Mate?
822 Words
She woke up at her usual 6am, yawning. She was tireder than usual, but she did spend hours of the night running around.
The girl got up and dressed herself in ‘uniform’ and headed to the door, hand on the handle, when she stopped.
She realised there was a scent. A scent she could smell that was pleasant and comforting, for some reason. It seemed to soothe Vera and keep her content.
It got stronger once she walked out to the hallway and begun heading to the kitchen.
She just ignored it and tried to move on with her job. It was overwhelming, but she managed.
It was just Evelynn in the kitchen when she heard someone making their way down the stairs and to the room. She pushed the scent to the back of her mind, getting ready to serve the Alpha and Luna their breakfasts.
But it wasn’t either of them.
It was Lucian. Awake, before 7am on a weekend.
All of a sudden, the overwhelming feeling of the pleasing scent came back and drowned her in it.
It-
It was coming from Lucian. But why…?
The older man huffed and narrowed his eyes at her, trying to subtly sniff the air.
“This- This is insane,” He growled, threading his hand through his hair.
Evelynn just tilted her head at him with a frown, “I’m.. not quite sure I follow, s-sir..”
Lucian just groaned and glared at her again, but with only one eye this time.
“Don’t you get it, stupid servant? This damn scent means we’re True Mates!” He growled and rubbed his forehead.
Her eyes widened and mouth parted. Them? True Mates: Lucian and Evelynn? Impossible.
But maybe not.
She just stood there, stilled in shock. She was simply a servant for their family. How could she be the Alpha-heir’s mate?
When she came back to reality, Lucian was still there, but closer. Really close.
Evelynn flinched and looked up at him, eyes wide, hands gripping the counter behind her.
“C’mon, Evelynn. No need to be scared. You’re mine now,” He murmured, cupping her cheeks and pulling her into a kiss.
She gasped and moaned softly, Lucian taking the opportunity to slip his tongue between her lips. She didn’t think he actually knew her name, but he did.
It was her first kiss. It was everything she had dreamed of and more. She let herself get lost in the feeling, leaning against him and wrapping her arms around his neck.
That scent, telling her that her mate is right there, was so overwhelming, so she stopped fighting it and let it guide her to do what her wolf wanted.
A few minutes passed before Lucian let her go, hands dropping down between them, itching to rest on her waist.
Evelynn panted, face flushed a cherry red. She stuttered, “S-Sir I-“
Lucian laid a finger on her lip to shut her up, letting his fingers play with a strand of her just dangling over the front of her face, “Shhh.. No more calling me that, Evelynn. You’re my True Mate,” He whispered.
She frowned, “But L-Lucian… We can’t…”
His eyes furrowed and he growled slightly. “Of course we can. You’re mine,” He spoke, voice strained to not snap.
Evelynn lowered her head slightly, “I’m a servant, Lucian.. You’re the heir to the Alpha title.. And what about Ava?”
The man scoffed, “That doesn’t matter, baby. You. Are mine. I’ve been waiting for my True Mate. Now you’re here, I can have you.”
He leaned in and kissed her again, hands now resting and gripping on her waist.
She moaned into the kiss again, melting at the feeling, unable to fight it. But it ends sooner than before.
“See, baby? You feel it too.. It’s so good to be with you..” He murmurs, stroking her cheek, “I need you, baby..”
Evelynn whined softly, fingers digging into his skin, “L-Lucian.. Why..? I thought you hated me..” She muttered, panting, voice laced with sadness.
Lucian’s wolf, Leo, growled internally at him, howling in despair: “You were stupid! She is scared of us, you fool. Our mate may never trust us or accept us!”
He sighed, cupping her cheek and stroking the soft skin as he whispered gently, “Oh, baby.. I know. I’m sorry, my mate. But you don’t have to worry anymore, I will protect you. You are mine and I will make sure no-one hurts you again. You are to become my Luna.”
Evelynn stared into his eyes, panting slightly; flushed, “O-Okay..” She whispers softly, watching as his face shifts in excitement.
He smiles and leans down to rub his nose to hers, “Good girl, I knew you would agree,” He mutters and kisses her again.
