Another chapter for my crappy story,  (*ﾟ▽ﾟ)ﾉ

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

We are looking at him murderously for a couple of minutes, he's  sweating  and looks very nervous in our intense gaze.

"what are mates? " we asked at the same time in confusion.

"eh?" that's all he said looking at us like we are some kinda idiots.  Me and my sister raise an eyebrow and waited for him to speak. A bit later he clears his throat and starts to explain.

"Well, you see,  mates are like soulmates, they are your other half. Mates is a gift from the moon goddess. That person would be the one you will love while heartedly and he/she will love you back whole heartedly.  Mates are your equals.

"so you're saying that I am the love of your life?" I  ask and he nodded.
"Finally Kira! You have a boyfriend!!!" Mare said excited.

"Whoah!  Whoah! Hold up a second. He's not my boyfriend!"

"You don't  want me?" we both snap our head to Jared when he spoke. He looks hurt and in pain.

"You can't be my boyfriend. I just met you, I don't even know who you are. And in fact I can't have you" even if it pains me,  I said those words to him. I can't risk it.
"How can I even have a boyfriend instantly. That would be weird you know" I continue

"But you are weird" Mare comment while pointing her finger at me.

"Shut up Mare!" frustrated by her but she laughed at me. One day I might kill this girl.  Grr

"You can reject me if you like,  I don't want to push you to be by my side just because we are mates" Jared intervene and walk away with his head bow but straighten his posture before he reach the door.  He doesn't like anyone to notice something's wrong. But I can see him clearly. Read him like an open book.

"Did he just walk out on me?"
"ah-huh" was all Mare's  respond. "whatever" I said before walking away but Mare grab my arm.

"Stop playing fool Kira.  We both know what you feel, you might not like him and doesn't care about you being mate with him but deep down,  I know you do" she said seriously, gone with the jolly Mare replaces by serious and scary Bloody Mare Knight.
I let out  a deep breath, looking at the door he went.

"I can't have him Mare, he will be my weakness and I don't want to drag him in my twisted messy life" I look at Mare sadly.

She smile at me.

"He won't be your weakness Kira... "

She pulls me to her and whisper to my ears.

"... And his already into your twisted messy life"

"talk to him" she demand before leaving.  I'm left her dumbfounded.  I'm half werewolf,  I never expect to have a mate. But as Mare said,  deep down I'm  hoping to find one.

When everything is sort out,  when I can walk around without looking over my shoulder,  when everything is safe.

Safe?

When will that happened?

Born with unnatural abilities in humans eyes.  Born a monster, a curse,  a murderer a reincarnation of the devil himself, that's what I am to those who knows my name but doesn't know me truly. Those fuck up ignorant bitches.

Walking towards his room. Well I know my way just following his scent and it leads me to a large wooden door with a simple carving of two wolves howling at moon. I push open his door and enter without knocking.  He's sitting on his king size bed,  head down and hands on his hair. I can feel his pain. And it hurts me as well.

"hey"

What?  That's all I can say to him duh...

He raise his head and looks at me, a lone tear escape from his eyes. He stayed there just looking. It's like waiting for something bad to happened.
I let out a deep breath before speaking.

"sorry...  For playing dumb earlier" he just stare at me waiting for the next word I'm about to say.

"I'm not ready to have a mate,  I didn't expect the moon goddess to bless me one. I....  I can't have you.  You don't deserve someone like m....."

In a blink of an eye, I'm wrapped around his arm. His lips against mine

"I won't ask you 'why' or what your reasons are, but one chance is all I'm asking from you" he said while tightening his arms around me. Hid head on the crook of my neck sniffing my neck as if he's memorising my scent.  I stood there unable to move

"just a chance" he pleaded.

"I can't have weaknesses" whispering while looking into his eyes.  I let my hand touch his cheek. He lean against my touch and close his eyes letting out a deep breath.

Looking deep into my eyes he said the words I didn't expect to hear.

"Then let me be your strength. Let me know you more,  let me in Shakira"

The way he said my name,  it was so perfect like he was born to say it.

"I'm a monster, heartless murderer" I choke on my words.  He will never love someone like me.

He didn't say anything, he's soft lips met mine. It taste like chocolate moist cake the melts like ice cream into your mouth.
How can I resist him if his kiss is telling me that 'I don't care who you are as Long as you are mine'

Can I be happy once?

Can I let myself be selfish just once and accept him?

Kissing him back in pure surrender I let myself be melt under his touch.

............

Waking up the next day.  His hands wrapped around my body, his chin on top of my head and I'm facing his neck. I tried to move only for him to tighten his hold on me. He is now my weakness at the same time my strength.

Weakness or strength he is mine

Mine alone
