My King Mates
Chapter Two

The room fell silent. No one spoke a word. Either from shock or because they too were scared when the two men stood up. One from the Werewolf side and one from the Vampire side.

What’s going on here? Why did they both call me mate? There must be someone else nearby.

“King Sawyer, King Dante, What a pleasure,” the announcer says as he bows. So that’s why no one is saying a word.

“I’d like my mate,” King Sawyer says. I study King Sawyer. So he’s the king of the Werewolves. He’s a handsome-looking guy. From what I can tell he’s tall much taller than me. He has dark hair, gray eyes, tanned skin, and a stubble of facial hair.

“Dream on dog. She’s MY mate” another voice speaks. My eyes leave the Werewolves and travel to the Vampire King. He isn’t nearly as handsome as King Sawyer. He looks to be tall but shorter than the Werewolf King. He has what seems like long black hair, amber eyes, and pale skin.

“I’m sorry my lords but since you are both claiming her as your mate we need to hold a trail” a new voice speaks. I look over at the end of the stage where the voice came from to replace a man walking towards me.

“Tomorrow Alpha King Sawyer and King Dante come to the council to discuss what will happen further. As for now, she’ll come back with me.” The short man says.

He nods towards someone behind me then walks off the stage without another word. I look behind me to see the man standing behind me who’s already looking at me coldly. Without a word, he grabs my shoulders and walks me off the stage.

We walk through an opening on the opposite side of where I walked in to replace the man arguing with the Alpha King.

The man behind me and I stay a distance away to not disturb them. After what seemed like forever but was only a few seconds the alpha King looks at me before he leaves. His face didn’t give off any emotion. It was hard to tell what they were talking about.

The councilman fixes his suit then walks over to us. “Ready to see your new temporary home?” He asks with a smile.

Before I could say anything we start walking. Where is he bringing me? Am I not being sold? Well of course I’m not being sold. Two Kings declared me as their mate. My biggest concern and worry is what’s going to happen now? Who am I going to end up with? Am I going to be treated like a mate or a slave?

“Until the council decides who you’ll belong to you’ll be staying at the council building. They have rooms for guests and I guess your a guest” he tells me.

I nod in understanding. The only reason why I’m being treated so kindly is because of who my two mates are.

We reach a large metal door. A guard next to it opens the door and bright light shines through. I close my eyes to the brightness.

“Come on walk,” the man behind me tells me after I felt a small push. I begin to walk. “Now little girl don’t think about running. This place is full of guards and they won’t hesitate to take you down. I also don’t think your mates would like the news that you tried to run off” the counsel man tells me.

To tell you the truth I’m not planning on running. I somewhat value my life. Oh how much I wish I could speak out but I know if I do I’ll get punished.

I don’t think he understands this but I’m not like other slaves. I’m not planning on running. This is my life and I’ve accepted that. Just because I’m mates to Kings doesn’t mean I’ll ever be free. I’ll forever be a slave and I’ll do anything in my power to not get punished.

The guard leads me towards a long black weird-looking vehicle. When we get up to it a man standing next to the vehicle opens the door. “Get in Slave,” the guard tells me annoyed. I don’t waste a second and quickly get in. “Hello, Amber,” a voice says. I freeze and look towards the voice to replace that guy from the auction. “You may sit on the bench there and once you sit down we can talk more,” he tells me while pointing at the bench that I’m next to that’s between two doors.

I nod my head and take a seat. “Amber I’m Walter and since you are going to be Queen you may call me Walter. I run and take care of the auctions. You will be staying at the Counsel Mansion until me and a few others decided who you will be with.” Walter begins. “By tomorrow we will have a schedule for what the next couple of weeks to months will look like. Over this time you’ll be seeing King Sawyer and King Dante but when you are not with them you’ll learn how to be with a Queen and about the Werewolf & Vampire world.” Walter further explained.

After he finishes talking to me he pulls out a black rectangle thing that lights up. I look out the window and notice trees and other vehicles are passing by in a blur. Didn’t even realize we are moving. “All the slave rules do still apply here. But if you do have a question you can ask but try to keep them to the minimum” Walter tells me. I don’t even move my head to look at him since I can tell he isn’t looking at me while he talks.

A little trick I picked up in the cells. I can tell when someone is or isn’t looking at me while they talk. I think it’s a cool superpower of mine. For the rest of the who knows how long drive it was quite. Walter was on his glowing box-shaped rectangle while I watched outside of the vehicle. The last time I saw the outside I was 9. Once I turned 10 I had to start my training.

“About time we are here. Amber I would like to welcome you home” Walter tells me when the vehicle stops moving. The door on my right opens and a man in an all-black suit with black sunglasses holds his hand out to me. I look towards Walter unsure. “It’s fine he’s a guard. Nothing will happen to you” Walter reassures me. I nod my head and take his hand.

“Welcome my Queen. I’ll be your bodyguard while you are here. You can call me Lennon” Lennon tells me once I step out of the weird-looking vehicle. “Miss. Amber, I’ll see you tomorrow. Lennon will bring you to your room” Walter tells me before he walks ahead leaving me with Lennon.

“I’ll bring you to your room,” Lennon repeats to me. I look at the mansion for the first time and I freeze up. I’m staying here? I’ve never seen anything so beautiful and big in my life. All I know are concrete walls even when I was a child we were surrounded by concrete walls even while outside. Lennon begins to walk and I quickly follow behind. I don’t want to get punished for not following and for being stuck in my head. When I was in my young teens I got punished a lot for daydreaming and not paying attention. Now I make sure I catch myself when that happens.

“Tomorrow I’ll give you a tour around the place. Show you where you can go and explain the rules. But for tonight I’ll bring you straight to your room” Lennon explains to me as we walk towards a grand staircase that breaks off into two separate stairs. One going to the right and the other going to the left. As we’re walking up the many steps to the door of the mansion. Lennon leads me to a large flight of stairs. We aren’t even halfway up and I’m out of breath while he seems to be breathing just fine. Not even breaking a sweat.

“Your room will be on the right side,” Lennon tells me as we go to the right staircase. We walk up the staircase and down a long hallway. “This hallway houses all the guests. At the moment you are the only guest so you’ll be the only one staying here” Lennon explains to me.

This will be a huge weird different change. I’m used to being in an open-cell in a hallway full of girls. Going from that to having my private room in just a couple of hours is going to be a huge change.

“Here’s your room Miss,” Lennon tells me as he opens a door. I step into the room and freeze. Is this my room? This is all to myself? The room color scheme is light gray and white The walls are white the wall with the bed resting against it is gray. the flooring is a beautiful gray hardwood floor. The bed has a white comforter with a gray throw blanket and many gray pillows. On the wall opposite where I’m standing is a large window with a glass door that opens up to a balcony. There are three smaller windows above the large window with gray framing. On the wall opposite of the bed is a fireplace with two gray comfy chairs and a tv above the fireplace. On the right side of the fireplace, there’s a hallway. I’ll have to explore that later.

“Dinner will be delivered to your room shortly. In the closet, there are clothes for all types of occasions for you and the bathroom has everything a female would need. If you need me at all on your nightstand there’s a remote to contact me. If you don’t need me tonight then I’ll see you in the morning” Lennon tells me then exits the room and closes the door behind him.

When I know for sure he’s gone I remove myself from my spot and walk around the room. I look out the window and notice the sun is starting to set. I go over to the nightstands and turn the lamps on. I turn around and look at the hallway Lennon said there’s a closet and a bathroom so they must be down there. I can’t believe I have my bathroom and closet and from the sounds of it, I can wear whatever I want to.

Before I could walk down the hallway a knock was heard at the door. I turn away from the hallway and head towards the door. Once I reach it I open it to replace an older lady in a modest maid uniform. “Good evening Miss I am here to bring you dinner,” she tells me I nod my head not sure what to do “may I come in and set your dinner up?” she asks I nod my head again and move out of the way.

This is weird. She walks into the room she sets the tray on the nightstand. She goes over to the couch and leans down then pulls out a folded-looking table. She unfolds it and puts the table in front of the couch. She grabs the tray of food and puts it on the table. “Tonight you’ll be having pan-seared chicken breast with mashed potatoes and ice tea. Here’s a remote Disney plus is the only thing that’s set on this tv. Enjoy” she tells me and leaves.

I sit on the couch and try to get comfy. I grab the remote and turn the tv on like she said Disney Plus pops up. I don’t even know what this is. After the loading screen is gone the first thing that catches my eye is Maleficent. I click on that why not try it. Once the movie starts I grab a knife and fork and cut the chicken. It smells amazing. I’ve had chicken and mashed potatoes before but I bet it’s nothing like this. I take the first bite of the chicken and a moan slips out of my mouth thankfully I’m the only one here. Who knew food could taste so good. If every meal is this good I think I’ll look forward to eating more.

Throw the movie I cried, got angry, and was happy. How dare Stefan do that to Maleficent. Take her wings like that. I put my dishware on my nightstand I fold up the table and before I know it I’m fast asleep.
