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

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

Hera“I think it’s a great idea,” River said, almost jumping up in excitement.I, on the other hand, was on a completely different spectrum. I was concerned with the fact that I had to live with the people that I vowed to never get along with. “No,” I firmly said.River frowned. “No? Hera! Do you realize what just happened to us a couple of moments ago? Rogues chased us down, and there is a huge possibility that this won’t be the last time! Do you think it’ll be safe for us to go home when we both live alone?”Arlo’s eyes narrowed. “You live alone?”I looked away.“I thought you both lived together. This isn’t good. I’ve made up my mind. You’re staying here, and that’s final,” he commanded.“I can take care of myself,” I argued. “You saw what I did out there. I can protect myself just fine. If you could, then j
My Rival, My Mate Chapter 18: The Plan
ArloI woke up, expecting to see someone by my side, but to no avail. I just had one of the best sleep that I've had for a while now, and I was looking forward to seeing Hera when I opened my eyes.Based on yesterday’s events, I thought that we had built a new connection, but I have to reconsider that thought now. I guess some things really need more time to change.Although I didn’t want to get up, I forced myself to go to the bathroom and get ready for the day. I have to brief the pack leaders and warriors about the recent rogue sightings near our area.I walked towards the training grounds and saw them sparring against each other. The moment they felt my presence, they halted their movements and arranged themselves in an orderly manner.“Greetings, Alpha,” they said in unison while bowing in respect. My eyes searched the area for my Beta, Anderson, and saw him walking through the sea of warriors.We greeted each ot
