Все главы STEPBROTHER'S PUNISHES ME EVERYNIGHT: Глава 231 - Глава 240

Mia's POVThe sight of blood on Liam's arm sent white-hot rage coursing through my veins. These men—these monsters I once loved—had actually hurt an innocent person just for being associated with me.How dare they? How fucking dare they attack someone for helping me?"Those bastards," I snarled, helping Liam into my apartment. "Those absolute fucking bastards."Every time I think they can't sink lower, they prove me wrong.My hands shook as I cleaned his wound, fury and guilt warring in my chest. This was my fault. Liam was hurt because of me, because of my toxic connection to those four psychopaths.He was trying to help me, and they attacked him for it."I'm going to make them pay for this," I said, my voice deadly quiet. "I'm going to get justice for what they did to you."Justice. They deserve so much worse than justice."Mia, don't worry about it," Liam said gently, wincing as I applied antiseptic. "I can handle them."Handle them? They're dangerous, Liam. They're capable of anyt

Mia's POVThe silence stretched between us like a chasm, and in that moment, I understood everything I needed to know about where I stood with them.Still not worth the full truth. Still not trusted with the complete story. After everything I've been through, after all the pain and sacrifice, I'm still just a liability to them. They look at me and see someone who needs to be protected from reality, someone too weak to handle the truth."Get out," I said quietly, my voice hollow with disappointment.I'm done. I'm so completely done with this. My heart can't take another betrayal, another lie, another moment of being treated like I'm not worthy of basic respect. The exhaustion goes bone-deep now, settling into my soul like a poison that will never leave."Mia, please—" Xavier started, but I held up a hand to stop him."Just... get out of my house. Away from my children. Out of my life."Before I break down completely in front of them. Before they see just how much power they still have

Mia's POVI walked out to where my children were still playing, their laughter filling the air like music. The sight of their carefree joy strengthened my resolve about what I needed to do.These moments. I need to treasure these moments before everything changes.Before I have to become the Supreme Luna and leave this simple happiness behind."Hey, my loves," I called out, settling onto the grass beside them. "How would you like to go to the theme park tomorrow?"Like other normal families do. Like I should have been doing all along instead of just surviving.Normal. Such a foreign concept for us.Their reaction was immediate and explosive. Mika dropped her toy and launched herself at me, while Marcus started jumping up and down with excitement."Really, Mama?" Mira asked, her eyes wide with disbelief. "The big one with all the rides?"The big one. Where normal children go with their normal families for normal fun."The biggest one," I confirmed, laughing as Miraz joined the group hu

Mia's POVAfter Sean left, I turned to Liam with an apologetic expression, guilt weighing heavily on my chest."I'm so sorry about that," I said, reaching out to touch his arm gently. "Sean had no right to be so hostile toward you."He's always causing problems. Even when he's trying to help, he just makes everything worse.Liam has been nothing but kind to us, and Sean treats him like a criminal."It's alright," Liam said with that understanding smile that always made me feel better. "I can understand why they'd be protective of you."Protective. Such a generous way to describe their controlling behavior."Still, let me make it up to you," I insisted, heading toward the kitchen. "I'll pack us some snacks for the park."The least I can do after my ex-mate embarrassed us both.I quickly prepared a basket with sandwiches, fruit, and cookies, trying to salvage what was supposed to be a perfect day.Don't let Sean ruin this. Don't let their drama steal this happiness from the children."R

Xavier's POVWatching Mia hold her daughter brought me both relief and fury. Relief that Mira was safe, but fury at the whole situation.Something's not right here. Kids don't just fall asleep in random corners.This was planned. Someone did this on purpose.The way Liam stood there, acting like the perfect concerned boyfriend, made my skin crawl. He put his arm around Mia's shoulders like he had every right to comfort her.Look at him. Acting like he's the hero when I bet he knows exactly what happened.I want to rip his fucking head off."Thank God she's okay," Liam said, his voice full of fake concern. "You must have been so scared, sweetheart."Sweetheart? He's calling our mate sweetheart right in front of us.My hands clenched into fists. Nathan and Rolex looked just as ready to tear him apart.We can't do anything though. Not with Mia watching. He always hides behind her.Mia was crying and kissing Mira's face over and over. Watching her with our daughter made my chest tight wit
