All Chapters of Bound To The Alpha King's Brother : Chapter 101 - Chapter 107

ISOLDE“Prince Finni...”Before I could even finish his name, he pulled me into a dark corner of the hallway. My breath caught in my throat. His hand was firm on my arm, his touch was hot and steady. My heart pounded so loud I could hear it in my ears. I was about to ask what he was doing when he suddenly bent close, so close I could feel his breath on my lips.“What...”He didn’t let me finish. His lips crashed into mine.It wasn’t rough, not really… it was desperate. His mouth moved against mine like he had been starving for this moment. My eyes stayed open for a heartbeat, seeing his closed lashes, his furrowed brows, that small tremble at the corner of his lips and then I gave in. My eyes fluttered shut as heat spread through me, warm and dizzying.His hand slid around my waist, pulling me against his hard chest. His scent hit me... pine, smoke, and something wild that was all Finnian. My fingers gripped the front of his armor, my knees felt weak, and my thighs trembled from how c

ISOLDEThe moment I reached the venue, my breath caught. The whole place shimmered like a dream. The moonlight hit the golden fabrics that draped from the high wooden beams, silver candles flickering across the long tables. Wolves and some witches from noble houses filled the air with laughter and perfume. The elders sat straight, proud and watchful, their long robes brushing the stone floor.I moved through them, their whispers following me. Some bowed their heads as I passed, some pretended not to see. I smiled softly, being queen was more about pretending than power.King James was the first to spot me. “Your highness,” he greeted warmly, rising halfway from his seat. I curtsied, ignoring the way Rowan’s gaze burned from across his tent, silent and demanding. He wanted me to go to him first, I knew it. But not even he could stop me from showing respect to the kings.Then came King Arthur. The man who thought every woman should melt at his smile. He reached out, catching my hand be

ISOLDEHer hands shook so badly that she almost dropped the cup. Something wasn’t right. Rowan had sensed it too, I could see it in his eyes, sharp and dark as the night sky.“I said…”Rowan's voice stern, her knees hitting the floor at the weight of his voice, “You should drink it… before I ask my guard to help you.”She was crying now, her face wet with fear. My heart thudded. If she couldn’t even drink it herself… how was I supposed to?Poison.My eyes shot up, and before I could speak, Elsa’s eyes turned dark, her wolf coming forward. “How dare you?” she snapped, her voice cutting through the room like thunder. “How dare you poison her drink and bring it to her?”The maid collapsed in tears. “I-I’m sorry, your highness! I didn’t mean to! Please, forgive me! It’s a mistake... it will never happen again!”Rowan leaned forward in his chair, his face void of emotion. “Sure,” he said coldly, nodding once. “It won’t.”The entire venue went still. Even the air stopped moving. No one dared

ISOLDEI stepped out of the bath, my body still trembling from everything that had happened. The night air brushed my skin as I slipped into a plain nightdress and tied the rope at my chest. The soft fabric clung to me as I walked back into his chamber.Rowan sat at his desk, his shoulders stiff, his eyes lowered to a parchment only he understood. The candlelight caught the edge of his jaw, sharp and unreadable.He didn’t look at me.I didn’t speak.The silence between us was heavy and thick like smoke. I moved toward the mirror, trying to dry my hair, pretending his presence didn’t burn at the edge of my reflection. He kept reading. The sound of pages turning was the only thing alive in the room.For a moment, I wondered if I had gone too far earlier. Maybe I should have thanked him more… or said less. He had saved me, after all. I could still feel the echo of his voice when he ordered the guards.That voice always carried weight. Even when he was gentle, it sounded like a command.I
