Dante:
It all started with a look.
Of course, my life would take a turn for the worst in the form of a cliché. All I did was look up from my book and BAM! I’m face to face with my Mate. There was no denying it; the connection I felt with him was instantaneous. There was nothing else it could’ve been. There was only one problem though, David, my Mate, is human.
It’s official. My life is hell.
Not that it wasn’t hell before now, but at least then there was a small fraction of a chance that I could be happy. In fact, I was happy before; at least as close to happy as I was going to get. Carlisle and I were getting along better and my father was dead. What else could I have asked for? I was perfectly content with my life as it was.
But no.
Life wasn’t about to let me be content. Instead of leaving me alone for once it screwed me over yet again by giving me a human Mate. A Human! As if life for a human wasn’t hard enough, now this poor innocent guy is Mated with a monster.
Wonderful.
Sure, technically Carlisle and I aren’t monsters; we’re Element Spirits, Protectors of the world from the REAL monsters out there. If it hadn’t been for our kind and my family’s bloodline the world would’ve succumbed to the forces of evil and all things inhuman and supernatural a long time ago. But when have little details like that ever mattered to a human? If it’s not quote on quote “Normal” then it’s a threat that needs to be destroyed.
Enough of that though. At the moment I am literally face to face with the being that is supposed to be mine for all eternity and I am so focused on how horrible this situation is it takes me a few moments to realize that he’s talking to me.
“Miss, are you alright?” he asks me. I want to scream. No! I am NOT all right, you ignorant and useless human!
Damn that Carlisle! If he had just did the research himself yesterday I wouldn’t be in this mess!
