Xander's POV

The guys all roll their eyes, and Eliot doesn’t bother to disguise his groan of annoyance.

‘The girls are not going to like her following us home, man,’ Zach links me.

‘I know, but you know what she’s like. She’ll be impossible to get rid of now.’

Zach met his mate Amara at the Night Howlers’ mating ball, just after we turned eighteen. We had gone as a meet-up with the guys following camp, but also in the hopes we might be allowed to see Zahra. But when we were there, Brice—Brant’s dad—told us it wasn’t allowed. It was devastating. Then as soon as we walked into the ballroom, Zach stiffened and all but charged across the room into Amara’s arms. They mated and marked each other within two days. Amara transferred to our pack and school to finish off her final year before the end of the month. She’s amazing—kind, funny, clever—a perfect match for Zach. She’s also a great Beta. She wasn’t of Beta blood originally, though there is Beta lineage in her family. Her mother’s father

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 130

    Edwardo's POVSilence follows. This isn’t how the Task Force usually works and every man in this room knows it. We prefer distance. Clean lines. Fast hits and cleaner exits. Not long-term insertion and bait.Grady shifts in his chair, gaze dropping to the table. He isn’t arguing, but I can see the calculations running through his mind. Blake is staring straight at me, forehead furrowed in that way he has when he’s turning a plan over and looking for the holes.“The Task Force has never operated like this before,” Erikson says at last, his voice measured. “We observe and gather intel. We don’t insert sleepers. It’s too risky. Too many unknowns. Our warriors are too valuable to throw into that kind of mess.”He’s right on every count.“Our warriors are the best trained in the kingdom,” I reply. “That’s exactly why we’re the best suited for a mission like this. Just because we haven’t done it before doesn’t mean we can’t adapt now.”I let my gaze move slowly around the table, meeting eac

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 129

    Edwardo's POVThe muted grey light has not yet banished the last of the stars. They still glimmer faintly, reflected on the surface of the lake as I run past. Dawn is only just beginning to edge over the curve of the earth and I am already sweating, lungs burning in a way I find vaguely satisfying.I slow my pace as I approach the back of the Task Force building. The image of Zahra’s tear-streaked face from yesterday slams back into my mind. The way she looked at me, like I had shattered something vital. Like I had taken whatever trust she had managed to build in me and crushed it under my heel.It still makes my stomach twist.But it needed to be done.‘Yes, it did,’ Metis says solemnly in my mind.He hates it as much as I do when our warriors stop looking at us like men they like and respect, and start looking at us like we are only their commanders. The distinction is a fine one, but you feel it when it shifts. It always happens at some point. You push them hard enough, long enough

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 128

    Xander's POVWe don’t say much as we walk her back. Max keeps his arm around her shoulders, guiding her gently like he’s afraid she might fall apart if he lets go. As we move through the trees toward camp, some of the tension slowly drains out of her. The harsh edge of her sobbing is gone; what’s left is the wreckage of it. Her face is still swollen, eyes stained red, but her breathing has eased into something closer to steady.Oscar falls into step beside me. Lincoln trails behind, quiet and watchful. The four of us form a loose shield around her as we head toward camp.When we reach the cabin area, the fire pit is already lit. Sparks snap into the air as someone adds another log, and the warm glow spills out across the dark grass. It smells like woodsmoke and pine, the low murmur of voices drifting around the fire. The whole scene settles over me in a way that feels safe and familiar.Zahra veers toward the flames and we follow. She doesn’t speak, just sinks onto the nearest log and

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 127

    Xander's POVFear slams into my chest so hard it steals my breath. It is sudden and absolute, a raw, blinding surge that lances straight through me. I nearly cry out. I don’t even realise I’ve moved until I’m already on my feet, chair scraping back against the floor. Panic, terror, and anger crash through me in overwhelming waves, so intense I can’t form a single coherent thought. My body takes over completely, dragging me toward the door before my mind can catch up.My feet are already moving.Atlas snarls in my head, all teeth and urgency.‘Move. Find her.’‘Who’s her?’ I demand, even as I break into a run.He doesn’t answer. He just keeps pacing, snarling, driving me forward.I take the steps out of the cabin two at a time and bolt across the ground, something deep and instinctive pulling me toward the training fields. I don’t question it. I trust it.That’s when I realise, I’m not alone.Max is suddenly at my side, matching my pace effortlessly, his expression tight and focused. O

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 126

    Xander's POVI can’t shake this mood. Today has been wrong from the moment I woke up, not in any single, obvious way, but like something is sitting under my skin and won’t settle. My emotions keep sliding out of alignment, rising and falling without warning. I feel like my skin is too small, like there’s too much feeling packed inside me with nowhere for it to go. I’m restless, keyed up, irritated by nothing and everything all at once. I don’t even know how to describe it properly. I just feel off.I glance across the table and catch the movement as Lincoln rolls his shoulders, a small, unconscious gesture like he’s trying to loosen tension that refuses to let go. I don’t think I’m the only one feeling off today.Max is pushing his food around his plate, barely eating. And of course, I notice that, because I’ve barely managed to keep my eyes off him for days now. I hate myself for it, but it doesn’t change the fact that my attention keeps drifting back to him, like a bruise I can’t st

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 125

    Zarha's POV“Enough.”The word is sharp and absolute.The body on top of me stills and starts to lift away. The second the weight comes off, I twist, flipping onto my back, and drive my knee up into his groin as hard as I can.He folds forward with a scream.At the same time, Zanthe lunges.She goes for his throat. No hesitation. No restraint. She means to rip it out.But the timing is off.He pitches forward as my knee connects, his body twisting as he collapses to the side. Zanthe’s teeth miss the centre of his throat and rake across his neck instead.Blood sprays instantly.He howls.Zanthe snaps again, furious, trying to finish it, but hands grab him and drag him out of her reach.Suddenly the room is full of people. Too many hands are on me.I fucking lose it.I kick and thrash and snarl, fighting like an animal backed into a corner. I will not be restrained again.“Cadet! Stop! Stop!”Someone is shouting, but they’re not taking me. Not again.“Zahra. It’s over.”Another voice. O
