Bound To You

PROLOGUE

Katalina POV

This is my story. Before I get into more detail I should let you know that I'm not your regular run of the mill 19-year-old. Nope, I'm special. Why would I think I'm special you ask? Well, because I'm an all-powerful god. 

Haha nope, I'm just kidding. I'm the beacon. What is a beacon you might ask? Well it's just a regular old someone, who holds great power and needs to perfect those powers completely and bring peace to all supernatural creatures in the world! No big deal right? Wrong! It is a massively humongous deal! Especially when you don't have your parents to guide you anymore and your stuck living next to a human village and have to deal with vampires trying to kill you due to the whole "world peace" mantra. 

Yeah, I'm an orphan. My parents died when I was 10 years old. They were the second greatest alpha's in the world but decided it would be best to join packs with the first greatest alpha, alpha Damion Regele. His son is older than I am so he's first in line to become alpha of the pack. 

My parents were killed by rogue wolves that tried to steal our belongings. There where over 30 rogues that night. Not to mention that most members of the pack were halfway across the world for a pack mingle looking for their mates. I still remember it, like it was yesterday.

The night was eerie and quiet. They say most things happen on these kinds of nights. I woke up to the sound of a door creaking open slowly. As I opened my eyes they adjusted to the dark quickly. 

 I flung the cover off me and sat on the edge of my bed with my feet dangling inches off the floor. "I'm thirsty" I said to myself in my dark room. I looked at my nightstand. I reached for my phone but another noise, emanating from my parent's room, stopped me in my tracks. 'Is mom and dad up?' I thought they would be asleep by now.

I used my wolf hearing and listened. The house sounded quite. Only the lulls of hearts beating in the distance was heard. It was kind of creepy.

I got up from my bed and slowly, I walked to the door. 'Wy am I acting so sneaky in my own house?' I stopped when something caught the corner of my eye. 'Has there always been a light facing my room? That's odd.' 

Since my room was located directly across from the field leading to the woods, I was able to watch how the little pups play or how the older wolves trained. I never did remember seeing that light tho. 

I walked out of my room, preparing myself for the scolding I would get for waking my parents but they were already awake.

"Mom, Dad, what's happening?"

"Just go and sit near your mother Kat" my father held his knife in his hand and my mother grabbed me and made me sit on her lap. My heartbeat sped instantly. 'Is someone coming for me? Did they find out about my powers?' I looked up to my mother, teary-eyed.

She kissed my forehead and said "no baby, we won't let anyone take you from us."

As those words left her mouth, a loud crash broke the silence. "Take Katalina and run! I smell rogues." My mother hurriedly ran out the door with my hand in hers and me, trailing after her.

We ran through the back door as more rogues entered the front of the mansion. "Mom" I said on the brink of tears. 

"No, Katalea, I will not let them hurt you. Be strong baby." I tried to do what she said but Tears still streamed down my face freely. "Honey I need you to cast a spell to hide your scent."

"What about yo-"

"No Honey there's no time, you have to hurry."

"But I can't  leave you and dad behind."

"Kat listen to me. We cannot let it end here, now cast your spell and go. We'll deal with this. Just run into the city and find your nearest police station and ask for Marcelo, he is your father's father and he will know what to do. Now go." She kissed my head and pushed me behind a few trees.

I quickly cast my spell and turned to face my parents. My heart sunk. My mother had severe wounds and my father was fighting in his wolf form. His light grey fur now matted with blood.

I wanted to do something, I needed to do something. So I ran. I ran to the nearest station and met with Marcelo. He and a few other wolves ran back to the mansion, only to find my parent's limp mangled body lying on the floor. They didn't let me go see them. I saw them at their funeral. A few days later I ended up staying at Marcelo and Frumosa's house, my father's parents.

They then became my new family.

A few years after the incident my grandfather passed away and my grandmother died shortly after. I was then moved back to the pack mansion and there was where I felt alone the most. I was in a depressed state with no family whatsoever so I left when I was 15 which was three years ago. 

At the age of 2 my powers began to show and my parents were the only ones that helped me control them. No one else knew that I was the beacon besides my grandmother and she passed away a year after my parents did. 

So basically only a few people know that I'm the beacon. There are other people that know about the beacon but they don't know that it's me. 

The beacon is to be protected by their mate even though they have great power. The beacon is vulnerable during full moons or when they change their forms, thus needing the protection of their mate. 

 I, on the other hand, I never got a chance to meet my mate. He is to protect me and I, him. 

Us wolves are usually able to find our mate's at the age of 16. Some of us don't even get that luxury of finding our mate at 16 and at this age wolve's with alpha blood begin there training abroad for 4 years.

Sometimes our mate's either die before we get to them or we find them in a different pack. We don't get a second chance at having a mate and if our mate dies after we bond with them, we die with them. 

The moon goddess made it so that we can't bear to live without our other half. If our mate dies and we aren't mated we live until we are 116 years old and then we die on the day we are born and in the same way our mate had died. 

Moving onto something more lively, let me tell you about my powers. My powers are special. It includes being able to cast spells like a witch. Being able to teleport and have excellent athleticism like a warlock. Having the strength of trolls, slowing time and reading other's minds like full-blooded vampires, being able to fly like pixies and fairies, and last but not least using my wolf's enhanced senses and being able to read my mate's mind along with being able to transform into my wolf.  

The only powers I have at the moment are those of the witch, wolf, warlock and some from the vampires. The rest I will gain when I meet my mate and when I'm 20.

At the age of 16 I felt like too much of an outcast and moved to my grandmother's home. Since then I wasn't able to meet my mate. I know he's still out there though, he has to be. I've also made friends so it's not like I'm all alone. 

Since I'm so darn special I'm friends with all supernatural beings. Even those pesky vampires that try to test my patience. 

The ones that try to kill me do not land under any specific group. They're loners and they do it purely out of fun or because they don't want sup's peace (shorter way of saying supernatural peace). 

In my grandmother's will, she stated that I must go to college to be able to inherit her belongings. My grandfather's will was never presented to me. I kind of found it odd but I let it be. Because of that I go to a human college but there are other sup's (supernaturals) that go there. 

At the college there are specific classes for us with powers. Through those classes are where I found my best friends Warren, Jessica, Catherine and Nivea. Warren and Jess are wolves, while Catherine is a Warlock and Nivea is a witch.

I also have a side job as a secretary to the CEO of Quora Tech. Industries, just so I have a little extra cash for myself. Now enough about that, let's get on to the fun parts.
