All Chapters of Claimed by My Alpha's Ruthless Twin Brother : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Kael didn’t wait for my answer.One second he was in front of me, the next his arm was around my waist, pulling me against his chest. My protest died in my throat as the world tilted.“Kael!” Kade’s roar shook the chandeliers.“Try and stop me,” Kael said over his shoulder, not even looking back.The last thing I saw before we hit the doors was Kade’s face - furious, pale, barely holding back his wolf.Then we were outside, and the cold night air hit me like a slap.Kael moved fast. Too fast for a human.He threw me into the passenger seat of a black SUV, slammed the door, and was in the driver’s seat before I could catch my breath.“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” I hissed, yanking at the door handle. Locked. Of course.“Getting you out of there before my brother does something stupid,” he said calmly, starting the engine. The sound was low, dangerous, just like him.“You kidnapped me!”“No,” he glanced at me, silver eyes gleaming in the dark. “I saved you. There’s a differ

I should’ve killed him.The moment Kael dragged Aria out of my ballroom, I should’ve shifted and ripped his throat out in front of everyone.But I didn’t.Because if I did, the council would declare me unfit to rule. And if I’m not Alpha, I can’t protect her.So I stood there. I watched my twin steal the only woman I’ve ever loved.And I let him.The worst part? She didn’t fight him.Not really.When Kael said _“You’re mine now,”_ her eyes didn’t fill with fear. They filled with something worse.Hope.I’ve been pacing my office for six hours.The council meeting is in three days. They’re calling it a “parley.” What it really is, is a trial. Kael will claim he took her to protect her from my father’s debt. He’ll paint me as the cruel Alpha who rejected his mate and let her be sold to rogues.And he won’t be wrong.Because I did reject her.---*[Flashback – One Year Ago, Before the Ceremony]*The council chamber smelled like old blood and politics.My father sat at the head of the tabl

*POV: Kael*She walked away from both of us.And for the first time in my life, I didn’t chase.Kade looked like he wanted to punch me. Like he thought this was my plan all along. It wasn’t.I knelt because I meant it. If Aria wanted to build her own pack, I’d follow. If she wanted to be alone, I’d guard her from the shadows. If she wanted Kade, I’d break myself before I hurt her again.That’s what loving her did to me.Kade broke the silence first. “You’re insane,” he said. “You just bowed to her.”“She’s worth it,” I replied. He scoffed. “And what now? We just let her leave?”“We let her choose.” I stood up, brushing dirt off my knees. “For once, Kade, it’s not about you or me. It’s about her.”His jaw clenched. “I’m not giving up on her.”“Good,” I said. “Neither am I. But if we fight over her now, we lose her forever.”For once, he didn’t argue.We left the border together. Not as brothers. Not as enemies. As two wolves waiting for their Luna to call them home.

We’d been a pack for two weeks.Twelve people became thirty-seven. Rogues, rejected omegas, betas who’d had enough. We didn’t have a formal hierarchy. We had roles. Hunters hunted. Builders built. Healers healed.And everyone ate.That was the rule. No one in Blackwood Pack went hungry.But peace doesn’t last when you’re building something the old world hates.---*Morning: The First Sign*I found the dead rabbit nailed to the cabin door.Its throat was slit clean, but the message was messy. Carved into the wood above it: _“Leave or die.”_Kael saw it first. His hand went to his knife instantly. “Rogues,” he said. “Iron Fang again.”Kade knelt, sniffing the wood. “No. Different scent. Human.”Human? Humans didn’t usually mess with wolves. Too scared.Unless someone paid them.I pulled the nail out. “Call everyone to the clearing. Now.”Thirty-seven people gathered in ten minutes. That alone told me they trusted me.I held up the rabbit. “Someone in this pack wants us g

The first arrow flew before Marcus finished speaking.It wasn’t from us. It was from the trees.Two of his enforcers dropped before they even knew what hit them.“Ambush!” someone shouted.Marcus’s army scrambled, but they were already behind. Blackwood Pack didn’t wait for permission to fight.---*0:00 – The First Wave*I didn’t give the order to attack. I didn’t need to.My people had been waiting for this moment since the day they joined. For years, they were hunted, rejected, thrown away. Now they had a pack to fight for.Rian led the front line. He wasn’t the strongest, but he was the fastest. He took down two enforcers before his blade even got nicked.Kael moved like a storm. No words, no hesitation. He cut through Marcus’s elite guard like they were training dummies.Kade was on the other flank, keeping the line steady. He wasn’t smiling anymore. He was focused. Dangerous. The Alpha I remembered, but better.I stayed in the center with the healers and th
