Disclaimer: Do not own Supernatural or any of its characters
AU. Dean Winchester is a lone werewolf, roaming the country for hundreds of years, he is unknown. Till his instinct draws to a small town and he meets his soul mate, Felicity Banks. But not without troubles along the way.
The morning sun shone through the tree tops, birds cawed and flew in fright and small animals scampered as a figure raced along the forest floor. He ran through the trees and brush, his paws seeming to never touch ground. The light brown fur danced with the movement of the strong creature below it. The graceful movement of the wolf would hypnotize anyone watching. And as if he could spot someone doing so, the creature came to a halt at the tree line of the woods. He stuck his nose up in the air and sniffed deeply, trying to catch the scent in the air. He tensed as he saw movement from the corner of his eye and he turned to face the presence coming from the forest.
"I suggest you clear yourself from the territory, and back to your pack." The wolf said in warning as it walked out from the woods, a few feet from where he now stood. The yellow eyes stood out from the grey fur as it strode nearer to the intruder, teeth shown and bared.
"I have no pack, I am by myself."
"Don't care. You have come upon the territory belonging to Chase. Intruders are not welcome here!" The wolf growled.
"I think you will make an exception." The power came rolling off him as he growled his ears flat on his head. The grey wolf backed down instantly, showing his neck in surrender, sensing he was an alpha male. He slunk away back into the woods and turned, no doubt to tell his leader of the intruder. Dean sighed knowing now he only had a short time before more wolves would 'greet' him. His instincts had been leading him towards this small town in North Dakota and he knew the chance he was taking in doing so. Wolves were very territorial, and no more so than Chase. He was known for his harsh rules and mean temper which was probably why he one of strongest and eldest of the wolves and having one of the larger territories in the U.S.
And it just so happened that Dean's instinct's led him into Chase's territory. He tried to ignore the need to run east, but it kept calling him to where he did not know. Knowing he was running out of time Dean quickly shifted into his human form. His jeans and simple white t-shirt graced his strong frame. His bare feet squished in the damp grass as the dew still hung onto the blades as he made his way through the meadow, his sensitive hearing catching the faint sounds of laughter and squealing of young children. The park sat amongst the tall pine trees of the side of the forest. The chatter of a couple kids was heard as they played on the bars and swings. Dean approached, his heart beating rapidly under his shirt, green eyes taking in the scene all at once. Though instantly, his heart seemed to miss a beat, as the sweetest sound in all the years he's lived, seemed to rush though his body. This, this was what his primal instincts were leading him to and the urge called to him.
He aggressively started to walk along the fenced area, piercing eyes trying to find the source. He was almost desperate the ache was so strong, his body tense. And from that to an absolute calming sensation flooded him as he gazed at the source of the beautiful sound. Dark, wavy hair, framed her face as she laughed at the young boy in front of her as they joked around. It was not where his instincts had led him to, it was who.
And then he felt absolutely frozen, a feeling he could not explain rush through him. Something he had never, not once experienced in his lifetime, his past or present. Her eyes caught his.
Her heart thudded in her chest as she held the gaze of the man across the park. She felt fingers poking at her, and a small voice speaking, but she could not turn her eyes from the mysterious man. A rough shake from the boy beside her had her breaking the gaze. Disoriented, she finally caught what the boy was saying to her.
"Fliss? Helllllooo? You still in there? Who you looking at? Is he your boyfriend?" She looked at him confused for a moment and then quickly shook her head.
"What? No! I was just..."
"Daniel! Stop bothering your Aunt!"
"Sorry."
She ruffled his hair and smirked as he pouted in return. He quickly scampered off to play on the jungle gym nearby as his mother arrived from the parking lot.
"Thank you so much for looking after him, Felicity. Kevin and I totally needed the break from, well, everything for the day!"
"It was no problem, Carol; he was a joy to have!"
Carol rolled her eyes good naturedly as she sat beside Felicity. "I'm sure he was, I could see by how he was poking you constantly."
Felicity blushed, remembering what had caused her momentarily leave the world behind her. She looked back to where she saw him, but was disappointed to see him gone. Why was she missing a total stranger like this?
"So who was he?"
Felicity looked at her sister-in-law quickly but looked away again, hoping to spot the strange man. "Who was who?"
She received a playful slap on the arm. "You know who! The guy you were locking gazes with. You were in a trance, I swear."
"Was not." She said ingnantly.
"Was too!" Carol huffed, wrapping her sweater around her tighter in the cool morning air. It was the first day that felt like spring was finally here and everyone seemed to be out enjoying it, even early in the morning.
"Doesn't matter, he's gone anyways." Felicity picked at her own sweater. She was in this situation before. Guys would look at her but never approach. And she was too shy to approach them. In her mind if they were interested, they would advance and make the first move. She was old fashioned like that. But they never did. They just looked from afar.
Carol placed her hand on Felicity's arm, trying to get her to look up.
"You never know, Fliss. He could just appear before you again, wanting to know your name."
Felicity smiled but it did not reach her eyes. She could only hope that the man with blazing green eyes would show up again. She had never had that response to a man before. And she had looked into the eyes of a few.
Their eyes locked for what seemed to be an eternity. Her blue eyes seemed to delve deep into his being. He was shocked back into reality once she forced her gaze away and towards the small boy beside her. He unconsciously growled, wanting that connection again. But he had to step back. Against the pull to be by her side, he backed away keeping his gaze on her until the last moment and he forced his legs to walk out of the park and onto the street. He needed to figure out why he was led here. Why was he drawn to this woman? He passed a hand through his brown hair as he walked the side walk, the town quiet for being mid morning. Though it was soon to become much busier. Especially for him. The hairs on the back of neck stood up as a tall man approached him, crossing the street to get to him. His was taller than Dean and gave out an air of control and power. The man stopped before him, but Dean knew he was not just a man.
"You must come with me." He left no room for negotiation. It was an order. And Dean hated orders.
"And who might you be that I should listen to you?" Dean advanced, his presence pushing the other man back a step. He looked confused for a minute at Dean, wondering who held more influence then himself. But he seemed to steel himself and he took his step forward once again and hissed threatenly, not liking that he was pushed into submitting on his own land.
"I am Chase. The question now though is who are you?"
So? Shall I continue? Love to hear your opinions!!!!
