Maya’s POV:

I knew Blake had left before anyone told me.

The academy feels different when certain people are gone. Quieter in strange places. Louder in others. Blake Silver's leaving created a space that people filled quickly with guesses and lies.

I stood near the balcony outside the dorm wing, watching students move below. Friday night. Everyone was pretending the week was normal again.

It was not.

Alex had barely spoken all day.

He skipped training. Skipped meals. Even skipped his usual patr

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   237. Her Paled Face

    Lyra’s POV:I woke up slowly, the kind of waking that feels like floating up from a warm dream. Maya’s arms were still around me, her body curled against mine under the thin blanket. We were both completely naked, skin to skin, the blanket pulled up just enough to cover us from the cool morning air coming through the slightly open window. Her leg was draped over my thigh, her face tucked into the crook of my neck, and her steady breathing brushed softly against my skin.This was the best morning of my life.The bruise on my chest still sat there, faded now to a dull purple-yellow, but the sharp pain from yesterday had almost disappeared. Only when I tried to move my right arm too quickly did a tiny sting remind me it was still healing. Everything else felt perfect. Warm. Safe. Hers.I stayed still for a long minute, just breathing her in. Her hair smelled like the Academy shampoo mixed with something sweet that was purely Maya. I turned my head carefully and pressed a light kiss to he

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   236. A Promise From Someone Special

    Alex's POV:The word came out before I decided to say it.Not calculated. Not considered. Just there, arriving from somewhere that bypassed the part of me that managed what I said and how I said it and why."Aunt."Selene's eyes moved to the camera.I had not called her that since the first time Blake had introduced us, years ago, with the easy casualness of someone who considered the title obvious. She had smiled at it then. The warm kind. The kind that meant it had landed somewhere real.I had not used it since because using it required acknowledging something about what she was to our extended world that I had been in the process of making complicated."Aunt," I said again. More steady this time. "What happened. Who was that. Tell me." A pause. "I am here."I was surprised by my own voice.Not the words exactly. The quality of them. The thing underneath the words that I had not put there deliberately but that was there anyway, present and real and sounding, if I was being honest ab

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   235. A Call

    Alex's POV:I had not known that.I had known nothing about my mother's academy years beyond the bare outline. She had left when I was young and the leaving had been managed and explained in the specific careful way that absences in powerful families were managed and explained and I had accepted the explanation because I had been given no reason not to."Things were good," my father said, picking up from where she had paused. "For most of that year. The four of us. Different packs but inside the friendship it did not feel like that." He looked at the screen directly. "And then mid semester there was a new enrollment.""An alpha heir," Selene said. "That was how he presented. From a pack none of us recognized by name but the documentation was in order and the Academy accepted him." She stopped. "He was not what he said he was."I looked at them both."He was a rogue alpha heir," my father said. "Disguised. The documentation was forged and nobody found that out until much later. By then

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   234. The Story Before Ours

    Alex's POV:My phone was in my hand for three minutes before I dialed.I sat on the edge of my bed with the screen lit and my father's contact open and I thought about Blake's seven words and Maya's yes in the atrium and the theory test and Rolf's voice in the arena and the message my father had sent about Silver Luna and not letting Blake know and I thought about all of it and then I dialed anyway because not dialing was not going to make any of it smaller.It connected on the second ring.My father's face appeared on screen. He looked the way he looked when he had been somewhere comfortable for a few hours, slightly less formal than usual, the top button of his shirt open, his expression carrying that particular quality it had been carrying for several months now which was something settled and warm underneath everything else.I did not like how much I noticed that."Alex," he said."Father."A pause.Then he shifted slightly and turned the phone and suddenly there were two faces on

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   233. I Can’t Anymore (18+)

    Selene's POV:As he said, he wasn’t done. Not even close. He pulled out gently, flipped me onto my stomach, and pulled my hips up so I was on all fours, doggy style, the position that always made my wolf howl inside. “Look at you,” he said, voice thick as he ran his hands over my ass, squeezing. “So ready for me again.” He slid back in from behind in one smooth thrust, deeper this way, and started pounding. The sound of skin slapping skin filled the treehouse along with my loud moans and his low grunts. “Take it, Luna. Take every inch of your alpha.” His hand reached around to rub my clit in tight circles and I came hard on the third round, screaming his name into the pillow. He followed right after, filling me again with hot pulses that made me shudder.We shifted positions for the fourth me on top now, riding him slow and deep while he sat up against the headboard, hands on my breasts, mouth sucking at my nipples again. “Ride me just like that,” he groaned, eyes half-lidded with ple

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   232. After The Second Round (18+)

    Selene's POV:“Gregory… oh gods, yes…” The words came out breathy, needy, and he smiled against my skin like he’d been waiting for exactly that sound. He lowered his head and took one nipple into his mouth, sucking slow and deep, tongue flicking over it in lazy circles while his hand worked the other one, pinching just hard enough to send sparks straight down between my legs. My fingers tangled in his hair, holding him there as heat flooded through me. He switched sides, giving the other breast the same worship, teeth grazing lightly, then soothing with his tongue until I was squirming under him, thighs pressing together for any kind of friction.“Feel that?” he whispered, lifting his head just enough to look at me with those glowing eyes. “That’s me reminding you who you belong to. Who we belong to. Together.” He kissed down my stomach next, slow burn all the way, nipping at my ribs, licking the dip of my navel like he had all the time in the world. His hands hooked into the waistban

    Blake’s POV:"Hello, hello, can you hear me?" Mom’s voice came from the phone again. She sounded worried, like always."Yeah, can’t you?" I asked fast, hoping she had not heard anything dangerous."No. You guys were blurry."I let out a breath I did not realise I was holding. Alex also relaxed a bit
