STEPBROTHER'S PUNISHES ME EVERYNIGHT의 모든 챕터: 챕터 261 - 챕터 270

Mia's POVThe figure in the parking lot was still there, and my instincts were screaming that this wasn't a coincidence. After everything we'd been through - the attacks, the kidnapping, the explosion at the gas station - I knew better than to dismiss potential threats.This could be our chance. If someone is watching me, waiting for an opportunity, then maybe I can turn the tables on them.I took a deep breath and opened the mind link that connected me to the brothers. It was something I rarely used, preferring verbal communication, but this situation called for discretion.Xavier, I projected, keeping my face neutral. Don't react, but there's someone watching the hospital from the parking lot.I felt his immediate spike of alarm through the bond, followed by similar reactions from Nathan, Sean, and Rolex as he shared the information with them.Where? Nathan's mental voice was tight with concern.Dark clothing, standing behind the white van near the east entrance. They've been there

Xavier's POVEvery instinct I had was screaming at me to abandon this plan and storm into that warehouse to get Mia back. Watching her be carried away by those bastards was torture beyond anything I'd ever experienced.She's doing her job, I kept reminding myself as we followed at a careful distance. She's the Supreme Luna. Protecting the werewolf community is part of who she is.But knowing that didn't make it any easier to watch."I don't like this," Nathan said from the passenger seat, his knuckles white as he gripped the door handle. "We should have gone in the moment they took her from the hospital.""She's right though," Sean said grimly from the back seat. "If we want to catch whoever's really behind this, we need to see where they take her.""And if something goes wrong?" Rolex asked, his voice tight with concern. "If they hurt her before we can get to her?""They won't," I said with more confidence than I felt. "She's too valuable to them. They need her alive."At least I ho

Mia's POVConsciousness returned to me slowly, like swimming up from the bottom of a deep, dark pool. The first thing I noticed was that I wasn't in pain. The drugs they'd injected me with should have left me groggy and disoriented for hours, but instead, I felt surprisingly clear-headed.My healing abilities must have processed the sedative faster than they expected.I kept my eyes closed and my breathing steady, listening carefully to my surroundings. The room I was in felt different from what I'd expected - there was no damp concrete smell of a typical warehouse or basement. Instead, I detected the scent of expensive leather, polished wood, and high-quality fabrics.This isn't some makeshift prison. This is someone's private space. Someone with money and taste.The bed beneath me was comfortable, with what felt like silk sheets and down pillows. Wherever I was, whoever had brought me here had resources far beyond what I'd expected from a rogue organization.Footsteps approached th

Mia's POVThe masked leader returned an hour later, clearly expecting me to have changed my mind about cooperating. But I'd spent that time strengthening my resolve, not weakening it."Have you reconsidered?" he asked, his distorted voice carrying an edge of impatience."Show me proof first," I said coldly. "Then we'll talk about cooperation.""I've already explained that transporting them would take time-""Then I guess we're at an impasse," I interrupted. "Because I'm not doing anything until I see them with my own eyes."I could feel his frustration building, but I pressed my advantage. "You know what? Maybe you should just kill them. They've done nothing but cause me pain and heartbreak for years. Why should I risk myself to save them?"The silence that followed was heavy with shock."You're bluffing," he said finally."Am I?" I laughed, but there was no humor in it. "Xavier, Nathan, Sean, and Rolex - they abandoned me when I was pregnant. They rejected me, humiliated me, made me f

Nathan's POVThe pain was constant, a burning fire in my veins that made every breath feel like inhaling glass. But I'd learned to work with it, to use it as fuel rather than letting it break me.Stay conscious. Stay alert. That's the only way we survive this.I'd noticed something important over the past few hours - the guards had a pattern. They were giving more wolfsbane to Sean and Rolex because they were showing more visible signs of distress. Meanwhile, I'd been pretending to be weaker than I actually was, groaning and slumping in my chains while secretly conserving my strength.The result? My last injection had been smaller, and my wolf healing was starting to kick in, slowly burning through the poison in my system.Just a little more time. I need just a little more time to get strong enough to break these chains.I tested them subtly, pulling with just enough force to gauge their strength without alerting the guards. The metal was thick, designed to hold even an alpha in his
