All Chapters of My Brother's Worst Enemy Craves Me: Chapter 121 - Chapter 127

Chapter 121 Thorne's POV The perimeter breach was a decoy. I knew it the second I got to the east side of the island and found nothing. The alert had pulled me to the opposite end of the island from the dock where I had left Skye. This wasn't a breach. It was a distraction. I turned and ran. Trees blurred past me as I tore through the jungle while my bare feet slammed against the dirt path. I didn't feel the branches whipping across my arms. I didn't feel anything except the mate bond in my chest getting weaker every damn second. The trees broke apart and the beach opened up in front of me. The speedboat was still there‚ bobbing at the end of the dock. Skye wasn't in it. I jumped into the boat and searched every inch of it. Behind the seats. Under the dashboard. The storage compartment. Nothing. "SKYE!" I roared. Nothing. "SKYE!" Silence. I jumped back onto the dock and pressed my nose close to the boards. Her scent was here. Fresh. She had walked off the dock recently‚

Chapter 123 Thorne's POV I was pacing. Back and forth along the south dock like a caged animal while my phone sat silent in my hand. Drake should have called by now. The helicopter was up. The search teams were deployed. The lockdown was in place. There should have been something. Anything. But nothing. My phone buzzed and I nearly crushed it snatching it up to my face. But it wasn't Drake. It was Ethan. I stared at the name on my screen for a long second before opening the message. **I know we haven't been on good terms for a while now. And I know I'm probably the last person you want to hear from. But I need you to listen to me‚ Thorne. Please.** **Be extremely careful of the people close to you.** **I'm telling you this because Skye chose you. She loves you and she chose you‚ and I have to respect that. I do respect that. But because she chose you‚ she's in danger. Not from the outside‚ Thorne. From the inside. The people around you. The ones closest to you.

Chapter 125Skye's POVWe stopped moving.I didn't know how long we'd been going. Minutes? An hour? Time had lost all meaning inside this box. My legs were numb. My wrists were bleeding. The canvas bag was soaked with tears and sweat and every breath I took tasted like salt and oil and fear.But we stopped.I heard voices. Hushed urgent voices."—blocked. Someone sealed the east tunnel—""What? How?""I don't know. There are men everywhere. We need to go back and—""We can't go back! The boss said—"Then a very thunderous voice. "GET THEM!"Two words.Just two words.But I knew that voice. I knew it the way I knew my own heartbeat. I knew it in my bones and my blood and in every single fiber of my being.Thorne."Yes‚ Alpha!"Chaos erupted.Shouting. Scuffling. The sound of bodies hitting stone. A snarl‚ deep‚ guttural‚ animal. Then a crack‚ like bone meeting rock‚ followed by a sharp cry of pain that didn't belong to anyone I cared about.The box I was in hit the ground hard. I gasp

Chapter 127Thorne's POVMy jaw ticked. It ticked again. And again. I could feel my teeth grinding together so hard it was a wonder they didn't crack.I didn't want to believe it. I really didn't. I wanted there to be some other explanation‚ some misunderstanding‚ some reason why Drake's name was anywhere near what had happened to Skye tonight. But the fact that he had run told me everything I needed to know. Innocent men don't run. Innocent men don't escape islands in the middle of the night after their Alpha's mate gets kidnapped and drugged with wolfsbane. Only guilty men do that.And Drake was guilty.The thought made something dark and heavy settle in my chest. Not sadness exactly. Something worse. Betrayal. The kind that sits in your gut like a stone and makes you question every single moment you ever shared with the person who caused it. Every conversation. Every time I trusted him with information. Every time I left him in charge and turned my back because I believed he had mi
