Mina's Vampire Mate

by Jessica Samuels

  Neo sat on one side and Mina sat on the other. Neo looked around and relaxed since she wasn’t there. She didn’t like bars anyway.

  Mina looked at the menu. It had a lot of choices to choose from. Even the usual bar stuff mixed with blood - all kinds of blood on it … lion, cheetah, wolf, regular blood types. Blood mixed with stuff since some vampires preferred mixed.

  There were good and bad ones. None are inherently evil. Mina is a good witch preferring her powers over the light. Mina saw there was a drink mixed with her favorite alcohol. It was nice and she couldn’t wait to have it. And there was even one with an energy drink, blood and alcohol. She loved that better. And she found the perfect thing for her: a blood sampler so she could try to see which blood type she wanted.

  “Do you have an idea of what you want?” Neo asked her.

  “The blood sampler and the energy drink, blood and alcohol combo on the side,” she said.

  He smiled, “Good choice.”

  “I can see what I like for my vampire side. And you?” she asked.

  “The blood and beer with the blood burger, extra rare,” he said.

  The waitress came up to the table and smiled once she saw who it was.

  “Mina and Neo, you make a cute couple. Neo, you finally found a keeper. I am Dannika your waitress and I will definitely enjoy taking care of both your needs.” She said winking to them both.

  “I’ll get the Blood Fever and sampler,” said Mina.

  Her eyes lit up, “Giving into your vampire side huh?”

  Mina smiled, “Yes, and embracing it since the last dude was a witch who didn’t even like my vampire side. He thought the witch one was better and forbade me from having anything to do with them including my dad.”

  “That is sad and I am glad you are done with him.” She wrote down Mina’s order and looked at Neo.

  “Blood burger extra rare, and blood beer type A+,” he said.

  “Got it, coming right up. I can’t wait to tell my boss I get to serve you guys,” she said. She took the menus and went to get their order.

  “Wow...I didn’t know I was so popular she knew me like I was some celebrity,” Mina said.

  “Your dad is a vampire leader and it is good she noticed you and loved the fact that you embraced that side. Not many people are comfortable with their darker side,” he said.

  “That is good,” she said.

  “It is and this place is popular with the ones under him so there are a lot of vampires watching over you,” he said.

  This was the first time he actually looked like he relaxed around her. He sat back and looked at her with desire and she smiled. She felt the same way, too. It would be a fun date.

  “So tell me a little about yourself?” she asked him.

  “I was born a full vampire and I even went to Luxor Academy to become a skilled full vampire. I have been to many places all over. I was trained as a Protector after I left the academy when the leader found me. After that, I trained with them and that is when they told me about you,” he said.

  “Wow and I never went to Luxor academy at all. I was trained by the coven at the time. And for the longest time denied my vampire side. Until I met my ex and he forbid me from even exploring my vampire side I realized how dumb it was to deny it and hide my fangs. I couldn’t even mention blood to him since he thought being a witch was better. It isn’t. Vampires are since it is pretty amazing how much stronger I am now,” she said.

  “Well, he was wrong on all accounts since you are the prettiest girl I have ever seen. If you love someone you never treat them the way he did you,” he said.

  And he took her hand and kissed it. It made her heart beat even faster. He was everything she wanted in a relationship and a part of her, too. She could tell he was the right one for her since they shared a connection she had never felt before. She enjoyed the feeling a lot. And she wanted nothing more than to be his forever.

  The waitress served them their drinks. Mina took a sip of hers; it was good. She loved the fact that it energized her and had good alcohol content. It warmed her up and relaxed her. She loved the smell since it reminded her of a sports bar. She used to go to witch bars all the time but her ex didn’t like it. She looked across at Neo and smiled since he was all hers and he wasn’t the type to be unfaithful and lie. She was hopeful for the future. She was loving her drink since it was one of the best tasting energy drinks with a zing, too. It’s like Kool-Aid and it’s even red, a dark red. She kept drinking it and finished it.

  Neo laughed, “Enjoying it that much, huh? I can tell you will love your vampire side, too.”

  She laughed, “It’s one of the best tasting drinks out there and we haven’t even gotten the samples yet.”

  And finally, the food arrived.

  Neo’s food was placed in front of him, and he picked up the burger and took a big bite. His eyes rolled back in his head. It was that good, “This is one of the best burgers I have tasted in a while. I loved getting them here since they come out perfect.”

  Mina’s blood sample was put in front of her. And they even came in nice martini glasses with labels of the blood types at the bottom. It was a nice way to display it. She knew it would be fun to try since she can finally experience different blood types. She picked up type A first and once she tasted it she was surprised about how good it was, so she drank the whole thing. And she did have three more to go. Next was type B - it actually tasted like cotton candy and popcorn. She drank the entire glass. It was so good. Next was type AB, and she took a sip. It tasted like Kool-Aid cotton candy. Lastly was type O and it was spicier than the rest. A lot of pepper, and she didn’t care for it at all. The blood was actually filling and it could actually double up as a full meal. Neo was eating his burger like it was the best thing ever and finished it. He looked at her glasses, all empty except one.

  “Type O not your favorite huh?” he asked.

  She shook her head, “Nope, definitely not my thing.”

  “I figured most vampires prefer the others since it has a high spice level,” he said.

  She smiled, “Some have a spice palate and some don’t. This is the first time I can experiment to see what I like for my preference. You are the first vampire that has actually shown me my potential.”

  “They should show you since your dad is one of the leaders and I would think they’d want to help you out.” He said.

  “Nope, and you are the first vampire I will be with,” She said.

  She sighed. She didn’t want to remember anymore and he was still out there waiting. He was a Tracker so she doubted he would stop. She needed a break since all she had lately was bad luck. Shitty luck at that. Still.

  Neo looked at her and he could tell how badly her ex messed her up.

  “You never have to worry since we will keep you safe,” he said.

  “I hope so and when the time comes I will take care of him,” she said.

  She will definitely get him back for all the times he treated her badly.

  “It will be okay. And when he is gone for good you will be able to fully heal and be happy with me. So for now put it out of your mind and enjoy the fact that you have me by your side and I am not going anywhere. We can do anything together. And tomorrow we can pack and head there,” he said.

  “Good and I am sure there are other things we can do to take our minds off things.” She said suggestively. He smiled at her. The drink she had was refilled and she finished the last of it. So the alcohol was giving her the courage she needed. She was ready to give Neo everything she had. Her life would finally be looking up as soon as her ex was stopped. She couldn’t wait to get her hands on him. She needed it like he did. It was something she needed to be relaxed.

  “Want to get the check now?” she asked rubbing his leg.

  He nodded, “Exactly what I was thinking.”

  The waitress came over at that time.

  “Everyone all set?” she asked.

  “We are and we need the check.” he
said.

  She smiled, “Coming right up.”

  She left to get it.

  And Neo smiled, “Are you sure?”

  Mina smiled, “Yes, and I haven’t wanted someone as much as I had you. Plus, we both need it and I want to be with you forever.”

  He smiled, “Good, I want to be with you and no other.”

  The waitress handed him the check, he put his card from his wallet in the holder and handed it back. She left and he took Mina’s hand in his.

  “I will show you I will be so good that you’ll never want anyone else ever. I will love pleasing you and I hope you don’t mind biting?”

  She smiled, “I love the sound of it and I would love being bitten by you.”

  The waitress gave him back the folder. He took his card out, and left a good tip - 20 percent. He signed it and they got up and left to go to his car.

  Neo's heart was racing as he made his way back to his place with Mina. He couldn’t believe she was all his. And also that he could make love to her like he has been wanting to for a while. She was all he could think about. And now she was his. He couldn’t wait to see every inch of her body naked. His groin swelled and he was definitely ready to take her. They pulled up to his house and he turned off the car and unbuckled his seatbelt. They walked hand and hand to his place. And Neo opened the door and they practically ran to the bedroom. They couldn’t keep their hands off each other.

  She kissed him and he tasted so good she didn’t want him to stop. She wanted him to take her. And she didn’t mind him biting either. Since during the kissing he trailed kisses down her and bit her. She loved the feeling since he made it feel so good. Their clothes came off, and she enjoyed every minute of it. He was perfect for her in every way. They fit together like they were made for each other and they both came together. Since he knew how to please her and make her feel so good, and better than anyone she had ever experienced before. He made her come so hard she was seeing stars and didn’t want to move afterward. It was definitely special to her since their bodies are in sync together. They were definitely each other’s and the bond between them was way stronger. It was so passionate and lovely to her that she will never think of it the same way again.

  He ex made it seem like a chore and that if she didn’t perform as well as he thought then he was moody. Not like her and Neo. Neo showed her what it was really supposed to be like and it felt so good she didn’t and couldn’t move afterward. He gave her a release like no one else had. They just laid there in each other’s arms. And Mina smiled since she felt like the luckiest girl in the world to have him. This is why it never worked with any other. He was why and she was finally happy.

  They fell asleep in each other’s arms and it was perfect for them both.

  The next day they both packed for the journey ahead. Mina got her travel bag and even got her mini book of shadows with her travel spells. She wrote down all the important ones that she needed in a book as well as some creature facts. She loved it; it was black with white cream pages and helped her in battle. It went in her bag along with a few other spell items. She was prepared for it and hoped it would be a fun experience meeting them. She wasn’t out of the woods yet and she needed to be aware.

  After packing for so many hours, they got their stuff and put it in his car.

  Neo was excited things were actually coming together. He couldn’t wait to show Mina around since he remembered the way by heart. Mina and Neo got in the car and Mina buckled up. She was definitely ready to see what happened. And after this she didn’t need to go to Nikki’s ever again. There was no point in going back after this. She was ready to step it up and be a strong Vampire Witch and embrace both sides of her. She even wondered about their blood supply. The drive there was quiet.

  Neo was lost in thought as he made his way there the drive already etched into his memory. They had a way of tracking others, but they were making a better device and they needed Mina’s help with it. Her powers made her a hot commodity. It also made her incredibly powerful to have as an ally.

  He looked over at her. She was quiet, too. And yet she looked content. He got so close to her last night he could tell he would actually be good for her. He’d do his best to show her he is hers and not going anywhere. He did want to tell her about Elise.

  Neo smiled at her, “And since I know a good deal about your relationship story and how it ended let me tell you about mine. It will take an hour to get there anyway. My story takes place in a bar. I loved going to bars since it helps after a long day. I was also recently hurting due to a shit break up. I just had gotten my heart broken since there is a girl I liked, but she turned out to be horrible. She dumped me for another vampire and she was using me till another came along. Some women use vampires and get addicted to their bites easily. I caught her with another and ended it. It didn’t last long anyway since she only wanted me for my body. I hated it.

  And I went to my usual bar to relax. I spotted a pretty waitress and she rushed to take my order. And I told her I was having a horrible day and that I was newly single. She gave me a drink and we were talking and getting along so well that I asked for her number as I was ready to leave. It was good at first and after a few dates we took it to the next level. It was good for a while - till I caught her with someone else. I broke up with her, and I was hurting. That is how I met the leader of the Protectors and why I took a chance again.”

  She smiled, “And it led us to meeting and finding each other.”

  Neo smiled, “I am happy to have finally taken a chance on someone who wants me for me and not just because of my species.”

  Mina was happy, “And I am happy to have finally found someone who won’t be abusive or push me into walls.”

  He sighed, “I will never treat you the way he did ever.”

  “Good.” She said.

  Neo was happy to have told her the story.

  Chapter 5

  It was easily the happiest Neo had ever been. Then they pulled up to the entrance to the compound. Mina would meet the leader and the head of the Protectors. He had already texted him about it ahead of time. He pulled up to the garage entrance and ran his card through it. The gate lifted up and he pulled into a spot. He turned off the ignition, unbuckled his seat belt and got out as did Mina. It looked like an ordinary garage. It even had a lot of different cars in various parking spots. As they got out their stuff, a voice said, “So this is the infamous Mina, it is nice to meet you.”

  She looked over at the voice, and it came from a pretty sexy guy. He was tall but not too tall. The guy is tan, has black hair to his shoulders, and warm brown eyes.

  He smiled at her, “I am Davik Blade, leader of the Protectors ...the Vampire Witch ones at least. I’m Neo’s boss and we have been looking for you for sometime. I spotted you while shopping at Nikki’s. And it was easy to tell you are one of us since I am mated to one who was with me at the time,” he said.

  She smiled, “Nice to meet you and I am glad Neo rescued me when he did.”

  Neo smiled, “Thanks, sir.”

  “And I will definitely be happy to show you around here. This community is small and we are even working with others to help them stand against evil. There is even talk of forces multiplying at a very fast rate. We need all the help we can get. And each couple is given an apartment when they stay here,” he said.

  Mina had her bag with her and she walked toward him to follow him. Neo was beside her, too. And he had his bag slung over his shoulder. They followed Davik. And once they got out of the garage it led to a hallway with people coming to and from the place.

  “We are on the first floor. And it has a cafeteria, library, gym, ritual room, various apartments for couples and a lab room. There is even a control room and records room,” he said.

  She took all this in and it was unbelievable. She couldn’t believe how fast life had changed.

  “We can drop off your stuff and then you can meet my scientist since he needs your help,” he said.


  They were led to the place where they were staying and the place itself was huge. All stores and there were even little shops, too. It was it’s own little community. Mina loved the sites and a lot of people looked at her curiously. They made it to the apartments and Davik took out two key cards and gave them to Neo and Mina.

  “These are how you access it and it is really secure.”

  She smiled, “Good it means no one will be able to just walk in.”

  Davik smiled, “Nope, and you can’t be taken since it’s a secret location. Trackers won’t be able to find you either. No crazy ex worries here. I heard about a Tracker who did that to you. I’m sorry we didn’t get you sooner. They are obsessed with their marks and they will kill you and take your essence. It’s why they are so dangerous,” he said.

  Mina smiled, “Then I am happy to feel safe for once.”

  And she opened the door to her place with the keycard. The door opened and it opened into a living room. It was nice and inviting. All blue and white ceiling. It had an ocean theme to it.

  Davik smiled, “We treat you special since you are and it comes with a bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, even an extra room for guests. The master bedroom has it’s own nice bathroom. And it is equipped with the latest stuff, even a washer and dryer. Staying here is free. And the fridge is stocked with food and there is another one with blood.”

  She put down her stuff and the sea theme was throughout the place, too. Blues and whites. She went to the bedroom and it had a huge ass bed and a big screen TV. She even placed her laptop, charger, and her phone with the charger. Nice. Luxor even had some channels on television. And she got important notifications from her social media stuff on her phone.

  Neo smiled, “It’s pretty nice here and there is even a bar here too in order to relax so we can go there sometime since I know you love bars.”
