Bound by the Crimson SecretBound by the Crimson SecretVael.SomniaLanguage: English18+ 443.0K wordsOngoingIntroductionIn a metropolis split between oblivious humans and lethal Magics, survival means keeping my head down. I’m branded with an 'Unknown' mark—a bureaucratic curse that leaves me packless, covenless, and entirely alone. To the territorial Shifters I serve at the upscale Meridian diner, my magic is non-existent. But they don't know that my pale, eerie eyes can see the very fabric of the universe. I see the invisible threads of fate. Blue for cosmic friendships, black for deadly enemies, and the elusive, glowing crimson for true soulmates. I've spent my whole life as a silent spectator, watching fools fight destiny. But when I spot my own fated best friend accepting a marriage proposal from a man whose red thread belongs to someone else entirely, I break my one rule. I leave a cryptic warning. My good deed doesn't go unpunished. The next morning, a towering, fiercely arrogant Shifter tracks me down to my rundown apartment, demanding answers. Kaelen Cross is breathtakingly dangerous, aggressively dominant, and he despises me the second he assumes I’m just a lowly human interfering in Magic business. I'm perfectly prepared to slap this obnoxious jerk and throw him out on the street... until my gaze drops to his chest. A thick, pulsing crimson line connects his heart directly to mine. He is my ultimate soulmate. And he has absolutely no idea. There is no way I'm surrendering my fate to a pompous beast who looks down on me. I vow to keep the glowing red thread a secret to my grave. But Kaelen is a predator who refuses to let a mystery go, and ignoring the magnetic, electric pull between us might just be the one thing fate won't allow.AlphaFatedComedyFated MateTrueloveShifterComedyFantasyRomanceWerewolf300 ChaptersOngoingMay You LikeThe Alpha Boss's Fake BoySavage Void: The Pit Fighter's MateSweets for the Ruthless AlphaBound by Blood and VanillaBlood of the Forsaken LunaUnbound by Choice: Rejecting the Obsidian AlphaBloodline of Ashes: Rejecting the AlphaForged in SilverShattered Cages: The Alpha's Lethal MateSavage Chords: Claimed by the Vesperbourne PackRead now
