All Chapters of Monster Can Love Too: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

The photo on the screen didn’t lie.Same face. Same jaw. Same damn eyes.But twisted.Noa stared, heart hammering like a warning bell. The man in the picture had blood on his shirt and rusted chains around his wrists. His head was tilted like he was listening to something only he could hear. Like the silence was talking back. Like madness had found a home in him.Alessio leaned in. “Is that”“My brother,” Noa said, voice low. “That’s him.”The car jerked over a pothole. Rook groaned softly in Ivy’s lap, still out cold but breathing. Eve didn’t speak. She sat slumped against the window, wrists zip-tied, dried blood down her neck. Her eyes were open, but dead.Alessio’s voice cut through the silence. “You told me he was gone.”“I thought he was.” Noa gripped the phone tighter. “I thought she killed him.”Ivy glanced back. “Who sent the message?”Noa didn’t answer.Because he didn’t know.No name. No number. Just UNKNOWN.He stared at the message again.“Nice work, little brother. Now it

Noa’s fist shot out before he even thought about it, slamming into the dashboard with a crack. The screen in Ivy’s hand shook with the impact. Alessio swore under his breath, already grabbing the wheel and jerking the car into a hard U-turn that sent tires screaming on the pavement. Ivy’s knuckles whitened around her phone as the live feed flickered but stayed steady. The camera inside their safehouse showed Rook curled up on the cot, eyes open now terrified, like he could feel something wrong but didn’t know what.Behind him, the door creaked wider.Noa leaned between the front seats, voice rough. “Floor it. Don’t stop. Just drive.”Alessio didn’t need to be told twice. The car roared forward, eating up distance like a wild animal. Noa’s thoughts were a storm ash, blood, steel, betrayal but underneath it all, only one name screamed loud enough to drown the rest.Rook.That stupid brave kid who took a bullet that wasn’t meant for him. Who chose to protect, even when he had no idea who

Blood was everywhere.Hot. Slippery. Thick between Noa’s fingers.He pressed both hands to Alessio’s stomach, shaking so violently he couldn’t tell if it was the blood or his bones that were trembling. His voice cracked, stuck between begging and screaming. “Stay with me, stay with me Alec, don’t you dare fucking leave me now”Alessio’s lips parted, but only a small gasp escaped. No words. Just pain.“No no, don’t go quiet. Say something. Yell at me. Tell me I’m stupid, tell me I talk too much say anything”But Alessio’s eyes were rolling back, lids fluttering.He was slipping.“Noa!” Ivy’s voice cut through the chaos, sharp and terrified. “He’s crashing, we need to move him! Now!”“I can’t let go,” Noa whispered, choking. “He’s still bleeding”“I’ve got pressure,” Ivy said, shoving her hands over his, forcing him to let go. “Go get help. NOW.”Noa’s legs didn’t work right. The world was spinning, the floor too far away. He stumbled back, one hand soaked in red, the other reaching tow

“No.”Noa’s scream ripped out of him like something primal. Animals. The kind of sound that didn’t belong to a man but a beast with everything to lose. He dropped to his knees as Rook hit the ground beside him limp, his breath caught in his throat, his mouth parting in shock.Blood soaked the front of his shirt.Bright.Hot.Too fast.“Noa” Rook gasped, his hand clutching at the wound, voice strangled. “I can’t breathe”Noa’s hands flew to his chest, pressing down. “Stay with me. Stay with me. You’re okay, it’s okay, I’ve got you, baby, I’ve got you.”But the blood wouldn’t stop.Luca was already crouched beside them, yelling into his earpiece. “WE NEED EXTRACTION NOW. SNIPER ON THE ROOF. GET A MEDIC GET A FUCKING”Another shot rang out.They ducked.Ash’s voice floated across the roof, too calm, too slow.“He was never supposed to make it this far,” he said, pacing the edge like a bored magician. “But I’m proud. You almost made me believe he could change you.”Noa’s chest heaved. “Yo

Noa didn’t speak for an hour.Not to Ivy.Not to Alessio.Not even to himself.He just stared at the classified page. That name Sabine Hartmann burned itself into his skull like a brand.Biological mother.What a joke.He’d spent years wondering who made him. Years pretending it didn’t matter. Years trying to claw his way out of the monster pit he’d been born into.Turns out, the bitch who made the monsters was the one who made him too.“I need air,” he muttered.Alessio blocked the door. “You’re not going anywhere alone.”Noa’s eyes cut to him, sharp. “Are you going to put me on a leash next?”“Don’t tempt me.”“Then back off.”“No.”The word hit like a slap. Noa blinked, stunned by the heat in Alessio’s voice.“I’m not letting you spiral into this alone,” Alessio said. “You want to punch something? Punch me. You want to scream? Do it in my face. But I’m not letting you run.”Noa’s throat tightened. “You don’t get to play the hero. Not when you’ve been hiding this from me.”“I didn’t
