All Chapters of Roll The Dice: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The GoddessSince the beginning of time, I have watched as the world spiraled out of control. The purity, bountifulness, and beauty have been destroyed, replaced by greed, violence, and the vilest transgressions that I could have never foreseen when I added humans and humanoids to my perfect world. What was once rolling hills full of endless flowers and untamed foxes, rabbits, and reptiles had been reduced to dead piles of nature with tunnels through them, and my glorious wild animals, once free and lively, were nothing more than bones covered with a thin, sagging skin searching for food that barely existed anymore.What once was oceans full of clear water and sea creatures more beautiful than anything that had been created before was now trashed beyond recognition. Cans, plastic bags, and countless other things thrown into them created an environment too toxic for my lovingly designed animals to survive in. What were once mountains that were so tall that they created euphoric feeling

18 years laterI sighed silently as Osirus held the door open for me to climb into the back seat again. This mating search was no different from all the rest that we had attended. Osirus came to my house to ride with us to the search grounds. Sometimes, I wished that we had been bonded together, but we hadn’t been. He was my best friend and, all around, the greatest being I knew. He was always down to support me with whatever I needed, and I did the same for him. He was incredible, which fucking sucked because he was everything I ever wanted in a mate. It just sucked that he didn’t tickle my fancy, or my pussy. If he had, I would have already spoken to him about being my chosen mate.“So, this is the year,” my mother told us excitedly, just like she did every year, which drove me crazy. She had so much faith in the search, while I had already given up. “You’re going to find your fated mates.”“Or you can just pick a chosen mate, because they’re just as good,” my father said bitterly,

I woke up to a continued gentle knocking on the door, which caused Osirus’ arm to tighten around my waist the moment I opened my eyes.“No!” he growled, just like he had been doing the entire night since he caught me trying to sneak out to spend the night with Jonas.“You can’t keep me hostage, Ris!” I whispered angrily as I tried to remove his arm from around my waist.“Wanna bet!”“What is your problem?” I grumbled, giving up on trying to escape.“I don’t like him, Tawnie! How many times do I have to tell you that? He is bad news, and you’re my best friend. I would really like it if you just rejected him and moved on. You can have a second chance mate. One that I won’t want to kill for even looking in your direction. Don’t you want that?” he asked, as if it made sense, which only served to make me narrow my eyes at him.“Is this because I found my mate and you didn’t? Or is it because you were hoping that, after this search, I would become your chosen mate?!” I couldn’t help but sna

I grunted as I woke up the next morning, making Osirus laugh next to me. I started thrashing in bed, purposely letting my fist hit him in the balls. He promptly shoved me out of the bed.“THAT HURT!” he yelled as he leaned over the edge of the bed to glare at me. “I know you fight dirty, but for fuck’s sake, Tawnie! I’m just trying to protect you!”“FROM WHAT?!” I yelled as I got to my feet with my hands balled at my side. “From my mate?”“YES!” He roared.“JUST STOP IT, OSIRUS! HE’S NOT GOING TO HURT ME! WHY CAN’T YOU SEE THAT? WHY CAN’T YOU TRUST ME TO BE ABLE TO PROTECT MYSELF?!”“BECAUSE YOU AREN’T THINKING CL

TawnieThe next morning, I was woken up by a soft tapping on the door to our cabin, which immediately made Osirus grumble sleepily. I rolled my eyes as I flipped him off before getting up to answer the door.“I saw that!” he mumbled.I playfully stuck my tongue out and made faces at him, which caused him to pull the covers over his head.“I saw that too! Really mature, Tawnie! Now answer the damn door before I have to eat whoever is on the other side of it!” he ordered.I pulled the door open, blinking in surprise when one of the young women from the search smiled at me.“Good morning, Miss De Sangre. I was asked to give you a message,” she told
