Dan Howell is a werewolf?

Chapter 13

"Hi! It's so wonderful to meet you! I was a little worried Phil was going to try to steal my mate." I rambled nervously. Simon just laughed. "You have nothing to worry about! You have nothing to worry about from Dan either unless you have a problem with cussing that is." I smiled a little. "I know I've been watching their videos since Dan started on YouTube." Simon's jaw dropped as he appraised me. "Why aren't you marked and mated?" I flushed with embarrassment. "Oooooh this promises to be juicy! What happened!" "I had a panic attack." I muttered. Suddenly Simon's sass level dropped and he softened, "Why?". "If it's okay with you I'd rather not go into it before my mate even knows." "Well then Phil and I are going to leave so that you and Dan can get back to whatever you were up to." Simon walked out of the room with a cheeky wink. Leaving me there with my mouth gaping in shock. I walked out in time to see Simon dragging Phil out of the apartment. "Bye Luna!" Simon called as he shut the door. I want to mark mate. No Laurel! Fine. I struggled but Laurel managed to take over completely leaving me to beg her to let me tell him first so that way he can reject me. "Hi Dan I don't think I've had the pleasure of Introducing myself yet. I'm Laurel." "Hi Laurel why don't you let Lauren talk to me?" Dan asked cautiously taking in my violet eyes. "Lauren doesn't want me to mark you until we've told you a few things and yet she's too reluctant it seems so I'm here to tell you." No! Laurel please! "Oh but Lauren he's our mate!  Would you prefer to show him?" Please Laurel not like this! "Oh but I think it should be exactly like this. Unless you'd rather show him, I can let you feel some heat that would be efficient." Dan watched confused and worried trying to figure out what was going on. "Oh Lauren there's no need to cry it's determined I'll let you feel the heat." I felt myself gain control and then the scorching heat seeped in. I bit back a sob but I couldn't stop the water that started pouring from my hands. I wrapped my arms around myself as though my body could hide the torrent of water. I looked at Dan in fear of what he thought but his eyes held mine. "Laurel take back the heat. I want to talk to Lauren." The heat receded the water went with it. "Impressive you even managed to keep the floor dry." Dan wrapped his arms around my soaked form. "Is there anything else I need to know?" "Yes but it's going to take a long time." "Ok, go put on some dry clothes before you catch cold and then we'll talk." I nodded and changed into some warm pajama's. When I got back I sat on the opposite end of the couch from Dan thinking he wouldn't want to be anywhere near me. With a sigh he reached over and tucked me into his side. "I'll start at the beginning, my father was the Alpha and my mother is the Luna. As their only offspring, due to complications during childbirth, I should be the future Alpha of the pack. As long as I can remember I've had an affinity with cats and been able to control water. One day when I was maybe 4 my mother walked in on me filling my cat's water dish using my powers and was already about to flip her lid, but then she found out that I could also understand what my cat was saying. And I don't mean like when you hear a cat meow and you know it's hungry or it's caught something, I mean I can hear word for word what a cat is saying as plainly as I know what you're saying. When my mom realized this she ran out of the house telling anyone and everyone that I was insane. When I was five and my father who protected me was away she slapped me because I liked cats, I had to stay in my room until the bruises that covered every inch of my body healed, even with my wolf it took three days. I used to be friends with someone you know actually, Catrific, her username is something we came up with together because of my affinity with cats. After my mom thought I was insane I was kept inside, fed minimal amounts, and would've had things much worse if there wasn't an image to uphold with the rest of the community. I had a laptop, a bed, Oakley, and clothes. I wasn't allowed outside unless I had to go to school which leads to the next chunk of my story. When I was fourteen a guy who knew I was next in line to be alpha tried to convince me I was his mate because he was sixteen. He spends so many days with me after that, always saying he wanted to mark me, me reminding him he couldn't until I turn 15. My father said he was ok as long as he didn't hurt me my mother cried over "the poor unfortunate soul". I never liked him. He told me it was just because I wasn't old enough. I finally turned 15 and low and behold, he wasn't  my mate. I confronted him about it, big mistake. He got mad because he wanted to mark me, make me his before I found out so that he could be Alpha. My father found me the next day, unconscious, bruised, bloody, and broken. He stopped caring a few months after and left me alone in the world. My mother took advantage of that and forced pack members to beat me. My father died a few months later and life got harder. I had to make appearances talk to the Beta's family but if I talked I didn't get food, but if I was asked a question or talked to directly I had to respond. When you had the packs come to find your mate I was left behind and I ventured outside only to find the Beta's little sister, who was very young at the time, sobbing behind a bush because her family had forgotten her. I took care of her while they were gone and I made sure I disappeared before they got home. I was never raped, though my mother was tempted, because being whole for your mate is very important in my old pack and she didn't want to tarnish anyone else's soul by association with me. When I turned 18 I was allowed to leave my mother couldn't wait to get rid of me. Now here we are." I kept my head down in fear, even though Dan's arm had tightened around me protectively I was still sure he wanted to reject me. "You are so strong my love, I would love to have you as my equal." Dan said lifting my chin so he could place a soft kiss on my lips. "You're not rejecting me?" My eyes search this for any betrayal. "No, in fact can I mark you?" "Only if I can mark you back." His dimples popped as he smiled and kissed me. "Of course." He leaned over and gently kissed the top of my right collarbone where it meets my shoulder. His eyes met mine, and with one last assurance of approval he sunk his teeth into my skin. It hurt like hell until suddenly it was more sensual than a kiss. He licked the mark clean to heal it and then it was my turn. I gently kissed the corresponding spot on his right side. With his final approval I marked him back and licked my mark. Now everyone will know that we belong to each other and we'll be able to talk to each other mentally. "I'm so glad you know now." I whispered gently kissing him, he responded to the kiss with a muted passion. "I'm so glad you trusted me to know."
