Grayson:
"Good morning!" I say.
"More like good afternoon. It's 3:00 PM!" She exclaims. "Prince Gabriel's ball is today. You have to be ready by 6:00 PM," She reminds me."Actually... I met him at the soccer match yesterday..." I say."Really? Is he your mate?" She asks excitingly."Ex-mate. He rejected me! Isn't that great?!" I exclaim joyfully. Her eyes went wide."Rejected you? What?" She asks in disbelief. I nod proudly."So that means I don't have to go to the ball, right?" I ask. She shakes her head."Nope, you are going young lady. You can find your second chance mate!" She says. I groan. "Nope, I'm not going," I declare. She glares at me."Grayson Ember Vasquez Lopez!" She screams. If you're wondering about my last name, then lemme explain: My mom was white, and my dad was half-Hispanic and half-white. So I guess I'm a quarter Hispanic."You are going to the ball whether you like it or not!" She yells. I roll my eyes, grabbing some bacon strips and going upstairs to my room. Aunt Cassie is really ticking me off. So I'm gonna tick her off more...*Time skip*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~It's 6:20 PM right now. I'm purposely late just to tick off Aunt Cassie. Bonus: I'm wearing cargo pants and a tank top. I put on my brown contact lenses and slip a dagger in my boot, just in case. I walk out the door, and Aunt Cassie's jaw drops to the floor. "We're too late now, I can't go change into a dress," I say. She huffs and turns around."Fine, but I do not know you, ok?" She says. I roll my eyes and look at Adrianna; she was wearing a short purple dress, and black heels. She was intently staring outside. I lean close to her."What's on your mind?" I ask her. She gasps in surprise, but calms down as she sees me."Nothing... I was just wondering if Prince Gabriel is my mate..." She sighs dreamily. Maybe he gets a second chance mate. Maybe it'll be my sister. Chances are low, but it's still possible, right?"Boo. I don't get why people want mates. They're just... They're just gonna control your life and everything you do," I tell her."But they'll love you and protect you forever, and you'll have their pups, and-" I cut her off:"Ew. Nope, that's just gross," I say. She rolls her eyes and look back at the window. After an eternity of boredom, we finally arrive to the Midnight Royalty castle. As as we walk in, everyone looks at me weirdly."Outfit game on point," I say to Grace. She giggles in response. I notice a guy with a bandage on his leg; the same guy I threw a dagger at. I try to stifle a laugh at his helplessness. He glares at me in anger."Hey! You're the one who threw a dagger at me!" He yells. "Well sorry for defending myself," I say, putting my hands up. He looks me up and down, licking his lips. Did he really just do that? Even after I threw a dagger at him?"What's your name beautiful?" He asks. "My name is... Jess.. ica... Jessica. Jessica Andrews," I lie. "Well Jessica, nice to meet you. My name's Brent Meyers." He says with a wink. Ew. Make it stop. It's so loud in here... My head is hurting. I don't like noise."Uh, I gotta use the washrooms, nice talking to ya," I say nervously, walking to an empty area. I notice a random door, and I open it. I see a huge balcony, and I run over to the edge and place my hands on the railing. I breathe in the fresh air. I hear a growl and I turn around. I see the infamous 'Prince Gabriel' sitting by the doorway. Woah. I walked right past him without noticing."Oh sorry. Do you want me to leave?" I ask him."No, stay," he says. I shrug and turned back around, staring at the landscape."Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at the ball looking for your mate?" I ask."I already found her.”"Then shouldn't you guys be on stage right now, announcing everyone about your... Mateness," I say. I don't even know if 'mateness' is a word, but whatever."I'll wait for a while before announcing everyone about our 'mateness'," He said. Fair enough. I place my hands back on the railing, peering at a faraway forest. I could see some deers running around, and a few owls flying by. That forest looks cool. I think I'm gonna go run there later, when everyone is occupied by the Prince and his mate.Suddenly, two large hands are placed on top of mine, covering my hands. "Mine," I hear someone growl right behind me. I elbow the intruder in the rib, hearing him groan in pain. I run as fast as I could to the ballroom, not turning to see who it was. I run through the crowd, and I was about to run out the main entrance door, when two hands grabbed my waist, pulling me into someone's chest.I started squirming and kicking as the intruder picked me up and started walking somewhere else."No, you can't do this! Help! Let go of me!" I yell, getting everyone's attention. I'm causing a scene, but I don't give a shit. I quickly grab my dagger from my boot, and I was about to plunge it right into his heart, when someone else grabs my wrist. "If you're gonna kill him, you'll do it under my dead body!" The other intruder says. I stare at him. He's one of the creepy 4 men from the soccer match yesterday."Well if you insist.” I try to stab the dagger in his chest. He dodges it, and the dude that's picking me up growls and pulls me closer to him. The other intruder knocks my dagger out of my hand, leaving me defenceless. Oh shit.The dude holding me starts walking away, carrying me."Wait no! I want my dagger back! Help needed! Someone call 911! Please!!!" I yell as he carries me upstairs, away from the ball room. He brings me in another room, while I desperately try to get out of his grip. He drops me on a bed, allowing me to finally see who he is...Grayson:Oh! It's the magnificent Prince Gabriel. Please note the sarcasm. "Bruh, I thought you found your mate already!" I say. He just glares at me."Yeah, it's you. I, Gabriel Daemon Lupa hereby accept you as my mate," He states. Ew, no."Nope, I'm out. Peace!" I say, walking towards the door. He jumped in front of me, blocking the door. "Come on, I thought we were cool, man. I thought you rejected me, and we were going to live happily freely after," I say."Sorry, but I changed my mind.""What if I reject you?" I ask."Pffft... I dare you," he says."Well, a dare is a dare... I,-" I started, but was cut off by him jumping on my and covering my mouth with his hand. "No, if you reject me, I will not hesitate to mark you right here," He growls. I try to respond, but my voice is muffled by his hand."What's your name?" He asks, removing his hand."Uh, Francesca," I lie. He furrows his eyebrows."Are you saying the truth?" He asks suspiciously."Yeahhh..." I lie again. "I can
Grayson: So now, we're sitting in Prince Gabriel's room."Hey, wanna play 20 questions?" He asks me."Ok fine, I start. What's your wifi password?" I ask, pulling out my phone. He sighs and takes his phone out. After scrolling through some stuff, he says:"C43 98S MW1," He replies."Ok my turn. Can you tell me your name?" He asks."Yes I can. My turn, how old are you, like, 30?" I ask, smirking. He glares at me."I'm 18... And you didn't answer my question," He states. "Yes I did, you didn't ask me what's my name, you asked me if I can tell you my name," I say. He rolled his eyes."What's your name?' He asks."My name is a noun. Just like every other name," I say, smirking. He groans in annoyance."Do you have any siblings?" I ask."Yeah, Lilly and Micheal. Lilly's 5 years old and Micheal is 12," He says. I nod understandingly."How do you spell your name?" He asks. Wow he's really desperate to know my name..."With letters. Duh.”"Fuck it," He says. I smile in victory."What's your
Gabriel:When we arrive to the room, I lock the door and stand infront of it, making sure she can't escape."I'm tired," She states. "Well let's go to sleep then," I reply, sitting on the bed."Uh, nope. I ain't sleeping next to you," She says. I sigh."Fine. You sleep here, I'll sleep somewhere else," I tell her."Sure, just lemme get my pajamas- Oh right, I don't have anything to sleep in," She states. "You can wear one of my shirts," I say, opening my closet and grabbing a plain black shirt, throwing it at her. She catches it, and looks at it."Ok, but what about pants?" She asks."I think that shirt will be enough," I reply, smirking."Are you saying that I'm short?" She questions. "Well, you are," I state. She huffs and walks over to me, stopping right infront of me. The top of her head came up to the level of my eyes. I have to admit, she's taller than other girls in this pack."I am not short," She states. I roll my eyes."Whatever you say, midget," I say to annoy her. She g
Grayson:"Please? I'm not even going to sleep in the same bed as you, I promise," Prince Shithead asks for the millionth time. I groan, throwing my head back."Fine." He lets out a sigh of relief, smiling. I walk to the bathroom and close the door. I just got convinced to sleep in the same room as him. That means... I can't escape tonight... I'll try again tomorrow; I'm dead tired from all that running. By sleeping here, I have to take a big risk. I take off my contact lenses, throwing them in the toilet and flushing them. I stare at the mirror: nope. This is all kinds of nope. I hate my eyes. I walk out the bathroom and immediately go onto the bed, so that Prince Shithead can't see them. I know I hate him, but no one deserves to see these hideous orbs. "Can I sleep on the bed?" He asks softly. "Sure thing, just lemme go back home to sleep in my own bed," I reply. He sighs, and walks over to a couch in the corner, turning off the lights. I could feel his stare burning holes in my
Gabriel:Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.I groan as my alarm goes off. I turn it off, before realizing that I'm in my couch. I glance over at my bed and see her sleeping, on her stomach, all spread out. Her... I don't even know her name. I got up and walked over to her. She looked so... I don't know, pretty, I guess?"Our mate isn't just pretty. She's beautiful," Gavin says. "Yeah but, isn't it too early to call her beautiful?" I ask."She's our mate! I already knew she was beautiful before we even met her!" Gavin exclaims. I roll my eyes and check my phone. FUCK, I'm getting late! I don't even have time to shower! I quickly ran ran to my closet and threw on a pair of jeans and a shirt before running to my office to do some Alpha shit, grabbing some coffee along the way. So much fucking paperwork to do! Sometimes I hate being an Alpha. But hey, all the girls go all over me for it. After finally finishing my work, I walk in my room and close the door behind me, dropping my bag
Grayson:So now we're driving back to hell the castle. I'm repetitively hitting my head back on the seat."Don't do that," Prince Shithead growls. "You'll hurt yourself, love," He adds in a softer tone. I stop hitting my head on the seat for a second, and started hitting my head on the window instead. "Grayson," He says in a deep, threatening voice. I look at him, still hitting my head on the window. "I'll make you sit on my lap if I have to," He states. I roll my eyes."You'll make me sit on your lap if you want us to die in a car accident," I reply sharply. He sighs."Why do you have to be so complicated?" "Hey! I'm not complicated! I just like having freedom," I state. I'm still hitting my head against the window."You'll get your freedom when I know that you won't run away from me."After a while of driving, he abruptly stops the car and unbuckles my seat belt. Before I have time to react, he pulls me onto his lap, with my legs in between his, and starts driving again. I look up
Grayson: "Let's go to sleep," Prince Shithead says."Not on the same bed, alright?" He frowns."Please?" "No.""Mates are supposed to sleep together," He pleads."But we're not-" I say, but get interrupted by him:"We are mates, we'll sleep on the same bed.""Hey, what if like, we meet a human. Like, what are you gonna say to that person?" I ask."What do you mean?" He asks."Like, how are you gonna say that we're 'mates' to them?" "I'll say that your my girlfriend," He says. I furrow my brows."I'm not your girlfriend.""Yes you are. End of discussion," He says."No I'm not," I argue."Well that's too bad. I'll only let you watch the UEFA EURO 2016 Final if you agree to be my girlfriend," He says, smirking. I huff."Fine. You're my girlfriend.""Wait, what?""We're girlfriends. End of discussion,""No that's not what I m-" He starts."-You said that you'll lemme watch the Final if we became girlfriends," I cut him off."No I said if you become my girlfriend," He responds."I am yo
Grayson:"Wanna go have dinner with the rest of the pack again?" Prince Shithead asks. Uhhhhhhhhh... I didn't want to offend him by saying that his pack is a bunch of assholes, but truly I'd rather skip dinner than get roasted over there again.Prince Shithead must've read my thoughts or something."Or maybe we could just order some pizza and stay here. If you want," He adds. A tiny smile made its way on my face."Sure," I reply. A few minutes later, we were laying on the bed an empty box of pizza."I'm full," I state, chewing on the crust of my last pizza."Same here," He responds. He ate 5 slices, and I ate 3. We both stayed silent for a while."Thanks," I finally say. He looks at me, confused."For what?" He asks. I shrug."For not making me go down there," I answer. He chuckles."I didn't want to go there either. Delilah's such a pain in the ass. I can't believe that I used to date her," He says."You were dating her?" I ask in disbelief. Well, I don't know why I'm surprised, I m
