Icey's mate by anaya phoenix (free reads .TXT) 📖

stood. “Sir” he said nodding his head, my father gave a nod back, how heartwarming. “How goes the clan” Thomas asked looking at his surroundings. “It is fine this summer we bred 2 pups” my father said with pride. “Excellent” Thomas said “and finance wise?”
“Everyone is well looked after, we do not really splurge on our hearts desires” my father explained. “Aah ok” Thomas said, his eyes flicked to me and I felt the familiar warmness on my hand. I looked down to see my hand glowing through the ace bandage, I tried to conceal it but by then it was too late because I heard my father’s sharp gasp.
“What’s your hand doing Anna?” my father asked quietly looking at me. I was going to lie but quickly dismissed it. “It’s glowing” I said in a miniscule voice. “Take off the bandage”
“No”
“No?”
“I won’t”
“You won’t?”
“Father I-“
“TAKE OFF THE BANDAGE”
“father-“
“What’s going on out here” my mother asked, my father put up his finger silencing her. He grabbed my hand and ripped the bandage off my hand. He gasped then fell on his knees. I closed my eyes. “Who has marked you” he asked quietly. “No one” I whispered, he squeezed my hand “who has MARKED YOU!?!” he said blowing whispers of freezing cold air out of his nose. “I have” I looked at Thomas and mouthed “not smart”. My father dropped my hand as if it disgusted him and walked into the house. My mother looked at me with anger and what looked to be… pity? She then followed my father. I turned and looked at the now Cheshire cat grinning Thomas. “You made it glow didn’t you?” I asked him in a whisper. “I have no idea what you’re talking about” he said innocently. That’s it. I changed and looked down at him, he still had that grin then he changed, he had a good foot taller than me but I didn’t care. I kicked his feet from under him and put my paw on his chest. “You marked me without my consent then show it off to my father” I say in a feminine gravelly voice. “For that you pay. I kicked him further away and then spit ice balls at him each one hitting the target, he ran toward me but I punched him in the gut making him double over. With my tail I reached his and was about to toss him to Timbuktu until the baritone voice Sid “stop” I pulled my tail away and changed. My father’s arms encircled me and hid me from Thomas “go change” I ran upstairs and changed into my night gown, too much clothes wasted, and went downstairs. My father had his back to me but I saw Thomas grinning and that was all I needed. I charged outside and practically sprinted toward him, he thought I was giving him a hug. Silly boy. I sped faster and kicked my foot into his side. I did a 360 and turned to see him on his side in pain, “I don’t do hugs” I said then turned to my now grinning father. I hugged him and said “sorry father. I let him kiss my forehead “you did wonderful now shoo” he said gently pushing my towards the house. I walked upstairs and grinned, I pleased my father and myself at the same time, see I’m working on it.
I awoke to the smell of cinnamon toast, my favorite breakfast food. I did my morning routine in a record of 30 minutes, I am amazing, and I walked downstairs and almost choked on air. Thomas was there dousing syrup on his French toast. My father stood making breakfast smiling “morning icey” he said. I hated my nick name only because when I was two I blew a two foot wide icefall at Jeff, in my defense he took my Barbie, “ morning dad” I said sitting down as far away from Thomas as possible. “Good morning icey” Thomas said snickering. I turned my foot into a claw and kicked him. His eyes turned all buggy and wide and it was my time to snicker. “Choke?” I asked innocently. “You wish” he said straining his voice. I ate quickly while the guys poured in each of them sitting on my side, watching Thomas. I finished and walked to the car, the guys came soon and my eyes practically popped out when Thomas came out with his book bag. “Your dad said I could join” he said noting my look. I got in the car and though Thomas tried to start a conversation it wasn’t happening. We got to the school and immediately after we got out girls swarmed around Thomas. I let out a low growl and he must have heard it because he sent a mischievous grin my way. “Hi I’m Thomas” he said to no other than, ladies and gentleman brace yourself, vanes Simons. “I’m vanes, are you new here” she said flinging her ruby hair over her shoulder (no she is not a breedance just an all nat- u- ral red head). “Yes I am” he said giving her a heartbreaking smile. I walked away before I threw up. I look back once and see her pecking his cheek. He must have seen me looking because he, deliberately mind you, turned his head around and kissed her. Full on the lips in front of everybody felt blood go into my cheeks, fine two can play at this game, I walked into chemistry and sat in the back. Everybody filed in looking happy then Thomas walked in which seemed to make everybody else happier. He smiled then walked straight towards me, I put my bag on my chair but he just knocked it down. “Hello icey”.
“You call me that again I will punch you into the chalk board” I said as if it’s the normal thing to sit. he was quiet the rest of the class, so was I. he probably thought I was the jealous love struck girl who was now showing him that she liked him and wanted to take things to the next level only if he wanted to… HA! I don’t get jealous, I get even.
Before I go to lunch I think it’s fair to tell you how we’re seated. During fall and winter the landvin clan sits next to the window, and during spring and summer it’s the breedance clan that sits in the window. The humans are always in the middle. I sit down and bite into beef jerky, Thomas plops down next to me with a dooly grin on his face, “ hi your Anna right?” pep monster asked plopping on the other side of me. She gasped and touched my hair, “is this your real color?” Before I get to what happens next let me explain that touch to dragons are very very sacred. Back to the story, all eyes were on me even from the humans and the breedance clan. “Yes” I said gritting my teeth together. She put both hands on my head. “My goodness it’s beautiful” I lost it. “Get your hands OFF OF ME/” I screamed I turned to Thomas “I will destroy you for this” I said in dragon talk. I stormed out into the football field. I sat down and looked at the sky. It was a shade of grey that meant snow. Oh joy. “What was that about” Jeff asked. “You saw she touched my hair, none of us liked to be touched, but my hair?!” he was quiet “we have to go in for class” he said cautiously. I got up and walked into the cafeteria “what’s wrong” Kyle asked. “Nothing I said as I breezed past him. I walked to the table and sat at the head. Thomas looked at me then kissed Vanessa. Evil child. I got up and screeched the chair. I grabbed the first human boy that looked at me and wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. He kissed me back but before he got to enjoy it I pulled back and smiled. I went to the table where everybody stared at me. Thomas’s face was red and I could tell he was clenching his fist. Someone grabbed my arm “a word Anna” Kyle said. He took me outdoes in the field. “What the hell was that” he asked. “That was me kissing a boy” I said slowly. “I saw that but,” he calmed down “why?” he asked calmly. “I don’t know how to kiss, so the boy was like my practice dummy” I said frowning. Show time. I cried “please don’t be mad I, I, I didn’t want to disappoint you” I said lowering my head. He hugged me “ nothing you could do would disappoint me” I looked up and sniffled “ really?” he looked down at me those green eyes piecing me “ really” he kissed me and everyone in my body turned to jell. Heat hit every apart of me and I wanted more. I wrapped m arms around his neck and he wrapped his around my waist, the kiss (if possible) went deeper and hotter I broke apart and put my hand on my forehead. “Wow” he said breathlessly. I nodded and headed for class, “we’re you going?” he said, I turned to face him while still walking “if I’m late my father won’t let me talk to you until Saturday” I said winking. I walked away with a sashay in my hips. Yep I am definitely working on it.
Next was gym and I was so grateful for packing shorts, I needed the air. I walked out of the girl’s locker room only to bump into an angry Thomas. “What the hell was that” he whispered angrily. “That was me getting even” said passing him. He grabbed my bandaged hand “I don’t want you kissing anyone”. I looked at his hand and lost my already diminished temper. I grabbed his arm and flicked him to the other side of the gym, he got up “that’s it” I heard him say. Everybody looked at us. He walked toward me and I did the same meeting him halfway. We got to the center and stared at each other. I kicked his feet from under gym but he blocked it and kneed me in the gut sending me to the other side of the gym. I got up and walked to where he stood and karate kicked him in the stomach, I followed him as he flew a few feet away still lying in pain. I grabbed his hair “you listen to me well heir” I said the last word with disgust “I will kiss, sleep with or mate with anyone my parents choose but you” I said biting his shoulder when he tried to push me away “I will never mate with you” I let his head drop, I went to the locker and got my book bag rebadged my hand and left. That’ll teach him. I walked into algebra happy and ecstatic, finally a break, I sat down took out my notebook and smiled. Until he walked in, headed my way blowing whispers of cold air out his nose. I looked down but he still came over, he grabbed my hand and held it up, “ you will NOT be mating, kissing or sleeping with ANYONE, you will be mated with ME” I looked at him and whispered “ you do know if we weren’t in here I would kick your ass” I grabbed my hand back “ I am mating with Kyle breedance on Saturday evening whether you like it or not” I turned around to face the front of the class he out his hand on my leg. I spat out the coldest tiniest ice ball I could and out it down his shirt, although the cold doesn’t bother
