DARIUS POV I raced to my office after the realization hit me like a ton of bricks. I immediately mindlinked Lucas and Tobias. ‘Meet me in my office, ASAP!’ I shouted through the link. ‘Darius? Is everything okay? I’m on my way. I just finished meeting with Justin.’ Tobias responded. ‘On my way as well!” Lucas said hurriedly. They both arrived, confusion and concern clear on their faces. I was pacing back and forth behind my desk, unable to get words out- my mind was racing, and anger was building up inside of me. “Alpha, what has happened?” Lucas was trying to break me out of my thoughts. He has always been more formal than Tobias. Being a couple of years younger than I am, he wasn’t expecting to be given the position of Gamma. He is quiet, smart, and rational. For my first few years as Alpha, it was just me and Tobias, and we realized we needed another member within the pack leadership to help with the rebuilding of the pack, and to help us in moments like t

DAYA POV Pain. Bone chilling, gut wrenching pain. Why? Why is this happening? I passed out quickly, thank the Goddess for that. I woke up in the medical clinic again. Four sets of eyes were watching me: Emmy, Saph, Dr. Richard, and Darius. There was a mixture of relief and concern on their faces. My eyes immediately connected with the set of dark brown eyes towards the back of the room. It seemed like he was in pain as well. I went to speak but was immediately stopped. “Don’t try to speak just yet, Dye. Even though this attack was brief, it seemed extremely intense. Perhaps each attack becomes more extreme than the previous ones.” Saph began to explain. I nodded and tried to adjust myself in my bed so I could sit up and look around the room better. “Richard and I have been hitting a wall as to what can be causing these attacks. And since you haven’t experienced one in a week, we let our guards down. But, I do have a new theory.” Saph continued. She glanced at Dr. Richard and

DARIUS POV Mate. She’s… my mate. I was fighting my wolf for control the whole time I was in her room at the medical clinic. I wanted nothing more than her in that moment. I wanted to hold her. Kiss her. Fuck her. Mark her. Make her mine in ways I don’t even know are possible yet. I wanted her to make me hers. I want her. I want Daya- no Diamond. She truly lives up to her name. Sharp edges, but she has a spark and allure that draws me to her. Like moth to a flame. And, oh fuck, how badly I want to be engulfed by her heat. And yet, I couldn’t say any of this to her. I couldn’t muster up the courage to confess to her, in front of everyone closest to us, that she is mine. My mate. How could I? She already hates me for what I’ve done to her. How could I have known that being with Mara- being with anyone- would cause Daya so much pain? She will never forgive me. I’m not even able to forgive myself. I never wanted to have a fated mate, specifically because I didn’t want an

DARIUS POV Mara left and I had to shower again. Even though she didn’t touch me, she was close enough. I don’t want any trace of her near me. After cleansing myself of her presence, I got dressed to go to the packhouse to meet with Tobias and Lucas. Even though Mara probably just has an intense crush on me, I don’t think it’s smart to keep her on the warrior squad. Maybe, in time, she can come back. For now, she needs to find a different job...away from me and Daya. Daya. What do I do about her? I found myself sitting in a simple leather chair in my living area, in front of a stone fireplace. This is my favorite part of my home. It’s a simple cottage, but it brings me peace. Most of the pack lives in cottages close to one another. I choose to live a little farther away from everyone. I love my pack and would do anything for them, but this job is exhausting. Having a small place all to myself provides me with a bit of comfort and privacy I crave at times. Daya is comfortable.

DARIUS POV Once the door to my office closed behind Justin, I mindlinked Tobias and Lucas. ‘We need to talk, but not here. Let’s go to my place.’ ‘Agreed. Let’s go.’ Tobias said. - - - We were back at my cottage. Tobias and Lucas were sitting in my living room. I poured myself a glass of whiskey. I fuckin’ need a drink after what’s been going on today. “If you’re having a drink, better pour me one too. This doesn’t seem like news I want to discuss sober.” Tobias joked. I rolled my eyes but began pouring a second glass. “Pour one for Lucas too. I have a feeling we all will need a drink.” He said while clapping Lucas on the back. “I’m still reeling over Justin being the world’s biggest idiot. A strong drink wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.” Lucas said dryly. He rarely gets pissed off. Seeing him dig into Justin was a rare occurrence, but I was glad to see Lucas showing that he can be an enforcer if needed. I handed them both their drinks and sat down in my leather chair

DAYA POV It’s been two days since my run in with that wolf. To say that things have been tense is an understatement. Darius has been helping out at morning training sessions. Most, okay, all the tension is coming from him. I constantly feel him staring at me from across the field. I don’t know why. I thought he was satisfied with what Emmy, Saph, and I told him the other day. He doesn’t seem to care that we lied about being related. Is he still suspicious of me? I’m doing my best to play it cool and give him the occasional glance and nod, but then he quickly turns away. He's being weird. I still couldn’t believe I hugged him the other day in the medical clinic. I was so excited that he was willing to bring Amy and Pearl out here. Me, Emmy, and Saph were starting to coordinate that. Pearl would get here sooner since she lives closer. Amy will take an extra week or so. She’s kinda spoiled by the warm, Florida weather, so she’s not in a rush for a cold northeast Winter. But that hu

DARIUS POV “We need to talk.” I tell her. Unable to take my eyes off her. She is 5 feet away from me, in her most natural form. All I want to do is wrap my arms around her and feel her body pressed against mine. But I force myself to maintain eye contact. I remember there is a stash of clothing in a tree near me and I get up to fetch us some clothes. As I stand up and turn around, I hear Daya gasp at the sight of my ass. I chuckle to myself and shake my head. Don’t tell me this girl is shy. She’s a top warrior. She’s obviously seen naked dudes plenty of times. Though, I do pack more than most. I get to the tree and grab whatever clothes are hidden within the trunk. I slip on a pair of shorts, even though they are a couple sizes small, they cover me up enough. I toss Daya the sweatshirt. She snatches it out of the air, quickly exposing her perfect, perky tits to me and my wolf is about to lose it. I force him back and wait for her to cover herself. The sweatshirt hits her mid-thigh.
Fearing Fate Chapter 23
DAYA POV I ran until I felt the rain begin to fall. The snow was melting, turning into slush and mud beneath my paws. How could this be happening? Everything was going so well for the first time in such a long time. I was finally becoming reunited with my sisters after being separated for over a decade. I was in our original territory, making progress in taking it back and becoming the rightful alpha. But now…now, everything is falling apart like a house of cards. Justin is my fated mate and he is so hurt by the fact that I don’t want to accept the mate bond. But he is willing to wait for me. Then Darius decides to confess that he has feelings for me and to lie and say that he is my fated mate, and not Justin. Justin has no reason to lie. Darius, however, this explains why he has been acting weird around me. Then he kissed me. Oh my gosh. That kiss. I didn’t want it to end. But Justin’s face flashed through my mind. I remember the pain I felt from the mate bond, and I could
