My Mate From Another World

Adeline

“Love, you look tired,” Mike said. I was in his house, lying on his couch, while he was making himself busy in the kitchen. What I like about him is that he accustomed himself to a woman’s chores since he knew that I wouldn’t be able to do that for him.

“Just some pack matters,” I replied, and then I saw him put down the cotton cloth he was holding. Then he went to the refrigerator and took out a flask before coming to me.

“Here, drink this,” he said as he handed it to me. I smiled, took it from him, and started to sip. “Lemon juice is your favorite,” he said, smiling.

“Thank you so much.”

“You’re most welcome,” he replied before he went back to the kitchen and continued doing whatever he was doing. “You rest and relax because I am making you your favorite mac and cheese.”

“Wow, you’re so sweet.”

“Anything for my love,” he replied happily. My heart sank after seeing the look on his face. My eyes never left him, and I followed his every movement. He was so swift that anyone would think he was an expert when it came to cooking, but the truth is, he only learned it because of me. Because he knew that I was not an ordinary woman and might not have a chance of doing it for him. He understands that I am a warrior, a fighter for my pack.

In a couple of weeks, it was going to be a blue moon, and I began to worry. What if Milka and Kaiser, as well as Dad, were right? What if I suddenly feel like leaving this man for my mate? I was looking at him, and he suddenly glanced at me, giving me a sweet smile. I got up from my seat and approached him. “I want to watch you,” I said, sitting on the vacant chair in front of him.

“That’s something new,” he replied, which made me crease my forehead. “I know you’re not the type to stay in the kitchen. So, tell me, what’s bothering you?” he asked as he put the mac and cheese in the oven and sat on a chair in front of me.

“I was just thinking, you’re done schooling and working as a freelancer, so you have a lot of time on your hands.”

“Not exactly,” he replied, taking my hands that were on top of the table, bringing them to his lips, and kissing them. “I have time because I made time for you. I want to be free most of the time, so when you want to see me, I will have the energy and the time to spend with you.” I smiled, almost teary, after hearing that. How can I hurt this wonderful man who loves me for who and what I am?

“You love me that much?” I asked, trying not to choke on my own words.

“Of course! I never loved a woman like crazy before. For me, you’re my everything, and I only want the best for you.”

“I don’t know what I will do without you, Mikee..” I replied, and he chuckled.

“You’re the strongest woman I’ve ever known. Why are you suddenly acting this way, love?”

“Nothing. I was just worried about the pack’s business, that’s all.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“You know that you can always count on me, right? I am here, ready to listen if there’s something you’re not comfortable with or need answers to.”

“I know. But I really have no problem. Just a plain pack matters. You heard all the killings that have been happening around the border, right?’ He nodded, and for a moment, I couldn’t help but feel worried for him. What if whoever that man is, comes to him? Or would he take him to Kaiser’s world?

“Alright, if you say so. I am not going to pry anymore. Just make sure to keep yourself safe all the time.”

“Of course, I would like to see you at the end of the day,” I replied, smiling, even if I started to worry about him.

The mac and cheese were done, and we ate them together. He is a good cook, and everything he makes for me is very satisfying. Sometimes he would act like my father, nagging at me about trivial matters because he was worried about me for being stubborn. I would only laugh at him the way I did at Dad, but he would roll his eyes at me, and the goddess knows how much he looks so appealing when he does that.

We were washing the dishes when my phone rang. I saw Milka’s number, so I had to take it. “Hello,” I said after I distanced myself from Mike.

“Where are you? Are you with Mike?” she asked,

“Yeah, why?”

“Are you talking to him right now? Are you going to break up with him already?”

“No! Of course not!” I exclaimed a little louder, so I looked at Mike, and I was right; he heard me because he was looking at me with a creased forehead. I smiled at him before giving him a thumbs up, indirectly telling him that everything was fine. “How can you ask that?” I whispered.

“I already told you, Adeline. You will only hurt him if you do not stop your relationship with him,” she said,

“I appreciate your concern, Milks. But I can’t do what you want. I can’t hurt him.”

“Yes, for now. But you will after you find your mate,” she replied.

“Why did you really call?” I asked, annoyed. I am tired of people around me telling me what to do with my relationship with Mike.

“I’m just trying to make sure that you’re not going to do anything stupid,” she replied.

“What do you think I will do?” I asked, confused.

“Nothing. I said just in case, right?” She replied sarcastically, so I rolled my eyes internally.

“I’ll hang up; I have to help Mike wash the dishes.”

“You! Washing the dishes?” she exclaimed.

“You know what? Bye.” I said that and ended the call. I was shaking my head while I walked back to Mike, who was now grinning, probably thinking that Milka teased me.

“I’m done here, so let’s go to the living room and watch a movie,” Mike said as he wiped his hands dry.

“I was supposed to help you out.”

“It’s fine; you can’t ignore calls, you know.” He is very understanding; that’s why I feel more guilty.

We sat on the couch and started to play the movie that we had been planning to watch for a very long time now, but that got delayed because of the killing incident around the border.

Mike’s hand was around me while I leaned on his chest. I am an independent woman, but I could still feel security whenever we were like this. Yes, he’s a human, but just like my brother and father, I knew how much he cared and loved me.

With that thought, I raised my head and saw him looking at me. I smiled at him, and he smiled back at me. I reached for his face, and as a gentleman as he is, he lowered his head, which made our lips meet. My eyes closed when I felt his tender lips touch mine. It was gentle at first until it became wanton.

I felt his hand roam around my body as I kissed him back. I moved from the couch to his lap, feeling his hardness. He wanted me, and so did I. His hands, which are now massaging my breasts, give sensation to my entire body. There’s no doubt that I love him so much. I forgot about my interdimensional travel, Kaiser, and everything because of what he was doing, and I started to take off his shirt.

His lean and muscular body was so perfect; as a human, he maintained his physique pretty well. My eyes landed on the crook of his neck, and I don’t know what came into me, but I suddenly felt the urge to mark him. Without thinking, my head dove onto his neck as I extracted my fang and bit him.
