All Chapters of Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas : Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

KAEL'S POV"You stupid bastard, what were you thinking?"Ronan looked up at me from the medical table. Blood covered his shirt. Deep gashes across his chest. His left arm hung at a wrong angle."Nice to see you too," he said through gritted teeth.I wanted to punch him. Would have if he wasn't already half dead."You went out alone. After we agreed no solo patrols.""I had a lead on the rogues.""Bullshit. You had a death wish."Doc Martinez worked on Ronan's wounds. Stitching. Cleaning. Trying to put him back together. The old human had seen too much werewolf blood lately."Easy Kael," Doc said. "Let me work."But I couldn't be easy. Not when Ronan pulled stupid stunts like this."Tell me what happened. All of it."Ronan winced as Doc cleaned a deep cut. "Got word about rogue movement near the south border. Went to check it out.""Alone.""Alone.""Even though we said never alone.""I didn't think they'd be ready for me."I laughed but it wasn't funny. "Ready for you? You're not Supe

RONAN'S POV "Start talking or I'll rip your throat out."The man in the torn cloak looked up at me. Blood ran down his face. His silver mask was broken on the ground. But he wasn't scared. That made me angry.Kael stood behind him. Still in wolf form. His black fur was dirty from the fight. Low growls came from his throat. The sound made the trees shake."You caught me," the man said. "So what?"I grabbed his shirt. Pulled him close. "So you're going to tell me who sent you."He laughed. It was a bad sound. Cold. Mean. "You think you're tough? My people have been killing wolves for hundreds of years.""Your people?" Kael shifted back to human. Put on his spare clothes. "What people?"The man looked at both of us. Like he was thinking hard about something. Then he smiled. His teeth were bloody."We are the Moon Guard."My heart stopped. Those were just old stories. Tales the elders told cubs to scare them. Warnings about ancient times."The Moon Guard is dead," I said. "Gone for centu

ELARA'S POV"You want to kill my son."I said the words slowly. Let them hang in the air. Ronan and Kael both looked at me. Neither answered."Say it," I demanded. "Say what you're both thinking."We sat in my living room. Luna slept in my arms. She was so small. So perfect. How could anyone want to hurt her?"Elara," Ronan started."No. Say it. You think my baby should die."Kael shifted in his chair. "It's not that simple.""It is that simple. Yes or no. Do you think I should kill my child?""The prophecy—" Ronan began."I don't care about any prophecy!"My voice was loud. Luna stirred. Made a soft sound. I rocked her gently."Tell me about this prophecy," I said. Quieter now.Kael took a deep breath. "My father told me about it. Long ago.""What did he say?""If a child bears the Dark Goddess mark, blood will drown the packs."I looked down at Luna. She was awake now. Her silver eyes looked up at me. So innocent. So trusting."What mark?" I asked."The eyes," Kael said. "Silver eye

KAEL'S POV"They found us."Elara's words made my stomach drop. She was holding our baby tight. Her hands shook.I looked out the window. Dark figures moved in the trees. Too many to count."How many?" I asked."Eight. Maybe ten."My heart pounded. We were screwed.Boot steps on the porch. Whispers outside. The sound of weapons."Alpha Kael!" someone yelled. "We know you're there!"I grabbed my knife. Not much against trained killers. But better than nothing."Come out now!" the voice said. "We just want the baby!"Yeah right. These monsters wanted my son. My newborn kid who was only hours old."Not happening," I said under my breath.Elara tried to sit up. Blood was everywhere. She was still weak from giving birth."Kael, don't be stupid," she whispered."Stupid? They want our baby."She nodded. Her face was pale. "I know. But running out there won't help."She was right. She always was. But every part of me wanted to fight. To kill anyone who came near my family."You have thirty se

RONAN'S POV"Someone sold us out."I said it to myself. But the words hung in the air like poison.Eight attackers didn't just find us by accident. They knew exactly where we were. Exactly when to strike.Someone told them.I paced the cave entrance. Kael was inside with Elara and the baby. They needed rest. They needed to heal.But I needed answers.The snow had covered most of the tracks. But not all of them. I followed what was left. Boot prints. Scuff marks. Signs of where they'd waited.These guys had been watching for hours. Maybe days.How did they know?Only five people knew about the cabin. Me. Kael. Elara. Marcus. And Derek.Marcus was ancient. Loyal. He'd die before betraying us.Elara just gave birth. She was barely conscious.Kael would never sell out his own family.That left Derek.My stomach twisted. Derek was Kael's beta. His best friend since childhood. His brother in everything but blood.But the evidence was pointing right at him.I pulled out my phone. No signal.
