Kira’s POV

No one moved for several seconds after I asked about the witness.

The word blood moon still rang in my ears like something ancient had just been summoned into the room. My father stood in the hallway with his shoulders squared too tightly, as if bracing for an impact that had already happened. My mother looked smaller than I had ever seen her, her fingers twisting into the hem of her cardigan.

I had expected denial.

Deflection.

Maybe even anger.

Instead, I saw fear.

  • Mated To My Brother-In-Law   46 - Nothing but the truth

    Kira’s POVNo one moved for several seconds after I asked about the witness.The word blood moon still rang in my ears like something ancient had just been summoned into the room. My father stood in the hallway with his shoulders squared too tightly, as if bracing for an impact that had already happened. My mother looked smaller than I had ever seen her, her fingers twisting into the hem of her cardigan.I had expected denial.Deflection.Maybe even anger.Instead, I saw fear.And something inside me shifted.“You don’t have to look at me like I’m about to shatter,” I said quietly, stepping fully into the kitchen. The overhead light hummed faintly above us, casting shadows under their eyes that made them look older. “I’m not angry.”My mother’s lips parted slightly. “Kira…”“I’m not,” I repeated, and to my own surprise, it was true.There was too much already unraveling in my life to feel betrayed by this too. The mate bond. The curse. Kayla’s hurt. Nick’s silence. Caroline’s face sti

  • Mated To My Brother-In-Law   45 - Behind the stairs

    KIRAThe shower had long stopped running, yet steam still clung stubbornly to the bathroom walls as though it refused to leave me alone with my thoughts. Droplets slid lazily down the tiles, tracing uneven paths that reminded me too much of the mess my life had become. I pressed my palm against the mirror, dragging it downward until a clear streak cut through the fog. My reflection stared back at me in fragments before the rest of the condensation slowly gave way.My eyes looked different.Not physically. They were still the same shade, still framed by lashes I used to envy on Nick’s face earlier in the week like a complete idiot. But something behind them had shifted. There was a tension there now. A constant awareness. As if my soul had been shaken awake and could not go back to sleep.I wiped the mirror fully with a towel and leaned closer, bracing both hands against the sink. Water from my damp hair dripped onto the porcelain, forming small puddles near my fingers.Two mates.One

    As everyone waited for Nick's response to the question, Esme came to the rescue. “I think it is wise we all depart back to our homes before emotions run too high and things we might regret are said.”The twin's father agreed and stood up first before his wife and Kayla followed. They made their way to the door while Kira was still rooted in the same spot. The council room did not empty immediately after Elder Esme dismissed them. It unraveled slowly, like a tightly wound thread being tugged apart strand by strand. The air felt heavier than before, thick with words unsaid and accusations swallowed too late.Nick remained seated long after Esme concluded that they would reconvene. His elbows rested on his knees, fingers laced together so tightly the knuckles blanched. The faint scent of cedarwood polish from the long oak table did little to ground him. Neither did the low hum of the chandelier overhead nor the muted shuffling of feet as people rose from their seats.He did not look at

    “If there was a mistake with the twins' birth, it's only right that we're all informed about it,” Matilda said, her gaze resting on elder Esme. The twins mom's head snapped to Matilda with a look of disgust. “Our daughters are not mistakes,” she said sharply, her hand spread out to where Kayla was seated as if to shield her from something unseen.The overprotective side of her was out, and she didn't mind taking on the Alpha's mother too. “I did not say they were a mistake,” Matilda defended calmly. “I'm only following up with what elder Esme implied….. or is that wrong of me to do?” “Yes it is,” their dad responded. “Whatever Esme said is not justification to trigger my wife.” A bewildered look covered Matilda's face, confused how her simple question could come across as a trigger. If Matilda were to trigger anyone, she had her eyes on the twins who she believed weren't good enough for her son. “I never called your daughters mistakes. Please don't take my words out of context,”

  • Mated To My Brother-In-Law   42 - Mistakes

    Nick moved instantly, stepping forward as Esme’s body went rigid, still holding Kira’s hand as if holding onto something unseen.And for the first time since this nightmare of twins being mated to one alpha began, true fear of the unknown settled in the room.The air in the council room became dry so abruptly it was felt by everyone in the room, adjusting out of shock and some in denial. “You should have never been born,” she repeated again. Elder Esme’s voice did not rise when she said it. It did not tremble or crack. With every inch of sincerity, her words floated through the room like something irreversible had shifted.Her eyes were still glazed in the eerie white that was common every time she did a palm reading and entered into a trance. Her hand still held into Kira's palm as though she were holding onto a thread only she could see. A thread that could very well determine the fate of not only the twins, nor the people in the room, but for the supernatural world. Nick was the

    The words landed like stones dropping into a pond, thrown from kilometers away. Hearing it said out loud, Kira desperately wished for the ground to open and swallow her whole, erasing her existence from the earth. The situation was bad. Very bad. And having all these people in the room made it very clear that she was in a hot spot. Not just for hiding that she knew the alpha was her mate, but for what might come later. That, she was not prepared for. She could not even bear to look her parents in the eye. In their eyes, she was sure she looked like a disgrace. Time and time again, she only disappointed them, and there was no way out of this with her mind and heart intact. Her mother, now shaking visibly in her seat, was shocked to hear it said plainly. Oh, she could nearly pass out, but in such a cold room, even the lightheadedness of the news could not take her out. She inhaled sharply, her fingers tightening more against the poor edge of her chair, which guaranteed she would have
