All Chapters of Bite, Bleed, Bow (MxM): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Sage stands at the edge of the balcony, hands gripping the cold railings as the breeze tugs at his loose shirt. Ahead of him is the view of the forest stretched beyond and the sight of tall mountains. The wind blows through his brown hair and the night is cold against his skin. Sage doesn't expect to be home sick after everything that happened.What's the plan now that he's the Luna of Bloodfang Pack, the people don't even like him. Sage wanted power and now that he has it, he doesn't even know what to do with it anymore.His trail of thoughts is interrupted by the sound of the door opening behind him, followed by heavy footsteps. He doesn't turn; he doesn't have to, he knows that scent very well; it's now a second skin that glues to his body.“Another Omega?” Alpha Rowan’s voice cuts through the air; it's flat but sharp, with a hint of mockery and amusement attached. “That's what you're offering now?” Sage looks at the alpha as he stands beside him, his grey eyes drilling through Sag

The walls of the underground lab are damp and with dim lights flickering over his head, followed by the faint hum of machines echoing softly through the air like a fading ghost. The place is cold and dead.Seth walks in slowly, the thick scent of chemicals and blood crawling through his lungs and enveloping him like a thick, cold blanket. The door behind him clanks shut.Seth's eyes are cold and dead as he steps into the lab, his eyes instantly landing on Alpha, who waits at the center of the room, dressed in a white lab coat, a pair of white gloves in his hands and an amused smile tugging at the corner of his lips, like he's been expecting Seth for hours and his green eyes are dark with a glint that is both destructive and bone-chilling.“Took you long enough. How was your trip to Bloodfang Pack?” He tilts his head while Seth walks closer, the coldness in his eyes never changing as they pierce through the alpha's face. “How is that omega son of mine, Sage? I know he won't die easily l

Kieran stands before his father, his eyes hard, his jaw clenched, and his posture straight as he looks ahead with a blank gaze.“How was your trip?” Dagon starts, tilting his head. “How's your brother?”If looks could kill, Alpha Dagon would have dropped dead at the dangerous gaze Kieran drills through his face. “You sent Sage to Bloodfang Pack. You knew exactly what would happen.” Kieran bites his tongue and holds back the rest of his words.Dagon scoffs. “There are many times we can't control, even if we want to. Fate works in his own way, and your brother only served fate. Now you can continue being angry or you can accept it and move on. I protected him his whole life and trained him the best way I could. We both know he won't die easily in Bloodfang Pack. Sage is a fighter.” Kieran hands clench at his side. “You call throwing him to the lion's fate? He was barely more than a bargaining tool to you, so don't act like you care about anyone but yourself.”“I care about both of you

Seth stands among eight wolves in a loose circle on the pack’s ground the next day. He watches as they stretch or crack their knuckles, while he tries to appear noticeably distant and quiet as usual, and his expression is unreadable as he hides behind his sweater and hoodie.“Move it, mutt!” The snap comes without warning, and Seth turns just in time as he's shoved hard on the chest, his feet skid back before he falls to his butt on the ground and instantly, a roar of laughter follows from the other wolves.“Get up, pretty boy,” the one who shoves him says, staring down at Seth with a wicked glint in his eyes as if Seth is nothing more than an ant underneath his boot. “Didn't see you there, pal, maybe because no one needs a wolf-less mutt like you slowing the rest of us down,” Seth stares blankly, then he rolls his eyes and rises to his feet without a word, brushing the dirt from his palms. The wolf steps into Seth's personal space, their weight matching as he examines Seth’s face

The night air is thick around them; the cold wind sweeps across empty buildings, and the streets are darker than usual, with the clouds rolling over the moon, hiding it behind shadows.Their boot crunches against gravel as they patrol the eastern part of town, the one the Mayor warned has the highest number of missing persons.Kieran walks at the front with Riven, Seth trails behind Chassian with his hands in his pockets, his hoodie pulled up, not speaking a word while the others trail behind.The farther they go, the stronger the stench of blood till they round a corner in an alley and Kieran holds up his hand, causing everyone to come to a halt.He tilts his head, narrowing his eyes to look at what's in front of him; a pile of torn limbs lying scattered beside a dumpster with bones, flesh and clothes.“That's just disgusting.” Riven gags, putting a hand over his nose to block out the smell of death and rotten flesh.Kieran walks over, crouching beside the mess, while Cassian kneels
