บททั้งหมดของ Brother’s Best Friends Are My Mates: บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

Lia“I’m telling you, Michael’s a wreck,” I said, pacing back and forth across the room. I could feel the anger, fear, and frustration bubbling up inside me, and I couldn’t seem to settle. Every thought in my head kept coming back to him—Michael—and how out of control everything was getting.“He’s not exactly subtle about it,” Rain replied, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. He sounded more exasperated than anything else. “I caught him snapping at the delivery guy yesterday. Poor kid almost cried.”I let out a frustrated breath. “Yeah, well, I don’t blame him. He’s holding all of this inside, and it’s tearing him apart. He’s been on edge for days, and I don’t know how much longer he can take it.”Colby shook his head, his voice filled with sympathy. “He’s been through hell with Gabi being taken. I’d be a wreck too if my mate was in danger. I think we all would.”“No kidding,” Jesse muttered, his tone dark and heavy. “But the way he’s holding it in? It’s like a ticking tim

RainMy dad’s records were what helped me learn the name of the clan my family used to belong it. They were the Nightshade Eclipse, an impressive name for what was a clan that went back centuries. I was shocked to learn that, but thrilled. It was exactly what we needed.If they were this old then they had to know some ancient vampiric magic that we would be able to use to help our situation.Jesse must’ve heard me hollering in excitement because he burst into the room, holding… a spiked bat.“Jesse, my dude, where the hell did you get that bat?”“I made it,” he said, eyes darting around the room. “What is going on? I heard you shouting.”I coughed. “It was shouts of excitement, Jesse. I just learned the name of the clan my family used to belong to!”Jesse closed the distance between us, looking me in the eyes. I balked, taking a few steps back until I hit the wall.Fuck I was trapped with Jesse who looked mad. It was hard to tell with him but when you could tell it meant you should ru

LiaI’ve been working my butt off at school and magic lessons, barely having time to breathe. My usual time I wake up is now well before the crack of dawn. It’s strange getting out of bed before the sun has even risen in the sky.The last time I got up this early… well, I don’t think I ever did! Even when I was in my last year of high school I stayed in until the sun started to rise. There was just something unnatural in being awake before the sun has risen.But this time I don’t have this luxury.All of us have been pushing ourselves. With Michael still recovering, it’s up to us to get Gabi back.I thought Michael would heal faster, but the witches must’ve put something in the spell to specifically affect lycan blood. Sneaky coven, I thought.My teacher said that a good witch considered everything when they were creating a spell. Nothing was off limits because if it was then they could risk dying. She was tough and didn’t fail to pull any punches if I screwed up, but I appreciated he

RainFuck I was a nervous wreck.I had been training for… what felt like weeks. Bulking up and trying to make sure my skills were sharp and fresh.It brought me to this point; waiting in the lobby of the clan’s headquarters waiting to be called up for my trial.Everyone had come with me and was sitting beside me, wanting to make sure I had support. I kept flashing nervous smiles in their direction, hoping they wouldn’t pick up how nervous I was but they had to see it.Everyone always loved to tell me I was the type of person who wore their heart on their sleeve. It was exhausting that I lived that way, but I didn’t know any other way to be.“Rain, you're sweating bullets,” Lia whispered to me.I paled. “Am I?”“Yes and you look pale,” Colby pointed out. “If your goal is to look more like a vampire; good news. You’ve done it!”The laugh bubbled out of my throat before I could stop myself. I threw my head back and started cracking up laughing. It drew the attention of several people nea

LiaI nudged Rain to move his head out of the way so I could read the email he had up on his laptop. He grinned sheepishly, moving his head so I was able to read the email he received from the council this morning.Subject: Welcome to the Pack, RainFrom: Nightshade Eclipse CouncilDear Rain,It is with immense pride, honor, and great anticipation that we officially welcome you as a member of the Nightshade Eclipse clan.
