All Chapters of Evolutions chosen mate : Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Lisa Most everyone loved Lacey now. They only held a respectable amount of fear, which was a good thing for an alpha… it made her job easier, helped to keep the pack under control, and make them feel safe, because if her own pack held that sliver of fear from the power she held, then what would anyone who dared think of attacking feel? …but fear of the power within was not the best thing for a doctor. I think eventually, when they realize I’m still the same me I always was, it will be better. It’s been a few years already, though. Hopefully, I won’t have to wait much longer. The people who chose me as their obstetrician were few and far between, girls I went to school with and Lacey, of course. The rest had been stuck with me due to our other doctors having no availability, though I knew sometimes my mother just said she didn’t have availability when she knew I had no clients. She loved like that, and a good-sized group of girls who got stuck with me returned to me for their s

Lisa The tables were more sparse towards the edge, the crowd thinned, most everyone pushing towards the front of the garden where Lacey stood hand in hand with Fin, trying to politely dislodge herself from the crowd. My eyes landed at the farthest table, only drinks spread across it. Just behind that stood the most beautiful man I had ever laid eyes on. He was tall, well over six foot. He had dark brown hair, the perfect mix of messy and styled, like he had run his hands through it many times but it still looked perfect. His shoulders were broad, his frame solid, the kind of build that made it obvious he could hold his own without even trying. He had tanned, almost golden skin, covered in intricate black ink designs that I couldn’t pull my eyes away from. The markings wrapped around his arms, disappearing beneath his sleeves, curling up toward his collarbone. They weren’t random, I could feel that much even from here. As my eyes slowly trailed up his body to his face, they con

Rowan All of my muscles clenched as I tried to keep myself from following after her, as her small frame disappeared into the thick of the crowd. Sydney’s feet paused as she turned back towards me, realizing that Lisa didn’t want to be caught. Sydney turned back toward me, a familiar fire burning in her eyes as she marched toward me. I felt the wind stir, letting me know she was truly pissed. “Rowan, I swear to goddess, what did you do? I finally convince her to have a night off and just have fun, and you ruin it.” Sydney shouted as she made it to me, her hand flying out and connecting with the back of my head hard, lurching my neck forward. I rubbed the back of my head where her hand left a sting while a few witches nearby glanced over before quickly pretending not to watch. “What the hell, Syd? I didn’t do anything. Blame her goddess and ours for setting up a bond that is impossible. She’s my mate, though. Our mate bond was doomed the second it started. Witches don’t even h

Rowan waited for Sydney to reappear, the lump that settled in my stomach only grew as she finally returned. Her face was a mask of calm that I had seen her practice many times when she was about to make a situation seem better than it actually was. She forced a light little smile as she made it to me. “She isn’t up to coming back out to finish your conversation right now. She will be, just give her a moment to collect her thoughts.” The muscle in my jaw bounced as I fought to stay in my place. Every instinct inside of me screamed to ignore Sydney and go after Lisa myself. The bond pulled hard in my chest, sharp and demanding, like something inside of me was clawing toward her no matter how much logic tried to hold me back. I had spent my entire life trusting logic. Magic was unpredictable. People were unpredictable. Emotions made people reckless, weak, irrational. I learne
