All Chapters of My Shadow Mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

You know what it’s like when you cause trouble with your friends, and right when you’re about to get punished, your friend somehow disappears or gets their ass saved by some mystery magic? Well, Aria just pulled that magicky shit on me right now and I want to cuss her out to the moon and back!I’m left facing an enraged Andy alone, and Ansel is not far behind. Their twin green eyes staring back at me...well more like glaring down at me. Those two are so similar that it’s unnerving. Their moms are twins, but they are not. They are cousins, but they basically grew up together, and look somewhat identical, at least in their eyes. Ansel has curly sandy blond hair while Andy has buzzcut brown hair, he never lets it grow out long enough to see whether it is curly or not. They are both close in physique, but Ansel is burlier than Andy, probably because of the beta blood in his veins. Those of power tend to grow bigger than the rest somehow, especially after they shift for the first time and

I wake up to the sound of my door unlocking and being pushed open. I instantly sit up and realize the sun is setting, but I don’t dwell on it as my eyes train on the door as it opens to reveal Richfield walking in with a tray holding what I presume to be food. I watch as he balances the tray on one hand, and with the other flips the switch to flood the room with light. his rough and muscular features give an indication of the powerful experienced and well-trained enforcer he is, but beneath his rough exterior, he is a kind man who loves his family despite their many flaws. The only person who’s ever shown me any kindness or even come to my defence in this entire pack. I think originally, I’m supposed to call him dad, but after his wife vehemently refused to have any of that, there was no choice but to call them by their names; Richfield, Helena and Penelope, Oh and Mars, the girl they had to take in but don’t want. That’s the entire family.“You’re awake.” He says as he walks in and s

“You’re damn right I am, now what the fuck were you trying to do to my mate?!” King’s angry words have me in equal states of panic and relief because clearly, these barbaric people won’t hurt me now that he’s here and has claimed me as his mate, but also, he has claimed me as his mate, in front of all of them, and that is probably going to bring about a whole lot of backlash. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me! Her, of all the people you could be mates with, her?!” Alpha Richmond almost roars in anger and frustration...and I’m sure he’s only frustrated because he won’t get the chance to wring my neck like he was promising to do just a few minutes ago. There are mummers all around us and even though not many people are here, I know the news of my inability to shift would travel faster than a wildfire, and by the time noon meets the pack, everyone everywhere will know. There’s no way anyone is keeping this a secret. “Yes dad, her. She’s, my mate. Now just what were you trying to

I wake up very early in the morning, pull on some leggings, a t-shirt and sneakers, tie my hair up in a ponytail, then head out and go for a run to clear my head and prepare myself for the day. I run along the fields, parks, and even bypass the training grounds before coming back to the house to get ready for school. I meet Richfield when I enter the house, he’s lacing his boots in the living room. Looks like he’s going over to the training field. He raises his head when he hears me enter.“Hey Mars, went out for a run?” He stops lacing his boots and sits straight to talk to me.“Yeah, it’s pretty early and I decided why not?”“I see, anyone give you any trouble?”“Oh no, people weren’t out and about, so no. I’ll be going to school and just wanted to stretch my legs before then.” He cocks his brow at me.“Is that really a good idea? Are you sure you wanna do that?”“Yes, I can’t run away from this. I might as well start facing it, the faster the better.” He looks at me and then smiles

It’s been exactly a week since my birthday, and King and I have been working hard to make me shift, we’ve been thinking of a way out of the whole murder me deal, but still nothing. Even though my hope is beginning to waver, King is determined that we’ll get out of this somehow. And believe it or not, his best friend; Ansel is helping us out. However, his best friend; Andy, doesn’t want to so much as look at me, and when he does, it’s with so much anger and disgust. Every chance he gets, he wants to pick on me, and if not for King in his way, he’d have punched my face into a locker or a wall or maybe even a floor by now. He is without a doubt the douchebag to end all douchebags. Well, when we put him out of the equation, we have Penelope being a bitch to end all bitches. She is doing everything she can to make me look bad and be hated, almost like she’s forgotten that I’m not the pack’s favourite person. She’s telling lies and spreading rumours about me, she’s calling me names and bein
