My Mate Wants Me?

*Kiara's P.O.V.* Some people get to only know a few people's experiences you are goin to be getting my experiences and let's see if you can learn from them like I did. It all starts when I am a very young child and I have just turned 6. My dad left my mom, my sister, and myself. Mother would beat me up if I so much as breathed the wrong way in front of her. I would be taken to my bedroom and then beaten I wouldn't be able to go to school sometimes the next day I was beaten so bad. It's now a few years later I am now 10 years old now, me and my sister are at the public pool and she is trying to drown me in the deep end of the pool. She made it seem like we were playing around in the deep end, then when adults weren't looking she would shove me under the water and then she would force me to stay under the water. I think she would have continued if I didn't hit her in the stomach and ran away as fast as I could. I got yelled at while I was running but wasn't paying attention to the person yelling I was just trying to get away from my sister. Honestly, if she would have succeeded in ending my life I don't think anyone would have even mourn my death. I made my way all the way to the changing room of the pool for the women I found a corner of the room and I thought that I lost her and before I could release a sigh of relief she found me and started to kick me. She started soft then that built to a final kick before some ladies entered the changing room. I wont lie that last kick made me grunt in pain and I gripped my face because that is where she landed her last kick, causing a bloody nose I felt my vision start to blur. I heard the women come closer as soon as they turned a corner they found me on the floor and my sister above me and then she gasped and knelt down next to me looking like she was helping me and then she spoke. "Play along or you'll get a beating once we get home." She whispered in my ear I nodded she wrapped her arm around my6 waist and with her other she yanked me to my feet. She made it look like I was leaning on her but I knew that if I were to actually do that I would get beaten later anyway so I try to put most of my weight on myself. We then walked out of the community pool and saw our mother's car she all of a sudden let me go I almost fell down. Once I was let go she went straight to the passenger side of the front of the car and got into the car I slowly got into the backseat. I was happy to be as far away from those people as soon as possible. The only person that I could turn to was my best friend Rose. Anyway as soon as we were seat belted in the car my mom holds out her hand for the extra money my sister, Susanne, looked at her with a sad expression before sending me a smirk. "I put it with out stuff but then while I was swimming in the pool Kiara took the money from the backpack and spent it all on snacks." Mom looked into the rear view mirror and shot me a glare, a glare that I knew all too well. I am going to be getting a beating as soon as we got home, well I call it home but it seems more like a prison at least for me. I can't wait to turn 18 and leave that place and the people who were supposed to take care of me and love me for who I am. We pull into the driveway  I hop out and practically jog to my room and shut the door. I would say that my this is where my dad comes in and save me but, since my dad left me I haven't seen him and I would love to at least have one person that could protect me from this. I did receive a letter from my father once that said that he would eventually come back and get me from these demons but he never showed up ever again. I am pulled back to reality as my door opens up, it's my mother. She walks in fuming "Do you think that you can waste my money like that you selfish ungrateful little girl." I tried to plead my case, but she refused to listen to me at all I also tried to tell her that Susanne was lying but she would hear none of it. Mother backed me into a corner and yelled again "You are just like your father you both don't deserve to live you're both useless you change your ways or life for you in this house will only get worse." my sister had to chime in "I think that she is old enough to have a few chores let's see if she can handle mine. Maybe it will teach her something mother." Mom stood there and thought for a second my sister sat there and held up three of her fingers and as soon as she didn't have any fingers up she pointed to mother as if on cue mother opened her mouth "You're right, it might teach her something you don't have to do your chores this week let's see if you can keep up." she for some reason thought that in a way it was completely necessary to slap me twice before she left. Before she exited the room she sharply turned around to face me "That was because you spent my hard earned money." after that was said she left, my sister stood there over my pain ridden body and just laughed at me before leaving the room herself. I could see the blackness and slowly the darkness took me. It's now 7 years later, yes I am now 17 years old now and I am getting ready for school. I put on a baggie hoodie over a practically ready to fall apart t-shirt. I then slipped on some jeans that are faded everywhere and holes by the hems on the bottom of the pants a few throughout then jeans you could tell that I have worn these very often. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that we have moved at least 3 times since I was ten just because my mom didn't want anyone to know that she was beating her child. Anyway back to my last year of high school and my sister will be 19 years old this summer and I think she is a mean girl, but to most people she would be considered that popular girl and they would do anything to get her attention, well everyone but me I would just like to avoid her for one day. The girls that she hangs with look like they would easily do stuff that would be worse then what she would do to me. That is beside the point, something happened to me in between now and my 16th birthday I am unable to speak thinks to my sister most likely. I don't know what triggered it but my sister and mother thinks that this is better. I think that it's because no matter what I said there was never someone that wanted to help me and by the time they would want to help I would be told that we were moving. I still want people to notice me but I don't know how'd they notice since I wear nothing but baggie cloths. They always have lone sleeves and nothing but jeans, so no one would ever see the bruises. I mean I also haven't spoken to anyone in years as well. My friends that I did have abandoned me after the first move. Anyway on with the story I am walking through the doors of the school for the first day of my last year of school. I am used to being the new girl in school but I have a feeling that this school is very different than the others I have been to. Unfortunately my older sister was help back a year so she is in my school repeating her senior year for the third time. Once I heard that she was being held back again I snickered to myself but it seems that I was not careful enough they noticed my smirk on my face. That earned me a beating with the leather belt later. Anyway the reason I tell you this is because she is walking toward me in the hallway and yes she is already in with the cool crowd and I am guessing by the death glares I am getting means that my wonderful sister has already spread false rumors about me just so I will be the target right away. Susanne walked up to me and she shoved me against the lockers and yanked on my hair I didn't make a noise and she gets angry at me and tries harder to get me to make a squeak but she hasn't been able to so far but let's see if she can today. She pulls out something from her purse I look down and get a better look at it and see that it was a knife. I flinch a little but then quickly realize I have no where I can run to I am trapped she placed the cold blade on my skin and began to cut the blade barely broke the skin. I began to bleed but I don't make a single noise which I think it made all the girls upset. I think that they were told that I was someone easy to bully and I cry easily. I think one of them got so mad that she growled almost like a wolf, but once I notice that no one is acknowledge the noise I chalked it up to me going crazy. They dug the blade a little further into my skin I start to bleed pretty good but not enough to let me die. I then notice that other children were staring. I thought to myself and before I knew it my body starts moving. I just rolled my eyes to signify that they didn't do to me what I have already done to myself I nudged one of the girls a little bit I grabbed the blade from my sister's hand. I rolled up my sleeve showing off some more of my cuts the other children gasped. But I don't pay them any mind while I drag the blade even harder then they did across my forearm. I didn't even wince after that I toss the blade to the floor and smirked as I turned around to leave, but a strong had stops me and turns me back around I see the most handsome male I have ever laid my eyes on. He had the4se beautiful hazel eye color that I've never seen before. He has this shoulder length hair that is almost a midnight black. It looks so soft my fingers could get lost in there. My eyes fall down to his soft ,rosy lips. One of the girls approached him swiped his hand away from my shoulder and made me snap back to reality. "Hunter, where have you been I missed you baby." she then proceeded to kissed him hard on the lips. Hunter is his name I'll have to stay away if I want a semi quiet life here. I rolled my eyes and as I started to walk away I tolled back down my sleeve to cover the arm I can always take care of it later. I manage to make it all the way to the office, as soon as I walk through the door I hand my note to the person that was behind the desk. She read the note and then she looked at me with pity I let it go because it happened that every school that I have been to. She hands me my schedule and sent me on my way to my first class, you know what I get to my the classroom after the bell rang. I walked through the door and the teacher spoke "And what is your excuse for being late?" I didn't answer instead I reached for my notebook and pen to write down an explanation. "I am sorry I am new and I lost my way, and no I am unable to talk." the teacher looked from my note to me a couple of times then the flint in her eyes were gone she turned me toward the class and answered "This is the new student Kiara Johnston she was in a horrible accident that has made her go mute please don't treat her any different than any other student." she then pointed at a seat in the back of the classroom. That at least was a sigh of relief until I noticed a pair of worried hazel eyes. Once I looked at those eyes I wanted to run away but, those eyes, they wouldn't let me go. I snapped back to reality when the teacher tapped me on the shoulder I then started to walk to my seat. I sat down at my desk and got out a different notebook to look like I was taking notes but in reality I wasn't. I wasn't even paying attention to the teacher as they spoke. I am a straight A student, I was so lost in my thought that I didn't even notice someone was tapping on my shoulder to get my attention. I turned around to see Hunter and his beautiful hazel eyes capturing me "Are you okay?" I looked at him like he grew a second head. I turned away from him abruptly earning me a worried glance from him. When I saw his face I felt bad but once I turned back to him I tapped on my notebook. I saw a small light flicker in his eyes before I started to write. "I'm sorry I can't speak I needed something to write on. Ass for this morning, if that is what you are asking about, I am used to it the on that pulled the blade..." I froze in my spot Hunter was staring at me like he knew that I didn't want to complete the sentence. He gently grabbed my wrist I looked up to him with tears threatening to fall from my eyes but I blinked them away as fast as they appeared. We shared some glances before turning back to the teacher. After that school went on like normal Hunter was in one of my other classes but we didn't talk in fact we didn't even sit next to on another I was a little bit upset and a little bit relieved at the fact. After a few more classes I was done for the day I only have half a day worth of classes I convinced the rest of my teachers to let me just get the homework and I would just come in early for the tests, if my grades started to slip I have to start showing up to the classes, and that will never happen. Hunter's P.O.V I woke up more excided than normal today, the thing that is exiting is the fact that I get to find my mate today. My wolf, Xander howls in delight in my head "Cool down man you know that it may take us a while to find her." I told him. "I don't care as long as we find her. Plus, I bet we find her sometime today." He stated then started to hop around in my mind making me giggle at him. I walk down stairs and out the front door of my house, which is the pack house. Once I reach the school I practically jog into the school I strode down the hallway. I freeze in my tracks once this amazing sent hits my nose. It smelled of vanilla and chocolate. I look down the hall where the smell is coming from I follow it for a few turns and what I noticed was a group of girls surrounding another girl once I got a better look she was wearing baggie cloths I then noticed that she had something in her hand I squinted and saw that it was a blade I froze my eyes are practically bulging out of my skull her beautiful brown hair flipped over her shoulder as she rolled up her sleeve I saw a lot of marks it sent a shiver down my spine. I stood there frozen in fear my wolf was screaming at me to run over there and stop her, but I just couldn't. My eyes went wide when I saw that she was now trying to, what am I saying she was cutting herself. Plus, she wasn't flinching. It was like she was used to the pain a blade brought her. That is when I decided to start moving my hand touched her shoulder and she turned around shocked I froze again she was human? I was confused as hell. Xander, on the other hand was upset, in shock and in love all at the same time. I don't know everything, but on thing I do know is that am put here in this moment to protect my mate but in all honesty as soon as I saw her pretty face I didn't know what to do so I stood there frozen. That was until one of the girls that was bulling my mate came up to me and kissed me that brought me out of my trance quickly. As soon as I started looking around for my mate I find that she has left that spot and of course she wouldn't stay put she didn't know that we are mates in the first place since she was a human I will have to play it slow and win her affection the hard way at least till she can trust me enough for me to tell her my secret. I threw the girl that was kissing me off and walked away to my first class. Little to my knowledge she was in my first period as well. As soon as she opened the door to the hallway I smelt her and I automatically relaxed, so did Xander. I wish I could smell this all the time but that will only come with time. She walked in and then she handed the teacher a note after being aske snobbishly why she was late it took all of my strength to not run to the front of the room and growl at the teacher, I know that sounds weird but that would be normal for us wolves and knowing that she would show respect once she learns that she is the future Luna of the pack. You know what in fact I mind linked the teacher to let her know to have the new girl sit near me so I could keep an eyes on her in case she needs any help. The teacher told me okay through the mind link while her attitude changed completely toward Kiara. I went to heaven and back once I learned her name I silently thanked that teacher for introducing her but my mate didn't look happy with all the attention that she was getting from everyone. I can fix that but as an alpha's mate she has to get used to the attention. I know as my mate I know I have the purpose to protect my mate from anything that is uncomfortable and I would like to but as the alpha's mate she has to be able to deal with people and the way they may sometimes I very much so didn't like that the males of the room stared at her with lust. Obviously, she is beautiful but I can't do anything that will draw any extra attention otherwise she might want to run, hell she looks like she wants to run right now. I can't do anything to help her at all I feel so useless I wish I could but that would defeat the purpose of her seating near me. I don't want to scare her away for caring too soon but there is nothing more I can do I have to wait to earn her trust. As soon as she made eye contact with me I could tell she wanted me but at the same time she didn't want anything to do with me because of earlier I think Tiffany kissing me made her upset but I can't tell usually as mates we have this automatic connection that would help us understand each other but we get to start in the dark. Man, I don't like this but this is the only way I know to move forward in a relationship. I need to get my head in the game she just sat down and I need to know a little bit about her and to get her to kind of open up to me and I don't know how to do that I am literally flying blind into the eye of the storm. Out of the corner of my eye I she that she takes the seat in front of me, damn I was hopping that she would sit next to me but I can make this work too. I tap on her shoulder but she doesn't answer right away I think she was in her own thought, she finally turned around and I was wrong she is much prettier then anything I have ever seen, I can't even put into words and that is sad I am usually very good with my words. I then asked her if she was okay, she turned back around and I didn't know what I did but what if she wrote me off already just because of Tiffany this morning, I'll have to talk to Tiffany later not to do that ever again otherwise I don't know what I will do. I am drawn back to my mate in front of my when she tapped my desk to get my attention I feel like I had made a face that worried her because then I think she was mirroring my face. I looked at her notebook and read it to myself and once I got toward the end she started writing again and I didn't know what to say once she got to a part that it looked like she didn't want to write. I stopped her by putting a and on her wrist and she snapped up and met my eyes and like she knew what I wanted to say she relaxed a little bit. We exchanged small smiles and then she turned around, as soon as she did I missed her face already. I was very sad to learn that we only had one other class together and to let her attempt to meet new people on her own I asked the teacher to sit her on the other side of the room he was happy to do so. I didn't see her try to talk to another girl but other boys were trying to help and I know that, but my wolf wanted to be set free so he could rip their faces off. Other than that I didn't see her the rest of the day I needed to know why so I went to the direct source of information, yeah I went to find her sister. I found her sister after school was done and I went up to her and I had a few questions that she needed to answer so I put on my charm and walked up to her. How did I know that it was her I just went up to the only girl I didn't know in the school. "Hey, girl, what is your name?" "My name is Susanne." I don't know what information I could get from her but I was determined to find out.
