HARPER'S POV
I woke up this morning, feeling a sense of accomplishment wash over me. It's been a few weeks since I started my "Third Wheel" business, and I never could have imagined how successful it would become. I remember the day I came up with the idea, feeling like a third wheel in my own love life, and thinking about how I could help others in the supernatural community avoid the same feeling. And now, here I am, running a successful business, helping others and feeling like I'm making a difference in the world.
I roll over in bed and reach for my phone, scrolling through the messages from my satisfied clients. I couldn't help but smile as I read through their words of gratitude, some even calling me a lifesaver. It's amazing how much can change in such a short amount of time, and I can't help but feel proud of myself for taking a chance and starting my own business.
But as I lay in bed, the reality of my success also brings with it a sense of responsibility and pressure. I never imagined how much work and dedication it would take to keep the business running smoothly. And as much as I love helping others, I can't help but wonder how long I can keep this up. But I shake off the thoughts, reminding myself that I've come too far to let my doubts get the best of me. I will continue to work hard, and make sure my clients are satisfied and happy. And who knows, maybe one day I'll even find love myself. But for now, I'll just enjoy the ride and see where this journey takes me.

A few months ago
One of my first clients was a werewolf named Jake. He was a friend of a friend of a friend.
He was a timid, quiet guy who had been struggling to find someone to date. He was always nervous around others, and had a hard time opening up. It didn't help matters that his pack was constantly setting him up. He had been on a few dates, but they never seemed to go well. He was always so nervous that he would ruin the date.
Jake heard about my service through a friend and decided to give it a try. He contacted me and we set up a meeting to discuss his situation. During our meeting, Jake told me about his struggles with dating and how he was always so nervous around others. He explained that he wanted to find someone to date, but he didn't know how to make it happen.
I listened to Jake and I understood where he was coming from. I knew that I could help him, so I agreed to take him on as a client. We set up a plan and I agreed to accompany him on his next date.
The date was with a young werewolf named Ara. She was a sweet, kind girl who seemed to like Jake a lot. The date was going well, but Jake was still nervous and unsure of himself. That's where I came in. I stepped in and pretended to be Jake's girlfriend. I acted like we had a history together and that we were in a committed relationship.
Ara was surprised but she understood that Jake was not interested in her romantically, and Jake was able to end the date politely and smoothly. Jake was grateful and thanked me for my help. He said that it was the best date he had ever been on and that he felt more confident than ever before.
It was a huge success. It was a great feeling to know that I had helped someone else to find the confidence they needed to navigate the dating scene.
Before I knew it, I was constantly busy with clients, each one with their own unique problem and backstory. I was able to help werewolves, witches, and even a few succubi who were tired of dealing with unwanted advances. It was a lot of work, but I loved every minute of it.
As I sat there, looking at my overflowing inbox, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in what I had accomplished. I had turned my powers and my passion into something that was making a real difference in the lives of the supernatural community. And for the first time, I felt like I truly belonged.
