Author's Note: Love at first___ (scent, in this case) challenge



Remus Lupin made his way to the dungeons of Hogwarts for his Wolfsbane Potion. The scent grew stronger. He swallowed. His mate was here at Hogwarts and that was confusing as it was July and only a skeleton staff about. Then again, there were no students either.

The myth of werewolves mating only once was true to an extent, many misconstrued that as meaning the first person that the werewolf had sex with was their mate. Not so. It was extremely rare for a werewolf to ever find their mate, one that could be agreed upon by beast and man within. The Wolf always knew first, recognizing it's mate by scent.

Remus opened the door to Severus office. His mate was male, that was both a shock and a relief. Remus preferred men, but Moony would be more likely to choose a female.

Oh Merlin....no...Severus was going to kill him.

"Hey, you must be the werewolf, I'm Xander."

Remus winced. His mate was Severus' son. The young American who had been Muggle-raised and not even Severus' had known about until very recently. The wolf was excited. It's mate! Moony had found his mate. Remus could only think--this was Severus' son.
