Marked By My Mate

I was awakened by the rays of sunlight shining through the glass double doors leading to the balcony. I wanted to see the early morning view of the forest and valley below but was stopped by a pair of powerful, well-toned, tan arms. I tried squirming free but was met with failure as they only drew me in closer I turned to get a look at the beauty holding me captive. As I scanned his face, I embedded every fine-lined detail of his features into my brain; from his thick brows to his pug-like nose and full broad plump lips. I turned again, and again, he squeezed me.

“Go back to sleep little one.” he muttered. I shook my body and gently raised his arm as I felt a slight release, replacing it with my pillow and a note saying that I was outside enjoying the dew. As I reached the balcony, I had been so mesmerized by the view that I had not heard Atto get up. It wasn’t until he had placed his hands around my waist and kissed me that I noticed him.

“Enjoying the view little one?” he asked. I nodded. I turned around and pecked his lips, he picked me up and walked back into the bedroom. He placed me on the bed and took out a notepad and pen for me, he sighed, rubbing the back of his neck.

“I want to talk to you about something.” he sighed. I hesitated, then nodded, slowly. He then proceeded to open and close his mouth like a guppy. “Well, I already apologized for rejecting you and all. But I never told you why I had done that.” he said, and I immediately understood “You see, I did it because...” I put my hand up in front of his face and scribbled unto the notepad

‘I know why.’ He looked at me confused.

“How do you know?” he asked, to which I scribbled, ‘I read and listened to your spirit. And I know how sorry you are.’ he looked at me, tears flowing from his eyes, like a river from a mountain. “I’m sorry!” he cried. I took him into my arms and lay down on the bed, his head resting on my chest.

“I should have spoken to you. But my father, he threatened to harm you if you were my mate and I accepted you, then there was Ares saying all these bad things about you, but because I had never met you, I believed him, I mean, he is your brother, why would he lie? Right?” I took his face in my hands and wiped his tears away, he had fallen apart so easily that it was hard to believe that he had abandoned me on his own. I scribbled into the notepad that I had forgiven him.

“But why? Why forgive me so easily?” he asked between pants. And I simply replied ‘Because we are mates and it would only hurt to not forgive you.’ he looked at me, this time, a smile on his face.

“Thank you.” was all he said. Before long he stopped crying and I heard him hum. I nudged him and he looks up at me.

“Aden wants us to mark you.” he said, “I mean-I want to-but I don’t want to...” he was cut short by my lips crashing into his. Our kiss was deep, long, passionate, and wild, our tongues lapping over one another fighting for dominance, with me winning and taking the lead, exploring his mouth and him mine.

“I take it you want me to mark you?” he asked. I nodded and Ivory went wild, she could not believe that I was allowing Atto to mark and claim us.

Atto’s POV

She kept fighting to get out of my grip and run away to god knows where. She was much too energetic in the morning for me. My grip slipped and I felt her move, though she came back and her scent was still there, reassuring me that she was still close. I heard the double doors open and I cracked open my eyes to see that I was hugging her pillow. I looked outside, slightly panicked, but relaxed seeing that she was just enjoying the early morning dew and the view of the forest and valley below. As I got out of bed, a paper fell off and she said saying ‘outside looking at the view.’ I smiled and looked back at her and seeing how happy she was. I walked up behind her slipping my hands around her waist.

“Enjoying the view little one?” I asked her. She frantically nodded her head. Turning around, she pecked my lips and I lifted her off the floor and walked back into the bedroom. I sighed as I wasn’t sure how to bring up the topic of why I rejected her.

“I want to talk to you about something.” I said, she hesitated, slightly panicked, but gradually nodded her head. I was so afraid that all I could do was open and close my mouth. I must have looked like a fool to her. “Well, I already apologized for rejecting you and all. But I never told you why I had done that.” I said, and she immediately understood “You see, I did it because...” she put my hand up in front of my face and scribbled unto the notepad ‘I know why.’. I was speechless. I couldn’t understand how she could have possibly known that. I was confused.

“How do you know?” I asked, to which she scribbled, ‘I read and listened to your spirit. And I know how sorry you are.’ I looked at her, tears flowing from my eyes, like a river from a mountain. “I’m sorry!” I cried. She took me into her arms and lay down on the bed, my head resting on her chest.

“I should have spoken to you. But my father, he threatened to harm you if you were my mate and I accepted you, then there was Ares saying all these bad things about you, but because I had never met you, I believed him, I mean, he is your brother, why would he lie? Right?” she took my face in her hands and wiped my tears away, I had fallen apart so easily that it was probably hard for her to believe that I had abandoned her of my own will. She scribbled into the notepad that she had forgiven me

“But why? Why forgive me so easily?” I asked between pants. And she simply replied ‘Because we are mates and it would only hurt to not forgive you.’ I looked at her, this time, a smile on my face. “Thank you.” was all I could muster. Before long I stopped crying.

“Why don’t we mark her?” Aden, my wolf, asked. “Hmm.” was my simple reply as I thought about it.  She nudged me so look up at her. She has a questioning look on her face so I tell her.

“Aden wants us to mark you.” I said, “I mean-I want to-but I don’t want to...” I was cut short by her lips crashing into mine. Our kiss was deep, long, passionate, and wild, our tongues lapping over one another fighting for dominance, with her winning and taking the lead, exploring my mouth and I hers.

“I take it you want me to mark you?” I asked. She nodded and I could tell her wolf went wild, as she could not believe that she was allowing me to mark and claim them.

Ororo’s POV

The wild kisses drove me insane with passion. A fire erupted in my stomach and spread to my most sensitive and treasured area. As the kiss broke we were both left breathless. Atto removed his clothes then proceeded to tear mine away from my body, revealing my naked skin to his hungry eyes. He dove down unto my neck, biting and nibbling, driving past the point of no return. My treasure area becoming more drench by the second. Soon enough, I felt his canines extend, gliding teasingly across the skin on the crook of my neck. As he kissed it again, nibbling on the skin, he bit down into it, marking me, sealing the bond between us, there was pain, but it was quickly replaced by pleasure as his tongue lapped over the wound, closing it. He looked at me with love and lust in his eyes, as we rolled over and I dragged my pussy over his shaft, extending my canines, and bit into the crook of his neck marking him as he did me. Rolling us back over so that he was on top, he looked at me waiting for my permission to enter. I nodded and slowly he pushed his dick inside. I moaned softly, biting into his shoulder. He moved slowly first, as to not hurt me, but then picked up the pace, groaning, and moaning, calling out my name as we climaxed. With the sweat dripping from my body, I hummed the lullaby he sang to me. Understanding what I asked of him, he began to sing and it wasn’t long before I drifted off to sleep.
