Semua Bab Bite, Bleed, Bow (MxM): Bab 221 - Bab 230

Seth watches Aviel sleep. He gently strokes the boy’s head oblivious to the war ranging inside of him. Aviel has been persistent in wanting to see his Mama and Seth couldn't bring himself to lie to the pup that Kieran is not his Mama. He blames Isabella for being uncontrollable despite fearing him.Their resemblance is uncanny, anyone with two functioning eyes can figure it outDoes Seth even have the right to stop Kieran from seeing Aviel? After all, Kieran did everything he could to save the pup, even losing his wolf; he was only fortunate that Damien found him before the real damage could be done.Seth tilts his head as he watches Aviel’s features. He looks so much like Kieran, it's almost impossible to tell them apart. These features remind Seth of how Kieran once looked; proud, stubborn, and arrogant, Seth saw all of that before he fell in love but then he remembers the betrayal. He can still remember the pain of being stabbed by his own mate and there comes that boiling fury and

Seth whirls the wine glass in his hand. He doesn't drink; he can't bring himself to swallow anything without being tormented by Kieran's expression of pain and horror.He shouldn't feel guilty, shouldn't feel remorse or anything for the blond-haired alpha, but his chest aches.He exhales through his nose and sets the glass down with a small clink. His knuckles are bruised and are taking time to heal. He doesn't even remember when he punched the wall. He tsks in annoyance.“Papa, can Mama join us for dinner?”Seth snaps his head so fast, finally coming back to the reality that he's having dinner with Aviel, Isabella, Damien, and Elijah.He blinks rapidly, almost hoping he heard the boy wrong. “What?”Aviel pouts. “I want to see Mama again. Can he join us for dinner? Please, Papa,” Seth freezes. For a long second, no one moves as the air around the table thickens while everyone else stops eating.“Aviel,” Seth says slowly, his voice tight. “You know your mama can’t join us.”“Why not?”

When Seth enters the cell that holds the nine elders of Ashbourne, they immediately snap their heads to look at him quickly, many of them scampering to their feet, but none of them dares to get close; the alpha in front of them has an aura of murderous intent covering him like a blanket.Seth pins them with a hard stare under his lashes, while ignoring the itch on the back of his head that he's been trying to control. He can feel his rut getting nearer and nearer, causing his scent to become more domineering and suffocating.“How long are you going to keep us here? Why keep us alive this long when you're going to kill us sooner or later?”Seth tilts his head at the elder who spoke while the others agreed. “Who said anything about killing you, Elder Harrison?” He inquires in a taunting tone.“Then what do you want from us?”Seth holds his hands behind him. “You're old, you no longer serve a purpose in or outside Ashbourne, which has been destroyed, but I'm willing to give you a chance.

Kieran's body shudders when Seth kisses the scar on his stomach, his whole back trembling as Seth squeezes his waist.Kieran is no longer pressed up against the wall; he's in bed, his clothes discarded, leaving him completely naked while Seth hovers over him, peppering every part of his body with kisses, and holding him down in a way that leaves his fingerprints on his body.Seth moves down, lifting Kieran's legs to get between them and immediately, his mouth latches onto the inside of his inner thigh, sucking and lapping until the skin turns hot and flushed, his tongue dragging across the tender skin greedily.Kieran's hips jerked involuntarily, trying hard to stay still, but his body betrays him. Heat rushes quickly up his neck, coloring his ears. He covers his mouth with his forehand to mute the lewd sound from escaping, biting his own skin to stop himself from jerking, but fails.“~Wait—don’t… do that. It tickles~” the whimper breaks out but Seth hasn't even started.His tongue sin

Kieran wakes up to the feel of sunlight reflecting blindingly on his face. For a moment, he doesn’t move. He only blinks at the ceiling, his body heavy, as if he’s been crushed under a massive weight while the air smells thickly of sex and mixed pheromones.He finally tries to move but lets out a cry of pain coursing from almost every part of his body, especially his lower back. With difficulty, he turns on his side and immediately, his breath catches in his throat when his gaze lands on Seth sleeping bare chest beside him, and just like that, everything comes crashing back; how Seth took him till he passed out from his own exhaustion.A blush creeps to his cheek as he draws closer to the warmth of Seth's body. Slowly, he brings his hand to his face, softly trailing a path from his forehead, down his nose to his lips. Kieran isn’t entranced by the sight. He’s lost in it.Seth’s chest rises and falls with each slow breath, the morning light casting soft shadows across his skin. His f
