All Chapters of CLAIMED BY THE FOUR ALPHA BROTHERS: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Daven's POVElder Whitfield requested an unscheduled audience the same morning I'd planned to spend making sure Calla was actually eating something, and I knew before I sat down across from him that whatever he wanted to say wasn't going to be small."Alpha." He inclined his head, formal in a way he rarely bothered with anymore, not since the first year I'd taken the title. "Thank you for making time.""You said it couldn't wait." I sat across from him in my study, forcing my posture into something steady despite the exhaustion still dragging at every part of me. "So say what you came to say.""Last night's events have reached the full council." He folded his hands on the table between us, careful, deliberate. "A kidnapping. A fire. Five men, including yourself, storming a location that appears on no pack map, human or otherwise. That's a difficult thing to keep quiet, Daven, even if you wanted to.""I wasn't trying to keep it quiet. I was trying to get my mate back alive." My voice c

Calla's POVDaven's study filled up slowly that evening, one exhausted arrival after another, and by the time all five of us sat around the same table, I understood we weren't gathering to celebrate surviving last night. We were gathering to count exactly what it had cost us.Knox arrived last, dark circles under his eyes, forearm bandage still visible at the collar of his shirt where the strange wound from the estate had finally been dressed. He caught my eye across the room and managed something close to a smile, tired but genuine, before dropping into the chair beside Soren without another word."I'll start," I said, setting my phone face-up on the table, the suspension email still open on the screen. "Ashgrove suspended me pending a security review. Someone inside the company filed the report anonymously, within an hour of what happened to me. Fast enough that whoever did it either already knew, or found out the second it happened and moved instantly.""That's not the only anonymo

Calix's POVWe sat down to plan next steps like reasonable adults, and it took less than ten minutes for the whole table to collapse into the kind of fight none of us had actually had out loud in three years."We need a unified response before the council meets again." Daven's voice was clipped, exhaustion sharpening every word into something harder than he probably intended. "That means no one moving independently. No solo plays, no side conversations with Ronan, nothing that gives the council one more reason to say we can't function as a family.""I wasn't aware planning included a leash," Calix said, arms crossed, jaw tight from a day that had already cost him a board inquiry and a mark he still hadn't fully explained to anyone. "I've been the one holding this family's finances together while you've been busy defending your title to a room full of elders.""That's rich, coming from the man whose account funded the vehicle that took her." Daven's words landed sharp and deliberate, a

Soren's POVCalix came back around noon, quiet and hollow-eyed, and Knox drifted back into the kitchen an hour after that as if nothing had happened, and I understood immediately that nobody in this house had actually resolved anything. They'd just run out of places to go."You're both here," I said, setting down the chart I'd been pretending to read. "That's something, I guess.""Don't make it a bigger deal than it is." Knox pulled out a chair, not quite meeting my eyes. "I went for a drive. I came back. That's it.""Where'd you drive to?""Nowhere. I just drove." He shrugged, jaw tight. "Turned out there isn't actually anywhere to go when your whole life's tangled up in one house.""And you?" I looked at Calix, who hadn't said a word since walking in."I slept in my car outside Warren's office for two hours, and then I came home because I couldn't think of anywhere else to go." He said it flatly, no self-pity in it, just exhaustion. "Don't ask me if I'm fine. I'm not going to lie to

Calla's POVI packed the bag quietly, no drama in it, just folding clothes into careful stacks while the house argued two rooms away, Daven and Calix's voices rising and falling through the walls in some fresh version of the same fight neither of them had actually finished.Jade sat on the edge of my bed, watching me work, saying nothing for a long while before she finally spoke."You don't have to explain any of this to me," she said. "But I'm guessing you're about to explain it to them, and I want you to know I'll back whatever you decide.""I need real room to breathe." I tucked the collar of another shirt. My fingers twitched, and I forced them still. "Not a show of real estate with a fake house inside, where I can stay hidden for one night and it's all, 'Oh, I hope she's okay!' I need real distance. Long enough so I turn off what's on fire today and find out what I need, instead of what everyone else wants.""That's a healthy way to exist," Jade said. "Scary as hell, but healthy.
