Selene's POV:

I knew the voice before I saw the face.

That was the thing about voices that belonged to specific memories. They did not age the way faces did. They arrived exactly as they had been preserved, sharp and immediate and carrying everything they had carried the first time you heard them, and this one carried twenty years of things I had spent considerable effort not thinking about.

I stepped out of the cave first.

The forest was dim in the evening light and he was standing ten meters

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   277. Touched By You

    Selene's POV:I knew the voice before I saw the face.That was the thing about voices that belonged to specific memories. They did not age the way faces did. They arrived exactly as they had been preserved, sharp and immediate and carrying everything they had carried the first time you heard them, and this one carried twenty years of things I had spent considerable effort not thinking about.I stepped out of the cave first.The forest was dim in the evening light and he was standing ten meters away with the easy posture of someone who had been waiting and had known the waiting would end exactly this way. He looked older than the last time I had seen him and the same age simultaneously in the way that certain people existed outside the normal progression of time because they had never allowed the world to fully touch them.He was not large. That had always been the thing people got wrong about him when they tried to imagine the rogue alpha based on his reputation. Average height. Lean.

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   276. The Stone and the Cave

    Lyra's POV:The border of rogue alpha territory looked like any other stretch of forest at first.Old trees. Dense undergrowth. The particular quality of late afternoon light coming through a canopy that had not been maintained or managed and had grown according to its own logic for however many years this territory had been held outside the formal pack structure.Then you felt it.Not with your eyes. With the part of you that was wolf and had instincts older than any Academy training. A specific quality to the air here that was different from Silver territory and different from Thorne territory and different from any neutral forest I had run through. Something in it that said claimed and said warning and said turn back in a frequency that bypassed conscious thought and went directly to the base of the spine.Selene felt it. I could see it in the slight change in her posture.Gregory's jaw had set.I kept walking.Maya stopped.She turned to face us and her hand went into the pocket o

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   275. I Love You Not Your Identity

    Lyra's POV:Nobody asked Maya anything.That was the agreement that nobody stated out loud but everyone in the room honored. Selene looked at the map. Gregory looked at the tracker. I looked at Maya and Maya looked at the floor and the silence that followed her revelation was not the cold kind. It was the kind that came when a room full of people had received something significant and had decided that the receiving was enough for now.There would be time for the rest.Blake and Alex were in rogue alpha territory with an unknown substance in Alex's system and the afternoon was moving toward evening and that was the only thing with a deadline on it.Everything else could wait.We split to prepare.Selene and Gregory went to coordinate with the pack representatives who had been at the competition and were now redirected to something considerably more serious than a competition. I watched them move through the administrative block corridor side by side, not touching but close enough that

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   274. Rogue Alpha's Niece

    Lyra's POV:The arena was still loud when I left it.Not the good kind of loud. The kind that came after something had gone wrong in a public space and nobody had enough information to know how wrong and everyone was filling the gap with noise. Pack representatives on their phones. Academy staff moving with the specific urgency of people who had been given instructions and were following them while also being frightened. Students in clusters talking over each other.I moved through all of it toward one destination.Blake's mother.I had felt him through the mind link and the mind link had told me everything his words had not said directly. The specific quality of Blake Silver when he was frightened was something I had known since we were children and it was rare enough that encountering it was its own alarm system.I am honestly terrified.Blake did not say that.Blake did not say that to anyone.I walked faster.Someone had given Selene a room in the administrative block during the c

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   273. Find Us Faster

    Blake's POV:The growls were close enough now that I could feel them in my chest before I heard them with my ears.Too close.I looked at Alex against the tree trunk and made the calculation in under two seconds. He was not going to regain consciousness fast enough to move himself and I was not going to leave him and the approaching wolves were not going to stop because I asked them politely.I semi shifted.Not the full change. The halfway version that gave me the strength and the enhanced senses without committing fully to four legs. Harder to maintain. More expensive on the body. Useful for exactly this kind of situation where I needed to carry something and also run.I got Alex over my shoulder.He was completely limp and the dead weight of an unconscious person was different from the cooperative weight of someone who was helping with the process and I adjusted and moved.I ran.The forest received us.What forest this was I genuinely did not know. The tunnel had been long and the

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   272. Needle Mark

    Blake's POV:They did not answer.The senior wolf looked at the others with the specific look of someone giving a silent instruction and the four of them moved simultaneously and the wolfsbane came out fast, two dart launchers from the wolves on the right flank and a spray canister from the one on the left and the whole setup had the coordinated quality of people who had practiced this specific configuration.Practiced on wolves.On shifted wolves specifically.Which meant they knew what they were dealing with and had prepared accordingly.Unfortunately for them I had also prepared.Not for this specifically. But for the general category of things that went wrong in ways that required everything available and left no room for managing the response.I shifted.Full Alpha form.The white coat settled into place and the world rearranged into the richer version and I was already moving before the first dart cleared the launcher. The dart hit the tree behind where I had been standing and I

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   073. The Prisoner in the Dark

    Blake's POV:We move before dawn.No one argues this time.The forest feels different after what happened to me. It listens more closely. Or maybe I do. Every sound lands sharp in my head. Every shadow feels layered, like something could be hiding behind it and behind that again.Lyra walks a few st

    Blake's POV:The attack does not come all at once.It creeps.The forest tightens like a lung drawing breath. Leaves shift in slow circles. Shadows move where they should not. I feel them before I see them. My wolf presses forward, alert and angry, claws scraping against my ribs like it wants out n

  • Mated to My Rival Step Brother   064. The Kiss to Escape the Phobia

    Blake's POV:The milk did not burn me.Alex grabbed my wrist fast and pulled my hand back before it even touched the pot. The milk spilled slightly over the edge, hissing against the stove, but my skin was safe. Steam filled the small kitchen.“Blake,” Alex said again, breath sharp. “Are you hurt?”

    Alex's POV:By Monday afternoon, it felt like the academy had learned how to breathe differently.Every step I took echoed louder than it should have. The halls were the same stone, the same banners, the same sharp smell of training oil and old books. But the air carried something else now. Attenti
