Fated Series

By Mother CombsPublished 12 months ago Updated 12 months ago 2 min read

Introducing the Fated Series, a set of stories about a serial killer and his predestined victims. Written from the killer's perspective, these twisted short stories are psychological horror at its creepiest.

Book One -- Fated

Follow along as sweet, fearful Freda is preyed on by a stalker who sees a confrontation between them as something written in the stars.

Book Two -- Fated Stalker

Join our killer as he takes a trip down memory lane and savors the images of Freda and their fated encounter.

Book Three -- Ill-Fated

Catch up with our killer as he follows Teri Meekman around. Teri claims to be a working journalist, he knows who she is.

Book Four -- Fated Watcher

Sit with our killer as he eavesdrops on the Police Chief and the District Attorney, trying to find out if they have any leads on the two murders he's committed.

Book Five -- Fated Target

Our killer can't believe his luck. He's been given a third chance in this incarnation, for his fated one has already been reincarnated into his life.

Book Six -- Fated Urgency

With time running out, our killer continues stalking his latest prey, looking for the perfect opportunity for him and his eternal beloved to have their tryst.

Book Seven -- Fated Memories

Missing his earlier chance, our killer isn't letting another opportunity slip through his fingers. Hiding close by, he watches and bids for the preordained time to finally come around.

Book Eight -- Fated Intrusion

Breaking into the house where his destiny is staying, our killer is on the hunt, ready for the predestined meeting. Quietly, he checks behind closed doors for where she may be sleeping.

Book Nine -- Fated Showdown

Our killer and his predetermined destiny are finally together again, for the third time in this incarnation. How will their predestined meeting go? Will he prevail over his eternal nemesis?

A/N: This was an accidental series in which I originally intended to write only one short story. The first story was so well received and many of my readers asked me for more, therefore I decided to carry the story further to an ending. These stories were completely different for me to write, having never done a whole series from the viewpoint of a serial killer. I hope those who read the stories enjoy them as much as I have while writing them.

    Excellent! I haven’t read any of these, when did you write it? As I don’t remember seeing it. I’ll have to get onto it soon. I like serialised stories.

  • Oh yes, I freaking enjoyed them immensely! Thank you soooo muchhhhhh for this series!

    This series sounds seriously gripping! It’s awesome that what started as a short story turned into a full-blown saga. 😊✨
