BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

Derek Pov"Just ten weeks left until the ceremony, and then everything will be yours, brother," Adrian said as we ran through the mountains. From the right spot, the entire pack's land unfolds before your eyes like a vast, living map. I smirked, glancing over the expansive land below.Our pack held one of the largest territories, a testament to its strength. This was what I had been trained for all my life, shaped to lead. My parents were unmatched, the strongest Alpha pair in our history. For years, my parents had ruled with an iron fist, their strength unchallenged and their leadership unquestioned. No one dared to defy them, and any threat that dared approach was swiftly eliminated. They were untouchable, legends in their own right.But now, everything is changing. My power had grown, and the pack couldn’t help but notice. Whispers spread like wildfire. When a new strength rises, the pack naturally gravitates toward it. It wasn’t about disrespecting my father or forgetting all h

BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

Seven months earlier Dinner had started off like any other—quiet conversation, the clinking of cutlery, and the warm glow of candlelight filling the room. But the atmosphere shifted when my father set his fork down, his tone turning authoritative.“Derek, you’ll lead the patrol tonight,” he said firmly.I nearly choked on my drink. “What? Tonight? I already made plans!”My father’s eyes darkened, a subtle warning in their depths. “This isn’t up for debate. You’re the future Alpha, and leading patrols is a vital responsibility. It’s about ensuring the safety of the pack, maintaining order, and—”“Yeah, yeah, keeping everyone safe,” I interrupted, frustration bubbling up. “But why tonight? You’ve never cared if I skipped before.”“You need to start taking responsibility, Derek,” he replied, his tone unyielding. “When the pack sees the Alpha’s son out there, ensuring our borders are secure, it reassures them. They need to know you’re ready to lead.”I glared at him, ready to argue more,

CHAPTER 3

BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

Ava Hot tears welled up in my eyes as the door slammed shut, the echo of my mother’s scorn still ringing in my ears. "You’re a disgrace," she’d said, her words like knives carving into the fragile shell of my pride. "You’ll never run with the pack. You’ll always hide indoors, just like you always do.”It was the full moon tonight—a night that called every wolf to the run, to revel in their strength and unity. Every wolf but me.The tears I’d fought so hard to contain now spilled freely, streaking my cheeks as I collapsed onto the edge of my bed. My eyes, already swollen from the countless nights I’d cried, burned with fresh grief. Was it my fault that I was born prematurely , Was it my fault that my spine twisted as it did, or that I couldn’t shift when others did .I remembered my father’s stories about my mother when I was younger, how she was the pride of the pack. She had admirers, wolves who envied the one destined to be her mate. My father had beamed with pride when he discov

CHAPTER 4

BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

My wolf had shredded my clothes to ribbons during my shift, leaving me no choice but to sprint home naked through the cool forest.The house was silent when I arrived; the pack was still out on their run. Relief washed over me as I slipped inside, my heart pounding from the night's events. I drew a warm bath, hoping to soothe both my aching body and my frayed nerves. As the water cascaded over me, my emotions spilled over too. Uncontrollable sobs wracked my chest as I replayed the events of the night—the rejection, the disgust in Derek's eyes. The dream of a mate who would cherish me, love me for who I was, shattered like glass underfoot.Tears blurred my vision as I whispered my frustrations to the Moon Goddess. “Why?” I asked, my voice trembling. “Why him? Why not someone else—someone who could see me, accept me for what I am?”Growing up, I’d always fantasized about having a mate who would look past my imperfections, someone who wouldn’t care that I was weak, that I didn’t fit th

CHAPTER 5

BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

DEREK'S POV The weight of responsibility pressed against my chest as my father’s words echoed through the phone “Joshua and Andrea found themselves as mates during the pack run,” he announced. “As the soon-to-be Alpha, Derek, you’ll have to give them your blessings. I’ll be there as well.”A snort escaped my lips. The irony. Here I was, mated to the pack’s runt—a bond I refused to accept—and yet I was expected to celebrate another pair’s perfect union. Could my day get any worse?Before I could stew further in my misery, my door burst open. Selene walked in, her smugness radiating off her like a foul perfume. Dressed in barely anything, she sauntered toward me with that look in her eye, the one that always made my stomach turn.“How the hell do you keep getting into my house?” I muttered under my breath.“Come on, Derek,” she purred, closing the distance between us, her fingers trailing up my arm. “Why are you fighting this? We’d be perfect together.”I pushed her back, my patience

AVA“Look at how Andrea’s parents spoke to us,” my mother’s voice cracked like fragile glass as she entered the house, her eyes red from unshed tears. I could hear the weariness in her tone.“When will this embarrassment end?” she sobbed. “Even after giving birth to three strong, healthy sons, all they remember is the mistake I gave birth to first.”The mistake.The word rang like a death knell in my ears. I clung to the walls of the hallway, my breath coming in shallow bursts. They were talking about me. Tears burned at the edges of my vision, blurring everything around me. My mother… my own mother.Blake had told me to stay in my room—to not hi listen. But how could I not? My curiosity had brought me here, and now the weight of her words crushed my chest.“Andrea’s parents rejected Joshua because of me,” I whispered to myself. My condition—my twisted spine, my premature birth—had stained my family’s reputation like a scar that would never fade.Would Blake’s or Paul’s mates hate the

CHAPTER 7

BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

DEREKI couldn’t stop thinking about the night before.My wolf had been restless all day, his guilt echoing through me like a distant growl. It was his connection to her wolf that alerted me—her wolf had said Ava wanted to end it all. The thought sent chills down my spine, even now. I had no choice but to rush to the river where she was, guided by that unbearable, familiar pull. I found her already deep in the water, her body barely visible under the moonlight as it reflected on the restless waves.The moment I plunged in after her, the icy water stabbed at my skin like thousands of tiny needles. My arms worked desperately to pull her lifeless form from the depths. When I finally dragged her ashore, her pale face was void of life. For the first time in my life, I was terrified. My hands trembled as I gave her mouth-to-mouth, pressing her chest repeatedly, praying to the Moon Goddess to spare her. Then—just as hope began to dwindle—her body jerked, and she gasped for air.But when s

The sparring grounds were quiet except for the sound of fists meeting flesh. Adrian ducked and swung, landing a clean hit to my side. For the fifth time that morning, I barely reacted, letting the blow push me back a step.“What’s gotten into you?” Adrian asked, lowering his fists. “I’ve never been able to land this many hits on you in one day.”I rolled my shoulders, trying to shake off the sluggishness. “Just tired, Adrian. That’s all.”Adrian frowned. “You’ve been tired for weeks. And it’s not just here. You’re distracted during meetings, you’ve been dodging everyone’s questions, and now you can’t even keep up in sparring. Come on, man, talk to me.”I sighed heavily, running a hand through my hair. “I’ve been thinking about bonded mate pairing,” I said flatly.Adrian blinked, taken aback. “Bonded mate pairing? Why? You’re the future Alpha—you have time to find your mate.”I shook my head, my gaze hardening. “Time isn’t a luxury I have, Adrian. The pack needs stability, and traditio

AVA As I sat on the edge of Derek’s massive bed, I couldn’t help but take in the size and grandeur of the room. It was enormous—larger than my family’s entire living space—with high ceilings and walls lined with shelves of books and artifacts that spoke of Derek’s status as the future Alpha. My eyes landed on the bed itself. It was a grand piece of furniture with dark, heavy posts and a thick mattress draped in luxurious navy-blue sheets. I sat stiffly, feeling like I didn’t belong in a space like this.My thoughts drifted back to what had just happened outside. Kora’s attack replayed in my mind—the insults, the hatred, and the humiliation I had endured in front of everyone. But what confused me most was Derek’s reaction. He had defended me , growled at Kora like a wolf ready to rip her apart, and carried me here as if I were something precious.“How could he do that after rejecting me?” . It didn’t make sense. He had made it abundantly clear that I wasn’t worthy of being his mate

CHAPTER 10

BOUND BY FATE, TORN BY CHOICES /Luciana Ink

After Derek left the room, shutting the door behind him, I found myself lost in thought. The kiss had left me dazed, a whirlwind of emotions coursing through me. I was torn between the pain of his rejection and the undeniable pull of our bond. Before I could fully process my feelings, there was a knock at the door, and the Alpha—Derek’s father—walked in.The Alpha’s presence was commanding yet kind, his gaze soft as he looked at me . "Ava," he started, his deep voice laced with regret. "I owe you an apology.”I blinked in surprise. "An apology, Alpha?"He nodded, stepping further into the room. "I’ve failed you, and for that, I’m deeply sorry. I didn’t realize the extent of what you’ve been through—how much you’ve endured in silence, hiding for years. As Alpha, my role is to protect every member of this pack, and I failed to do that for you.”I looked down, my voice barely above a whisper. "You have a lot on your shoulders, Alpha. You’re not just the leader of the pack—you’re a fath
