Semua Bab My Stepbrother’s Forbidden Bite: Bab 1 - Bab 9

MENA"Now, remember, Mena," my mother began, using a fake sweet voice, "I want you to be on your best behavior because you have to impress your new father and brother. Your brother, Jude, is the Alpha heir, so you owe him a lot of respect. I want you to do everything he tells you to. Offer to clean his room and do nice things for him. Do it without question. Always serve him no matter what he asks. The bottom line is that I want you to get on his good side. Don't embarrass me."I turned my head slowly to look at her. Her look was pointed like she didn't expect me to rebel against this at all. "How can you ask me to do that, Mom? You want me to play maid to your stepson?""Don't give me that crap, Filomena!" she yelled, wide-eyed, just as she parked her car in front of her new house. It was a mansion, really. Her fake sweetness was gone now. "You have a lot to be thankful for because if it weren't for me, you'd be living in that dump your father left for you! You should be thankful tha

JUDEAnother scoff left my lips as I thought about my new stepsister.Mena.She could've at least been someone more fun to be around. But no—she was all stuck up, which made no sense since, according to Dad, she was an omega who lived in like a shack or something with her father before he died some weeks ago.Or something like that.What did she have to be so arrogant about? She was a nobody.This whole situation was ridiculous, and I was seriously considering moving out. My father went too far, bringing that woman's daughter into our home. I couldn't stand his wife and he knew it, and now, he wanted to rub more salt into my wound with her daughter hanging around the place.It wasn't enough that he and that wife of his had caused my mother to kill herself because she couldn't handle it when she found out about their affair? No, that wasn't enough. He married the bitch, made her the Luna of Black Dawn, and now, her daughter wanted to play the part of the perfect little sister.Fuck, I

MENAMy eyes were glued to the window as Jude drove. The music was so loud that it was starting to give me a migraine, and I was annoyed by the cigarette smoking filling the entire car because he refused to roll the window down. It was pure hell, and there was nothing I could do about it because I sure as hell wasn't going to complain to him or ask him nicely to put his cigarette out and lower the volume. I hated being this close to him. I'd only known him for a few hours, and already, I despised him. I had to admit that if I'd known that this was what I was signing up for by choosing to live with Mom, I would never have come. I would've stayed in Rebel Moon in the small place my father left for me, and I'd be much happier. That I was sure of. "What's the matter, kitten?" I heard him ask me over the music. "You don't look like you're having any fun."I wouldn't even bother answering him. Sure, he showed me around the pack, driving me around and telling me this and that in such a

MENA"So, Mena," Alpha Marcus began, "are you excited for the back-to-school party?"I looked up at him in surprise, then, my gaze slid over to Jude, who was seated right beside him, smirking at me in a way that made me want to scream out loud and pluck every strand of hair from my head. "Yes," Jude answered. "And it's called The Fresh Bash, not a back-to-school party."Mom winced as she picked at her plate. "Ugh. Why couldn't they give it a better name?""There's nothing wrong with the name," Jude answered. "You're just too old to understand anything about it.""Jude," his father chided before looking back at me. "You're not giving Mena a chance to answer the question. Well, Mena?"I cleared my throat. What choice did I have? "Yes. I am.""What's the dress code?" Mom asked. "I'm not sure. I'll just wear anything. Jeans. A T-shirt.""No, of course not!" she said a little too loudly. When she realized this, she glanced around the table and forced a smile. "You're the Alpha's stepdaug

MENA"All done!" the makeup artist proclaimed before stepping back. "I have to say...you look stunning!""Thank you," I told her shyly before my gaze slid over to my mother. She watched me with narrowed eyes, taking in my appearance slowly. Then, she let out a small grunt and said, "You look fine. Better than I expected. Worthy of this family, at least."I didn't let her words get to me, not even when I saw the look of shock on the makeup artist's face. Mom grabbed a clutch with gems all over it and handed it to me roughly. It was golden, like the embellishments on my dress. "You'll find everything you need there. Now, hurry up! Don't leave Jude waiting for too long. He's starting to get impatient."I headed toward the door. My body resisted and struggled against me. It didn't want to carry me down the stairs and toward my stepbrother, who was slowly but surely becoming a prominent figure in my nightmares. He was standing in the parlor with Alpha Marcus, and when they heard me appro
