All Chapters of FATED TO HIS DARKNESS : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

KAEL'S POV I should have stayed in my realm. The council warned me, the Oracle warned me, even my wolf snarled at the risk, but none of it mattered. Not when her scent… warm vanilla, soft jasmine, and something ancient called to the deepest part of me. I buried my destined mate years ago, sworn never to claim a mate. I built my reign on blood, shadow, control, and solitude. And yet there she stood, fragile yet defiant, marked as mine by the moon itself. I had been watching her for seven moons, slipping through the thin points between realms, stepping into her world only when necessary. The portals were unstable, thin as glass, easy to shatter if used too often. But for her, I opened them anyway. I always would. Tonight, she finally saw me. I stood across the road, cloaked in the shadows, watching her hurry down the dim street. Her aura shimmered faintly, her power waking far earlier than expected. That alone terrified me more than any enemy. My wolf pushed forward in my mind,

AMARA'S POV The darkness pressed against my eyelids long before the nightmare began. It felt different this time—too real, too close. Like someone was standing right behind me in the shadows. I couldn’t see him, but I felt him. A presence. Warm. Eyes I couldn’t see still managed to hold me in place, freezing me like a statue. A hot breath skimmed the back of my neck, sending a violent shiver down my spine. I tried to turn. Tried to scream. Nothing moved. A voice slipped through the shadows, soft but impossible to ignore. My name. “Amara…” The sound curled around me like smoke, like something I should have run from… but my heart reacted before my mind could. It drew toward the voice, toward the warmth that hovered inches from my skin. Not touching me. Just close enough to steal my breath. Then the darkness swallowed everything whole. I jolted awake with a gasp, chest rising and falling too fast. My room was silent, but I didn’t feel alone. My sheets w

KAEL'S POV She moved again, to a new apartment, new locks she triple-checked before bed. I stayed back, as I always do. Far enough she couldn’t sense me directly, close enough to step in if she needed it. My presence was a shadow in her life, silent and unseen. The pain struck first. I felt it even before she did like a ripple through the air, sharp and twisting, making her curl in on herself. Carefully, I reached toward her. Not to frighten not to scare. Just enough to ease it. My touch was almost a thought, a warmth she couldn’t see, but it soothed the ache. I held it there until it melted away, she never saw me. She only felt the relief and the strange, unexplainable comfort, and I stayed hidden, letting her believe she was alone. The danger is real. The Shadow Queen’s reach spreads farther than she can imagine, Her agent, creatures carved from darkness, shift between worlds looking for weakness. If they sense the bond, and if anyone touches her… the cost would be mine to

AMARA’S POVI woke up in the hospital two days later, and the first thing I felt was sharp, stabbing pain straight through my side the moment I tried to breathe. It forced a shaky gasp out of me. The room felt too bright, too white. Everything looked like it had been bleached clean, from the walls to the sheets to the stupid plastic chair by the window. Even the air smelled of drugs and chemicals.My head throbbed, a heavy, dragging kind of ache that made it hard to think. I blinked, trying to pull my thoughts together, but they scattered instantly. Nothing made sense.A doctor stood beside me, flipping through a chart. He didn’t even look at me when he said, “You’re lucky. Looks like a wild animal attack… maybe a wolf. The wound was deep, but we stitched it and stopped the bleeding. You’ll heal. Just give it time.”A wolf.The word hung in the air, heavy enough to press against my chest. My fingers curled slowly around the bedsheet as I tried to force the memories to come. But everyt

AMARA'S POVDarkness swallowed everything. I wasn't sure how I got here. One moment, I was drifting off to sleep; the next, I was standing alone in a forest that didn't feel like a dream at all.Moonlight slanted through the trees. The air smelled damp and cold, and every step I took seemed to echo louder.A rustling sound in the bushes froze me. Low growl. Eyes glowed in the darkness, sharp and hungry. I couldn't make out their shapes at first, just after them, circling me. Wolves. A pack.They closed in, sniffing the air, smiling, sizing me up. My chest tightened as their teeth bared in the moonlight. They lunged. Pain exploded as I was knocked to the ground, bites raking my arms and legs. Blood mixed with, the cold dirt, and I screamed until the world blurred before my eyes.I woke up, gasping, drenched in sweat. My side throbbed as though the dream had left a scar. Shaking, I stumbled into the bathroom, letting the hot water wash over
