Semua Bab Blood Bound to my Bully Vampire Brothers : Bab 101 - Bab 107

Jerome’s POVI was so furious I could barely see straight. The city lights of Velmora blurred past as I pressed the accelerator, the engine of my car growling in protest. My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white, and every few seconds I slammed my palm against it, the sharp sound echoing in the confined space.I wasn’t even mad that she’d slept with them. That wasn’t the point. I was mad because their motive was to mark her, to sever the bond I had with Malia. They thought they could break me, cut me out, make me ordinary. They thought they could take away the only thing that made me special in this cursed city.Living as an ordinary human in Velmora was a death sentence. It was accepting a curse, a slow rot from the inside out. But these last few days, having the upper hand, feeling the power surge through me…God, it was intoxicating. I’d tasted what it was like to be more than just a shadow in my brothers’ world. I’d tasted what it was like to be king

Raven’s POVI stared at him with my heart pounding. “You’re insane. You know that, right? You’re completely, utterly insane.”He glanced at me, a small smile playing at the corners of his mouth. “You’re safe now. That’s all that matters.”I shook my head, tears streaming down my face. “I’m not safe with you. I’m not safe anywhere.”He didn’t answer. He just drove, his eyes fixed on the road, his jaw clenched.I fumbled for my phone, my hands shaking. I dialed Cassian’s number, praying he would answer, praying he would come for me.The phone rang and rang. And then, to my horror, I heard it ringing inside the car.I flinched wondering how on earth it got into the car, my breath catching in my throat. Jerome reached over, picked up the phone from the center console, and held it up like he woke a jackpot in life.“Looking for this?” he asked, his voice mocking. “You really think you can call for help? You really think anyone can save you from me?”

Caius’s POVWe didn’t breathe until we were blocks away from Aunt Kira’s house, the city lights of Velmora flickering behind us like the last embers of a dying fire. Cassian was driving, his knuckles white on the steering wheel, his jaw set in a way that meant he was thinking too much and feeling even more. Dante sat in the back, one hand on Raven’s shoulder, the other pressed to his own chest as if he could keep his heart from breaking through his ribs.I was in the passenger seat, watching the world blur by, my mind racing with everything that had just happened. The memory of Cassian slipping into Raven’s room, the way he’d hit Jerome who was hovering over Raven! God, he’d hit him so hard. I’d never seen Cassian lose control like that, never seen him risk everything on a single, desperate move.But it was already too late. The bond wasn’t broken. When Cassian’s fist connected with Jerome’s jaw, Raven collapsed, her body folding in on itself like a marionette with its strings cut. C

Raven's POVI stared at Caius, my heart pounding with frustration and confusion. "Why didn't it work? The bond, why didn't it break? It's so frustrating that I still feel his pain, that I'm still connected to Jerome in ways I don't understand."Caius ran his hands through his hair, his eyes dark with something I couldn't read. "I don't know, baby. I wish I could give you a definite answer, but I can't. All I know is that we're going to figure this out. We're going to save you.""But how?" I whispered, my voice breaking. "How can you save me when you don't even understand what's happening?"Instead of answering, he moved closer, his eyes intense and burning. "I can't give you answers right now but I can give you this, you don't know how badly I've been craving this."He kissed me, soft at first, then deeper and more desperate. His lips were warm and demanding, and I felt myself melting into him. I didn't refuse the kiss because, God! I needed it. I needed anything to distract myself fr
