AMARA’S POV

After work, I dragged myself into my car, completely exhausted. I started the engine and let out a small breath of relief, just a short drive home, I told myself. Then I could rest. A few minutes into the drive, the engine coughed once. Then again.

And then it died completely. I tried starting it again, but nothing. The headlights flickered weakly and then dimmed until the whole road ahead disappeared into darkness. I looked around. Tall trees surrounded both sides of the road. The forest felt darker than usual, too still, too cold. As I stepped out, a strange feeling crawled up my spine. The hairs on my arms stood up. I kept glancing over my shoulder even though I couldn’t explain why. I tried to breathe normally, but each breath felt tight. Something wasn’t right. I could feel it deep inside my chest.

My steps slowed as I walked deeper along the path. The last bit of sky behind the tall branches faded, leaving everything dim. I kept telling myself I just needed to reach

  • FATED TO HIS DARKNESS    CHAPTER 11: VOICE NOT MY OWN

    AMARA'S POV The moment the door swung open, my hands trembled. I almost dropped the book behind my back. Samuel Keller, my stepfather stood there, blocking the doorway. His brows pushed together as he stared at me... then at my trembling hands. He looked like he'd walked in on someone who'd seen a ghost. "Amara," he said slowly, his voice deep and careful, "are you... okay?" I forced my lips to move. "Yeah. Yes. I'm fine." His eyes flicked to the dusty shelf behind me, then back to my face. "What are you doing down here?" "Just" I inhaled, trying to slow the pounding in my chest, "going through my old stuff. I couldn't find some things in my room." I kept my tone flat, casual, even though my pulse said otherwise. He stared for another long, uncomfortable second... then hummed under his breath and stepped aside. "Don't leave things scattered," he said as he walked out the door. "Your mother hates mess." And then he was gone. I exhaled with no memory of holding my

  • FATED TO HIS DARKNESS    CHAPTER 10: DREAM TURN DANGEROUS

    AMARA'S POVDarkness swallowed everything. I wasn't sure how I got here. One moment, I was drifting off to sleep; the next, I was standing alone in a forest that didn't feel like a dream at all.Moonlight slanted through the trees. The air smelled damp and cold, and every step I took seemed to echo louder.A rustling sound in the bushes froze me. Low growl. Eyes glowed in the darkness, sharp and hungry. I couldn't make out their shapes at first, just after them, circling me. Wolves. A pack.They closed in, sniffing the air, smiling, sizing me up. My chest tightened as their teeth bared in the moonlight. They lunged. Pain exploded as I was knocked to the ground, bites raking my arms and legs. Blood mixed with, the cold dirt, and I screamed until the world blurred before my eyes.I woke up, gasping, drenched in sweat. My side throbbed as though the dream had left a scar. Shaking, I stumbled into the bathroom, letting the hot water wash over

  • FATED TO HIS DARKNESS    CHAPTER 9: SEARCH FOR MONSTERS

    AMARA’S POVMorning came with the smell of burnt toast and Mira singing loudly in the kitchen, trying too hard to make me feel normal again. I sat at the table, poking at my food, pretending the ache in my body didn’t bother me.My phone buzzed. Work. My heart dropped. I haven’t reached out to them since the accident. With everything that happened, I totally forgot I have a job. Everyone around town heard about the attack. I answered, hoping for anything but bad news, instead. I got two minutes of old corporate words. “We’re downsizing.” “Your role has been terminated.”“You can come for your belongings.” Just like that, I lost my job. When the call ended, the silence felt heavier than the pain in my ribs. Mira touched my shoulder. “Amara… I’m sorry.” I shook my head. “It’s not just about the job. It’s everything. Something is after me or watching me and no one believes me. “Mira that animal that attacked me… “I swallowed. They said it was probably a wild dog. But I know what I f

  • FATED TO HIS DARKNESS    CHAPTER 8: GONE LIKE SMOKE

    AMARA’S POVI woke up in the hospital two days later, and the first thing I felt was sharp, stabbing pain straight through my side the moment I tried to breathe. It forced a shaky gasp out of me. The room felt too bright, too white. Everything looked like it had been bleached clean, from the walls to the sheets to the stupid plastic chair by the window. Even the air smelled of drugs and chemicals.My head throbbed, a heavy, dragging kind of ache that made it hard to think. I blinked, trying to pull my thoughts together, but they scattered instantly. Nothing made sense.A doctor stood beside me, flipping through a chart. He didn’t even look at me when he said, “You’re lucky. Looks like a wild animal attack… maybe a wolf. The wound was deep, but we stitched it and stopped the bleeding. You’ll heal. Just give it time.”A wolf.The word hung in the air, heavy enough to press against my chest. My fingers curled slowly around the bedsheet as I tried to force the memories to come. But everyt

  • FATED TO HIS DARKNESS    CHAPTER 6: THE ECHOES THAT FOLLOWS

    KAEL'S POVShe moved again, to a new apartment, new locks she triple-checked before bed. I stayed back, as I always do. Far enough she couldn’t sense me directly, close enough to step in if she needed it. My presence was a shadow in her life, silent and unseen. The pain struck first. I felt it even before she did like a ripple through the air, sharp and twisting, making her curl in on herself. Carefully, I reached toward her. Not to frighten not to scare. Just enough to ease it. My touch was almost a thought, a warmth she couldn’t see, but it soothed the ache. I held it there until it melted away, she never saw me. She only felt the relief and the strange, unexplainable comfort, and I stayed hidden, letting her believe she was alone.The danger is real. The Shadow Queen’s reach spreads farther than she can imagine, Her agent, creatures carved from darkness, shift between worlds looking for weakness. If they sense the bond, and if anyone touches her… the cost would be mine to bear bu
