Riley’s POV

I was in a great mood when I left the clinic.

Odin and Olivia’s surgeries were perfect. Olivia woke up still acting like a diva, complaining all about the disinfectant smell in the surgery room, whining that the painkillers weren’t strong enough—basically just continuing to be a pain in the ass. But nothing she said could ruin my mood.

Right before they left, Odin looked down at me with those beautiful blue eyes of his.

“Promise me I’ll see you again,” he said softly.

Olivia let out an annoyed tsk not far behind us. I smiled. “We’ll see. Just try not to break the leg I just fixed. Be careful.”

And—see you tomorrow at school. I added in my head as they left.

Finally, today I had solved the most stressful problem hanging over me lately. Even the way I walked home felt lighter.

Once I got back to the castle and locked myself in my room, I grabbed my phone and texted Roy the good news:

[Hey, we don’t have to worry about teaming up anymore. I took care of it.]

I waited for 5 mi

  • Tempted By my Evil Lycan Stepbrother   Chapter 30: Dirty Piece Of Trash

    Riley’s POVI narrowed my eyes at him.“Is this a joke? Because if it is, I gotta say—it’s not that funny.”Silas burst out laughing. “Oh, trust me. I never joke about winning a competition. In fact, here’s the proof.”He handed me a slip of paper. I took it cautiously and skimmed through.It was… a transfer approval?It said that Silas had officially dropped out of his previous team and applied to join ours. And Mrs. Bright had already signed off on it.“I thought once the teams were locked in, no one could switch,” I said, frowning.“That’s true—for most people. But sometimes, rules don’t apply to certain people. Especially when that person’s dad is on the school board,” he added with a smug smile.I rolled my eyes internally.Of course. Another privileged rich brat. Why was my life constantly filled with this kind of people?“So… what do you say? Am I in or not?” He shrugged, hands in his pockets. “As you can see, I already dropped out of my old team. If you say no, well… that’d be

  • Tempted By my Evil Lycan Stepbrother   Chapter 29: Perfect Prey

    Riley’s POVI rolled my shoulder once and stepped back into the arena.“Let’s see what else you’ve got, asshole,” I growled.Vincent’s jaw was clenched tight. Ever since Ezra exposed him for sneaking in a knife, his face had been red like it was about to explode.“O-Or we don’t have to do this,” he stammered, almost desperate to get the hell out of here. “We can call it even. We’ll let you have the training room today—”“What? No, no, no, no, no.” I let out a loud, cold laugh. “You’re the one who came challenging me first. Now you wanna back out? Too damn late!”And with that, I lunged at him, fist aimed straight for his face.He scrambled back, panicking, and tripped over his own damn foot. It was perfect for me. I landed a solid punch in his gut and followed up with a sweep that knocked him completely off balance. He hit the ground hard with a loud thud.Gasps echoed around the room.Layla was jumping up and down, shrieking. “Get up, you idiot!”But I wasn’t about to give him a chan

  • Tempted By my Evil Lycan Stepbrother   Chapter 28: Dirty Tricks

    Riley’s POVMy eyes widened a little, stunned.I never thought that warrior would pick me as his opponent.Not because I was scared of him. But warriors and healers aren’t even on the same playing field when it comes to strength or combat skills.Like Danica once said, healers are usually protected. We’re valuable, but fragile.“Are you out of your damn mind?” Odin looked just as shocked. “You want to challenge a healer? Do you have no shame at all?”Vincent didn’t even look embarrassed. He actually grinned. “That’s the deal. Take it or hand over the training room.”“Hey, we’re already being nice letting you choose,” Layla chimed in, sticking out her tongue. “We could’ve sent out Silas instead. None of your team would’ve stood a chance. Vincent’s, like, average in our group.”I glanced suspiciously at Vincent’s bulky arms. The guy’s fists were practically the size of my head. That monster was average? Who the hell was she trying to fool?“No. Absolutely not,” Odin snapped. “There’s no

  • Tempted By my Evil Lycan Stepbrother   Chapter 27: Bullies

    Riley’s POVAfter that day, Odin and I kept going into the mountains for training. We were syncing up better with every session, which also boosted Odin’s confidence in our team.As for the kiss, it never happened again.And we both silently agreed not to bring it up.With less than a week left before the official start of Hunting Season, Olivia finally decided to join us.To train more effectively, I started booking the academy’s training rooms. These spots were in insanely high demand right before Hunting Season, so I had to stay up late stalking the booking site just to snatch a room for the next day.But despite everything, our team was finally heading in the right direction.“Great one!”I was clapping and cheering from the sidelines as Olivia and Odin wrapped up a sparring round.Odin clearly had the upper hand, but Olivia got in a few flashy counterattacks that made it a solid match. The two of them walked over, sweating and smiling, talking about things to improve during the n

  • Tempted By my Evil Lycan Stepbrother   Chapter 26: Perfect Kiss

    Riley’s POVRene lunged and knocked Ezra aside. She planted herself between him and Odin with a snarl, baring her teeth."...Riley?" Odin called out uncertainly, his hand gently brushing over my fur.That one simple gesture seemed to set Ezra off completely. His eyes blazed with something dark and terrifying."Get out of the way, Riley." he growled."What the hell is wrong with you?!" I roared. "What did Odin ever do to make you want to kill him?!"Ezra let out a cold, twisted laugh. "I just hate his existence OK? Do I need a reason to want him dead?""He's your classmate. He’s a member of your future kingdom, for fuck’s sake. You do realize this is a crime, right?! Do you have any idea how insane this is?""Do I look like I give a damn about laws?" he said flatly.My rage boiled over. I couldn’t believe this cruel bastard was supposed to be our future King. And worst of all, I couldn’t even get him out of my life.Rene felt the fury coursing through me. She arched her back, claws dig

  • Tempted By my Evil Lycan Stepbrother   Chapter 25: Fucking Crazy

    Riley’s POVI glared at him, furious. That shameless jerk!“Riley, your lips... what happened?” Odin asked, hesitating.“Nothing!” I said quickly.“You sure?” Ezra drawled, giving me a smug smile. “Because I know what happened last night. And I know who that guy was. You can’t lie about this, little sis.”“You know?!” Layla gasped.“Of course. We live under the same roof. Not that I’m thrilled about it either.” He shrugged.“Spill it, come on!” Layla said, bouncing with excitement. “I bet it’s someone totally embarrassing.”“Maybe the school janitor. Or one of the servants. Someone odd and disgusting!” Camila added.Ezra turned to me with a smirk. “Want me to tell them?”I saw the threat in his eyes. Those gorgeous green eyes—I swear, sometimes I just want to poke them out. “What will it take for you to keep your mouth shut?!” I hissed under my breath.“You already know what I want, Riley. I literally just told you.”I took a deep breath, fists clenched so hard my nails dug into my pa
