Novel & Cerita My Repentant Brothers

I stood on the street corner for what felt like hours, finally gathering enough courage to attempt mind-linking with my brothers. Unsurprisingly, they had blocked my mental connection long ago. With a sigh, I pulled out my phone and called my Alpha brother, Ryker. Twenty years as siblings should count for something. No matter how ugly things had become between us, we deserved one final meal together. He disconnected my calls repeatedly before finally shutting his phone off completely. Swallowing my pride, I dialed my Beta brother, Axel. This time, after an eternity of ringing, he deigned to answer, like he was granting me some grand favor.

At the full-moon celebration for Leah Rosen, the family's adopted daughter, my three brothers chained me to the judgment pillar in the pack square. My fiancé, Kyle Mercer, drew a silver blade and plunged it into my chest himself, collecting a smal l cup of heart's blood to feed the moon moth larva Leah had bought on the black market. The larva, which had been stiff and lifeless, drank its fill of blood, and its translucent wings began to flutter. "It's alive. You win again, Leah." Leah threw herself into his arms, "You lost, Kyle. "I'll take Leah into town first. I've already sent someone to brew a clotting draught. I'll be right back." I tried to call out to him, but my eldest brother D

"And you? You're only an adopted child whom we've sheltered all these years as a replacement. It's time you realized your place and stopped whining like a little child." Ivy slowly shook her head. Those words kept spinning around in her mind, striking her consciousness until she felt as though her entire world had truly collapsed. For fourteen years, she had believed that they were real brothers who loved her unconditionally. It turned out that her status was nothing more than a replacement for a shadow. Amid her sobs, Sarah lifted her head from within Redy's embrace, hiding a cunning smile on her lips as she watched Ivy's defenses crumble completely before her three older brothers.

They are family and should stick to that. “I missed you buddy.” He whispered patting Ric’s back a little and the shocked Ric regained his senses and hugged back Lucas as tears dripped down his eyes. “I missed you too.” He thought Lucas would beat him to death after seeing him but his reaction is out of the box and this proved their brotherhood. He now regrets everything he had done in the past and understood the value of his family and the meaning of brother’s bond. How cruel of him to betray their friendship? ‘Forgive me Luc.’

Adrian clenched his teeth, “what brother’s code?” “The brother’s code you know, the brother’s code that we have been abiding to for a long time now, are you still going to pretend now? You don’t remember? Fine, the code which states that any one of us who gets a girl can share with us all and it won’t be a problem, do you remember now?” Kevin asked.

"You have completely lost your mind, Mr. Stone. I'm not having this conversation with you." I turned to leave, but Asher’s hand shot out, grabbing my wrist. He hauled me against him so fast I gasped, my chest colliding with his hard frame. His other hand slid to my waist, anchoring me there. He didn't even seem afraid that Luke or his parents might walk out and see us. "Let go of me, Mr. Stone," I whispered, my eyes darting toward the hall. "Asher," he corrected in a low, commanding tone. "I'm not a corporate puppet like my brother. Call me Asher."

I choked out, trying hard to steady my shaky voice, “I told you if you didn’t stop, that’d be the end of us. I wasn’t lyin’. Elis, it’s over.” “No! Damian Please! It can’t be over, it can’t!” “Ain’t nothin’ I can do,” I said firmly. “You betrayed me when I needed you most. Walk the path you chose, lil bro.” “I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Please, just give me a chance to redeem myself. To prove my loyalty again.” “I’m sorry too,” I said, shaking my head slowly. “Once bitten, twice shy. We can’t ever go back to what we were. And remember what Evelyn said? She said we half-brothers.”

She laughed, looking gleeful. I figured it was a good thing they'd confessed. "And what if I say no?" Jonah's expression fell, and he immediately frowned. "Then don't blame me for what happens next. I have a thousand ways to drag your name through the dirt." My sweet little brother I'd raised had grown into a venomous and cruel stranger. The meeting ended on bad terms.

He was a monster, he always had been. “NO!” It must’ve been the first time one of his brothers had denied him, because everything suddenly went dead silent. Nobody even breathed loud, except for my soft, broken whimpers. I started to calm down slightly when I saw both brothers standing with their backs to me, shielding me from Nikon’s view. “Brother, step away,” Nikon said again, his voice harsher this time. “Did you not hear me, ‘brother’?” Easton repeated the word with sharp sarcasm.

He’d seen the fire in Lia’s eyes at the funeral, seen how grief had stripped her of softness and turned her into something sharper. The brothers sat there, two broken men who had once ruled like giants, now reduced to shadows of themselves. And for the first time, they didn’t look like enemies. They just looked… tired. The bartender called the last round. Neither moved. Neither drank. And when Ken finally stood, his voice was quiet. “We’ll never be brothers again, Ruben. But maybe we don’t have to be enemies either.” Ruben didn’t answer. He only watched as Ken left, the smoke curling around him like the remnants of a war that refused to die.
