Uncle Hayden calls once after I leave to ask why I left abruptly. Katherine doesn’t reach out. If Zoren tried again, I don’t know. Because I changed my number and shared it only with Emilia and Uncle Hayden, knowing he won’t call unless it was an emergency or related to the donation.
There is no longer anyone in that mansion who would ask me to stay for my own sake. Aunt Pat was the

Forbidden: My Alpha Brother’s Obsession 87: Water. Hungry.
ZORENOur new house sits on a hill above a lake. It’s been one full month since we left the state we called home. Two months since I had that conversation with Adler. I’m still learning how to talk with my hands. How to be a husband to Cassie.Every day that passes reminds me of the easy days when I stayed by her side while she was unconscious. It’s 3 a.m., and I’m in the kitchen. My tablet is propped against the jug and my earbuds are plugged in to avoid waking her up.A woman on the screen signs water. I copy her and get it wrong. Fingers spread, not together. I have been at it for two hours. My hands ache, and the coffee has gone cold.Water. Hungry. Hurt. Yes. No. Please. Two hours, and I only know six signs, which my fingers will forget by daylight.My eyes droop, and I shake off the
Forbidden: My Alpha Brother’s Obsession 86: Husband
ZORENAs if conjured by my thoughts, Adler steps into the room with practiced calmness. I scan his face to know if Cassie being awake now is a good sign, but he gives nothing away.Without a word to me, he produces a penlight from his pocket and holds it to Cassie’s eyes. She winces, and I almost yell at him to stop. Her fingertips pinch one at a time. He says her name, loudly, then softly, then in an old wolf howl, and her head tilts toward each sound and away.“She’s waking,” he says at last. The crack in his voice makes it nearly impossible to rejoice at the good news. “That in itself is…”“Is what?” I ask, impatient.He takes off his glasses. “She isn’t tracking faces. She isn’t answering to her name. And I don’t think she’ll speak for a while.” He pinches the brid
Forbidden: My Alpha Brother’s Obsession 85: Your choice
ZORENThe drive to Liora’s house takes fifteen minutes. Fenrir and I tense as I enter. The place is unusually quiet, and my suitcase still sits in the foyer as if nothing has changed.Liora is in the living room, standing near the window in one of the silk dresses she favors. She turns when she hears me. Relief flashes across her face, and a smile spreads across her red lips.“Your dad was right. You’re finally back to your senses.”I don’t bother to correct her assumption. I cross the room and hold out the second folder and a pen. “Sign.”“What’s this about?” She glances at the page, and her face loses color. “Zoren, we can talk about this. The alliance—”“Sign, or we can take it public,” I say, my voice f
Forbidden: My Alpha Brother’s Obsession 84: Sign
ZORENThe surgery lasts eleven hours. I know because I count every hour. I don’t sleep. I don’t eat. I don’t drink water. And I don’t answer the phone that buzzes at intervals with Dad’s name, Liora’s, then an unknown number. I pace the corridor, my shadow stretching and shrinking under the lamps.Once, around the sixth hour, there’s a deep, sharp tug in my chest. It lurches, flares, and for one terrible moment, falls dark. I drop to my knees on the tiles. I don’t know how long I stay that way. When I lift my head, the light in my chest has steadied. It’s thin, flickering, but still present.Somewhere in the center of it, where my wolf used to feel Cassie’s, a silence has settled that is not like the silence of death. This time, it’s the silence of a room where someone has closed a door very softly, so as n
Forbidden: My Alpha Brother’s Obsession 86: Do it
ZOREN“There has to be another way.”I hear my own voice from far off. Adler stands across the bed with his glasses now pushed up into his hair and his hands open at his sides. He looks like a man who has already lost this argument with himself a dozen times.“Tell me there’s another way,” I demand.“Sit, Zoren,” Adler whispers. My feet refuse to move, and he exhales. “Please. Let me explain, and then you decide.”My knees weaken, but I don’t sit. I stay where I am, one hand on the bed rail and the other on Cassie’s ankle. If she can feel this, let her know I’m here. I’ll never leave again.Adler takes a breath. “Do you understand what her blood really is?” he asks.No. I’ve
Forbidden: My Alpha Brother’s Obsession 85: Do it again
ZORENAdler turns to me with a frown. “To your father?”“All of it. Use every vial and every dose.” I stare at the C on the label, and it blurs. “This is the last favor I do him as his son. It should be enough to keep Katherine alive for a year.”Cassie has bled enough.Adler nods slowly. “I’ll arrange the courier.”I nod and walk back to Cassie’s room. She is exactly as I left her. I pull a chair to the edge of the bed. The metal feet scrape the floor, and the sound is obscene in the silence. I sit, taking her hand in both of mine. She’s as cold as the vials. I hold her palm between mine and try to warm it.“Hey,” I whisper. “Hey, tiger.”She doesn’t move. She doesn’t blink.“You were s
