Scarred by fate
Book one of The Fatebound Trilogy.
Born under a prophecy. Raised in a nightmare. Chosen by the Moon Goddess to save them all.
Zahra has spent her life starved, isolated, and hated — the unwanted daughter of her pack’s Beta. When her father finally snaps, attacking her with silver and wolfsbane, Zahra’s body breaks… but something inside her doesn’t.
Her wolf.
Pushed to the edge of death, Zahra’s first shift is violent and unconscious — triggered not by age, but by the desperate need to survive. And when the white fur surfaces, everything changes.
Born under the rare Pink Moon, Zahra isn’t just a survivor. She’s the girl at the center of a forgotten prophecy — the one destined to bring back the extinct Lycans and unite the supernatural world against an ancient evil rising from the shadows.
But Zahra’s no chosen princess. She's bruised, underestimated, and out for freedom, not fame. Now with a powerful wolf at her side, and a future tied to four unknown mates, she must train harder, dig deeper, and outfight anyone who thinks they can control her.
Because destiny isn’t given. It’s claimed in blood and battle.
Fierce, emotionally charged, and full of slow-burn legacy and bite, Zahra’s story is for anyone who’s ever been overlooked — and dared to rise anyway.

Chapter: Epilogue Continued. Max's POVThe next morning, after another sleepless night, I follow my dad into the main meeting room. The air smells like coffee and grief. King James sits at the head of the table. Beta Nicholas to his right. Tobias and Aiden beside him. Lucas, Xander, and Zach opposite. A councilman I do not recognise flips through a leather folder. A house maid sets coffee pots and plates of biscuits in the centre and retreats from the room.everyone nods in acknowledgment of our arrival, but No one speaks. I pour myself a cup of coffee and settle into my chair to wait.Andrew arrives a few minutes later. He looks hollowed out. it's clear, he's not slept, over the last four days He looks like he's lost weight and He moves like his bones ache. I have heard the stories. When a wolf loses a mate, sometimes the wolf dies of grief. Sometimes the human goes with them. Sometimes what remains is a shell. It is too early to know which road Andrew is on, but dad said Aether is silent. If the silence holds fo

Chapter: Epilogue ContinuedMax's POVTobias pats my shoulder. "Come on, man. Let’s head outside. The others will be here soon."I tip back the rest of the beer, feel it hit an empty stomach, and stand. In the bedroom I shrug into my suit jacket. It is tight across the chest but it holds. Tobias clocks it and smirks. I huff a laugh. First one in days. It feels strange in my throat.Outside, people stream from the packhouse to the woods along a lantern‑lit path. I keep my head down and my hands in my pockets. The clearing is already thick with smell of smoke from the last two days. Four pyres stand in the centre: Seb. Luna Anne. Zoe. Rebecca. The pack forms a ring at the edge of the trees, lining up back into the cover of the trees as the numbers swell, bodies pressed close.Tobias and I move to the front where a small platform has been raised. Andrew is there. Dad has an arm

Chapter: Epilogue Continued.Max's POVThe packhouse feels hollow. Black ribbons hang from banisters. Voices stay low, as if volume might break something that is already cracked. We lost nearly two hundred. Everyone here can name at least one of them.I take a coffee and a muffin from the dining hall because that is what a functioning person does. The coffee tastes burnt. The muffin turns to paste after two bites. I toss the rest and climb to my father’s old office. It is mine now, apparently. The title sits in the room like an unwelcome guest.I work because work is something I can control. Eli’s rotation notes. Ralph’s border reports. I sign where I have to and flag what I cannot decide yet. My phone buzzes beside my elbow.Tobias: I will not ask how you are. I am sure the answer is o

Chapter: Epilogue Max's POVI stare at the ceiling while daylight crawls across it, thin and grey. Another night with no sleep. My head is a hive and I am the only thing it stings.I have not slept since my best friend was murdered in front of me. Since I was not where I should have been. My Alpha. I let him down. I was busy watching Xander's back, worrying about his cousin, instead of standing where Sebastian needed me. Now our pack has no future, and that sits in my chest like broken glass.My stomach rolls again. I swallow against bile and breathe through it until the nausea backs off. The last three days I have thrown up more than I have in ten years. Every time I replay the fight, or my thoughts drift to Xander, every time I reach the same point where I chose the wrong alpha to flank, my gut empties. Coward’s body. I grit my teeth until my jaw aches.Yesterday’s meeting will not stop playing in my mind. Alpha Lucas at the head of the table, face drawn, voice steady like a blade laid flat.“Max. Hu

Chapter: Chapter 317Xander's POVMy vision blurs. The air splits with two howls, a long, broken, mournful note. One after the other, blending together, a harmony of misery.Seb, and Uncle Drew.The sound chills me to the marrow. Its the kind of agony that isn’t just heard, it’s felt. Every wolf freezes for half a heartbeat. Max staggers beside me as the bond to his Luna snaps. Around us, every Silver Dawn warrior falters, some nearly dropping where they stand. The heart of their pack has just been snuffed out.I scan the battlefield, frantic. Then I see him. Sphinx!He stumbles upright, then launches forward. He’s not fighting anymore. He’s destroying. A whirlwind of teeth and fury, blood caking his muzzle, eyes blazing feral. He’s gone berserk, tearing through rogues with a savagery I’ve never seen from him before. His unit try to cover him, but he breaks through their line, chasing the rogues too far, too fast.Medus surges away from me, toward his Alpha, desperate to protect him. To be beside him in h

Chapter: Chapter 316Xander's POVZach’s voice is tight, even through the link.‘I’m on my way, I’m in the pack house!’ I yell back through the link.Max and I barely make it through the back doors before we shift, Medus and Atlas hitting the ground in sync. The scene before us makes my blood run cold.Carnage. Pure fucking carnage.Wolves are everywhere. Rogues flood the garden, tearing through decorations and tables as if they were nothing. They’re not the ragged, half-starved rogues I’ve seen before. They’re lean, powerful, and moving like a trained unit. The stench gives them away — foul, rotting, wrong.Medus and Atlas surge forward side by side, our training taking over. The garden is a ruin, blood splattered across the grass, screams mixing with snarls and the sickening sound of flesh tearing. Wolves crash into each other in a blur of fur and teeth.Silver Dawn’s warriors are arriving now, charging straight into the fray, but the rogues keep pouring from the treeline like a tide of shadows.The sme

Marked by fate
Book Two of the Fatebound Trilogy
Born of prophecy. Forged in pain. Chosen by the Moon Goddess—whether she wants it or not.
After surviving her father’s brutality and discovering the truth of the white wolf within her, Zahra Larkin thought the worst was behind her. But evil doesn’t die—it waits.
Beyond the borders of the supernatural kingdoms, a dark god stirs. Monvar, Lord of Shadows, feeds on fear and faithlessness, twisting hearts and turning packs against one another. As belief in the Moon Goddess fades, his power grows, and Zahra’s very existence becomes both a beacon of hope and a target for destruction.
When Zahra is taken by Monvar’s followers, her world shatters again. Tortured, broken, and isolated, she must find a way to survive long enough to escape—and to face what she’s becoming. Because the blood of Selene runs in her veins, and if she falls, the Goddess’s light could die with her.
Haunted by trauma and hunted by darkness, Zahra must learn to trust the four fated mates bound to her soul. Together they hold the key to awakening her Lycan power—and saving the supernatural world from annihilation.
But love and destiny demand sacrifice.
And the girl who was once marked by fate must now decide whether to embrace her divine power… or let the shadows win.

Chapter: Chapter 128Zahra's POVHalfway along, I notice a small side passage I’ve never paid attention to before. Edwardo turns down it without comment and stops at a door at the end.He knocks once, then pushes it open into a small studio.There’s a reclining chair in the centre of the room, a tray of equipment beside it, and artwork covering the walls. By the window sits a small, wiry-haired woman with glasses, a sketchbook balanced on her knee. Her arms and hands are completely covered in tattoos. I stare despite myself.They are beautiful. An intricate network of runes and tribal symbols twines over her skin, layered and seamless. Her right hand is so detailed it almost looks like a black lace glove. I wonder how long it took to get it done.“Private Larkin, this is Sage, our tattoo artist.”“Hi,” I say, giving her a small nod.“Sage, Private Larkin is our newest recruit. Her tattoo needs to be discreet, please, but otherwise proceed as usual.” Edwardo gives me a brief nod, Sage a small smile, and th

Chapter: Chapter 127Zahra's POVIt’s been a fucking laugh...NOT!!But I’ve managed to keep Zanthe from shifting all day, and the techniques we’ve learned have helped me manage the pain, or at least stay functional through it.One of the other things we worked on today was a different kind of meld. Not the side-by-side version we usually use, but still a mind merge. It’s complicated, but basically they want us to stop my eyes from changing when we connect. They want it to be less obvious that we have that ability, in case we’re captured. It feels like a step backwards in our training, but I get why they need it.Zanthe hates it though. She can still share her emotions and senses with me, but she doesn’t receive the same flow of information from me in return. Considering how much stronger her senses are, I don’t think it’s a major problem, but she seems to feel it’s unfair somehow.When Blake finally calls an end to the day, I feel fucking awful. I’m sticky and crusted in blood. Everything has technically

Chapter: Chapter 126Zahra's POVDinner last night was weird. I felt like I was under a microscope the whole time. But the strangest part wasn’t everyone staring, it was the way Tobias standing up for me made me feel. After everything, after the way he stormed into the pool party trying to have me pulled off the course, I’d just assumed he was against me being there. Then he defended me. He even sounded proud I’d completed it. I’m so fucking confused.Because instead of being angry, it made me feel warm and safe again, the way I always used to feel around him. I didn’t think when I saw Thor rising and his anger taking hold. I just reached out and put my hand on his. It was instinct, pure reflex, but it worked. He calmed down immediately, and the feeling of touching him again… yeah. Just so fucking confusing.Alice didn’t say another word to me for the rest of the night, but Lotty, Kayla, Jasmine, Emily and Yara were all great fun. I really like the new mates. I can see why the moon goddess paired them wit

Chapter: Chapter 125Tobias's POV“Is your course going well?” I ask, trying to keep this awkward, stilted conversation alive for more than three seconds at a time.There’s a very slight tightening around her eyes when I mention the course, barely there if you do not know her, but I see it. She still nods. “Yes, thank you. It is.”Another shut down. Thor whines in my head, wounded.‘Try again,’ he urges.‘With what, exactly? The weather?’“How is Zanthe?” I ask instead.That gets a reaction.Zahra’s mouth softens. A small smile touches her lips and her right eye shifts colour, darkening, and I know she has melded with Zanthe. The ease of it, the speed, impresses me. She’s always been good, but this is something else. Goddess, this woman is incredible.“I’m fine, thank you, Tobias. How is Thor?” Zanthe asks through her, her tone a little rougher than Zahra’s usual voice.The effect on my wolf is immediate.Thor surges forward so hard and fast I almost lose my grip on myself completely. He doesn’t meld with

Chapter: Chapter 124Tobias's POVI feel much more settled after training. Xander, Max, Brant and even Lincoln all gave me a solid workout. I’m impressed with the progress Lincoln and his unit have made. They’re definitely on a par with the others now. It’s an impressive improvement in three years. I need to talk to Lincoln and my father about when the best time for him to challenge his own father for the pack might be. I think he’s hoping he can finish his studies at AC before taking over, but now that he’s ready, he should be prepared at all times.I head back to my apartment with Zahra on my mind, as usual. She’s all I think about these days. What’s she doing? What’s she thinking? Does her leg still hurt? Is she eating enough? How’s her training going? Aiden said the course has been uneventful, so I’m assuming that with her bone density issue they’re making her take it easy. I wonder when she’ll go back to Blood Moon. I wonder how I’m supposed to start winning her back. How do I even start talking to h

Chapter: Chapter 123Tobias's POVI sigh with relief as we pass the two-hour mark from home. We are still too far away to mind link, but I can feel Zahra again. Even with our bond fractured and raw, Thor and I both ease the second we cross back into range of her presence. The tension in my chest loosens, like someone has finally taken their hand off my throat.The last few days have been hell.We had to attend the ascension ceremony for the new Alpha of the Obsidian Fang pack in the south. Marcus and Jasper came with me, and I left Aiden to handle business at home in my place. The original plan was for Marcus to accompany me alone, but Jasper decided at the last minute to join us. I know why. They are all worried Thor is going to lose it again, and Marcus would not have been able to hold me on his own if that happened.The drive back has been quiet. I know both of them are desperate to get back to their mates.Yara, my new Gamma female, is strong and fierce but also kind. She comes from a very powerful Ga
