Ember's POV

He said my name.

Not Ash. Not even a question in his voice. Just Ember....like it had been sitting on his tongue all along, waiting to crawl out and slit my throat in the quiet.

I didn’t sleep. Couldn’t.

I laid on my side, blanket bunched at my hips, back stiff as iron, staring into the dark like it had answers. My name buzzed in my ears louder than the wind scraping the windows. Ember. Over and over.

What did it mean?

That he knew?

That he’d known?

That he was going to drag me back to Magnus by the fucking hair?

I rolled over, slowly, eyes adjusting to the faint moonlight bleeding through the slats.

He was on the bed. Still. Like he hadn’t moved since.

Flat on his back. Arm draped over his eyes. Shirt half-ridden up, showing the stretch of scarred skin over his ribs. Legs slightly apart, boots still on, like sleep was something he didn’t trust either.

I swallowed hard, every part of me taut and wired.

Then I shifted toward him. Inch by inch.

“If you’re going to kill me,”

  • Wild Nights With My Lycan Step-brother    066- Called By Her Real Name

    Ember (As Ash) POvAll through the night, I could hardly sleep. In fact, I hardly slept at all. I just laid on the end, squeezed to a corner, my eyes wide open, hands folded to my chest, my brain racing with so many thoughts that literally made my head spin. But Zane on the other hand just breathed near me like he didn't care about anything, like he didn't care about the fact that we were in an almost decaying Inn. Finally, it was morning, the sunlight seeping through the cracks of the window, even the sunlight seemed exhausted, shining pale and almost thin. I sighed softly, then rolled on my back and felt Zane's spot now cold and empty. I frowned slightly, pushing my tired body upwards as I sat slowly, my ribs hurting badly, my muscles sore from being in one position for too long. And when I looked around the room, I found Zane standing just by the window. He folded his arms under his chest, his shoulders squared up stiffly, his jaws clenched tightly as though he was trying to

  • Wild Nights With My Lycan Step-brother    065- Stuck In A Room With Him

    note for my readers; if you see Zephyr, it's also same thing as Zane, thanks!!Ember (As Ash) POVAs we walked even deeper into the forest, we didn't stop, not even to take a breath. Branches and thorns reached out for me, dragging their claws on my face but I was quick to dodge their attacks with my hands. My boots were heavy, drenched in muddy earth and water, the rain dropping vigorously on our skins, washing away the blood that stuck to my body. Every nerve in my body screamed I pain, my ribs aching from the huge wound I had sustained earlier. But Zane? He didn't seem to be fazed by whatever was going on, he just grabbed me and kept walking, jaws clenched tightly, eyes cold and hard and I tried not to slow him down even when I literally limped by his side, my breath hitching, my chest thumping hard as I took in air into my lungs. Zane didn't even glance at my side, just kept walking like whoever was chasing was was closing in. The forest around us seemed to open even wider as w

  • Wild Nights With My Lycan Step-brother    064- He Hunts In Smoke

    Ember(As Ash) POVI wasn't woken up by any alarm, no. I was awoken by the loud, gutteral sound of an ancient horn from the mountains. The walls literally shook from it's impact, the ground vibrating as though it was about to split in two. The horn sounded so loud for what felt like eternity, almost as though it tried to summon your soul. I awakened in a holy, seating upright almost immediately, beads of sweat dripping down my face as I looked around. With each move I made, the chains I was bound with on my wrists clattered against each other, adding to the panic I felt inside of me. I tried taking a deep breath as I leaned my back against the wall, my legs curled into my chest as I wrapped my hands around it tightly. My breath hitched, my heart pounding vigorously in my chest as my eyes snapped rapidly around the dungeon. Then, in just a spilt second, I nearly fell after being hit by a scent that almost made me go insane. It wasn't smoke, no. And it definitely didn't belong to

    Ember(As Ash) POVThe cage door slammed shut with a ringing finality.Wolfsbane. Silver. Iron. Every inch of it was made to break things like me. My cheek scraped the rough floor as I landed on my side, wrists still bound, breath knocked out of me. My ribs throbbed from the impact. I didn’t groan. Didn’t flinch. Didn’t give them the satisfaction.A boot nudged me hard enough to flip me onto my back. I looked up.Lucien sat on horseback just outside the transport, reins slack in one hand, expression unreadable. That smug calm was gone now, replaced by something sharper. Calculating. Cold.Kaela stood beside him for a heartbeat, her eyes sweeping over the scene like she wasn’t seeing it at all. Her jaw was tight. Too tight. Something clenched beneath her skin.She stepped toward the rider closest to the bars and whispered something in his ear. Low. Quick. Intentional.Then she turned.And walked into the trees.She wasn’t coming with us.Why?I twisted slightly, watching her disappear i

  • Wild Nights With My Lycan Step-brother    062-Ember's Is Captured, Lucien Might Know

    Ember(As Ash) POVThe first thing I woke up to was the cold sting of the iron. Then, the bone breaking ache followed almost immediately. I hissed under my breath, writhing but unfortunately, I couldn't move my arms properly because they were tried behind me in a hard pull, twisted somewhat unnaturally that made my wrists and bones ache. My ribs burned as though they had been laced with acid, my shoulders screaming from the deadly pain of being twisted and my neck hurt from behind hung low for what felt like an eternity. I slowly brought up my head, blinking as the world around me spun, my body flinching. The air was heavy, almost suffocating, contaminated by the stale scent of rottening flesh, urine and smoke. I tilted my head up, the ceiling above me was already decaying after years of constant exposure to rain water, almost falling apart but was being held by thin woods. And I? I was hung like a meat at a butcher's shop, ready to be chosen and slaughtered, my body dangling as
