Lahat ng Kabanata ng Bound To The Alpha King's Brother : Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

ISOLDEI should have known they wouldn’t allow me. Rowan never made things easy. His command was iron, and the moment I dared step beyond three paces, three royal guards appeared like shadows cutting through the corridor. They bowed low, their voices echoing as one.“Your Highness.”Their respect only burned me deeper. I knew what it meant. He had ordered them to block me again. He always did this, caging me without chains.Fury swelled in my chest, but I forced myself to turn away before my voice broke in front of them. I stormed back through the marble hallway, my pulse pounding in my ears until I reached his chamber. I would face him myself if he wouldn’t let me near Finnian. Maybe I could reason with him… or at least demand the right to see his brother. Finnian wasn’t just sick; he wasn’t himself, and I knew he needed me.'I doubted that, a voice in my head whispered. Cold. Cynical. Like Rowan’s voice wrapped in my own thoughts. I shook it away and pushed forward.“Your Highness,

DAZEI didn’t even know what the hell was wrong with Arianna. No matter how many times I told her I’d send Marie to Prince Finnian instead, she flat-out refused. She clung to his side like her life depended on it.I wasn’t stupid, I knew why.It wasn’t because Prince Finnian needed her more than anyone else. It was because she couldn’t stand to see me. She couldn’t bear to look at me after everything. And maybe… maybe because she just wanted to be near him.She’s had that crush on him for a long time, hasn’t she?The thought made my chest tighten and my stomach churn. I should’ve been numb to it by now, but instead it twisted me in ways I hated. It made me question myself, question my love for her. Made me wonder if those promises I gave her... that I wouldn’t ever leave her were nothing but chains wrapped around my own throat.‘ACCEPT OUR MATE!’The roar from inside my head slammed into me so hard I stumbled, almost collapsing right there in the middle of the hallway. Wolves nearby

DAZE“Daze, I said leave my chamber now! I don’t ever want to see you again!” Felda’s voice thundered, sharp enough to slice through stone.I swallowed hard. My throat burned, but my pride wouldn’t let me argue. I knew her. She’d want revenge... silent, sharp, and I wouldn’t know where or how it would land. But if I walked away now, she’d chew on her anger until it turned into something worse.So, I did the opposite.Before she could blink, I scooped her up in my arms.Her nails dug into my chest. “What the hell are you doing?! Put me down now!”I didn’t. My grip only tightened. Her wriggling body against mine sent a storm into my veins. I carried her straight toward the bathroom, toward the scent of rose water still clinging in the air.“Daze! I swear I’ll...”It was too late. I dropped her straight into the tub, water splashing over the edges.She gasped, sputtering, wet strands of hair plastering to her cheeks. “Are you insane?!” Her voice cracked with fury.I didn’t answer. I turn

FINNIAN My breath shortened, dragging rough against my throat, like claws raking from the inside. My chest rose and fell too fast, each inhale sharper than the last.I didn’t think Isolde’s eyes could widen more than they already had but gods, they did. Her lashes trembled. Her lips parted like she was about to choke on a scream she couldn’t release. She became nervous and shaken. My heart throbbed at the sight, and I hated myself for letting Rowan put her through this.Elsa’s head tilted, a sly grin twitching on her mouth as she looked between me and Rowan. She coughed, impatient. “Your Highness...”Rowan’s jaw flexed before he smiled, cruel as always. “He thought he could get hold of a married woman simply because he could not find his mate.” He lifted Isolde’s hand again and pressed a kiss to her knuckles, slow and deliberate.My fingers curled so hard the tips ached.“Oh my…” Luna gasped, her voice dripping with pity. “Such a terrible fate. The Moon Goddess should at least look t

FINNIAN My brother’s scheme worked.Perfectly.I didn’t return to the palace until the night dragged its claws across the sky. The moon was cold and distant, like she was laughing at me. I had been sent to deliver that stupid letter and ended up staying at King James’s pack for hours longer than planned. He even offered to let me rest there for the night, but I refused. I was too angry. Too restless.I just wanted distance from him, from her, from everything.The ride back was long and heavy, and the air reeked of iron before I even made it through the border. Two wolves attacked me in the forest, they were rogues, maybe spies. I didn’t care who they were. I ripped them apart before they could even land a second strike. Their blood stained my hands and arms, dripping down to my sword until the blade was no longer silver.When I finally reached my chamber, I threw my weapon aside and stood there breathing hard, my chest rising and falling with rage that refused to die. I could stil
