FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Not everyone survives being broken
Gianna.The seer didn’t look at him.Her eyes were still on me.“I know why you came.”A pause.Then—“It has already begun.”My brows pulled together before I could stop it.“What has?” I asked.Her head tilted slightly.Not confused.Not surprised.Just… interested.“You feel it,” she said.Not a question.A statement.My fingers twitched faintly at my sides.And right on cue—that pressure behind my eyes pulsed again.Sharp.Quick.Gone before I could fully react.I swallowed.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”Her lips curved faintly.Not a smile.Something quieter.Something that made it feel like she knew exactly what I was trying not to say.“You will.”Silence settled again.Heavier now.Thicker.Like the room itself was listening.Ivan stepped forward slightly beside me.“We were told there’s a way to break it,” he said, his voice steady. Controlled.Her gaze finally shifted to him.Slow.Measured.“There is.”The words didn’t feel like relief.They didn’t open anythin
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Ready?
Gianna.The moment his lips left mine, the world didn’t rush back in the way I expected it to.It didn’t crash. Didn’t flood.It just… hovered.Like everything around me had paused mid-breath, waiting. Not for him. Not for anything outside of me.For me.Ivan’s hand was still at my waist, his thumb brushing lightly against the fabric of my shirt in slow, absent movements. Not impatient. Not demanding. Just… there. Like he needed that small contact to stay grounded.Or maybe that was me.I didn’t move.Because moving meant thinking.And thinking meant going back to it.Break the mate bond.The words didn’t hit like a punch. Not this time.They settled.Slow. Heavy. Unavoidable.My chest tightened, but it wasn’t sharp panic. It wasn’t that drowning feeling I was used to when things got too real.This was quieter.Deeper.Like something inside me had stopped reacting… and started listening instead.I stepped back slightly.Not away from him.Just enough to breathe.His hand slipped from
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother The cost of the curse.
Gianna.The silence that followed my question felt heavier than the words that came before it.Ivan didn’t speak.Marcus didn’t either.And that… that was worse.Because silence only ever shows up when the truth is already too close to the surface.My pulse slowed in a strange way. Not calm. Just focused. Like my body was preparing for impact before my mind caught up.“I asked a question,” I said again, softer this time, but sharper underneath.Ivan shifted slightly.I noticed it immediately.That small movement he always made when he was trying to decide between honesty and protection.Marcus finally let out a breath.“Gianna—”“No,” I cut in quickly, my voice firmer now. “Don’t do that. Don’t start with my name like it’s supposed to calm me down.”Something flickered across Marcus’s face. Not anger. More like… understanding he didn’t want to have.Ivan stepped forward half a step.“Gia, it’s not what you think—”“That’s exactly what people say when it is what I think.”My chest tigh
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother What haven't you told me?
Gianna.The walk back to my cabin felt longer than it actually was.Not because the distance had changed… but because my steps didn’t feel like they belonged to me anymore. Each one landed a fraction too heavy, a fraction too late, like I was following my own body instead of controlling it.I tightened my grip on the door handle when I got there.Just for a second.Breathing in.Out.Then I pushed it open.The cabin was quiet.Too quiet.The kind of quiet that didn’t feel peaceful… just empty. Like the walls were waiting for me to fill the silence with thoughts I didn’t want to think.I shut the door behind me and leaned against it for a moment, letting my head fall back lightly.My eyes closed.And immediately—That pressure again.Stronger now.It pulsed behind my eyes, not sharp, not painful enough to drop me to my knees… but deep. Like something pressing outward from inside my skull, testing the edges.I exhaled slowly.“This is getting ridiculous,” I muttered under my breath.But
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Loosing control.
Gianna.Morning in the community never really felt like morning.It felt like the forest was stretching awake in layers, slow and watchful, like even the trees were deciding whether they trusted the day yet. The air outside my cabin was cool, sharp in my lungs in a way that made me more aware of every breath I took.I sat on the edge of my bed for a moment longer than necessary.That same pressure was there again.Behind my eyes.Not painful enough to scream for attention… but persistent enough that I couldn’t ignore it either. It had started sometime last night before I finally forced myself to sleep, like something had settled inside my skull and decided it wasn’t leaving anytime soon.My fingers lifted slowly, pressing lightly against my temple.I tilted my head slightly like that might reset something.It didn’t.It stayed.Waiting.Like it was studying me instead of hurting me.I exhaled through my nose, slow and controlled.“Probably just training fatigue,” I muttered, but even
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Would we be able to find our way back to each other?
Ivan.Morning in the community never really felt like morning.It felt like the world hadn’t fully decided who it wanted to be yet. Like even the air was standing there, waiting for permission to either soften… or turn sharp.I stood at the edge of the training grounds, watching the warriors move in steady formation. Boots hitting packed earth in rhythm. Swords cutting through air with clean precision. From far away, everything looked controlled. Almost peaceful.From far away.“Alpha.”Kade’s voice pulled me back.My beta.He wasn’t just assigned to me. He was inherited into it. His father had been my father’s beta, and somehow that line had just… continued like it was written somewhere long before we were born. But Kade wasn’t just legacy. He was choice too. My choice. Because somewhere between growing up beside him and surviving too many things together, he’d become the only person I didn’t have to question.Still, I didn’t look at him immediately.“Report,” I said.He stepped besi
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother The girl in my dreams
Gianna.I woke up with my heart racing, sweat prickling along my skin. The remnants of the dream clung to me like fog. I could see it all so clearly—the old house, the smell of wood and rain, and the girl beside me. She was laughing, running through the halls like we were playing some game only we
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother I shouldn't have distracted you
Gianna.I had already gotten dressed and made my way to the training room for combat.The building loomed ahead of me, solid and cold, the air inside carrying the faint smell of sweat, stone, and something metallic. Training always left a weight in my chest, not fear exactly, but awareness. Like my
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother the space between us
Gianna.He flicks the cigarette over the edge of the rooftop like it means nothing.It spins once before disappearing into the dark below.His eyes never leave the guy who’d been holding it.Ivan’s posture is loose, almost lazy, hands relaxed at his sides—but there’s something coiled beneath it. So
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother A reminder of what monsters people you love could turn to
Gianna. I opened my eyes before my alarm went off, staring at the ceiling like it might give me answers if I stared long enough. My body felt… fine. Too fine. The kind of fine that lied. My muscles were loose, relaxed in a way they hadn’t been in days, and that annoyed me more than the headache I
