Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

The bell finally rang indicating that it was now lunch. Collecting her books, Adeline looked over to the door where she saw him standing. She raised her eyebrows in an attempt to question him but he looked away ignoring her and thus making her frown. They headed towards the lockers. Keeping the books in their places Xavier kept his hand on his mate's lower back to mark his territory indicating to the people that she was his mate and to back off. He was a dominant, aggressive and impulsive lycanthrope but he wasn't stupid. He won't put his entire race in danger just for the special and for life Mate bond.

He led her to the cafeteria after placing her books in the lockers and pulled her towards the benches in the end. Looking into her eyes, he said, "Don't move. It's my treat since it's your first day here." Adele nodded, it was free food but it also felt like his voice had its aura; warning the person not to disobey him.

"Fruits are preferred!" She called after to which he nodded. The cafeteria was pretty big. The food that the people were carrying was looking amazing, not that the food in her old school wasn't good, she had not expected it to be like a plate straight from a famous chef's Kitchen. The chairs were mostly occupied by couples who were looking at each other in pure love and adoration. It was peaceful looking around. Surprisingly there were no such things as jocks or Queen- B or any of the cliché drama which she was happy about.

Nothing about this place seemed normal.

He came back after a minute or two with a tray in his right hand. He kept it down on the table they were sitting at. Out of curiosity and hunger, she peered at the tray. It held two plates one with lots of chicken wings and the other a plastic glass containing fruit salad. It was really beautiful to be eaten. The strawberries, mangos, kiwis and the berries were all perfectly aligned. She didn't want to want to eat it anymore, she wanted to steal it, hid it in her hoodie and lock it in a safe for safekeeping. She was so engrossed in admiring the beauty of the fruit salad that had a mouth open a little bit and caused drool to flow down it. She still hadn't realised it.

Yet Xavier had. He was looking at his little Goddess in admiration. She was the most beautiful creature that he had ever come across, a creation together by the Gods and Goddesses of love, beauty, innocence and perfect for him to make love to. He couldn't help but love the mate Fate had selected for him. She was perfect. Though she needed a few lessons for their kind and her behaviour towards them she would come along just fine, he would make sure of it.

"Eat and stop drooling." He chuckled and she was broken out of her trance. She immediately checked and wiped it horrified to find him correct, opened the lid, grabbed a fork and started eating the strawberries on the top. Satisfied with her on obeying him he started eating his food. The salad was as delicious as she had anticipated or even more. She had half expected it to be one of those cafeterias where an ugly and rude lady with a big black mole on her face was assigned and served greasy and stinky food. She knew of the glances Xavier was stealing, but the awkward thing was, his eyes were filled with adoration and Content.

Adeline couldn't help but wonder why would she obey him without giving it a thought? It was like his voice had the authority of its own, daring anyone to disobey him. He was pretty handsome, his height and the confidence stand gave him more attention than required he looked a bit overgrown to be here. She loved the blue eyes he had, not like hers. Dull coffee brown. She loved to wear contact lenses and she mostly wore brown.

The colour belonged to her mother, something's he had been robbed of. She was happy and grateful to God that her father hadn't turned to alcohol, sure he had a rough patch but his friends helped him through it. So she didn't think of changing it again. It was something inside her, forcing them to listen and oblige to his every command. Her brain couldn't have second thoughts to even thinking of denying his wishes. Adeline continued to think while eating when all of a sudden she felt nothing in her mouth but an empty fork.

She looked up when she heard a low chuckle. Xavier was looking at her with wonder in his eyes. Even if he wasn't smiling anyone could tell that he was happy from his eyes. She blushed, feeling embarrassed in front of him. She darted her eyes left to right on the table in desperation to avoid the embarrassment she was facing. Saved by the bell she looked up to him to find me gone with their plates.

He's too fast. Just like a bolt. Bolt. A giggle escaped her mouth when she imagined his head on the dog's shoulder, barking. Feeling eyes on her she looked up to find him staring at her with a small happy smile playing on his lips. He held out his hand to be grabbed by hers and they started walking hand in hand through the corridors.

People glanced that they and Xavier's power and dominance rolled in waved off in waved around them. Everyone knew that a Lycan had found his mate and who she was. There were no questions asked. He was the alpha male and he had claimed his mate.

It was a matter of time when she would be marked.

This and the last period was free since the teachers were on a leave. He took her outside on the bleachers where everyone, mostly couples were sitting, enjoying the company of their beloved while basking in the heat of the sun.

"You are beautiful, " he commented staring at her.

She blinked and redness took her face and ears. She found him handsome and here he was, telling her how beautiful she was.

"oh, Thank you." She whispered.

The second last bench was the one where they sat, looking ahead to themselves. Xavier was still holding her hand and rubbing circles on it with his thumb when suddenly he turned to look at her.
