Authors Note: Before I start this chapter,  I would just like to say this is the second book I've ever published and it feels amazing to start a new project ! This is fantasy book where my character will be mated to a God( The God of revenge and Punishment) but unlike my first novel this book will be different in the sense of it will be much more darker . It will contain strong language, action, M rated scenes and the men will be a lot more possessive, dominate and in some cases more animal than man.

Lastly, I have no real age limit for this book but I would suggest you be at least 14? There's no point me saying be 18 and over when most kids are getting up to Lord knows what by the time they are around 13/14 anyway. No negative comments will be allowed here as well as any racism, discrimination, homophobia etc... As I'm all about positive vibes only and don't forget to vote and comment ( Especially comment as I love them!)

Without Further Ado - Welcome to MY KING:

"Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, and riches take wings. Only one thing endures and that is character"
Horace Greeley.

Everyone wanted to be them and if you didn't want to be them then you wanted to be friends with them and if you didn't want to be friends with them then you most certainly wanted to date them.

Them being the most popular girls in school ; Francesca Di Vinci, Ashley Montez , my twin sister Sapphire Roux and Me. Although, I say me very loosely as nobody actually wanted to be me, be friends with me or date me unless it was to get closer to the girls but I didn't mind - I was used to it.

If I wasn't Sapphires twin I doubt Francesca or Ashley would even look at me , never mind actually talk to me despite us all being friends since we were three. Nevertheless, they were nice girls who made me feel welcome but I wasn't one of them. I couldn't radiate confidence or look effortlessly beautiful, I could barely string a sentence together without getting some sort of anxiety and stuttering like a fool , yet , they were patient and didn't tease me.

I was grateful to them. 

Ashley was the one known for being a musical genius, she could play every instrument known to mankind and had a voice that sounded like wind chimes. She was ridiculously beautiful due to her Spanish background and had sum kissed bronze skin, buttery blond hair and forest green eyes with a charming mega white smile that had every boy swooning and every girl instantly feeling insecure.

Francesca , or Frankie as she preferred to be known as , was the Italian tomboy who was amazing at almost every sport,  was absolutely hilarious,  was rarely without a smile and was liked by everyone . She hardly tried with her appearance but still managed to look flawless with no effort with her large unique aqua blue eyes that were framed by naturally long thick dark lashes, light brown hair with natural ringlets and a beauty spot above her lip.

Then there was my twin sister Sapphire who was known for being the Queen of Gossip as well as being Captain of the Cheerleading Squad and an absolute maths Whizz . I was known as her shy younger (by 12minutes )sister who was just about passing maths but could go through a whole book in less than 24hours- hardly anything to write home about.

I supposed we were identical as Sapphire and I both had very light coffee coloured skin due to our half French and half Jamaican background with; Chestnut eyes, long curly dark brown hair with natural light brown streaks but I had dimples and my hair was shorter by a few inches. Plus, I wore glasses and my body wasn't as toned due to my lack of physical exercise.

Right now, I was almost hid behind my sisters giggling frame, as she flirted with some boy on the Football team , waiting patiently for her to finish up so I could get home after my rather boring and mundane day at school . I shifted from one foot to the other and let out a sigh of frustration, it was freezing cold and I wanted to go home- now.

"....But I better go, I think Jasmine is getting impatient" Giggled Sapphire looking up at the boy from between her lashes.

I fought the urge to roll my eyes because it wasn't like she needed to flirt to get his attention, he would like her regardless. She had a personality, unlike me.

The boy glanced at me , his face looking annoyed but he nodded and whispered something in her ear which made her giggle,  before striding off with a grin on his face .

"Sorry Jas but I couldn't just leave, could I ? I mean Hunter Green wanted to speak to me , can you believe it?" Sapphire gushed once we stepped into our red Audi which we shared as a present for our 17th Birthday last year.

"Yes, I can" I sighed , pressing my cheek carefully on the cool window as we sped out the parking lot and home where I could finally relax without feeling like everyone was judging me.

"Don't be so boring Jasmine" Muttered Sapphire putting on her CD and blasting out some Cheesy girl pop as she sung along to it , matching the keys and notes almost perfectly.

Can't help it I thought to myself bitterly, not everyone can be as exciting as you unfortunately.

"Can you believe we have to go camping for the whole weekend and we can't even drop out because it goes towards 30% of our final grade?! It's so unfair and dangerous, there's been some sightings of huge animals too. Like bigger than horses apparently but Mr. Boughten said we'll be by the trail and safe but if I even break a nail I'm suing " Sapphire chattered, tapping her nail in beat to Nicki Minajs verse of Truffle Butter that was now playing .

"It's awful" I agreed after she looked at me expecting an answer. 

And it was awful, it was awful that I was about to go camping with 28 other students who would only talk to me so they could talk to my two best friends and my sister. It was awful that once again I was about to be reminded of how insignificant I was and it was awful that I was about to camp with dangerous beast roaming around.

When we got home , our mother Eden Roux, immediately greeted us looking prim and proper as usual donned in a expensive trouser suit with a hair not out of place with a big grin plastered across her face. Of course it was fake, it was the same routine since we started middle school ; greet us, pretend to be interest about our day before locking herself in her study with a bottle of wine gossiping on the phone to her friends while secretly being unhappy at the fact dad was cheating on her .

I couldn't feel any remorse for her though because she was only with him for his money, nothing more and nothing less and when dad was home they hardly exchanged any words. It was like living in a house full of strangers and I wasn't particularly close to any of them as they both hardly paid me any attention, Sapphire was the golden child.

"How was school ?" Mom asked , pouring us our daily glass of milk and giving us each two freshly baked cookies each , just like she had since we were six.

I let Sapphire ramble on and complain about the camping trip and gush about Hunter whilst I thoughtfully stared out the kitchen window,  feeling weirdly anxious about the trip. It was like I had a strange feeling about it and I couldn't shake it off, it was as if my instincts were telling me something big was going to happen.

Good or Bad? I was sure but I supposed I would find out by Friday night.

Authors Note: First Chapter completed! I know it may seem slightly boring but I want you to get to know Jasmine as a person first before we jump straight into meeting her mate and stuff. I'm hoping for at least 10 votes and 10 comments before I start Chapter two so get busy !
