MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Forty-One: The Cost of the Key
Kael’s POVSomething is wrong. I feel it before I understand it.A sharp pull through the bond. Not pain exactly. More like pressure building behind my eyes the way it does before a storm breaks. Quiet. Heavy. The kind that makes your body tense before your mind catches up.I've held position at the tree line for over an hour. Far enough back that Marcus won't catch my scent immediately. Close enough that I can reach Serena in four seconds if everything goes wrong.The cabin looks peaceful from the outside. One thin line of smoke rising from the chimney. Warm light behind the single window. Trees pressing in close on all sides, But the bond tells a different story.It's been pulled tight since she walked away from me this morning. Like a rope stretched past its limit. I told myself that was just distance. Just the natural discomfort of her being outside my sight.Then twenty minutes ago something shifted. A flare. Sharp and sudden through the bond. Not fear, not physical pain, but rec
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Forty: The Mother's Choice
Serena’s POVThe paper shakes in my hand, not because of the words. Because of the handwriting. I know it; I've seen it on birthday cards. On grocery lists stuck to the fridge. On the note she left beside my bed the morning she told me we were moving. My mother wrote this."That's her handwriting," I say.” The room goes silent.Kael takes the paper from me gently and studies it. Then looks at Damien. "Where exactly did you find this?""On her dressing table. Folded once. Placed on top of a silver pendant I've never seen before." "What pendant?"Damien reaches into his pocket and produces a chain. A thin silver chain with a small crescent moon hanging from it. My legs almost give out."That's my father's," I whisper. Every head in the room turns to me. "My birth father." My voice sounds far away. "He wore it every day. My mother kept it after he died. She never took it out. Never showed it to anyone."Kael's expression shifts. "She left it deliberately.""She left it for me." I take th
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Thirty-Nine: What Woke Below
Kael’s POV“Don’t answer it.” The words leave me before I even know I’m speaking. The voice in the pool laughs, not loud, not wild, but worse, calm and ancient. Like it already knows we’re afraid.Serena stands beside me, frozen, her silver mark burning through the fabric at her collarbone. The black water keeps turning in slow circles. Too smooth. Too deliberate. Like something under it is testing the shape of the room. I grab her wrist.“We’re leaving.”The voice comes again, rolling up through the stone. “He can pull you away,” it says. “He cannot close what was opened.”Serena sucks in a breath. I pull her behind me and back toward the doorway. I don’t take my eyes off the pool.“Kael,” she says quietly, “the book.” Damn it. The black leather book is still on the altar. The water in the pool rises by an inch. Not splashing. Not flooding. Just lifting. Like a thing standing up under a blanket. I make a choice. “Stay there.”I move fast, cross the platform, and yank the book up with
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Chamber Below
Serena’s POV“Don’t touch it.”Kael’s hand closes around my wrist just as the stone door groans wider. Cold air spills out of the darkness beyond. Not fresh air, old air, buried air. The kind that has been trapped too long. I stare past him.The chamber on the other side is bigger than the one we’re standing in. Much bigger. A wide round space carved into the earth itself. Black stone. A low pool of still water in the center. And beyond it, on a raised platform, a narrow altar with chains bolted into the floor around it. Not prison chains, but restraint chains. My skin goes cold. “What is this?” I whisper.Kael doesn’t answer. He steps in front of me, torch raised, every line of his body tight and ready. Like he expects something to rush us from the dark, Nothing moves.That somehow makes it worse. The silver light under my collarbone burns hotter. The mark is pulling me forward. “Serena.” Kael’s voice is low. Sharp. “Stay behind me.” “I’m trying.” But it’s not true, not really. Somet
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Thing Beneath Us
Kael’s POV“What did it say to her?”The guard nearly drops his spear. He stands outside the lower cells with his back too straight and his face too pale. That tells me enough before he opens his mouth. “It spoke, Alpha, just once, to Lady Serena.” I don’t stop to answer. I push past him and head down the stone steps two at a time.The lower corridor is colder than the rest of the mansion. Damp. Quiet. The kind of quiet that makes every sound feel wrong.Serena is standing outside the last cell. She turns when she hears me. Her face gives nothing away at first. Then the bond catches up with me, not fear, not exactly. Shock, confusion, and something colder underneath both.The altered wolf is still chained to the far wall. Half-shifted. Bare skin split by those dark veins. Eyes half open. Breathing shallowly. It looks worse than before. Good. I stop beside Serena. “What did it say?”Her fingers tighten around the torch she’s holding. “It said I’m not the end of the prophecy.” She pause
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Thirty-Six: What They Saw
Serena’s POV“Don’t hide in here.”Maya shuts the door behind her and leans against it like she knows I’m thinking about locking it again.I’m standing by the window in a clean dress that still doesn’t feel like mine. Outside, the pack grounds are full of movement. Wolves carrying wood. Wolves digging. Wolves speaking in low voices that never quite rise into normal conversation. Mourning has its own sound. “I’m not hiding,” I say.Maya raises an eyebrow. “You’ve been in this room since sunrise.” “I nearly burned myself out saving your Alpha. I’m allowed a few hours.” “Our Alpha,” she corrects softly. I look away. That word still catches me: ours.Silver Crest still doesn’t feel fully like mine. Not after the way they stared when the battle ended. Not after what they saw me do. The light. The scream of those twisted wolves. The way they turned to ash.The way everyone looked at me after was not with gratitude but with fear.Maya sees the thought cross my face. Of course she does. “They
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Eleven: The Fracture
Kael’s POV"She's not on pack territory." The words hit me like a blade to the chest. I stare at the tracker kneeling in front of me. His head is bowed. His voice is steady, but I can smell his fear. "Explain." "We followed her scent to the eastern border, Alpha." He swallows hard. "It stops at the
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Ten: The Other Side
Kael’s POVThe scent hits me before I reach the tree line. Blood, fear, and something else underneath something that doesn't belong to my pack. I push harder. My paws tear into the earth. The forest blurs around me.Behind me, three of my wolves follow. I hear their breathing. Their heartbeats. The
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Nine: The Game Begins
Serena’s POV"You're scared of me." The words leave my mouth before I can stop them.Damien pauses mid-step. Slowly, he turns back to face me. The hallway is empty now. Just us. His smile is still there, but something behind it shifts. "Scared?" He tilts his head. "That's an interesting word.""You
MY STEPBROTHER ALPHA'S DIRTY OBSESSION Chapter Eight: The Warning
Serena’s POVI don't scream. I want to. The fear is right there, clawing at the back of my throat. But I swallow it down and force myself to think.Someone was in my room. While the whole mansion was in chaos. While wolves ran through the halls and guards shouted orders, I stood in Marcus's study,
