Fated is overrated

In our haste, we completely forgot that we were naked and were supposed to be hiding out in the bathroom. Damon is actually laying on the floor laughing by now, while Lola covers her face with her hands in embarrassment. 'Sh*t, we embarrassed her dude' I link

Zane quickly, before saying to Lola "I'm so sorry Lola! We got carried away.

We didn't mean to embarrass you". I quickly grab some towels from the bathroom for me and Zane, and wrap it around my torso, as Zane does the same. "Tell Felix.." Zane spits out his name as if it were venom ".. that Lola and her mates will be right down". It takes Damon some more time to stop laughing, but eventually his laughter subsides.

"I hate to break it to you buddy, but I don't think he is here to see you" Damon winks at Zane, still laughing. I know he is just playing, but for f*ck sake man, is this guy annoying today.

First, he interrupts our little moment. And then he is taunting us to get a rise out of us. To my surprise, yet great relief, Lola scolds her brother "that's enough Dame, come on". Damon pouts at his sister, saying "hawwww! But I was having such fun!". She chuckles lightly, before nudging him towards the door.

"I'll see you downstairs!" "OK, don't take too long with your boytoys. Your man Felix is waiting downstairs" Damon yells, while running off fast. Zane and I snarl loudly in unison, and I have a hard time controlling Lex at the thought of this guy wanting to steal our precious mate.

Lex is scratching at my barriers to be let out, he wants to rip the f*cker to pieces. And frankly, so do I. But, not only can we not do that because it would ignite a war, I know Lola would disapprove of it as well.

And I don't want to do anything she disapproves of ever again, so I fight back against Lex to suppress him. Just as I am about to lose the battle and feel my canines and claws elongating, I feel Lola's soft body pressing against my own.

As her scent envelops me, I feel Lex is starting to calm down. "Calm down Lex, Lance. I am yours" she speaks softly, with a smile on her face. Lex whimpers in my mind, and I can relate to him so badly.

Even though she says the words, she won't fully be ours until we have marked her. "You aren't yet, Lola. Lex and Lance will be on edge until the day you will hopefully let us mark you" I answer honestly.

She nods in understanding, before saying "it might be best that you guys don't come out to greet him with me, then. He is a good person, he doesn't deserve to be harmed simply for caring about someone's wellbeing". I fight hard to suppress a low growl wanting to slip out. I know I am being ridiculously jealous here, but I can't help it.

I wish the f*cker would just f*ck off back to his own kingdom and leave my other half alone. Lola chuckles, before saying "you know, you don't have to rub your scent all over me in a last ditch attempt.

I am pretty sure your scent is ALL over me already" with a wink. I didn't even realize I was subconsciously rubbing myself against her to sort of mark my territory in a way. Which is ridiculous, since he is a warlock, and won't even be able to smell it. Only wolf kinds would. Lola pulls away, and heads towards the door.

She looks back at us, smiling, before saying "there are clean clothes for you both on the dresser. Meet me in the dining hall when you are done, OK?". And with that, she walks through the door, closing it behind her. Lex is going crazy inside me, howling and pacing around frantically, and I can't say I am doing much better.
