Chapter 36: A Locked Door.

Kaito sensed it from far away. The moment the scent hit him, his heart stopped for a second. It was familiar. Too familiar. It was the same scent he had caught the day his new roommate arrived. That day, he had thought maybe the smell came from the boy who moved in, but now he knew the truth. His mate had shown up that day. He had felt her. And he had been too blind to realize it.

He clenched his teeth in anger. How could he have missed it? How could he have been so foolish? But now that the scent was back, he wouldn’t waste another second. He was going to find her, and he was going to mark her before the others had a chance. He had no time to play fair.

It wasn’t because he was selfish. No, Kaito had just never learned how to share. And he wasn’t about to start now—not even because of some old prophecy. He wanted her to be his. Only his.

He sired Alex quickly and told him to take care of the pack. Then he took off, following the trail of the scent. It pulled at something deep in his soul. His mate was calling him. He could feel it. She wanted to see him too. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have released a scent so strong, so powerful that it reached him even across the woods.

Kaito ran with everything he had. His speed doubled, even tripled. It felt like the ground moved under his feet just to help him reach her faster. But when he saw where the scent was leading him, he slowed down in shock.

His own dormitory.

Why there?

Why would his mate be in the boys’ dormitory on the night of the full moon? Could she be from the Luna Girls school? Maybe she got lost. Maybe she was scared and wandered here by mistake. The thought of it made his body burn hotter.

His fur, already made of flames, sparked brighter. Other wolves who saw him on the way moved aside, scared by the fire. Kaito didn’t care. He had to see her. But he couldn’t go into the dormitory in his wolf form. The human students would lose their minds.
