“But he—”

“Patience, Tati,” Zhuri cooed. “All in good time. You know it yourself,” she reminded, “you’ve waited for centuries. What’s another night more?” 

***

For centuries, Tatiana has watched the love of her life die and be born again. Each time, their love would be cut short by the ravages of time. However, time was never something that could dull her love for him. 

If need be, she would spend her entire immortal life looking for the man she loves. However, what will happen to that love when he is reborn as a werewolf— the natural enemy to her vampirism?

Bound by destiny yet cursed by society, Tatiana must convince the love of her life, Xander, that their love is stronger than centuries of war and hatred. But in a world where wolves and vampires hate each other, in a world where their union is an anomaly, will she choose love or will she give up? 

Will she fight for her love, or will she let destiny’s curse prevail again?

[EXCERPT]

"What did you do to them, vampire?" Xander said disgustedly. 

Gritting her teeth, Tatiana wondered how she hadn’t heard nor smelled him entering her house. She should’ve. After all, her senses weren’t that much worse than a werewolf’s. Furthermore, it was Xander of all people. Tatiana could recognize his scent anywhere.

"What's wrong with you?” Tatiana asked angrily as she struggled under Xavier. “Do you now break and enter strangers’ houses just to assault them in your free time?” 

"I said,” Xander growled. “What. Did. You. Do to my wolves?"

The Alpha's Cursed Destiny

'Great, just what I needed to summarize my already messed up day,' Tatiana thought to herself, a permanent frown etching itself on her beautiful face. 


Of all the ways she had thought of this day to go on, her past and present coming together was never one of them. She didn't know when things had gotten so complicated, but the past three days had been hell for her. 


Karishma seemed to be in her own world when Xander and Elijah showed up, and she seemed comfortable around them. What was it that Tatiana didn't know about this children's centre? What was it that she needed to learn because, at this rate, she would be the first case of a vampire ever dying of a heart attack? 


Anyway, with her head high and a smile replacing the front on her face, she walked alongside Alistair toward the reception where the two wolves were. They seemed to be waiting for something, or maybe Karishma had told them to have a seat and wait.
