Mated to My Rival Step Brother 261. Into the Forest Again
Alex's POV:The task briefing happened at the forest edge at ten sharp.Coach Vega stood at the boundary marker with a tablet and the expression he wore when he had designed something he found adequately challenging and was waiting to see if the people in front of him were going to prove him right.The four teams stood in loose formations behind their respective Alpha heirs. I could feel Leo Silver behind me without looking. His pack energy was familiar in the way that Silver pack energy was always familiar, clean and structured, but carrying underneath it the specific quality of someone who was acutely aware that he was standing behind the Alpha heir of the pack his boyfriend belonged to. Complicated was the correct word for that situation and I had agreed with Rafe's assessment and was managing it accordingly.Rolf stood to my left with his team and Maya was at his right shoulder and she was holding her posture with the specific deliberateness of someone who had decided their body l
Mated to My Rival Step Brother 260. Lottery and Complications
Alex's POV:The dining hall smelled like eggs and coffee and approximately forty people pretending they had slept properly.I had not slept properly.I had slept for exactly ninety three minutes which I knew because I had looked at the clock when I lay down and looked at it again when my body decided ninety three minutes was apparently sufficient and woke me up with the cheerful efficiency of someone who had not received the memo about last night.I walked to the breakfast line.Every step communicated its feelings to me directly and specifically and I received the feedback with the expression of someone who was not going to give anyone the satisfaction of seeing it.The ribs were a three. The forearm was a two. Everything else was a comprehensive record of the previous twelve hours that I was going to have to carry through what was apparently a semifinal task day and I was going to do it without complaint.I collected a plate and moved toward a table.Each step.Every single one.I k
Mated to My Rival Step Brother 259. Dawn Belongs to Us
Blake's POV:I stared at it for exactly two seconds. Then I looked at Maya standing beside her. Then back at Lyra. Lyra's face was completely neutral, watching me.I could not help it. The smile started at the corner of my mouth and I let it go all the way."Interesting night, Lyra?" I said.Lyra raised one eyebrow. She looked unbothered. "We slept.""Sure," I said. "And that thing on your neck is a birthmark."Maya made a small sound that was absolutely a suppressed laugh. Lyra shot her a look and Maya pressed her lips together and looked at the trees with great interest."We are in a hurry," Lyra said flatly. "Can we move.""Absolutely," I said pleasantly. "Just saying. Good to know the night was productive for everyone."Lyra looked at me with that perfectly controlled face she always wore. Then her eyes moved. They dropped down from my face to Alex, and they landed on his jawline. Specifically on the left side of his jawline where I had apparently been less careful than I thought
Mated to My Rival Step Brother 258. A Hickey
Blake's POV:The moon had moved. I could tell by the way the light shifted through the north window, softer now, less sharp. The howling from earlier had completely stopped. The forest outside was quiet in that particular way it only gets just before dawn, when even the night creatures have gone still and the world holds its breath waiting for the sun.I was not sleeping.I had not slept at all.Alex was on my chest, breathing slow and even. His hair was a mess and his cheek was pressed flat against my skin. Every now and then he would shift slightly in his sleep, his hand curling tighter against my side like even in sleep he did not want to let go. I stared up at the wooden ceiling of the treehouse and traced the grain lines with my eyes and thought about nothing and everything at the same time.He said he loves me.That was the only thing my brain kept returning to, like a dog going back to the same warm patch of floor. Not the rest of it, not the competition waiting for us in a few
Mated to My Rival Step Brother Chapter 257. Turnabout (18+)
Blake’s POV:I held Alex close to my chest for a while. His body was limp and covered in sweat. I could feel how drained he was. Carefully, I reached for the small cabinet again and pulled out a healing potion the omegas always kept in these treehouses. It was meant for injuries after fights or long runs, but it worked for this kind of exhaustion too."Here, baby," I said softly. I helped him sit up a little and brought the small bottle to his lips. "Drink this. It will help your body recover faster."Alex drank it without arguing. The liquid tasted slightly sweet and herbal. He made a small face but swallowed it all. I wiped the corner of his mouth with my thumb and kissed him gently."Good boy," I whispered.We lay there quietly for almost an hour. The full moon was still shining through the north window. The distant howling had calmed down, but the night still felt heavy with energy. I stroked his back slowly, feeling his breathing become steadier.After some time, Alex shifted in
Mated to My Rival Step Brother 256. Trembling for You (18+)
Lyra's POV:I lay there holding Maya close, her face tucked into my neck. Her breathing had finally become slow and even. The treehouse was quiet except for the soft sound of her breathing and the occasional creak of wood outside. My body still felt warm from taking care of her. Watching her come apart so sweetly under my mouth had filled my chest with something deep and soft.For almost half an hour I stayed awake, just looking at her. My sleeping beauty. Even with the bruises painting her left side in fading colors, she looked peaceful. Her lashes rested against her cheeks, and her lips were slightly parted. Every now and then she would make a tiny sound in her sleep and press closer to me. I brushed my fingers through her hair so gently, afraid to wake her.She was everything. My strong, quiet Maya who carried pain without complaint. My soft girl who trusted me completely. I could have watched her forever.Then a loud howl cut through the night.It was too close. Too loud. The soun
Mated to My Rival Step Brother 164. Shh, Don't Disturb Me [18+]
Blake's POV:I shoved him.Stupid. I knew it was stupid the second my palms connected with Alex's chest, the second I felt the solid wall of him barely budge an inch. But the anger had been sitting too hot behind my ribs for too long, and my body moved before my brain caught up.The silence that fol

Blake's POV:His knuckles rested against the leather, unhurried and knowing. Not moving. Just resting there like he wanted me to feel it. To understand exactly where this was going.My breath hitched so hard it must have been audible.And through the haze of the kiss, I felt him smile against my mou

Maya’s POV:The pass feels heavier than it should.It is just a card. Silver metal. A wolf engraved at the center with a faint thunder mark behind it. Selene had placed it in my palm earlier with a calm smile, as if she was handing me a library card and not permission to cross into one of the stron

Blake’s POV:The Academy canteen is loud today. Trays slide. Chairs scrape. Voices rise and fall like waves. I sit with my food untouched for a moment, staring at the steam curling up from the rice and grilled meat. My appetite is there, but my mind keeps drifting. It keeps going back to one place.
