Little mate

I was having a strange dream with the same red city but I could not think where it could possibly located. I woke up with a little pain in my head, and I realized I was in the hospital, fuck my life, AGAIN!. Ahhhh I really should cut my visits short from now on.

There was no one around, I grabbed my phone from the table beside the hospital to look at the clock. It was about 12pm on WEDNESDAY, I slept for almost two days. But I felt like I had a good rest. I saw some of my clothes on the table, I ripped my IV and started to change from the ugly hospital gown. Thank you Nana for the comfortable and warm hoodie. I decided to had to the dining room to have lunch which lasted until two o'clock.

 I opened the huge doors and stepped inside. I took a place at my usual place after I took my lunch. Today we had pizza, I loved pizza, I saw that there were not so many students as most of them finished courses at 12:30. My leg was still hurting but gradually less then Monday. Ah Monday the day I met my lousy excuse for a mate. But he was so hot with his blue eyes and black hair, and those horns black as night. What are you thinking about, STOP. He insulted you, so forget him, I said to myself. I needed to fucking start that research already. I was half through my lunch when I heard the bell and students started to flood in along with teachers. Some looked at me warily but I ignored them. 

I was lost in thought until someone petted my shoulder to catch my attention, it was my annoying mate, he said:

" Why are you out of the infirmary?" He sounded angry, but also worried.

" Well hello there, little mate, I got hungry, not that is any concern of yours." I said dismissing him. Thank god I finished my lunch, I got up heading to get an apple for desert still limping on my injured leg. I decided, that it will be good to talk to the principal, maybe he would give me a free day. As I was heading out, my mate said, still following  me:

" I command you to go back."

" Ugh, so bossy, you are not my King and so you can't order me around. Get that into your thick skull and leave me alone.", but he was persistent.

" Stop", he said and grabbed my hand, turning me around.

" What the hell, let go you psycho, and go find another more beautiful mate." he was stunned at my outburst.

" I don't want another mate you are mine and only mine." he said in a low voice.

" No I am not, and never will be, you piece of shit. How dare you come here and say to my face that you want me, when first time you saw me you insulted me and made me feel like fucking shit. You don't deserve me. NOW LET ME GO, before I cut you again!" I screamed in his face, which made him to let me go, earning a few gasps from the students around us. I could clearly see regret on his face and I could see he was hurting, but for all I care, he deserves it.

The stair were a total nightmare, I had to stop midway my leg hurting. Just then I saw professor Damien descending the stairs, and I said:

" Hey there Damien, how you doing?"

" Good, how is your leg?" he asked

" Hurts like a bitch.", he chuckled at my comment and said:

" Where you headed?"

" To the principal office. A long way from here, I just hope I don't collapse till I get there." To my surprise he came beside me and gestured to my body, saying:

" Can I carry you there, to make amends?"

" Yes please." In one second he had me in his arms bridal stile, I blushed a little but enjoyed the feeling.

We heard a menacing growl behind, it was my mate and boy, he was ready to rip Damien to shreds. 

" SHE IS MINE!" he said and I could feel Damien visibly tense, saying:

" Sorry, Khris, but he is my King I have to obey him." and he slowly put me down.

" It's okay don't worry about it."  I sighed and made my back up the stairs. Groaning as my leg was throbbing at every fucking step. The next thing I know strong hands picked me up bridal style. I couldn't help but relax and enjoy his hands on me, damn mate bond. 

I looked up at his face and he smiled lovingly at me.

" Put me down, I can walk just fine."

" Not a chance, I can't bear to see you hurting."

" Yeah, right, but fine cause my leg is killing me. By the way, what is your name, little mate?" I asked him as we were making our way to the principal office.

" Seth, and don't call me that." he said.

" Well, Seth, I can call you whatever I want, and you can't stop me, little mate. And I think it suits you quite well." I said giggling.

" Do that again." 

" What?" I said confused.

" I love your laugh, it's music to my years." he said amusingly.

" Is that a pun I just heard, and here I thought that you didn't have any humor."

"There is still a lot that you don't know about me." he said in my hear and I shivered at his voice feeling sparks everywhere, I suddenly felt horny, Why aren't we there yet? " And What is your name?" he continued.

" My name is Khristiana Moondust, but I go by Khris."

" Beautiful" he said and I blushed hard, which caused a smirk to appear on his face.

" We're here, thanks for the ride." and I tried wiggling out of his arms.

" Stop, unless you want me to take you right here." Shit my butt was just above his pants, but he put me down and I knocked on the door and entered, of course he had to follow me in here too. I groaned annoyed.

" Good day, principle." I said 

" Hello, there, Khris, how is your leg?"

"Still healing."

" So what brings you here today?" he asked curiously.

" I was going to ask you if I could take today off from my courses?"

" Go right ahead, and I must thank you, for your service to this school by defeating those horrible creatures, you not only saved us but the whole town."

" No problem, any time, thank you, sir."

" But I must insist that you accept your mate. Having a mate is a beautiful thing, you should not waste your chance you might regret it later. And also, King, you are lucky to have such a powerful and beautiful mate, treat her well." he continued.

" But how did you know?" I said, my curiosity getting the best of me.

" Well it was quite obvious when he walked out after you."

" Not about that, fuck that, my powers, did you know I had them?" I persisted.

" Yes from the first time you entered here, I could sense power all around you. You are meant for great things. But remember this: True courage is about knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one."(inspiration: quote by Gandalf in The Hobbit.) he said serious. " Now be on your way I have things to do." he concluded.

" Thank you, have a good day." I said and left the room.

I was headed for one place, the library, I needed answers asap. But I had to gat rid of my annoying little mate.
