Queen of The Damned

Chapter Three

     I spent the day with Matt and his friends, but I couldn't help feel eyes burning a hole in the side of my head. 

I look in the direction of the fiery gaze to see Matt staring at me. When he notices my glance he gives me a smile and a wink. I chuckle at his confidence but I can feel my checks grow red by the second. 

          There was five of us all together Matt the tall handsome man with the icy blue eyes, James who stood just inches shorter then Matt with chin length black hair, a girl named Casey who hasn't taken her arms off James and i can only assume is his girlfriend her hair is curly and platinum blonde, another girl Shea who looks pissed that I'm even alive. She has short brown hair with straight bangs and a little to much makeup on. She hasn't said a word to me since i entered the group 

"Hey Matt, are you even listening?" said Shea with an irritated look as she wraps her arm around Matts. He tries to shake her off but she is persistent, and I can't help but feel jealous. I wish it was my arm entwined in his. Whoa where did that thought come from, I just met the guy. Get a hold of yourself Blue.

"What is it Shea?" Matt said with irritation in his voice 

"Are you coming over tonight? I bought new underwear and I wanted your opinion on them" she said with a devilish smirk.

"Uhm, no thanks I'm gunna hang out with blue and show her around a little more before heading back home." Matt gave me a pleading look that screams 'just go with it for my safety' I can't help but giggle at him. 

"Yeah I'd like that" I said with rose red cheeks looking at the ground. I run my hand through my hair trying to hide my blushing face, but they all see right through it. 

'Hey Blue do you want to come with me to the bathroom" Casey said trying to hold back a giggle.

"Yeah sure" I've heard about this ritual in highschool movies, except I always thought I would be the girl getting her head dunked in the toilet by the popular girls. 

"We'll be right back" Casey said brimming with a smile 

"Make sure you bring her back Casey, I'm looking forward to our date later" Matt said flashing a million dollar smile at me. I can feel my entire face go total tomato so i walk a little faster.

"Uh Blue..bathroom is this way" Casey said to me with her thumb sticking out in the opposite direction I was going in. 

    I look back to see Matt still looking at me and Shea who is giving me a death stare, her arm still around Matts. 

            As we reach the bathroom Casey looks at herself in the mirror and pulls out her makeup bag from her purse. "Soooo you and Matt, huh?" she said while still fixing her makeup, 

"O-oh, uh n-no there's...I-I mean we...I just..." 

"Jeez calm down girl. I just asked because he hasn't taken his eyes off you since you showed up, that's all" she said with a giggle. "I think he likes you, but heads up, Shea has been pining after him for years now so he's not easy to get. That shouldn't be a problem for you though"

My cheeks getting red at the thought of Matt liking me until I walk over to the mirror to fix my hair and realize "why would he like me? I'm not pretty, or smart, or popular I don't even have a background. I'm to complicated for anyone to love." I get saddened by my own thoughts because I knew they were all true.

Casey slams her makeup bag down on the sink and turns to me with her hand on her hip, that sassy girl cliche I've seen in every movie "Girl look at you! You're gorgeous! Don't give me that 'I'm NoT PrETty' bull, You must be a witch because you put that boy under a spell"

"Y-you really think so?" I said with high hopes and a new found confidence Casey was able to dig out of me from a deep dark pit. 

"You totally got him wrapped around your delicate little finger, but hey if you don't believe me I guess you'll find out on your date with him tonight"

"D-d-date??" the word sends me into a pit of fear. What if he doesn't like me? Maybe he's just trying to be nice...'Gasp' WHAT IF HE'S A SERIAL KILLER?! I've seen the movies, poor expectant and innocent girl lore in by a handsome guy only to be strung up in a basement while he slowly eats away at her flesh! My face turns pale at the thought Casey looks over at me and says "I know that look. He's not some psychopath. Here, here's my number if Matt tries anything 'suspicious' text me and ill come and get you, K? Now come on they are going to start wondering what took us so long"

We walk out of the bathroom to find everyone waiting outside for us, but someone is missing. Matt.

(Matts P.O.V.)

"Hey James, cover for me ok? I'll be right back"

"where are you going? They are probably going to be back any second now" 

"Nah with Casey in there she's probably talking Blues ear off, just wait for me by the bathrooms I want to get Blue a gift for tonight."

"OhHhH a GiFt fOr YoUr MaTE" Shea said with venom on her tongue. 

"Shea don't hate just because Matt found his mate and it aint you" James scoffed at her with his arms folded in delight.

"What ever I just cant wait until you see your wolf is wrong about her and you end up breaking her heart it's going to be bitter sweet for me" She said with a harsh laugh.

    Shea is so wrong, Blue is my mate I just know it. Now I need to find the perfect gift for her I just have to find the right shop. 

I pass by many stores but nothing really screams 'You're mine' I pull out my phone and send a text to James

"Is it to early for an engagement ring?"

BING

"yeah dude. Way early"

"well what about a promise ring?"

A few seconds went by before i got a reply back.

BING

"DUDE THINK FIRST DATE! She doesn't know you and by her sent she isn't wolf! Just get her a necklace you dummy"

Growling to myself because I wanted to give her the world not just some cheap necklace any ordinary a**hole could buy. Feeling frustrated with the situation I look towards a jewelry store with hope. I walk inside to see the most beautiful diamond ring I've ever seen. 'No, think first date Matt' James words ringing in my ear. I walk up to a store clerk and ask "I'd like to see the finest first date necklace you have"

"of course alpha. This is the best in stock". she said showing me a heart shaped pendent with a ruby the size of a dime in the center. "Finally found her did we?" she asked

"Yes, there's no mistaking it, shes mine" I stated proudly 

"I'm surprised. Most people give their mates a ring going a different route?" she asked with a confused look on her face.

"Uhm...No not exactly" i had to stop and think of my words before i told anyone she isn't wolf i needed to run it by my parents. The thought of telling my father about Blue sent shivers down my spine I can hear his words booming in my head "No son of mine will date anyone other then his destined mate I want grandpuppies!" I've never heard of anyone having a human mate. It had my head spinning. 

"Would you like me to wrap this up for you? I have the perfect box and bow." she asked snapping me back to reality. 

"Yes please" I pulled out a black card. Being alpha comes with perks like having an easy job and getting paid the most. Plus mortgage is cheap due to everyone being in the same pack including the governor of the state which just so happens to be my Father. 

I put the box in my pocket and made my way back to the group. I spotted everyone put a certain someone stuck out the most. Blue in all of her beautiful glory, there's was something off though. She looked sad, staring down at the floor. I wanted more then anything to put a smile on her face. So I walked over and put my arms around her shoulders sending me into eternal bliss from her strawberry sent. 

"Whatcha all talking about?" I asked still holding on to Blue. I've never realized it but she is so short compared to me.

"Me and James are going to head out for a movie" Casey said with a smile on her face more directed towards Blue then anyone. It makes me wonder what they were talking about in the bathroom.

Shea has been dirty looking Blue all day and its starting to piss me off. "Come on Blue let me show you around" I said looking back at everyone as we walk away to wave goodbye. Blue turns to wave to the group as well but her goodbye was mostly for Casey. It brought me pride to know that my younger sister is getting along with my mate so well.

"So Matt where are you talking me?"
