Lahat ng Kabanata ng Taming His Alpha Brother: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

Flashback to the day after the cocktail party. Asher woke up to the sound of his beeping phone. As he slowly stirred to consciousness, he blinked against the dim lights streaming in through the slits in the blinds. He was alone...again, in Zane's bed. There was no imprint beside him and he could tell Zane must have left a long time ago. It wasn't shame that filled his chest as he stared up at the black chandelier swaying on the high ceiling. It was...disappointment. A part of him felt Zane owed him some type of courtesy...especially after what happened yesterday. When Zane had pulled him into a hug for those brief moments...Asher thought something was going to change in their dynamics. Not that he wanted it to. he still fucking hated Zane, but with the time Asher has had to think about it, he realized that Zane was his only shot at getting his Alpha designation back. But Zane wouldn't help him. He had nothing to offer Zane. Zane had taken his company and had the fucking upperhand ov

As Asher mumbled the words, his mind drifted to the morning of the day he was taken to this room after the video went viral. He arrived at the West Villa after his grandfather ordered him to appear at once, and the moment he stepped into the house, a slap had cracked across his face, splitting his bottom lip. His vision spun, and his back hit the wall, knocking the breath from his lungs. Within the blink of an eye, Robert's hand was on his throat, squeezing as spittle flew from the old man's lips."Disgusting. Filthy and fucking vile! Is this your idea of rebelling because I made your brother CEO of LexiPharm? Creating the biggest scandal on the night of this family's anniversary?"Though what happened wasn't his fault and he hadn't known what the fuck he was doing, Asher had just stood there, swallowing back the burn in his eyes as his grandfather's words pierced him. He couldn't say a word to defend himself, or else he would have to tell everyone he was an Omega. Keeping the secre

Zane's eyes narrowed, and the softness from moments ago slipped away. A mocking smile twisted his lips, and he gave a nod. "Alright." His words were sarcastic as though daring Asher.Not one to ever back down from a challenge, Asher pushed himself upright in the tub, determined to prove he wasn't some fragile thing in need of rescue. He stepped out of it, and just like in the bedroom, his knees had turned to jelly, and they didn't provide any support at all. The world tilted, and he let out a soft gasp as he felt himself falling, but strong arms caught him before the cold tile could.For one suspended heartbeat, they just stared at each other. Their faces were so close that Asher could see the dark ring around Zane's irises, and he could also feel the brush of Zane's minty breath over his face. The electricity between them tingled and zapped until it finally snapped taut, and Zane stepped back, breaking the moment."What did you say again?" Zane mocked, helping him stand upright. "You

Everyone in the conference room was still processing the man's claims when Zane's voice cut through the shocked silence. "Out. All of you."The command in his tone left no room for hesitation. Immediately, chairs scraped against the floor and the scientists in the meeting with Zane shuffled to their feet with dumbfounded looks on their faces. The room empties one by one, each of them giving Zane a quick glance before slipping out.The homeless-looking man who claimed to be Asher's father stayed where he was as the security guards let go of his arms, leaving the room as well to stand right outside the door. His brows lifted in mild surprise, as though he hadn't expected every single person in the room to obey anyone but...well, Asher, the man he'd named.Lips curling in doubt and curiosity, he turned to look at Zane. "So...you're the one in charge now? Where is Asher? Isn't he the boss anymore?""That's right," Zane replied in a flat voice, staring at the man who disrupted his meeting.

This was all Zane's fault.Asher could feel his pulse throbbing in his throat. Why the fuck did he even agree to join this Alpha in his car?! No one should know Asher was no longer an Alpha but with the way this guy… Ethan—or whatever his name was—kept looking at him with interest and lust convinced him that his secret was out.But Asher was desperate to guard his dignity, “Why are you fucking hitting on me? Do I fucking look like an omega to you?” He snapped, shocking Ethan who just eyed him with a puzzled look.Asher frowned when a low, smooth laugh bubbled from Ethan.“I apologize,” the man said between laughs. “Who would've thought that an Alpha and Alpha relationship was a taboo these days?”It wasn't.Heat burned Asher’s face as a wave of embarrassment crashed into him. He could barely hold Ethan’s gaze.God.This was mortifying. Out of desperation and fear, he’d acted irrationally.No doubt he’d almost given himself away.“No need to look so embarrassed, Asher,” Ethan said so
