All Chapters of Marked by fate: Chapter 411 - Chapter 420

Zarha's POVThere’s so much noise. Everyone is talking at once, jabbering and clamouring over each other, full of questions, judgement, outrage and confusion. But through it all, I can’t take my eyes off my mates. Plural. I knew this was going to happen, but I still can’t get my head around it. I guess I wasn’t expecting two at once. And these two? I mean… at one point I hoped, but I never really let myself believe it.Now I keep getting lost in Xander’s golden-brown eyes or Max’s emerald ones. The sparks flying across my skin where they hold my hands send chills racing down my spine, and all I want is to be alone with them, as terrifyingly daunting as that prospect is.Zanthe keeps purring loudly and rolling over like the hussy she is. I know she’s dying for her time with her mates. The idea of there being two of them doesn’t bother her in the slightest. Fuck, what’s it going to be like when there are four of them?Xander doesn’t seem too bothered about sharing me. At least, I think

Max's POVMy mind has barely registered what the fuck just happened in there. She’s my mate.I close my eyes as I follow them down the corridor. Xander is carrying my mate, and for some reason that doesn’t bother me as much as I feel like it should. He’s her mate too, and I can’t even fathom what’s going on with that right now.'I told you,' Medus says, cock-a-hoop.The fact that he’s pressed closer against the inside of my mind than I think he has ever been before is one thing, but his smug happiness is another entirely. If I wasn’t so overjoyed myself, I’d feel slightly nauseated by his glee.The words of the conversation I’ve just witnessed keep trying to replay in my mind. There’s nuance there, something I know I’ve missed, but I can’t pin it down. It’s like trying to catch hold of tadpoles as they slither and slide out of my grasp, and honestly, I’m not really in the mood.I have a mate, and it’s Zahra.I have to share my mate, and that thought is slightly bitter to swallow, but M

Max's POVI open the door and climb out, the morning breeze more than a little refreshing around my heated balls. It helps calm my cock down slightly.I stride around the truck, determined to be the one to help Zahra out while Xander is still climbing from the driver’s seat.I open Zahra’s door and realise she’s not wearing shoes. None of us are, and the shale here is rough beneath my feet. I don’t want her hurting herself, so I lean down and scoop her up.She huffs. “I can walk, you know.”But she wraps her arms around my neck and snuggles her face into me.I smile. The feeling of her in my arms is incredible, and even if her inner feminist objects, she’s not objecting too hard.“I know, baby, but if I had my way, you’d never walk anywhere again.”She huffs a little breath against my neck, and my skin breaks out in goosebumps.“I’ve missed you,” she whispers.I squeeze her a little tighter because fuck, I’ve missed her so damn much. It was like the sun set and my world was dark for th

Max's POVXander leans in and kisses her. He takes his time, his lips moving softly over hers for a few minutes, before he deepens it, sliding his tongue against hers. I am so fucking hard watching him with her, his domineering power compared to her delicate features. The way his large hand cups her jaw, tilting her head back to give him better access. Her jaw and collarbone are exposed to me as Xander tips her head back, the loose t-shirt she's wearing hanging off one shoulder, giving me perfect access.I lean forward and press my mouth to her neck where it joins her shoulder. Where I'm going to place my mark as soon as she's ready. She shivers and moans into Xander's mouth, her arousal spiking through the air. Fuuuck. I kiss and suck and nibble my way up her neck to the back of her ear, then back down to her shoulder. Then I tug the t-shirt down slightly and kiss over her collarbone to the hollow at the base of her neck. Zahra moans again. Xander's left her mouth now, and he's kissi

Tobias's POVWe don’t even know where the lake house is, but I know where the lake is, so Marcus heads towards the training centre and the lake beyond it. Once we get there, we can see the small island out in the distance with a house perched on it.There are no other houses around the lake, so I’m guessing that’s the one.Thor certainly seems to think so.The closer we get, the more excitable he becomes.“You’re going to need a boat to get there, T. It’s in the middle of the lake,” Marcus says, squinting through the windscreen as the car bumps along the rough track.“Fuck.”I slam my hand into the back of Jasper’s seat, jolting him forwards.'No boat? We can swim,' Thor yips excitedly.Of course, he thinks shifting and turning up naked and bedraggled is a good idea.I, however, do not.We’re trying to mend this bond and get Zahra to accept us, not scare her off.“Pull over,” I instruct Marcus.We’re not far from the gardens of the Alpha House now, beyond the training centre and ground
