Jaded From Dating Novels & Stories

Dad asks. “Sure. What’s up?” “As I said, hypothetically…” he drifts off slowly. “If Jagger weren’t mated would you give him a second chance? Or would you keep up whatever you have with Brady?” I haven’t had the heart to tell Dad about Brady yet. Or that I know about Jagger’s arrival. It just hasn’t felt like the right time. “Um well I don’t know. I’m kinda swearing off dating for a little while longer. I’m still adjusting to pack life here, and everything’s just complicated.”

"How was your date on Saturday?" "It wasn't a date," retorted Jaida, getting a bit sick of her friend constantly insisting that it was. She had just gone out with Arius for a bit, that was all. So what if he had kissed her and said that he loved her? That didn't make it a date. In a way they were far beyond that stage of a relationship. If one were to count every time they had gone out together, just the two of them, they would have been on about fifty dates by now.

I said, our gazes locked. Blowing out a breath, he turned away from me. "Jaden-" He grabbed my hand and pulled me to himself, startling me into silence. "You'll always stay by my side, won't you?" he whispered and I closed my eyes, leaning into his embrace. "Always, Jared. Always" I breathed. ... "You want to go on a date" Jaden said, a brow raised. I shrugged. We were back at his quarters two days after Trisha's death. Her body had been burned to ashes and sent to her only surviving family members living far away.

Rashaad asked, flicking a nervous glance his way. Dante instinctively pulled me close to his side. "I have no idea. We aren't supposed to see him for another two weeks." Jasmine perked up, her eyes lighting up with recognition. "Alpha Jalen from the SilverClaw NightWalkers?" "Yes," Dante replied, rolling his eyes. "He has a mate, Jazzy." A mischievous grin played on Jasmine's lips. "I know, he's just sexy as hell," she remarked. Rashaad didn't even attempt to hide the jealousy clouding his features. Despite the knowledge that they weren't mates, there were undeniable strong feelings there—perhaps even love.

Thank you for such an enjoyable day. It isn't until we get home, and I'm settled that I get a response from Daniel. I'm so glad you had fun. And just so you know, I was watching you, too. I bite back a smile. I've never dated a professional athlete before, but if this kind of thing happens often, this is gonna be fun.

“Since moving to the city, I’ve only been to home, school, the food store, and the shop. I never go anywhere else. Since I’m shy, I don’t want to be in a place with a lot of people.” “Then why are you now interested?” I asked once more. Ady gave a smile. “Jasper asked me to watch a movie.” I nodded. “You two are dating now...” The sentence wasn’t a question. I do not wish to inquire. It was just something I thought would hurt less for me. “No! We were just hanging out. Since Jasper isn’t interested in me, we can’t go on a date. It’s just a nice spot to hang out.”

{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#}{#} FIRST DATE The place is nice. Chilled and does look romantic because it is at a high land giving access to see the city view and since it is night, everything is really beautiful. Currently I'm listening to the guy tell me about his work which is almost the same as that of Blake. And yes, I shouldn't think about him in such a beautiful night...righ- "Do you still talk with your ex-husband?" Jarred, my date, asks.

"He stands there mumbling and I zone out. You make it make sense. Also, seriously, how are you this good-looking and still single? Or are you single?" I sighed and rubbed my face. "Jade. Math. Not my dating life." "Come on, just tell me. It will help me concentrate." I laughed despite myself. "Fine. I am single-ish.” I wish I could add, And I mostly stick to guys now. Less drama than what happened last time with a girl. Her eyes lit up. "What happened?" "Being too pretty made her think I owed her something. It got messy, she got obsessed, and I learned my lesson. Now I keep things simple. Or I try to. Do problem three."

Jared POV There is only so much lovey-dovey shit I can take when I've waited thirty-eight years for my own chance at love and yet I am still waiting for my mate. I wouldn't say I'm much of a jealous person because I know I am truly happy for others when they find their soul-mates. It is an astonishing and life changing discovery but when it's plastered right in front of you, every second of every day for the last two weeks, then it gets to me a little.

He’d been so gentle…until I said no. “I’d said no…but it didn’t matter. I cried for three weeks after but couldn’t let anyone see. After all, I was the ‘lucky freshman’ who’d caught his attention. Girls would’ve killed to be in my position… I didn’t feel lucky. Adam decided we were dating; he decided when, where and how often we had sex. He’d remind me I was his…that no one else would want me…that how he treated me was better than I deserved.” I believed him, still did. That Jayden took an interest in me went beyond reason. “Soon, he started making money off me. Guys would pay him for—for their turn.”
