Kieran

~~

As soon as Bruno drove Lucille and me to school and we stepped down, I grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her toward an isolated part of the campus.

She gasped dramatically and asked. "What's wrong? Where are we going?"

I ignored her ranting until we got to the site. After looking around and confirming that no one was there, I turned my gaze to Lucille.

"The night of the mating ceremony. Are you sure you didn't make any mistakes? Anything that could link the wolf-repellent powder back to us?" I asked with folded arms.

Lucille snapped her brows into a frown before whispering in response. "Of course not. I followed your instructions perfectly. When I placed the powder in the drinks of the young males, I made sure they weren't looking. I even got rid of the remaining powder when I was done."

I arched an eyebrow. I wasn't still convinced. "How? How did you get rid of the powder?"

She squinted her eyes in confusion at first but eventually spoke. "I–I flushed it in the toilet

    Finally, we got to Dad's mansion and stepped out. However, we were welcomed by a gathering of Dad and a few old men in front of the mansion. Even Ulmer stood outside, causing me to squint my eyes in suspicion."Lucille, go wait in my room," I uttered bluntly as I was about to move toward the group. However, the girl whispered to me before I could leave. "Why? Do you think they're gathered because of the investigations on the wolf-repellent powder?"My eyes twitched in frustration. I turned back to her and grabbed her close to my chest before whispering into her ears. "Could you stop talking about that in public? I swear, if they find out anything because of you I'll let you take the fall alone."I felt how her body shivered in fear under my hold. But I ignored that and continued. "Now be a good girl and go wait in my room or better yet, just head back to your house. Your presence is becoming way too much for my tolerance."I pulled away from her and smiled satisfactorily when she no

    Dad and the Alpha council members didn't waste any more time and revealed how there had been even more rumors circulating about Jin's interactions with Nimue. The Alpha council members stressed how the rumors could bring down the Silverstein family name and also scolded Nimue for not following their orders by staying away from Jin and finding her mate. At that moment, I actually felt bad for her. Neither of us had yet to admit directly to each other that we were, in fact, mates. Things were way too complicated and I just couldn't accept the girl as my mate. I've been trying to get rid of her for so long... Not get her closer to me. And for the moon's sake, she was supposed to be my step-sister!Anyway, Jin assured the Alpha council that the rumors were nothing more than rumors and that he had no ill intentions toward Nimue. The bastard! He's nothing but a two-faced liar! Wasn't he the same one who admitted in front of those human boys and me that Nimue was his 'girl'? What was tha

    Warning: Mature Content aheadI groaned silently in frustration as I watched Jin leave. As for Scratch, he grunted in annoyance inside my head. "I have a bad feeling about that guy around our mate."I sighed in response. "You think? Whatever, it's her life and her decision."However, Scratch snapped. "No, she's OUR mate and you should quit being a pussy and claim her already before it's too late."I blinked in confusion. Where was this attitude coming from?I chose to ignore him and took the back entrance, heading for my room. Just then, I remembered that Lucille would be waiting for me upstairs and groaned. Maybe I should send the bitch home cause, damn, I need space to clear my head, and Lucille's ranting might just add to my headache. However, nothing would've prepared me for what I saw when I opened the door to my room."Oh, it's just you." Lucille turned her head to me with a smirk as she loosened her grip on the white towel that covered her body. The towel gave a view of her

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Get Her Out Of My Head

    I shook my head in a bid to get Nimue off my mind. This wasn't about her!Meanwhile, Lucille purred like a dog in heat as she arched even further, revealing all her assets. "Come on, Kieran. What's taking so long?" She moaned, not in pleasure, but in frustration. Was this what I, Kieran the magnificent, has been reduced to? No woman I'd been with had ever complained about me being anything other than divine in bed. Knowing Lucille and her big mouth, if I didn't live up to my title in bed, she might gossip about me to her friends and before you know it, the whole school would be aware of this. I drew in a deep breath. Focus Kieran. I opened my eyes and walked up to Lucille, spanking her ass before she could say another word. However, even with the jiggling of her ass and her excited moan, I still didn't feel drawn to fuck this girl. How could I tolerate Lucille as my fake girlfriend if I couldn't even enjoy the one thing that she was useful to me for?Anyway, Lucille looked back,

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   A Spark

    The days passed in school, but yet rumors about Nimue and Jin persisted, putting me at my wit's end. Between that and having to constantly pretend that Lucille was my girlfriend while navigating school life, I was losing it!Ever since our last encounter where she told me bluntly that I should leave her alone, Nimue had avoided me like a plague, both at home and in school. The Alpha council still had their eyes on her and Jin but they still went about in his car, driving to school every morning and heading back home. Worst of all was that Jin seemed to be visiting Dad's mansion more often than necessary and it was starting to get on my nerves, especially since I knew who he was always coming to visit. Anyway, today seemed to go like any other normal day in school. I stepped into the building after Bruno dropped me off, but luckily for me, Lucille hadn't tagged along.My gaze trailed through the classes as I searched for Lucille. I needed to discuss more about the Mating Ceremony a

    Nimue~~The tension in the basement was almost palpable as Brock and his friends inched closer to me. Brock raised his hands, trying to assure me that they didn't mean any harm. But how did he expect me to believe that after he and his friends went behind my back to hurt Nadia simply to get information about me from her?I stood my ground, my gaze on the boys unwavering. "One more step and I promise you I'll dislocate your jaws. Trust me, I'm not bluffing." I warned. Or maybe I was bluffing. Last time, these four had almost disfigured my face with a cup of hot coffee. I couldn't afford to let my guard down around them, even though they were humans. Meanwhile, Nadia, who stood there silently, finally found the courage to speak out. "N– Nimue, it's okay. I'm okay. Let's just go before –"However, I held up my hand and shook my head. "Not now, Nadia."I honestly didn't want to get her more involved than she already was. If she wouldn't fight them because of her need to feed, I'd gla

    I was beyond speechless. I held my breath as Kieran's face got closer to mine. His eyes trailed past my face as if he were searching for something. Suddenly, a fake cough from Nadia seemed to snap him out of his trance and brought me back to my senses. "What… What are you even doing here? I didn't need your help." I snorted, trying my best to divert my gaze away from him after stepping away. However, Kieran's eyes never left me, as he paused while looking at me. I couldn't help getting self-conscious while Luna howled inside me. "Just be grateful for once, Nimue! Look at him helping you out while you're here running circles around him."Woah, where did this attitude come from?Meanwhile, Kieran finally spoke up with a scoff. "Is that your way of saying thank you? By the way, humans? Seriously, what business do you have with them?" His eyes went from me temporarily to Nadia, who scratched her neck awkwardly. But I ignored him and Luna's nagging inside me and held Nadia closer to

    "Mr Ki... Jin, please. We're outside; the Alpha council is still watching us, remember?" I mustered up the strength to say even though my Umbra wolf was pulling me to do something different. Jin smirked, bringing his mouth close to my ears before whispering. "I can't wait to see you transform into a man tonight. Perhaps I should make a video to show you how spectacular the transformation process is. It turns me on every time."I gulped, my face heating up with embarrassment. Was he being serious right now? Eventually, he let go of me and tapped me lightly on the cheeks. "Come on, let's go inside and help you study for that test you were talking about." He gestured towards the entrance of the mansion with his head and proceeded to take the lead. Help me study?"Uh... I don't think that's necessary, Jin. I don't need–" I tried speaking, careful not to annoy him or come off as rude.However, he turned back to me with arched eyebrows. "Well, it's a good thing I didn't ask for your per

    A MONTH LATER.."Ugh, at this point I'm beginning to think the object for breaking the curse is back at RavenWood." I groaned while playing around with my cup of coffee.Sitting across at the other side of the table was Kieran, who wore a black hat that kept his face hidden.He also had a steamy cup of coffee in his hands, merely giving me a nod as he gazed around our surroundings warily. We were back in the city where his pack was located, specifically at an open cafe close to Pure Blood College. Unlike what one might think, we weren't here to make any inquiries about school or anything like that. Nope, we were here to meet up with some old ‘friends’, but the catch was that Kieran and I had to keep ourselves hidden. There was still a chance that the Alpha Council would be after us even though they hadn't made a move since we first escaped the city more than a month ago. Anyway, I stared at Kieran for a while before I rolled my eyes. "Can you relax? I doubt your Dad or those ol

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Hope For a Cure

    Sadly, I was still in my male form, unlike what I'd originally expected. As heartwarming as it was that Kieran was able to hold me close even in my male form, my eyes stung with hot tears. I'm so stupid! Why had I been half expecting the ritual from the witches to somehow rid me of the curse? They clearly stated that the ritual was only meant to gauge the inner workings of the curse so they could come up with a possible solution for removing the curse without stripping me of my Umbra wolf. "I'm still a man, Kieran." I sobbed, clutching his arms tightly for support. Meanwhile, my father walked up to me, placing a hand on my shoulder briefly. But he didn't linger for long and proceeded to meet with the witches. Just then, Kieran snapped at Theodora. "I thought you said this ritual wasn't going to hurt her? Why, then, was she in pain during the process? What voodoo did you use on her?!"Somehow, hearing Kieran defending me so vehemently against the witches felt comforting, but I w

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Consulting The Witches

    After a few minute's drive in Marcel's car, we arrived at an isolated part of the city, which seemed eerily darker than other parts. We stepped down from the car, my father slamming the driver's seat door behind him before he explained. "Most human cities have a certain amount of supernaturals among their populace. This city, in particular, has numerous vampires and witches but only a few small werewolf packs."My eyes shone in surprise as I turned my gaze to my father. I was once again shocked and impressed by the amount of information he could get at a whim. Anyway, Kieran placed himself beside me, grabbing my left hand which was already getting sweaty. He glanced at me, giving me a reassuring smile as if he could feel my anxiety through our mate bond. "I'm with you every step of the way, okay?" He reminded me, caressing my hand affectionately. My heart melted at how much affection he was showing me even though I was currently in my male form. I knew how weird it was for him an

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Never Get Used to it

    Nimue~~Long story short, the dinner wasn't... Exactly awful. But dearie me, it sure was dramatic.There was an awful knot in my stomach that still lingered after Marcel revealed the scar on his eye as an aftermath of my mother's betrayal of him. We didn't even have dinner long before he brought up the plan of meeting up with Theodora and her coven. Sigh... So much for a 'perfect dinner'."This dinner was bound to fail, Nimue," Umbra muttered encouragingly in my mind. "I don't even know why Marcel suggested it. He probably just wanted you to see your mother before going to the witches."Currently, Kieran and my father had taken my Mom to the airport to send her back to Alpha Viktor's territory, leaving me all alone in the house. I felt bad for her, but she knew what she was getting into when she decided to marry that man. I just hoped the Alpha council or the Alpha himself didn't do anything to hurt Mom. If not... I wouldn't mind sticking my claws into his throat.Meanwhile, Luna

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Promise to Protect Her

    I subconsciously glanced at Nimue, noticing the sympathy flashing through her eyes. Sympathy for her father. Everyone had tagged him as a 'crazy rogue' bent on hunting her for years, but he had depth. He had a story and his reasons. And for some reason, I felt bad for him too. Maybe because he still made an effort in trying to protect his daughter. Unlike another 'father,' I knew. Meanwhile, Marcel placed the eye patch back on the ghastly scar, drawing in a deep breath as he stared at nothing in particular. Even Ulmer was dead silent now, looking down at her legs in shame. "Well, this dinner just got awkward fast." Scratch muttered in my head, but I didn't even have the mental strength to hush him as I subconsciously held Nimue's hand from underneath the table, trying to reassure her. She shot me a weak smile before turning her gaze to her mother who still had her head lowered. "Well? Don't you have anything to say, Mom?" She asked with arched eyebrows. Ulmer's lips parted in

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Mark of Betrayal

    "For the last time, I think it looks perfect." I groaned dramatically when Nimue asked me what I thought about the house for the umpteenth time. I was already beginning to regret agreeing to let her and her parents use this house as their venue for a 'family get-together.’It was obvious Ulmer and Marcel were still bitter with each other and I had my bets on everything ending in an argument or worse. Meanwhile, Nimue, who was dressed in a lovely red dress with white floral prints, swerved her head to me while she placed the finishing touches to the dinner table. "Well, sorry if I'm feeling nervous about my parents seeing each other in the same house." She uttered sarcastically before adding. "Are you sure you gave them the right address? It's already five PM."It had been two days since we agreed to see Marcel and Ulmer. Luckily, it was the weekend so I didn't have work today. I felt it necessary to be present since I still didn't trust Marcel. Anyway, I responded to Nimue's ques

    The persistent ringing of my phone caused me to place a pause on my makeout session with Nimue. However, when I brought out my phone and saw the same unknown number that Marcel had used to call me earlier, my mood changed drastically."It's your father... Again." I muttered to Nimue's hearing. Her face darkened instantly as she glanced warily at my phone before turning her gaze to me. "Well? Are you going to answer it or not?"I rolled my eyes discreetly before I picked up the call. "Hello?""Ah, Kieran. I just want to inform you that I've made contact with Ulmer and she's agreed to see me and my daughter." Marcel's deep baritone voice sounded from the other end cheerily. I still found it hard to believe that this was the same man who was involved in kidnapping his own daughter who he hadn't met since she was born. Meanwhile, Nimue's mouth opened in a stunned "O" at her father's words and I had a feeling I knew why. It was probably because her parents, who had a bitter past, were i

    As soon as Marcel dropped the call, I had no choice but to rush to my office and ask to leave my post to go attend to my girlfriend, lying that she was 'sick and alone.'I mean, the alone part was real, but there was only one ‘sickness’ afflicting Nimue and that was her Dual wolf curse.And now there seemed to be hope for removing the curse's side effects. However, when I got home, Nimue and I ended up having sex for the first time in a while. On the kitchen counter, too. We were so unhinged, but it was so damn worth it. I hadn't realized how much pent-up sexual frustration I had until I got a taste of Nimue's glorious body.Anyway, I proceeded to drop the bomb of Marcel's call when we were done, but she didn't take it lightly at first. But then I decided to add the most crucial part of the conversation after telling her about his wish to see both her and her mother."He thinks he might be able to get the witches he works with to find a cure for your curse without stripping you of

  • Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy   Compromise

    Kieran ~~ The day when Nimue and I finally escaped my father's mansion was nothing short of epic. The best part was when I finally put Jin in his place and used his diabolical wolf-repellant drug on him. I chuckled to myself each time I remembered the look on his face when he realized he was wolfless. That should be a worse punishment than death for any werewolf. And it served him right... He'd think twice before shoving his face into me and Nimue's life again. Gosh, I couldn't believe that two-faced snake dared to bargain with my father over NIMUE. Over MY mate. Anyway, escaping the city was the easy part, but settling into a new city on the other side of the country was harder than I thought. I picked this location because I wanted to be as far away from my father and all the annoying pack politics as much as possible. Also, I had a new job opportunity to chase after that would enable me to sustain my living with Nimue. "I would've never imagined ‘Kieran the ma
