All Chapters of Bite Me Harder, Alpha: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

I sit at the head of the oak table, the hearth fire fading. Dinner’s scent still lingers as the meeting begins. Sienna sits to my right, her hand inches from mine; Rowena stands silent by the window. Opposite us, Thorne, Garrick, and two other elders watch, their faces etched by years of hard decisions.The silence feels dangerous.Thorne clears his throat first, his deep voice cutting through the room. “We need to address what happened at dinner. Sienna’s… proposal.”Sienna straightens beside me. I can feel the tension rolling off her through our bond.“I only suggested we help other packs,” she says, her voice steady but edged. “The protests in Europe are escalating. If we do nothing, it will reach us eventually. This is our fight too.”Thorne leans forward, his old eyes narrowing. “Your fight? Or another distraction?”I see Sienna flinch.“Laura is dying,” Thorne continues, not unkindly but firmly. “Your grandmother’s condition is weighing on you. We all understand grief. But rushing

We race through the forest like shadows given form. My paws slam against the earth, muscles burning as I push harder. Sienna runs at my flank, her lighter wolf form keeping pace with fierce determination. Ryker’s roar still echoes in my ears — raw, furious, and filled with warning.Hold on, I send through the pack link. We’re coming.The trees blur past us. The lake falls behind. We crest a ridge and plunge into denser woods near the eastern border. The scent of blood hits me first — sharp, metallic, and mixed with unfamiliar vampire rot.I snarl.We burst into a small clearing and the scene stops me cold.Ryker is fighting for his life.Three vampires circle him, moving with unnatural speed. Ryker’s

I burst through the hallway just as chaos explodes in the nursery.Cora tries to stop me, grabbing my arm. “Kieran, wait—!”I shrug her off without slowing down. My mate is in there.The scene hits me like a silver blade to the chest.Sienna has Delphine pinned against the wall, teeth sunk deep into the vampire’s neck. Golden light pulses violently from the bite. Delphine isn’t moving much anymore — just twitching, choking on her own blood. Dark crimson spills down her chin and chest, staining her elegant gown.Darius screams in pure rage. “You bitch!”He lunges toward Sienna, claws extended.I move faster than thought. I slam into him with my full weight, driving him back and pinning him against the opposite wall. My forearm presses hard against his throat.“You will not touch her,” I snarl, voice distorted by the partial shift.Darius’s red eyes burn with fury, but he stops fighting when he sees Delphine’s condition. “Let me go to her!”Sienna finally pulls back from the bite. Blood

I wake to the steady thrum of Kieran’s heartbeat beneath my cheek and the faint metallic tang of blood still lingering on my tongue. Morning light filters through the heavy curtains of our bedroom, casting golden stripes across the rumpled sheets. My body aches in the best way—neck and shoulder throbbing from his claiming bites, thighs sore from how desperately we came together after the fight. The blood sharing last night changed something between us. It feels deeper. More primal.Kieran’s arm tightens around my waist even in sleep, pulling me closer against his warm, naked chest. I trace the fresh bite mark I left on his shoulder. The skin has already healed into a silvery scar, but the bond hums with satisfaction.He stirs, golden eyes cracking open. “Morning, little wolf,” he murmurs, voice rough with sleep and lingering hunger. His fingers skim down my spine, possessive. “How do you feel?”“Like I survived a war and got claimed by my mate in the same night,” I whisper, pressing a

The monitors scream like living things.I shove past Elara, heart hammering against my ribs as Laura’s frail body jerks on the bed. Her eyes are wide but unfocused, lips moving without sound. The oxygen mask fogs with each shallow, desperate breath.“Grandma!” I grab her hand. It feels too cold, too light. “Stay with me. Please.”Kieran is right behind me, his solid presence a wall at my back. Through the mate bond I feel his fury and fear twisting with mine. “Elara, what’s happening?”“She’s crashing,” Elara snaps, already injecting something into the IV line. “Heart rhythm is completely unstable. The decline—it’s accelerating faster than anything I’ve seen.”I press my forehead to Laura’s. “You can’t leave me yet. Callum needs you. I need you. I still have so many questions about Mom, about everything…”Her fingers twitch weakly in mine. For one heartbeat her eyes clear and find my face. “My brave girl,” she rasps, voice barely audible over the alarms. “Don’t… chase death like she d
