Fearing Fate Chapter 22
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.

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

DARIUS POV Chaos. Utter and complete fucking chaos. I don’t know how I didn’t see this sooner. I missed all the signs right in front of me. Justin fits the bill for everything Lucas and Emmy said we should be looking for. He’s been irritable, slacking with his duties, forgetful, and demotivated. I don’t understand why. I guess the why doesn’t matter. We just need to find him because I sense he is part of something bigger and ominous. “Mara’s injuries are healing, Alpha. I’m not sure why she isn’t awake yet. I’ve run her blood for drugs and toxins. I should get those results by the morning.” Richard says, his hand already running through his hair. He was slumped in his chair behind his desk. His office is cluttered with books and medical diagrams on the wall. I nod in appreciation for his attention to detail and his initiative. “Let’s hope she wakes up soon and can provide us with some information about Justin and the rogues he was with.” I drop down into an empty chair across
Fearing Fate Chapter 25
DAYA POV After our embarrassing, pseudo-sex talk, the three of us prepared ourselves for the day. Saph was on her way to check on Mara’s status at the clinic. Emmy and I were meeting Darius, Tobias and Lucas for a strategy plan. Even if Darius is telling the truth about us being mates, I cannot afford to think about it now. There is too much going on here that requires my attention. The mate bond isn’t going anywhere. Emmy and I arrive at the packhouse, and walking there, I could sense the energy amongst the pack was tense. It’s clear the members of this pack have been through a lot, and now, danger is looming in the air again. These may not be my pack members, but in this brief time of being here, I’ve come to care about them. My presence here is no longer about reclaiming this territory. Technically, this territory was my family’s, but we have been far-removed from here, and nobody even seems to remember our father, Alpha Bronson. So why put these people, this pack, through mor
Fearing Fate Chapter 26
DARIUS POV I’m going to kill Mara. First, she behaves like a clingy ex-girlfriend, who is hell-bent on being my chosen mate and Luna. Then she’s attacked by Justin and his crew. Now she’s somehow missing. Where the fuck could she have gone? Is she involved with Justin somehow? To top it all off, me and Daya were finally getting closer, and we had to stop because of Mara. I’m going to rip her heart out. Daya may be in denial about the mate bond with me, but I know she feels it. She feels those sparks and tingles. I can tell her wolf likes being around me. She just needs time. Hopefully, all this craziness can be dealt with before the next full moon. Daya and I arrive at the medical clinic, and I can sense the unruliness in the air. I see Tobias rushing down a hallway, shouting orders to a few warriors. “Comb sections 20-30. That’s where we last tracked Justin and his crew. She can’t have gone far. Send a couple people to scout her home and check for anything that can lead
Fearing Fate Chapter 27
DAYA POV Okay, I lied. I told Darius and the others that Sage would get here the day after I called her. It took her three days to get here. Amy and Pearl also needed a few days to get their lives in order and make their way here. But they should all be arriving today! It is difficult for me to contain my excitement. This is much needed good news after this week. We have had no leads, or signs, of Mara or Justin. I haven’t seen much of Darius. He has been securing all the pack’s resources and helping with border patrol every day too. I still haven’t joined the pack. Since that day in the medical clinic, I’ve been second-guessing things. Darius told me I cannot join border patrol until I join the pack. That is what sparked the idea of running multiple training sessions each day. We decided to do two different training sessions each day, to ensure the borders always have people on patrol. This also makes the group sizes easier for me to manage by myself. I clap my hands toge
Fearing Fate Chapter 28
DARIUS POV Tobias wouldn’t shut up about Sage. He’s used to hooking up with the occasional pack member. They are drawn to his position and title and enjoy being submissive for him. He’s never complained about that before. “I’m telling you, Dare, I’ve never been put on my ass like that. And the fact that it was done by that little vixen. Fuck dude. I had to stay on the ground for a minute just to give my dick time to calm down. I don’t know what that girl has done to me, but I like it.” He kept talking about her like this for the entire morning. He wanted to go back to the afternoon training session in hopes that Sage would ask him to help demonstrate more maneuvers. I had to burst his bubble though. I needed him to help me conduct perimeter checks. There have been no leads in a few days and the quiet makes me nervous. We checked in with the warriors on patrol. We ran by Logan and Carlo; they were our most senior warriors now. They help out extra at their training sessions a
Fearing Fate Chapter 29
DARIUS POV The three of us spent the rest of the night coming up with a plan and trying to figure out who this Stone-person could be. I didn’t have anyone in my pack that went by that name. Justin’s last name is Toller and Mara’s is Blakenship. I could barely sleep. It was early the next morning and I figured I’d check out the morning training session. Of course, once I said that, Tobias perked up from his spot on my couch and said he’d come with me. Lucas rolled over in his spot on my living room floor. He was covered in a couple of throw blankets, and he used his hoodie as a makeshift pillow. He wasn’t much of a morning person. He usually trained on his own, and now that there were two training sessions, he started joining in the afternoon session with the warriors the last few days. Tobias was practically sprinting over to the training field. It was still early- 5:15 AM. I couldn’t help but shake my head and laugh at him. I’ve never seen him this smitten. If he’s not c
