His deep voice echoed off the cold brick walls, and the terrifying sound made my racing heart skip a painful beat inside my chest.

The sheer shock loosened my tight grip on my cell phone, so the device slipped through my sweating fingers and tumbled onto the concrete floor.

"Jaslyn, are you still there?" Connor yelled through the tiny speaker, while his frantic voice barely pierced the suffocating silence of the dark vault.

"C-Connor, he is here," I whispered toward the glowing screen, but the

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   132 - GETAWAY CAR

    I burst through the swinging doors and stumble directly into the bright fluorescent lights of the catering kitchen.A dozen chefs and servers freeze in their tracks, dropping their metal tongs and silver trays as I crash into their quiet workspace.The silver tether of magic pulses brightly from the center of my chest, casting a terrifying glow over the stainless steel counters and the rows of prepared appetizers.The invisible line pulls taut behind me, sending a fresh wave of blinding pain straight down my spine and making my vision blur.I bite my lip hard enough to taste copper and force my shaking legs to keep moving because slowing down means death."Out of my way!" I yell, shoving past a tall cart stacked high with dirty plates.The ceramic dishes rattle loudly, but the staff just scrambles out of my path, staring at the glowing light radiating from my ruined dress.The back exit is just twenty feet away at the end of a narrow, white-tiled corridor.I hear the muffled screams o

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   131 - THE CHASE

    I kneel on the cold marble floor with thick, dark blood dripping from my chin.My chest heaves as I try to pull air into my burning lungs.The metallic tang of my own blood coats my teeth, mixing with the sharp, overwhelming scent of mass panic flooding the grand ballroom.Through the haze of my own agony, I watch Jaslyn turn her back on me.She lifts the soaked fabric of her ruined green dress and breaks into a desperate sprint toward the kitchen doors.She is running away from me, terrified of the man who swore to protect her.The realization hurts far worse than the magical fire currently eating through my ribcage.I reach a trembling hand out toward her retreating form.My inner wolf thrashes against the cage of my ribs, howling in pure devastation as he watches our mate flee.Every single step she takes puts more distance between us.The brilliant silver tether of light connecting our chests pulls tight.A fresh wave of excruciating phantom pain explodes behind my sternum, forcin

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   130 - GODDESS'S REFUSAL

    I gasp for a breath that refuses to come.The hard stone floor presses painfully against my cheek.My hands claw frantically at the soaked fabric of my dress right over my heart.The agonizing heat inside my chest is supposed to fade.I read about rejections in the old texts Vanessa forced me to study.The pain is supposed to snap and leave behind a cold, hollow emptiness so both wolves can move on.But the fire does not stop.It deepens into a vicious, burning pull.It feels like a thick, barbed cable is hooked directly into my ribs, trying to drag my body forward.I force my eyes open, blinking away the hot tears blurring my vision.A blinding silver light is bursting straight out of my chest.The glow pierces the ruined silk of my green gown and illuminates the dark hallway with a brilliant, pulsing rhythm.It hums with an ancient energy that makes the hair on my arms stand up.I follow the beam of light across the floor.The glowing tether connects directly to Ryder.He is on his

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   129 - SEVERING

    The final words of the rejection leave my mouth and hang heavily in the dead air of the grand ballroom.​I brace myself for the inevitable snap of the mate bond.​I have watched other wolves reject their mates over the years, and I know exactly how the ancient magic operates.​The tether between our souls is supposed to dissolve into nothing, leaving both parties free to walk away without looking back.​I expect to feel a sudden, freezing emptiness hollow out my chest.​I am prepared to feel isolated and untouchable, stepping fully into the role of the perfect executioner the council demands.​I dig my polished shoes into the floorboards and stand tall, waiting for the cold relief of the severing to wash over me.​Evander Knox nods slowly from the edge of the dance floor, assuming the brutal show is finished and he has won his political war.​I keep my face perfectly blank, preparing to turn my back on Jaslyn and walk away so she can safely leave the territory.​Then she screams.​The

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   128 - REJECTED FINALLY

    The silent words hang in the small space between us, carrying a weight that almost crushes my lungs.I stare into his sorrowful hazel eyes and finally understand the terrifying truth of our situation.He is not a king who can do whatever he wants, but a prisoner bound by the ancient laws of his people.If he fights them tonight to protect me, the council will just have me killed before the sun comes up to ensure their bloodlines remain pure.He is sacrificing our bond so I can walk out the front doors and live a quiet human life.My throat tightens until it hurts to swallow, and I desperately want to tell him that I understand his impossible choice.I want to reach out and touch his face one last time, but there are hundreds of hostile eyes tracking our every move.Brooke and Morgan watch us from the edge of the hallway, their faces glowing with vicious anticipation.Sienna stands just inches from Ryder with a sharp, hungry expression, waiting for the bloody spectacle to begin.Ryder

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   127 - PLEA

    The silence in the grand ballroom is so absolute that my own shallow breathing sounds too loud.Sienna’s harsh demand hangs in the freezing air between us, vibrating with malicious intent.Hundreds of wealthy guests are watching me, their predatory eyes glowing in the dim light of the crystal chandeliers.Flashes of amber, gold, and piercing blue pierce the shadows of the crowded room.They look like a pack of starving wolves circling a wounded deer in the dead of winter, just waiting for the Alpha to make the first strike.The cold red wine continues to soak through my ruined silk dress and drip onto my expensive shoes.The wet chill seeps into my skin and makes my teeth chatter, but I refuse to give them the satisfaction of seeing me cry.I wrap my arms tightly around my waist, trying to hide the massive dark stain ruining the emerald fabric.Every single gaze burns into my skin, heavy with judgment and disgust.They are all measuring my worth against their ancient traditions, and t

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   6 - DARK HALLWAY

    I walked out of the massive dining room with Damien's black credit card tucked securely into the front pocket of my jeans. My fingers traced the raised numbers on the plastic through the denim fabric. My mind raced as I thought about the tense dinner conversation.Vanessa had glared at me the whole

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   5 - MATE

    RYDER'S POVEvan stood in the middle of the hallway and waited for an answer. I did not want to have this conversation out in the open where anyone from the staff or my family could hear us. I reached out and grabbed him by the arm so I could pull him down the corridor. He stumbled a bit, but he fo

    JASLYN'S POVVanessa let go of my arm the exact second he spoke. She dropped her hands to her sides and took a quick step away from me.She smoothed the wrinkles on her tight dress and forced a bright, fake smile onto her face."Damien, darling," Vanessa said. Her voice pitched much higher than nor

  • MY POSSESSIVE ALPHA STEPBROTHER IS MY MATE   3 - SERVANT

    JASLYN'S POVThe heavy double doors slammed shut in my face and the loud boom echoed across the empty driveway and faded into the hot summer air.I stood frozen on the top marble step, my heart hammering hard against my ribs. I reached down and touched my waist where Ryder had grabbed me and my ski
