He's a Lycan and I'm his mate. I'm not even sure if we had s*x, but doesn't that tie me to him in some sort of way? This is scaring me. I saw my clothes folded on one corner of the bed, I slowly grabbed them and got dressed.
"You still must be in shock of the information you processed." he says.
I nodded stiffly at him.
"How about I go make you some tea?" he smiles.
I nodded once again, and before I knew it I had the room all to myself. I quickly looked around and saw my shoes and bag on the floor. I wore my shoes and swung my bag over my shoulder. I slowly opened the window and looked down. I was quite high for where we are but going down seems to be possible without breaking anything or killing myself.
I just have to get out of this situation right now. If he wanted to find me he can and he will. I carefully stepped outside of the window and made my way down. I made sure to be careful about what I stepped on, and how loud I was. In folktales, his kind had extraordinary senses. I finally made it down and ran as fast as I could to the exit.
I looked back at the mansion and saw him looking out the window. He knew, and he's letting me go? I frowned a bit, and focused on going back. I went out the gate and I was surrounded by forests. The scenery was beautiful and scary at the same time. I started running straight ahead, believing this could be the way out but I was faced with a dead end. It seemed to me that no matter where I ran I was faced with a dead end. I groaned in frustration.
"If you wanted to leave, you could've just told me." his voice suddenly chimes from behind me.
I think I said about every curse word that I knew and spat everything at him.
"Language." he warns "Do you really want to leave?"
His voice dripped with heartbreak and leaving him like this hurts me more than it should be, but I am human and I would still like to process this on my own. I'm pretty sure he already owns me for the rest of my life, just let me have a few weeks on my own.
"I will respect your wishes." he said.
Before I knew it was back in my room, and in one piece. Wait a minute... Did he just teleport me to my house? How would he even know where I lived? WAIT. HE TELEPORTED ME? What in the name of all things good and holy is going on here?
I shook my head and decided to get ready for bed. I stripped off my clothes and looked at my body in the mirror. I had a bite mark on my neck and a lot of hickeys on my body. I guess this confirms the suspicion of us having intercourse. I sighed heavily. I washed myself clean and put my pyjamas on. I climbed into the warmth of my duvet and closed my eyes.
Tomorrow would be a better day. Would it?
I drifted off to sleep and woke up to my alarm. With my eyes still closed and tried to look for my phone and turn my alarm off. I sat up and stretched and started getting ready for school.. I grabbed my bag and waited for my bus like always. There was not a lot of people at this time, and I guess that's okay. At least it won't be crowded by too much people. I sighed to myself.
The bus came and I got in. A few minutes into the travel my body felt heavy and weak. I grunted quietly, and a few people looked my way. I quietly disguised it as a quiet cough and gave them a small bow as a sign of my apology. The trip to school was unbearable, as soon as I got off the bus I tried so hard to make my way to the clinic so I'd be able to lie down.
"Hey, Nina!" Sarah greeted.
Oh God, if you do exist why now? I just want to lie down.
"You look pale, Nina. Do you want to go to the clinic?" she asked.
I nodded stiffly, kind of too afraid to say or move too much. I felt like my body was going to collapse at any second. Sarah put my arm around her and hoisted me up. She helped me make my way to the clinic and let me lie down slowly.
I looked at the time and noticed that it was almost time for class. I looked at Sarah.
"You should go, it's time for class. I'll just stay here for a while and get some rest." I assured her.
"If you say so, but I will be back to check on you, okay?" she calls out as she heads out of the clinic.
I don't understand why I feel so weak all of a sudden. I don't understand if it's because of the shock that I experienced yesterday. I closed my eyes and even at this point all I could think about was Damien. What's wrong with me? I don't understand anything anymore. I took a deep breath and tried to sleep, then I felt a warm hand on my face. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Damien beside my bed.
"Damien." I whispered.
"Do you feel better now?" he slowly asks.
I blinked and looked away from him. I was feeling better, I no longer felt weak nor dying. I looked back at him and was about to bombard him with a million questions.
"It was because of the mate bond. I felt it too. We can't really be away from each other or this will continue to happen." he explains as if he was reading my thoughts.
"What are you trying to say?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Come live with me." he says.
