(Ariana POV)
"Hey, can I ask everyone something? Can someone please explain the whole mate thing?"
Everyone stopped eating and Look up to me with a confusion on their face. My brother who seemed to be all wrapped up in Maddie look toward me as well like I had said the stupidest thing in the world.
"What would you like to know about mates?"
"Well Nat, I want to know everything that you know. Like, how does the mate bond work? How can you tell who your mate is? What happens when you find your mate or what if you never find your mate? What is it with this marking your mate does, and do you mark each other? What happens if you or your mate doesn't want to be together?"
They all stared at me like I grew a second head.
"Wow Ariana, you're not asking much are you. So, Consalvo would you like to take a crack at that or maybe you would Nat?"
"I think it be better if Nat takes this for, he seems to be closer to Ariana than I am."
"Thanks a lot Con. Alright give me a few minutes to take all that in. Alright, you do understand how mates are set up?"
"Yes, its the moon goddess who will choice us our mate."
"Yes, it is the moon goddess that set the mates together. A lot of the times we will find our mates either after our first shift or when we turn eighteen years old. The way were able to tell if someone our mate is by smell, by the warm sparks when they touch and even sometimes by just a feeling you get near your mate. The feeling is usually when your too young to have your wolf yet. Its exceedingly rare that a mate doesn't work out, and when it does happen you can always reject that mate, but I think hard before doing so. Now that your brother has found his mate were going to need to talk to their parents and the principal of the school. They are going to have change their sleeping arrangement."
"What are you talking about? Why would the happen?"
"Even though your father has became the Beta to our pack it doesn't change that you and your brother has Alpha blood in you both. A male with Alpha blood is more possessive over their mate than other wolves. He also will have problems being away from her for too long of a time, but all males go through that it's just an Alpha feels it more. That's why I told you that you better hope that your mate isn't an Alpha, especially a royal Alpha.
After we finish our meal and desert my brother called our Dad up to let him know about his mate Maddie, so things worked up about the two of them to have their own rooms. I was cleaning up with Rosa as Maddie and my brother packs up their thing to move in together tomorrow. I was told by Rosa that we should be getting a new roommate, but she's not sure who because she never had this happen before. I was cleaning when I received an unknown phone call that I wasn't sure I should answer.
"Hello?"
"Hi this is Diana Macey and I'm one of the gym teachers at the school, is this Ariana Silverio?"
"Yes, is there something I can do for you?"
"I need to know if you were able to fill out the paperwork that you need to turn in before class starts. If so, will you be able to turn it in tomorrow morning before you go to your assembly. I would very much appreciate it."
"Sure, I will be able to do so just tell me where I can drop them off."
"Good, please drop them at my office that is in the gym room next to the weight training room. I'll be seeing you in about two days."
I now need to make sure all paperwork is filled out right. I wanted to talk to my brother before going to bed like we always do, but now things are different he has a mate and I feel like it will be bothering him if I do so. I decide to just take a fast shower, then get my clothes ready for tomorrow and get to sleep.
'Hey sis, why didnt you say good night before going to bed?'
'Because I didn't want to bother you and Maddie.'
'You idiot, you're never a bother. You're my sister and I love you. Good night pain in my ass and I'll see you at the assembly.'
'Yeah night jerk face, and btw I love you too.'
It took me awhile to get myself to sleep being in a new place, but since I brought my own sheets and blanket with the smell of lavender, I was able to fall asleep. I sadly slept through my alarm, so I had to hurry to get dressed, get my paperwork at the teacher office, and then meet everyone at the assembly. I grabbed a black knitted sweater and dark blue jeans. Pulled my hair up into a loose bun and threw on my black leather boots on to run across the street for the school. When I get into the building, I asked a few people how I can get to Mrs. Macey office and thankfully that they were kind enough to tell me how to get there. Yeah, I got a lot of looks from everyone that I walked by, but I was already warned by Maddie that this will happen. I found the gym room in time and as I walked through it, I see the weight training room. The office across from the room must be her office and as I put all my paperwork onto her desk to start heading to meet up with the others I hear something coming from the weight room, something like moaning. It sounded like a male making the noise and I was hoping that everything was alright. Stupid me wanted to go check it out to make sure nothing bad had happen. As I went for the door, I already can see that it was unlocked and as I walked into the room, I can now hear a female as well. Going further into the room I was hit with the smell of the air after a storm with a hint of cedar wood. I was drawn to that smell and I couldn't help but to keep walking to it. I stopped when I see a guy with short dark hair sitting on a workout bench with his head back reaching his hand out to something in front of him. As I get closer to him trying not to make a sound, I was able to see that there was a crescent moon mark behind his left ear, but what made me so sick to my stomach was that my mate was getting a blow job by a blonde hair slut. I tried my best to get out of there without them knowing I was there, but a whimper noise came out of my mouth before I could get my hand to it. That's when the guy went on full alert as he starts sniffing the air.
"You would decide to come into my life at this moment."
I can see the guy trying to get up for some reason, but he was having trouble as I hear him growling at the girl.
"Marcus baby, whats wrong? Where are you going? We're not done yet."
I wanted to hurt her for calling him baby and before I knew it a small growl escaped my mouth, but I had to keep my mind on getting out of here and now. It's a good thing that I was a fast runnier because I'll need it if I wanted to get out. I ran as fast as I could to get out of the room and out of the building. As I was running, I hear that guy yelling at me to stop and calling me his mate. I just kept running until I ran into something or I can say someone as they grabbed my arms.
"Let go of me or Ill kick your ass."
"Wait Ariana, what's wrong? Why are you so upset?"
I looked up to see that it was Nat and he had concern written all over his face.
"Please talk to me, why are you crying?"
I touched my cheek; I was crying and didn't know it.
"Ariana, whats going on?"
I just wrapped my arms around him and buried my head into his chest crying.
"Come on Ariana, tell me what is wrong?"
"I think I just met my mate."
"Why the tears than, I thought that was a good thing?"
"Not when I find him getting oral sex from a blonde bimbo."
He steps away from me so I can see just how pissed off he is.
"Where is this guy? Tell me where I can find him?"
"Why do you want to know that?"
"Because I'm going to kick his ass!"
"Please don't, its not going to change anything."
"Fine. I can't believe I'm going to encourage this, but you can always reject this prick."
"I just need to get away from here, I just want to curl in my bed and forget everything."
"Ariana, you're really not supposed to leave until the assembly is over, but I'll see if I can get Rosa to get your information."
"Thanks so much, I just want to go back to the apartment and be left alone."
"Alright go back and take a relaxing bath in Rosa bathroom, I know she won't mind that you do."
"I'm so jealous of the girl that will have you for a mate."
He kisses my forehead and then walked into the building.
(Ariana POV) I really don't remember the rest of that day because it went by so fast, too fast for my liking. None of us felt like cooking so we all order takeout food. My brother is busy with Maddie setting up their in-living area. I would have loved to talk to Casmir about this mate thing but knowing him to track this guy down and kill him for hurting me. It hurts because my brother and I never kept anything from each other, now I feel things are changing between us. I decide a quick shower and off too bed I go. I shut down my mind to anyone trying to link me, I just want to be left alone. I'm not sure how long a slept before I hear my door opening, like who the hell would dare to wake me up without getting hurt. "What the hell sis? Why did you shut me out when I was trying to tell you good night? Are you mad at me?"
(Marcus POV) We were both walking by the river hand to hand, just me and my silver rose. The woman I love and wanted to not only spend my life with, but to have my pups with. As we were walking, I watched her silver hair blowing into the wind, her pale porcelain skin glowing in the moonlight, and her musical laughter caressing my ears. Before I knew it, she let go of my hand and started to run ahead of me laughing as she looks back at me wanting me to chase her. I smiled as I started to chase my beautiful mate, but the more I chase the further she got from me until I no longer can see her. I stop to try and pick up her scent of Gardenia and vanilla, but not even a hint of it could be found. Out of nowhere the winds started to pick up to become cold and cruel against the skin on my face. Then it became deadly quiet until a scream cuts into the silent air, and it was my silver rose screaming in pure pain. I ran toward the sound to find her still body lying on the forest floor with blood
(Marcus POV)Before I called my Dad to ask him what I should do, I decide to see why my mate was there in the weight room in the first place. I remember following her scent to Mrs. Diana Macey office, so I decide to go back to see why my mate was there in the first place. That's when I found some paperwork on her desk and found information on her. I found out her name is Ariana Silverio, her wolfs name is Yue and that her wolf is silver. She's the girl in my dreams with the silver hair, and now I know I had really fucked up big time. I hurry out of the building as I called my dad hoping hell know what I can do to fix this."Marcus, whats going on? I wouldn't think you would be calling me so early in the day.""Dad, I really messed up with my mate.""Marcus, please calm down and tell me what exactly happened.""I had that dream again Dad, so I went to work out like I usually do when that happens. As, I was finishing up this female that I can't even remember her name walked in, starts gi
(Ariana POV)I ran back to school to get away from my so-called mate Marcus and just made it to my second hour class before it ended. Mr. Magnar Ragnvald wasn't happy that I was late for the first day of class, but for some reason he didn't punish me for being late. He's the teacher for my werewolf's history class that I really need to take so I can better know about our history. My next class is Creative Writing and my teacher in that class is Mrs. Shade. I was glad I was able to take this class since I've always been rather good at writing and had a lot of time to do so since I really had no friends to hang around. After getting to my fourth hour class t
(Ariana POV)I just sat there while Principal Hermoso Muerte and my so-called mate Marcus pretty much plan out my future living without even asking me what I wanted.“Wait, don’t I have a say in this?”They both just looked at me as if I grew a second head or something.“Ms. Silverio, do you understand how this mate bond works?”“No, not really. I haven’t really lived with other werewolves, so no I have no clue about this world.”I knew this was going to bite me in the butt one day.“Please trust me Ms. Silverio and kno
(Akasma POV)How dare she hang up on me. Who does she think she’s dealing with? I’m going to need to teach my mate to respect me one way or another. I need to go speak to my uncle right now and make him see that it’s in Ariana best interest to be brought home. I know I need to have a talk to my uncle Kenneth how Ariana is not related to our family at all by blood. That she’s really not his daughter nor my cousin and why would he keep this way from everyone.‘Uncle Kenneth, can I see you in my office asap?’‘Yes, I’m on my way right now. Is there a reason that you need to see me?’&lsqu
(Ariana POV) I can tell on his face that he was very confused by what I just asked him, but I need him to mark me because I don’t want my cousin to do so, and I’ll do anything to get him to do so. Even if that means I have to seduce my own mate to do so. It’s funny to watch him having a war with his wolf as he decides to go into the bathroom with me or not, but even if that won’t get him to mark me than I’m just going to do more when we’re in bed together. “My silver rose, I don’t think this is such a great idea for me to be in the bathroom with you at this time.” “Please, you won’t even have to get in the tub with me. Just please be in the bathr
(Sephiroth POV) As I'm waking up thinking to myself on what the hell, am I doing waking up so damn early to go to a high school when I’ll be turning 26 years old this year. It all started about a month ago when I get a phone call from one of my father misters that is the mother to my younger brother Micah. The phone call came at well I guess you can say at a bad time, but in a way, it wasn’t like I was enjoying it anyway. I was in the middle of fucking one of the whores at the club named Amber. I just couldn’t really get into it listening to all her annoying moaning as I fuck her from behind. I even try to tighten my hand on her thr
