All Chapters of Mated To My Lycan Stepbrothers: Chapter 351 - Chapter 359

SIERRA"Then it’s settled," I said firmly, standing up straighter, lifting my chin with determination. "I’ll learn. I’ll transfer the bond to an animal. Something harmless. A rabbit or a bird, anything."For a moment, the warlock just stared at me. Then he let out a loud laugh, an honest, surprised, borderline mocking kind of laugh that made my stomach twist."Your lack of magical understanding is quite admirable," he said, still chuckling, wiping the corner of his eye with a bony finger. "You truly are brave, I'll give you that. But no, Sierra. You can’t just toss a blood bond onto a bird like it’s a coat. That’s not how this works."My eyebrows furrowed as the bubble of hope that had been fluttering in my chest deflated completely. "But… why not? Why can’t I? I don’t understand."He shook his head and folded his hands over his lap. His voice turned softer now, more like a teacher speaking to a stubborn student. "Because blood bonds require something animals don’t have. A soul capabl

SIERRADane led me to a chair nearby, and the silence between us wasn’t awkward, just heavy.After a while, I took a deep breath. "I don’t like it, Dane. I don’t like that you’d be connected to Ariel in any way."He turned his head, meeting my eyes with a small, calm smile. "I know, Sierra. But this is the only way we can keep our little sister safe. You have to stop overthinking it.""How can I not?" I whispered, shaking my head. "What if we’re wrong? What if she snaps again and this time... this time she really hurts you?"Dane chuckled softly, reaching for my hand. His touch was warm, grounding me like it always did. "That’s not going to happen. I heal faster than normal wolves, remember? No matter what she does, I won’t bleed out."I looked up at him, my brows still drawn tightly with worry. "You’re too calm about this," I muttered, gripping his hand tighter than I meant to. "Too calm for someone about to be linked to someone like her.""Because if I start panicking, what good wou

SIERRAAriel glared at me from the edge of the bed, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, her whole body tense like a coil ready to snap. “You never let anything be, do you?” she hissed, her voice sharp and cutting. “You always have to meddle. Always trying to fix things that aren’t yours to fix. Why can’t you just leave things alone for once in your life?”I stood at the doorway, jaw tight, trying to hold back the fire building in my chest. I was exhausted, mentally, emotionally. But I wasn’t going to let her turn this around like she always did.“If you hadn’t gotten involved,” she went on, rising to her feet now, her voice rising with each word, “none of this would have happened. You think you’re helping your sister, but you’re not! You’re just making everything worse, Sierra. You always do.”I crossed my arms and met her glare. “You can blame me all you want, Ariel. I’m used to it by now. But I don’t care anymore.”Her eyes narrowed. “Of course you don’t.”“No,” I said firmly,

SIERRAI was exhausted. The warlock’s voice droned on as he drew another glowing rune in the air, but my mind was drifting. The symbols blurred, my magic flickered. I had been practicing for hours now, digging into ancient texts, trying combinations of chants and energy flows just to find a way to break the bond permanently. To end it. To finally be free of Ariel.But nothing worked."Again," the warlock said firmly. He didn’t even look up from the grimoire in his hands.I nodded, barely lifting my hands. My energy was fading. My spirit felt dry. And something else had shifted, something I hadn’t said out loud yet.My dreams were gone.The visions that used to haunt me every night, the ones from the Moon Goddess… silence. I hadn’t seen her in weeks. And the weird part was, I didn’t miss it. Not even a little.I felt like I was fading into something new. Or maybe… returning to myself.The warlock snapped his fingers. "Focus, Sierra. You can’t lose control now. If you do, you’ll only fu

ARIELI paced the room again, back and forth like a caged animal. My hands were shaking, my skin hot with anger. I hadn’t slept. I couldn’t. Not when I was stuck in this damn place, treated like some threat, like some monster. They wanted to control me. Break me. But I wasn’t going to let them.The door creaked open."Ariel," Sierra’s mother said softly, stepping inside with a tray. "I brought you something to eat."I turned around slowly, staring at the plate of food in her hands. The smell alone made my stomach twist, not with hunger, but rage. The nerve. The actual nerve to walk in here like I was just going to sit and smile and eat."Get that out of my sight," I said through gritted teeth.She blinked, her voice still calm. "You haven’t eaten all day. You need to keep your strength.""I said, get it out!" I screamed.She flinched but didn’t move. That only made me angrier. I marched up to her, eyes locked on the tray. My hands trembled, my breaths were shallow. I hated the sympath
