Bound To The Alpha King's Brother のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

FINNIANShe walked toward me with fire in her eyes, and before I could even move, her palm met my cheek, hard. My head turned to the side.“I didn’t come here so you could embarrass me!” she yelled, her voice trembling with anger and pain. “I came because I missed you!”I chuckled bitterly, rubbing the sting on my face. “Really? You missed me, or you just needed someone to fill your time again?” My voice dropped, colder. “Rowan hurt you again, right? Because that’s the only time you come running to me.”Her lips parted. “What are you saying?! I couldn’t come because there was no way I could. But tonight, Rowan went out with my parents. They said they wouldn’t be back until morning. Even Elsa went with them. I finally had a chance to sneak out and this is how you treat me?”I knew she would say that. She always had a reason.“You always have a reason,” I muttered, stepping back. “If it wasn’t him, it was your title. If not that, it was your fear. There’s always something keeping you aw

ISOLDEBlood.I froze the moment I saw it, it was dark, fresh blood running down Velin’s neck, painting her skin red. My chest tightened, and the strength in my legs gave out. She staggered backward, swaying, almost falling but Rowan caught her before she hit the floor.My breath hitched. Did I do that?My hands began to tremble as I stared at the faint traces of black under my nails. Oh no. No, no… what was wrong with me?“What did you do to her?” Rowan’s voice sliced through the air like a whip. He was checking her neck, his fingers brushing her skin, his eyes dark with anger. Velin whimpered, pressing her body closer to his chest, pretending she couldn’t speak.“Rowan…” My voice cracked. “I-I didn’t...”“Do nothing?!” His voice deepened, dangerous.Before I could say anything more, Finnian stormed in. His boots hit the marble with heavy thuds, and when his eyes fell on Velin bleeding in Rowan’s arms, his jaw clenched.I shook my head, backing away slightly. “No-no. I didn’t do any

FINNIANDamn it.Why would she cross Velin?Why would she use her power?She should’ve known better. Velin was trying to provoke her. She always does. Isolde should’ve kept her patience like she always did. But no, she had to react.And now look where it got her, locked in that damn cell, and I couldn’t even do anything about it. I couldn’t convince my brother to let me take her to my own building. He didn’t even let me speak on her behalf.Everything was falling apart.And he... my own brother dared to raise his hand at her. The same man who had been playing sweet and gentle with her just days ago.Or was I hallucinating?I stopped outside Isolde’s chamber when I heard soft sobs. My chest tightened. That was Elsa's voice.Don’t tell me she hadn’t stopped crying since it happened.I kicked the door open, the wood banging hard against the wall.Elsa lay on the bed, her head resting on Daze’s lap. Daze looked up quickly and bowed. “Prince.”Elsa jumped to her feet, eyes red and tremblin

FINNIAN My eyes blinked open to the faint light slipping through the tiny window of the cell. Morning. The air was cold, damp, and heavy, but that wasn’t what made my chest tighten, it was the soft weight lying on top of me.I froze.Her breath brushed against my skin, warm and slow, as her face rested against mine. She was still asleep, still snoring quietly like she hadn’t a care in the world.Isolde.How the hell did I end up sleeping besides her?I frowned and tried to shift, but she stirred and mumbled something. Carefully, I slid my arm from under her and turned her on her side, meaning to put her down properly. But she didn’t let go, her hand tightened around me, like I was her lifeline.I sighed, my jaw tightening. I wasn’t supposed to stay. I was supposed to make sure she slept and then leave her alone. Yet here I was, her body against mine, the scent of her all over me.I pulled her close, just enough to catch what she was muttering.“Rowan…” she breathed softly.My chest h

FINNIANTwo massive wolves burst out of the thick bush. Their roars tore through the air, howls echoing together like thunder. The wind they summoned lifted leaves, dust, and dirt, blinding our eyes, making our horses stagger and neigh.“Cover your eyes! Cover your eyes!” I yelled, my voice slicing through the chaos.My men obeyed instantly. When the wind finally died down, I blinked through the dust, locking eyes with the two wolves standing before us. Same height. Same thick gray fur. Same blood-red stare. They had to be twins.Jared leaped off his horse before I could speak. “I’ll take them down, Prince. They’re nothing, they are just making empty noises.”I didn’t stop him. I wouldn’t waste thirty warriors on two pathetic rogues. Let him show me what he’d learned.The wolves moved back in perfect rhythm, then lunged at Jared at the same time. The symmetry in their attack made me raise a brow. Even their movements were identical.Jared swung his sword, metal meeting fur and flesh.
