  • Once Rejected: A Slave To My Alpha Stepbrothers    Not what I expected

    Rio. All eyes are pinned on me, glinting with curiosity, whereas I stare at the elders in confusion. Hunter called them to a meeting to rat me out? This guy is definitely the worst person to ever exist in my life. Already, Veil is squirming behind me. I don't need to look to confirm it, it's as if my beast can feel every one of her emotions. Eyes back on Hunter, I gnaw at my lip while fuming. “What's the meaning of this?” He pretentiously gasps, clutching a hand to his chest. “I don't have a problem, brother. But it appears you do. So explain to the elders why you took down the pack's internet network yesterday.” The elders look bewildered, staring between Hunter and me. “Is there a problem, Alpha Rio?” Elder James asks, clearing his throat. “No…” “Actually, there seems to be a problem, elders.” Hunter blurts, intentionally intercepting me.I’m guessing he chose to expose me to the elders once he realized the journalists wouldn’t air his story. Bold move. I hope he knows it’l

  • Once Rejected: A Slave To My Alpha Stepbrothers    We didn't do anything

    Veil. For a full-blown minute, I didn't move, my lips stuck on his. I'm in a limbo that makes it difficult for my brain to process what's happening. All I can feel is the insane tempo of my heart against my ribcage. He hasn't moved his lips yet. Rio just pressed them on mine, savoring the taste of the seam of my lips. My senses return in full force, and I try to push him away. Instead, he grabs both hands with his, raising them above my head as he delves his silky lips deep into mine. My body dissolves into a mix of tension and sweet sensations. He takes my bottom lip into his mouth, nibbling on it hard with a deep, resonant groan vibrating from his chest. His big frame dominates mine as he straddles me, giving me a consuming kiss. Shit! This is all shades of wrong. An abomination in our pack. In the realm. What's Rio thinking, kissing me like a starved man? The brush of his tongue on mine sends chills skittering down my spine. His free hand comes up to my jaw, and he angle

  • Once Rejected: A Slave To My Alpha Stepbrothers    Kissing me?

    Veil. “Easy, easy there…” A soft, feminine voice coos to me the second I spring up awake. My eyes are owl-wide, fear rippling off of me as I look around, wondering where I am. I feel so disoriented, waking up in this strange place. The last thing I remember is Hunter pushing me off his manor's roof. That wicked asshole! The world as I knew it spun right in front of me as gravity pulled me to the ground faster than the speed of light. Five fingers wave before my eyes, pulling me away from the mess that is my memory. Blinking to clear the daze, I realize it's doctor Eliza. She has a pretty smile on her face when she looks at me. “How do you feel, Veil?” Her tone is nothing but soft compared to the rapid breaths I'm taking. I shake my head, feeling the lingering dread from that horrible experience.It's already dark outside. Just how long have I been out? “Where am I?” I blurt, looking through the small apartment. “My house. Alpha Rio brought you here.” I look away at the ment

  • Once Rejected: A Slave To My Alpha Stepbrothers    Goodbye, witch

    Hunter. I cut the call with Rio tersely, not caring about whatever shit he's saying.Lowering the phone in my hand, I walk toward the chest in my second parlor, picking up one of the portraits on it. His portrait. Chase. He was only ten in the picture with the brightest smile you could ever see on a boy his age.His innocent appearance never ceases to thaw my heart. Chase has always been innocent, untouched, until darkness came upon us. A life we never prepared for. He's on his bicycle in the portrait, and that was his first time riding a bicycle. I remember how scared he was doing it for the first time. He fell countless times, and I remember laughing and mocking him. My mockery made him more determined to learn how to ride that, even at night when everyone was asleep in “Shelter,” the place we grew up together, he'd sneak out just to learn how to ride his bicycle. During those nights, I'd watch him through the window, like his protector, while our mothers were out, doing th

    Rio. A deep groan rips out of my mouth as I stir from sleep, looking confusedly around me. Shit! I slept in my car parked beside the road. This wasn't intentional. I just got tired of expending too much of my alpha will yesterday on all the journalists in the pack. My fight with Hunter forced me to tap into a power I hadn’t used in years– the same power Quin, Hunter, and I were forbidden to use in the pack.It’s a form of compulsion that bends others to our will, but it leaves a surge of weakness in its wake.I had to pull over on my way back to the pack house because I couldn’t see clearly anymore. Everything blurred together. I felt like I’d been beaten to a pulp by a ghost.It appears I've been here all night, but I feel a little better now, though the exhaustion still lingers.My battle with Hunter has turned me into a hobo. Goddess, I hate that guy! I curse, jamming my fist into the steering wheel. If only I can get rid of him…I recall the extent I went yesterday visiting t

    Veil. We drive through the pack for a couple of minutes until we pull up before a grand, unfamiliar stone manor surrounded by trees. The steep, slate roofs and windows give it an elegant look. Jasper drives past the wrought iron gate, following Hunter through the long, cobblestone driveway that curves toward the entrance, framed by sculpted gardens. Hunter has already killed his engine, dismounting from the bike and removing his helmet, his movement brisk. He doesn't wait around for me. He just climbs the front stone staircase in three long strides, going into the house. I dismount quietly from the bike as Jasper stops, flitting my eyes around the place. “Where is this place?” I ask Jasper, but his response is shocking. “That's not my question to answer.” I stare back at him, biting my cheek inwardly in shame. I've almost forgotten my place in this pack, but the people do not waste time reminding me. He restarts the bike and drives away, leaving me standing there alone. That

    Emma. It's dark in the night, and I'm standing before the lands I'd instructed Veil to cultivate some days ago. It was an order I gave just to spite her, to punish her, and make her wish for death.However, I wasn't expecting it to turn out like this– fertile. The few places she'd cultivated the

    Veil. “You seem better this morning.” Gilly's voice comes from behind me, and I momentarily stop mowing the lawn to look at her. Her eyes are bright, not judgmental like I expected they'd be after what happened last night. She's carrying a heap of clothes in a basket while grinning at me. “Uh…y

    Rio. By nightfall, I leave the pack house in my 1967 Chevrolet Impala, playing slow music filled with tension, the type that gets me in the mood. Circling my mind in a loop are thoughts about Veil. I saw her earlier doing laundry, exhaustion clear on her face. It grates on my nerves seeing her li

    Rio. My lycan throws a quick fit inside me, pounding through my skull for a release. Deep growls build at the back of my throat, threatening to spill. No, it can't happen under my watch. Eyes still gleaming, Emma hisses. “What are you still waiting for? Get on your knees and pick them up. I'm or
