Mated to the Ancient Alphas Son

Manny's POV

My name is Manuel Antonio Rodriguez, I was born November 8th 1973 on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico, to parents Gloria and Alfredo. I'm the youngest of 8 siblings, 5 sisters and 2 brothers. Growing up in the countryside of the island with my family was great. My parents worked in the city, and that's where we attended school.

We lived on my grandparent's homestead in a 4 bedroom home, one of the many houses out here on the land. My Papau and Memau had 9 kids, including my dad. We grew most of our own food, lots of fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices. We also raised chickens, cows, goats, sheep, turkeys, pigs and rabbits that we butchered for food.

My Papau also taught me how to hunt and fish. I enjoyed hunting the most, it just felt I don't know.. natural to me. He showed me how to use a wooden bow & arrow first, then various knives, axes, machetes and finally guns. I was excellent at all types of weaponry, it was second nature.

We sold the land and moved to Chicago's Humboldt Park area in March of 1984. Living in the big city was really different from the countryside. I miss the country life, if ever I am able to, I want to live like that again.

We didn't have a lot of animals anymore, my grandma kept her some chickens though, she loved fresh eggs. We couldn't hunt anymore but could still fish in the Humboldt Park Lagoon or at Lake Michigan. Our school was closer, everything was a short walk away. We no longer grew a lot of our own food or had to butcher any animals. And the weather was much more different, colder. It.. took awhile to get used to.

I graduated from Roberto Clemente high school in 1991. I decided to join the Marines that summer and after nearly 6 years now I'm back home. I'm eating at my Tios' (Spanish for Uncle) restaurant enjoying a jibarito meal (jibarito is a steak sandwich with grilled onions, cheese, mayo, lettuce and tomato, between 2 flatten and fried plantains served with traditional rice and beans).

It was cozy in here some random telenovela was on the TV and soft Samba music playing in the background. I had been back for about a month now and enjoyed seeing my family and spending time catching up with everyone.

I was able to buy myself a nice 4 bedroom/ 3 and a half bath home and a '98 royal blue Cadillac Deville. My cousin Victor encouraged me to buy a Harley Davidson motorcycle, he said it'll help in getting the ladies to notice me. ME! Oh the ladies notice me, I'm a caramel colored, towering 6'7" tall, ripped 275 pound GOD of a man! Believe me, they notice me bro.

It was April now, Easter Sunday and the weather was warming up a bit, but still windy as usual. It ain't called the Windy City for nothing. My face has some stubble and I was sporting a bald fade, I'm really looking forward to my hair growing back I had to keep it cut while in the Marines. I had on a blue muscle shirt and black slacks.

"So what are you planning on doing with yourself now that you're back, sobrino (nephew)?" My uncle asked.

"Honestly I just want to settle down unc, being single sucks. I want what you and aunt Marie got, a marriage and solid foundation. I want some little Mannys running around." I told him honestly.

Aunt Marie looked up from the register smiling, then came over and gave her hubby a kiss.

"Awww gracias (thanks) Manny" she told me gladly.

He looked at me a little surprised, "Really?! Already?" I nodded.

"Well just know that it ain't gonna just happen overnight. It takes years of trust, loyalty, honesty, sacrifice, respect and unconditional love to have a great marriage work out, you understand?"

He said turning and tapped Marie on her ass as she walked by. She just looked at him and smirked shaking her head. He was cooking orders behind the counter while talking to me, a few nearby customers verbally agreed with him. So did I.

"Entiendo Tio" (I understand uncle) I smiled.

I missed my uncle, he and his wife Marie, started off selling plates of food to pay bills and raised enough money with the family's support to open up their own restaurant.

He could retire if he wanted to but he loved cooking too much. My grandpa, his father, told me when I was younger to invest in my future, so I did. Before I went off to the Marines I had bought several shares in various companies that turned out a nice return, so I had a good nest egg to rest on. Just for something to do, I am considering applying for the head security guard position at my old high school starting in August.

I was sitting there lost in thought eating my sandwich when suddenly felt this pulling sensation in my lower abdomen. It was growing stronger by the moment and then I heard this beautiful voice next to me.

"Hey Papa, my grammy wants to order your delicious rotisserie chicken meal again." The lovely voice sang.

"Coming right up!" my uncle said to her. And he called out the order.

I slightly turned and saw this young, fine ass black chick sitting next to me, and she smelled GOOOOD!.. Like the freshly harvested lavender and ginger root that my Memau used to grow. And it was turning me on like a motherfucker.

She giggled and it was a melodious sound that made my dick jump, and something stirred somewhere deep within me. And I faintly heard the word 'Mate'...the fuck? I frowned.

She bit her lip slightly while swinging her legs back and forth, staring excitedly behind the counter watching my Tio prepare her meal when she caught sight of me and said cheerfully, "Hi!" she smiled and it brightened up her face and my day along with it.

"Hello" I say a smirk easing on my face. Her smell was intoxicating and mouth watering. I breathe it in and shivered slightly. Hmm I wonder if she taste as good as she smells. Because I'm starving and would love to take a bite of her. I unknowingly licked my lips.

Manny's POV

Her eyes were the color of molten caramel outlined in dark blue, I never seen anything like it before. She was wearing a short yellow summer dress covered in white daisies with black flip flops with a fake daisy on it. Her thick, curly dark hair was parted down the middle in a zigzag pattern put into two low ponytails tied in yellow ribbons, damn she was cute! I was checking her out but she couldn't tell as I had on my shades.

She looked curiously at the sandwich that I was holding. I eyed my sandwich then her and asked, "Have you ever had a jibarito before?"

She frowned a bit and cocked her head to the side, "A what?"

"A jibarito, that's what this is."

She shook her head, her perfectly arched eyebrows raised, "No, I've never seen or heard of that before in my life!" She exclaimed.

Then I explained to her what it was and asked, "Would you like a bite?"

She looked a little surprised her eyes widened, she blinked saying, "Sure!"

I handed it to her, but instead of grabbing the sandwich from me she opened her mouth and took a bite. When her juicy, soft, plump lips touched my fingers as she took her bite, it felt like I was struck by lightning! ⚡⚡⚡

*CRACKLE* 'Grrr, 'MATE!'.... WTH?!!!

I shivered a little, felt goosebumps erupt on my skin and my hair stood on end! I was in a daze and I shook my head to try and dispel this feeling. It wasn't a bad feeling at all, quite pleasurable but a little bit overwhelming.

"Mmm that was delicious!" she exclaimed happily. "And it's called a 'jibarito'?" she pronounced it slowly.

"Uhh.. yeah you said it right. Would you like me to buy you one?" I asked her, blinking hard a few times.

"Really?!" she said surprised, smiling.. she's got dimples.. damn, that's hot!

"Yeah I don't mind." I smirked, licking my lips.

"Sure, I'd love one!"

"Ok, one jibarito meal coming up!" My uncle said happily, "Is it to go?"

"Yes, Papa! Thank you!" she called him Papa because that's the name of his restaurant not because he was her father they were not related.. yet, I thought.

"So how's your grandmother doing?" my Tio asked her.

"She's much better now that she's out of the hospital." she said. "The doctor says she has something called diabetes. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't sound good."

She looked sad lowering her head and sighing her lip pouting a bit. Damn, even when she was sad she was fine. I didn't like seeing her like that though; it made my chest ache slightly.

"So what are you doing today?" I asked her, I wanted to know if she single.

She glanced over at me warily, "I gotta finish washing clothes and cleaning up, find something to cook for dinner and do my homework," she said casually. I wanted to know more about her; especially if she was single and why the hell I felt like that when she touched me.

"That's quite a 'TO DO' list for such a pretty girl" I told her, she blushed, smiling at me shyly. I was shocked I actually seen her blush, I chuckled.

"I help my Grammy take care of my little brothers and my sister."

"Oh I see, well I'm sure she appreciates you a lot, doesn't she?" I turned towards her giving her my full attention. I had this overwhelming urge to scoop her up and wrap her legs around me, burying my nose in her neck. I felt like I needed to touch her. My fingers were itching for her.

She nodded "Yup, I don't mind." She shrugged. "Because, I love and appreciate my Grammy!" she smiled proudly.

I asked her more about herself, extremely interested in getting to know her. I found out she's from Chicago and lives with her Grandma and her 5 younger siblings, she's the oldest. She's 15 yrs old and a Scorpio like me which means she's a super freak, hell yeah.. major turn on. Her birthday is a day after mine; we can definitely share our b-day parties together. If she's up for it she can share a whole lot more like.. my home.. my bed.. my last name.. Fuuuck she smells good, I need her.. NOW!

"Hey, are you single?" She was surprised by my question but nodded shyly, "Yes.. I am." YES! I thought triumphantly.

"Here you go girl, 1 half chicken meal and 1 jibarito meal." my uncle said handing her the bag.

"I'll pay for it Tio." I said.

Upon hearing this, her head snapped towards me with shocked eyes, her mouth agape and out of nowhere she gave me a hug!

⚡CRACKLE⚡ 'SHIVERS'.. GROWL! 'MATE!'...

There's that feeling again! WTF! I looked down at her and she was looking suspiciously at my chest. Then she beamed at me.

"OMG thank you so much mister I greatly appreciate it!" she said grinning at me.

I was dizzy as fuck and just nodded awkwardly looking down at her. I felt like I almost busted a nut when she hugged me. She grabbed her bag turning to leave while I was trying to gather myself.

"Hey!" I called to her, someone near the door told her I was calling her and she turned around. "Yes?"

"What's your name?" I asked. "Oh", she beamed, "I'm Keya and again thank you so much!" she said looking truly grateful.

"Keya.." that's a sexy ass name. "Cool" I nodded, "I'm Manny," she nods.

"I gotta go my Grammy is really hungry, goodbye!" she smiled, waved and left.

Keya...what a beautiful name, I unknowingly smiled, My Keya. It's her, I know she's the one, the one I've been longing for. That's wifey right there, hell yeah.. My Little Chocolate Princess..

"Are you okay?" my Tio asked eyeing me curiously.

Hell No I'm not okay with just a touch this girl was able to render me temporarily paralyzed and.. Oh Fuck is my dick hard Too?! WOW! She is mine! MINE! I wanted to go after her but if I get up this whole damn countertop will go with me. I have NEVER had any woman make me feel the way she just did.. I think I'm in love!

Still shaken up a little I answered, "Uh yeah unc, I'm alright." I glanced towards the door where My Keya just left. My Uncle says, "I think she may be a little too young for you, Manny, you may have to wait on that one." I looked at him pissed and snapped, "No Tio she's mine.. and I don't want to wait!" I smirked mischievously. She's all Mine!

Keya POV

We just got home from church where they held their annual Easter day service. And I couldn't wait to leave, I'm so over these ancient ass men gawking at and fantasizing about me. I mean some of them are literally old enough to be my great grandfather, ewww it makes me want to vomit. Their nasty lustful stares, I love going to church to learn, but hate it because those men are gross, some have children older than me!

So I turned on the radio, popping in my Aaliyah, One in a Million CD to have some tunes whilst I clean up the house. I put in a load of clothes to wash and started washing the dishes, when I hear Grammy calling me.

"Keya, come here gurl!"

I dry my hands on a kitchen rag and walk over to the living room, which is right next to the kitchen only separated by a half bath.

"Yes Grammy?"

She's in her favorite recliner watching her favorite channel, the Food Network. We love getting ideas for cooking new meals. She's sipping on some ice water in an old Prego sauce glass.

"I'm hungry, do you know what you cooking for dinner yet?" She asked me.

She had just came back from the hospital on Thursday and her doctor told her to start eating better, if she doesn't want to end up in there again but she's so damn stubborn. She has so many health issues already and it seems like every time she goes back they tack on another, it's quite depressing.

I take care of my four brothers and my sister, plus help my Grammy also. I keep the house clean, cook almost all of the meals and wash everyone's clothes. If they ever need anything, I'm usually the person to get it done. Doctors appointments, school conferences, field trips, you name it I've done it. I don't mind at all but it leaves me no time for myself really.

"I'm not sure yet Grammy, but you know I'll put something together." I always do.

"Ok well go over to Papa's and get me one of those chicken meals will ya" she told me.

I looked at her warily, "Grammy, seriously didn't you just get out the hospital 2 days ago?" I pursed my lips putting my hand on my hip.

"Gurl I don't wanna hear that shit go get me my damn food and hurry on back here!" She snapped narrowing her eyes. Like I said, she's stubborn.

I sighed and threw up my hands in defeat, I'm not tryna get bitch smacked by my OG. "Ok gimme the money, and is that all you want from there?"

"Yup" she said handing me a $20 from her purse. I left shaking my head, she really needs to start eating better and lose some weight, she's over 240 pounds and at 5'2" that's just too much unhealthy weight for her in her late forties.

My brothers were either down the street playing basketball with their friends or riding their bikes and my lil sister was upstairs listening to music. I walked through the back yard to take a short cut and will be at the restaurant in no time.

I felt like something was tugging at me. Like someone hooked a line behind my naval and was reeling me in and it got stronger the closer I got to the restaurant. What the hell was going on?

Walking in I noticed this gigantic man sitting at the counter. He looked like a WCW wrestler or something. My feet were on autopilot and the line was dragging me towards him. I tried sitting in other seats but my body wouldn't let me. I found myself plopping down next to him. I was super nervous I greeted Papa and ordered Grammy's food.

Mmmmm damn this food smells good and Papa cooks with such skill and enthusiasm I wish my future hubby could cook like that. I doubt it though I giggled.

I was a nervous wreck sitting so close to this giant that my body wouldn't be still, my feet were swinging and my fingers tapped on the counter. Like my body was trying to grab his attention.

I felt the giant man turn to look at me, I didn't want to be rude or anything so I said, "Hi!"

"Hello" he says and gave me this super sexy smile, shit he has dimples for days. I mean they look so deep I may be able to lay my pinkie finger in there. Did he just lick his lips at me? And.. what the hell is he eating... a banana burger?!!!!

He asked, "Have you ever had a jibarito before?"

I don't even know what 'it' is.

"A what?" "A jibarito? That's what this is." I shook my head, "No, I've never seen or heard of that before in my life!" He explained what it was and asked me, "Would you like a bite?"

Wow he's seriously offering me a bite? Sure why not, "Sure!" So I bit it trying not to bite off his finger and he growled at me.. did I bite him?? So I started chewing the food in my mouth and WOOOW! It was de-fuckin-licious! I closed my eyes in bliss.

"Mmm that was delicious!" It practically melted in my mouth, oh goodness it was orgasmic.

"And it's called a 'jibarito'?" I pronounced it slow hoping I said it right. Then he offered to buy one, hell yeah he could!

"Really?!" I was so excited.

"Yeah I don't mind." He smirked, licking his lips, 'gulp' and I felt my panties getting wet. I never knew one action could cause such an effect.

"Sure, I'd love one!"

"Ok, one jibarito meal coming up!"

"Is it to go?" Papa asked me.

"Yes, Papa! Thank you!" Damn a free meal, today is starting to look up!

"So how's your grandmother doing?" Papa asks me.

"She's much better now that she's out of the hospital. The doctor says she has something called diabetes. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't sound good." If only she would eat better and exercise a little more she would be better. I'm really sad I can't persuade her much.

Then the generous giant asked, "So what are you doing today?"

Same ol' same ol', "I gotta finish washing clothes and cleaning up, find something to cook for dinner and do my homework."

Same shit, different day. He seems interested in me but I barely have time for myself, I definitely don't have time for a boyfriend. I wish I did though, a girl could dream right? And he is dreamy.

"That's quite a 'To Do' list for such a pretty girl." he smirked and I felt my toes curl. OMG is he.. flirting with me? Wow, I think I just got a little wetter. I pray this food's done soon..

"I help my Grammy take care of my little brothers and my sister." And I have no social life..

"Oh I see, well I'm sure she appreciates you a lot, doesn't she?" His deep voice is making me leak like a faucet, this is crazy.
