My Vampire Mate

I was walking down the dark, gloomy, hallway in the East Wing, when I heard commotion outside. Being a Vampire, my hearing is fantastic! I ran to the big window at the far end of the hall. I saw my father with four of his men. The men were dragging an incredibly large, very attractive man, towards the dungeons. He had short black, spiky hair, and tattoos everywhere. We made eye contact and I couldn’t look away! He had the most beautiful grey eyes I have ever seen. They had a faint green circle in the center, and seem to be sparking gold around the outer rim. It’s him! I ran downstairs and went straight to my fathers office. I knocked on the door, my fathers deep voice boomed. “Enter.” I opened the door and took a seat in front of him. “What is it my sweet Lila?” He asked me. I thought it best to get straight to the point. “Who was that man the warriors just took to the dungeons?” I asked, then bowed my head. “Why are you asking? It does not concern you.” He said, as he lifted my chin to look me in the eye. “He looks familiar.” Is all I could say. My father stood and closed the door. He turned and looked me straight in the eye, he does this when he’s controlling someone. “You will stay away from the dungeons Lila, do I make myself clear?” I nodded my head and stood up. “I did not mean to overstep father, I understand.” As I walked out the door, I thought to myself, this is going to be dangerous. I have watched everyone I love, find their mates, and fall in love. This man is my mate, even if he is a werewolf. He is mine! I rushed to my brothers office. “Dorian, are you in there?” I yelled. I heard some moaning and a loud slap. “Um, I’ll come back.” I ran back to the gloomy hallway. Why is Alpha Saba here? How do I find out without pissing my father off?! I’ve got it! I’ll go to Heath, he’ll help me. I went back downstairs, around to the back of the house. I slipped out the side door and walked to the door in the woods that leads to the dungeons. I found Heath near the edge of the forest, alone, thankfully. “Hey Heath, long night? What’s going on?” I asked. He shook his head and backed away a little. “I can’t tell you anything Lila, your father will kill me!” We’ll that tells me a lot. “He’d kill you for telling me why you have Alpha Saba in the dungeon?” I questioned. . “Please Lila, I can’t.” Heath begged. “All I will say or can say, is that it is Alpha Saba. He’s here for questioning and I don’t know anything else.” He spewed. “Thank you for the information Heath.” I said and walked back to my brothers office. I tapped on the door, “ are you finished? I need to talk to you.” “Yeah, come in Lila.” Dorian said. “Sorry about earlier.” I blushed and shrugged it off. “It’s fine, not the first time and I’m positive, not the last.” We both laughed. “I need you to do me a favor. I need you to find out why Father has Alpha Saba in the dungeon. Please, I feel he has a very significant role here, I need to know.” It was my turn to beg. “Lila, I’m not sure that’s such a great idea. If Father found out, he would not be happy.” My brother warned. “I just need to know why Dorian. I think he is my mate. Father can not hurt him if he is!” I begged some more. “Alright Lila, I will find out why he’s here. What the f**k are you going to do if he is indeed your mate? He’s a werewolf!” My brother asked. “If he is my mate, we will have to figure it out. I don’t know yet.” I cried. My brother hugged me and assured me that everything would work out. I left his office and went to my room. About an hour later, there was a knock at my door. I opened it to reveal a very tired looking Dorian. “What is wrong? Are you ok?” I asked. “Sit Lila, we need to talk.” He very sadly said. Shit! “Okay.” I sat on the middle cushion of my couch and grabbed a pillow to scream into. “It is Sabastian Saba, he is a very powerful Alpha. He believes he is your mate as well.” My brother said, shaking his head. “Oh f**k! Does Father know this?” I cried. “Yes” Dorian said. “Oh no! What did he say?” I asked. Dorian put his arm around my shoulder and said, “He forbid it, of course. He is not in his right mind at the moment, give him time. Alpha Sabastian is your mate, there is nothing father, or anyone can do to prevent you from being with him.” “I hope you’re right Dorian. I want nothing more than to have what you and Sabina have. That love and connection. Alpha Sabastian can not hurt me. He’s my mate, he wouldn’t hurt me! I think a change is needed. An alliance with the Wolves could be in order!” I tried to sound hopeful. My brother looked at me and smiled. “I think you may be right sis.”
