Dear Life - Zoey.Stark (books to read as a couple txt) 📗

Dear life,
Can you please suck less? It would help me out a lot.
Love, True
Yeah that’s my name True I got my name from my mother Modesty she was an Angel but she died when I was young. My dad is Haven he is a werewolf he died along with my mother it is sad but that is how life is for me and exactly why I don’t get close with many people. I live with my parents who adopted me but they are like my parents, because I don’t have many memories of my real parents but I do know that I got my long black curly hair from my mother and my piercing icy blues eyes from my father. That is all I know though because that is all my adoption parents know, but they do not know what they were the only reason I know is because of the note I just got from them on my 18th birthday which is today. For you I will start when I first woke up on my birthday because on that day the rest of my life changed for forever……..

 I woke up to a knock at my door and in came my adoption parents. My dad had a cake in one hand and my mother had a huge box with holes in it. I was so ready for my birthday because last year I got my car and this year I was hoping I finally got a kitten. I wanted one because in three days I am going off to a college and that is the one thing I wanted to take with me.
“Happy birthday!” They both yelled.
“Thank you.” I said as I blew out my candles. My mom handed me my gift and when I opened it, it had this really small kitten in it that was all black with little white paws and it nose was like a little pink button it was so cute. Under the kitten was a huge orange envelope I picked the kitten up carefully and then got the orange envelope. I looked at it and it had my name neatly written on it. I looked up at my parents and look at them confused.
“Sweetheart, your birth parents told use to give you this on your 18th birthday and that is what we are doing.” My mother said.
“Sweetie, me and your mother have to leave off seeing your aunt Sue, she is very sick. Before we left we wanted to give you, your gift and cake and tell you happy birthday. We will be back in three days.” My dad said.
“That’s okay tell her I hope she feels better.” I said.
“Bye, we love you.” My mother said as they walked out of my room. Okay, so what should I do first, maybe I should name my kitten. It was a girl so I decided on the name Priscilla it’s a big name but I liked it.
“Priscilla, what you think we should do all by ourselves?” I asked her, she was scratching at the orange envelope, so I picked it up and opened it. It was a really long letter, with about three pictures of people I didn’t recognized one because it was me when I was little with some boy. I looked at the letter it said:
Dear True,
Hey sweetie it’s your birth mother. I have a lot to tell you. And if I am correct you will get this on your 18th birthday. I need to tell you that I and your father aren’t human. I am an Angel and your father is a Werewolf, so that makes you half and half. In three days if I am correct you are going to a college, well at that school you will meet you mate River he is that boy in the picture that you are in. He will most likely be the one you will marry, his parents are really good friends of ours they will help you through the transition. But for the most of it you will not be leaving where you live now after school is let out. You will be leaving with River’s parents which are one of the other pictures we sent you. You probably already know the other one is of me and your father. I’m so sorry that I could not be there on your 18th birthday or for all the birthdays I missed. I hope you understand that I and your father love you very much and if we could be there right now we would be. For now relax on your birthday. Don’t worry about your adoption parents they are already know that you won’t be coming back to their home after school. Your life is going to change for the better trust me. Sweetie I want you to always know that me and your father will be watching after you through all your adventures that are soon to come. I hope you will go to the park today because that’s where your cousin Ash is at today. We want you to meet him he has known your mate River for a very long time. Just like you and River. Everything will soon all work out for you don’t worry. Soon enough you will understand why we are telling you this now of all the times. It’s because you’re getting to the age that you shift and that shift is going to be huge because you’re not just shifting into a werewolf you’re also shifting into an Angel. You’re all grown up sweetie and it hurts to know that I am not there with you right now but I want you to know we really tried to be there we really did. I love you.
Love, Mom and Dad
I cried at the end I read three times and it still hurt. Ash looks just like my father kind of. River was a cute kid he had these really pretty brown eyes they look almost golden, he had brown hair, and he was very olive colored skin like me and my father. I was going to go meet Ash I had decided on that finally after reading it a fourth time. I got up took a hot shower and got dressed; I had to hurry so I picked up my cat and went out the door. (Yes I am taking my kitten it is a young kitten I am not about to leave it). I hurry to my red dodge charger that I got last year. I love this car. I put the kitten in the passenger seat and put on my seat belt I look for my purse that I always hide in the back. When I found it I put the kitten safely in it while making sure the kitten is safe and can breathe I turn the key in the ignition and the engine comes alive. When I get on close I start to rethink the whole thing but that is a thing about me I over think sometimes so I just stopped thinking. When I get there I smell someone so familiar and all of a sudden I smelt home. I found Asher by a tree first thing he said oh look at how big you gotten my cousin is all grown up. I laughed and hugged him. I have seen him before though he resembles my dad kind of the only difference is that Asher has blue gray eyes and my dad had blue green eyes. I have met him before and I also have seen him a dream too, don’t ask. He seems pretty cool and he seems like he would be a great big brother too.
“Okay, you know that body guard your adoption parents are hiring, well yeah that’s going to be me.” He said.
“Cool. I got some questions though.” I said.
“Ask a way.” He said while leaning against the tree.
“Well first, when will I meet River?” I asked. I wanted to meet him even though this is a weird set up I really actually want to meet him.
“When he gets back on Monday.” He said.
“When will I shift?” I asked.
“When your wolf inside is ready.” He said.
“What does my mate mean?” I asked. Okay, yes I know what mating means for animals but it is just weird if that is what we have to do. Don’t you think they better give us it least a week to know each other I know that. It is weird though if you really think about it. I don’t know maybe it’s just weird to me.
“It’s kind of like love at first sight. You know when you find that one person that’s for you. That when you see them everybody else seems to fade away and you know that’s the one for you. It is amazing feeling you will never forget that moment when you meet that person you’ll remember every single detail.” He said. It’s like he has been through it. I had asked him a lot of other questions besides that. After a while I just decided maybe I should go home I was really tired and it was like 8 something at night which is weird because I really wasn’t ready to go to bed at this time. Oh well I am tired so yeah. I told Asher that I will see him on Sunday which is the day I will be at the School which I am now kind of excited about but after I leave on Sunday my life will change and I know this for a fact. But just knowing that kind of scares me.
That night I had a terrible dream it was scary. I didn’t know what to think of it. I was all alone in a dark room all of a sudden a dark figure was in the door way, I was kind of freaked out. There was a window in the mysterious room I was in. The moon was full which isn’t always good. I looked back and the dark figure was coming closer and closer and soon as I was going to figure out who this dark figure was I woke up. It kind of made me sad to think that I couldn’t figure out who it was. I was so ready to get out of here for some weird reason.
