CHAPTER 13: The Unhinged Psycho

last update Huling Na-update: 2025-07-03 11:17:48

I woke to the shrill blare of my alarm, a sound so piercing it could’ve been ripped straight from the climax of a horror movie. Fitting, really, considering my life had taken a hard left into nightmare territory since moving in with Greg and his deranged son—a bona fide psycho and, to top it off, a goddamn stalker.

Groaning, I smacked the snooze button and rolled over, burying my face into my pillow. Five more minutes, I promised myself, which was clearly a lie because five minutes always turned into twenty. But nope, not today. I couldn’t risk being late again, not with Mom already giving me the talk about “responsibility” and how I needed to “set a good example" to others like I actually give a fuck.

Dragging myself out of bed, I shuffled toward the bathroom. The cold tiles sent a shiver up my spine, jolting me awake. I turned on the shower, waited for the water to heat up, and stepped under the spray, letting the warmth wash away the grogginess. Shampoo, conditioner, body was

The other thing is, if she's his mate, even if she's a human, she should feel the same attraction to him even if she can't explain it.

  • Claimed By My Stepbrother    CHAPTER 162: Count To Ten

    I stared at him. My lips parted, but no sound came out. That couldn’t be right. What was he even saying? I let out a short, hollow laugh, the sound brittle in the quiet room. “How the hell would I have a close relationship with a man I’ve never even met?” Ethan frowned. “I don’t know. That’s just what she told me.” “Why would she say that?” I asked, almost to myself, because the more I thought about it, the less sense it made. A sharp chill ran through my body, curling low in my spine like something cold had slithered into me. I sat back against the couch and stared into nothing, trying to dig through my memories—anything that might make sense of what he just said. Had there been something? A moment? A face I forgot? I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to search the depths of my childhood. But it was just a blur. My mind was like a photo album with missing pages. Everything before a certain age was foggy. Distant. I couldn’t tell if that was normal or not. I dug harder. Tryi

  • Claimed By My Stepbrother    CHAPTER 161: That Can’t Be Right

    I didn’t know what to think. Or feel. I think I was in a daze. One of those thick, woolly kinds that wrap around your brain and numb everything else. Everything was muffled, the voices, the footsteps, the whispers, even my own thoughts. It all felt distant, like I was watching the world through a fogged-up window. One minute, I was standing in the middle of a crowd being stared at like I’d grown a second head. The next, I was inside a building I didn’t even remember walking into. It was only when Ethan placed a glass in my hand that I blinked, my brain slowly crawling back to the present. “Here… have this,” he said gently. “Oh. Thanks.” My voice sounded weird, like it came from someone else entirely. I took the glass automatically and stared at the clear liquid for a second longer than necessary before sipping. The water was cold. Refreshingly so. It shocked my senses just enough to make the rest of the room snap into focus. That was the moment I really looked around. We wer

  • Claimed By My Stepbrother    CHAPTER 160: You’re Mine

    I stepped back slightly, the air suddenly feeling tight, suffocating. I could still feel the redhead girl’s eyes burning into me from the side, her expression unreadable now that she’d retreated behind the crowd. But it was the tension between Ethan and his father that made my skin crawl. No warmth. No reunion. No "you're finally home" welcome. Just a cold war in the middle of a crowd that somehow still felt too quiet. Ethan stayed quiet. The crowd stayed bowed. And I? I stood there like a sore thumb, a human in a place I had no business being, beside a man who radiated violence and ownership and love like they were the same damn thing. Then his father looked at me. A long, cold, unblinking stare. Like I was a stain. A disgusting stain whose very existence offended his bloodline. My chest tightened. I tried to hold his gaze, but it made my throat close. My feet shuffled backward half a step before I caught myself. Don’t you dare show fear, Camila! But I didn

  • Claimed By My Stepbrother    CHAPTER 159: Wait… Son?

    We stepped out of the car and within seconds, it was like the whole goddamn forest came alive. People had gathered. Lots of them. Like they’d known we were coming, like some invisible alarm had gone off. Children peered from behind legs, grown men stood like statues, and women stood wide-eyed, whispering. It was... strange. Like we’d just walked into the climax of a fantasy novel. I half expected someone to raise a sword or start chanting in Latin. Then— “Zarek?” a soft voice said, cracking in disbelief. I turned. A girl with the brightest red hair I had ever seen was moving toward us—toward him. Her long legs carried her fast, her boots crunching on leaves and gravel, her green eyes brimming with tears. “Zarek?” she called again, voice louder. I blinked. Zarek? Ethan smiled. Or... Zarek smiled? What? My heart did something weird in my chest. It flipped—or maybe flopped—as she launched herself at him, arms wrapping tight around his torso like she was afraid he’d

  • Claimed By My Stepbrother    CHAPTER 158: Secret World

    It took us days. Not hours. Not just one or two days. Days. And before I knew it, we were in a damn forest. Not the pretty kind you see in calendars or documentaries with softly rustling trees and birds chirping like some Disney soundtrack. No, this was the kind of forest that looked like it had teeth. Twisted trees stretched tall and wide, casting shadows that curled like claws across the damp earth. The deeper we drove into it, the denser everything became. Like the sun was too scared to shine all the way through. And I was suddenly… quiet. Which was saying something, because I’d been talking non-stop for most of the trip. Asking a million questions about the pack, about the rules, about how many people were there, about what they’d think of me, if they'd be suspicious of a human—or whatever the hell I was now. But now? Now I was just clutching my water bottle with both hands, biting the inside of my cheek and trying not to let the forest swallow my nerves whole. B

  • Claimed By My Stepbrother    CHAPTER 157: Somewhere Quiet

    By the time we found a motel, the sun had already started bleeding into the horizon. Everything looked golden and tired, like the sky itself was winding down for the day. I couldn’t tell if the dull ache behind my eyes was from lack of sleep, the weight of everything that had happened, or just the sheer exhaustion of pretending I wasn’t scared out of my mind. Ethan parked the car in front of a squat, dusty building with a neon sign that blinked “VACANCY” like it was barely holding on to hope. The parking lot was cracked in places, weeds pushing up between the cement, and the whole place smelled faintly of hot asphalt and damp pine. “Not exactly a five-star hotel,” I muttered, squinting out the window. Ethan reached over and brushed a strand of hair behind my ear. “We just need a place to rest. Somewhere quiet.” Quiet. That sounded nice. I hadn’t realized how badly I wanted silence until he said it. Inside the motel, everything looked like it hadn’t been touched since the e
