The Vampire’s Forbidden Mate.

Chapter 1

Elara’s POV

Having siblings can be so annoying at times. I don't even need an alarm clock to be up early. I'm wide awake just by the sound of my baby sister crying or my brother singing.

I will be done with college soon, and I’m glad my foster parents are not uncomfortable with me still living with them occasionally because they paid for my dorm on campus. I work and earn online already, so I’ve been saving to get an apartment.

I have lectures by noon, and I do not feel like going anywhere, but I don't have a choice at this point.

“Dave can you please shut up!!!” I shouted at the top of my lungs, because his noise is now irritating to my ears. “Hey Elara be nice!” my mum shouted back.

I just rolled my eyes even though she couldn't see my expression. It’s still pretty early but now that I’m awake I just had to have my bath and brush my teeth.

When I was done and I put some clothes on, I went down to greet my dad since I didn't see him in his room, still he was still not anywhere in the house. “Mom where's dad?!”

“He left this morning but he won't be back today. He went on a business trip” she said while coming to meet me downstairs following me into the kitchen. “Elara how is the house hunting going?” she asked while making breakfast.

“You know it won't be wise to use up all my savings to get a house and I’d be left stranded. I just need a little bit more time” and she just responded by wishing me good luck.

Dave came down and just grabbed a slice of bread then he left for school.

My mom and I with my baby sister Danielle had our breakfast in the kitchen. I cleared the place up and at this point, I was contemplating whether I should sleep or not because I feel very sleepy and lazy right now. But I pushed that lazy thought and went up to work anyway.

It was almost time for me to leave for school so I quickly packed my bag and left.

I didn't feel like driving today so I used the bus.

On the bus to school, I was thinking of my life and how I realized I don't have any close friends at school. I had one but she transferred to another school because they relocated. We both stopped being in touch with one another and I guess that's fine because we are both trying to figure out our lives at this point.

On getting to school unfortunately my paths crossed with Aroura Camella, the popular supermodel, she is very beautiful but her personality is also very terrible. Sometimes I wonder why other girls she has been mean to still try to appease her.

This has never happened because I always try to keep my distance but I bumped into her unknowingly. I was about to apologize but she just had to ruin it by saying awful things.

“If it isn't the poor orphan. I thought your kind are smart and sensible but I guess you just felt like being different and got being blind instead.” I was about to speak back but she just cut me off. “Save it, there is no need for you to say anything to me” then she purposely bumped into me and walked off with her friends.

I felt really terrible at this point I was recalling every problem in my life and I was on the verge of breaking down but gladly I didn't, not here not now.

At least I did not arrive late today so I sat in my usual spot waiting for the class to begin. After settling in I see some people hurrying into the class, then the professor walks in afterwards.

“Class before we dive into today's topic. We all know this institution does not accept exchange students at this level but they made an exception for Lucien”.

Lucien walks in and my Ohh my, he looks hot. “Lucien would you like to give the class a brief introduction” our professor asked politely.

“No ma’am I’ll pass,” he said with a very bright smile plastered on his face. I could hear some girls gushing over him and I got so upset. Why do I feel like I know him and I know for a fact I have no idea who he is. At this point, I didn't feel any better than the other girls making nasty remarks about them wanting him because I wanted him too. Our eyes crossed and his stare felt like a burning desire in my soul. “Lucien you can sit in any of the vacant seats available” He just nodded in response to what the professor had told him with his gaze still on me, then he found his way to an empty seat before the lecture began.

Instead of paying attention I am here thinking of why his eyes were fixed on me and what sort of emotions I am feeling by just being in the same room with him. This can't be love at first sight or is this lust? I need to stop this and start listening.

Lucien’s POV

I love adventures and trying out new things so I sirened myself into a human school. I would love to attend the school just for the fun of it. It’s either this or training myself out under the command of my father and I gladly choose the school. No one knows about me being here aside from my friend Troy.

After I had Sirened my way in to be registered and accepted into the school. The following day I came back to the human world for my classes.

I was finding difficulty locating my class but I got the hang of the school map eventually.

The moment I stepped into the class, something inside me shifted. I could feel it. The air thickened, charged like a storm about to break. It wasn't sight, it wasn't sound but a significant presence that made my chest tighten. My eyes scanned through the class looking for Her, until my gaze landed on a pretty brunette girl, she stared right back into my soul with her crystal blue eyes. In that moment without doubt or hesitation, I just knew she was mine. She is my mate.

Our eyes were locked in until I sat on the vacant seat. I pondered on what my mate could be doing in the human world and why attending school here. Or is she human? I can't have a human mate, it is forbidden and that has never happened in centuries, so why would it happen now? Throughout I pondered on if I should meet up with her after class or not, but decided to go back to the other side (the supernatural world) before my father gets to know about my absence.
