All Chapters of Claimed By The Storm Brothers: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

ThorneThe cold night air stung my skin, but it was nothing compared to the tension hanging over the clearing. My attention remained fixed on Lucian, who lay motionless on the ground. His breathing was so faint that I had to watch his chest closely to make sure he was still alive.I kept trying to help him, forcing myself to remain calm even as the seconds slipped away.Nothing was working.His skin had turned deathly pale, and the veins beneath his arms had taken on a disturbing, reddish hue. Whatever we’d poured down his throat wasn’t helping as quickly as it should. Worse, I still couldn’t be certain we’d given him the correct antidote.“Why isn’t he waking up?”Alpha Darius’s voice rang through the clearing, sharp with anger.I looked up as he approached. The moonlight revealed the fury twisting his features, but beneath it, I caught something else. Panic. For once, the Alpha’s usual composure had deserted him. His gaze darted between me and his son as if he couldn’t decide which

ThorneThe forest had fallen silent, with only Eira’s breathing breaking the stillness. She lay limp in my arms, her head resting heavily against my shoulder. Her hands hung loosely at her sides, and there wasn’t a trace of the resistance she’d shown earlier.I adjusted my hold on her and continued toward the house.“She’s completely out,” Kael remarked from behind me.Soren moved closer. “Let me carry her.”“I’ve got her.”I didn’t stop or give either of them a chance to argue. Thankfully, neither tried. They followed a few steps behind as I made my way back, my attention fixed on the path ahead and the gentle movement of Eira’s chest.When we reached the house, I pushed the door open with my shoulder and headed straight for her bedroom.I carefully lowered her onto the bed, then stepped away almost immediately, putting as much distance between us as the small room allowed.Kael appeared in the doorway.“Thorne…”“I said I’ve got it.”He studied me for a moment, perhaps considering w

ThorneI didn’t stop to ask what had happened. I turned and raced down the hallway toward Eira’s room, my heart pounding as dread tightened its grip on me. Soren and Kael followed close behind.I pushed the door open so forcefully that it slammed against the wall.The room was empty.Disappointment struck me hard. The bed was neatly made, as though Eira hadn’t slept there at all. I searched the room, looking for any indication of where she might have gone, but there was nothing. Her scent lingered faintly in the air, yet it offered no direction to follow.“She’s not here,” Soren muttered, his voice tense.He moved around the room, checking the closet before pulling aside the curtains. Kael searched the other side, lifting the bedspread and looking underneath.“Eira!” I shouted, my voice rough with desperation.There was no answer.“Eira!” I called again, louder this time.Fear was beginning to overwhelm me, but I forced myself to keep searching. I checked the bathroom, hoping she migh

KaelThe sun had barely risen when we returned to the crime scene. The events of the previous night still weighed heavily on us, and the sight before us did nothing to ease the tension. What had once been a peaceful stretch of forest had become a place of horror over the past few weeks.Red and yellow police tape surrounded the area, blocking off the ground while investigators and coroners moved around with grim expressions. Their faces revealed little, but the atmosphere spoke volumes.The forest was unusually quiet, disturbed only by the occasional murmur of conversation. Despite the early hour, there was something oppressive about the air.Being the Alpha’s sons had its advantages. We pushed past the barriers without bothering to explain ourselves, ignoring the disapproving looks from the people working there.Soren led the way, his expression hard and unreadable. Thorne followed close behind him, his lips pressed into a tight line. I tried to keep my thoughts organized, but the fa

LUCIANThe scream had led us straight into a scene from hell.Dozens of shriveled bodies littered the ground, their eyes missing and limbs torn away. Some were so badly mutilated that entire pieces of them seemed to have vanished.“That’s disgusting,” Ethan muttered, looking like he was struggling to keep his stomach settled.“Did anyone see Eira?” Thorne demanded, his voice strained with worry.No one answered. There was nothing but the bodies and the eerie silence hanging over the forest.Then the pain struck again.It tore through my chest with such force that I stumbled, clutching my ribs as it spread into my arms and legs. I fought to remain standing, barely managing to steady myself. The others were clearly feeling it too, but whatever was happening seemed to be hitting me harder than the rest.And somehow, I knew it had something to do with Eira.I couldn’t explain it, but the certainty settled deep in my bones.Straightening with difficulty, I wiped the sweat from my forehead.
