The Vampire King's Hidden Mate

Not worth it

(Juriel)

It was a little hard to go out to fall asleep. I wanted to do more with Malik after he ate me out like a starving man, but when I tried to do the same for him, but he said no. I felt like I was being rejected again and it hurt. It hurt worse that when Jake rejected me.

I stand and go to the bathroom. I undress and turn on the water. I wash my hair, wash my body, shave, and wash my body again. I turn of the water and towel dried myself. I wrapped a towel around me then went out to the closet. As I open the door he walks in with a tray.

“Good morning, beautiful” Malik smiles showing me his fangs and my stomach flutters.

“Good morning” I smiled, then I went to the closet. I wore my underwear and bra. Then wore black low rise bell bottom jeans and a dark purple top. I wore black sneakers and walked out of the closet. He looks at me from head to toes.

“You look beautiful” he smiled.

“Thank you” I smiled.

“Come, I brought you breakfast. I want you to eat before you go to school” he says and I nod. I sit and begin to eat the eggs, bacon, and toast. Malik grabs my books I had before and brings them to me.

“I’ll be taking you to school and then I’ll pick you up when it’s over” Malik said.

“You don’t have to. I can always walk back here. I must be busy with more important things” I said. He gently cups my face and makes me look at him. He was serious.

“Nothing is more important than you” he says. I looked into his eyes and I knew he was telling the truth.

“Okay” I nodded. He leans closer to kiss me but instead kisses my forehead. When he pulled back he chuckled.

“Don’t pout princess” he said and I blushed. I turned to finish my food and he chuckled again. I went to brush my teeth then walked towards him.

“Ready to go, Princess?” he asked. I looked around making sure I had everything.

“Yes, I’m ready” I nodded.

“Okay, let’s go” he said. I followed him down the stairs. I saw some of the vampires mingling and drinking blood.

“Hello… Malik” a beautiful blonde female vampire said looking at Malik.

“Hello, Coral” Malik said with a curt nod. The beautiful vampire looks at Malik like a piece of meat.

“Your- Malik, would you like a glass of blood?” Coral asked ignoring that I was there.

“Thank you, but not right now. I have something important to do first” Malik said taking my hand in his.

“Let’s go princess” Malik said.

“Sir, you haven’t fed since she’s been here” Coral said and I could hear the worry in her voice.

“I’ll feed when I get back” Malik said. He went to walk, but I didn’t move making him look at me.

“You need to feed, please” I said looking up at him. He sighs then takes the glass of blood from Coral. He smells the blood and his eyes glow red. He looks at me and went to turn around, but I stopped him.

“It doesn’t bother me” I assured him with a smile. He smiles back at me then leans towards me and kisses my forehead and drinks the blood. When he’s done he hands Coral the glass then takes my hand again and he leads me out. He opens the car door for me and I smiled.

“Thank you” I said and got in. He walks around the car and gets in.

“Do you know ow to drive?” Malik asks as he starts driving.

“Yes, I do. Why?” I asked.

“Just wanted to know” he smiled and took my hand in his and kissed my knuckles. I blush and he chuckled. I turned on the radio and ‘Bloody Pleasures by Blutengel’ came on. I hummed along to the song and sang lowly a few parts.

“You like Blutengel?” Malik asked a little surprised.

“Yeah, I like their music. I’m actually a bit shocked you like them. I thought you were going to come out with classical or something” I said truthfully making him chuckle.

“I like classical, but I also like modern music” he sad and I nodded. The drive was over too soon for my liking. He pulls up to the school and parks. I notice Jake with Glenda kissing her like there was no tomorrow. I rolled my eyes and grabbed my books.

“Are you going to be okay?” Malik asked and I noticed his eyes glowing red as he sees Jake too.

“I’ll be fine. It doesn’t bother me and it doesn’t hurt either” I assured him. He takes my phone from my hand and puts his number on it.

“If you need me, I want you to call me and I’ll come to get you, okay?” he asked handing me my phone.

“Okay, I promise I’ll call if I need you” I promised. He takes my hand and kisses my knuckles. I felt disappointed thinking that he was going to kiss me, but he didn’t. I made sure to mask my feelings and gave him a small smile. I got out of the car, but before I could close the door he was in front of me making me gasp. He gently cups my face and kisses me. I freeze for a second before responding back to his kiss. I hear a growl then Malik’s pulls me behind him.

“Let go of my mate” I hear Jake growl.

“She’s not your mate anymore, pup. You rejected her and she accepted your rejection. You were just kissing on that other she wolf and now you think you have a claim on her? Check yourself pup” Malik growls and it sends a shiver down my spine, the good kind of shivers. I took Malik's hand in mine making him look at me and I smiled up at him.

“He’s not worth it. School is over at two. I’ll wait for you here” I tell him.

“Alight Princess. I’ll be here to pick you up” he smiles. I go on my tippy toes and kiss his lips making him pull me closer, and I smiled against his lips. I pulled back and walked towards the school. I went to my locker and grabbed my book, then headed to my first class, which, unfortunately, was with Glenda.

"Oh, look who's here, the slut" Glenda said, and I rolled my eyes before looking out the window.

"Hey everyone, Juriel was outside kissing another man after Jake, rejected her" Glenda said.

"Yes, I was and what?' That does not make me a slut. Unlike you, I don't go around sleeping with every guy in the school or the pack. That man I was kissing is my first kiss. Yes, I was rejected by my mate and thanks to that man I was kissing today, I'm alive, because my mate, a soon to be Alpha, didn't give a s**t about his goddess given mate. I'm glad, he rejected me because I couldn't be with someone like him. So you can have him. You can be with me and I don't care. I have a good man in my life and I won't let him go for anything or anyone. If you think that by telling the class or whomever you want that I was kissing another man after being rejected by my mate then go ahead. If you want to tell them that that makes me a slut then go ahead let be a slut, but at least I'm not f*****g everything with a d**k" I said and everyone gasped while others laughed. I could see the anger in eyes, but I ignored her.
