Book #2 in The Bonds of Fate series 

"I-I'm s-s-sorry." She wept bitterly, the tears flowing down her cheeks in an uncontrollable stream. "I c-can never g-give you what you want."

Vincent wanted nothing more than to hold her in his arms, comfort her, tell her that everything would be okay but in her current state it probably wouldn't be best. In fact, he wasn't even sure that she would even let him touch her. 

"Please little one," Vincent pleaded, taking a cautious step closer. "It's okay."

"No! It's not!" She continued to weep, her knees weakening. If she wasn't so hysterical she may have been fearful that she would've collapsed. Her sobs softened, until all she could do was repeat her broken plea in a haunting whisper: "I can't give you what you want."

"Baby, please, I don't understand." Vincent kept his voice calm, though it was really tearing him up to have to see his woman in such a way. It broke his heart to see her, curled up, bawling like a wounded child. He had to fight for control.

Another small step closer. He had to comfort her, to protect her- it was a burning need within him worse than anything he had ever felt before. However, there was nothing that could prepare him for the words that would come next. 

"I'm barren." 

***

For Spiraea Johnson, all she's known is the life of a slave. Constantly faced with the pain and suffering dealt by fate.

Alpha Vincent Russo wasn't prepared to find his mate, and he certainly wasn't prepared for her to be a impossible fragile thing that seemed damaged beyond repair. Encouraging her to open up, and earning her trust are ridiculously difficult especially when there seems to be danger lurking nearby.

Perhaps Vincent is exactly what the little one needs to finally feel worthy of love, or perhaps she might just crumble under the weight of change...

"Too tight, and it might shatter, too loose and it might let go..."

My mate. So weak. So pathetic. I have a weak and pathetic mate. I thought as I looked at her in disgust and displeasure. Just like me when I was human. She is human! I don't want a mate. I don't want a weak and pathetic mate! She can't fix me! She's nothing! Screw this! My thoughts were going berserk with the rushing flashes of my past. I tucked my hand through my hair roughly in an unsuccessful attempt to stop the replay of those horrible evocations. I laid her on the small grass patch at the side of the deserted road. She was half-conscious, so possibly she could hear me... "Hey!" I said, jerking her pale face gently. Blood was covering half of her face but she was still looking beautiful in the moonlight. The sparks weren't going unnoticed and I reminded myself that it was just the mate-bond. I was determined in my decision and there was no way I was going to change it. The girl opened her eyes slightly and with that, I did what I thought was right at that time. "I, Kane Wilson, reject you as my mate!" I said, with all the strength I could have mustered in my miserable state of emotions and with that, I left her there, feeling extreme pain in my heart. But I pushed that pain aside and ran from there in my ultimate inhuman speed. Away from her! Still feeling the Rejection Pain. *~*~*~*~*~*~* He rejected her when she didn't even know what he meant for her. And after nine years, when he met her again, he found himself craving for her, seeking her attention, her love. He had fallen for her... with no return. But would she accept him now?!

"No!" I say softy, choking back tears that were threatening to pour out. "It just can't be!" I say with my hands by head, squeezing my eyes as if it was all a nightmare that would be over soon. The words escape my lips in a louder tone than what I intended and with more anger, earning a blood curling growl that made me stagger back with fear. I feel my knees shake with dread as the words rush out of his mouth in another growl. "Mine!" He shouts before making his way over to me. The second he's a hand's distance away, he reaches out and grabs a handful of my hair -not caring of the tears that were raining down my cheeks- making me tilt my head back, and plants his fierce dominant kiss upon my sweet and naive lips. 16 year old Nora Faith, youngest of 4 and only daughter the of SilverRose Pack, grows more and more desperate as her 17th birthday is just around the corner and is unsuccessful after several months of searching for her Mate. They say when you turn 16, you can identify your Mate by their scent and by your own wolf. Then like a fairytale, they shower you with their love, kiss you whenever you want, mark you as their equal and so on. Short, simple and easy. But unfortunately for Nora, when you have 3 protective Alphas as your older brothers. hovering over you 24/7 like a hawk, and preventing you exploring the world, it doesn't get any easier. 20 year old Alpha Damon Romano is slowly loosing his humanity by waiting for his Mate for far too long. For him taking the position of being an Alpha at the mere age of 14 of the largest pack in North America because of his parents unexpected and tragic death, makes him the youngest Alpha ever. He considers that all male Mates should be dominant over their females and he wishes to set it as a rule by applying it to his darling Mate. Cold, Cruel, Heartless, Savage, Sinister? Surely the Moon Goddess would've made a mistake because everyone knows that pleasing the heartless alpha ain't no child's work.

Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.)

Alexander Wolf, the born-human descendant of the greatest pack of his world, is the sole heir of the Alpha of the prestigious Prime Crescent Pack. His birth has always been a calamity, a distress. Every breath he takes reminds him of the misfortune he's caused to his parents, family, and pack.

He's spent his life alone, hiding behind high walls and large doors whenever his parents tried to introduce him to the pack. But now, with his coming of age, he must step forward into alpha duties and serve his pack. Will he find himself ruling with grace, or will he run away like he always has? Will he give up his birthright due to the Moon Goddess's cruel twist of fate?

However, he can't escape the whispers within the pack: "Can a human really be our next Alpha? No way!" His life is already a mess, and the Awakening Ceremony, a significant milestone, has shaken him to his core. He doubts his ability to fulfill alpha duties and find a mate bond, especially without a wolf of his own. Will he find someone to accept him without being looked down upon? Can he satisfy his primal urges without being a werewolf himself? But he doubts whether he'll have a mate at all. Cover by @CuteFairyDust Started: 28/06/2024

This talk of war and death made the girl sick to her stomach, she could see the way it poisoned the man before her in a way that he liked.

*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it.

Slowly she began reaching her hand towards the animal, feeling compelled to touch it. Would it be as soft as it looked? Did it want her to touch it? The rain continued pelting them, but it felt like its eyes were drawing her into another space, where nothing else mattered. The sudden desire to be closer to this animal was beginning to overtake her mind, especially as her hand neared its head. The whole time the animal only watched her with those large eyes. She imagined it almost asking for her touch. It didn't cross her mind how she knew he'd be soft, or how she even knew the creature was a 'he' to begin with. As her finger just barely grazed the animal, multiples things happened. She felt something shock her causing her to pull her hand back, just as thunder and lightning sounded. When the light cleared the animals' eyes, were narrowed into slits, and it was growling. It was a deep menacing sound that sent her stumbling backward, heart wildly beating. It bared fangs the size of her hand alone dipping its head. Had her touch angered the animal into finally attacking her? She kept moving backward in the rain, slipping in her converses as the creature continued growling. It was then she knew she was prepared to run, no matter what happened.

I felt the bed dip as he sat down on the other side but I focused solely on my task until I was done. "This is a pillow barrier. Meaning, you don't breach this side of the pillows." I instructed, my voice firm. "What if I don't want anything between us?" Phoenix said in a husky voice, and I risked a glance. Bad choice. His eyes were dark and his gaze was on my lips, to my chest, then back to my lips. "Eyes up here, buddy." I snapped the third time his eyes went down to my chest. All he did was turn off the lights. When it was dark, he whispered," Can't I admire what is mine?" I had no answer, and turned on my side. He sighed. Despite taking two naps today, I was out cold the minute my head hit my pillow. I could only hope that in the morning, the pillow barrier was still there. ***** Adira has a secret, one she would do anything to protect.
