Semua Bab MARKED BY THE WRONG BROTHER: Bab 131 - Bab 140

The Devil’s Uncle.The howl outside had barely faded before another rose into the night filling the evening skyline while they watched.This one sounded closer. Closer enough that Bella felt it deep inside her chest.Everyone inside the room froze immediately as the sound came more frequently enough to show that it was getting closer. Aria still stood near the window with the curtain slightly pulled aside while Lydia remained at the edge of the bed clutching her own arms tightly.Another howl followed this time the door to the gates were opened. Then another as the estate suddenly exploded into movement.Below them, guards rushed across the courtyard carrying torches and weapons while voices echoed loudly through the darkness outside.Bella’s heart pounded harder.“What’s happening?” she whispered again.No one answered as it was clear they were all confused as she was…Even Eleanor looked tense now. That alone frightened Bella more than anything.Then suddenly they heard as footste

Her Unknown FateWalking downstairs felt longer than usual as every step Bella took made the fear inside her chest grow heavier until it almost became difficult to breathe properly. The hallway outside the bedroom was silent except for the sound of guards moving behind her like she was a prisoner being escorted toward judgment. Maybe she was.Aria walked close to Bella’s left side while Eleanor remained on the right with cold eyes fixed ahead. None of them trusted what waited downstairs anymore.Especially not after hearing the name Darius.The moment they reached the staircase, Bella froze briefly.The grand hall below looked darker somehow.More guards had gathered around the room now. The blood stain from the dead guard still remained visible against the marble floor despite several attempts to clean it. Bella immediately looked away from it…Her stomach twisted violently.Just then she saw him…Darius. He stood near the fireplace again with one hand resting behind his back while

A Reckless Plan.Perhaps all was over, maybe not fully as miles away from the estate, deep beyond the black forest and rocky cliffs bordering the northern lands, another fire burned beneath the rain.The lone shadow of a wolf made way through the warmth made by its flame as it moved with others between old abandoned ruins hidden beneath the mountainside.Some of the men with it remained in human form while others paced restlessly as wolves near the edges of the camp.A huge black wolf burst through the rain-soaked trees at terrifying speed before finally slowing near the camp entrance.The guards immediately straightened and several wolves lowered their heads respectfully as Theo crossed through the camp without stopping.Mud and rain covered his dark fur while blood stained part of his shoulder from a wound that had not healed properly yet.Theo finally shifted back into human form behind one of the ruined stone walls while breathing heavily.Rainwater dripped down his skin as he gr

A Price To Pay.Andre walked through the eastern hallway with two guards following closely behind him while the storm outside continued shaking the estate walls with violent thunder. The atmosphere inside the mansion had completely changed now.Everyone could feel it. Even the servants moving through the corridors looked terrified as though death itself had entered the estate quietly and sat somewhere waiting.Andre remained calm despite it all at least on the outside. His boots echoed heavily against the marble floor while his thoughts remained trapped somewhere else entirely.He thought about Bella.Every single time he closed his eyes lately, it somehow returned to her. He could see it all from the look she had given him to that feeling of fear that had been inside her face earlier.He could feel the lies. His betrayal and above all the way she still looked at him like she wanted him to save her despite everything.It irritated him far more than it should have.One of the guards b

In The Devil’s HandAndre dried the last traces of blood from his fingers before turning fully toward Eleanor; he knew what she was going to say before her or perhaps it was the heavy gravy feeling of guilt that lay in his heart.That feeling sat deep in his heart as he looked past her to the corridor that was quiet despite the looming war that was to come.One look at him was all it took and Eleanor was right there deep…So much that it felt like she was staring blankly at his soul.Eleanor remained standing near the doorway without moving closer.“You killed two of your own men downstairs,” she said quietly.Andre’s expression did not change; he sighed deeply as though taking it all in. Darius' words still sank in his soul regardless.“They were weak.” “They were afraid.” she corrected “There is no difference tonight.” he replied Eleanor stared at him for a long moment unable to recognize the man standing before her anymore. The calmness in his voice unsettled her more than the b
