FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother When the cracks show.
Gianna.For the first time in days, my chest didn’t feel unbearably heavy.Not okay. Definitely not okay.But lighter.Like somebody had loosened a rope around my ribs just enough for me to breathe properly again.Rue and I were okay.Well… not fully okay.There were still cracks there. Awkwardness too. But it wasn’t broken anymore and honestly? That mattered more than I realized.I didn’t know how much losing her had been affecting me until I got her back.It felt strange.Good strange.The kind that sat quietly in your chest and made everything hurt a little less.I walked beside Cassie toward the parking lot after our conversation, the afternoon sun warming lightly against my skin while students flooded around us noisily.“You seem more cheerful,” Cassie said casually.I gasped softly.“So you’re saying I’ve been looking dead?”“I’m serious,” she continued, eyeing me suspiciously. “You don’t look like you’re two seconds away from a mental breakdown anymore.”“That’s growth.”“I’m c
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Finding our way back
Gianna.School felt unbearably loud today.Not loud in an actual way.Nobody was screaming. Nobody was causing chaos in the hallway. Conversations blurred together normally around me, lockers slammed shut, people laughed too hard at things that probably weren’t even funny.Normal.Everything was painfully normal.And somehow that made me feel worse.I know what you're thinking. Why does that make me feel worse?Because it seemed like the world kept moving anyway.People still worried about assignments. About failed quizzes. About who was dating who. Someone somewhere was probably crying over a situationship while I was actively trying not to spiral over the possibility of dying or turning rogue.And the craziest part?I still had to sit here and pretend my life wasn’t quietly falling apart.I still had to blend into normal when nothing about my life felt normal anymore.My head leaned back lightly against the chair as the lecturer continued talking from the front of the room, his voic
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother I really marked him
Gianna.Ivan exhaled softly before pressing one quick kiss against my forehead.“Stay here,” he murmured.“Absolutely not.”A faint breath of amusement escaped him despite everything.Then he turned and walked toward the door.Marcus's eyes landed on Ivan's neck.Silence.Heavy silence.I watched Marcus’s expression change in real time.Confusion.Realization.Then disbelief.“What have you done?”My chest tightened instantly.Ivan barely reacted.“You make it sound criminal.”Marcus looked genuinely frustrated now.“Ivan.”He dragged a hand down his face slowly.“She marked you?”The words made heat rush straight to my face.God.Hearing someone else say it out loud made it feel even more intimate somehow.Like the mark suddenly became real in an entirely different way.Not just ours anymore.Visible.Noticeable.Something other people could see and understand.Ivan didn’t hesitate.“Yes.”Marcus stared at him for a second longer like he was waiting for him to realize the problem on
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother You're stuck with me now.
Gianna.My fingers stayed curled lightly against the back of his neck.Still hesitant. Still nervous.But no longer uncertain.Because this wasn’t fate forcing my hand.This was me choosing him back.The room had gone quiet again.Not awkwardly quiet.Heavy quiet.The kind that made every breath feel louder.Ivan didn’t rush me. That somehow made it worse.Because if he pushed, maybe this would feel easier. Less terrifying. Less real.But he just stood there patiently, his hands resting carefully against my waist like he was giving me room to decide even now.Even after asking.My eyes flicked toward his neck briefly.Marking.God.My heartbeat sped up again.I knew what it meant for wolves. Everyone did.It wasn’t casual. It wasn’t temporary. It wasn’t something you took back after emotions settled.It meant mine.Not ownership in the cruel sense.Recognition.Trust so deep it became instinct.And suddenly I became painfully aware of the fact that Ivan was standing here willingly ask
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Mark me.
Gianna.“I can’t question fate, sis.”Alina’s lips curved slightly after she said it. Not enough to count as a smile. Just enough to make something cold crawl beneath my skin.Then she walked away.Just like that.Calm.Like she hadn’t just admitted she wanted me dead.I stood there staring after her for a second too long, my fingers tightening around the wine glass so hard I thought it might crack.The ceremony around me continued anyway.Music still played softly somewhere behind me. People still talked. Laughed. Moved through the glowing lights and flickering bonfires like the world hadn’t just tilted sideways beneath my feet.But suddenly all the sounds felt distant.Muted.My chest tightened slowly.Not explosive anger. Not heartbreak.Something quieter.Something worse.Because deep down…a part of me had already known.Alina stopped being my sister a long time ago.I think I just never wanted to say it out loud.My throat tightened painfully.Images flashed through my mind too
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother The place beside him
Gianna.The Hall of Crescent Flames.That’s what the elders called it.A ceremonial gathering held before an heir officially stepped fully into Alphahood. Part celebration. Part presentation. Part warning.Because according to pack tradition, the night wasn’t only about honoring the future Alpha.It was about seeing the future beside him too.I hated that already.“You’re staring at the dress like it personally insulted your ancestors,” mum said from behind me.I looked up through the mirror slowly.“I think it did.”A faint laugh slipped from her lips as she walked closer, fingers smoothing invisible wrinkles from my shoulder like she needed something to do with her hands.The dress itself wasn’t bad.Actually… it was beautiful.Dark silver fabric clung softly around my waist before flowing down to the floor in slow waves. The sleeves rested slightly off my shoulders, exposing my collarbones and the curve of my neck in a way that suddenly made me too aware of my own skin.Too aware o
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Already leaning towards him
Gianna. The atmosphere changed the moment I crossed into the city. It wasn’t dramatic. No sign, no sudden shift in scenery. Just a feeling. Like the air itself remembered me. Memories pressed in from every direction, uninvited and relentless. It felt strange being here again, but also painfully
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Invalidating feelings
Gianna.I woke up with tears already sliding down my temples, soaking into the pillow before I even understood why I was crying. My chest felt tight, like someone had wrapped a band around my ribs and kept pulling. Another memory. Or fragments of one. Faces that were now easily recognizable. Voice
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Alina
Gianna.And just like that, it was the weekend.I’d been having small flashbacks, which annoyed the shit out of me because I was eager to literally get my life back. I felt like a foreigner in my own memory. It was scary, standing behind a closed door, knowing if it opened I might not exactly like
FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother Marked
Gianna. His lips… God, his lips were fire.The moment Ivan’s mouth claimed mine again, everything inside me snapped. There was no ceiling, no walls, no logic — just heat and want and a maddening hunger that clawed up my chest like it wanted to devour me from the inside out.His hand slid around my
