The Forbidden Mate complete novel free to read Wattpad

I stared at my friends in uncertainty. They were always up for new adventures, and usually it was fun, but this was different. It had nothing to do with the thunder sounding in the distance or the dark clouds gathering in the sky.

This had everything to do with the door that had appeared on the wall out of thin air while we were using an alley as a shortcut.

"Come one, Angel!" Nolan urged. "Don't be a chicken!"

Swallowing, I studied each of my friends. They were watching me expectantly, waiting for me to refuse the dare they had given me. I always chickened out because I wasn't like them.

"Just touch it," Marcy urged.

It sounded simple enough, but doors didn't just appear out of thin air.

We shouldn't be here; we shouldn't be touching stuff we knew nothing about.

"We don't have all night!"

I took another step towards the door and reached out with a trembling hand. The sooner I did what they wanted, the sooner we could leave.

It felt like wood instead of brick.

A gasp fell from my lips when the door swung open. I wasn't sure what I was expecting but it sure wasn't darkness. Despite the darkness, there was a slight breeze blowing that ruffled the loose strands of the hair framing my face.

"I wonder where it leads," Nolan muttered as he took a step closer.

"We shouldn't be doing this," I told them, but they didn't pay any attention to me.

I stood to the side and watched them as they took turns pushing a hand into the pitch blackness. Nothing chopped off their hands, but they complained about it being freezing.

I breathed a sigh of relieve when they stepped away from the door. They had their fun and nothing interesting was happening so we would be leaving.

Only that wasn't what happened.

Marcy gripped my arm and pulled me closer to the door.

"You're not afraid of the dark, are you?' Nolan questioned.

"W-what are you doing?"

They paid me no attention. Marcy continued to push me closer to the door and when I started fighting, Nolan was there to help.

"Let me go!"

"We're going on an adventure, Angel," someone called.

With one last push, I stumbled through the mysterious door. I instantly spun around only for them to push me back as the followed. We jumped when the door slammed shut behind us.

"Now what?" Marcy questioned.

"We see where this thing leads."

He took the first step and after some hesitation the others started to follow.

I turned around but the door we just came through was no longer there.

"It's." My words trailed off when I turned around and found none of my friends in front of me.

Panic hit. I hurried forward, arms held out in front of me, so I didn't bump into anything. It was so dark that I could even see my hands in front of my face, but I could hear them.

They were somewhere far in front of me.

"Wait for me!" I called.

I blinked and was suddenly greeted by a blinding light a few feet in front of me. My steps faltered as I hesitated. But then I hurried forward when the thought of my friends leaving me alone hit. For a moment I was floating, and then I was suddenly falling.

I screamed.

It was cut off abruptly when I hit the ground, and the air was knocked from my lungs.

I had no idea for how long I lay on the hard ground, trying to catch my breath, but eventually voices started to penetrate my mind.

"Looks like another one."

"These fucking humans just keep piling up, man."

"King Lucas really needs to do something about this before one of the crazy fuckers wanders out into the human world."

I whimpered, suddenly aware of the pain filling my body. The first thing that registered was the pounding headache.

"She's still alive."

"No use sending her back, by the look of things, she's going to die anyway. Let's take her to the club, I'm sure they could find use for her."
