A/N: So glad you guys liked the first chap! :D now on to the second. Side note - When you see bold italics that's a thought that Rachel heard and bold is rachel's thoughts. Forgot to mention the in the first chap so now here we go
Santana's P.O.V
Fuck. This is my mate. I can't bite her or let her bite me. I didn't really listen when my parents told me about the mate thing but I remember they said stay calm, breath and stay in control. I know we can't claim each other until our human sides have started loving each other. Something about us ending up hating each other or something because our human sides never had that choice.
I can't remember all the details but I know us biting each other can't happen. Fuck. I quickly get to my feet and she growls and tries to move closer. I try to fight my wolf but it's like she's pushing me to the back of my mind and I have to stay in control. Fucking bitch. I growl and show my teeth. I'm ready to lunge at her and claim what's mine when I hear a loud ass whistle. Fuck! I do my best to cover my ears but it doesn't work well with no hands.
Whatever asshole is blowing this fucking whistle decides to do it for a long time. When they stop I'm going to rip their fucking head off! Finally it stops and I look around to see to see a tall old man dressed like a lumber jack. I charge at him and stands there calmly and right before get to him he blows that fucking whistle again! Damn it! I stop and back up a bit but when I hear her whimper I get pissed all over again. I will fucking tear him limb from limb!
"I suggest you relax, unless you want me to blow this again?" He says and I sigh and try to relax so I sit on the ground.
"Good. Now I won't hurt either of you, I just want to help. I need both of you to shift back into your human forms." He says and I'm glad to comply. I'm so ready to tell this fucker off. I shift back and quickly stand.
"What the fuck is your problem?!"
"Would you rather I let you two claim each other?"
"Blowing that fucking whistle was still uncalled for!"
"I have to agree. It wasn't necessary to blow it for so long." I hear from behind me. I turn around to see
"Berry?!" Oh hell no! Berry is not my fucking mate!
"Santana my ears already hurt. I'd appreciate it if you spoke in a lower tone."
"You want me to lower my fucking voice?! How the fuck aren't you screaming over this?! If you're not aware of what's going on, then let me inform you. We. Are. Fucking. Mates!"
I can't fucking believe this shit! Of all the fucking people in the world, I get stuck with Rachel fucking Berry. Unbelievable.
"Though this is a shock, I would rather handle this rationally. We...you and I, can't be mates. We probably just took the feeling in the wrong way. It must have been one of-" She says but the old dude cuts her off
"You are mates. Why don't we go inside and talk about this." I turn to him and say
"You're some creepy old dude who lives in the woods. We're two, well one hot teenage girl and another one, who are both naked. There's no way in hell I'm going in there " The man rolls his eyes
"I told you I wanted to help. Both of you could tear me limb from limb." Ugh he's got a point but I'm still not going in there.
"Look gramps, I don't need your help so I'm out." I say and turn to walk away.
"So you're aware that you could possibly die?" Die?
"What?" I say while turning back to him.
"Just come inside. I have clothes you two can put on." Ugh
"Whatever." I look at him and then at Berry and I gotta admit, she has a nice body...wait. What the hell am I saying? That had to be my wolf. She's still apart of me but she kinda has a mind of her own. The old dude looks at us and walks toward the cabin. Rachel begins to follow him so I follow her and we walk in.
Ugh this house smells like old people and wood. It's a cool little place though. It's not what I expected. It feels super homey with pictures of people, I'm guessing his wife and kids. There's some serious vintage furniture but looks super comfortable. I expected like guns to be on the wall with dead animals everywhere, but this guy oddly doesn't even look like the type.
You can tell he's fit for an old guy and has to be 6'1 or 6'2. He's almost my complexion, just a shade lighter. He has a low hair cut and his hair is really dark. He has a well groomed goatee with some areas of gray and even though it's obvious he's older he doesn't have very many wrinkles in his face.
Rachel and I stand in the living room and he walks up the stairs. I look over to Rachel and she looks at me and I roll my eyes. How the fuck did I get stuck with her? My wolf must be insane or something. I mean it's Rachel Berry
" And what's wrong with your mate being Rachel Berry?" She says and I look at her
"What?"
"Just because we're mates does not mean your wolf is insane." What the fuck? I know I didn't say that out loud
" What the fuck are you talking about?"
"You just said, and I quote, How the fuck did I get stuck with her? My wolf must be insane or something. I mean it's Rachel Berry."
"I didn't say shit."
"I heard you."
"Yeah but I didn't say that, I thought it. You can hear my thoughts?"
"I..."
"She probably can." I hear the old man say as he comes down the stairs. He hands us some clothes and then says they're his wife and daughters
"Mates can communicate telepathically just like when in wolf form you can communicate with your pack. You two can use telepathy in human and wolf form." He says while we dress
"But why can she hear my thoughts? I don't want her to know what I'm thinking." I ask as I put on the shirt. Is everyone in his family a lumber jack? I hear Rachel giggle and I look at her
" You heard that too huh?" I ask and she nods
"To answer your question, you're probably projecting them to her without knowing it. That happens."
"Who the hell are you?" I ask and he smiles at me. He goes to sit in a chair and picks up a pipe from the table next to it. He pulls out a box of matches from his pocket and lights one then lights his pipe and takes a few puffs before crossing his legs and looking at me.
"My name is Solomon. Have either of you heard of the wise one?" He asks and we nod.
"It's some myth about some dude that knows everything about werewolves." I say and roll my eyes. What the fuck does that have to do with anything?
"It's no myth." He says
"You're the wise one?" Rachel asks and he nods
" I have been around for quite some time. I know the answer to any question you may ask, as long as it is about our kind."
"So you're like old as shit right?" I ask
"Santana that is not appropriate. I apologize for that Solomon." Rachel says and I roll my eyes. He smiles at her and nods.
"Anyway, what's this shit about me dying?" I ask.
"Take a seat." He says and Rachel and I sit on a couch and it is as comfortable as it looks.
"Death is a possibility. It won't necessarily happen."
"Well why would it happen at all?" Rachel asks
"I have seen few instances when two mates, human sides, do not like each other. Each case has ended differently."
"What happened?" I ask. He takes a puff of his pipe and then says
"Well in all of the cases the two people refused to even try to date or anything. In one case one person moved and both wolves suffered. Their wolves eventually died and if your wolf die, you die as well. In another case the people killed each other, in wolf form of course. Since their human sides didn't connect, when they claimed each other, the love their wolves had quickly turned to hate. Whenever they shifted their wolves set out to find them. To kill them."
"Why?" Rachel asks
"Because the wolf didn't have it's mate fully and felt cheated. They eventually killed each other."
"Okay so where's the part about not dying?" I ask
"That is the most simple part. You and Rachel's human sides connect. Your wolf chooses your mate for a reason. There is no way they would have chosen each other if their human sides weren't compatible."
"So basically date her or die?" I ask and he nods
"You can start slow, become friends and then take it from there."
"But we're both in relationships." Rachel says
"Those mean nothing compared to what have or will have. It's painfully obvious you two aren't fond of each other. You will have to get over that and attempt to be together."
"Do you realize how fucking stupid this is? We don't want each other." I say
"Doesn't matter. Your wolf needs it's mate to survive. Even lone wolves have a mate." He says and I sigh. This is bullshit.
"I can do friends, if you're willing." Rachel says
"What choice do I have?" I say and she nods
"How do I keep her out of my head?"
"Well the reason she could even do it without you knowing is because you tow made eye contact. You can control it, just like if you were in your wolf form." He says and I nod and try it out.
"Can you hear me?" I think. This time trying to be sure she can't hear me. She doesn't respond so I guess it worked. I do it again this time trying to let her hear and she responds
"Yes." I hear her say in my head
"Alright, I got this. So is there anything else or can I go?" I ask
"No you can go but I just want to warn you. Your relationship will get very serious, very quickly so your friendship won't last very long. You will fall in love quickly and very deep and also at some point you will connect emotionally."
"What do you mean?" Rachel says
"You'll be able to feel each others emotions, without it effecting your own. Also physical intimacy will be... more intense. You'll understand when you get there." Is he talking about sex? Ew
"Yeah that's all I can handle for one day. Bye." I say and walk to the door.
"If you two have anymore questions, feel free to come back anytime."
"Thank you. Goodbye Solomon." Rachel says. I walk out the door with Rachel following me. I turn around and look at her.
"So..."
"See you at school." She says and starts to walk away
"Wait." I say and follow her. She doesn't stop walking but she looks at me
"Shouldn't we like exchange numbers or something?"
"If we need to get in touch we can just can simply speak telepathically."
"Yeah but normal people use a phone."
"I'll give it to you later."
"Alright. So...what are you doing tomorrow?"
"I have something planned with my father."
"Oh."
"But I'm free Sunday. You can come to my house if you want?" She says and I nod
"Yeah, cool, So I guess I'll talk to you later?" I say and she nods. I turn in the other direction and walk to my stuff
When I get home to go straight to my room to lie down and think. I have to dump Q. I don't think she'll take it very hard but still, I don't wanna do it. I have to tell her I found my mate. Maybe I'll do that after I figure this out with Rachel. She's still with Finnocence so why not? That's totally gross though. What if they're in love? What am I supposed to do if she's in love with someone else? I see i'll have to visit Solomon again. I stare at my ceiling and sigh and the next thing I did even surprised me.
"Rachel?" I call out in my mind
"Yes?" I hear her respond
"You busy?"
"No. Just thinking."
"Penny for your thoughts?"
"Just thinking about this situation. It was very unexpected."
"Hell yeah it was but it could've been worse. At least your mate is hot."
"You're right, it could have been worse. It could have been David Karofsky."
"Or jew fro of f- uh nevermind."
"What? Say it."
"Finn. Why are you dating that idiot anyway? You could do so much better. Anyone could do better than him."
"He's my first love and first real relationship."
"So? He's an idiot."
" Don't insult him."
" So if you're in love with him, how can anything happen with us?"
"I'm not sure."
"So did he take your virginity or are you still a virgin?"
"No and no."
"What? I didn't expect that. So who has your V card?"
"Brittany."
"As in Brittany Pierce?
"Yes."
" She never told me that. How long have you two known each other?"
"Since birth really. Her dad was my dad's beta."
"I didn't even know she was a fucking wolf!" I feel so left out
Rachel and I kept talking and getting to know each other, well into the next morning and she's actually a pretty cool chick. She loves scary movies even though they scare the shit out of her. She loves old tv shows and her favorite color is purple. When she was little she loved piglet from Winnie the Pooh. She liked it so much that piglet became her nickname until she was 13. We actually fell asleep talking and it was kinda nice, I guess. It was easy to be open with her and I don't know why but it was alright.
A/N: Hope that was good. So let me know!
