“Caleb, the vampire prince, marked me as the person he wants to take as mate!” I damn near shout to my best friend, Robin. We are sitting on my bed and watching a comedy, but I’ve made it all about me. “Can you believe his audacity? And get this - can you guess what happened next? My parents LAUGHED! Like, actually thought it was funny!” I throw up my hands in disbelief as I talk and shake my head slowly. “How DARE they?”
“I-I don’t understand why they would find it funny,” Robin stammers in a careful tone and pushes his glasses further up his nose. “Aren’t... aren’t they worried?”
I shrug. “I guess not. They just said that once my real mate shows up, I don’t have to worry about Caleb. That he can’t magically make me his mate or something.”
“I see,” Robin fidgets beside me. Norm
