Mate Bond

Annebelle

"We do need to talk about something else though." He said "What more could there possibly be? This has been a lot in a short amount of time." "When I found you, you were dying and the only way to save you was to mark you." He said, studying my face. "What do you mean mark me?" He reached over, touching a spot between my neck and shoulders and neck and I bite back a moan, not again what the h**l. Bringing my hand up to the spot, I felt four indents in my neck like bite marks. "You bit me!" "It was the only way to save you and now part of my essence is in you, so you'll heal faster and I'll be able to feel your emotions. If you were a wolf you would mark me and feel the same." "You bit me and now you can feel my emotions? No, this is too much I need to go." I scrambled to the edge of the bed, forgetting my ankle and began falling. I braced myself for the impact but that never happened, instead I was cocooned in a tingly embrace. Opening my eyes, I was once again inches from his face, looking at his light green eyes. Gosh, why is this man so good looking? It's actually annoying. My big mouth couldn't help it. "Why are you so good looking?" A large smile appeared on his lips before he burst out laughing. "What?" I was scooped up and set on his lap, he couldn't seem to keep his hands off of me and there's some part that enjoys it and another part that is confused like no tomorrow. "There is one more thing." "Of course there is." "After making a mate they usually "Mate" or consummate the relationship if they don't and wait the female will go into heat which forces it. Heat, if pushed off for too long, can kill someone, almost akin to boiling them alive." "Wooooh wait here hulk man, I didn't agree to s*x anything or, consummating as you say. Now you say if I don't I'll boil alive." "Yes." "Um no I don't know you and I don't know where that has been!" He chuckles "You calling me dirty?" "Well again I don't know you other than the rumors you say are not true and that we are apparently mates." "Well lets get to know each other what do you want to know?" "How old are you?" "twenty eight." "Holy cow old fart!" "Excuse me old fart I'm in my prime." "Ok whatever you say grandpa." I'm thrown on the bed and he starts tickling me "take it back!" "Never!" I say trying to push his whale self off of me. "Dang what do you weigh like a ton?" I squeeze out in between laughs. "Wow no holding back first I'm old now I'm fat!" "If the shoe fits." "Jerk, fine unless you want me to call you tiny human for the rest of your life what's your name?" "Annebelle and I'm eighteen hence the old fart comment and I was at that camp for little over five years with my sister but she was killed during the attack." I looked away for a second to compose myself I'm not breaking down in front of him he may apparently be my mate but in the grand scheme but at this moment he is a stranger. I don't understand the complexity of the mate bond or what's going to come next, but it's strange to feel safe with someone you don't know and scared at the same time. I have a headache.
