DAYA POV “Hey! Let us out! We haven’t done anything wrong! Fucking assholes!” “Amy, stop yelling. Nobody is listening to us. Save your energy.” “Sorry, I’m not willing to just roll over and be held captive like you, Emmy. Maybe you’re into bondage, but not me.” “Chill out Amy! We are in this together. We all told Daya we would be here with her no matter what. This is the no matter what.” “Saph is right. Can we just calm down and wait for Daya to wake up? I wish they would take those chains off her. Is she going to be okay, Saph?” “Yea, Pearl. She’s going to be fine. I’ll try and wake her again.” “No need. I’m awake. Hard not to sleep with you four squawking at each other.” I roll over, facing my sisters in the opposite cell. I flinch as the silver chains shift around my wrists and ankles, burning untouched parts of my skin. At least they had the kindness to give me a long shirt, so I didn’t have to stay naked after my fight with Darius. I hate him for putting my sist

DARIUS POV Scraps of paper are flying all around me. Splintered furniture is scattered all over the floor. Dust particles from the wall being punched repeatedly fill the air. My office is no longer a quiet sanctuary; it is a portal of chaos and fury. I can’t stop. I need to destroy everything. If I stop, I will feel everything. Images and brief memories threaten to invade my mind. Stolen glances with Daya. I punch a wall to forget. Holding her in my arms and feeling those wonderful sparks. I slam a chair down on the floor. Hearing her laugh while we run through the woods together. I scream and roar to drown out her beautiful voice. I don’t even hear Lucas creep into my office. “Darius, you have to stop!” He shouts to me. I don’t know how long I’ve been in self-destruct mode. I reach for a photo of Calvin that made its way onto the floor. I clutch it tightly in my hand and bring my arm back, ready to smash it against the wall. Before I can release the picture frame, I feel

DAYA POV “Daya?! What’s wrong? Is it the chains?” Pearl asks in a complete frenzy. I am unable to answer as my body is wracked with intense pleasure and surges of energy. My wolf is pressing forward, trying to take control. But the silver in the chains is forbidding the shift and causing her pain. It’s a crazy see-saw of pain and pleasure I’m experiencing. “What the fuck?” I hear Amy’s confusion as well. I almost want to laugh at her response. But all my focus is on trying to placate my wolf. She is battling me for control, even more, this second full moon, unwilling to not have the mate bond confirmed. “Amy, Pearl, relax. She is okay. Sort of. It’s a full moon. The mate bond is manifesting again. It will be like this all night until the moon is gone,” Amy says solemnly. I turn away from my sisters, facing the cold, concrete wall. I can’t bear to see them pitying me in this state. I have officially hit the lowest point in my life- bound in silver chains, in a dungeon, sufferi

DARIUS POV One minute, I’m uncovering hidden secrets about my brother. The next, I’m feeling the intense, and all-too-familiar pull of the full moon. The mate bond. My wolf is pushing forward, trying to take control. He is fighting me more than last month. “Are you okay, Darius?” Lucas asks me with a combination of confusion and concern. All I can do is nod. I struggle against the urges of my wolf and practically run out of my office. I hear Lucas right behind me. I’m briefly forced to the back of my mind. When I regain control, we are standing outside the building that holds the dungeons. I begin pacing back and forth, my hands running through my hair. “She’s here…” I growl. “Who is here?” Lucas asks. “My mate. She is here. In the dungeons,” I say angrily. I’m angry at myself for having my mate locked up. I am also angry at her still. She lied to me over and over. I don’t know if I can truly trust this bond. My wolf is going crazy, fighting me for control to find our
Fearing Fate Chapter 49
DAYA POV Emotional rollercoaster doesn’t come close to describing the last 48 hours. Perhaps emotional pendulum? We have swung back and forth, from one extreme to another. Yet, it seems like that suits our journey. We have both lost so much and were gifted with so much hope and promise with this mate bond. It makes sense that we both would be hesitant to trust the bond, much less each other. I certainly didn’t help matters much by trying to deceive Darius. Never again. This man has proven time, and time again, that I can trust him, and that he is willing to trust me, even after I hurt him. My feelings for Darius become even stronger as he ravishes my body. My Goddess, this man, and his tongue could save the world if oral sex was the key to happiness…well, it may just be. But I refuse to share him, or that skilled tongue with anyone else. The world can implode around us, and as long as Darius is between my legs, I’d die happy, and oh, so satisfied. As I come down from my intens

JUSTIN POV I’m in a small, musty gym. Surrounded by rusty barbells, old sandbags, and gym equipment covered in a film of dust. It isn’t much, but it is what I have available to me here, at my current home. Or, at least where I am staying until I win my title as Alpha of the Running River Pack. I slam a heavy medicine ball onto the ground, imagining that it is Darius’ body. A sadistic grin spreads across my face as my brow is dripping with sweat. “You don’t want to wear yourself out for tomorrow. Take it easy,” says the familiar voice of wisdom, who has become more of a father figure to me over the years. I look up at him as I scoop up the medicine ball. My chest is now covered in a layer of sweat, mixed with dirt and dust from the old equipment. “Just getting in a short session to help settle my nerves,” I reply to him as I slam the ball down to the floor again. He walks over to me and clicks his tongue. That’s his way of signaling disapproval. I tense knowing I’ve said the w
Fearing Fate Chapter 51
DARIUS POV I wake up early in the morning, feeling the light rays of the sun over my eyelids. I feel her warm body curled into mine. I hear her light breathing and her heartbeat is steady, matching my own. Her face is pressed into my chest, and I can feel her starting to drool on me. I try to hold back my laughter, so I don’t wake her. I gently stroke my hand through her hair, which is pretty messy after our evening activities. I replay the moment we looked into each other’s eyes and said we loved one another at the same time. That moment only confirms that we were made for each other. We didn’t mark each other last night. I know I wanted to, and my wolf was clawing at the front of my mind to put our mark on her beautiful neck. But we still don’t know what will happen if we complete the mate bond. Is the Fated Plague really over? I’m not ready to risk Daya’s safety and I don’t need to mark her to know that she is totally mine. I feel her beginning to stir and I wrap my arms tig
Fearing Fate Chapter 52
DAYA POV Darius stood up once we heard alarms, and I could see his eyes glaze over from mindlinks coming through. No doubt it was the warriors warning us that Justin has arrived for the challenge. He returned his attention to all of us in his office, and he takes my hand in his. “It’s time,” he says to me. I nod my head and follow him out of the office followed by the others. “Justin can’t see you with me. He needs to believe you’re still in the dungeon,” he says as we approach the first floor of the pack house. Emmy comes up next to me and tugs me in the opposite direction of Darius. “We will shift and run to the clinic. " We will stay out of sight until the challenge is over,” Emmy says, leading me away. “Saph, Amy, and Pearl?” I ask her. “They are safe in my apartment. They won’t come out until the all-clear is given,” she tells me, giving me a small sense of relief. I quickly turn around and grab Darius’ hand once more. He stops and looks down at me, squeezin
