I have two mates and one is a chick!

Chapter Nine

Anna's POV

I slowly woke up and checked the clock. 2:30 pm. It was still dark in my room, due to my curtains being closed and the cloudy sky outside. I racked my brain and tried to remember last night's events. My mate brought me home. That's how I got in bed right? I'd have to call her and tell her that I appreciated her bringing me here.

I reached for my cellphone and looked for her number. I rolled my eyes when I saw the name she put for herself. "Soulmate." I decided to leave it and clicked the call button. A phone started ringing in my room. I jumped and screamed. Startling a newly awoken "mate." She jumped up and was clearly in defense mode. I had to admit she looked sort of cute. Actually, a lot of cute. Disheveled hair, puffy lips, and wearing my pjs. Whoa, my pjs!

"Um excuse me. What are you doing here and why are you wearing my pjs?" I asked.

"Must protect mate. Must keep her safe. Must kill whoever dares to hurt her." She was growling. This doofus.

I snapped my fingers a few times, catching her attention shortly after. She got about three inches from my face and looked me over. From this angle I could see every part of her face. I took a minute to observe her. She was gorgeous like someone who should be in magazines. She had no blemishes and with sleep in her eyes, she looked more beautiful than anything I have ever seen.

"Now that I have established that you are safe, why are you screaming and disturbing my beauty sleep?" She questioned.

"Like you even need it." I mumbled under my breath.

She raised her perfectly arched brows and smirked. "I heard that mate." I rolled my eyes and said, "whatever." "I don't remember saying you could stay last night." I looked down and saw that she made herself a little place to sleep right next to my bed.

"I, uh, had to make sure you, uh, were safe?" She struggled to speak and I couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing for?" She tried to look angry.

"Your. Face. And. The. Way. You. Stuttered." I said between laughs.

"Yea, well, be quiet."

I stopped laughing. "I don't even know your name. You never told me."

"Forgive me. I am Jessie. And I know you are Anna. Nice to formally meet you mate."

"So you think this is formally?" I raised my brow. "I am still in my dress." I giggled. "And you, you're wearing my pajamas. Why didn't you change me into some?" Before I could catch myself I noticed what I had said. I blushed and watched as Jessie's eyes turned black. She quickly changed the subject.

"I like that sound. The sound of your laughter. It makes me feel dizzy inside."

I didn't know how to respond. She was so... sweet. I found myself liking her more and more and suddenly felt horrible for rejecting her. I felt the sudden urge to move closer to her, but she hasn't even gotten on the bed. The distance made me feel needy. Like I want her right beside me.

"Can you sit next to me? You don't have to but-" and just before I could finish my sentence she jumped on the bed beside me. "Well, that was easy." I noticed that she smelled like honey and caramel. I could feel the lust rise in my lady parts. Her eyes darkened but soon she got a serious look on her face.

"Why did you reject me?" The question hit me like a slap in the face, knocking the lust out of my body. I looked at her for what seemed like forever. I didn't know what to say. Because she's a girl? Because I always wished for a strong, alpha mate? I stayed quiet. I didn't know.

"Honestly Jessie, I have no idea. I was so caught off guard that I didn't have time to really think about it. I just did it. But I am really sorry for doing it. You didn't deserve that." I looked down.

She lifted my face and looked deep into my eyes. They were so... green. I fought the urge to kiss her. A few seconds later her phone rang. She answered and I heard a hushed male voice on the other end. She quickly said bye and hung up. She started getting dressed in a rush.

"Where are you going?" I questioned.

"Oh, I got something I need to do. I'll see you later?"

"That didn't answer my question, but ok. I think I'm just gonna shower and watch some tv. You know, have some chill time."

She nodded her head and just like that she wasn't there anymore. I felt so empty. I hope she comes back soon. I couldn't believe what I was thinking and feeling. I never would've guessed that I would have a female as a mate. I love the thought now.

I decided to jump in the shower and call my parents, who informed me that they would be gone until Thursday. Five whole days to myself. What will I do? I couldn't help but wonder why Jessie left me so fast. I was sort of.. missing her I guess.

'Text her.' A random voice said. I looked around confused.

"Who's there?" I panicked.

'Me, child. Your wolf.'

"I have one of those? Why are you just now showing up?"

'Well, I never really came to until the day we found our mate. I must warn you that in a few months I will release myself. You will accept me and change. And we must choose a mate.'

Choose a mate? I was confused as to what she meant. I have a mate already.

'Soon you will know what I mean. We must choose.'

She didn't say anything else after that. But that was. So. Freaking. Cool! I do have a wolf after all. I made the decision to listen and text Jessie. Maybe she could stay over the days that my parents were gone? Hopefully she wouldn't leave this time so hastily.
