The Soul Mate Chronicles
Volume I: The soul mates of Bon Temps Louisiana
Written by: Sookie Stackhouse
Introduction
Every being has a mate. Whether you be a human, vampire, werewolf, or any other supernatural being, you have a mate somewhere out there in the world. Not everyone will find their mates, for humans are less open to things such as soul mates and being able to sense them.
Supernaturals are more likely to find their mates because they are more open to the mysteries of the world. The beings that are the most adept at finding their mates are those that are the most primal and animal of the supernatural world: vampires, weres, and shifters. Prized for their great senses of smell, these beings find it the easiest to sense out their mates.
Popular misconceptions of soul mates lead most to believe that you can only find your soul mate amongst your own species, but this is not true at all. Many vampires have found their destined mates in werewolves and humans. And many humans have found themselves mated to any type of supernatural being. Many fairies have been mated to other beings, but have been far less likely to accept it.
The most likely beings to find their mates are vampires because they live such a long time. In many cases a being will not find their destined mate because they were born at different times in history and their souls will continue to search through several reincarnations. Only once a soul has found its true mate will they be able to truly be at peace and move on when they die. Because vampires can live so long, they can find their mates without having to deal with reincarnation, and they are wiser than other creatures and therefore more likely to accept a mate bond.
In this book, it is my goal to relate how different beings were able to find and accept their mates in my hometown. It is my hopes that this book will encourage many more beings to accept their true mates even though they may be vastly different from yourself. I will even relate my own story of how I met my mate and accepted him many years ago.
