His Heart And Soul
Chapter 2
(Tobias)
"You have to come with us sire, it won't be the same if you don't." That's how Zeke managed to convince me to go to the human auction today and I'm already regretting my decision. The council won't let me get rid of human pets so for now I have to watch as so many innocent humans are sold for profit. It hurts my heart and makes me hope none are mistreated or something equally as nasty. It's the middle of the auction when I see an argument.
"She's my mate!" One of the men snarls while the other stands there unfazed.
"I asked if anyone was her mate and you did not speak out therefore she was anyone's." The second man says and I sigh. A kings work is never done. I rise from my chair to straighten out the argument.
"Reimburse the man and give this man his mate." The auctioneer nods and does as I ask, leaving me free to return to my seat.
"Next lot. Number 15. Beatrice Prior age 17, 5ft 2in, long golden blonde hair, unruined, pure, innocent, would make a good pet or companion. Now as Is the law I have too ask, is anyone this little sweethearts mate?" A scent hits my nose and Zeke looks at me strangely before my head snaps up. My soulmate is so beautiful. Like a glowing adorable little angel. Her long curly blonde hair reaches her lower back and her bright blue eyes shimmer in the light. I shoot up and walk towards my mate as she cowers from me. She should never be scared or upset or frightened of me. I speak with the auctioneer before leaning down and kissing my mates little forehead gently. She curls up and tries to move away from me. I stop her and stroke my hand over her hair to comfort her.
"Look after her." The man says and I nod my head picking my mate up cuddling her close to my chest. I start carrying her away and smile gently at her.
"My heart, my soulmate. For centuries I have searched for you and now I have you I will never let you go." I whisper in her ear and kiss the top of her head gently. I open the car door and sit her down carefully before climbing in and closing the door behind me. The others are returning to the castle as well so I don't need to worry about them.
"Beautiful, so beautiful." I whisper and caress her cheeks with my fingers.
"My adorable little angel." I say and heat rushes to her cheeks causing me to laugh and kiss her temple.
"I'm going to look after you my adorable little angel, that I promise you." I promise her and trail my hand down her arm and down her tummy until I rest my hand on her thigh, but I feel a lump. What is that? I grab it and find a little pink stuffed bunny with a sparkly pink bow on its neck. A smile erupts onto my face and I pass the little thing to my angel.
"My adorable little angel." I whisper and watch her as she plays with her bunny rabbit, making it dance.

I left my little angel sitting in the foyer on one of the comfy couches while I deal with disciplinary action having to be put on a pet. He was caught trying to violate Uriah, Zeke's younger brothers, mate.
"Lock him up for three days and make sure Marlene is well cared for in the infirmary." I instruct and pat Uriah's should, I know he's trying not to murder the boy.
"Sire, your mate, I went to get her for you, but she's gone." Peter says and I let out a loud snarl.
"Where is she?! Someone must have seen her!" I snarl and then her beautiful scent wafts into my nose. I look up and steal her from Zeke's arms.
"Where did you find her Zeke?" I ask and she buries her face into my neck crying gently.
"Eric must've thought she was your new pet instead of your mate." Zeke explains and I stroke her back, feeling warm wet liquid on it. She yelps and I sniff, smelling her sweet blood. I'm going to kill him.
"Thank you Zeke." I say and he smiles at his new queen. My angel whimpers and curls up into me tighter.
"I had Shauna quickly fixed the bunny up for this little sweetie." He produces her bunny and she eagerly reaches for her bunny. She cuddles her bunny and I kiss her forehead gently.
"Lets fix you up my adorable little angel." I say and touch her lashed back gently. The poor little thing.
When I've fixed her back I look at her disheveled hair and grab the hairbrush I had Christina go and get. Over the last few hours Christina has got everything I'm going to need to look after my little angel. I brush her hair gently and she lets out a quiet mewl.
"I love you so much my adorable little angel." She yawns and kisses my cheek gently. I love that she's become more comfortable with me over the last few hours.
"My adorable little angel, you've no idea how happy you make me." I whisper in her ear and she yawns again causing me to smile at her again. I lay her down and pull the covers over her, kissing her forehead gently. I go to leave and but she clutches her bunny while grabbing my arm.
"Stay." She pleads and I settle on the bed, beside her on top of the covers. I lay a pillow on my lap and pull her to lay on the pillow, kissing her forehead again.
"Shh, got to sleep my little angel." I whisper in her ear gently and she closes her eyes, falling asleep. I watch as she falls into a dream world, stirring and moving about. There's a gentle knock on my door and I call so quietly for the person to come in. It's Zeke.
"Your mother and father are on their way here. Should be with us by tomorrow." Damn, my mom and dad, I can't believe this. It's too early.
