Marked By Fate
Selene has spent her entire life as an outcast—a wolfless omega at the bottom of the Silver Claw Pack. Beaten down, used, and treated like nothing, she stopped dreaming of freedom a long time ago. Until the night she ran. With no pack and nowhere to go, she crosses into Black Oak territory, knowing it could mean her death. The Black Oak wolves are brutal, their Alpha even more so. But instead of being torn apart, she’s given a chance—a chance to fight, to survive, to become something more than the weak girl everyone saw her as. For the first time, she’s in control of her own fate. Until everything shifts again. Two months after her eighteenth birthday, the impossible happens—her wolf awakens. But the real shock comes in the dining hall, when she locks eyes with the last person she ever expected. Alpha Black. Feared. Ruthless. Untouchable. And now, her mate. But Selene has spent too long being unwanted, too long fighting for herself. She doesn’t know how to trust this bond—or the man fate has tied her to. Because belonging to the most powerful Alpha in the region doesn’t mean safety. It might just mean the most dangerous thing of all… giving someone the power to break her.

Chapter: chapter 7My room was exactly how I’d left it. Small. Dim. Mine.The bed creaked as I dropped my bag onto it. I headed straight for the bathroom, already pulling my shirt over my head as I walked. Rhea had made herself at home on my mattress, sitting cross-legged with a piece of paper in her hands.“Look!” she said, holding up her drawing. “This is the T-Rex! I gave him fangs like a wolf.”I peeked from the bathroom door and grinned. “He’s terrifying. You’re getting too good at this.”“I know,” she beamed.While I showered, she kept talking—bouncing between her field trip stories, her opinion on cafeteria pizza (gross), and which classmate she thought might secretly be a witch.I listened. Mostly. Threw in a “yeah?” and “no way” when needed.She didn’t seem to notice—or didn’t care—that I was half-tuned in.She just wanted me there. That was enough.Dinner was quiet.Just the three of us at the table. Rhea chattered between bites, Lilian added in soft encouragement, and I stayed mostly silent,

Chapter: Chapter 6“I know,” she said, smiling again. “Everyone knows who you are.”Of course they did.The wolfless omega. The one who got laughed at in history class. The one Ava targeted when she was bored. I was a punchline before anyone even knew my name.She kept trying to talk—small stuff. Asked how long I’d been at Silver Claw High. If the classes were hard. What the teachers were like. Normal conversation. I answered with nods, short words. Nothing more. I didn’t ask her anything in return.I didn’t want to.It’s not that she seemed like a bad person. She didn’t. She was probably nice. But nice didn’t mean safe. And I didn’t do friends. Not anymore.Because every time someone tried to be kind, I asked myself the same question: Is it real, or is it pity?I didn’t want pity. I wasn’t a charity project. If someone wanted to be near me just to feel better about themselves, they could go find a different cause.So I gave Lissa the bare minimum. A name. A nod. Eye contact only when necessary. And eve

Chapter: Chapter 5They laughed harder.A couple of them whispered my name with fake concern, others mimicked the way I stood, like I was some circus act. Ava’s snort cut through the chaos like a blade, and of course—of course—she stood up, all smooth grace and smug confidence.“The Alpha bond is the final element of legitimacy,” she said, like she was reciting from the godsdamned textbook. “A wolf without a mate cannot ascend the Alpha throne. Without that sacred bond, the leadership is considered unstable, unfulfilled, and vulnerable to challenge. That’s why tradition insists the Alpha be mated before coronation.”A beat of silence.Then applause.Actual applause.I wanted to sink into the floor.“Very good, Ava,” the teacher said, smiling like she’d just solved world hunger. “Thank you.”She gave a slight bow before sitting back down, shooting me a quick smirk over her shoulder. Victory, sealed.I sat back down slowly, resisting the urge to facepalm so hard I knocked myself out. Stupid. I hadn’t hear

Chapter: Chapter 4Ava’s been parading around for weeks, telling anyone who’ll listen that she’s going to be Leon’s mate. That it’s fate. That it’s written in the stars. No one questions it. Not unless they want to end up with a bloody lip and a black eye.Because Ava doesn’t just talk. She acts. She’s ambushed girls in the hallways, clawed faces, pulled hair, smashed heads into lockers—all for the crime of daring to glance at Leon for too long.And what does the pack do?Nothing.No one says a damn thing. No punishment Nor warnings Because Ava is untouchable. Because she’s the Beta’s daughter.Not that any of it has anything to do with me. I’m not stupid. Leon doesn’t even know I exist. I’m invisible to him. Just another shadow in the halls, another nameless omega he’ll never speak to, never look at.And that’s fine.Really.Because the last thing I want is Ava’s eyes on me for real. Right now, I’m just a speck. Not worth her time. But if she ever thought I was a threat… even by mistake…Yeah. No thank

Chapter: Chapter 3I just prayed—silently, desperately—that the teacher would walk in and give me something else to focus on.Not because I thought he’d protect me. That wasn’t his job, apparently.He’d seen me get cornered before. Heard the things they said. And he'd done nothing.But if he came in and started droning on about pack history or wolf law or whatever bullshit lecture he had planned today, maybe I could pretend, just for a little while, that I wasn’t here. That I was somewhere else.Anywhere else.I shifted in my seat, arms crossed tightly over my chest. My skin itched with sweat and bleach and embarrassment. I could smell myself—no one else probably noticed, but I did. I smelled like work. Like submission. Like omega.And that was blood in the water.Ava leaned backward from her desk in front of me, just enough to whisper over her shoulder, “You should sit outside, you know. You reek.”I stared down at the graffiti scratched into my desk. Someone had carved a wolf’s head there once, deep a

Chapter: Chapter 2He walked toward me with that swagger all the ranked wolves seemed born with. Twenty. Built. Dead eyes. The future Beta and current pain in my ass.“Still no wolf?” he asked, like it was a joke that never got old.I didn’t answer. He didn’t care about answers.He leaned in, close enough for me to smell the arrogance on him. “Don’t worry,” he whispered, “maybe someone’ll throw you a bone on your birthday. Or just put you down.”Laughter followed. His, and the two other idiots who hung off his shoulders like accessories.I walked away. Didn’t flinch. Didn’t cry. Not in front of them.I waited until I was in the bathroom, stall locked, fingers gripping my backpack so hard it hurt.Three days, I reminded myself. Three more days. Eighteen.If my wolf didn’t come by then... I didn’t know what would happen. But I had a feeling I wouldn’t survive it.Not in this pack.The other omegas showed up not long after me, all of us dragging ourselves through the cold like ghosts that never left the pa
