Zahra's POVI should have spoken to him when I first felt his guilt.Heās been flagellating himself over this for days. Heās suffered because I didnāt speak to him.How had I let him carry this alone?Fuck.I pull back and reach into my pocket. Itās awkward because Iām sitting on my dress, but I manage to extract the letter.āAngelica wrote to me. I think it might clear up some things for you,ā I say as I unfold it. āPlease, just listen.āI read it to him. Itās the first time heās heard the words of the prophecy in full, and he listens closely.āQuint Bond?ā he asks, his head cocking to one side.āYeah. She explained it to me a bit when we met with her four years ago, but basically, Iām bonded to two soul-bonded pairs. From what sheās saying, the soul-bonded pairs need to mark each other too. I think that might be what completes the circle. Max and Xander were obviously drawn to each other before, as they used to be a couple. What if you and Lincoln are being drawn together now? Do yo

Zahra's POVThe car is quiet as we make our way through the castle gates and out into the pack lands towards the main road.The scenery flashes by, but neither of us speaks. I can feel his anger and irritation at Alice still brewing under the surface, but deeper down, where heās trying to hide it from me, is the guilt thatās plagued him for days and, for some reason, a twinge of reluctance to return to Shadow.I thought he merely didnāt want to leave his family and his home, but now I wonder if thereās more. Something happened back at Shadow, and heās dreading going back.The thought twists something deep inside my chest. I want this to be a home for us. I want us all to want to be there, not dread returning.I turn to face him. His strong jaw clenches and unclenches as he drives, his sunglasses only partially obscuring his eyes as I catch glimpses of them around the frames. I take in his straight nose, the wave of hair thatās beginning to flop over his forehead, his crisp white shirt

Zarha's POVTobias hands me the letter from Angelica out of the safe.āHere you go, Angel. Iām going to make sure our things are all packed up, so weāre ready to go whenever you are. Take your time. No one will disturb you here.āHe leans down and kisses me softly.āThank you,ā I breathe against him. āI love you.āI feel the flutter of emotion down the bond. His love... but then his worry and guilt. The guilt feels stronger than it did yesterday.I have no idea whatās going on with him, but Iām determined to speak to him about it on the drive home.I wait until the door closes behind him before taking a seat in the armchair beside the window and sliding my finger into the back of the envelope.My fingers are shaking slightly.Zanthe snores quietly in the back of my mind, exhausted after her nightās antics with Thor. I smile to myself. She was so happy to finally be marked by all her mates.I wish I could feel that same sense of completion.Even though three marks are all Iām going to

Thor's POVSkin feels itchy, body wound tight. I pace.Stupid T wonāt get to the forest fast enough. Too many diversions. Too many distractions.I nearly took over just now, but Mate calmed me down.Now I pace.They walk through the castle. Puny human legs. Too slow.My mateās jasmine scent is making my mouth water. I want her. I need her. Itās been too long.āHurry,ā I demand.He doesnāt speed up.I try taking over his legs to make them move faster, but heās blocked me.Stupid human.The scent of the fresh air outside the open front doors nearly has me howling. Itās so good to be home.I feel a shiver run through me, my body coiled tight. I need to get out of here. The space in Tās mind is so small compared to before. Itās no longer that cavernous place where I could get lost.The scent of pine nearly overwhelms Mateās jasmine as we walk into the forest.āHere is far enough,ā I demand, making T stop.He talks to Zahra, and she laughs. The sound makes my heart soar.I love making her

Zahra's POVI stare down at the letter in my hands. I can hear the others continuing their conversation around me, but itās like my eyes are glued to it, the spidery handwriting on the front unfamiliar and scratchy.I absolutely do not want to open it now. Not in front of everyone. Not when I have no idea what it might contain.So I fold it in half and slide it into my pocket, where it feels like itās burning a hole through Lottyās dress.āZahra, my darling, Iām so glad I can finally call you my daughter,ā Sophie gushes as she pulls me into another hug, and I feel Tobiasās hand leave my hip as his mother inserts herself between us.He sends a pulse of love and warmth down the bond as heās dragged away to speak to his dad and Baxter. Even from across the room, I can feel him checking in through the bond.Kayla approaches and hugs me as well.āIām so happy for you,ā she says quietly, pulling back to smile at me.āThank you,ā I say, my voice coming out far quieter than Iād planned.āI ca

Tobias's POVWe wave goodbye to Daemon and Chloe as they head off down the drive towards the airfield. Simeon and Alistair left about twenty minutes ago, but the bears lingered a little longer. Chloe and Zahra have really hit it off, and we couldnāt pull them apart.I smile down at Zahra as sheās tucked beneath my arm. We need to head off as well, but my parents insisted we see them before we leave. I glance at my watch.Itās already eight oāclock.Lunch overran, then the meeting went long as well, and we ended up staying for drinks afterwards. Before I knew it, the whole day had disappeared.Itās been so nice being home and having Zahra here as my mate. Iām not sure Iām ready to rush back to Shadow, but I know she needs to see the others while the bond is still fresh. Being away from a newly bonded mate in those first few weeks can be painful.We head back up the steps.āMy parents want to see us in the orangery, then we can head back.āShe glances up at me.āI thought Thor wanted to

Xander's POVNone of us sleep a wink. We stay huddled in the great room. Iāve not slept since Monday, and Sunday night was restless because I was so excited to see her. But now Iām empty. I can barely keep my eyes open, but I canāt sleep. Something deep inside me is telling me something is very, ve

Zahra's POVI hear another burst of laughter through the wall and smile to myself. I think theyāve all moved in now. Iāve been listening to the hustle and bustle through my dorm room wall all afternoon.The cars started arriving this morning, disgorging student after student, all laden down with bo

Xander's POVWe donāt say much as we walk her back. Max keeps his arm around her shoulders, guiding her gently like heās 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; whatās l

Zahra's POVDinner last night was weird. I felt like I was under a microscope the whole time. But the strangest part wasnāt everyone staring, it was the way Tobias standing up for me made me feel. After everything, after the way he stormed into the pool party trying to have me pulled off the course
