Chapter:04: New Place

HUMAN MATE:04:

One month later.

Diana woke up with a start. Even after one month has passed, the dreams of what happened that night plagued her mind. She doesn't remember much about that night, but every time she dreams about his sturdy voice and she immediately gets a tingling feeling in her belly.

Diana did not understand her reaction toward this man. After that night, she had thought that her nights would be messed up by nightmares. However, it is the opposite of whatever she had imagined that is happening to her instead.

Now, she's dreaming about her dominator's voice and she was even enjoying her time with him.

The week after the incident, Diana left that town upon her grandmother's insistence. Once her grandmother found out what happened to her, she was adamant about her decision to send her away to live with her aunt in the city. However, luck was on her side.

“Don't tell anyone about this Diana. Never let anyone find out about that mark. They will kill you without thinking twice” Her grandmother's warnings ring out loud and clear in Diana's mind as she looked down at her stomach.

Diana unconsciously reached out to touch the mark left behind on her lower back. After that night, a very large, red mark appeared on her lower back. It's a reminder that proved exactly what happened that night.

“Diana!” She heard the annoying voice of her stepmother calling out to her.

“Coming!” Diana called back.

 Diana quickly did her morning routine and surged downstairs from the mansard, which age was using as her room.

“You lazy bastard., hurry up. It's already 6:30 in the morning, you still need to prepare to go work at Ms. Logan's area” Her stepmother Nova yelled at her angrily.

Diana clenched her fists and nodded her

head like the meek Little girl she is acting

to be.

Diana is 21 in human years and finished

her degree in computer science. She

wanted to find a job and move away from

here. But her grandmother insisted that

this is the safest place for her to live for a

while.

Diana decided to heed her grandmother's

warning and stay with her father and

stepmother for the time being.

"Act timid and meek Diana. Don't bring

attention to yourself. There's so much on

the line for you to lose here. Don't let

them know what you can do. Hide your

abilities. Act like a typical human girl.

After a while, your mate will

forget about you. Then you can move on

with your life like you planned" her

grandmother's words are still fresh in

her head.

"My mother is talking to you. Are you

dumb as well?" one of her stepsisters

Zoe sneered at her.

Zoe glared at Diana, who is fair with

unblemished skin. Her almond eyes look

innocent and mysterious. Her bow-

shaped pink lips are soft and full. Her

straight nose and high cheekbones give

her oval face added beauty.

Zoe and her twin  sister Zina envy

Diana for her good looks and hourglass

the figure is beyond beautiful without

even trying.

"I will prepare to leave for Miss Logan's place now Mother" Diana controlled the urge to

snap at them and answered like an innocent dove.

“You better don't make a mistake this time and make me lose the chance. You could make a lot of money from working for Ms. Webster if you didn't run away to your grandma's one like you did. You better don't try anything funny, it was so difficult finding this new job for you”.

“I told you, it was a bad idea to bring along but you didn't listen to me”

"Spineless bitch" Diana's step-sister

Zina muttered.

Zoe and Zina are Nova's

daughters. Both of the girls are 2 years younger than Diana They share the same father. Diana's father Dino is a werewolf shifter. Even Nova, Zoe, and Zina are wolf shifters.

Unfortunately, Diana didn't inherit her

father's genes. She was blessed with her

mother's good looks and genes. 

She quickly walk to the house not too far away from where they lived. Ms. Logan is a few walks away from her home.

Upon arriving Diana immediately went to work and started cooking breakfast for Mr. Glyndon as she was instructed.

"Sorry I am late" another human maid Gina said breathlessly.

Diana's stepmother lives in a two-story house

behind the big mansion.

Nova and her daughters work as the

live-in maids in the mansion. Since the

moment Diana came here, they are taking

advantage of her and making her do all

their work.

"It's ok Gina, get to work before

Debra comes here” Diana smiled at her.

Gina lives a few miles away from the

Mansion. She leaves in the evening and

comes back in the morning. She lost

her father and mother in an accident. She

has a younger sister to take care of.

Gina is quirky and fun to work with.

” I don't want to hear her yelling so early in the morning” Gina shudder with

mock fear.

Diana giggles at Gina's comment and

they work on the elaborate breakfast

meant for Mr. Glyndon.

In the Glyndon mansion where Diana is

now working as a part-time maid, Andrew is standing shirtless on the huge balcony which opens from his room overlooking the nicely trimmed backyard followed by the vast thick forest extending for miles.

Andrew woke from his drug-induced haze

the next day evening. The girl he met after he woke up had claimed to be the one he spent the time with. However, his mind is still restless about the whole matter.

He searched every inch of the forest for two days, but there was nothing to find out since Charmaine had made sure there was nothing to be seen. Everything just disappeared Into thin air taking her jasmine scent along with her.

Her softly spoken words of concern are still

fresh in his mind. He doesn't remember

much about that night, but just the thought of her voice is enough to make

him turn on.

Now he is having wet dreams with her

voice attached to a faceless shapely body.

One thing he remembers clearly is her soft

curves. Her soft bow-shaped pink lips. He

kissed those lips for hours even after she

fainted with tiredness.

Her face is hazy and not clear at all. He is

searching for her for one month, but still

there is no sign of her anywhere.

Who are you? What were you doing in

that forest at that hour of the night

alone? Why did you offer to help a

stranger in pain? Look where your

kindness leads to? People are scared with

just a word out of my mouth. Why were

you not scared, even when I warned you to run away? ” Andrew said to no one in

particular.

Andrew didn't completely believe what Charmaine told him but he still couldn't bring himself to assume that she was lying all this time since he found her naked beside him, and she also has the same physique as the girl in his mind.

Andrew looked at the tattoo of two fangs in the shape of a human heart permanently etched on the left side of his chest, just above his heart.

"I never heard about this Andrew. If a

werewolf get intimate with their mates, they never leave a tattoo. Are you sure that your mate is her? Only creatures of equal power will be able to leave a mark like this. If she left her mark on your heart,

that means you liked the girl before the

drug took over. If she is your mate, then

she would have died with the way you lost

control over yourself but she survived which means that you two are meant to be, Charmaine is your mate then ” his friend Adonis's words ring in his head.

Andrew is getting frustrated. Everything

related to her is a mystery.

“Sir, tea" the familiar Jasmine scent

assaulted his nostrils. He looked down his balcony and looked at the fully bloomed Jasmine flowers in the flower garden.

The maid's voice is a little similar to

of his mates. His mate sounded strong

and confident. But this maid is timid and

weak.

Are you comparing your mate with a

maid Andrew? He scolded himself.

Andrew turned and accepted the coffee

brought by the maid, without sparing her

a single glance.
