With every step we took, my heart grew faster. I wasn't ready to face people, I only just met my mate and I even forget what his name is. I remember hearing it during the battle, yet it couldn't get past my tongue.

We finally reached the brown door that lead to the kitchen. Slowly, he opened the door, only revealing a smirking Jennifer.

I let out a big breath I didn't know I was holding. He glanced at me quickly and looked back at Jennifer while she just nodded at me, showing that she dismissed the others for my sake.

"So I see you've found her, Damien."

Damien! How could I forget such a name. It was a soft name, yet it caused a thrill to go through me as if I just dropped on a rollercoaster.

Damien only nodded, too entranced in his thoughts. Jennifer looked at us both. Her eyes flickering between us and smile growing with each movement.

I stared at her curiously, "Spit it out Jennifer." Her smile only widened and a small girly giggle escaped her lips.

"You guys are...just...I've never seen anything like it." Her words made me think. Does she mean that in a good way. No, it's probably bad most mates would react the same right. Are we supposed to be more affectionate? Damien has not been not looking at me for a brief amount of time, and I now that sounds clingy and crazy but it's just I can't stop looking at him. So why is he ignoring me?

Yet, if it was bad why would she be smiling. I sure have a lot of questions to ask later.

"I'll just leave you two alone.", she said with a small concealed smile. "Don't worry, people are going to leave you two alone for a while, to figure things out of course. The Beta will be taking over for you in your absence, Damien."

He nodded at his sister in law and she strode away through the door, leaving us two in total silence. Alone.

I leaned against the marble countertop in the middle of the kitchen. I didn't notice how sweaty my palms were until the cool surface reached my skin, making small goosebumps form.

He probably didn't want to look at me right now, for some reason. My heart pulled at my chest and I felt something different, something similar yet entirely different from what I felt three years ago.

I diverted my gaze to the room around me. The dark oak cabinets contrasted the tan "u" shaped countertop nicely. A rather big oven, dishwasher, and refrigerator were lined within the marble. The ground was a soft black tile, it was cool like the marble.

I tried to focus on the coolness starting to penetrate my body, but the more I thought about it, the more it seemed to affect my heart. The coldness was beginning to spread throughout it and I new it was because of him. He only just met me, yet from not looking at me for a good five minutes, he's made me feel poor.

I jumped and sat on the tile, causing almost no noise that a pin drop would be louder.

Damien turned his back to me and gripped the marble tightly with both hands. I watched in fascination how his back muscles flexed and relaxed.

I wish I could be inside his head.

"Did I do something?" He stilled at my words. I was waiting for the worst so I could be at least prepared for the heartache.

He turned around, dark eyes looking into mine. Pieces of his dark hair hung I front of his face, making a mysterious aura come around him.

"Why would you ever think that?" He began to step towards me and I looked down, embarrassed of my question.

"It's just, you haven't said anything and you've been ignoring me." I looked down at the tile that was now occupied by a pair of black socks and grey sweats.

I don't think he understands that I feel so much more than him. Even though he is powerful and therefore has heightened emotions, mine are ten times his. I only wish there was a way he could see how I feel.

His muscles flexed before my eyes.

And how I'm controlling myself...

After him not replying for a minute, I continue, "If you changed your mind just tell me now." I say softly. "Don't lead me on."

I started to scoot off the counter top. I needed to get away from this, from him. I can't handle any more pain.

I only made one movement and the next thing I know he is between my legs while I sit on the counter.

My breathe was lost and hard to regain from him. His tainted hands lay softly on my hips and his face mere millimeters away from mine.

"Listen," I couldn't see how I could with his breathe on my face coming from lips that were so close.

"I never want to hear you say that again. It's just, I never thought I'd find you, I'm in shock." He slowly moved one of his hands against my cheek and neck.

"Anthony found Jennifer when he was 16, around the basic time to find your mate. And me being 20 it just made me loose hope. And - it's just - I can't believe I found you and you found me and I'm just in bliss."

He rested his forehead against mine and closed his eyes, breathing soft yet fast breaths.

"I just can't explain my feelings, I've never felt this way before..."

He pulled my waist to the edge of the counter.

"And it's weird..."

He moved his body against mine.

"How attached I am to you from a single glance..."

He looked me in the eyes.

"And how you're irresistible to me."

If my breathe wasn't already taken away, it was now. Those words, they're all I needed.

I watched how his dark eyes lingered on my lips, his tongue lapped around his, moistening them.

My breathing got heavier as I watched him slowly close the millimeters of space between us.

Both of our eyes closed as our lips met. His other hand came up to my neck like the other as he gently held the kiss between us.

Explosions erupted in my body from the intimate contact. His lips were soft against mine as we moved slowly in unison.

The only sound was our lips locking against one another as well as our soft pants, both of us completely breathless from the sensation.

A few moments later, he pulled away. Our foreheads stayed against one another as we both struggled for breathe.

As if I could get closer, Damien pulled me into his embrace. I moved my head to his neck, letting his sweet aroma ooze my senses.

His arms wrapped around my back and waist, holding me as if his life depended on it.

Actually it did.

I couldn't imagine a world without him and I'd like to think he feels the same.
