Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

She shyly smiled at him, entering the house that belonged to her boyfriend, also her neighbour but had no boy next door vibe to him. She wondered with the looks he had, how could he be the boy next door liked he was.

"Should I take my shoes off?" She softly asked him, not wanting to impolite. ​​

"No, if they are not dirty keep them on or you'll catch a cold." He smiled slightly took her hand and led her forward.

"Mum, she's here." As soon as he said the words Cassandra came out and hugged Adeline. She could smell the perfume and spices with which she was probably cooking. She couldn't help but inhale it wondering if that's how a mother smelt, bringing tears to her eyes.

Cassandra having noticed this hugged the girl a bit tighter before letting go.

"Now," she looked at them with a smile, "why don't you go up to his room while the chicken gets ready?" She asked them. Adeline looked at him and then again at her before giving a nod.

"Sure, mum." Xavier replied taking her hand, "Shout."

He took Adeline's hand and lead her upstairs. Opening the door, he leads her in first and then walked in after closing the door.

"So," she said she glanced away. Why couldn't she start a conversation with people?

"So you said that your favourite animals were snakes. What do you think about wolves?" He asked sitting down on the bed next to her.

"What?" She laughed out. "I don't know, honestly." She smiled at him.

"No, come on. There must be something that you think about them." He asked, mainly because this might make everything easier.

"I think. . . loyalty. Like they choose to protect each other which you don't see in today's time." He noticed a distant look on her face while she said so.

"And love? Mates?" He asked.

"What mates?" She asked back tilted her head to the side with a curious expression.

"You know, their soul mates, the love of their life, blah blah." So she knew nothing? He thought.

"Oh," her face fell, "no I don't know about that. Do you know anything?" She had curiosity in her eyes. The genuine curiosity that he knew meant no harm.

"Well, they have destined mates for them sent from above that is, they are made for each other by the Gods themselves. They are like yin and yang, you know, fitting each other perfectly. They love each other from the bottom of their hearts, have big happy families with their happy ending." He had unknowingly leaned into her, while she stared into his eyes. His gaze dropped onto her lips and back.

"Does that," she whispered, clearing her throat she spoke again, "does that happen? Fitting each other? Loving each other?" She leaned in too, maybe Adeline knew what was happening.

"Yes, yes it does." He said and then placed his lips on her. He kissed them once and when she didn't push him, he took a hold of her upper one and nibbled on it. Startling Adeline for the curiosity flooded mind, she felt the tingles here. Not knowing what to do, she simply did as she believed he wanted her to.

She kissed back with equal intensity after some time. Loving how he made her feel with just a kiss. Lips entangled, they thought of nothing but felt the feelings they had for each other.

Xavier left her lips dragging out the bottom one by his teeth, lightly grazing it as well. She breathed hard, panting from her mouth maybe her nose but this told her that the kiss must have been a make-out session.

"Adeline," he spoke, his breathing still intact, "all I ask of you, is a chance, okay, a chance where you trust me to take care of you, protect you, feed and cook for you and love you but all I ask for in return is for you to love me back. Give me a chance for what I am, who I am and if you want me to change then we will work on it together."

No one had said that to her. She had received confessions back at her previous school but nothing felt this pure. She couldn't think of denying him. He was thoughtful, someone who didn't say his thoughts or appreciated silence as he did, spoke his heart out to him.

She cupped his cheeks with her hands, lightly grazing his cheeks with her thumbs, she pulled him in and kissed him. It wasn't the one like before, of passion for two amateurs but gentle. Gently, explaining her feelings.

"Yes, Xavier I would love to give you a chance. Like I said yesterday." She smiled against his lips and felt his stretching into a smile too.

Taking her lips back, he pushed her down to the bed and climbed over, kissing her with all the love he could muster.

Cassandra placed the chicken on the table, took the seat at the head of the table and looked where her son's room was with a smile on her face.
