Zahra's POV

I fucking love being at university.

‘Why didn’t we push to do this before?’ Zanthe hums with happiness in my mind as our second lecture of the day wraps up. This one was Advanced Business Strategy.

Bastion is beside me, and another girl with a mane of curly brown hair is on my other side, her tortoiseshell glasses perched on the bridge of her nose as she takes as many notes as I have. I don’t think Bastion’s taken any.

The lecturer wraps up, giving us some assigned reading to do bef

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 370

    Zahra's POVI push myself faster, my legs pounding, my breathing deepening, as the roar of my blood fills my ears. I’m still not fast enough. My lungs burn too quickly, my muscles ache too soon, and the version of me who used to move like this without thinking feels painfully far away.The Task Force warriors they don’t think I know about are keeping up far too easily. I scoff to myself. I still can’t believe they think I don’t know they’re there. What sort of warrior would I be if I didn’t notice men trailing me wherever I go?Or maybe it’s just after… everything.No. Not everything.After I was kidnapped and tortured for months.Dr Garland keeps telling me off for minimising the gravity of what happened. Apparently, that isn’t healthy. Owning my experiences is necessary for healing, or some bullshit like that.Zanthe gives a sleepy, irritated grunt in the back of my mind, but she doesn’t wake properly.I push harder, even though my thighs are starting to tremble and each breath scra

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 369

    Aiden's POVWatching Kirsten rub herself all over her mates brother makes me feel a little nauseated and I frown. What the fuck does she think she’s doing?Through our bond, I feel Jasmine’s sharp burst of disgust mirror my own.That is not normal.A properly mated wolf usually avoids unnecessary physical contact with wolves of the opposite sex entirely unless they are actively betraying their bond, but to deliberately press herself against her mate’s brother, directly in front of Felix?It is so wildly inappropriate I do not even know where to begin.Felix is frowning now.“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Kirsten. I’ve heard so much about you,” Tobias says as she steps back into Felix’s hold.“Funny, all I’ve heard about you is that you were away,” she chirps with a smile. “Mummy, Daddy, come and meet Felix’s big brother. This is Prince Tobias. Prince Tobias, these are my parents, Michelle and Justin Breverton.”Dad clears his throat beside us. “I think you mean Crown Prince Tobias.”Ki

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 368

    Aiden's POVJames, Dad and the others head out before us. If this is going to be believable, it needs to look as natural as possible. The guards are explainable, but all of us arriving en-masse is not.'Everything okay, darling? Your emotions are all over the place,' Jasmine asks through our link.'I’ll explain later. Where are you now?''We’re down in the orangery having a drink. All us girls are. We were expecting you lot about ten minutes ago.''We’re on our way. Some last-minute Council business came up, but we’re coming now.''Good, because the terrible threesome are out in force, and I’m going to need you to stop me screaming in this woman’s face, or just ripping it off entirely.'I snort at her violent words.Goddess, I love this woman.'No face-ripping tonight, my love. See you in seconds.'Jasper, Marcus and I fall into formation around Tobias, with Lincoln at his side. Henry, Dustin and the other two guards flank us, but they hang back slightly so it looks like his normal pr

    Lincoln's POVAt that last word, my eyebrows shoot upwards and I glance sharply at Tobias.But he’s not paying Alice any attention.Are they old lovers?Why the fuck did she just call him baby?Lex snaps through my mind, 'Focus. That’s not important right now.'Fuck.He’s right.“We need to tell our fathers,” Marcus says grimly, and I see his eyes glaze slightly as he mind-links.A few moments later, there’s a knock at the door.The King walks in with his unit, several warriors I’ve seen before, and Henry close behind them.Aiden recounts Alice’s story, and the room falls silent afterwards.“You are one hundred percent sure you saw her pay an Omega and put something on the food?” Nicholas asks, his face grim.Alice nods immediately.“Alice, I am only going to ask this again because this is extremely serious,” Nicholas says carefully. “Did you, or did you not, witness Kirsten attempt to assassinate the Crown Prince with your own eyes?”The room seems to tighten around us.Alice swallow

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 366

    Lincoln's POVI find a pair of navy dress trousers, a white shirt, and a slightly lighter blue blazer. They’re nice. The quality is exquisite, and everything fits surprisingly well.I wonder if these are Tobias’s old clothes.I pull on my brown Oxfords and head back into the living room.Tobias isn’t out yet, though he moves slower these days.“So,” I ask the others as Marcus tops up my glass, “how much do I need to dread this thing?”“A lot,” Marcus replies. “She and her family are a fucking…”He’s cut off by a loud bang as the front door is flung open and a shout echoes through the apartment.I drop my glass and spin immediately, instinct taking over as I fall into a defensive position beside Marcus and the others. Together we form a wall in front of the bedroom corridor. In front of Tobias’s location.Then confusion hits me when I realise it’s Alice, Aiden’s sister.Her auburn curls bounce wildly as she nearly sprints into the room, her deep green satin dress hitched up to her knee

  • Marked by fate   Chapter 365

    Lincoln's POVI come back to awareness slowly, bit by bit, to the sound of voices and badly suppressed laughter.“Should we wake them?”“Ha, not yet. Let me get a photo first.”“No, man, they’ll kill you.”“Not if they don’t know about it.”I recognise those voices, but they are not Sam and the guys. They are...My eyes snap open, and I sit up quickly.I blink, disorientated, as Aiden, Jasper and Marcus stare back at me with varying expressions of sheepish amusement on their faces. I am half lying on one section of Tobias’s L-shaped sofa in his apartment, having apparently made myself comfortable when I fell asleep. Tobias is sprawled out on the other section, on his back, one leg up on the sofa and the other resting on the floor, but his head is right beside where mine must have been.And fuck, their words come back to me.“Hand over that photo,” I growl at Marcus.He only smirks. “Ah, come on, Linc. You two looked adorable.”I snarl. That is the fucking problem.Marcus dances farthe

They climb out of their cars and greet us all, their faces solemn."How are you, man?" Arlo asks as he pulls me into a hug.I

    Zahra's POVDrip, drip, drip.I jolt back to wakefulness with a sharp clank as my chains rattle. For a second, I can’t place where I am, only the cold stone beneath me and the weight at my throat, then memory slams into place like a door locking.Fuck.My eyelids are swollen, heavy, and I can’t ope

    Zahra's POVA clink of keys sounds above, followed by the scrape of metal. My attention snaps towards the only entrance. Across the room, someone in another cage whispers prayers under her breath, the words broken and desperate, as if faith is the only thing the bars can’t take from her.I lean for

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