บททั้งหมดของ Bred For The Alpha Daddies: บทที่ 131 - บทที่ 140

+ MedoraI woke up wrapped in a cocoon of solid, radiating heat. I kept my eyes closed for a long minute. I just breathed in the crisp scent of pine and sharp cologne. I felt safe.The stupid velvet pillow wall was gone. The giant barricade I built down the middle of the mattress didn't exist anymore. The kings dragged all the cushions away while I slept.I lay right in the center of the huge bed. Kaz had his large arm draped securely over my waist. His broad, bare chest pressed warm against my back. His steady heartbeat thumped a calm rhythm against my spine. Kai sat near the foot of the bed. He rested his scarred hand gently over my covered ankle. Kenzo and Kol slept on the opposite side of the mattress.They refused to leave the bed. They skipped their morning patrol meetings. They ignored the border reports to stay right here with me.The suffocating panic from yesterday vanished. I wasn't a prisoner locked in a stone cage. I was the most precious thing in the universe. I belonged

+ MedoraKenzo caught me before I could fall. His thick arms scooped me right up off the path. He didn't waste a single second asking what went wrong. He just spun around and sprinted toward the doors.I squeezed my eyes shut. I grabbed the collar of his black shirt.The pain in my side vanished. A brand new nightmare took its place.My own skull felt like a crowded, tiny room. Dozens of frantic, overlapping voices screamed in my ears. Snarls. Whimpers. Desperate scratching."Hold on," Kenzo rumbled. His chest heaved as he took the grand staircase two steps at a time. "I've got you."He kicked the bedroom door open. He laid me down on the giant mattress.Kaz and Kai rushed in right behind us. They smelled the pure panic pouring out of my skin. Kaz didn't ask questions. He just barked a loud order for the pack doctor.Dr. Thorne ran into the master suite a minute later. His leather bag smacked against his leg. He took one look at me thrashing on the pillows and pointed a wrinkled finge

+ Medora"Send her away," Kaz barked.He didn't even blink. He didn't want to hear another word about the Fletchling family."If she refuses to leave the gates, throw her off the mountain," Kaz ordered flatly.I stood up from the plush rocking chair. My boots sank into the soft white rug of the nursery."Wait," I said.Kaz stopped. He turned to look at me. The feral rage in his amber eyes softened just a fraction. He hated the idea of that toxic woman breathing the same air as me. He wanted to shield me from every single ugly thing in the world."Let's go see what she has to say," I told him.Kol stepped forward. He pushed his wire glasses up his nose. He looked right at my round stomach."You're pregnant, Medora," Kol warned me. His voice sounded tight with raw panic. "That woman is toxic. She abused you for years. It isn't safe."I smiled at him. I placed my hand on my belly. The tiny pup fluttered against my palm, responding to my touch."I'll be fine," I said softly. "You guys are

+ MedoraMy stepmother froze. Her hand hung in the empty air right above her shoulder.She stared at my face. She saw the bright red handprint forming on my cheek. She saw the tiny drop of blood leaking from the corner of my mouth. But most importantly, she saw my smile.She finally realized her mistake.I was not the quiet, terrified little girl from the Fletchling estate anymore. I did not shrink into the shadows. I did not drop my eyes to the floor and apologize for existing. I stood tall. I laughed in her face.Pure terror washed the anger right out of her eyes.She took a fast step backward. Her expensive leather shoe caught on a rough cobblestone. She stumbled. She waved her arms in a frantic circle to keep her balance. She scrambled backward until her spine hit the thick, cold iron bars of the front gate.The sound of metal scraping against leather echoed through the courtyard.Schwing.Four silver swords slid out of their dark scabbards in perfect, lethal unison.The Ironholt

+ MedoraKaz asked the question, and the whole world went quiet.I stared at the woman sitting in the mud. Her green velvet dress soaked up the dirty water. Her blonde hair stuck to her sweaty, pale face. She looked up at me with wide, terrified eyes. She waited for me to show mercy. She expected me to act like the weak, quiet girl she trained me to be.But that girl died a long time ago."She deserves to be sold," I said. My voice rang clear across the quiet courtyard. "You can do whatever you want with her, Kaz."Kaz let out a low, dark chuckle. The sound promised absolute violence."But first," I continued, stepping closer to the trembling woman. "I have a message for Richard."My stepmother flinched.I looked at the lead guard standing by the iron gates."Send a messenger to the western valley tonight," I announced. I made sure my voice echoed off the tall stone walls so everyone could hear. "Tell Richard Fletchling his land claim is gone. As the Luna of Ironholt, I officially str
