Sarah's POV

My chest rose and fell in sharp bursts.

The ritual had left me trembling, sweat sticking to my skin as though I’d been dragged through fire.

Alpha Derek had let me perform the ritual right there in the loan shark’s office.

I watched it all—every scream, every slash of claws. Staff members were torn apart with terrifying precision, bodies hitting the ground one after another.

It was all so vivid, like I was standing in the middle of it. But the killer… the killer was nothing more than a shadow. A ghost. A figure blurred in darkness. No face. No form. Just a presence that reeked of death.

I had no idea how it was possible. The spellbook had promised visions tied to the scene, a chance to witness the truth as if I stood there myself. And yet, the truth had slipped through my fingers like smoke.

I could only see the slaughter. Not the hand behind it.

Alpha Derek and his sons stood before me—outside the circle—their eyes burning holes into my skin.

His words—“Your life hangs on

  • Bound by a Dangerous Fate to my Student: The Prophecy   Chapter Ninety-three

    AUTHOR'S POVThe pack gathering at the village square was in full swing near the central bonfire—a weekly tradition where pack members socialised and sparred to strengthen pack bonds.Lancelot counted at least forty pack members present.He walked slowly through the crowd, his hands shoved into his pockets.But his eyes were sharp, scanning the faces around him until they landed on the one he was looking for.Marcus.The Gamma of the pack.He was tall and broad-shouldered, with a thick scar running down the left side of his jaw.His hair was dark and cropped short, and his eyes glowed faintly gold even in human form.He had been making Lancelot's life a living hell for years, always ready with a cutting remark about Lancelot’s “uselessness”, his “pathetic human frailty”, and how he was “dead weight the pack dragged along out of pity."Just last month, Marcus had shoved right past Lancelot in this same spot, sending Lancelot crashing to the ground in front of everyone.Marcus had stood

  • Bound by a Dangerous Fate to my Student: The Prophecy   Chapter Ninety-two

    ANDERSON'S POV“What?” The word escaped my lips in a disbelieving whisper, as though my ears had twisted Lancelot’s words into something impossible.Luckily for him, he had answers to the revelation I'd heard from the students, although they offered no comfort whatsoever.He’d told me everything about last night—even details I didn’t know, like the ring that was bound with magic which Sarah couldn't take off from her finger and was blocking her powers.We were inside the storage room by the back stairwell.I had told him to meet me here.The only light came from a small window near the ceiling.He’d explained how he shadowed Alpha Derek all night without being noticed, following my instructions to dig up information.That’s when he overheard Alpha Derek talking to Alaric, revealing the real reason he’d let her live.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Lancelot added that was how he'd found out about her attempt to escape before she was caught, when a warrior came to report it to Alpha Derek.I turned awa

  • Bound by a Dangerous Fate to my Student: The Prophecy   Chapter Ninety-one

    ANDERSON'S POVThe hallway buzzed with noise as students whispered and gossiped about how Alpha Derek had spared Sarah because she was Alaric's mate, as Lucas walked next to me.“But how?” Another voice chimed in from a group leaning against the wall."How could someone like her be mated to the future Alpha? She’s not even a werewolf. She’s a curse.”A guy snorted. “Yeah, exactly. She’s an outcast. A murderer. How is the Moon Goddess supposed to pair someone like that with Alaric? It doesn’t make sense.”"Or maybe Alaric's being punished for something. Imagine being bound to her for life."“Maybe it’s a mistake,” someone else muttered."Or maybe Alpha Derek’s lying.”“Why would he lie about something like that?”“I don't know, but it's weird."Their words faded as we moved past them.Lucas chuckled.“Seems like she’s really gotten herself into a big mess this time,” he said, shaking his head. “I mean, being mated to Alaric? That’s either the best thing that could happen to her… or the

  • Bound by a Dangerous Fate to my Student: The Prophecy   Chapter Ninety

    SARAH'S POVThe darkness pressed against me while my body arched everywhere—sharp, burning pain that radiated from virtually every part of my body.I couldn’t see.Couldn’t breathe properly.I tried to shift to ease the pressure on my left side where something felt as though it was broken.But the moment I did, metal bit into my skin, because I was still caged.It was small—barely four feet wide and just tall enough that I couldn’t stand.I was curled on my side, my knees pulled to my chest, my hands shackled in front of me.The chains connecting my wrists were short, barely six inches long, forcing my arms into an awkward position.My ankles were bound the same way.The floor of the cage was uneven and rough, digging into my hip and shoulder.My dress—the beautiful emerald gown they’d dressed me in—was torn now, stained with dirt and damp with sweat from running in the forest thirty minutes ago.My hair had fallen out of its braid, tangled and stuck to my neck and face.I’d tried to

  • Bound by a Dangerous Fate to my Student: The Prophecy   Chapter Eighty-nine

    SARAH'S POVI stood in front of a full-length mirror, barely recognising the reflection staring back at me.The dress they’d put me in was deep emerald green. It hugged my waist before flowing down to the floor in smooth, elegant waves.The fabric shimmered faintly under the light, embroidered with silver thread that traced patterns along the bodice and sleeves.It was beautiful.Around my neck sat a silver choker embedded with tiny moonstones.My hair had been pulled back into a braid, woven with thin ribbons that matched the dress.I looked like royalty.Like a Luna.But I felt like a prisoner dressed for her own funeral.“Let’s go,” the maid said flatly, not bothering to meet my eyes.She turned and walked toward the door without waiting for me to respond.I followed silently, my bare feet barely making a sound against the cold stone floor.She walked ahead with stiff shoulders and a quick pace while the hallways stretched endlessly before us.She hadn’t said a single word to me si

  • Bound by a Dangerous Fate to my Student: The Prophecy   Chapter Eighty-eight

    Author's POVAfter leaving Sarah in the hallway, Alaric headed to his father’s room.Once there, he sat down in the chair across from his father.“Father,” he started, choosing his words carefully, “I need to understand something.”Alpha Derek took a slow sip from his glass, keeping his eyes on his son as Alaric asked why he’d forgiven Sarah.“I don’t get it. Why did you call her guilty in front of everyone when you believed she was involved in all those killings?" Alaric added.A low chuckle escaped Alpha Derek’s throat as he set his glass down with a soft clink.“Forgive?” he repeated, his tone dripping with amusement.He leaned back in his chair, a cold smile playing on his lips.“You think I forgave her?”Alaric’s brows furrowed. “You stopped the execution. You lied about her being my mate. If that’s not forgiveness, then—”“It’s not,” Alpha Derek cut him off sharply.His smile vanished, replaced by something far colder.“I didn’t forgive her, Alaric. Forgiveness is for the weak.
