All Chapters of Bound To My Mate's Step Brother : Chapter 91 - Chapter 99

~MIKAEL~I poured the hot water into the bowl, grabbed both the towel and the bowl, and strode into the cave room.Godfather was on the bed, eyes closed like a defeated warrior. The rising of his chest was the only sign that he was alive — his skin had turned ghostly pale, so pale that I feared a single touch of my fingers could peel it away.I settled on the stool placed beside his bed. I dipped the towel into the bowl, let the water soak through it, and squeezed it before placing it on his face.As soon as the wet cloth made contact with his skin, his breathing hitched. His teeth clattered sharply, making it hard for me to look at him for too long.Guilt wrapped itself around me like an itch, poking at each side of my heart — a reminder of how ungrateful I was. However, this was the only place I could hold onto my sanity after Nyra's disappearance.My pulse thickened as I exhaled sharply. "Godfather," I mumbled under my breath. *So much for trying to protect my mate — I have failed

~JOSIE~The maiden brought in some delicacies for me and my father. This place was still just as I had left it. My hands reached for the silver cup; I pulled it close to my nose to inhale the sweet, savory metallic tang of blood that I had missed."She was a year-old human," Sani said, his deep red eyes focused on me, a proud smile etched on his face as I drank the contents."Why did you call me here?" I said, going straight to the point. I had never wanted to heed his call — if it hadn't been for what was going on in the pack, I wasn't sure I would have come.I closed my eyes in pure ecstasy; this one was definitely a sweet child. I only wished I had been given the privilege to drink from her directly, but Pa wouldn't allow it until there was a deal between us."How about we enjoy ourselves a little before getting to the main matter?" He raised his brows. I gritted my teeth and smiled back at him.I picked up the jar filled with blood and poured it into my empty cup. I took out a lar

~MIKAEL~Zera told me about an abandoned castle near the border of the werewolf kingdom. I wouldn't have paid it much attention, but she revealed that it had a strong barrier over it, which worried me.What if my mate had been taken there?So far, there had been no suspicious activity from the council — perhaps they were waiting for a year to pass before making their move. I came with only Natalia and O'Lean, two people I trusted deeply.I could have brought Josie, but she had been sulking ever since that night.We had been searching the woods for the castle; Zera was working on breaking down the barrier, which would take some time."Are you sure she'll be here?" O'Lean inquired."I don't know, but we have to keep looking. Hopefully we'll find a clue," I said. We kept moving, pushing leaves aside and scanning the surroundings.A sound echoed through the woods. My eyes widened. "Did you hear that?"Both of them nodded. "Someone is here. Let's split up — I'll go straight in while you tw

~MIKAEL~The moment she stabbed me with that ice blade, I knew it might be the end. Her first strike had already caused so much damage. Blood spilling from my lips, I heard her cry; I tried to fight the darkness closing in on me.But no matter how hard I tried, it felt hopeless.I sank into the unknown; darkness clouded my eyes, and it felt as though words did not exist in this realm. So this was what death felt like — the hollowness that settled within could terrify even the mightiest of men.I could not die like this.Not with my mate struggling in Sorin's grip.I fought against the darkness. Then a sensation tingled — something soft yet sharp. I thought the feeling had passed, but it came again, sharper this time.I winced, uncertain where it was coming from. I felt my spirit pulling away from my body; there were now three versions of me.One I recognized as my wolf, and Nuriel — my beast that I had tamed — was in shackles, eyes closed as if he had been gone for days."What's happe
