Scarlett and Derek

Eros p.o.v.

The party was going great. My friends and I were dancing together to the music outside. I don't know what song, but it was really upbeat. Gina was dancing with Lane while Chris danced with his mate. Yeah I know it's crazy. This week he told us that Jenna was his mate. He's older than us so he's known for like the last year and a half. He wants her to feel the pull on her birthday, so he hasn't told her and wears a unmate necklace, so she doesn't feel it. I actually got the Damien's gift idea from him. When he told me what it was I knew it would be perfect for a manwhore like him.

While my friends danced with each other I danced with my friend/old crush Ian. We got along great and I wished we would go on a date, but a last he is in love with somebody else. He won't admit it to me, but I see the way he looks at him. It doesn't matter though. A crush doesn't even stand a chance against love and I'm okay with that. Though it doesn't mean I still can't tease it a little right?

"How do you like the party," he asks me.

"It's fantastic. Though I wished Diana was here. Where is she," I ask.

"She's with Damien waiting for their grand entrance."

I nod my head and continue dancing. Ian puts his hand on my hips and I put mine around his neck. We smile at each other.

"Yeah get it cous," we hear a voice. I see Ian roll his eyes and mumble "why me?" He turns around to look at the guy.

"Hey Davis," Ian says with fake enthusiasm. Oh this is Davis. Now I know why he's in a bad mood.

Ian comes from two rival families the Davidson's and the Jacobson's. They hated each other to the core and the reason for it nobody knows. Well anyways it turned out that Romero Davidson and Julia Jacobson were mates. They got married against their families approval and had Ian and his two older sisters. Now both of Ian's families try to compete for him and his sisters loyalty or something. Ian says it gets tiring especially with his two cousins Jace and Davis fighting for his attention.

"How you've been Ian," Davis ask.

"Great. Now what do you want," Ian asks kind of harshly.

Davis chuckles. "I just want to spend some quality time with my favorite cousin. Who's this by the way? A new boyfriend? He's hot as hell."

"Davis could you leave? Because if you come over then Jace will want t--," he gets cut off by somebody saying, "Ian what a surprise." I look over and see another guy walking towards us. Ian covers his face and shakes his head.

"Hey Jace," Ian grumbles as Jace hugs him.

"Hey Ian," Jace greets happily. Then he turns to Davis. "Hey Jacob," he says with a smirk knowing he hates being called by his first name.

"Hey David," Davis says with his own smirk knowing it also bugs Jace being called by his first name. Jace glares daggers at Davis and Davis does the same. These two really don't seem to get along. They're like polar opposites. Even their appearance is completely different. Jace has long bright blonde hair styled in that Justin bieber/emo style while Davis has his dark black hair in a fohawk. Davis has dark brown eyes and Jace has bright blue eyes. Jace is has a smaller and is about 5'6 while Davis huge with muscles and is 6'2. Davis has dark Latin skin while Jace isn't pale, but has a light skin tone. Jace has a smooth face which makes him look younger while Davis has a little stubble which makes him look older. The only thing they have in common is that they're both 19 even, though they don't like it, and they both wear an unmate necklace.

"Jace and Davis either you guys get along or go away. I don't want you to mess with my fried so and I's evening by you guys pickering," Ian tell them.

"I can behave, but I don't know if this savage can," Jace says pointing at Davis.

"I can do whatever Barbie here can do," Davis says gesturing to Jace.

"Don't call me Barbie."

"Yeah sorry. At least Barbie can get a guy."

"I can get any guy I want."

"Sure you can," Davis says sarcastically.

"I said shut up," Ian screamed at them. They quieted down, but still glared at each other.

That's when all the lights went out and all the music stopped. People were whispering what was going on and what to do when the wind started to pick up. I looked up and saw a bright white light coming towards us from the sky. The light started getting closer and closer. Once it was near enough you could see what more like who it was. Diana and Demon were wearing some gold and white greek toga thing and riding a golden chariot being pulled by two Pegasus. They had a rainbow aura tail following them as they rode. Have you ever seen a rainbow at night. It's really pretty. They did a few spins and twirls in the air before gracefully landing. The rainbow aura swirled around them before exploding into colorful fireworks. They look like gods right now with the whole get up and light show. Though something about this whole scene felt familiar. I just didn't know from where.

The whole crowd clapped and cheered for them. They took a bow before exiting the chariots. When they did their whole greek costume thing dissolved and they were wearing normal clothes. Demon wore a black buttoned up shirt with a grey vest and black slacks. The sleeves were nicely rolled up to his elbows and his hair was in a quiff. Diana wore a long black dress and black shoes. She also had a gold jewelry on her.

They started to greet the crowd and all the lights and music went back on. I was going to talk to Ian some more when I saw Ivan running away and Kendall running after him. Kendall looks really worried and that means something. Kendall rarely shows his emotions. I run after them.

"Ivan...Ivan wait," I hear Kendall scream. He hasn't noticed yet that I'm following them since I'm still a couple yards away from him.

"L-leave m-me a-alone," I hear Ivan say. He runs faster and goes out through the gates and into the forest.

Kendall trips over a rock and falls. "Crap"

I catch up to him and help him get up. "What's wrong with Ivan," I ask.

He dust himself off and pull off his dirty glasses and cleans them with his shirt. "I don't know. I was just by the door when I saw him running out crying about something. I chased him and well this happened. I'm really worried," he tells me.

"Okay. He couldn't have gotten that far. Let's go," I said and we start running again. We followed his footprints and in 5 minutes we started to hear somebody sniffling behind a tree. We follow it and find Ivan on a rock with his legs to chest crying into them.

"Go away. I want to be alone," he says softly.

"We can't do that. We're your friend," I said walking closer. He doesn't move. Just stay there as tears fall down his face. I get on the rock and wrap my arms around him. He puts his head on my shoulder. "Do you want to talk about it?"

He nods his head. "W-well J-Jordan and I were in his room talking and goofing off when some of my hair fell into my face. Jordan pushed back and we looked at each other. We were looking into each other's eyes when." He starts to cry some more on my shoulder.

"Sh sh sh. It's okay. You don't have to tell us," I say.

"I kissed him. I fuckin kissed him," he sobs into my shoulder. "I thought he liked me. He always teases me, so I thought maybe he likes me at least a little, but all it was was teasing. He pushed me away and I fell. I looked up and saw him trying to control himself. He was trying not to get mad at me, because he didn't want to hurt my feelings and that's when I knew. He doesn't like me. He couldn't even look at me. That's how much he didn't like me. I ran away before he could say anything."

Kendall sits on the other side of him and hugs him too. "Oh Ivan. I'm so sorry. Jordan is jerk. He doesn't deserve you."

"But I want him too," Ivan whispers. We stay there soothing Ivan for the next couple minutes.

Damien p.o.v.

"Yeah totally. We will totally hang out," I say to some guy who pretends to be my friend as I walk away. I've been looking for my friends for the last 10 minutes, but they're nowhere to be found. The only person who I've talked to is Brittany and she has been really annoying. Pregnancy is so not for her.

As I walk into one of the many living rooms in the palace I finally see one of my friends, Jordan. He's pacing back and forth looking stressed.

"Hey man are you okay," I ask.

"No, dude. I think I messed up big," he says trying to keep still.

"C'mon dud it can't be that bad."

"It's about Ivan," he says getting kind of nervous.

I clench my fist trying to control my anger. Ivan is like a little brother to me, so I feel an overprotectiveness over him. I feel the same way about Nick and Diana, so if he hurt him badly I don't know if I will be able to control myself. "What happened," I say through clenched teeth.

He sighs and looks down. "I...I like him a lot." If he pressured him to do something I swear to god I will kill him and send him to darkest place in Afterlife. "I didn't know how much till...he kissed me." My eyes go wide. He kissed Jordan. "When I felt lips on mine I almost lost it. I felt something, so primitive like my spirit animal wanted to come out and claim him right then and there. He took control for a sec and grabbed Ivan, but soon I realized what I was about to do, so with the little will power I had left I pushed him away. I tried to compose myself and look away, but as soon as I saw his face my heart nearly broke. I saw the sadness and pain in his eyes. He thought I rejected him. Before I could explain myself he turned my feet into stone and ran away." I could see the tears in Jordan's eyes. This really was hurting him and he really does like Ivan.

"Dude you messed up bad this time," I hear Zane say. We turn and see him standing right next to us. I don't remember him standing there. I would probably be angry that he's eavesdropping, but right now Jordan needs as much help as he can get.

"He knows Zane. You don't have to rub it in," I say.

"No, I don't mean like normal bad. I mean bad bad. As in the rest of his life bad," Zane say seriously.

"What do you mean," Jordan says sniffling.

"You said you felt your spirit animal trying to take control?" Jordan nods his head. "Well from my experience it could mean you found your mate."

"His mate," I say at the time Jordan says, "your experience."

"Yeah, the more dominant mate which isn't always the male will feel there spirit animal take control if they kiss and are 17 which you fall under both," Zane explains.

"Wow," I say.

"You're still avoiding the question. What do you mean by your experience," Jordan questions. Seriously? We are talking about his mate and he's wondering about Zane's life.

Zane's cheeks turn a little pink and looks away. "Well you see. Four weeks ago I went to this restaurant thing and they had a theme. It was called darkness shows the truth. Anyway we were put into pitch black room, with ear plugs on, and given glow in the dark ink pens. We wouldn't talk only write. If we liked each other than we could leave with them. Anyways I met this cool chick and we got along great. She ended up on my lap and we kissed. I felt the same exact way you did, but before I could get her number or even look at their face she left. I asked my uncle and he told me it could have been my mate. The good thing is that the lips felt familiar, so I know I've kissed them before. I've been going through my old girlfriends these last couple of weeks kissing them, but nothing."

"Wow. I'm sorry man," I say patting his back.

"It's fine," he says.

"Aren't you going to go after Kendall though. You said you really liked the kiss," Jordan asked.

"Yeah, but that was like three years ago and this is my mate," Zane tell him. Jordan nods his head understanding.

"Okay. Now that we've told each other out secrets let's get to work. How are we going to get you and Ivan together," I say.
