Chapter 1
Stiles always knew finding a mate would be hard for him.
Sure he was still young, seventeen and all but, damn it, this was prime time! Over 87% of people met their mates at his age! Some of his friends had even found theirs and it was just so not fair, okay?
Still though, he knew he wasn't exactly ... Desirable, as such.
The problem he had was that he didn't quite fit the attractive scale for either of the species.
His fur was dark, a muddy brown and tipped with a smokey grey, he wasn't bright or sleek like the foxes wanted. His fur was too thick and his tail was too bushy, he could frickin' wrap it right around his waist and use it as a damn pillow for gods sake. And his ears were too big, giving away his emotions way too easily.
He wasn't like Lydia with fire-truck red fur, perfectly smooth and shiny, or anything like Allison with her honey brown and gold tipped fur.
He was...darker.
He was also too small for the wolves, to breakable with small sharp fangs and large doe eyes, he wasn't powerful enough for a mate. Even as an omega he was...well no one wanted all up in this.
Their loss, totally. Still though.
He let out a small sigh, kicking open the door to his jeep and reaching for his backpack, turning to smile as Scott bounded up to him.
Scott was a perfect Alpha wolf, all muscle and dark fur with big fangs and strong claws.
He was a puppy though, secretly, and girls just kind of melted around him. He'd hate him if the guy wasn't his best friend and a complete baby.
"Stiles!"
"Sup, Scott?"
"Hey, so I got stuck with Coach first thing, what have you got today?"
"Mrs. Blake for English."
"That's harsh dude, we're still meeting up for bro time at lunch though right?"
"If by bro time you mean I get to listen to you sigh blissfully about how perfect Isaac Lahey's curls are instead of watching you try your luck with him. Yeah."
He grinned when Scott full on pouted, flinging his arm around his best friend’s shoulders with a teasing growl, heading up the steps to the main entrance.
"Nah dude, I'm joking. Seriously though, you should just go for it, if you two sneak anymore glances I'm labeling you Ninja couple."
He smiled a little when Scott snorted, nudging his arm with his fist shyly, drawing away to bump at Scott's shoulder affectionately, brushing against the wolf’s tail with his own.
"He looks at me?"
"Like all the time. Makes me feel invisible, I’m kind of offended."
