MY UNEXPECTED MATE
"I can't believe you did all this."
Sarah beamed and gestured to the cake. "Well, go on, Bella. Make a wish before you blow out the candles."
My eyes flickered to the cake, the candlelight dancing in my gaze. The room seemed to hold its breath as I closed my eyes and made a silent wish. Deep down in my heart, I wished for one thing – that I'd find my mate, and that he would be none other than Jace. But it was a secret I kept locked away, a yearning that had recently started growing inside me, as I leaned in and blew out the candles. The room was filled with joyful cheers as the flames went off. The voices of my friends, laughing and clapping, surrounded me.
