ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 147: Wedding Dream
LOGANThe wedding procession was everything Ashley had dreamt of, I knew that because she’d gone off about her dream wedding countless times since we were teenagers.I was thrilled that she was finally getting what she deserved, especially since I was the reason she hadn't gotten it all these years. It made my heart absolutely full to know that she was experiencing a fraction of the immense happiness she effortlessly brought me.A veil was covering her stunning face as she repeated the wedding vows after the elder and my heart leaped for joy.When she was done, I wiped a tear away from my left eye and she chuckled at how emotional she made me before I started to repeat the vows after the elder as well. He joined our hands and the moonstone between us glowed to seal our matrimonial vows.“Do you both vow to be each other’s fated spouses in this life and every life after?” the elder asked the last question.“I do,” we chorused together, sounding giddy as hell.“You may kiss your Luna,”
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 148: Opening Up
SCARLETTI felt a presence overshadowing me, so heavily that it was impossible to ignore it and enjoy my sleep.When my wolf didn't stop bugging me to open my eyes, I finally hissed and opened them, only to be startled by the glinting eyes in the dark that were above me. Fear gripped me and I felt my entire body grow cold as I clutched my duvet like it could save me.A second later, the moon shone into my room, and the face of the person hovering above me was revealed.Logan.On instinct, I opened my mouth to scream but his huge palm pressed down on my lips and muffled the sound such that I could barely hear it. And if it was barely audible to me, no one in the house could hear and come to my aid.My entire body started to tremble on realizing that I was at Logan’s mercy, and from experience, that was the worst possible place I could be stuck in. Frantic at the thought of what he intended to do with me, I started to kick my feet and wiggle my body to get away from him but he easily ke

SCARLETTWhen I woke up this morning, there was coffee and a note resting on Alex’s beside table.From the note I gathered that he had a work trip so he left before I woke up and so he’d left me some coffee to start the day. I scribbled a short thank you note on the back of the paper and emptied my coffee before leaving his room.I purposely got ready in a hurry so that I wouldn’t have to go to work with Logan. After the way he ambushed me last night, I didn't care if the curse burnt him alive on his way to work. I’d much rather not see him until the murderous rage boiling within me calmed, else I’d kill him on behalf of the curse.So, to calm my rage, I planned to focus on the good that came out of last night; spending time with Alex and getting to know the real him, the one underneath that rigid and aggressive facade.That revelation didn’t miraculously make his wrongdoings vanish into thin air, but it chipped away some of the hostile feelings I’d been holding against him because I
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 150: Don’t Ever Leave Me
LOGANI failed, woefully.I had one goal that night, to barge into Scarlett’s room and destroy the bond once and for all. I’d gone to great lengths for a solution to the growing bond between us because of one foolish impulsive decision of feeding on her.And I knew what was at stake; losing Ashley, yet I’d still screwed things up.The moment Scarlett’s fearful eyes met mine when she woke up, I already started to rethink my plan because of how shaken her distress made me. But I didn't move away because I remembered that I was doing it for Ashley.However, I hesitated for a moment because my wolf was clawing at my insides when I produced my fangs and the fear in her eyes worsened. That hesitation gave her an opening to fight back and she sunk her fangs into my skin, completely disorienting me as she ran out.Immediately, I dropped to my knees and bit down on my lower lip harshly to keep myself from groaning loudly in pain. I have a higher pain threshold than an alpha werewolf so her bit
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 151: I am fucked
LOGANDespite having just asked her not to leave me, that's exactly what she was doing.I frowned as she wiggled out of my grasp, and the lack of closeness made me feel a dull emptiness in my chest, but I was relieved that the excruciating pain from before hadn't returned as I loosened my arms around her and let her move off my body.“Stop speaking, you're not well and you don't know what you're saying,” she said with an expressionless look as she sat beside me on the bed.The lack of emotion in her voice didn't sway me from what she was trying to hide, that she was actually worried about me. I knew that because of how she’d run towards me even when everyone warned her not to come anywhere near me.“I can't keep looking at those, they bother me,” she rolled her eyes at the chains that still restrained my legs to the bed, proving that I was right to believe that she was worried about me.As she took them off, I watched her closely with her hair falling over her face and framing it so b
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 152: Move in with me
LOGANA week of pursuing redemption was draining but worthwhile.Ashley was barely talking to me so every blessed day I had to think of new thoughtful gestures to apologize for the argument we had. On the other hand, I was on my best behavior at work and at home to show Scarlett that I was capable of change and my apology was real.I was yet to reap the fruits of both actions, but I held out hope that Ashley would be the first to acknowledge my sincerity from how much effort I’d put into reminding her of why I’d chosen her and only her.She’d just replied to my text as I was heading out of work after staying back to work on a contract till nighttime and I was pleased by the slight change in her tone, it meant that her resolve was weakening slowly and things would soon return to normal between us.Coupled with my excitement about that little progress, the full moon sitting beautifully in the sky put my wolf in a great mood all through the ride home.Once I got home and stepped out of t
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 153: The attack
SCARLETTI knew that look. I was most likely mirroring too.“I need you, right now,” Blake squeezed my bare thigh under the table while undressing me with his mesmerizing eyes.We’d only just arrived at the beach resort and settled in our seats for dinner, but from the way we’d been exchanging sensual looks in the car until we got here, it was evident that food was the last thing on our minds.“I need you more, baby,” I breathed the words, and my breath caught in my throat right after when his fingers rode higher up my thighs.Our anticipation was justified because we’d barely spent more than a couple of minutes in person in the past two weeks because he was always busy. We’d even worsened things by doing a disturbing amount of sexting in that time.Now, I knew that all the things we’d said we were dying to do to each other was all that was running through both our minds as we locked our heated gazes.“Fuck,” he hissed when his hand grazed my inner thigh and I let out a subtle moan.“
ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS 154: Worried Blake
SCARLETTMy eyes felt like they were carrying the weight of the world as I forced them open.The first thing I saw was Blake’s back turned to me while he ran a hand through his already ruffled hair over and over again like he’d reached his limit with frustration.“You’ve had three damn hours to wake her up! Three! And yet, you can’t find a single pulse in her body despite all the countless spells you've chanted,” he hissed, addressing a lady whose face was blocked by his huge frame.“She’ll wake up soon, the spells take a while to set in, but I’m sure she's alive, I could feel her wolf while I checked for a pulse earlier,” she sounded just as frustrated while explaining things to him.“You’ve said those same words over and over, but she's still passed out cold, how the hell am I supposed to believe a word that leaves your lips?” his voice deepened and his anger was evident in every word.“This process takes patience, it involves waking someone who lost all consciousness and gone into

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. I immediat

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
