The Assassin s Mate

As the Alpha leads me into his suite, I smile. A new glint of happiness in his eyes, a handsome smile on his face. He picks me up and places me on the soft bed. He was hovering over me in an instant. His eyes were filled with love, passion, and gentleness as they looked at my face.

"I'm not sure what I did to deserve such a wonderful gift from the Goddess." He stated. I smiled brightly at him and he returns the same smile. He brought his face closer for a kiss, but his smile vanished, replaced by an agonizing wince. When he looked down at his stomach, he saw a silver dagger in my hand slicing through his stomach. When his horrified eyes turned to me, my innocent, bright smile had vanished, replaced by a cold, expressionless face. He tried to speak, but my hand moved on its own, gliding through his throat. I pushed him off of me as his limp body fell on the bed. I stand up and clean the blood-splattered dagger from his black pants. Lighting a cigarette I walked towards the balcony. The moon was shining brightly tonight, what an wonderful sight to see. I take a long lungful of my cigarette and exhale the smoke. They said I was gifted with beauty, just a look from my innocent eyes and a smile from my lips could bring down a man to his knees. What an utterly pathetic word to describe someone so heinous. He assumed I was his mate, but what a surprise it turned out to be. Mate, a four letter word. Something I'd never given a second thought to. I'm not destined to find a soulmate. I've spent my entire life knowing how to kill, and that's how the Goddess sees me spending eternity. But things changed when he stumbled into my life.

Growing up, all I knew was training, etiquette, manner, duties, kingdom, and mate. Mate, soulmate, someone created and predestined for me Someone who will fulfill me. A gift from the Goddess herself. My mother, the Queen, used to tell me how wonderful a mate was, and how wonderful life would be with my mate. As a child, I yearned for and fantasized about my mate. But as I grew older, my priority was to fulfill my responsibilities as the Alpha, to conquer what was rightfully mine, to take over my father's throne. My days were filled with duties, and my nights were filled with desire. I never considered waiting for the one when a century had passed. I was never denied any female's nectar, but things changed when she stumbled upon my land!
