The elf's mate

Chapter 12: Answered questions

Leela's pov:

My eyes felt heavy as I opened slowly to a bright room. I blinked trying to get used to the brightness. I saw him again Trayden. What did he do to me? I felt anger but saw him rush over and blow out a long breath he hugged me "Thank god your okay." I knew Trayden would never hurt me a rush of safeness ran through me. I said "What happened?" He looked down and bit his lip that was incredibly cute. He blushed "Please don't freak out." I rolled my eyes " Why would I do that?" He took a strand a hair and tucked it behind his ears. "This is going to sound crazy but you are my mate." I laughed almost falling out the bed. He rushed to my side in a blink of an eye. Nobody was that quick I thought to myself. "I wish I could read your mind but , I can't anymore because I rejected you."

Suddenly hurt and pin clutched my stomach. He winced and said "Of course that was a mistake us elves can only go so long with out our mates I knew it when we were younger. Of course it really hit me at sixteen. I felt so much pain but, I was a warrior.We were tired of the elves being taken advantage of. I didn't like humans mostly the government for enslaving us. I realized you aren't one of them I had realized that when we were younger that was the only way you could see me. You were pure of heart. I focused my hate on the war and now that it has calm down I will take you back with me. If you will have me of course you can't resist." He smirked. I didn't know what to say . I believed this when I was young. I told him "Prove it." He ran so fast and then came back with food that surely not from the hospital.

He showed me his ears again and I told him to come here. I pulled on them half expected them to come off. He hissed in pain and I realized I hadn't let go. It had to be true I said "What about the mate thing?" he looked at me and rubbed my arms and tingles went up it. "I know you feel it, those tingles it's because i'm your mate." My mouth was open and looked like it was going to drop on the floor. "What do mates do?" I asked blushing." They stay together forever, hold hands and kiss. One day we will complete the mating process." His face was red and he coughed. "You okay? " he said "Yeah." Was he talking about having sex? I immediately had images popped in my head and I slapped my forehead for thinking dirty like that. I asked "That's sex?" He lowly answered me with his head down " Yes and you get a tattoo like mine.'' I was very confused but mostly curios what does your's mean "Unmated warrior" he said . I said "When do I go back with you ?" I believed him no way was he making all this up.
