The One that He Claimed Novel – Read the full story in TasteNovel Download The One that He Claimed My mate is ready to enter behind me, for the whole pack to see. It’s an ancient tradition. The pack members cheer, their eyes hungry.
But all I feel is the burn of humiliation and fear. His hot breath brushes my ear as he whispers, “I won’t do this to you… not in front of them.” I gape at him in disbelief. “Now run!” he growls. My instincts take over. I run like crazy. Glancing back, I see him ready to fight the whole pack…. 
Chapter 1:
Birthday Sophie I walk downstairs, seeing that everyone is still buzzing about the party tonight. Everyone loves my sister. She’s sweet and kind and as her younger sister, I would know. She’s never been mean or catty to me or anyone. She’s one of the kindest women I’ve ever met. I just hope that her mate recognizes what a gem she is. I’m sure he will.
And if she’s lucky, he’ll be an Alpha. That will make her a Luna and she can show that pack all the kindness that she has shown ours. After sending trays of food up to my mother and sister and eating my own breakfast, I go in search of my father. Because I’m his daughter, I usually don’t knock on his office door unless I know he has company.
I lean my ear against the door and when I don’t hear anything, I open the door to find my father with his head in his hands. I can smell the scent of scotch and I see an empty glass beside him on the desk. “Dad, is everything okay?” I ask, worried. First my mother, now my father.
His head snaps up as he looks at me. “Soapy, I didn’t hear you come in,” he says, snatching the glass off his desk and putting it in the drawer along with the bottle sitting beside him. Soapy. It’s what my sister called me when I was born. My father loved it and never dropped the nickname, regardless of how many times my mother scolded him for using it.
“Why do you look so worried, Dad? Isn’t today a good day?” “Of course, sweetheart,” he says, standing to walk over to me and hugging me. My parents have always been very protective. No matter how many friends we had, we were never allowed to participate in their 18th birthday parties. That’s another reason I’m so excited for tonight. I’ve never actually seen anyone find their mate before.
Well, I have within the pack, but usually you can tell who will be mated to whom. They start spending time together before they turn 18, like they are feeling the bond before it completely forges. Then, on the 18th birthday of the youngest of the two, they yell ‘MATE’ and rush into each other’s arms. It’s very romantic.
