It was so fun teasing my mate. She would get red and all, and her eyes showed so much emotion every time I went near her. I didn’t plan on teasing her so much, but she insisted that she wasn’t my mate when she clearly was.
My wolf, Shadow, practically started shouting in my mind, telling me that the girl in front of me was my mate when I first saw her. There’s no denying that we’re mates, especially when our skin made contact with each other. I felt like a thousand bolts had just flown down my body.
I moved closer and closer to her, leading us to go into the house. Her back was against the brick wall, and she was glaring up at me. Even now, I find her adorable.
“Happy now? What the hell do you want from me?” She said, her voice sending chills down my spine.
I smiled. “I’m very happy. There’s nothing that I want from you because it’s YOU that I want,” I said in a deep voice

My Rival, My Mate Chapter 9: The Mate's Identity
HeraEven if I couldn’t hear his footsteps anymore, I still kept my fast speed in fear of him coming out from the dark. I already kicked him in the family jewels, but he was still able to run after me! What kind of wolf is he?I sighed in relief when I saw the cottage in my vision. I quickened my steps and fumbled to get the key from my pocket. I swiftly opened the door and slammed it shut, making sure that it was locked before I plopped down on the dusty couch.“That was close,” I said as I leaned my head on the backrest. I looked up at the ceiling as I remembered what had just happened in the packhouse.I lightly touched my lips and still felt some sparks on the sensitive area. I bit it and remembered the way the handsome man moved his lips against mine. Oh god. That was my first kiss. I just lost my first kiss to a stranger! To someone I don’t even know the name of! Well, granted that he is my mate, but it still doesn’t ch
My Rival, My Mate Chapter 10: The Search
Arlo“I heard you sent out of some of our warriors to look for your mate,” Devyn said whilst barging into my office.“Yes,” I said, still not looking up from my phone. I was searching up the names of the people who went to the party last night, but I’m still not able to find my mate despite going through the entire list.I heard a chair dragging beside me, and I felt Devyn looking over my shoulder.I sighed. “Can you come back later? I’m busy right now.”He hesitated for a while, but he suddenly started caressing my back.“It’s okay, Arlo. Just because Laura found her mate last night doesn’t mean that you should be in a rush to find yours,” he said. “You’ll find your mate when the right time comes.”“I’m not lying. I really did meet her yesterday,” I argued.“Shh, Shh. It’s fine. Do you want me to call t

Hera“I knew it was you!” He said while looking into my frightened eyes.With all of my strength, I removed his hands from my mouth and looked at him with wide eyes.“River?” I asked. “What are you doing here? And why the hell were you following me?”He turned to me, flabbergasted. “What am I doing here? I should be asking that question to you! Mom and dad just got back in the village, and they’re going nuts trying to find where you are! I saw you walking in the mall and was hesitant at first, but from the way you ran, I knew that it was you.”I sighed and crossed my arms. “Can you just pretend that you didn’t see me? I have a good reason for why I ran away from home, and I would appreciate it if you just let me go. This is probably going to be the last time that you’re going to see me anyway, so please don’t tell mom and dad.”He scoffed. “Are you insa

HeraI’ve been working in this cafe for a week now, and I can say that I’m enjoying it. I’m still wearing a mask for every shift in fear that someone will recognize me.“Hera, you’re brother’s out front. He asked me to call for you,” Claire, one of my coworkers, said.“Yeah, I’m coming. Thanks, Claire,” I said.“No problem, girl. Your brother’s an eye candy, so the pleasure is all mine.”I chuckled. “Just tell me when you want me to introduce you to him.”She blushed. “Nuh-uh. Not now, at least.”“Alright. Can you handle the counter? I’ll be back in a jiffy after talking to him.”She nodded her head, and I went out of our workspace. I saw River sitting by himself in one of the booths, so I hurriedly went over to him.“What’s up? You called for me?”He looked up from his phone an
My Rival, My Mate Chapter 13: The Hiding
HeraI sighed in annoyance as I felt his gaze on me. Ever since he found out that I have been working here, he comes here every day. I’m not even exaggerating! He always stays here for the entire four hours of my shift.“Why the long face?” Claire asked.I nudged my head towards Arlo, who was looking at me with a smile.“Oh, Alpha Arlo? He’s been coming here every day, so we’ve been getting more customers. I don’t get why you’re avoiding him when he’s your mate,” she said while wiping the counters.“He’s not my mate,” I denied.“Alright. Alright. Whatever you say. But it’s not good to be in denial, Hera. It’ll bite you in the ass one day,” she warned.I rolled my eyes. “I got this, Claire. Nothing’s going to be biting me in the ass.”She shrugged. “I know you wouldn’t mind if Alpha Arlo bites your
My Rival, My Mate Chapter 14: The Double Date
Arlo“Come on, bro. Just call River and ask him out on a date.”Devyn turned to me with a stunned face. “No,” he said and shook his head vigorously. “We’ve known each other for not even one semester, Arlo. Why would I ask him out on a date?”I sighed. “It doesn’t have to be a romantic date! Just ask him out on a friendly date and ask his sister to come.”He raised one of his eyebrows. “Oh, I see. So, this is what it’s all about. You want to meet your precious Hera and sweep her off her feet. Why don’t you just ask her out on a date? She’s your mate anyway.”“Do you think I haven’t tried? Where do you think I’ve been wandering around these last couple of days? I’ve been trying to convince her to go on a date with me and live in the packhouse, but she refused every single time. You’re my last resort, Dev. Help your big bro out on th
My Rival, My Mate Chapter 15: The Rogues
HeraI hate River. I can’t believe he called me out here just to leave me alone afterward! It would have been better if I was by myself, but I have Arlo by my side, annoying the shit out of me. I wasn’t even supposed to hang out with River today. It was my day off, and I was planning on sleeping and doing nothing all day.However, when he said that he was going to the carnival, I was tempted to go. Believe it or not, I’ve actually never been to a carnival before. I never liked going out of the house since the people in the village would treat me like a freak, so I stayed at home at every opportunity. I was excited to eat the different carnival foods and ride the exciting rides.However, when I smelled Alpha Arlo’s scent behind me, I wanted to sprint in the other direction and just stay in my cottage.“Come on. Let’s just ride this one, hmm? What’s the use of going to the carnival if we’re just going to walk

Hera“Rogues.”We all froze up in our seats the moment he said that word.“Rogues are still real? I thought that the Werewolf Committee had wiped out all rogues about twenty years ago,” River said, shocked.Arlo nodded his head. “That’s what I thought. But, there has been an emergence of rogues ever since the annihilation of the Silver Raven pack. I heard that there is also a rise in deviant organizations that want to take the most powerful packs down.” He sighed, “If this goes on, then I’m afraid that history might repeat itself.”“What do you mean?” I asked, confused.“Have you never heard about it? The legendary war between the Blood Shadow pack and the Coun—”“Arlo,” Devyn interrupted his statement. “As much as I would love to hear about our pack’s history, I’m afraid that we’re literally being chased by ro

My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: Another Baby?
Third Person’s Point of View It was another busy day in the Blood Shadow pack (what’s new), and everyone was running around, trying to do some last-minute touches before the commencement of Rivalee’s and Belluci’s first birthday party. In the midst of the bustling people, there stood two gentlemen on the stairway, observing a large portrait hung over the wall. “It’s up again, huh?” River asked. Dalton placed his hand under his chin. “Yes. How many times has it been? 12? 13 times since it has been replaced?” River nodded his head. “Yeah. I can’t believe Kairo always manages to hang it again after Arlo already destroyed each and every portrait.” “Well, that’s one thing about Kairo—he never gives up.” Ella, seeing the two idling idiots standing on the stairway, stomped over to where they were with crossed arms. “Stop looking at Kairo and Arlo’s ballet portrait and go to the front gate to greet the guests.

Third Person's Point of View"Dad, please. We haven't been on a date for like...ten months? Don't you think we deserve it?"Kairo merely glanced at his son before continuing to pack his back for the upcoming fishing trip that he was going to have with his friends."That's normal, son. When your mother and I had Laura, we didn't go on dates until she turned four.""That's a lie," Arlo retorted. "I clearly remember grandma Lily telling me that she'd often take care of Laura just so you and mom could go on dates."Kairo scratched the back of his head. "Well, can your date wait another month or so? I have fishing trips booked every weekend of the month."Arlo groaned. "We can't, dad! We'll be busy with Rivalee's and Belluci's joint birthday party by then! And you're going out fishing once again? Who are you even going with? Unce Dalton hasn't been fishing since Belluci's birth!""Well, it's his fault for having a baby so late. I'm g
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: The Baby Names
Third Person’s Point of ViewThey thought that there would only be peaceful days from now on—as Dalton and Arlo would be more focused on their children that they wouldn’t even have any time to ensue chaos. However, there was still one problem that they had to solve—the baby names.The two couples, along with River, Devyn, Emery, and Kairo, were seated on the living room couch, conversing about the topic of baby names.“I thought you’ve already decided on something during your term,” Emery said.“Yeah,” Ella said. “But Dalton thought that our little bean was going to be a girl and named him Princess.”“Then maybe you can just call him Prince,” Emery suggested.“That’s what I said!” Dalton exclaimed.“I feel like it’s too typical. And we’re not a kingdom, we’re a pack,” she defended.

Third Person's Point of ViewRiver carried Hera while Devyn carried Ella out of the room. The two women groaned in pain as they were carried down the stairs.The moment they got down to the living room, they saw their two husbands hugging each other."Thank you for saving my life, Arlo. Although, I would have totally won the competition if you just let me be."Arlo harshly patted his uncle's back, causing him to cough out. "I should have just let you choke to death."Devyn cleared his throat, causing the two men to look at them. Their eyes widened in surprise, and they rushed over to where they were when they saw their wives being carried by Devyn and River."Wh—What happened? Did you get hurt?" Arlo asked Hera."Love, did something happen?" Dalton asked his wife.Hera wanted to respond, but she was in too much pain that she couldn't even utter one word.Thankfully, Ella, who has
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: The Daddy Discourse pt.1
Third Person's Point of ViewThe Blood Shadow pack has never had a peaceful day after they discovered that both Ella and Hera are pregnant. Their husbands made it a pact to overdo each other in every aspect when taking care of their respective wives. From buying baby clothes to painting the nursery rooms and even down to the number of kicks that their babies have, the two men fought with pride.Even today, they were competing to see who could peel the most apples for their mates. Currently, they had a tower of sliced apples in front of them.Their wives, unbeknownst to the war happening in the kitchen, were happily conversing on the couch while watching a cartoon show."How far are you in the term right now?" Hera asked.Ella groaned. "I'm 42 weeks in right now. I'm already two weeks late to my delivery date, and by this time, I just want to give birth to this stubborn baby.""How about you?" she asked."
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: Surprise, I guess?
Third Person's Point of View"Do you think Hera's been acting weird these days?" Dalton asked, looking at the newly-wedded woman sitting on the couch and scarfing down on some lettuce.Not salad.Lettuce.Just plain lettuce.River clicked his tongue. "Well, my sister has been weird since birth, but I do agree that she's weirder these days.""Do you think it's because of Arlo? Has Hera finally lost her mind after marrying him? Maybe I should have warned her more about his weird mannerisms before their marriage," Devyn said.Dalton nodded his head in agreement."Are you badmouthing me behind my back?" a voice suddenly interrupted.The three men looked behind them and saw Arlo with his arms crossed, looking at them with raised eyebrows."You're weird. That's why your weirdness has rubbed off onto my sister," River blatantly said.Arlo frowned."There

Third Person's Point of ViewIt was a beautiful morning in the Blood Shadow pack—not a single sign of chaos ensuing. That is until a familiar scream was heard all around the house."WHAT?" Dalton shouted, turning off the television.Ella worriedly looked around the house, afraid that Dalton's scream would wake up the other pack members."Shh, why do you have to shout? I'm just asking you to be the chaperone for Lyra's field trip.""But why?" he whined. "I'm going fishing with Kairo and the boys."Ella clicked her tongue. "You went fishing three days ago, Dalton! Maria invited me out to the town, and it's been a long time since we hung out. Don't you think I also deserve to go out of the house?""Would that be okay, though? Won't you get tired considering that you're pregnant?"Ella sighed and crossed her arms together. "Are you assuming that pregnant women can't go out and have fun anymore?"His e
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: The Surprise Party
Third Person's View The Blood Shadow pack has had a busy year. From Dalton and Ella's marriage to Hera and Arlo's, and now it was the birthday of the pack's most treasured child—Lyra. Each member was assigned a certain task. Some were assigned to cook food, the others with decorating the interior of the house, while others were just idle onlookers waiting for a task to be assigned to them. Dalton, on the other hand, was given the most important task of all—distracting Lyra while all the preparations were still coming through. You might be wondering why the pack needs to distract an incoming five-year-old on her birthday party, but Lyra has become much smarter than they think—maybe even smarter than Dalton. She picks up on things very easily, and even on her last birthday, she found her birthday presents before people could give them to her. Before the preparations commenced, Dalton woke Lyra up. To his surprise, Lyra was already up, leanin

Third Person's Point of ViewNot even a month after Dalton and Ella’s marriage had passed when Arlo and Hera announced that they were planning on getting married. Emery, feeling a fiery passion in her heart, took the initiative to plan everything regarding the wedding. With her supernatural powers combined with her unwavering will, she was able to finish the preparations in just one month. And today, the most awaited event finally came.Hera and Arlo are currently separated in two rooms. They haven't seen each other for two days now because Emery planned a Bachelor and Bachelorette party for each of them. Arlo whined and groaned to his mother for arranging the party because he couldn't bear not seeing Hera on the days leading to their marriage.Arlo spent the entire night thinking of his mate and wishing that she was by his side. Hera, on the other hand, was having the time of her life. They went to an exclusive resort where they just drank and dance
