Play Matchmaker Novels & Stories

“You don’t need to give me a big wedding. I understand that you are only marrying me in the game because you need my help. It isn’t like it is a real wedding or anything.” Something flashed in his eyes for a moment, but it was gone before I could register it. The muscles in his jaw flexed as he gave me a slight nod. A second later he stepped beside me and raised his hand as his transparent menu appeared in front of us. Shortly after my menu appeared in front of me as an automated voice spoke. “Unknown User is asking Player Reyna to become his wife. Will player Reyna accept?” “Yes,” I said, assuming that Luka was known in the game as Unknown User.

“The sun is setting, the babies are asleep, and I am entirely tired of listening to people talk about pack business and trading routes. We are going to play a game before we head back.” Lucius, who is lounging on a chair with Freya curled up next to him, raises an eyebrow. “A game, Luna? What kind of game?” “A traditional Northern couples’ game,” Lyra says, her smirk widening as she looks directly at Freya and Seraphina. “It’s called the Hunter’s Choice. Usually, the men go into the tree line, and the women have to pick a trail to find their match based on scent alone. But since we are by the water, we are going to do it with tokens. The men will cast a token into the basket, and the women m

“Ladies first.” I drew a card, steadying my breathing. The first few rounds were easy — red numbers, yellows, a skip here, a reverse there. But Lucian played like he was reading my mind. Every time I thought I had a move that might give me an advantage, he countered it with something better. His calmness unnerved me. He played a yellow reverse and said casually, “You’re tense.” I placed my card down without looking at him. “Maybe I just don’t like losing.”

My eyes widened as she lay the piece on the board. I glanced at my king realising the position I was in. "Check..." she smirked. I scanned the board desperately trying to ensure she wouldn't add the missing word to the phrase. I heard her laugh. "Mate. Check mate. You lose." Finally I found a move to save me from this defeat. "Check again," I smiled taking away her queen with my knight. The game continued until it ended in a draw. "We have a draw!" We gave each other a handshake before walking off the stage. The co-ordinator, Joel Kindle, explained how they would be selecting their addition to the provincial team then dismissed us.

"I doubt it. I can easily make you fall for me and just as easily break your heart." "Wanna bet?" Cleo asked, her eyes twinkling. "I'm listening." "Let's see... Whoever falls in love with the other before the hotel is completed has to admit it publicly on live TV and quit playing and their favorite hobby for a...year. Deal?" "Deal!... Get ready to be played Miss Reynolds." "On the contrary, you're about to be played, Mr. Simmons. Played real good." She said shaking my hand. I smiled. Let the games... BEGIN! T B C

Edward looked fondly at his boyfriend and noticed his mother was staring at him with a curious look on her face. He took action to distract her. “Can we play it again so it’s a best of three?” he asked. As he predicted, his request drew his mother’s attention to his father. Lord Grey was the one who made the game playing decisions. “We can play again, then no more Cluedo- I know what you’re like when you lose, Edward,” he said.

As he came up to us, I got a closer look at him. He had tanned skin that radiated under the sun and he moved so gracefully like royalty. His eyes were deep amber and he had a perfect body. I sighed, what was worse than having three hot men as mates? He stopped right in front of me and took my hand. I felt sparks inside of me as I made contact with him. My stomach suddenly developed butterflies as I felt a tinge of sensation as his hands held mine. "Hey baby, I am Damon, Alpha of Midnight Pack", he said while searching my face. Shit…another alpha. "Mia", I muttered. He nodded his head and looked towards my other mate, "I guess we are all sharing one mate". They laughed.

And we had one more game to prove it. Kylian stepped up again like the café was his personal stage. “Alright, for our final round—we’re bringing the drama,” he grinned. “This one’s called Blindfold Match-Up.” The crowd leaned in, instantly curious. “Here’s how it works,” Kylian continued, pacing with way too much energy. “Guys will be blindfolded. The girls will be lined up. No talking, no hints, no movement. You stand where we place you, and that’s it. Each guy’s got sixty seconds to find his girl or partner——for those doing this with a friend——If you’re confident you’ve got the right one, go ahead and kiss her."

Give us a chance Mate! Where are you hiding Mate? Please don't hide from me! I won't do anything to you which you aren't ready for yet! I know it came as more of a shock than a surprise for you as it was really unexpected and you weren't mentally prepared to face it but we can go through it together mate, I promise! I will love and take care of you, I promise! I promise to cherish you forever and never hurt or make you cry Mate! Please come back to me! "
