MARK MY MATE

Never judge a book by its cover

Malik's POV

Once I looked at her mark, I felt my teeth prolonging and sharpening. I rushed out before she could see me, I wondered what could happen if she saw me in such a state, she could probably throw me out, or faint at once. I didn't understand why the mark, was making me react this way. I started wondering how it could be if I had not come to the future, I'd probably be at war with my brother's men, it was exhausting but it was better than having a mate.

I started regretting everything, I wish I never moved to the future, or tried to save this girl. But still it was because of me that she was in that state, so I had to help her.

Many ideas came to my mind but I couldn't find the right one to use.

"Is everything okay?" I had Tracy ask.

I felt like telling her everything, how I am not human, how I travelled to the future, how I marked her. What was i thinking, she could never accept me as her mate, she would probably scold me even when I tell her I only did it to save her. "Nothing" I replied after a while. She could never understand my dilemma even after a long explanation.

"Really, nothing?"

"Yes, nothing"

"Okay, Uhm, I'm done with your room"

"Okay, thanks"

"I'll be in my room, if you need me"

"Okay, thank you so much"

"It's not much, anyway goodnight"

I watched her going to her room, "Will you ever accept me as your mate" I said to myself then moved to my room.

I looked up at the roof, I wished Rafshan was here with me, only he could understand me, he could perhaps offer me some advice"

In the next second, I felt his presence, "Raf" I called out, then he appeared in front of me.

"No one has noticed your absence so far, I can't believe no one misses you"

"Well, I expected that"

"How did you reach here"

"Some girl took me in"

"What, I didn't know you were a fast catch in girls"

"Look, don't add to my problems"

"Since when was I a problem to you, as a matter of fact, you are the problem to me"

"Okay, quit the blame game, I need your help"

"I told you, you are the problem, okay what now?"

"I'm in a dilemma, this girl who took me in, is my mate"

"How did you know it is actually her"

"I marked her"

"What, how?!"

"I was trying to save her, she was dying"

"That's the problem you are too good"

"This ain't about being good, it was my fault she was dying"

"It seems there is a lot to tell"

"I was attacked by robbers, and she saw it, she felt I needed help, unfortunately she got hurt"

"So you bit her, to give her your super blood, to heal her"

"I wasn't thinking"

"True, there are more ways to give her your blood, you could have made her drink"

"That's disgusting"

"And so is having her ad your mate"

"So, what should we do?"

"Two options, kill her or try and love her"

"I can't kill her, nor can I love her, I don't even, she may be in a relationship already"

"If you can't kill her, I will help you"

"No, can't I just go back to the past"

"You don't get it, you are a demon, you can live for thousands of years, and she is in the future, you'll have to meet her again no matter what, and there are higher chances that she can also live for many years due to that mark"

"That's impossible"

"And that mark, always finds way to bring you together"

"But I can't kill her she has no fault in this"

"Then love her, and accept her as your mate"

"I need to think about it first"

"Do not think for long, because next time I come here I'll want your answer, and if you haven't found one I'll kill her and you will do nothing about it"

he said and then disappeared in thin air. I knew he could kill her, he never joked with such words I knew I couldn't let him kill her but that meant I had to accept her as my mate. I closed my eyes to sleep.

**********************

The next morning, Malik woke up before Tracy, he started cleaning the house, he wasn't good at it since the servants did all his work but he tried as hard as he could. He went to the kitchen to prepare something but everything he saw was new to him so he just stared at everything blankly.

"Good morning" Tracy called from behind. Malik turned "Good morning"

"Wow you did an excellent with the job cleaning, thank you"

"You're welcome"

"Wait were you going to cook? No you can't be doing all the work, go to the sitting room and I will bring you breakfast"

Malik went to the sitting room without hesitation, he probably couldn't be able to cook anything. After a while, Tracy came in with two cups of coffee and two plates of toasted bread.

"It smells good" Malik said with a smile.

"Never judge a book by its cover" they both laughed.

They both ate and as expected Malik ate a little, "You done already" Tracy asked surprised.

"Yeah, and it was really delicious"

"Can I the rest of the bread then" she asked shyly.

Malik laughed and extended his plate to her.

*******************

Later that evening after they had finished with their supper, Malik to his bedroom to rest he had already forgot about the mark and the girl being his mate, he lay down to sleep. But before he could fall asleep he felt someone standing next to his bed, he turned, it was Rafshan.

"I think you have now decided, you love her or I kill her"
