Chapter Text
"What the fuck do you want!? Why did you push him away!?" I yelled at her. Of course, she didn't answer, as always. But this time I am NOT going to back down.
Even if I knew she could easily kill me. But a part of me knew she would never do that.
"Answer me! Why didn't you let him kiss me!? Who do you think you are!?" No answer. Though I did notice her taking a long breath, as if not to get angry.
"Since you won't answer me! LISTEN! I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT! I CAN KISS WHOEVER I WANT! I CAN FUCK-' I was slammed against a wall with her hand around my throat and her eyes deep red, glaring at me.
She growled loudly and angrily.
"You. Are. Mine. Never. EVER. Say. That. Again." She said squeezing my neck every time she said a word, making sure I heard everything.
I wanted to say something back. But her red eyes ensured that being sassy would not help me at all!
Plus, with her hand around my neck...I am sure the only reason I am standing right now is her grip on my neck.
I am sure if I said something I would only stutter and embarrass myself.
"Understand?" Her eyes were daring me to say something other than a yes.
And I wasn't going to take that dare.
I nodded my head as fast as I could with her grip on me.
"Words."
"Y-y-yes..." I said.
She smirked and whispered near my ear.
"Good girl."
I whimpered, my face is beet red right now knowing that she heard it.
She pulled back and sat back down on the sofa.
"You should go home. It's late." She said as if the last few minutes didn't happen.
I didn't say anything and gathered my things and headed toward the door. When I was out of the doorway, I remembered.
Wait a second.
"Wh-What did-did you mean by saying I am your-yours?" I stuttered. Just Great! I can't even talk correctly.
I waited for 1 minute.
Another minute.
I sighed, she probably wasn't going to answer me. Again.
I turned to head out when I heard something I never thought I would hear.
"You are my mate." I froze.
"What!?" I exclaimed as looked at the back of her head which was busy reading whatever was on her phone.
She didn't answer, she just stood up took her purse, and headed toward the elevator without even a glance at me.
"Just fucking great!" I yelled out.
I stomped my foot and headed towards another elevator.
I am her mate!
That hot meanie is my mate!?
But how's that even possible!?
I like guys!
I am not a lesbian! Or Bi!
But...I was turned on when she pinned me against the wall and used that hot voice on me.
Ugh!
I need my BFF!

•••INTRODUCTION•••
Kamilah Akeem Sayeed is an 8720-year-old vampire. She has lived many lives. She has suffered more than any person should or deserve to. She can't say her life as a human was all sunshine and rainbows but she was happy. As happy as a woman under the Harifian Culture in Egypt. Her life, imagination, questions, and knowledge were limited but she was content.
But then her life changed overnight for the better and worse. She experienced, saw, and did things that seemed impossible.
She has experienced every emotion a person can feel but love. While she did believe to have found it once but she soon realized it was a mirage...designed especially for her.
She has seen a lot- from people hunting and gathering for survival to people using rectangular innovations to have food at their doorstep... something so weak her family would have used it as fodder for the fire, not knowing its many possibilities.
It took her hundreds of years before even knowing that she can have a soulmate. The perfect person for her and she tried to find the person but she gave up with a heavy heart.
After 8720 years, she knew either her mate had already died or she wasn't destined to meet hers. Until she walked through the door...
After losing all hope, was she finally getting a shot at happiness? And love?
Meraki Hera Williams is 24, a Computer lover, who graduated with a CS degree from Harvard without paying a dime. Yes. She is THAT smart. She dreams to open her own company one day with her best friend, Layla. She might not know much about computers but she knows how to crack a deal and loves video games with all her heart.
She loves her best friend with everything she has. After all, after her father kicked her out she was the one who supported her and made sure she always had a smile on her face. Her best friend has ALWAYS had her back! No matter the situation!
She is sassy and a black belt in karate but she is also the MOST kind, friendly, and understanding person one can come across. She keeps her head held high and NEVER backs down from a challenge.
Though there is one thing she always misses in her life. Love.
She has had several boyfriends! But not one of them made her feel the love she reads in the books. She knows it's not possible, sparks and all but she wants someone she will miss even if they have been apart for an hour, someone she can do the lovey-dovey shit with and not cringe!
Until one day she felt a weird fluttering in her stomach when she looked into those dark brown eyes...
Only one problem.
She is a woman! How is it possible!? She is straight! She has NEVER felt anything towards another woman!
What's so special about her? Is she the person who will make her dreams come true?
Lyla Smoak, a 24-year-old businesswoman. She only loves three things in her life her best friend, her business dream, and her videogames. Her only family is Mira and she loves that fact!
She could care less about her parents...why? Only Mira knows and she has vowed to keep it that way. She hates that part of her past and prefers to keep the truth buried.
She hasn't had many girlfriends. She only has had one girlfriend, her first and probably the last because she doesn't believe anyone would want to be with her after knowing her...or her family, or would be strong enough to face the consequences of dating her...
Even if she wishes otherwise she knows she probably won't be lucky enough to find love.
Will she find someone strong enough to handle her messy past? And a complicated present?
Scarlet Lennox is a 6016-year-old vampire. Among all her colleagues lived the least years as a human, and she couldn't be happier! She suffered a lot as a human, she loves the power and control she has with her vampire identity and wouldn't change reality for anything!
She was also the only one among her colleagues to be voluntarily turned...the circumstances remain unknown. No one asked and even if someone did they won't get an answer. The only fact people know about her mortal life is she hated it!
She is selfish and she owns it. She doesn't live, work, or does anything for anyone else. She lives every day to the fullest.
Unlike most supernaturals, she isn't dying for a mate. No. She hopes she never finds her mate. She has seen what happens when you lose your mate, you become dead inside...broken. She never wants to be bonded with someone who will become her weakness.
BUT!
She also knows that once she meets her, she won't be able to resist the attraction nor would she be able to reject her; "Mate bond is a wonderful curse until it's broken" -She has these words imprinted in her brain & heart.
Is she destined for a beautiful curse? Or a horribly broken bond?
