1. My Mate

1804 Words
Bella's p.o.v The past hundred years I have always done the same thing.  I wake up early, dress up, have breakfast, and leave for work.  I'm Bella, a pure-blood witch, for years I and my kind have been in hiding, those stories of how humans burn witches are not just stories, they are so real, not only are we in fear of humans, we are also needed and used by other supernaturals that's the reason why we never show our powers unless we are in danger.  I'm only a hundred years old but because of the pureblood in me I look way younger than my age, I look around twenty years old, one thing I have learnt in all my hundred years is, no one is a true friend, only trust yourself.  I walked in our cafe with a deep sigh, I was getting so bored with this life, Andy and I are old friends, Andy is a vampire who i met fifty years ago, we later decided to run a cafe other than doing nothing, it was fun for the first five years but now, it was getting annoying.  My family lives in another country, we have never stayed for long in one place because people take notice of our slow aging, this place is the longest I have ever stayed, I'm planning on shifting soon.  I went into the staff room to change when I felt hands massage my shoulders.  "Andy stop" I whispered as I closed my eyes enjoying the massage.  "I know you love this," he said lowly.  Yes, I loved it, I mean who couldn't? It was a freaking massage in the morning.  "I told you beautiful, if you were to date me I would treat you like a queen, not only do I know of your identity, I like you, plus I'm super rich" he whispered while kissing my shoulder.  I quickly opened my eyes and turned facing him.  "Not this again Andy, it's way too early, how many times will I say this to you? I'm not after your wealth I too I'm rich, I really like you as a Friend nothing more, I don't care about your looks or powers, so let's just drop it and get to work" I said with a low sigh.  "Bella I understand, but you really need a man, you are not getting any younger," he said with a soft laugh.  "Says the man whose a hundred years old, don't be funny, now leave I want to change" I answered seriously, giving him my most vicious look.  "Fine hot stuff, I will leave for now," he said as he walked out.  I quickly locked the room and got my uniform from the lockers, I stripped off my clothes and put on my uniform.  My uniform was what I hated at work, not only was it a short dress showing off my long legs and almost thighs, the colour was hideous, pink, like really? I hated pink, it didn't match my long blond hair or brown eyes, it made me feel stupid because of my height, I was 6'0 tall, luckily the men that took interest in me and approached me were all taller than me.  I sighed lowly while I fixed my hair into a ponytail.  Andy was an amazing guy, the thing I despised about him was that he was and is a f**k boy, all he really wants and cares about is to get in my pants, not only mine he usually gets in our customers and many ladies pants.  But I can't seem to blame the guy, he's hot, standing at 6'3, broad shoulders and freaking cool muscles, he looks great in any type of clothes and his dark grey eyes always makes me a little bit uncomfortable.  "Hey Blondy, I have opened the cafe, now time to work" he yelled out loud.  That's why I loved being single, men at times were so damn annoying.  "Ahh screw this, I'm coming out?" I answered back loudly.  I looked at my uniform one last time then walked out.  I went to the counter and stood still looking at Andy who was making a cup of tea.  "Whose that tea for?" I asked with a smile.  "You" he smirked.  I was about to tell him how uncool he was right now when the door opened.  "Welcome," I said shifting my gaze to the person who had just walked in.  I stood frozen looking at him, all of a sudden it was just me and him in this cafe, the man was a hottie, the pure definition of a Greek god, he stood at 6'4, his stance and body shape screamed rich, I looked at his facial structure, the dimples he had made me swallow hard, his smile was bright and breathtaking, the black suit he wore matched perfectly with his hair which was nicely styled, his dark blue eyes were piercing my own, I felt his eyes stripping me naked when they roamed all over my body.  He opened his mouth and whispered with his sexy voice the word I would never expect from a customer.  "Mate" "Mate" the words that came out of his mouth were shocking, I didn't know how to react, was I suppose to say them back? Perhaps throw myself at him? I knew all to well about werewolf and mates and having to hear those words from him and the attraction I felt, there was no denying we were meant to be in each others lives, I mean I wasn't that blind to reject such a fine, hot, sexy, Good looking spacemen.  "Blondy move! We have a customer, stop staring at him like that, if you wanna stare that badly, I will give it to you when we are alone in our room, when we knock off" Andy said loudly looking at the guy, judging from Andy's look he too must have heard the mate part, being a vampire had its on peaks like sharp hearing.  I was about to deny his stupid words towards me when I noticed my mates' eyes turn dark red.  "What are you going to do about it? Hum puppy boy? You don't just walk into my store and claim my woman like that in front of my face! The difference between my kind and yours is greater than you think, not only do I hate dogs like you, I hate that you wait for someone else's girl to claim as your own, while we on the other hand look for them for years, when we find them we cherish them for a very long time, we decide to either keep them human or turn them into one of us, when we decide to keep them human we don't turn them, we watch them die in our arms with us failing to save them, we suffer a heartache for a thousand years and wait for the heavens to pity us and make us an exact reincarnation of the one we loved, if we are lucky we end up meeting them, if not we end up living with the pain and memories of them, you don't know how long one can wait for their lover, a thousand years means nothing" he screamed showing his fangs I stood frozen, I have never seen Andy this upset in all my years, I was trying to make sense out of what he just said at the same time try and calm the both of them down.  The man took steps and stood facing me for some minutes then looked at Andy.  "I don't care what you say, dead guy, firstly let me tell you this, what I want I get, be it mate or not, I don't really care about your messed up past, what I heard was just pure nonsense and noise" he calmly answered.  Andy was about to move when I quickly held his hand, seeing how the man spoke, moved, his aura and his physique you could tell he had status in the park, if a fight was to take place here, Andy would suffer more damage than him, Andy looked at my hand then smiled happily, I wanted to pull my hand away when he tightened his grip.  The guy lowered his gaze and looked at my linked hand then at us.  "Oh well, I have important business to take care of, have a lovely day," he said lazily as he turned.  I wanted to call out to him and tell him it was all a bluff that Andy had said, I was angry at myself for letting Andy spit nonsense without me stopping him, I watched as the man walked out.  I angrily pulled my hand away and continued looking at the door, hoping he would come back and say he wanted to talk to me.  "Blondy, I'm sorry I overacted, I hate his kind a lot," he said lowly as I looked at him.  "That's it? Sorry? I overreacted? !!!" I yelled in nearly a scream.  "Why are you upset? It was just one customer, its not as if I chased out many customers" he answered trying to defend himself.  "Oh really? Then what are you going to do when other supernaturals like him come for a drink? Are you going to chase them all out? Andy our cafe is meant for every supernatural and human, we don't judge them based on their kind, if they are here for a drink that makes them our customer get it!!!!" I screamed on top of my lungs.  Andy looked at me quietly.  "Are you screaming at me because I chased out a potential customer or is it because he said he was your mate?" He asked sadly.  I took in a deep breath then released it, why was he giving me such a sad expression, I was no one to him, only his work partner.  "Look Andy I'm sorry I yelled, but you shouldn't judge a person just because his a werewolf" I answered lowly.  "I get it, you can't even answer me honestly anymore, I think we should close the cafe," he said.  I looked at him annoyed, is he serious right now?  "Why?" I asked.  "I won't work today, I'm going out to feed, unless you want to run this place alone," he said as I sighed low feeling defeated.  "Fine, we won't work today, just be careful on your hunt," I said as he laughed softly.  "For a second there I thought you cared truly cared, see you soon Blondy," he said as he went to our changing room.  This was messed up, for the first time I have witnessed different expressions on Andy's face, I somehow started thinking the playful side he usually showed me was just pretence.  I sat down and waited for him to come out, after a short while he did, he looked at me without saying anything then walked out, I slowly stood up and went to my changing room, I stripped my uniform and put on my usual clothes, today was not only a bad day it was also the worst day.
