My Mates Fight For My Heart

Eighteen

Blair's POV

I wake up with a voice in my head. It feels funny, like I have another part to me. I am excited as I know the voice in my head is my wolf! I got a wolf! I am so excited. I thought about the Moon Goddess and what she said at the lake. Today my life will change, and the first change is that I got my wolf. I do not know if I should tell my mother, but I do not think she will care. I put on the dress the Moon Goddess gave me and let my hair down. Today is my special day, and I do not care what anyone thinks. They can bully me as much as they like. I feel free if there is something special about today.

"Little one, you are beautiful, and I am your wolf. My name is Shadow. I will be by your side no matter what," Shadow, my wolf, says.

"Hi, Shadow. I am so glad to have you with me. At least I will not feel so lonely anymore," I say.

"Oh, I have been watching your life, honey, and I will not allow anyone to mess with you again. You deserve so much more," Shadow says. I walk into the kitchen, and my mother sits at the table. She looks up and frowns.

"What do you have on? Are you trying to get a mate? Don't let me laugh! You are a hybrid, and no one will ever want you," My mother says.

"Keep your mouth shut b***h," My wolf growls at my mother. My mother looks at me in shock, stumbling back as if afraid of me.

"What is your wolf's name?" My mother asks.

"My name is Shadow. Yes, that Shadow! The special one everyone always wants, but your daughter got me, and you better be careful what you do or say to her," Shadow growls. I have no idea what is going on.

"I am stunned," My mother says.

"Hahaha, the Moon Goddess heard your daughter's pleas, has seen her tears and gave me to her. From now on, you will never lift your bloody hands for your daughter. Do you understand me?" Shadow growls again.

"I am sorry," My mother says as she moves away from me.

"What is going on?" I ask.

"Your wolf is the one everyone wanted. She is powerful and is given to the best leaders in the supernatural world. I do not understand, as you are not a leader," My mother says.

"Of course, she is a leader. She will show you all one day, but at the moment, she has two mates, and she will have to choose who she wants," Shadow says.

"Two mates? I do not even want one!" I say. As I walk outside, the bus stops for me today. Even though I wear a dress, they must know who I am. Why stop for me today? I walk past the bus and walk to school.

"Blair, get in. We are waiting for you," The bus driver shouts.

"I will rather walk. You never wait for me, so why today?" I ask.

"I am sorry I was always so mean to you. Please let me drive you to school," The bus driver says. I ignore him and walk away, and I hear him sigh as he closes the bus doors and drives away. What the hell is it with everyone today? Why are they so friendly to me? Can they feel my wolf?

"Oh, they can feel me, honey, and they are all very sorry about how they treated you. I am a special wolf. I am a warrior wolf. I am only given to the strongest and the best of the wolves, but you are even more special as you are a hybrid and have a strong wolf. I know your vampire side is as strong as I am, and the wolves and vampires will fear you as you are meant to be with someone special. You have two mates, and you will see it today. You will need to choose the right one that is worthy of you. You will have to choose the one that can handle your strength, and that will treat you right," Shadow says.

"What if I do not want any one of them?" I ask.

"Then maybe they are not the ones for you, and you will have to wait for the right one," Shadow says.

"Well, we will see. It is my choice," I say.

"Yes, it is your choice, and you will have to pick right," Shadow says.

I walk into the school, and my heart sinks into my shoes as the first person I see is Lorens. He is standing with his mean friends at the door of the school. I know they are ready to beat me up as I kicked him in the balls two days before, and my mother kept me out of school yesterday. I walk in, and I act like I do not give a f**k.

"Mate!" Lorens says. I look behind me and see Emily standing behind me. So, at last, they are mates.

"Lorens! Honey! I have been waiting for those words for so long! I accept you," Emily shouts.

"Not you, b***h! Her!" Lorens says, pointing to me.

"The hybrid?" Emily asks, and she looks as stunned as I feel.

"Blair Blake, I Loren ..." He starts.

"Stop! Please don't do it. I will reject you. You will have to prove to me that you are worthy of being my mate before you even try to accept me," I say. I do not want him to accept me as his mate as I still do not know who my other mate is, and I do not believe I can give him a fair chance as he was always my bully. I remember my wolf's advice that I need to choose carefully.

"You are not serious! Blair, please can we talk," Lorens asks me. I ignore him and walk away. Wow, I did not expect that. I move to my locker and see the vampires standing there. I swear if that Oliver hits my hands in my locker again, I will crush his balls. Oliver stares at me and does nothing.

"Blair! You are my mate," He says.

"No, I am not," I say. So these two bullies are my mates!

"Yes, you are, and I know you feel it, too," Oliver says. My wolf side rejects him, and my vampire side shouts out to him, but again, my wolf side wants Lorens, and my vampire side does not. I am confused, and my whole life, as I knew it, had been turned upside down. My human side does not want either of them and tells me to follow my heart. None of them are touching my heart at the moment.

"I don't. You and Lorens need to stay away from me. The one that proves to me that he is my true mate will become my mate," I say.

"What do you mean Lorens and me?" Oliver asks.

"Well, apparently, you both think you are my mates," I say.

"That is bullshit! I am your mate, and I know you feel it!" Oliver says. Natasha, his girlfriend for years, looks at Oliver and starts crying.

"How can the hybrid be your mate? I thought we hated her! I thought you were my mate," Natasha says.

"Well, Natasha, I am not your mate. I used you and found my real mate, and I can not help how I feel about it. You are not the one for me. I can feel her vampire side growing stronger, and she is much stronger than you. I am in love with Blair, not you," Oliver says. I look at him, and he instantly loses about half my respect. How can I be with a creature that uses others that he does not even love?

"Well, I am neither of your mates as yet. I will choose who I want later," I say, and I pray to the Moon Goddess that I do not have to choose any of them. Why do I not feel blessed but cursed?

"Well, I will win your heart. I promise you that, my darling," Oliver says.

"No, you will not. I will win her heart," Lorens says from behind me.

"Oh please, two days ago you tripped me and let me into a trap so your girlfriend could bet me up, and now you want me. As for you, you slammed my hands into my locker, and you and your friends always made fun of me. You used Natasha as your mate and let her down so easily. I do not think I want any of you as my mates," I say.

I walk to class, and the rest of the day is strange for me as everyone suddenly wants to be my friend and sits with me. I do not go to the cafeteria as usual as I know I will not get food. The lady at the cafeteria brings me food outside and asks me to forgive her for always being rude. I am not used to eating during the day, so I turn it down. She looks at me and looks sad.

"What? Why do you suddenly look so sad because I turned your food down? Didn't you tell me I was not worthy of your food when I started attending this school? I do not understand why everyone is treating me differently. What the f**k is wrong with you?" I ask.

"You do not know who or what you are, do you?" The cafeteria lady asks.

"I am the same girl I was yesterday, and just because I got a wolf, everyone is treating me like someone different," I say.

"It is because your wolf is one of the strongest wolves in history, and she is only given to special wolves," The lunch lady says.

"Well, I am still the hybrid you all hated," I say.

"No, honey, you are special," The lunch lady says again.

"Suddenly, I am good enough for you, but I do not care. Just leave me alone like you always did," I say. I do not want to be rude, but they always treated me like s**t. I do not have friends, and I do not want friends. I do not want my two bullies to be my mates. I feel better about myself, but at the same time, I feel strange. My vampire side also feels much stronger. What is happening to me? I know I can not stay in this place after school. If I accept one of them as my mate, I will have to stay here with the creatures that always hated me for who and what I was. I am not sure I want that.

Sitting alone outside, I see Lorens and his gang walking toward me. I get up to walk away, but Lorens runs to me and grabs me around my waist. I try pushing him away, but he holds on to me and looks like he is in love. When I was younger, I had a crush on him, and I used to cry my eyes out when he was so nasty to me. Now, I do not care for him. Although my wolf feels a little excited, my vampire side feels angry at him, as if he does not have the right to touch me.

"Take your hands off her, wolf," I hear Oliver from behind us.

"Make me," Lorens says.

"Stop it! Both of you stay away from me! I will make my decision later. I told you!" I shout at them. I push harder, and Lorens lets go of me when Oliver attacks him. My two biggest bullies are fighting over me, and I wouldn't say I like it.

"I hope you feel proud of yourself for having two mates! You are nothing but a w***e," Natasha shouts at me as she storms away. I feel bad for Natasha as she and Oliver were always together. I can not blame her for hating me. Lorens and Oliver are fighting, and I step in between them.

"Stop it! If you do not stop this s**t right now, I will reject both of you," I say. They stop fighting but glare at each other.

"Well, you better make your choice fast, darling, or I will make it for you and kill the bloody wolf," Oliver says.

"Haha, like you can kill me, bloodsucker," Lorens says. I ignore them and walk away. I want this day to be done with. Maybe tomorrow, everything will be back to normal.
