Forbidden Romance With My Ruthless, Alpha Stepbrother Chapter 20
Vincent’s POV I knew the moment the game changed.Power has a rhythm. When you rule long enough, you don’t just see it, you feel it in your bones. It’s in the way conversations die when you walk into a room. In the way your most loyal people start choosing their words carefully. In the way reports arrive late, incomplete, filtered.It started as a whisper.Then it became a pattern.And now there was a storm building around me.I stood in my office, the city spread beneath me like a living thing. Lights pulsed in the distance and cars moved like veins carrying blood through the night. Everything looked normal.But nothing was.My reflection in the glass looked like a stranger. The sharp suits were still there. The cold expression and the control.But my eyes…My eyes were tired.A knock came.“Enter.”Marcus stepped in. He didn’t move the way he usually did. Normally he walked in with confidence, like a wolf who knew his alpha had his back.Now he moved carefully.“Alpha,” he said, “w

Erika’s povFear changes a person.It does not always scream. Sometimes it whispers and it sits quietly in your chest and reminds you that you are becoming invisible.That was what was happening to me.Each day, I felt smaller in the Looke world.It showed in small ways at first, servants no longer waited for my instructions. They bowed, yes, but their eyes slid past me, already searching for Vincent. Guards responded slower when I spoke. They asked for confirmation and they needed approval. Even the walls felt colder, like they no longer recognized my authority.I had given seven years of my life to this house.Seven years of careful steps and now I was being slowly erased.I could not allow that.I had seen what happened to women who lost their value in powerful families. I had grown up watching it happen. They were praised while useful and adored while convenient but then, when their purpose faded, they were sent away, silenced and forgotten.That would not be my fate. That night,

Erica’s PovI have always known when something was slipping out of my hands.Power shifts have a sound, a smell and a silence that grows too loud when no one wants to be the first to speak.And lately, Vincent had been quiet in a way that frightened me.I woke up that morning alone again.The space beside me was cold, untouched and the sheets were smooth, like no one had been there all night. Vincent had not slept in our room for days now. At first, I told myself it was stress. That it was business, council pressure and territory disputes. I had made excuses for him for seven years, excuses were something I was very good at.But this felt different.This felt like abandonment done slowly.I sat up in bed and stared at the empty space, my chest tight. The bond between mates was supposed to be strong and unbreakable. But ours had always felt… thin. Like a thread stretched too tight. Like something held together by duty instead of love.I pressed a hand to my chest, searching for him thr

(Vincent and Luke's Story)Long before power became a weapon and money became a measure of worth, Vincent Looke had a brother.Not by blood but by choice.Vincent was born into a world of rules. From the moment he could walk, expectations followed him like shadows. He was the only son of the Looke family, one of the oldest and strongest werewolf bloodlines in the region. The Looke name carried weight. It demanded obedience, discipline, and control.His father believed emotions were weaknesses, mistakes were unacceptable and silence was strength.Vincent learned early how to stand straight, how to keep his face calm, how to listen more than he spoke. Praise was rare and punishment was precise. Love, if it existed, was hidden behind duty.He grew up inside large halls and locked doors where tutors replaced friends, guards replaced freedom, training replaced play and very lesson pushed one message into his bones:You will lead and you will not fail.Vincent did not remember a time when h

Vincent’s povThe tension with Luke did not start today.It had lived between us for years, hiding behind polite distance and unfinished conversations. It slept under fake smiles, business emails, and long silences. We both pretended it was gone, but neither of us believed that lie.Luke had not stepped foot in the Looke mansion for a long time.Not since the night everything broke.So when I heard his car pass through the gates, when his scent touched the walls of my home again, I knew this was not a casual visit.Luke never came without reason.And this time, the reason had a name. He had come just as others because of Matthew’s accident.I was at the training grounds when it happened.The younger wolves were sparring under the late afternoon sun. Their movements were sharp but sloppy, full of energy and hunger. I stood with my arms crossed, correcting them when needed, watching for weakness. Training always calmed me. It reminded me of order and control.Then the air changed.I sm

Vincent’s povMatthew’s recovery happened too fast.That was the thought that stayed with me from the moment the sun began to rise. It didn’t fade nor did it soften. It sat heavy in my chest, steady and loud, like a truth demanding to be seen.I stood outside his room before dawn, my arms crossed tightly over my chest. The door was slightly open. I hadn’t planned to watch. I told myself I was just passing by but my feet had stopped on their own.Inside, Matthew was awake. He wasn’t just awake, Mathew was sitting up.He was laughing softly, swinging his legs as Lily stood in front of him with her arms folded, pretending to be angry.“I told you to stay still,” she scolded gently. “You’re not allowed to jump around yet.”“But Mama,” he protested, grinning, “I feel good.”Too good.A child had fallen down an entire flight of stairs. I had seen the blood and I had seen him unconscious in Lily’s arms. I had felt the fear claw into my chest like a wild thing.And now he looked like nothing
