I Am Me (Book Two): Fate Is Wrong

Chapter 3: Seeing Him

And finally Jay Ryan as our Valerius Valentine. I hope my choices are good. Who do you picture these roles were after reading about their characters. I'm stopping at Valerius until I finish the first book. I at least wanted you guys to get to know the main characters to see if you'd give this a chance? Enough rambling!

Valerius' POV

3 years ago

I'm 18 now. My wolf and I have gotten acquainted properly beyond nights hat come off fuzzy, not uncommon among shifters since our connection to our wolves normally come around the age of 18. So, I have been here at Mallory High for my senior year. I've been at this town my whole damn life and I don't think I can ever grow tired of it. I'm pretty much a loner and would like a quiet life with as least distractions as possible. Hopefully my mate is just that, quiet and contained. Although I may not mind a distraction every so often. 

"Hey, congrats. You full grown Gamma bud! How's it feel? Feel powerful? Complete? Come on man I need the deets." My friend Elias says. He's a cool dude. A bit precocious guy, connecting with his wolf enough to find his mate early. He's an excitable guy, never gettin' over the childish energy. Good for him. Good luck to his mate though, cuz they will have their hands full. Speaking of which, I wonder what mine will be like. Will they be dominant? Will they be gross? I'm no near freak, my mom says as much, but I would like some standards to follow. Hopefully my mate meets them. 

My, I wonder what is in for lunch. It smells real good. Like honey and cinnamon rolls and- 'Mine'. That was not my stomach. My wolf senses my mate! Where? I can't-

"Hahahahaha!!!!! Slow down, you're gonna drop me!"

"Never have once and never will!"

I see a brunette boy with brown eyes riding atop the back of a muscular raven-haired boy with blue eyes. While the brunette isn't as built as me and blue eyes over there, his features speak of all man, yet with a pinch of a soft touch. And even though he isn't as built as me, his muscular torso is still noticeable. His skin is flawless, his lips are pink, and he is all mine. With a smile on my face, I make a step to walk over , but abruptly stop as my new rival hugs him from behind in an affectionate manner. Okay, they are close, I can live wi-

"Come on. People already say we are pretty much boyfriends, we don't need to feed them any ammunition."

"I can't help it, you're so cute. And would it really be so bad? No guys, no competition. My best friend! No one else!"

"Hahaha, Okay, that's enough, dude. You made your point, I'm adorable. Speaking of relationships, Eddie, do you ever dream about your True Mate?"

Now that has got my attention. I want to see how deep their in love and what I could do to get this bastard out of his life so that he can enter mine. Or at the very least take two steps back because that is way to touchy-feely  when it comes to him giving such attention to anyone but me. I mean, I don't exactly want him gone, I'd rather not devastate my mate with the idea of leaving his best friend behind, but there needs to be boundaries.

"No. I don't think about them." The big one says with a tension in him. Oh yeah, this guy is in it deep. Anyone would go Gaga over their fated mate like I am right now. Like my mate is right now with a wistful daydream he is in, but the minute my mate said something about, this fool is stiffer than the stale bread they give us from the cafeteria. And because of this common instinct among shifters, my mate turns to his friend with a shocked look. Have they really not talked about this with each other if they're so close? I have a right to be shocked because I just overheard everything for the first time, but his best friends revelation is news to him? 

"Really? But why? Don't you wish for that day when you meet them for the first time? To know that they will take care of you and you the other way around?" He says dreamily. He's so naive to the intentions of this guy. Okay wolf, down boy. We gotta at least try to be nice to his friend. Or else are mate will reject us for having words with blue over there.
