Marked by fate Chapter 273
Samuels's POVWhen I wake, the sun is low in the sky. I feel better, slightly stronger. Onyx is fast asleep in the back of my mind, and I can tell he’s been working on healing us.When I open my eyes, I see we’re drifting down the river once more, the wolves on the riverbank loping along as Zahra’s wolf and the other two largest wolves pull the rafts.Fuck. They must be exhausted.We’re moving at a steady pace, but I can see what Zahra means. We’re following the curves of the river instead of running straight, meaning we’re covering more ground but less distance geographically. We need to be able to leave the water... I need to be able to run.As the sun continues to dip in the sky, we slow, and I see Zahra directing the wolves. The rafts are pulled to the bank and secured, and they begin to unload. The bedrolls and provisions are carried onto the bank, and wolves ferry them towards the area they’re going to rest in. Others are gathering wood for a fire, and I see another hunting part

Samuels's POVI sway back and forth, the movement rhythmic, and although it should be relaxing, something about it is jarring. The world is too unsteady beneath me. It should be soothing, but it isn’t. My stomach twists, and nausea rolls through me as my consciousness returns, the urgency thrumming through me yanking me out of the fog. It feels like I’m dragging myself through rolling waves, which only makes the nausea worse.Water slaps against wood somewhere nearby.As I heave, I roll, the movement and the spasming in my stomach sending knives of pain slicing through my abdomen.Fuck.‘Steady... you’re okay, you’re okay.’That’s Onyx.Relief hits first, sharp and immediate, followed by confusion so abrupt it almost stops me. He’s back. I know he is. But I can’t remember him being gone. Not properly. Just the certainty that something had been missing, and now it isn’t.I empty my stomach again and again into the water below me.Water?‘What’s going on?’ I ask Onyx, but my mind feels

Zarah's POVOnce we’re finished, I turn. The others are huddled around a fire, the flames reaching up and casting flickering shadows on the cave walls. The smoke curls towards the high roof, or maybe it’s escaping through a crack somewhere I can’t see. From the looks of it, everyone has eaten something and had something to drink, and now they’re either sleeping or sitting talking quietly. A few have dressed, but there probably wasn’t enough clothing for all of them, so they huddle closer to the fire.I catch Corrine’s eye. She and the rest of my pack are sitting together on one side of the fire. Jen is lying in Corrine’s lap and looks like she’s asleep.I approach, wiping my hands on the scraps of Samuels’ T-shirt.Sally follows behind me. I sit, and Corrine passes us both a bottle of water to share and a tin of what looks like soup each. The lids have been cut open with a knife, the jagged edges looking lethal.“Here,” she says.“Thanks,” Sally says quietly, and I nod and smile, too

Zarha's POVSamuels keeps slipping precariously from Zanthe’s shoulders as she runs. So far he’s managed to right himself, but I can hear his laboured breathing and the pained wheezing whenever Zanthe’s movement jolts him too hard. My ears strain for the beat of his heart while Zanthe’s swivel to pick up anything and everything around us.My mind wanders to what just happened. The fight between the Beta and Samuels, and Levi... it was all so sudden.He’s dead.Although losing anyone is never ideal, I can’t really bring myself to be sad about it. Yeah, he may have helped Samuels get us out, but I was only in there because of him. He was a dick, and way too clingy and intense. I’m fairly sure he’d convinced himself we were meant to be, or some bullshit. Frankly, I don’t have the time or the capacity to mourn someone who was working for the rogues. I’ve got fifty she-wolves with enough mental trauma to carry without adding him to the list.I feel my pack getting closer, and I know we’re
Marked by fate Chapter 269
Samuels's POVHe presses us back again, and we grapple, teeth and paws everywhere, until we finally manage to get a proper bite, clamping down hard on his foreleg. The taste of blood floods our senses for a moment, and then we hear the satisfying crack.But a second later there’s an agonising burst of pain and then wetness between our legs, followed, strangely, by almost no pain at all. We stumble, our feet snagging on something, but we hold on, teeth biting deeper into the now-crushed leg. Onyx starts to shake, wanting to rip the fucker’s leg off.We sense movement around us, and in the edge of our vision we see a rank of warriors in human form surrounding us.Shit. If they engage, we’re going to struggle. We don’t know what the fucker did to our stomach, but we keep feeling a weird tugging sensation, and we’re beginning to see black spots at the edge of our vision. The adrenaline keeps us moving, but something’s wrong.We feel her before we see her. The Task Force bond thrums as Zah
Marked by fate Chapter 268
Samuels's POVWe run, Onyx just on Zahra’s wolf’s tail, with Levi a few metres behind us. His small brown wolf is going to struggle to keep pace if we have to drive this hard for long, but we don’t have a choice right now. We’ve dispatched the patrols, but someone will have heard their howls, and we’re still too close.Then I hear it, Onyx’s ears picking up a loud howl.Fuck.We put on a burst of speed, Zahra’s wolf and Onyx lengthening their strides the way hours of endurance runs have taught them to do without conscious thought. But the small brown wolf behind us increases his pace instead, scrambling to compensate, and I can already hear his breathing sawing in and out as he starts to fall further back.Fuck.‘We’ll have to leave him. Zahra and the girls are our mission.’Onyx is right, and I know it, but I still feel a flicker of guilt after all Levi’s help. The truth of it is simple. I used him to get them out, but I’m not sacrificing Zahra for him.Another howl goes up, this one
Marked by fate Chapter 106
Tobias's POVI wake with a start, unaware of when I even fell asleep, but morning light is already spilling across the carpet. My body feels sluggish, heavy in that post-emotional-hangover way, but my mind is already moving.Thor stretches in my head, alert and steady for the first time in years.‘

Zahra's POV“Zahra…, I am coming for you, white wolf.”A massive shadow wolf lunges at me and I jerk back with a strangled gasp, waking instantly.Fuck.The remnants of last night’s dream cling to me like wet cobwebs, sticky and suffocating. The same forest. The same voice. The same claws scraping

Tobias's POVThe women bustle out, chatting animatedly, and Greyson follows, giving my dad a nod as he goes. Aiden follows behind him, flashing me a look and a small nod. It eases something very small inside me. But I’m still tense. I will be, until I can see her progress with my own eyes.The room

Zahra's POVWe chatter for a bit. They ask questions about the academy, about the people there, about relationships. I answer lightly, skimming the surface. I’m not diving into Eli or nights spent eating alone in my room. I don’t have the strength for that conversation. Not with this audience. Not
