"Mate?"
Uttering that one simple word from my lips made me shiver a little. How can this be possible, in all my four past lives that was the only thing that I never found. And I was happy that I never met my mate because I am cursed.
My life might be beautiful for a moment with a fated love but what of when I die and get reborn somewhere else. I can't bear the pain of living my life with the memories of what user to be, of who I used to have. It is already too much to be without my family knowing that they are still alive and out there somewhere. I don't want to go through the same pain again.
"What are you thinking about?" the vampire asked bringing me out of my thoughts. I looked up to see his shadow sitting on the window. I am not able to see his looks since the room was dark but from his aura i can tell that he is powerful. I can't tell if he is more powerful than me though.
"Nothing."
"Is that why you have been silent for half an hour now. You haven't said a word since you confirmed that I am your mate," he said.
"What do you think about all this. About us being fates to each other?" I ask getting serious.
"There is nothing of it. I don't want to be with you," he said plainly. If I said that him rejecting me didn't hurt a bit would be a lie. Even if I am not interested in this mate thing, it's still hurts for him to reject me just like that.
"Why?" I ask curious as to why he would reject me without thinking about it.
"For many reasons that are not important for you to know. But all you need to know is that vampires and werewolves aren't allowed to be together and if anyone were to find out about our bond then none of us will be spared," he explained.
"Then what would you suggest we do?"
"I think that we should break the bond. From the way you reacted upon finding out I can tell that you don't want this either."
"But breaking a bond is dangerous, I have read a lot about it and if not done right then the both of us can lose our lives," I said not because I am afraid of death because of the curse, i will surely be reborn but needs to know since his death might be permanent.
"I am willing to take that chance but I think we should go through with it. But until we do that no one should know about this bond we share."
"Alright."
We spent the next hour in the room. We didn't talk at all, he sat in the corner and remained by the window. It was peaceful and quite in the room. I stared at the moon with so many questions in my mind and in my eyes. I had slot to ask the so called moon goddess.
It feels like she is playing some sick game with me. She knows everything that is going in in my life but still she sent a mate my way.
"Looking at the moon won't make her talk to you," the vampire said. I ignored him and continued gazing at the stars in the sky.
I got out of the classroom and went in search of Bella so we can go home. I have stayed at the party long enough, I look around the party but my eyes can't spot either Bella or my cousins anywhere in the party. The people are dancing around like crazy. There are those making out in the corners and the bold ones are doing it out in the open. I can't bear to be in this environment any longer.
Taking my phone from my pocket I text her to inform her that I would be leaving. I didn't specify that I was going home because I don't intent to return home immediately. I need some time to think over all the things that have been happening since i moved into town.
I walk down the streets of this lonely town. Other than the school where the party is keeping everything lively the rest of it is silent. The homes are quite and the streets are empty. The walk is silent and gives me time to think.
The things that I need figured out; my mate being on top of the list, my aunt and uncle who I have met before but can't seem to remember how.
I walked into the woods and remover my clothes and transformed into my werewolf form and went for a ran in the woods. The wind blowing through my fur calmed my mind and helped me to relax. It was a fun ran.
I stopped to catch my breath and transform back to my human self at the end of the cliff. The air here was fresh, I was free when I am in a place like this. I squatted down and placed my hand on the ground. I tried to feel the magic in the land and the ancestors that laid underneath.
"Beware of the child with the mark of the lion and the wolf for with it he shall destroy the children of the night," I heard the ancestors whisper among themselves.
I removed my hand on the ground and stood up. The problems of the ancestors is none of my business, getting involved in their issues is the last thing that I would ever want. With them once you get involved with them they never stop troubling you with every little thing that they need done for eternity.
They are absolutely the worse, I would know since I have been with them for a while four times. I just don't like how demanding they are in the name of protecting their own.
"The harvest is coming, the seven must be chosen," they said.
"A harvest. It seems that I walked into town at a very bad time."
The harvest is the perfect recipe for disaster, the next few days are going to be nothing but problems from the peaceful life that I want.
