This book is authored by Kit Bryan. I’m an ordinary waiter, but I can see people’s fate, including Shifters. Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm. I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species. I can’t breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can’t make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don’t mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it’s interesting and all, but it just really doesn’t pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate. Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He’s an Alpha and my friend’s twin brother.
Strings of Fate 59 – Sleeping and shrieking “So Bellamy was telling me about some of the things Shifter men do to court women. Food and clothes and stuff.

57- Worries and worth “I didn’t use ALL the methods of courting, there are three main aspects to Shifter courting. First I show that I can provide for you with gifts of food and clothing.

56- Courage and courting He heads into my room and I take a minute to think. I’m proud of myself, sure I wanted to avoid that conversation, but I survived it, I didn’t run away. I follow Bellamy into my room. where he is tucking his phone and his tie into his pocket. “What time … Read More “Strings of Fate by Kit Bryan Chapter 56” »
Strings of Fate 55–Bedrooms and boundaries I wake to a light tugging in my hair. The room is still dark, so I have no idea how long I’ve been asleep. “Hello.” Bellamy says quietly, stroking my hair. I guess that explains the tugging. I stop and take in my situation. Once again, while sleeping we … Read More “Strings of Fate by Kit Bryan Chapter 55” »
Strings of Fate 54- Return and relax “Hello?” I’m surprised to hear Megan on the line instead of Darrien. “Ry! Are you okay? You’ve been gone a while.

53–Selfish and shy When we reach the grave from before, I stop and release his hand. It falls to his side. I stare at the grave and avoid his face. “You were right when you said I’m selfish.” I start. “I don’t know how to trust. Until now, I’ve never even tried to, not really, … Read More “Strings of Fate by Kit Bryan Chapter 53” »
52- Fight and flight I’m crying again. I don’t know what else to do. I think I need to talk to Megan. Megan! Is she okay?

What’s waiting … Read More “Strings of Fate by Kit Bryan Chapter 52” »
51- Relief and rejection “What are you going to do?” My voice is timid. Megan sighs, the sound is sad and… relieved? “I’m done lying to myself. I need to tell Tristan I can’t get married today.

50- Challenging and comfortable I glance out the window as we arrive at the compound. It’s very active for this early in the morning. It’s because of the wedding I suppose. It’s taking place in the meeting hall. It wouldn’t have been big enough for the engagement party, there were too many guests. But the … Read More “Strings of Fate by Kit Bryan Chapter 50” »
