LUCAS’S POV

I took an uncertain step forward.”What’s going on Kael?”

His gaze locked on Xane, assessing him with barely concealed animosity like he’d just sniffed out a threat.

“Hey,” Kael said, voice tight, eyes sharp.

“Hey?” I replied, confused by the sudden tension that clung to him and how hesitant he suddenly seemed. Like he didn't want to speak.

He didn’t answer me, Instead, he tugged at my arm and jerked his head toward the school field.

“I need a word,” he said under his breath.

I glanced back at Xane, who looked mildly amused like he was watching his favorite tv show.

Seriously?

“Uh, sure.” I followed Kael into the field and leaned against the pole. “What’s wrong with you?”

“When are you heading home?” Kael asked, skipping over my question completely.

“What?” I blinked. “That’s what you pulled me aside for? I thought you said something was wrong?”

He glanced behind me at Xane, then back at me. “I lied, I’m taking you home. He’s waiting.”

“He?” I tilt

  • Sinister Storm   Mystery Alpha

    Mystery AlphaLucas PovMy grip on the container tightened. "I'm sorry, but I don't know anything about that. You should try the information desk."The man's smile widened, showing too many teeth. "Of course. But allow me to introduce myself first—I'm Alpha Louis Xander of the Blackwolf Pack."The name should have meant something to me, but it didn't. I'd never heard Xane mention anyone named Louis Xander, and given how private Xane was about his family, I doubted he'd want some random alpha showing up unannounced. Especially not one who made my skin crawl just from standing near him."I knew Xane's father quite well," the alpha continued, his voice smooth and practiced. "And I'm also an old friend of his mother's. I'm just trying to reconnect with the family. You understand how it is—sometimes people lose touch, and then suddenly you realize how much time has passed."He was lying. I didn't know how I knew, but I was absolutely certain. Maybe it was the way his eyes didn't match his

  • Sinister Storm   Discharged

    DischargedLucas POVThe funeral had left me feeling like I was walking through fog—thick, suffocating, and disorienting. I'd gone through the motions, stood where I was supposed to stand, said what I was supposed to say, but none of it felt real. Brittney was gone, buried in the ground while people who barely knew her said beautiful things about a future she'd never have. And I'd stood there feeling like the worst kind of fraud, because even in death, I couldn't give her what she'd wanted from me.Now, standing outside the hospital with a container of my mother's lasagna in my hands, I felt like I could finally breathe again. Xane. I needed to see Xane, to make sure he was really okay, that the wolfsbane hadn't done any permanent damage. That's what I told myself, anyway. The truth was more complicated—it always was when it came to Xane.I pushed through the hospital's main entrance, nodding at the receptionist who'd seen me enough times in the past twenty-four hours to recognize me.

  • Sinister Storm   Touch her again and i’ll kill you

    Xane’s PovLater that afternoon,the doctor cleared me for discharge so here I was, seated in a wheelchair while my mum signed off on the discharge paperworks.“Make sure he gets lots of rest, no strenuous movements and he should stay hydrated.”my assigned nurse said as she filled out some prescription and handed it over to my mum. My mum nodded as she took the prescription from her. “Thank you so much, Anna. You’ve been such a great help.”The nurse gave me a warm smile, which made her eyes light up before she pushed me out of the double doors.“Do I really need to be seated in this?” I whined.“Hospital policy,” Anna chirped from behind me. “So make sure you don't give your mum any stress once you get home.”I hated the sound of those two words. Policy. Rules. Restrictions. They always seemed designed to strip you of dignity. My legs worked fine, mostly, but apparently the staff couldn’t risk my tripping and suing the whole establishment. So I sat there like some frail old man, mus

  • Sinister Storm   Be strong for the right reasons

    Lucas’s povThe weather was gloomy today.The burial site looked like something out of an old black and white film. The sky was low and heavy, clouds rolling across in slow waves that seemed to smother any trace of color. Even the flowers looked dull in the gray light.I stood off to the side with Bennet, close enough to look like I belonged but far enough that I felt like an intruder. That was the thing,I didn’t feel like a fiancé who just lost his fiancée, I felt like an actor caught in the wrong role, waiting for someone to notice and drag me off the stage. I felt like an intruder.Brittney’s parents stood at the front. Her mother’s soft sobs floated through the quiet graveyard, her handkerchief pressed against her trembling lips. Her father stood stiffly beside his wife, rigid and stoic, and didn’t move except to tighten his jaw now and then.My mum stood a few rows back with Bennett’s parents and his sister Zoe. Her eyes were red but dry, her posture rigid like she was holding h

  • Sinister Storm   Take care of yourself okay

    Lucas’s PovBennett’s words dragged me out of my sleepy haze.Brittney’s burial is today.I’d known it was coming, of course I had. But hearing it spoken aloud made it real in a way I wasn’t ready for. I felt a sharp painful tug in my chest, pulling me out of the fog of exhaustion I’d been drifting in. Suddenly I was upright in the chair, my heart pounding like I’d just been jolted awake.“Right,” I said quietly, though my throat felt like sandpaper. “The burial.”The word itself felt final.Xane’s gaze lingered on me, cautious and steady, like he was measuring every crack in me and deciding how hard I might break. I hated that I couldn’t read him the same way anymore.“You okay?” he asked, his voice soft, quite soft for someone who had been raised to keep his guard up.I forced a nod. “Yeah. I just… I need to go.” The words sounded hollow even to me.I pushed up to my feet, my legs unsteady, the room tilting, suddenly reminding me how little sleep and food I’d managed these last few

  • Sinister Storm   Something you need to do

    Bennett’s PovThe buzzing of my phone dragged me out of sleep. It sounded like a mosquito was performing in my ear. I groaned, groping blindly across the nightstand until my hand closed over my phone. The screen burned my eyes, the light too bright in the dim morning light.My eyes focused on the phone and then I froze.Incoming call from Xane.My heartbeat stuttered, and the sleep I had been in was completely forgotten. His name lit up in sharp white letters, a message beneath it.‘Come pick Lucas up. He’s fast asleep here.’I sat bolt upright, raking a hand through my hair. My throat went dry. Xane was awake? I had no idea. The Last I heard, he was still under, fighting to purge the wolfsbane that had nearly killed him. Relief rushed in first swift and dizzying—followed by the heavy weight of worry. Lucas had been with him all night?I thumbed out a reply before I could think too much.‘I’m coming.’There was no time to hesitate or even ask questions, I needed to move.I threw back
