All Chapters of Their Human Mate : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Hello All. Welcome to my new book. Before you start, don't forget to join my Facebook packhouse called The Black Alder/Accalia packhouse for updates and giveaways. Enjoy!Do you want to hear a story about a queen who instantly found true love and lived happily ever after? Well, tough shit. This isn't that type of story. This is my story. My life, and how it all got turned upside down before I could come to know what love really was, but before I can get to the juicy parts of my life, I need to start at the beginning. I need you to really understand just how fucked up my life really was before I met.....them! "The true stars of the show", one of them yelled from one of the rooms. I paused the video I was recording." Shut up, I'm recording" I yelled back, to which two pairs of laughs followed. Rolling my eyes, I continued.Let me take you back to the beginning......................EmberI'm in bed and it's dark. Two pairs of hands are roaming all over me. I couldn't see who they were

EmberI keep thinking back to that day. One year ago, today, the events with Ryder that changed my life happened. Ryder kept all of his promises. Charli came by faithfully every day to monitor my mother. They had gotten really close over the last year and I was glad my mother had someone she could bond with. Her relationship with Rosalee was strained already. As commanded, I trained his staff and now I was leading them. I got to know more about Ryder as time went on. His family controlled every part of northern Florida, and their main location was in Tallahassee. He told me that he was raised to lead his family in this lifestyle, and that he had no choice. I almost felt sorry for him. Ryder lived in a huge mansion. It was a beautiful, all-white, three-story mansion trimmed with blue. There were apartments nearby, where he said some of his extended family lived. At least the ones who didn't want to live in the mansion. When I had first arrived, everyone looked at me as if they had seen

"I guess this is the part of the story where I come in", I tell the camera. "Like Ember, I'll also take you back to the beginning. Seth and I's beginning. I think you will understand more about just how complicated things were when Ember came into the fold." Carter MoonstoneI could feel my wolf stir. Something was up. I only wish sometimes I was able to talk to it, but that was a thing of fantasy books. In reality, our beasts are just an extension of us. We control our beasts, but sometimes it does feel like they have a mind of their own. I guess that's just our wolf nature. Let me give you more insight into who we are. My best friend, Seth Lightwood and I, were currently going over paperwork for our pack. We are both alphas of the Woodstone pack, just as we are co-owners of the number one restaurant in all Florida, Moonlight. Yes, you heard that right. Co-alphas and co-managers. Crazy, right? I know that when you read in fantasy novels, typically, a pack only has one alpha, and t

Ember I was far enough into Miami to be able to take a pause now. I parked behind a Walmart I saw, far away from any other people. I was alone. My mom was dead at the very hands of my boyfriend. He must have been a real menace, the way her body was in pieces like that. All the blood. The fucking blood. I put my hands and head on the steering wheel. I should never have accepted that damn job in the first place. I probably would have been killed, but it is a hell of a lot better than seeing my mother's body in pieces. No one should have to see that. I know Ryder would be looking to blame me for all of this. I know his ways. Blame others for the love he cost. The reason I was so attracted to him at one point, I will never know. My heart is so broken. Fucking broken, but now is not the time for mourning. My mom didn't raise a weak bitch who cried around all day. I will mourn her when I get that chance, but first things first. I need to find a home. I took the phone Lamonte gave me and

Ember Carter was the one who took my hand and shook it. I was honestly kind of scared to look him in the eye, but I wanted to be direct. The goal was still to be impressive and leave a lasting impression. I could have sworn when he touched me, it was like a jolt of electricity going right through me. It was almost exhilarating. He smiled at me, and I felt as shy as ever, though shy was not my personality. Who was this guy? " My name is Carter Moonstone. This is my partner, Seth Lightwood", he explained. We didn't even realize we were still shaking each other's hands. It was like neither of us wanted to pull away. "Ahem. We don't have all day, Miss Stanford", Seth said. His tone was grumpy, deep, and somehow still sexy. Carter let go of my hand and found his seat next to Seth. I sat down in my chair and pushed my portfolio at them. Seth just eyed me before finally taking the file and scanning it. I looked at Carter. I felt like I would get further with him, but a part of me wanted t
