In the magical realm of Lunara, a fragile peace holds between the sunlit fairy groves and the shadowy lands of the shadow fae. But when corruption begins to spread across the borderlands, shy garden fairy Elira stumbles into a dangerous mystery-and an unexpected partnership with Kaelen, a rebellious shadow fae outcast. Their quest to uncover the source of the growing darkness reveals an ancient artifact tied to the realm's survival and a sinister plot by a power-hungry sorcerer. As they journey through perilous lands and face impossible odds, Elira and Kaelen find themselves drawn to each other in ways neither expected. But restoring balance to Lunara comes at a cost. As the final battle looms, Elira must make an unthinkable sacrifice-one that could save their world but shatter her heart forever. Wings of Destiny is a sweeping tale of love, bravery, and self-discovery, where two souls from opposite worlds must unite to fight the darkness threatening to tear them apart.

Chapter 1 A Dying Forest

The once-lush forest lay eerily silent, its vibrant greens replaced by brittle, blackened husks. Elira hovered just above the ground, her translucent wings trembling with unease as she surveyed the devastation. The air smelled of rot, a sour tang that clung to her throat. This wasn't natural decay-it was something far worse.

She knelt beside a wilting patch of wildflowers, their golden petals curled inward like clenched fists. Gently, she extended her hand, channeling a soft glow of emerald magic from her fingertips. The light enveloped the flowers, coaxing life back into their fragile stems. For a moment, they stood tall again, their color returning. But then, as if defying her efforts, the corruption surged back, black veins creeping through the petals until they crumbled to dust.

Elira recoiled, her chest tightening. This wasn't the kind of problem her magic could fix.

"Strange place for a garden fairy to be wandering," a voice drawled from the shadows.

Elira spun around, her heart leaping into her throat. Standing at the edge of the clearing was a figure cloaked in dark leathers, their wings faintly shimmering like oil slicks in the dim light. Shadow fae.

"And what's a shadow fae doing here?" she shot back, trying to keep the tremor out of her voice.

The fae stepped closer, revealing sharp features and piercing violet eyes. They smirked, a sharp-edged expression that didn't reach their eyes. "Investigating. Same as you, I'd wager. Except I don't kill plants in the process."

Elira bristled. "I was trying to heal them!"

"Well, you're not very good at it, are you?"

She opened her mouth to retort, then stopped. This wasn't the time for bickering. "Something's wrong with the forest," she said instead, her voice softening. "I've never seen anything like it."

The shadow fae's smirk faded. "Neither have I."

For a moment, they stood in uneasy silence, both staring at the decayed forest around them. Then the shadow fae extended a hand.

"Kaelen," they said simply.

"Elira," she replied hesitantly, shaking it.

"Looks like we're stuck figuring this out together," Kaelen said. Their tone was casual, but there was a flicker of something serious in their eyes.

Elira sighed, glancing at the corrupted forest once more. Whatever was happening here, it was bigger than either of them. And if they were going to stop it, they'd need to work together-whether she liked it or not.

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done. Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection. I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you." The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. The alpha, beta, and gamma are swimming with some of the older children and playing a game of Marco Polo. Someone yells, "Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain. The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, "Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"
