Novel & Cerita Crowned By Fate

I cannot breathe. Her voices crash through my mind. “Four shall be bound to her soul, Their fates entwined, their strength united. Through their bond, the lost shall awaken, And the ancient bloodline shall be reborn. From their union, a king shall rise, A son of both past and future, To reclaim the throne long forsaken, And restore balance to the world. Bound by five, her strength shall awaken, And through their bond, the Lycans shall rise. The time nears. The White Wolf stirs.”

It sounded so familiar… “Wait, as in Azariah Cadelyn?” Chase asked, surprise threading through his voice. “As in Alpha Kiran Cadelyn's son? From the Crimsonfang pack?” Huh? I looked up, Chase’s eyes widened, mirroring my own shock. The name hit me like a punch. The Crimsonfangs were infamous for their brute strength, their reputation casting a long shadow over many packs. Undefeated, dominating the warzones like it was their playground. I’d only ever dreamed about meeting Alpha Kiran, which stemmed from rumors that swirled around him like whispers in the dark. He was loved just as much as he was feared, the perfect man adored by many. Yet, his son and Luna were rarely mentioned.

He was intentionally provoking him. “You should be careful what you say, if all people know that I don't care about my crown. I heard a lot of elders have died in the north and south. You should think before you talk, especially now that elders are dying like flies” Alpha Laurent admitted. That was a threat to my father and he did not hide it, anyone standing here right now will clearly understand that they are threatening each other. It was just funny, nevertheless, I like it when the Alpha threatens him, at least he puts him in his place and makes him realize that he could still have him killed even if the ritual was coming close.

He tossed and turned for sometimes because he was restless, he couldn’t sleep due to what the woman said earlier, it was lingering on his mind “Although Mal runs so fast, he still couldn’t run past fate. Your fate is like that of Mal, you are agile, fast and swift, your fate is right in front of you. Your illness that you have been battling with for a long time, its cure is right in front of you, it’s now up to you to be smart like Mal and never miss the chance”

A small breath left him. “It only revealed you.” “We did not kneel tonight because fate commanded it,” he went on. “We kneel because we saw you stand where others would have fled.” “Because you bled for a realm that would not have bled for you.” His gaze held hers. “Fate is not a chain. It is a thread—one that binds those meant to stand together.” “You stood alone to defend this realm.” Tharion’s voice softened. “But I assure you, my Queen, you will never stand alone again.”

“But why? She’s so young.” Ailm lowers her head slightly. “War is coming. I can feel it in my bones. I had no choice.” Caden reaches for her again—but freezes. On his palm, a strange mark glows: a circle with a cross inside. Ailm nuzzles it. “It’s like a current,” he says, shocked. “It’s an Ailm mark,” she explains. “We are fated. Not just mates—fated. A rare, divine connection.” Drake stiffens. “Will Baylee wear the same mark?”

At his side, a young attendant trailed with parchment and ink, scribbling furiously. “You stand,” the man continued, “on the threshold of destiny. The lottery has brought you here, but it is not chance that will keep you here. From seventy, only one may rise to the crown. The rest—” he let the word hang, dangerous and unfinished, “—will return home… or will not.” A hush fell so deep Everleigh thought she could hear her own heartbeat.

I was as good as dead. “Uhm, tonight is the full moon, Miss. Are you sure everyone voted correctly?” Grace asked in her voice. I gulped. I couldn’t speak. “I’m sure everyone did. And even if tonight is the full moon, what does it matter? Scared the big wolves are going to haunt you down?” Another student taunted. The potential Alphas, Betas and gammas hooted tauntingly. “You wish. The hunting game is on,” an omega retaliated. The others nodded in response. There was no way they would ever give in to the others. This was a fight for power and dominance. I was just hopelessly trapped in between.
