STING's POV

Sigh. Another year of Mating Season.

Last year I didn't get lucky and had none of the dream and emblem. But I have a feeling that this year would be the perfect time for me to have a mate–hopefully. Maybe I should sleep immediately to rest for tomorrow. Tomorrow we have to go and look around Magnolia. Magnolia is where we are living at here in Fiore. Maybe I can find my mate there... if I will have a dream and an emblem tonight.

A blue rose ornament fell as I slowly licked my way down her curvaceous body and traced her emblem on her left waist using my tongue. But I can't care about it now.

A beautiful sound was made by her as I continued licking and kissing her stomach and as well as her emblem. I felt dainty hands traveled from my shoulders to my hair, massaging it.

"Sting-sama..."

My eyes fluttered open and immediately saw my personal bodyguard and best friend, Lector. He has maroon hair and wears a white shirt along with his usual blue vest and pants. Lector has been living here ever since he was born. His mother was one of the maids who worked for our family in such a long time and my father's personal maid. But one day, she along with the personal maids of Uncle Igneel and Uncle Silver suddenly vanished. Nobody knows where but, we tried everything yet nothing was found, nor a single trace.

My mind instantly flashed back to the dream I just had.

Wait... is that the kind of dream Gramps is talking about?

I immediately sat up at the realization and faced Lector.

"Good morning, Sting-kun!" Lector greeted and I smiled, completely forgetting about the dream.

"Good Morning, Lector." I greeted back. But Lector looked at me with wide eyes.

"What?" I asked and he pointed something in my arm or shoulder.

"Sting-kun, what is that on your left shoulder?" he asked and I quickly checked my left arm, my lower arm first, and then my upper arm.

"Where?" I asked and my eyes widened when I saw it.

A... mark on my left shoulder? Wait... this isn't just a mark...

"It's an emblem" I whispered, shocked. It looks exactly like the one I dreamed last night.

"But... Sting-kun Master showed me what an emblem looks like. It looks like a ball of fire or something." he said and my eyes fell on my emblem.

"Maybe me and my mate are just unique" I said and grinned at Lector before taking a bath.

Once I was finished taking a bath and dressing the clothes Lector gave me as usual, I went downstairs together with Lector to eat breakfast. The clothes I was given to wear are looked normal. Not like the clothes we're supposed to always wear outside the palace. I just wore a simple white T-shirt with blue on it's edges and jeans together with a pair of black leather shoes.

When I was in the Living Room, I immediately saw Gray comfortably laying down the couch with his eyes closed. And as usual, without his shirt on. Gray has this weird stripping habit that he can't figure out where he had stripped his clothes leaving him in nothing sometimes.

I passed by the Living Room and went to the Dining Room to see if everyone have woken up already. Lector was with his two other friends; Happy and Carla who are the personal maids of Uncle Igneel and Uncle Silver before. But are now entrusted to Natsu and Wendy.

"Oi Sting what's that on your shoulder?" I heard Natsu asked when I entered the Dining Room. I looked over to my left shoulder and saw that the emblem can be seen even if the shirt I'm wearing has sleeves.

"Grandfather... is that an emblem?" Wendy asked while pointing at my shoulder.

I turned to Gramps and saw him with wide eyes.

"What's wrong, Gramps?" I asked and his eyes turned normal again before looking at me.

"It's just that... your emblem also identifies where you can find your mate or where he or she lives. The Fairy Tail emblem means you're mate is in Magnolia. But that..." he paused and pointed at my emblem. "son, is a Sabertooth emblem. I don't know where exactly Sabers are but all I can say is... it is far away from Magnolia." he said. My eyebrows furrowed and I frowned.

"So does that means I have to find her tonight? Because I don't really like the idea of a werewolf stealing my girl." I said and Gramps smiled.

"Sure you can. But after the sun has set." he said and I grinned.

I felt an arm placed on my shoulders and I turned to see Laxus smirking at me. "What have you seen in your dream, brother? Don't say you saw..." he whispered and I felt my cheeks heat up.

"Well... I heard her voice..." I said nervously. I heard all of them snickering, even Gramps.

"Only her voice? What about..." Uncle Igneel asked and I started to get what he's about to say.

"Uhh yeah?" I answered. More like asked.

"What are you guys talking about?" Wendy appeared holding plates on her hands. She placed them on the table and we just snickered at her.

Hmm... I wonder if my mate even know who I am...

I got in my car and started the engine. I heard a knock on the window so I opened it.

"Are you sure you will find her alone? I can help you if you want." Laxus asked. I just smiled at him and shook my head.

"Nah I'll find her alone. If you tag along, maybe she'll fall for you instead." I said and both of us laughed.

"Ok then, take care." he said and I smiled.

"Don't worry. If I'll find her, I will bring her where she rightfully belongs." I said.

He grinned at me. "Good luck, bro" he said and slapped me playfully on my shoulder.

I drove around Magnolia, or probably outside Magnolia. I should have asked plenty of people by now about a girl with an emblem on her stomach but... it's already almost midnight and I still haven't taken my dinner yet. Although I'm not that hungry...

I stopped my car to see nothing in front of me. Only trees and a few houses. Argh where am I exactly?

I was about to turn around my car and go home when I saw a house was lit.

All of the houses where dark meaning the people there are asleep. But now, looks like a person can't sleep. I saw the door opened and a girl with white hair went out the lit house. She looked up above her, to the stars, I can only see her left side because her house is facing the moon which is in my left. I was like five meters away from her house yet I can see her beauty from here. I just stared at her and noticed something on her left part of her hair.

A blue rose ornament.

Wait... when I dreamed... an ornament like that fell... then that means...

My instincts told me to go out the car and walk towards her. But now, I'm thinking that I should bring my car in front of her and go out with style. I brought my car slowly towards her house and I can see her eyes turning to me.

After stopping the engine of the car, I immediately pulled the keys and went out the car, not breaking our eye contact. Her eyes are colored brown and that's when I noticed that her hair is light blue, not white. She's wearing a plain white tank top and a plain black mini-skirt. Her eyes furrowed looked at me like I'm some kind of a criminal. Once I'm in front of her, my mouth opened but before I can even talk, she spoke.

"Excuse me but, what can I help for you?" she asked. She has a sweet voice and I can't help but smile for joy that my mate isn't some kind of a weirdo or something.

"U-uh. How can I say this... Uhm..." I said, unsurely.

Well, this is awkward.

"Are you one of Kama's underlings that's why you're here?" she asked in a mad tone and I panicked.

"Uhh no! I-I'm just here to uh... Uhmm" I said, trying to figure out what kind of words I should say to her. I scratched the back of my head while thinking and looked down.

"To what?" she sternly asked and when I looked up at her, her eyes were stern like her voice. Gulp. Here goes nothing…

"To... check if you're the one I'm looking for..." I said and awkwardly smiled at her. Her cheeks started to glow pink and even though it's night, I can see it because of the light from the moon.

"Oh. U-Uh. What are you looking for anyway?" she asked with slight hesitation and I deep breathed before answering.

"My mate"

YUKINO's POV

First, I have woke up with some weird dream...

Second, I was totally humiliated in front of a man I thought is one of Kama's underlings...

And third, the man is telling me I'm his mate and now he's inside my house.

What more can I have this day? But wait... he said I'm his mate right? And last night, I have this weird dream

I gripped his soft blonde hair as he licked the mark on my left stomach.

"Sting-sama..." I moaned as I heard a growl coming from him.

I spotted his mark–more like emblem on his left shoulder and I gently traced it with my free hand, making him growl one more time.

"Uhh sorry to ask you but... do you have a..." I asked and pointed at my left shoulder, where I exactly saw the mark on the man in my dream is. He seemed so confused at first but when he grinned at me, my cheeks burned up.

"Oh. You mean this?" he asked and he raised up his left sleeve of his shirt. I gasped as I saw the mark exactly like the man in my dream.

"Wait, how did you know I have an emblem on my left shoulder?" he asked and I blushed when I remembered the fact that I dreamed about him and me doing... you know what.

"U-Uhhh" I stuttered, not knowing what to say. I then looked around and quickly pulled him inside my house by the arm.

The sudden touch made me feel a little jolt that run up my spine.

Once we were inside, I sighed before facing him. His eyes however, were not on mine.

A blush crept my face when I followed his gaze. I instantly covered my chest using my arms and his gaze turned to my eyes. His eyes widened and a visible blush was seen on his face as he waved his hands in front of me.

"N-no! I-I was just wondering i-if you got... you know? The emblem?" he said while stuttering and I looked at him and scanned his eyes if he's saying the truth. Once I found what I was looking for, I slowly removed my arms from my chest.

"Emblem? You mean the mark?" I asked and he nodded seriously.

"Oh. Yeah, I forgot about that. It appeared earlier when I woke up." I said while raising up my tank top until the white emblem was shown. I looked up at him and he looked at my emblem with a blush on his face.

I didn't realized it at first but when I did realized that I was showing my whole stomach, I quickly pulled down my tank top and blushed.

"Sorry, I-I didn't mean to..." I said and I bowed down to hide my blush on my cheeks.

"U-Uh no, it's ok. It's just that... I didn't expect you to show it to me." he said and I looked up only to find him scratching the back of his head with a hand and his eyes looking awkwardly at me. I smiled.

I heard a sound coming from my living room and saw that the clock already hit 1:00. I gasped knowing that it's past midnight.

"Why?" he asked. I looked back at him and gave him a 'sorry' look.

"Sorry but I have to sleep now... I need to-" I started to talk and walk towards him to push him but was cut off by him placing both his hands on my shoulders.

"Wait, just give me a minute to explain, ok?" he whispered and brought his forehead on mine. I stared blankly at him and nodded.

He grinned at me and let go of his grasped on my shoulders at the same time, pulling his forehead away from mine.

I then felt something's missing but I shrugged it off.

We sat on my couch, me facing him, sitting side wards because he's on my right.

"Hmm. Where do I begin?" he asked himself and looked at me for help.

"Well, I read about books about vampires and their mates so basically, I know all about Mating Season. What I don't understand is... why am I picked to be your mate? I don't even know you. Not that I'm complaining." I honestly said but whispered the last part, praying he didn't heard it. He held his chin with both his index finger and thumb while nodding.

"About that... gramps told me that we vampires will have to get to know our mates by seeking them and bringing them to our homes. Then, if our mates loves us, that's when we vampires have to mark them as ours and mate with them. If you know what I mean." he said and looked at me. I blushed at the thought and quickly nodded.

"Also, I think you don't recognize who I am because you're far away from where I live. It's really fate that lead me here to you." he paused and looked at me before grinning.

"By the way, my name's Prince Sting. Nice to meet you." he said and my eyes widened in shock.

Prince?
