Gianna

The morning of the tour came faster than I expected. One minute it was Tuesday, the next I was dragging my small suitcase down the stairs, half-awake, half-nervous, and fully convinced this trip would either reset my brain… or make everything worse.

Mum was already waiting in the car when I stepped outside. The trunk popped open automatically, and I tossed my bag inside before sliding into the passenger seat.

“Ready?” she asked, smiling like someone who’d had two cups of coffee already.

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   He loves me

    Gianna.The next two days passed in a blur.Not the slow kind of blur where hours drag their feet and refuse to move. No. These two days moved like someone had pressed fast-forward on my life.One moment I was sitting in class trying to copy down notes before the lecturer erased the board. The next moment I was rushing through the hallway with Rue and Cassie, arguing about decorations and playlists for the party. Then suddenly I was home at night with my books open, my brain struggling to keep up with the pile of work waiting for me.Exams were coming.Assignments were piling up.And somehow, in the middle of all that chaos, we were still planning Rue’s birthday.I barely had time to breathe.Every day felt like juggling five things at once. Study notes, group discussions, last-minute quizzes, planning messages in the group chat about the party, and the constant mental reminder that I had to keep everything balanced without letting anything crash.Still… It was nice.Busy meant less t

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   Surviving the truth

    Gianna.Two days later.I woke slowly, the way you do when sleep has been heavy but not entirely peaceful. My eyes stayed closed for a moment while the soft morning light warmed my face through the curtains. The room was quiet except for the faint hum of the air conditioner and rustling leaves.For a few seconds, my mind was blank.Then everything came rushing back.Alina.Her voice.Her smile.The words she had thrown at me like knives.My chest tightened slightly as the memory surfaced, but it didn’t hit the same way it had two days ago. The sharp panic that had clawed through me that night had dulled. It was still there, somewhere deep in the background, but it no longer swallowed me whole.Ivan’s voice replaced hers in my head.I choose you.My fingers tightened slightly around the blanket.That conversation had changed something inside me. Before it, my thoughts had been spinning endlessly, dragging me through every terrible possibility my mind could create. But after talking to

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   I choose you

    Gianna.I stayed rooted in that spot for what felt like hours, each word she had thrown at me replaying in my head like a broken recording that refused to stop.What if she was right?The thought didn’t knock politely. It barged in.All of a sudden everything started overlapping in my head. Moments. Glances. Memories. Even back to Roselyn. The way Ivan had spoken about her. The softness in his voice when he explained their past. What if Ivan didn’t even think of me that way? What if everything between us was just happening because of this bond we were forced into?If we’re so similar…If we have the same face…What makes me special?What makes me different?If she had been there first… would he have marked her instead?Would he have looked at her the way he looks at me?Or worse… does he look at her that way too and I’ve just been too blinded to see it?My stomach twisted.He chose Roselyn. He didn’t have to. There was no mark. No destiny. No ancient bond tying him to her throat. He

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   The bitter truth.

    Gianna.The word hit me like a physical shove. My ears rang.“You what?”“You heard me, Gianna.” Her lips curved, not soft, not hesitant. Sharp. “I love Ivan.”I let out a short laugh. It scraped out of my throat, brittle. “You’re lying. Okay, okay you got me. I actually fell for it, Alina.”Her smile didn’t shift.“Of course you’d think this is a joke.” Her head tilted, studying me like I was something under glass. “So what did you think, Gianna? Fate brought us together and I’d just forgive you for leaving me behind? Leaving me to suffer?” Her voice cracked, but her eyes stayed dry. “You left me with that monster.”“I had an accident!”“And I don’t fucking care!” she snapped.The force of it made me flinch.“Mum chose you! He vented his anger on me day and night!” Her chest rose sharply, breath sawing in and out. “And then,” she paused. Her eyes glistened but she refused to let the tears fall, like even her grief obeyed her pride. “He sold me. He sold me so men could use me for plea

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   Caught red-handed.

    Gianna.A few days later.I was lying on my bed, scrolling mindlessly through my phone, half reading posts, half thinking about nothing in particular, when a notification popped up.Alina.My thumb hovered for a second before I opened it.“Hey, let’s go out today. Watch a movie or something?”My eyes lit up instantly.A whole day with my sister? Just us?That… actually sounded nice. We hadn’t really hung out properly since everything happened. School had been exhausting, emotionally and academically. Maybe this was what we needed. Maybe this was her trying.“Okayyy,” I replied, unable to stop the small smile forming on my lips.I’ll come pick you up. Get ready soon.I practically tossed my phone aside and headed to shower.Why was I excited?Because this felt normal. Like something sisters did. No tension. No weird comments. No subtle digs.Just us.I dressed simply, did the basics, tied my hair back neatly, and headed downstairs once she texted that she was outside.“Gia! Where are y

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   The world can wait

    Gianna.By the time Alina had left, I felt a strange mix of relief and exhaustion. The school day had been long, but having Cassie and Rue around afterward helped me breathe again. We all left to grab something to eat, their teasing and laughter filling the air like a gentle distraction. I laughed too, genuinely at first, letting myself get swept into their jokes, the kind that had me clutching my sides, cheeks aching from smiling. For a moment, the weight of Alina’s words, her accusing tone from earlier, faded.But of course, it always came creeping back.Why was she acting so weird all of a sudden? Was it guilt? Jealousy? Or something deeper I didn’t understand yet? My chest tightened just thinking about it. She had always been unpredictable, but this… this felt deliberate. She was probing, testing, trying to unsettle me without even saying it outright. And it worked, just enough to make my thoughts spiral the second my mind went quiet.By the time I got home, a strange sense of

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   mid training

    Gianna. A few days later, I was bored out of my mind.Flat on my bed, staring at the ceiling, arms spread wide like I’d been pinned there by invisible hands. I hadn’t seen Ivan much at all this week. Hardly at all, actually. And that was… good. It was exactly what I wanted.At least, that’s what I

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   Gotcha!

    Gianna. Morning didn’t rush me awake. It crept in slowly, settling into my bones like it wasn’t sure I was ready to face the day.I stared at the ceiling for a long moment before sitting up, waiting for the familiar wave of dizziness or nausea to hit. It didn’t. My body felt weak, yes—but steadie

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   whispers

    Gianna. “Ivan…”The name slipped out of my lips before I even realized I was saying it. A whisper. Fragile. Like if I said it any louder, he might disappear.I looked up into familiar light blue eyes staring down at me, wide with something I hadn’t seen in a long time—concern. Real concern. Not ir

  • FATEBOUND: Mated to my step-brother   I've missed her

    Ivan. We haven’t spoken.Not since her outburst the other day — the way she looked at me like I was nothing, like I didn’t exist, like I didn’t matter. I told myself I didn’t care. I told myself her words meant nothing, that she was just angry, that she’d cool off eventually.But the truth?The id
