I wish I could say that everything is okay in my life, but simply put... It's not. I'm so done, ready to give up, let go of my mortality, end it all. The noose is already tied and hung expertly over a tree branch of the oak in my back yard. The note is in place on my desk. The only light left on in my bedroom is an old lamp I stole from an antique store last summer with the boy I loved. He left. And so did my heart... I look at my phone one last time, noose hanging loosely around my neck as I sit on the branch I will soon be hanging from. A message lights up my dully lit screen, or more like, a message request. I almost ignore the message, but I decide, what the hell? One last conversation won't change anything. I say hello, and so does he... And he begins to tell me the reasons he wants to kill himself. I laugh inwardly a little bit, thinking how ironic it is... I haven't even told him what I was planning on doing. Yet, I find myself trying to talk him out of it, knowing damn well I'm in the same mental state as he is... I didn't know that I was talking to my savior that night... But I know now, and so does he... Because we saved each other.

Today's the day I'm supposed to find my mate. He was the most gorgeous guy with black hair and blue eyes that was the color of the ocean. He smiled at me and I smiled back. Extremely nervous, he came up to me and grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me into a nearby janitors closet. I didn't even have a chance to say anything because his lips were suddenly on mine. I slowly pushed him off me, feeling like we're going too fast. "Shouldn't we at least find out some stuff about each other?" I asked him. "Why? It's not like I care about you." Those words shattered my heart. "S-so you're going to reject me?" He thought for a moment. "No, I think I'll keep you as a sex toy." Before I could say anything else, he ripped off my shirt and bit down on my shoulder. Meet Lexi. A nobody. She hopes that once she finds her mate, he'll be sweet and kind. But once she found out who her actual mate was, was like a slap to the face for her. Meet Brad. He can only be described in one word: an *sshole. He plays around with girls and doesn't care about anyone but himself. Will Brad finally settle down to love Lexi? Will Lexi forever hate him for what he did? Read and find out .
