Kat’s POV As the song came to a close, I could barely contain the exhilaration coursing through me! I hadn’t realized how much I missed this. A love for music in all its forms was something each member of our group of friends shared. We used to sing karaoke or at open mic nights every chance we got. When Jesse and I broke up, it was just too awkward to continue. Larissa never wanted to join, saying she wasn’t musically inclined. And of course Jesse and I wouldn’t be singing together anymore. It was hard enough to avoid each other as it was. So we all just stopped going. Singing with Tyler tonight reminded me what a rush it was to do something I loved, especially when the crowd got into it like they were now. As soon as the music stopped, the crowd was on their feet cheering. Tyler picked me up and swung me around, obviously enjoying himself as much as I was. He hopped down off the stage then reached his arms up for me to jump to him, kissing me on the cheek as he set me on my fe

Hello Readers! Thank you so much for continuing to read An Unwanted Fate! I hope you are enjoying getting to know Kat, Reegan and Ryan so far. They've had a rocky start and I promise there more ups and downs to come on this roller coaster ride. There will also be a lot more mature content from here on out but I will continue to post warnings at the beginning of the chapter if it's about to get a little steamy so you can skip it if you prefer. This is book one of a three book series: The Celtic Wolf Series. It is actually complete and I will continue to post almost daily until all chapters are published. Book 2 is underway. I will post progress updates on book two once I've finished uploading this book. I'd love to hear your thoughts so far. Feel free to leave comments at any time!

Reegan’s POV “Fuck” I roared as I punched a hole in my bedroom wall. I knew I had fucked up as soon as the words left my mouth and I saw the pain flash in Kat's eyes before she masked it. I had taken the one thing she needed to heal from, the one thing we needed her to heal from in order to allow herself to accept us, and torn the scar wide open, leaving a fresh, gaping wound. Why the fuck couldn’t I just keep my damn mouth shut? She had been so happy after she finished that song, even letting me shower her with affection without pulling away. And the way she was smiling at me, like I was her hero for giving her a simple compliment. Then I went and let my own insecurities ruin it. What a fucking idiot! Rikkon couldn’t agree more, berating me in my head. “You hurt mate! You made her sad!” He accused. “You think I don’t fucking know that?!” I barked back at him. “I already know I don’t deserve her. I prove it every time I open my mouth. What do you want from me?” He didn’t an

Ryan’s POV I stared at myself in the bathroom mirror, barely recognizing the guy looking back at me. Between my own riot of emotions and Teague pacing and pawing in my head all night, I hardly slept a wink. As a result, my eyes were bloodshot and had dark, bruise-like half-moons underneath. My normally perfectly tousled waves were now in snarled knots sticking out from my head, probably from tossing and turning all night. If Kat didn’t let us back in her bed, I may never have another good night’s sleep the rest of my life. The thought alone was exhausting! Shoving that depressing thought aside, I splashed some cold water on my face and went to work combing through the knots in my hair. I threw on a pair of gray sweatpants and a white t-shirt then headed out the door to meet Reegan. We agreed to go see Kat together this morning to ask her to come to the lake with us and our friends. I was anxious to talk to her and see how she reacted to us after last night’s events. Part of me hop

Ryan’s POV “Hang on!” I warned as we hit the rocky trail that led down to the lake. Normally, I would hit the gas and enjoy the full off-roading experience on the drive down. With Kat in the truck, I tried to take it easy but it was still a bumpy ride. Reegan’s face paled as he held her tighter against himself. Neither of us could stomach the thought of her getting hurt, even a little bit. By the way she was whooping and laughing, she didn’t seem the least bit worried. “That was awesome!” Kat shouted as we pulled to a stop at the makeshift parking area by the lake. “Can we go faster on the way back?” Reegan looked like he was going to be sick just thinking about that idea. “Fuck no! That is not happening!” He linked me angrily. I understood his concern. We’d both do anything to prevent even a single hair on her head from being harmed if we could. But I also found it extremely difficult to deny her anything. Especially when she looked at me with that pleading look she had on

Ryan’s POV “Hold your breath Angel! You’re going under!” I warned. She squealed loudly as I pulled her down with me. We broke through the surface at the same time, me laughing and Kat sputtering. She flung her long hair off her face and wiped the water out of her eyes, then immediately began her feeble attempt at revenge. “You dickhead!” She yelled, but couldn’t stifle her giggles long enough to be taken seriously. She was splashing me furiously but it was like a gnat trying to swat a human. It just made me crack up harder. Reegan was standing behind her, waist deep in the water, roaring with laughter as well. “She’s like an angry little pixie!” He howled, almost sobbing from laughing so hard. Offended by his comment, Kat turned her attention in his direction. She slowly sauntered over to him until they stood face to face. Reegan was looking down at her warily, trying to contain his mirth. She reached up and placed both hands on his chest, slowly running them down to his stom

Weird, but maybe off-roading wasn’t his thing. “Did you have fun today, baby girl? He asked, quickly changing the subject. “I had an amazing time! The lake was beautiful and everyone was so nice! I really enjoyed hanging out with all your friends too!” I gushed. “Thank you for including me!” I really did have a great time. When they suggested going to the beach, I was so excited. There was no beach in RedWoods so it wasn’t something I got to do very often. And I did have a good time hanging out with everyone. Zoe and Julia were such nice girls. They made me feel like I belonged in their tight circle of friends. I had already bonded with Dillon over warrior training. Zayne seemed a bit shy, but was sti

Kat’s POV Ryan took my hand, pulling me over to the comfy looking overstuffed couch facing a huge big screen tv at one end of his room. Now extricated from my cage between the twins, I could look around and fully take in this space that reflected his unique personality. While the walls were the same full round logs as in the room I occupied, the decor was totally different. Navy blues and forest greens comprised the major color scheme. A few pictures, mostly of woodland scenes adorned the walls. But what really caught my attention was the large, built-in bookcase that lined one entire wall, filled with rows upon rows of various titles. I gasped in delight as I walked over to take a closer look. The boys were quiet, just watching as I ran my hand over the spines, humming in appreciation at the collection. “This is amazing!” I exclaimed. “How long did it take you to collect all these?” Ryan walked over to stand next to me. “Some of them belong to the pack, passed down for generations.

Thank you so much to all mu lovely readers for sticking with "An Unwanted Fate" until the end. I hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I did while writing it! I hope to start publishing Book 2 in the Celtic Wolf serie:: "A Tangled Fate: Bound By Her Betas" within the next week. Sneak peek: “Mate!” My wolf howled. “She’s ours!” “What are you talking about, Callum? She can’t be ours, not yet.” My wolf whimpered and whined in my head, begging me to go to our mate. I felt his pain but I knew I couldn’t give him what he wanted. So I did the only thing I could do. I ran. When Finnick Cross recognizes his mate in 16-year-old Sarah Woods, he is ecstatic to find the girl he loves belongs to him. There is only one problem. She’s too young to recognize him as her mate. Afraid he won’t be able to restrain his wolf from claiming their underage mate, Finnick decides to leave, intending to return and claim her as his on her 18th birthday. But when an unplanned encounter derails his plans, wil
An Unwanted Fate Bonus Chapter: Jesse
Jesse's POV I’d been locked in this room all night without seeing another soul. I assumed the Glass Lake Alphas knew I was here and why. Their Beta would have told them by now. I’d fully expected them to come storming in here last night, fuming over what I’d done, or tried to do, to their Luna. I would have gotten some small satisfaction from it if they had, knowing I’d at least ruined their perfect night. But they never came. It could have been worse. I could tell this was a room for prisoners by the stark, slate-gray concrete of the walls and lack of amenities. But it wasn’t the dank, rancid-smelling lower cells reserved for the vilest offenders. Perks of being a fellow Alpha I guessed. Still, I didn’t want to spend any more time here than absolutely necessary. The room had no windows so I had no way of knowing what time it was when I finally heard two sets of footsteps approaching in the hall. Despite my wolf, Ares, whimpering in my head, I puffed out my chest and squared my sh
An Unwanted Fate Bonus Chapter: Jenna
Jenna's POV “Aaaaaahhhh!” I screamed as I angrily stomped back and forth in my tiny cell. Not that I could go very far in either direction. And not that anyone could hear me scream. I knew there was a guard down here somewhere. I could smell him. But he never came close enough for me to see him. If I could just get him to come closer, I was sure I could manipulate him to help me out of here eventually. But no. I was only given food and water once a day and even then, it was one of the nasty old she-wolves from the kitchen who brought it to me. After Reegan had brought that bitch down here to see me, one of the warriors must have come to increase the length on my chains. I was unconscious at the time from . . . well I wasn’t exactly sure what she’d done to me. All I could remember was being slammed into the wall by something powerful I couldn’t see. At least I wasn’t hanging from the ceiling anymore but it was a small victory. When I’d asked why I was being offered such civility
An Unwanted Fate Bonus Chapter: Damien and Trista
Damien’s POV I was sitting at my desk, absently bouncing a rubber ball against my closed office door. Throw, bounce, catch, repeat. It was all I was good for today. That and getting lost in my thoughts of her. Tossed aside on the corner of my desk, taunting me with its presence, was the invitation to the mating ceremony for Kat and her Glass Lake Alphas. It had arrived today and I had been totally blindsided by it. I shouldn’t have been. I knew it was coming. I just hadn’t expected it to be so soon. I’d ignorantly thought I’d have at least a month or more to adjust to the idea. “It hasn’t even been a week, for Goddess’ sake!” I complained out loud to my empty office. “Boss, the transfer from Snowy Mountain is at the gate. I’m going to meet her now. I’ll bring her by your office for an introduction before I give her an official tour. If she’s hot, it might be an extended tour.” My Gamma, Eric, chuckled in my head. “Sure, whatever.” I responded unenthusiastically. I’d been s
An Unwanted Fate Bonus Chapter: Ian and Isabella
Ian’s POV I looked down at the beautiful she-wolf in my arms as we danced together at Kat’s mating ceremony reception. I inhaled her mouthwatering strawberry scent and drank in her beauty. Her silky auburn hair that flowed in soft waves down her back, shining like the embers of a fire. Her eyes that sparkled like emeralds and danced with happiness when they looked at me. I enjoyed the feel of her lush curves as she pressed her body tight against me, the soft swell of her breasts against my chest and the flare of her hips where my hands fit so perfectly. I itched to lower them and feel the flesh of her perfect ass in my hands, but I forced myself to behave. There would be time for that later. Resting my cheek on her head, I chuckled to myself as I thought back to how nervous I’d been during those first weeks as we both learned to navigate our new relationship. All I’d ever known of women was Elena, Katalina’s mother and my first mate. But I never wanted Isabella to feel like she
An Unwanted Fate Epilogue Part 3
*Warning: This chapter contains mature content of a sexual nature. Kat's POV I vaguely wondered how I ended up here, sandwiched between my two sexy mates, their hands roaming my body and muddling my mind. All I had wanted to do was lay by the pool, read a book, and relax but now all I could think about was the need to feel them touching me and kissing me, to have them both buried inside me. It was all-consuming, pushing every other thought aside. Reegan was lavishing my tits with attention, sucking at my hardened nipples like a starving man. He had one muscular thigh between my legs, pressed against my core and I couldn’t stop myself from grinding against him. The dampness between my legs was quickly soaking through my bikini bottoms, running down my thighs and soaking his leg. When Ryan stepped up behind me and sucked on his mark, my knees went weak. He slipped his arms around my waist, holding me up as his brother released my nipple with a tug of his teeth and stood up to capt
An Unwanted Fate Epilogue Part 2
Reegan's POV I was totally in the zone, killing my workout, when all of a sudden I felt my wolf get anxious. He was pacing around in my head, all amped up. “Rikkon, what’s up man?” I ask, starting to get anxious myself. “Something’s wrong with mate! She’s upset! We need to go check on her now!” he whined back at me. He didn’t need to tell me twice! Since marking Kat, our wolves were so in tune to each other, it was like some of her Celtic wolf’s intuition was shared with us through the bond. If Rikkon felt something was wrong, then something was wrong. I was already moving towards the door. Not wanting to wait on the elevator, I took the stairs at wolf speed. In less than a minute I was flying through the door of our hotel room, slamming it against the wall as I flung it open. “What the fuck is going on in here?” I yelled as my eyes frantically searched the room for my baby girl. My wolf led me straight to her wolf so I knew she was here somewhere but I didn't see her. Tha
An Unwanted Fate Epilogue Part 1
Ryan’s POV “I’m gonna head to the gym, get in a work-out before we take our girl out tonight. Wanna join?” Reegan asked. We were walking back from the hotel restaurant after enjoying breakfast with our mate. It had been several weeks since our mating ceremony and we were finally taking a much needed trip alone together. We would've liked to go sooner, but with the impending threat of the Dark Fae, and so much unknown about them, we couldn’t leave our pack unprotected. It had taken a while to mobilize our allies to send some of their warriors to reinforce our security. We’d decided to honeymoon at a five-star luxury resort on a tropical island and had just arrived yesterday afternoon. My brother and I had considered so many options when deciding to surprise Kat with this trip but with all the stress of the last few months and the uncertainty of the future, we settled on a place we could truly relax and unwind, just enjoying each other’s company. “You should go!” Kat offered. “I’
An Unwanted Fate Ch. 163 My Forever
*Warning: This chapter contains mature content of a sexual nature. Kat’s POV For a moment, I lost myself in the beautiful seafoam green eyes staring deep into my soul when suddenly, I was pulled to my knees. Ryan reached out, grasping the low-cut V of my dress and ripped it right down the middle, leaving me completely bare to their view. “Fuck! I loved that dress on her.” Reegan cursed. “We’ll buy her a new one.” Ryan dismissed him. “It was in my way.” Then, coming along either side of me, they both helped to lay me gently on my back. I watched, practically drooling, as they stepped back and slowly discarded their own clothes, piece by agonizing piece. They were moving lazily, like they were completely unaware of the aching need I had for them to touch me. “Relax, Angel. We’re going to take care of you.” Ryan’s voice was full of erotic promises. Reegan tucked his arms under me and rolled me to my stomach. I could feel their heated gazes burning into me and I heard what sounde
