Dark Prophecies: Second Chance Mates Novels & Stories

A sound akin to a whine slid through my chest one last time and I clutched it tight when it was all over as fast as it had started. I couldn't even keep still but a hand pulled me over to the seat and when my eyes finally pried themselves open, I realized it was Kayden instead. He in turn walked towards Leia, who couldn't even contain the excitement on her face as they did a repeat of what Kieran and I just did. “I, Kayden Blackwood, reject you, Leia Kane as my mate.” And soon, it was all over. “Splendid!” Circe applauded. “Now, that wasn't so bad, was it?” she waltzed towards Leia, making her hold hands with Kieran, who was once my mate. “Now it's time to make new memories. You know what to

"Now I don't have much time left with you. But I know you will have your second chance mate and I need you to cherish him and love him in ways never thought of. He will be the key to your survival. I love you Minerva. I'll see you someday." With that I was sitting back on my bed without getting to tell my mother that I loved her back. I didn't know I was crying until Slate wiped my face. I looked at him and he smiled. "I knew it would happen. The same happened to me when dad gave me my book. We will work together and make our families proud and finish off the threat to our world," he assured me. I smiled at him and continued flipping through my book. I found the prophecy and while reading

Every morning. “We leave in 30, try to keep it together” He says. Today we are visiting the Dark Falls Pack in search of our second chance mate. Our pack’s seer said our second chance mate would break the curse. Break. Such an easy word for something that has ruined generations. I’m hoping she can break the curse before we break her. And somewhere out there is a second chance mate who has no idea her life is already tied to mine. No idea that the moment I find her, she’ll either save me…

"Instead, it will unleash a plague that turns both species into mindless abominations." My legs buckled. I collapsed onto a stone bench, calling up more satellite imagery with shaking fingers. "I still have access," I said. "To James's systems. Backdoors I found during our divorce." " You could get us in." Callum's voice was husky with emotion. " Yes." The word felt like ash in my mouth. "But using those passwords means confronting James. Confronting everything I've been running from." Sofiа weaved in and out of the ancient texts; her movements urgent. "The prophecy speaks of two paths," she intoned. "One in which former lovers bring destruction." Her eyes seemed to pierce into my very core.

Mary said "What do you mean by Truly Fated Mates? Aren't all Mates Fated Mates?" Claire asked "Yes, but normal Mates can have more than one Mate like you do with the twin Alphas and Beta Gwen. Or if their Mate dies, they have a chance to get a second chance Mate and move on with their life. But Truly Fated Mates are destined to be together forever. They will never have another Mate as long as they live, even if the other dies. They will not have a second chance Mate," Dr. Mandy said.

My stomach twists painfully. “What prophecy?” I ask quietly. Elder Miriam looks between Maverick and me with pure fear in her eyes. Then slowly… she begins speaking. “Centuries ago,” she says weakly, “there existed a bond so rare that wolves believed it to be a myth.” The room becomes deathly quiet. “A second chance mate bond,” she continues. “Not given for love… but for fate.” A cold chill crawls down my spine. Maverick’s jaw tightens beside me.

"Love, you say? Sex isn't love, my dear, and I don't love! Never will. I was just doing all that with you because I felt like it. Do not feel too important. I do that with over a hundred women daily in my harem chambers." I noticed her eyes becoming blurry with tears, and I cocked my head. Knowing fully well I haven't even hurt her yet. When I am done with her, her eyes will find tears but won't see any. I pushed her away as I released my grip on her jaw. "You are my second chance mate. I never thought I had any after Elena. May the goddess bless her soul." With a shaking voice, she asked, "What happened to your first mate?" "Not with the questions again, girl!" I snapped, my canines coming

“I….I-” “He’s an Alpha,” Boyd said as Mick struggled for the words. “A pathetic wolf-less one, but an Alpha nonetheless.” Cortina snarled at Boyd calling our mate pathetic, but I was frozen inside, gawking at the man I was now tied to . I never wanted a mate again after Cameron, and I never wanted to have to submit to a selfish, womanizing, tyrannical Alpha again. I was still trying to work through the fact I had a second chance mate. Now……

“But I already had a fated mate!” “And now you've got another one,” Dargan scoffed, as if it was obvious. “Second Chance Mate, I think they’re called.” Second Chance Mate… They said second chance mates were just a lore. A bedtime story for children, a fairy tale. Something lovers whispered under their breath during long winters and full moons. Some said it was a blessing from the goddess. A gift for her favorite children. Something that happened once every blue moon, if at all. I never believed it – and even if I did, I never thought of myself as worthy of something like that…
