ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 126: Bottomless pit
SCARLETTIf my first day was hell, the four days that followed placed me in the bottomless pit.Every was the same. No excitement. No surprises. Just the same boring tasks everyday and having to listen to Logan whine about things that made me imagine killing him in a thousand and one ways.But it was Friday now and I didn’t have to be around all the maddening things that made me hate my new job from 5pm today until another cursed Monday morning. I was staring idly at the wall clock hit 4:37 pm when Ashley walked out of Logan’s office adjusting her skirt and smiling to herself.They did it pretty often. Shutting the doors and fucking each other’s brains out. And I made a conscious effort to block my wolf’s hearing so I wouldn’t pick up anything that would scar my memory.“You always look bored out of your mind sitting behind that desk,” Ashley spoke, sympathy dancing in her eyes as she approached me.I looked bored, but really, I was on the verge of running mad.“I can’t complain,” oh,

SCARLETT“Help!” I screamed without thinking, my entire body shaking violently as he approached me.“You’re a screamer?” he unbuttoned his shirt as he approached me, “good thing those are my favorite type of women to fuck.”What sort of a sick bastard says that to a woman he’s trying to take advantage of? I wondered, my hands turning clammy with sweat as I continued to take restricting steps back.“Help! Please!” I screamed again, tears stinging the corners of my eyes when my back hit the wall and I realized I was trapped.Doomed, I prayed that a miracle would happen before he could have his way with me.I wasn’t so lucky unfortunately. Xavier got to me, smiling from ear to ear as he practically undressed me using his lust filled eyes.While I knew that I should be fighting him off as hard as I could instead of just watching him with fear in my eyes, my nerves were dead and no part of my body was responsive no matter how badly I wished they would.He seemed to know that I was too shoc
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 128: Girls’ Day Out
SCARLETT11:34am, shit.I was supposed to meet up with Ashley for the spa girls date by 11 but I overslept because I and Blake spent the entire night by the pool watching old 2000 rom-coms and stargazing. I didn’t regret it but I hated being tardy to appointments of any kind so I threw on the first dress I saw when I came out of the shower and hurried downstairs.I ordered an Uber before I got into the shower and he was three minutes away so I stood outside the house waiting.“You look good in white,” a familiar voice from behind startled me and I prayed to the gods that it wasn’t who I suspected.His scent confirmed that my prayers were useless even before he came into view. I frowned instead of responding to his compliment which was obviously just a conversation starter.“If you won’t accept the compliment at least accept my help,” Alex blocked my view of the gate completely, pissing me off.“For the millionth time—not that you take me seriously—leave me the fuck alone,” I warned ha

LOGANMy antsy fiancée scooted closer to me until our thighs were pressed against each other’s, then she looked around the room cautiously, rubbing her hands together like a brainstorming villain.“We should leave now, before she says our star signs aren’t compatible and we’ll face eternal doom if you get married to me instead of your mate,” Ashley whispered doubtfully, she’d been doing so for the past ten minutes.We were seated on a straw mat, but that was the only thing that seemed ancient about the living room we were in. The rest of it was furnished with high quality modern furniture and ornaments, so it didn’t look like the home of a sorcerer.“I drove seven hours to get here because the jet makes you nauseous on your period, if you’re not going to go through with this for yourself, do it for me and my aching arms that drove all evening,” I tried to reason with her.“I’ll massage them in the hotel roo—”“Ashley, this sorcerer came highly recommended by Alphas in high places that

SCARLETT“I get it, I fucked up, but I corrected it hours ago so why’re you still on my case?!” I clutched the laptop at my desk like it would keep the murderous rage in me from lashing out at Logan.“Because the next time you forward confidential information like that, it might be to a competitor, not the entire security team that’s bound from sharing that because of NDAs!” he yelled back, his suit tightening around his biceps as he folded his arms.“Well, I’m a makeup artist and not a fucking trained secretary so it’s your fault I’m incompetent in this position since you forced it on me!” I slammed the laptop shut, my last nerve faltering.“This shit is common sense, Scarlett and that’s a petty excuse for someone who attended college,” he hissed, “except you were too busy spreading your legs to learn a single thing.”I growled under my breath and got to my feet, banging my fists on the table since I couldn’t use them to punch a hole through his head for blatantly insulting me.“Get

SCARLETTAshley could run for President and I’d be her campaign manager, that’s how proud I was of how quickly she handled Stephanie’s abuse case.Within twenty four hours she’d terminated the manager’s contract, ordered the legal team to sue him for workplace assault, and granted Stephanie a paid leave where she would have bi-weekly appointments with a therapist the company paid for.She was the woman of the hour.After how she handled things, I was sincerely considering making intentional efforts to be friends with her, especially since I knew that the people she called ‘friends’ were just a jealous bunch.Even now, as we walked towards the board room for a briefing concerning a new partnership, I couldn’t stop singing her praises.“Stephanie’s mom keeps begging for your mailbox address, she wants to send you a handmade knitted sweater to show her appreciation and frankly I think you deserve a truckload of knitted sweaters,” I whispered as we neared the boardroom.“You’re adorable,

SCARLETTIf Blake’s face was the last thing I saw before I dropped dead, it’d be more fulfilling than eternal peace.He was unbelievably beautiful, crafted from something ethereal and rare.“Are you going to keep staring at me subtly through that mirror or do I get your stamp of approval on these shades?” Blake asks, breaking into a smile that steals the air right out of my lungs.I stutter at first when I try to speak, then I take a deep breath to gather myself.“There’s absolutely nothing you don’t look great in and that’s unfair,” I whine instead of simply telling him those shades make him look like a vogue model, he doesn’t get a compliment after making me lose my ability to breathe.He laughed, heartily before taking my hand and pulling me out of the store, making my skin tingle until we walked into a clothing store that was littered with designer dresses and shoes alike. The price tags on them made me think my brain was jumbling up the numbers.Attendants lined up and chorused t

SCARLETTThe initial shock that I felt when his lips claimed mine faded and a desire that seemed capable of swallowing me whole took its place.My fingers found their way into his wet hair, pulling on it as I pushed my tongue into his mouth desperately. He let out an appreciative moan and intertwined his tongue with mine, taking the lead as he lifted me off the floor and threw my legs around his waist.He seemed to have a thing for carrying me while he kissed me, and I fucking loved it, especially because it eliminated every iota of space between us and allowed us to be pressed against each other.Hard chest against pillowy boobs, the perfect setup.“Fuck, you feel so good,” he pulled my bottom lip with his teeth, causing a whimper to leave my lips, “all of you.”That was followed by his hands cupping my ass and an expressive moan from him that signaled utmost satisfaction. Next thing I knew, he was carrying me up the stairs, but we didn’t break away from the kiss for even a second.W

ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS EPILOGUE
SCARLETT “How many minutes apart are your contractions?” “Can you feel the pups crowning already?” “Should I get the midwives?” My husbands circled around me like vultures readying their prey, asking me a million and one questions like I was not as clueless about childbirth as they were. They’d read a library worth of childbirth and parenting books from the moment I found out I was pregnant and yet they were as nervous as a completely ignorant parent would be. “Stop hovering over her, please,” Hyacinth sighed and rolled her eyes as she walked into the birthing room, “the birthing process will begin any moment and I’ll need you all to either be quiet and or absent so I can get to work.” They all murmured amongst each other before finally falling quiet. “I’m going to give you a mild anesthetic so you don’t feel a thing and sleep through it, alright?” she turned to me with a kind smile and I nodded. I felt nerves already wrecking my body upon hearing that, I was reminded of the c

LOGANThree long yet amazing months went by and the D-day finally arrived. I couldn’t believe that I was about to be married to Scarlett and it seemed that neither Blake nor Alex could believe it seeing how nervous they were while getting dressed for the ceremony. We’d watched her become the best version of herself in the last three months and judging from all the power and potential she radiated, even three Vaughn men might not be enough of a match for her. Still, I was beyond elated to see what a marriage as unique as ours had in store for us in the coming years. And for the rest of our lives. “I still can’t figure this shit out!” Blake whined as he wrongly knotted his tie for the hundredth time and Alex and I laughed at him. “If you’re too nervous to knot your tie, maybe you should just sit out the wedding ceremony,” Alex teased him. “Yeah, it’s a small wedding anyways. We’ll just add your name to the marriage certificate and crop you into the pictures for the wedding album,” I

SCARLETTWe did it? “Yeah, we fucking did it,” Logan’s excited response made me realize that I’d asked that question out loud instead of in my head as I’d assumed. “And that’s only because you had the balls to put yourself on the line when we weren’t willing to take that risk,” Alex added, flipping a pancake effortlessly with a slight tilt of the pan. Inwardly, I rolled my eyes at his stellar skills, wondering how he was able to pull that off when I couldn’t even do it while carefully using a frying spoon. “I’m going to take a wild guess and say that you’re no longer focused on our victory over the Shahato and you’re now hating on everyone that can make a proper pancake unlike you,” Blake said through a chuckle. I narrowed my eyes at him, picking a grape off my plate and throwing it at his head for teasing me. “Ow!” he exclaimed when it hit his forehead. “Serves you right,” I grinned before taking a generous bite of my sandwich. That led to back and forth banter, and as much a

SCARLETTAgain, they’d come to my rescue at the perfect moment.Unlike the last time, I refused to lose faith in them, so seeing them was more than an answered prayer, it was the confirmation of a truth I’d been steadfastly holding unto.I felt relief course through my entire body as the army pounced on the Shahato warriors, shifting to their wolf form and ripping our enemies apart before they had the chance to rejoice over my burnt corpse.Suddenly, the regret I felt when I was thrown into the portal that brought me here washed away and I was pleased with myself for following through with the baiting plan that brought us this far. I had a feeling that after this battle, we’d finally know peace and harmony instead of the chaos and despair we’d had to endure for months now.I was so lost in imagining a time of calm and quiet that I even forgot that fire was slowly creeping towards me as the altar behind me burnt away. It was when I smelt thick fumes suffocating me that I looked behind

LOGANI still felt shitty and stupid for how immature I’d acted when Scarlett disappeared behind that godforsaken portal.Blake didn’t deserve to be choked so heartlessly when all he did was keep me from breaking my foot to pieces—because believe me, that was my intention when I started kicking that rock. Yet, he’d stopped me from hurting myself foolishly and I repaid him like an absolute asshole.I knew I’d apologized, but it didn’t seem enough so I made a mental note in the back of my mind to make it up to him somehow after we rescued Scarlett.“Guys! Over here! Quickly!” Hyacinth called out to me and my brothers and we rushed to where she was bent over on the floor and holding a glass shard.“What did you find? Please give us some good news,” Alex practically begged as he crouched beside her.“Their sorcerer must’ve mistakenly dropped this while closing the portal in a hurry, and now I know exactly where those bastards took her,” she jumped to her feet and Alex followed suit.“Wher

ALEXFan–fucking–tastic!This bloody plan blew up in our faces just like I’d predicted it would. Those cunning bastards just zapped our mate through a portal and I couldn’t feel her through the bond from the moment they disappeared into it.I guessed that neither Blake nor Logan could feel her either because they equally seemed like they were going mad.“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck this!” Logan yelled on the top of his voice while kicking a rock repeatedly until I heard a toe snap and blood started to ooze from his boot.That didn’t stop him though, he kept spitting profanities and angrily kicking the rock until Blake ran towards him and dragged him away from the rock and set him on the floor.“What the hell is wrong with you, Logan? How the hell does that fix shit!?” Blake leaned forward, placing his hands on both knees while screaming right into Logan’s face.Instead od answering, Logan reached out and gripped Blake’s neck and started to twist it with rage burning in his eyes.

SCARLETTThe morning of the full moon had finally arrived, and just like everyone else, I hoped that things went according to plans.None of us could handle any surprises because the chances of the plan going smoothly hinged on us being in complete control. To ensure that nothing went wrong, Hyacinth got a team of sorcerers to cast truth spells on the army in a bid to uncover any hidden spies from the Shahatos.Once we confirmed that every warrior was loyal to us, we finally let them in on the plan for the first time since we’d hatched it.Afterwards, Blake and Alex guided them through morning drills and helped them memorize the parts of the plan they were instrumental to, Logan and I kept Hyacinth company while she and her group of sorcerers did a location spell.Unlike the former location spells they’d casted to locate me when I was captured, this was much more likely to work because she’d used the blood of the prisoners that were recently executed. She assured us that with a team o

SCARLETTOnce again, Hyacinth had to come to our aid.We rushed Alex home and called her to come by the house as soon as possible. After ten minutes that felt like an eternity, she finally arrived and got to work on speeding up his healing. She explained that he invested wolfsbane and that’s why he wasn’t healing even after Blake and Logan cleaned and bandaged his wounds properly as soon as we got home.Hyacinth fed him some potions, but when they didn’t work, she told us that the wolfsbane had been in his system for far too long so she would need a powerful spell to magically detox him of it so his wolf could heal.While she convened with the powers that be on the required spell for such a crucial procedure, I paced the entire room worriedly while saying prayers to the moon goddess and ignoring the words of comfort being thrown my way from Logan and Blake.For some reason, I still felt fractions of the fear and pain I felt when I thought he was going to take his life just to prove a

SCARLETTAn hour passed and I immediately rallied Logan and Blake into the car to go in search of Alex. The longer we went without being able to contact or find him, the more I regretted listening to Logan and Blake instead of my wolf.And now because of my negligence, we were all worried out of our minds for Alex.It was almost nightfall and neither of us could reach or find him still. And believe me, we’d tried everything we could possibly think of. Logan tried to track his phone but his men found it dumped in a roadside bin and had no other means of tracing where he went from there because the traffic cams in that area were all busted.After that dead end, we’d all gone around the city in search of him but we couldn’t pick up his scent talk less of find his car.Normally, we’d have assumed that he was just somewhere blowing off steam and stayed home to wait on him. But ever since the marking ritual, we had a much stronger bond and could feel each other’s emotions and a while ago we
