My Swimmer Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim Chapter 99
Six months after the Olympics, Riley found out she was pregnant.She stared at the test in the bathroom of their apartment, hands shaking so badly she nearly dropped it. Two lines. Undeniably positive.Pregnant.She was twenty-nine years old, had been mated to Samuel for just over a year, and was pregnant.Riley sat on the bathroom floor, trying to process this. They'd talked about kids eventually. Someday in the distant future when Samuel's swimming career had settled, when Pack Truth was more established, when they'd been together longer.Not now. Not yet.But wolf pregnancies didn't always wait for convenient timing. The mate bond, fully consummated and strong, made conception almost inevitable. Riley had been on birth control, but clearly it hadn't been enough against goddess-chosen biology."Riley?" Samuel's voice came from the bedroom. "You okay in there?"She opened the door, holding out the test wordlessly.Samuel looked at it. His eyes went wide. "Is that... are you...""Preg

The Olympics came in August, a year after everything had changed.Riley stood in the athlete village in Paris, feeling completely out of place among the world's greatest competitors. She wasn't an athlete. She was a writer, a journalist, a mate who'd somehow gotten credentials to be here supporting Samuel."You look lost," a voice said behind her.Riley turned to find a woman in her fifties, wearing a Team USA jacket. "I am a little. First time at the Olympics.""Family member?""Mate. My partner's competing in swimming."The woman's face lit up. "You must be Riley. Riley Chen. I read your book."Riley was still getting used to this. Being recognized. Being known. "Thank you for reading it.""It's beautiful. Raw. My daughter is in a relationship with someone ten years older, and she was terrified to tell me. After reading your book, she found the courage." The woman held out her hand. "I'm Margaret. My son's competing in track."They talked for a few minutes before Margaret had to lea

The first draft of the book took four months to write. Four months of late nights and early mornings, of Riley staring at her laptop until her eyes burned, of Samuel reading chapters and offering feedback between training sessions. Four months of reliving every painful, beautiful moment of their story. Riley worked from Samuel's apartment most days. He'd insisted she move in officially two months into the writing process, claiming it was ridiculous for her to pay rent on a place she never stayed at anymore. "Besides," he'd said, pulling her close, "I like waking up with you here." So Riley had given up her apartment, moved her things into Samuel's tiny studio, and learned what it meant to build a life with someone. It wasn't always easy. Samuel's training schedule was brutal, six hours a day in the pool plus strength training and physical therapy. Riley's writing consumed her, whole days disappearing into the manuscript. They had to learn to exist in the same small space without

Two weeks after the article ran, Riley got a call that changed everything.She was in her apartment, working on a business proposal for the online publication Max had suggested, when her phone rang. Unknown number.She almost didn't answer. But something made her pick up."Riley Chen?""Speaking.""My name is Victoria Ashford. I'm a literary agent with Ashford and Associates. I read your article in National Pack Weekly."Riley sat up straighter. "Oh?""I want to represent you. I think your story, yours and Samuel's, would make an incredible book. Memoir, maybe, or creative nonfiction. The kind of thing that could really resonate with people.""A book?""I've already had three publishers reach out asking if you have representation. There's real interest here, Riley. Real money, potentially."Riley's head spun. "I don't know. I've never written a book before.""But you can write. That article proved it. And you have a story people want to hear." Victoria's voice was persuasive, professi
My Swimmer Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim chapter 95: When the article comes out
The article hit stands on Monday morning at six AM.By six-thirty, it was trending on every social media platform. By seven, news outlets were picking it up, dissecting it, offering their own commentary. By eight, Riley's phone had exploded with messages again.But this time, the tone was different."This is beautiful. Real love.""Finally, someone brave enough to tell their truth.""Age gaps in mate bonds are totally normal. People need to educate themselves.""I'm crying. This is the kind of love story we need more of."There were still haters, of course. Still people calling Riley a predator, calling Samuel naive, calling the whole thing inappropriate. But they were drowned out by support. By people sharing their own stories of mate bonds that defied convention. By pack members across the country vouching for the sanctity of goddess-chosen connections.Riley sat at Samuel's kitchen table, scrolling through responses with tears streaming down her face."Hey," Samuel said softly, sit

The interview was scheduled for Monday morning. Riley had reached out to an old colleague, Marcus Chen, no relation, who worked for National Pack Weekly. He'd jumped at the chance to do an exclusive sit-down with her and Samuel about their relationship. "This is huge," Marcus had said over the phone. "Mate bonds, age gaps, institutional pressure. It's got everything. Human interest, legal drama, romance. We'll run it as our cover story." So now Riley and Samuel sat in Samuel's small apartment, waiting for Marcus and his photographer to arrive. Riley had changed outfits three times. Samuel had been calm, steady, but she could see the tension in his shoulders. "You nervous?" she asked. "Terrified," Samuel admitted. "I've done plenty of interviews about swimming. But this? Talking about us? About private things?" "We don't have to do this. We can cancel." "No. You were right. We control the narrative or someone else does." Samuel reached for her hand. "I just hope I don't say som
