“Ok, so now lemme get this straight. You're unable to live with Derek or see him as your step brother because you once had a fling with him before?” Bonnie inquired while staring directly into my eyes, and I sighed as I realized she had a very poor guess.I sat on the chair and placed my hands on her shoulder, increasing the curiosity in her. In an attempt to find the answers to her query, she grasped my chin and looked across my face.“Bonnie, you won't believe what happened,”It's difficult for you and Derek to move on from those prior experiences, and you're considering dating. Is that all there is to it?”“No Bonnie! Derek turned out to be my mate! I can't believe it. It's making me go crazy, Bonnie.”I expressed and disclosed everything to Bonnie and I could see her eyes enlarging with each word.“Are you really telling the truth, Isabel? Derek is really your mate?!” Bonnie asked once again and I nodded, pouting my lips like I was about to cry. “Then that's great news! You've a

“Derek! Derek! Please stop!” I cried as I approached Derek, wrapping my arms around him as I tried to pull him off Mason. He continued to punch Mason without flinching at all. Many kids congregated around, agog at what they had witnessed. A few of them had cellphones and were recording Derek and Mason fighting on camera. A huge guy hurried in their direction and pulled Derek off Mason. Our principal, Mr. Plummer, walked in and looked at Derek with a look of bewilderment on his face. With Mason in one hand, he steadied his spectacles and dragged Derek by the other hand.“The two of you! Come with me. NOW!” He thundered.“Including you, Isabel!” He emphasized as he turned back to face me. My eyes went wide and I could hear my heartbeat in my ear as I followed him. Why did Derek do this? I know he was trying to protect me from Mason but he shouldn't have gone too far by beating him up.At the Principal's office~Mr Plummer adjusted himself on his recliner, his eyes fixed on all three of

His room was brightly lit from various lights coming from the windows and the majestic chandelier that hung from the center of the circular ceiling. The furniture in his room was in hues of gold dust. A heavy king size bed lay in the center of the room with a gigantic mirror behind, decorated with golden intricate designs.Pale gold rug covered the circular floor of the room while multiple columns and dome shaped arches in rust gold shade made up the walls.He closed the door with his feet before carrying me gently in a bridal style. Our eyes locked and I could feel my heart thudding frantically against my chest. A gasp released from my mouth when he placed me down on his huge bed. He played gently with my hair, pushing some strands behind my ear as he maintained a gaze with me.His scent filled my nostrils and I could feel myself getting wet from his touches.“Do you know how happy I am to see that you finally accept me as your mate? I'm so excited that I'll finally get to mark you

As time passed, the date of my mother's wedding to Mr Walter grew closer. Preparations were underway, and invitation cards had been mailed to friends, family, and acquaintances. My mother became increasingly ecstatic as she realized she was on the verge of accomplishing her dream of marrying again. I expressed my excitement for her, but within me was a bundle of nerves and worries. Derek and I kept our mate bond private from them. We didn't want to ruin their happy moments, so we chose to conceal the truth from them. One Saturday afternoon, some of my mother's old friends came to visit. I could see them admiring me and eyeing me as I served them some snacks for lunch. I smiled warmly at them, feeling a little nervous from their awkward looks. They were three in total, one of whom I knew was a coworker from my mother's workplace. Her name was Mrs. Daphne Velazquez. She is Mexican, and Theodore, her son, is a friend of mine. When Derek showed up, I saw them widening their eyes as they

The cab pulled over and piled on the side of the road. Derek got down before me and ran over to my side, hoping to open the door for me. I bit my lip, believing it wasn't necessary because I was afraid people would be watching, particularly those we knew. Perhaps I was being overly dramatic and exaggerating; it doesn't matter if he opens the door for me like a gentleman. Gosh! All boys do it, including brothers.He held my hands, intending to give them a quick kiss, but I widened my eyes, signaling him to stop. He nodded, his gorgeous teeth showing through a loving smile, and he paused what he was about to do, sensing my discomfort. The taxi driver peeked at us, dimples appearing on the side of his cheek as he flashed us a cool smile. He was probably admiring how loving Derek was. Aren't I lucky to have such a wonderful soul as him as my mate?“Thank you,” I sighed and mumbles after alighting from the taxi. I was dressed in a pink crop top that exposed my slender tummy and light blue
