In a supernatural world, two all star football players find their mate.
They call her a freak, mixed, or unnatural. Most known hybrids have general abilities but not Promise.
She is unique, an outcast, a mix between a light witch, sylph, and fey...

"It's going to be alright, Promise." Chaz tells me, but I'm not so sure about that. After yesterdays fiasco with Jaye claiming to be my mate, I have been tied up in knots!
I knew people were cruel but I never thought someone could be that intentionally cruel. The embarrassment I suffered kept me awake most of the night.
Entering the building everyone stops and stares in our direction. This is what I've been dreading all along. Now the rumors will be flying all around campus about me and my supposed mate. Like I wasn't talked about enough already.
"I'm not sure about that." My confidence is waning, I'm sick and damn tired of feeling this way. So insecure about everything I do, I use to be carefree and happy. Now thanks to the knowledge of what I am, I'm nothing but. Jacob didn't help either, with the callous way he dumped me; showing others that I wasn't worth the time, made people think that I apparently wasn't worth their time either. I'm so sick of this shit. I just want to be normal, well at least as normal as one like me can be.
"Are you going to check." Chaz ask, breaking me away from my morbid thoughts. Glancing over to him, I see that he's pointing to the roster list of the members who has made into the squad. I totally forget all about the tryouts. My mind has been playing havoc on me, more than I should let it be.
Shaking my head at him, I'm way to nervous to see if I actually made it. He huffs out at me, walking to check the list for me. Watching him as his eyes search for my name, there's a girl beside him who starts crying heavily. She walks away distraught, I guess she didn't make the squad making me nervously indecisive, I don't know if I even want to know if I made it or not.
To some this may seem a bit dramatic but to me I have the overwhelming feeling that this decision could either make or break me. With my luck it would be the latter.
"Promise." Chaz stretches out my name, his face is an unreadable mask, my anxiety begins to heighten.
"You made it!" Stunned for a moment, the excitement inside me rises to a level of pure enlightenment. I made it! I really fucking made it!
Jumping into Chazs arms wrapping my arms around his neck, I simply don't care who sees us. This moment is to joyous for me to even give good rats ass about what people think.
"I made it! I made it!" Chaz swirls me around, his excitement equals my own. Hopefully now things will finally start to look up. One can only hope that is.
He sits me on feet, smiles spread across both our faces, my spirits are picking up expediently.
"You made it! I knew you would!" Glancing over my shoulder, I see Kayleen with her mate Riley, my smile quickly drops from my face. Remembering my last encounter with Riley. He stands directly behind Kayleen, rubbing his hand on the back of his neck nervously.
Chaz takes a step in front of me, blocking Riley's image out my view. Kayleen frowns at Chaz. It's a strange feeling knowing Kayleen and I use to be such close friends just a day ago. I don't want to see her this way. As someone who is so distant, it breaks my heart nearly in two.
