they didn't notice the figure that lies on his bed.

Clearing her throat Harper openly glares at Emilia when she notices that they are holding hands. "Babe who is this?" She questions as she gets up to place her hand on his arm.

He looks at her with disgust and swipes his hand back, Emilia glares at the blonde woman who dared to touch her mate.

"And who the fuck are you to touch my mate like he is yours to claim?" Emilia spats as she gets in front of Lorenzo. The latter gapes at her as he never saw this side of her before.

"I'm the girl who will have his pups," Harper smugly states thinking that she can say anything she wants without suffering the consequences.

Oh, but how wrong she is, Emilia is not the type to have someone push her around. Emilia grins devilishly and she turns to Lorenzo, "Enzo did she see the people in the building?"

He looks at her in confusion and nods his head, she smirks at his answer and looks towards the woman.

"Do you want to end up like those slaughtered people in the lab? I can make that happen if you like, I mean, after all, I was the one who killed them all," Emilia says as she steps closer to Harper.

Harper's eyes widen as she processed her words, there was no way this girl did all that. "You're bluffing," Harper snapped.

Quirking an eyebrow Emilia smirks, "Oh is that so, then should I demonstrate what I did to them to you?"

Harper got nervous as she saw how serious Emilia was being and looked towards Lorenzo. He wasn't even looking at her and instead was staring at Emilia with awe.

"You won't really kill me too right?" She gulps. Emilia smirks and extends her claws from her fingers to prove her point, "I'm dead serious, and if you step out of line I'm killing you on the spot."

Harper nods and steps away, "Now get out of my mate's room you don't even belong in here," Emilia says.

Scrambling out of the room Emilia slams the door behind Harper. She turns around to see Lorenzo smirking at her, "Were you jealous?"

He teases as he sees her cheeks turn pink, "Yes, she was acting as if she was yours. It made me angry, has she done this before?"

"Yes, unfortunately, but I have been shrugging her off. I was so close to killing her, she has been getting on my nerves." Lorenzo said as he brought Emilia in a hug.

"Don't worry I will take care of her so she won't bother you anymore," Emilia said while placing a kiss on his cheek.

He kisses her neck and hugs her tighter, not wanting to let her go from his grasp. "You have to pack your clothes Enzo," Emilia says.

He shakes his head in a no motion, "If you don't pack your clothes you won't get no kisses." Emilia taunts.

Pouting at her he speaks, "Fine but I better get five kisses when I'm done." She laughs, "How about a makeout session instead?"

Having a small smirk on his face he nods at her answer.

*Off-topic but this is what I imagine as he smirks.😂*

He pulls away from her and starts throwing his clothes in the bag not caring if it's sloppy. Emilia rolls her eyes and stops him from making it messier.

"This is how you fold clothes and you have to put it neatly in the bag," Emilia spoke as if she was talking to a toddler. She showed him how to do it as he copied her movements.

After a few minutes which felt like ages, they were done. "Finally I thought we were never going to finish, " Emilia gasps out as she plops on the bed.

Lorenzo chuckles and throws his body over hers and cuddles her. "Kiss?" He pouts.

Giggling she pecks his lips a few times and bites on his bottom lip which emits a small groan from him. "Don't be a tease," He rasps out.

She hums as she continues attacking his lips between her own. They continue for a few more minutes before disconnecting their lips.

"I could kiss you all day but we have to head back to the pack," Lorenzo mumbles as he runs his finger over her bottom lip.

She bites his finger, "Ugh fine Enzo but a few more kisses?" He caves in as he sees her doe eyes looking at him with admiration.

Walking out of the house hand in hand they lead the pack of wolves who follow their tail. Lorenzo shifts in his wolf form so Emilia can take a nap on his back.

She snuggles into his soft fur and sighs in bliss. She has missed him, it was painful not being by his side as he literally makes up half of her soul.

To her, he was her knight in shining armor, but that doesn't mean she couldn't be his too. The moon goddess smiled as she sees the two mates were finally reunited.

She did a good job of pairing these two souls together. She knew they would be inseparable, nothing in this world could tear them apart.
