Skylar's POV

Sleep refused to come no matter how tightly I closed my eyes or how many times I turned over in bed trying to find a comfortable position that would let me rest.

The mate bond pulsed with the twins' restless energy like a second heartbeat in my chest that would not let me forget they existed just down the hall from where I lay.

I knew they were awake and probably plotting how to handle Ethan and the threat they perceived him to be. Their anxiety bled through the bond and kept me wi

  • RESISTING MY COCKY ALPHA STEPBROTHERS    Chapter 129: The Return Home

    Ryder's POVThe journey back to Moonfall felt longer than the journey out. Every step carried the weight of what we had lost and what we had saved.We succeeded. The world was intact. The tear was closed. Reality had stabilised. Both dimensions existed separately but safely. Billions of lives continued in two different realms.But Jamie was gone. And that knowledge crushed me with every breath.Luna walked beside me in silence. She had cried so much that her eyes were swollen and red. Now she just moved mechanically forward like her body remembered how even if her spirit did not.Kai was worse. He had retreated into himself completely. His analytical mind, which always found solutions had failed to save the person who mattered most. The guilt was eating him alive.When Moonfall came into view my chest tightened. Home. Safety. But it felt hollow without Jamie walking beside us.Our parents were waiting at the territory bo

  • RESISTING MY COCKY ALPHA STEPBROTHERS    Chapter 128: Jamie's Choice

    Jamie's POVI had always known I was different. Human but never quite fitting in even before the infection changed me into something else.My friendship with Kai and his siblings gave me purpose. Made me feel special. Like I belonged somewhere even though I was not supernatural like them.Now I had a chance to save two worlds. But at the cost of everything I was. Everything I could have been.I looked at Kai. Luna. Ryder. The people who meant the most in my life. The family I had chosen even if we did not share blood.Through the infection, I felt the entities' desperation. Their hope. These beings were not monsters. They were just different and seeking freedom from a tyrant who had imprisoned them.I thought about my human family. My parents who did not understand why I spent so much time with supernatural beings. My younger sister who looked up to me.I thought about friends from school. Teachers who had encouraged me.

  • RESISTING MY COCKY ALPHA STEPBROTHERS    Chapter 127: Truth About the Guardian

    Luna's POVMy empathy suddenly clarified. The overwhelming flood of alien emotions that had been drowning me shifted into something I could understand.Jamie was right. The entities were not invaders. They were refugees.I felt their terror and their desperation and their hope. They had been imprisoned in a dying dimension for millennia by the being we had trusted as our guardian."She kept them trapped," I whispered. The realisation hit me like a physical force. "All this time she told us they were dangerous but she was their jailer."Through our sibling bond, I shared everything I was feeling with Ryder and Kai. The entities' true emotions. Their suffering. Their innocence.The guardian had fed us lies. Manipulated us to open the tear fully so she could expand her dominion over both dimensions at once."The prophecy was not about closing the tear," Kai said as understanding dawned. "It was about recognising the truth a

  • RESISTING MY COCKY ALPHA STEPBROTHERS    Chapter 126: The Betrayed Guardian

    Ryder's POVThe spirit guardian's betrayal hit me like a physical blow. She had guided our family for years and protected us and helped us understand our destiny.Why would she work to destroy our world now?"You look confused," she said. Her voice carried those layered tones that made my head ache. "Let me explain what you do not understand."Luna was still on her knees beside me. Kai stood frozen in shock. Jamie swayed on his feet with that unnatural light spreading further across his skin."You guided us," I said. My voice came out strangled. "You warned us about this threat. Why are you trying to open the tear?"The guardian's form flickered. For a moment she looked like herself. Ancient and wise and protective. Then she shifted into something alien and wrong."I have existed for millennia watching over supernatural beings in your world. But I was not born here. I am originally from the other dimension."The w

  • RESISTING MY COCKY ALPHA STEPBROTHERS    Chapter 125: Through the Dying City

    Kai's POVI had always relied on patterns. Logic. The predictable rules that governed reality.But entering the dimensional city broke everything I knew.Physics stopped working correctly. Gravity shifted randomly and sent us stumbling sideways or floating inches off the ground. Time looped back on itself and I watched the same bird fall from the sky three times in different locations.Causality became suggestion rather than law. Effects preceded causes. Shadows existed without objects to cast them. Sounds arrived before the events that created them.My mind struggled to adapt. Every calculation I tried failed because the rules kept changing. Variables that should be constant became fluid and unpredictable."Kai we need direction," Ryder said. His voice was strained. "Which way?"I pointed toward where the tear should be based on our maps. But in this place maps meant nothing. Space folded in on itself.We m

  • RESISTING MY COCKY ALPHA STEPBROTHERS    Chapter 124: The Fourth Member

    Luna's POVI felt Jamie's truth before anyone else spoke. The corruption spreading through my friend's body hit me like a wave of wrongness that made my stomach turn.But underneath the corruption, I felt something else. Fear. Determination. Love for my brother. Jamie was still in there and fighting to stay human."You cannot come," Kai said again. His voice held desperation I rarely heard from my analytical brother. "It is too dangerous.""He is already infected," I said quietly. Everyone turned to me. "Fighting it will not change that. But he is telling the truth about understanding the entities."Mom stepped forward. Her face was pale. "Luna what are you sensing?""The corruption is real but Jamie is not controlled. He has changed. Carrying knowledge we need." I looked at my friend. "You have been near the tear before. Haven't you?"Jamie nodded. "Three months ago. I went camping with my family near the mountains. The
