The Flesh That Mates Novels & Stories

Bears mate meaning. The results popped up almost instantly, and I started scrolling. Most of the articles were about, well, actual bears in the wild, and the biology of their mating habits (which, ew). But then I stumbled across something different—a forum thread discussing the concept of mates in mythology and folklore. “In many legends, a mate is not just a partner, but a soul bond—someone chosen by fate to be their other half.

We moved together, reverent and feral, tender and savage. Tyler worshipped me like I was precious. I took him like he was survival.

Fingers crossed, they listen. "You look so adorable while deep in thought," Tisha says playfully. She sits up in bed and caresses my back. "Good morning." "Good morning," I murmer back before leaning toward her so I can kiss her lips. "Last night was amazing," she whispers before licking her mark. Her action causes the bite on my chest to tingle. A moan escapes my lips as the sensation travels throughout the rest of my body. I lay back on the bed and memories of the night before come flooding in. Tisha and I have only been able to give into our mate lust a total of three times. The first two times, we were incredibly inexperienced and learning the curves of each other's bodies. Two women hav

I could feel my heart sink as she spoke, a heaviness settling in my gut that was impossible to ignore. "Mates," she said, the word hanging in the air like a delicate thread, "means two people the gods themselves have deemed to be perfect for one another, two souls intertwined in a way that transcends mortal understanding. It's a connection that is said to be forged in the heavens, an unbreakable bond that pulls these two individuals together across time and space, across lifetimes. It’s a love that is supposed to be pure, untainted by the world's harsh realities. But that’s the thing—love is never that simple, and neither is the idea of a mate."

he said sitting down. “We’re both aware that we’re both mates and that’s something I would call an Abomination to my pack.....” I said boldly with disappointment running all over Creed’s face. “.....So in order to not bring an abomination into the pack, I would need you to reject me as your mate” I snorted at him. “What? I won’t be able to do that” he grunted. “Are you crazy or have you lost your mind? There’s nothing hard there to do, all you have to do is reject me” I groaned to him.

Why do I have to share my non-existent sexual life with him? "No," I reply and bite my lip. I think my cheeks are now cherry red because of embarrassment. "I see. Female werewolves experience heat waves when they meet there mates because they want to mate. Those are the demands of the body and you can't control them. They can come at anytime and sometimes they can be really strong. The good news is, the cure is very easy. You just have to mate with him," he tells me. Easy? He thinks that is easy? Well, my mate's is literally in a different world from mine! Why do these damn heat waves just come at such a wrong time?

He did not just run off, while running he was sniffing the air. Mate That girl is his mate. A human is their alpha's mate, what will the pack say about this, what if his enemies hear about this? Too many damn questions but no single answer.

Stunned, he looked away, facing Melanie, not seeing her. A wave of something akin to nausea joined the desire in his body. What the hell? Here he was, telling himself that he wasn’t interested in meeting anyone. And he wasn’t. His libido had been on hiatus for a long time. But then, in the span of an instant, he was getting rock-hard over a total stranger.

KANE I stood in the shadows, watching as Catherine sat with my mother. I watched how her delicate fingers scribbled something on parchment. They were outside in the garden, surrounded by vibrant flowers. My mate was here, just within reach, yet something gnawed at me. A primal need to claim her, to keep her close, warred with the fear that I could destroy her. I clenched my fists, willing myself to stay calm. My mother’s voice floated over to me, cheerful and full of excitement as she guided Catherine through the process of sending invitations to dignitaries across the realm.

I sat on the corner, just a few feet away. "It's different because it isn't a mate bond." I explained, wondering what this meant for him.
