Hunting for our Mate

Atalanta’s pov “Those are the twins.” My new roommate, Suzie, said. I had been here one week now, and she kept hanging around me. Suzie…. It’s such a sweet name. Why did a werewolf name their daughter something so nice? Probably so that nobody suspects anything. I mean, she doesn’t look like a werewolf. She’s pretty, really friendly, and generous. Nothing you’d think a monster looks like. It’s probably an act. But why would you feel the need to act around your peers? Why be so nice to me? Nobody is ever nice to me. As soon as the two men, because while they might not be eighteen yet, they sure looked like men, came around the corner, I stood there with my mouth open. They'd warned me that werewolf men were attractive. They are all extremely attractive, probably to hide that ugly part of them inside. But these two were beyond attractive. Beautiful? Godlike? I don't know, but I couldn't look away from them. “Twins?” I asked after swallowing the saliva that had gathere

Zev’s pov I had no clue why Raiden invited the poor girl. She’s not the type of girl who hangs around him. Not the type of girl he invites back to our room. Not that Raiden’s very picky. As long as they have boobs and a pretty face, he's game. That man is an ass man, though. If the girl has a good butt, he’ll try extra hard for her to like him. Not that he really has to try. Raiden is one of the most well-known Alpha heirs. People want to hang around him all the time, either to try and get a meeting with his dad or to be friends with the next Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack. Alliences with our pack are like covited treasures. I guess I’m lucky. I don’t have to do anything. I’m born to be his best friend. Our mothers were best friends. They became pregnant together and even gave birth to us on the same day. Mom died when I was young, and ever since Luna Grace and Alpha Ethan took me in. They’re like my parents in a way. I’m lucky to have them in my life. Grace, Ethan, Raiden, and

Raiden’s povCertain classes were mandatory, but there were some you could choose from. Of course, I go to every Alpha class the academy provides, taking full advantage of my time here.It was also a great way to train with other alpha heirs. After a while, it gets pretty boring sparring with the same people. We with alpha genes are built differently, and we’re a lot stronger than the average wolf.So far, nobody has been able to beat me in a sparring match, but that might change once some of these here get their wolves.When we get our wolf, we grow even stronger. We’ll be able to shift, mindlink our pack, and more. I can’t wait.I wonder what my wolf will be like. In some cases, their personalities match those of their human counterparts, but sometimes they’re polar opposites. Whatever the Moon Goddess deems necessary, I guess. Same goes for our mates.And after the day I had, I need to blow off some steam.I have no clue why it doesn’t bother Zev that I keep annoying our little mou

Zev’s pov“You’re going to lose!” I yelled as I started beating up his avatar, pushing buttons as fast as I could.Raiden smirked, “you’re never this competitive. Did something happen? Did I get under your skin? I can’t always step it up, you know. Maybe next mealtime, I will flirt a bit harder. Or maybe, -“I sighed, making Raiden stop midsentence. “Just stop it. It won’t work.”“You’re lying… You like our little mouse.”“If your aim is to get me to fall for her, why do you continue to call her ours?” I teased my friend back.He shrugged, “because she is. Until she’s not... when you claim her as yours."Goddess. Was he always this annoying?Yeah. He was, but it wasn’t usually directed at me. Raiden had always wanted me to meet girls, but he never worked this hard to make it happen. He had said a few things or tried to set me up on a double date, but most of the time it was just jokes and nothing more.But this? This felt different.I hadn’t even seen Raiden hang around a girl he had

Zev's povI was paying attention to class when Raiden moved Atalanta’s hair out of the way. She had a strappy dress on that was a few sizes too big. It reached just below her knees, but because of its size, it dipped down when she sat down, revealing a lot of her back.Although most of her hair was covering the skin, until Raiden moved it.He leaned forward, his chin resting on his right hand, while the left traced circles on her back.There were small scars on her back, different from the ones that happened during what she claimed was a cooking accident.Not touching the scars, Raiden circled around them. Atalanta began breathing heavy and slow, sounding like she would fall asleep any second.I wish I was the one touching her.No. No, I don’t.Focus on the class, Zev! I scolded myself.Yet when Atalanta didn’t know the answer, it was me who helped her. Not Raiden.The next class was without Atalanta, and it felt good to be able to pay attention without either Raiden or Atalanta distr
