Its been a long while since I last posted something.
I'm not sure exactly when the next chapter for my other book will come out but I know it'll be in this month.
Maybe.
A good maybe.
Hope you enjoy!
Btw, if someone actually have a picture of a hot Asian guy that looks like this please send it to me so I can give a more clear idea to what he looks like.
And if ya'll know any cute Asian guys, I'm single 😉.
That was cringy as fuck. I'm sorry. I'm going now.
This is why I'm still single.
BYE!

Aurora POV:
I had no words to emphasize how attractive he is.
I had no words to emphasize how scary he is.
He was huge. From where I was sitting, he looked to be over 6'6 and packed with nothing but solid muscle. It was like his muscles had muscles. But as muscular as he is, he had this leanness to him so his body didn't look too muscular and gross.
I eyed his muscular arm as it littered up and down with tattoos. The tattoos made him look even more attractive and even more scary if that was possible, along with his pierced ears.
His face was gorgeous. He was obviously from an Asian descendant, but it looks like he was mixed with something else. I had no idea what and I wanted nothing more than to find out. Which is weird. He had this thick mass of black hair, that was currently pulled into a low man bun, that I just wanted to run my hands through. His nose was slightly crooked, a sign that it has been broken before.
I wondered how. I couldn't imagine anyone wanting to pick a fight with him. The size of his hand was almost the same size as my face. I knew one punch from him and I would end up six foot deep underground.
I continued to eye his face and body, not being able to help myself. His smooth tan skin brought out his dark tattoos and his dark blackish brown eyes that were staring directly into my doe gray ones.
I blinked.
Oh my god.
My eyes widened as I realized that I was staring at the incredibly handsome and very scary man. I tore my eyes away from him, shrinking into my seat in a sad attempt to hide myself. What if I angered him with my annoying staring? What if he's on his way over here to kill me for staring at him? I can't believe this is how I'm going to die. By a handsome stranger who looked like he could kill me by just giving me a dangerous look. I can't believe I'm going to die before I get to eat my food or finish my book.
How cruel can this world be?
I froze when I heard footsteps coming towards me. I tried to shrink myself more in my seat but I knew it was pointless.
I angered him.
He was coming over to kill me.
I'm going to die.
My eyes dropped to my lap as his footsteps stopped beside me. I could see his shiny black combat boots, and the bottom of his black sweatpants from this position. I could feel the hot heat emitting from his body from where he was standing. I tensed, squeezing my eyes shut as I waited for him to do something. Was he going to punch me? Was he going to throw me out the window? Was he going to let me eat my food before he killed me?
I hope he does the last one. I'm really hungry.
"Look at me." My body trembles at the deep, accented mixed, huskiness of his voice. His voice sounded so manly. It made me tingle in places that have never tingled before.
I gasp at the sparks and tingles I felt when a hand reached out to grab my chin. My eyes screwed shut as I felt a hand grip my chin, gently lifting my face to meet his gaze. "I said to look at me. Eyes. Now."
I slowly peeled my eyes open, peering nervously into his dark eyes. I swallowed deeply at the intenseness of his gaze. He was so intimidating and dark. Just being near his presence was terrifying.
"Good girl." He practically purred out. His dark eyes flashed as he leaned in my face. "Name."
"A-Aurora." I stuttered out meekly.
"Gorgeous name baby girl." He let go of my chin and made his way to the seat across from me.
I didn't move from my awkward, curled up position as he settled in the seat. I had no idea what to do. My assumption was that he was going to kill me, but here I am. Scared out of my mind but alive. I wonder if he's the type to play with their "food" before he goes in for the kill. That makes the most sense. Well that, or I'm overreacting about this situation and need to calm down.
"No need to be scared, baby girl. I'm not going to hurt you. I would never do something like that to you." For some weird reason, I trusted his words. I slowly uncurled myself, straightening until I was sitting properly again. As much as I trusted his words, my body was still tense. A last plan of defense if that made any sense. Just in case he wanted to pull something unexpected like reaching over and ripping my head off.
I think I watch too many horror shows.
He eyed my still tensed body with a slight frown. "My name is Axel."
I perked up at the name, "A-Axel? There are p-people who go to t-the school I go to t-talking about a g-guy named Axel. A-Are you going to S-Sel-" I frowned, stopping myself as I tried to say the name of my college right. "It's a college c-called-"
"Selíni College." My cheeks flushed hotly at how he fluently pronounced the name of the college. My eyes fell to the table as I shyly nodded.
"Eyes Aurora." Axel commanded.
My eyes immediately darted back up to his dark ones.
"To answer your question, I am going to Selíni. I start tomorrow."
No wonder why everyone was talking about him. I would be talking about him too if I knew this is what he looked like. I wouldn't know if it would be to gush about how handsome he looked or to cry about how scary he is.
I have mixed feelings when it comes to him.
"What have you heard about me?" Axel asks, breaking me out of my thoughts. His pink lips pulled into a smirk as he leaned forward, his eyes darken as his voice deepened. "Have you heard anything you like?"
"I h-heard that you haven't found y-your mate. I don't know what that means but a lot of girls seemed to be h-happy about that. Especially N-Norah." Remembering how excited Norah was about the mention of Axel coming back, and the fact that she would keep saying how she had a boyfriend who was going to return soon, I leaned back into my seat. My body tensed up even more as I quickly began to look around the cafe. It wasn't hard for me to place two and two together. Axel must be Norah's boyfriend. If Norah finds me with her boyfriend, she would ruin my life before skinning me alive. "Is N-Norah your girlfriend?"
"Oh, god no." I watched as Axel's handsome face twisted into disgust. His thick brows scrunched up, his pink lips twisted downwards, and his eyes darken in an emotion of disgust and anger. "Norah means nothing to me. She is not my girlfriend, not my mate, only a pain in my fucking ass. I would never choose her when I could have you, kitten."
I blinked, "Me? Choose me? What?"
What did he mean by choosing me? Why would he want me when he could have Norah?
"I'll explain when you're ready." He answered vaguely before jabbing a thumb in a different direction. "I think your food is coming."
My head snapped towards where he was pointing, and to my horror and happiness, Cherie and Jeneise were walking towards my table with trays of food. A part of me was happy that my food had finally arrived. I was starving and wanted nothing more than to stuff the greasy, cheesy meal into my mouth. Another part of me was horrified that the handsome guy in front of me was going to see how much I could eat.
I could already imagine the stares of disgust and snide comments.
I bet he'll go to school tomorrow and talk about how much I eat like a pig. How I'm a fat, disgusting loser who likes to eat alone. I can see my somewhat peaceful college life going down the drain right now.
"Here you go doll! I hope you enjoy your food!" Cherie chirped out as she placed my meals in front of me. I swallowed thickly at the delicious, greasy sight in front of me. I wanted to stuff it all in my face. But I didn't want to be judged.
"T-Thank y-you." I mumbled.
"No problem sweetie!" She grinned as she turned to Axel. "Here you go, King Axel ! Your usual!"
I watched, confused, as Jeneise placed down multiple trays of food in front of Axel. It was twice the amount of what I ordered.
When did Axel order food?
And why did Cherie call Axel, King? Is that a nickname for him?
That's a weird nickname.
"Thank you Cherie. You two may leave." His eyes never left me as he dismissed Cherie and Jeneise. Cherie left after she tossed me a happy, knowing smile and a wink. Jeniese left without a word, something I was used to. Jeneise wasn't much of a talker. He hasn't said more than one sentence since I've begun to eat here. Cherie said that it was normal. That he has always been that way and that I shouldn't take his silence personally.
I never do. It was nice to have a little quietness sometimes. It was a contrast from the always talking, bubbly Cherie. I think he knew that by the amused grin that'll appear on his face whenever Cherie would rant to me about why they should bring back blueberry cobbler to the menu.
My awkwardness returned as we were left alone again. Should I try to eat? Would he do something if I do? Would he say something if I do?
"Aren't you going to eat, kitten? I'm sure you're hungry."
I hesitated, "I-It's a lot."
"So? It's a good thing you eat a lot. Your too small." His eyes left my face, slowly traveling down to observe as much of my body as he could see. His gaze slowly went back up, pausing on my chest, neck, and lips before meeting my eyes again. He smirked, "Plus, I like a girl who isn't afraid to eat. You have a healthy appetite. There's nothing wrong with that."
Not giving his word a second thought, I reached out and snatched up my burger. I hummed in happiness as my teeth sinked into the sandwich, tearing out a bite as I chewed it up. I let go of the burger with one hand as I picked up a fork, stabbing the cheesy curly fries and stuffed that into my mouth too.
"Good?" He continued to smirk.
I nodded, shoving another fork load into my mouth.-

Axel POV.
I watched as my mate adorably stuffed her face with the greasy meal that my clan members made for her.
I can't believe I found her. After all this time of searching, I finally found her. This was something that I wasn't going to take for granted. With her home used to be in America, and the fact that she's human, it was hard for me to find her. She didn't belong to a pack. She didn't belong to a coven. She didn't belong to a group. She didn't have a hint of demon or any other type of supernatural creature scent on her. No wonder why I couldn't find her when I roamed through the world of supernatural creatures.
No wonder why I couldn't find her sweet scent of peaches and white chocolate.
She smells so fucking good. I wanted nothing more than to hold her in my arms.
And fuck her to oblivion.
I was searching in the wrong places. I never really thought my mate was going to be human. It wasn't like I had anything against them or anything. I've thought of the possibility that my mate could be human, but it was so rare that I brushed it off.
I should've trusted my instinct. That nagging feeling I had, something in me told me that I was searching in the wrong place and I ignored it. If I didn't, I could've had my mate at my side.
I internally sigh, angry with myself.
"Aren't you g-going to eat?" Aurora mumbled out with her mouth full of food, "Your f-food is going to get cold."
My heart warmed at the thought of my mate being concerned about me. I sent her a smile, something I usually don't do to people. I'm not an emotional type of person. I wasn't one to express useless things like that.
I live for the fear that I cause amongst the creatures that spreaded across the world. I was known to be a ruthless, emotionless, cold hearted monster. I was the bedtime story parents told their kids about whenever they've been bad. Creatures had nightmares about me. The fear that I get from them was something that I've grown used to. Something that I've learned to love in a twisted way.
I ruled over them.
I kept things in order.
I've been doing it my way for a long time. I was used to being alone. I was used to being an emotionless bastard.
I wasn't used to the irritating warmth that was spreading in my body because of her. I wasn't used to the onslaught of annoying, happy emotions I get when she just glances in my direction. I wasn't used to any of these new changes.
But I love it.
And I want it.
"Don't worry kitten, I'm going to eat." To ease her worries, I picked up a burger of my own and began to eat. I had ordered myself a little snack so Aurora wouldn't feel awkward about eating by herself. Just a plate of burgers, a few trays of potato wedges and onion rings, a plate of chicken wraps, and a glass of lemon water.
This was a little snack to me. To a human, this was a meal for a family.
I eyed my munching mate as I continued to eat, the urge to hear her voice becoming apparent.
"So," I began after I swallowed. I waited till her doe gray eyes was on me, like it belongs, to continue on what I was saying. "Tell me about yourself baby girl."
