Alpha Jacob Collins.

The man of many nightmares is standing in front of me. He didn't look like a thousand-year-old man. He looked to be in his late twenties. His blue eyes felt like I was staring into my soul. He was cold, he had no emotion coming off him.

"T-there is a young boy here, um.." I didn't know what to say. I was stuck. I never thought I was be in the presence of such a man of great horror. 

"I know."

"What? What do you mean you know?" I couldn't believe what I was saying to such a person.

"I killed him."

My blood ran cold. I finally began to realize what was happening around me. I was in the middle of the snowy wood with a man of many nightmares and a dead body around me. But, I felt safe and it scared me. Why was I feeling this way? My mind wondered to what he was feeling. I look to him to see his eyes turn a midnight black.

I ran. I turned around running as fast as I could. The snow and heavy coat slowing me down. I felt a pair of big hands grab my waist and pull me to their chest. All I felt was warmth and love. I couldn't believe what my body was telling me. The notorious Alpha Jacob Collins is my mate. I screamed, hoping that someone my mother or someone had heard my pleas. I could tell he had felt it too. His body tensed behind me. I turned my head to see him lost in thought. He was thinking the same as I. How could someone like him have a mate.

"No! Please! Let me go, please. I want to go home. I'm sorry I came here it won't happen again." The tears began to flow down my face. I was scared. I didn't want him as my mate.

"Awe Elizabeth Roth, how could I let you go when you are my mate?" His voice dark, it made me feel uneasy. I just wanted to lay in bed and cry. The one time I wonder away something has to happen.

"H-how do y-you know my name?" He turned me around to look me in the eye, still holding me tight in his arms. 

"How would I not know the name of the Alphas daughter," Jacob said with a dark laugh.

"Please," I say in a whisper. 

"No. You are mine now. You belong to me." Jacob said as pushed his head into my neck taking a deep breath of my scent, hearing a moan escape his lips. I started to push on his chest. "Please just let me go." I try to get out of his grasp.

I feel him losses his grip on me and I see his hand grab something from his pocket. A needle. He pushed me to the ground and got on top of me pinning me down to where I couldn't move. He held my arms above my head. My exposed wrist and back of my head feeling the cold. I watch as he lowers the needle to my neck.

"Please. HELP!" I scream out. I feel a pinch in my neck and watch him smile. My body began to feel heavy and my vision blurred. I feel my head begin to feel heavy. 

"You're mine Elizabeth." 

Jacobs POV ~

I was walking close to the bored of the woods. I had a young male come on my land a few days ago. I began to walk to the area to see if anyone else dared to step into my land. I walk to the circle to find a girl bent over the dead body of the boy. I stepped behind the trees so she wouldn't see me. I watched her jump back in horror. I chuckle to myself. Weak, I thought, couldn't handle a dead body. As she turned I saw her face. She was the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Her thick brown hair was braided in the back making her green eyes stand out even more. She had boots and a long dark green coat on. She was beautiful. Her body was hidden under the heavy coat. For some reason, it had me angry that her body was hidden from me. I stepped from behind the trees only for her to look at me. She was scanning me over with horror-struck on her face. I decided to say something.

"You know its very rude to pass onto peoples land without permission."  

She looked shocked that I actually spoke.

"Who are you?" Her voice was like honey, soft and smooth.

"I believe you know who I am." She must be joking? I knew who she was. I've been watching her. She was the Alphas daughter. She shook her head and tried to back away. 

"No? You don't? I thought everyone knew who these woods belong to?" 

She must know who I am. Everyone knows. I know the stories. I hear what people say about me, but no one has ever seen me. I keep myself hidden in these woods.

She was speaking and pointing at the young man dead in the snow. 

"I know."

"What do you mean you know?" She was shocked.

"I killed him," I state blankly. Why was I telling her so much? I don't tell anyone anything. She was scared, she turned around the tried to run away. I ran after her. I grab her by her waist and pulled her in my chest. Then I felt it. She was my mate for sure. I never thought I would have a mate. Let alone a very beautiful one at that.

"No! Please! Let me go, please. I want to go home. I'm sorry I came here it won't happen again." The tears began to fall down her face.

"Awe Elizabeth Roth, how could I let you go when you are my mate?" I felt her body stiffen under me as I said her name.

"H-how do y-you know my name?" I loosened my grip and turned her body towards me. Fuck, she was beautiful.

"How would I not know the name of the Alphas daughter," I say with a laugh. My laugh scared her. I knew she was going to try to leave me. I pin her down on the ground getting on top of her. I put her arms above her head and held them down. I put my head in her neck, taking in her sent.

"Please. HELP!" She screamed out. It made me mad that she wanted to leave me. I take my hand away and grab the needle and put it in her neck. I feel her body start to go limp. Once she was completely nocked out I stood up. 

"You're mine Elizabeth," I say as I know she couldn't hear anymore.

I mind linked my Beta Ryan to bring the horse-drawn carriage. After a handful of minutes, Ryan had arrived. 

"Jacob what the hell are you doing." Ryan rushed off his spot and came running to me. I grabbed him by his throat. 

"You will not talk to me or your future luna that way." I hissed as I dropped his grasping body to the cold snow. Ryan looked back at me with wild eyes. Getting up and opening the door to the carriage. I gathered Elizabeth in my arms and stepped up into the carriage. I place her down and look at Ryan. "She is my mate." Is all I said. Ryan closed the door and went back to his spot maintaining the horses. I felt the jerk of the horses starting to run. After a few minutes we pulled into the castle, a thick layer of fog surround the castle. It always had. It is always dark and gloomy around the castle. Once we had made a stop, I pulled Elizabeth's body into my arms and carried her into the castle. No one lived here but me. Ryan followed behind. I laid her down on the couch in the sitting room.

"What are you going to do with her?" He asked from standing a few feet back.

"I want to know what she knows." 

"What do you mean?" Ryan pushed on. 

I rolled my eyes and picked her up and began to carry her down to the prison. 

Ryan yelled from the sitting area "Why are you taking her to the prison?" he seemed very confused.

"I told you. I want to know what she knows. Till then I don't know what she is capable of." I say disappearing towards the prison. I walk the length of the cells seeing prisoners hiding in corners once seeing my presence. Others lay dead. I walk to the next open cell and clasp her wrist into the chains. 

"Keep an eye on her. Don't touch her." The guards nod and lock the cell. As I walk away I hear the faint call of her voice.

"Jacob?" Her voice was weak and small. I kept walking telling myself that I would worry about it tomorrow. I didn't have time for a mate. I didn't need one, all she would do is get in my way. I walk back down the corridors and back into the main living area. 

"Alpha. What? You can't leave her down there. She is your mate." Ryan stood up looking at me. 

"Leave."

"Jacob." Ryan pleaded.

"I said leave." Using my Alpha tone with him. Ryan lowered his head and left. I heard the loud echo of the heavy front door close signaling that he was gone. I walk up the mountain of stairs and multiple hallways to the Alphas wing and into my room. I walk in and strip of my clothes, leaving me in nothing but my underwear. I lay on my back in the bed. Seeing the moonlight shine into my room landing on me. I begin to feel tired and my head starts to nod. I fall asleep with Elizabeth the last thing on my mind.
