Chapter 2 - Who Is She?

Zeus's POV:

I was staring intensely at her. Who is she? Why does she smell so uncommon? The scent reminded me of my grandma... She had a unique fragrance on her body too!​​

It's a myth that werewolves can sense a particularly sweet smell on someone's body if they are their loved ones. But I don't even know this lady, why did I sense such a rare scent?

She piqued my curiosity badly as my eyes were already fixated on her. She was walking with a nonchalant motion along the footpath. Probably she was crying, as she was consistently wiping her tears.

From behind she looked too lonely! Unknowingly I started following her from behind as my mind was extremely inquisitive.

Suddenly she stopped walking. I feared that if she had sensed someone tailing her and I stepped back a little. But she didn't turn behind and turned her left towards the main street. It was around 8 pm here in Rome. The Via Del Corso street was the busiest during this hour as thousands of vehicles were running wild on the road.

I was a little perplexed with her gesture. Why did she turn towards the road? What she is up to?

I saw her side face, particularly her eyes, they looked so mournful. Tears were rolling down her cheeks and she was biting her lips to stop herself from breaking down. Her facial expression was too intense as if she was lost in some deep thoughts.

I don't know why but I couldn't read her mind! As the alpha werewolf, I have my supernatural ability to read someone's mind, particularly humans. I still haven't accustomed completely to reading a werewolf's mind for which I am practicing quite hard.

But I failed in her case! Huh? Why? Isn't she a human? But she doesn't seem to a werewolf too! I deliberately tried again but failed drastically.

On the spur of the moment, a huge car was driving towards our direction on the street. Suddenly I gazed at her and I was startled.

She was staring at the car with her dense and intensified eyes and from her body gesture, it appeared to me that she was about to jump before it! Damn! She wants to commit suicide!

As the car approached the place we were standing at, abruptly she jumped before it.

I couldn't waste a single millisecond and opted for my supernatural power without my will.

With my superhuman speed, I rushed to her and grabbed her forcefully within my strong arms. Immediately I jumped on the opposite side of the road using my superstrong werewolf legs in a fraction of second.

As I landed on that side I glanced at her once. Her eyes were closed but she appeared to me as divine beauty while lying in my arms. My heart was pounding fast as I was holding her firmly. She was trembling in fear and unknowingly she was clasping my chest with her wobbly hands to seek comfort. Even I wanted to...but I couldn't let her go from my arms.

After a few seconds, she slowly opened her eyes and stared at me with her fearful gaze. She was panting fast as she was very terrified.

I was wearing my black cap to cover my face and unknowingly my eyes were turned red as I used my werewolf superpowers without my will. As she gazed at me, I regained my senses and almost threw her on the ground from my arms. I fixed my cap properly to make sure she didn't notice my supernatural eyes and started running away from her. I didn't look behind once.

"Hey! Wait! Wait!" I heard a loud call behind me from her as I sensed she tried to run after me in order to stop me.

But how can a mere human like her catch up with a werewolf speed? I smirked at her ignorance while running.

After reaching a safe distance I stopped and turned behind. She wasn't visible anymore as I came far enough.

Phewww! I acted so recklessly today! Why the f*ck I was so stupid today? I almost revealed myself before her! That's absolutely shameful for an alpha! I need to keep this as a secret from everyone.

She almost tricked me with her fascinating smell as I unknowingly acted as her pet animal!

I started to head back towards my home, but my feet stopped. A troubling thought was bothering me consistently.

What if she tries again to die? I just saved her at that moment but what if she attempts again?

"Huh? Why am I concerned about her? If she wants to die, let her die! Why the f*ck I am getting so puzzled? I grumbled fiercely while clenching my wrist.

I got an idea instantly. I tried to use my super wolf sight to know about her.

But what's this? Everything was completely black in my vision. Did I fail again? I never failed before to foresight a human. They why can't I use my powers with her?

I was totally pissed off as I failed to control my concern for her. I opted for my super wolf invisible-power and started running back to that place again, where I saved her.

What the f*ck am I doing now?

As I reached the place I looked all around to find her. Though I stood a bit distant from her as she appeared to be someone really mystical. So, I was dubious to go near her.

Ahh, there she is! Sitting at the bus-stop and crying again. What's the matter with her?

I slowly gathered courage and went near her, but as I opted for my invisibility, she couldn't see me. She was crying helplessly.

"Why? Why did you save me? What am I going to do with my life now? Why did you do it?" She was mumbling mournfully while sobbing bitterly. Her cheeks were flustered red as if she had been crying too hard for a long time.

"I saved her life and instead of being thankful, she is blaming me back? What an idiot! That's why I dislike humans!" I murmured as I was sulking with her gesture with my eyes fixed at her.
