The world crumbled beneath my feet. My mother's words echoed and re-echoed in the confines of my mind. It was like a haunting melody of despair, singing mocking tunes, teasing, and announcing to me that this was the part where my life got too awful to handle.

A curse? My life was a consequence of a curse? I couldn't comprehend the gravity of it all.

"What do you mean, a curse?" My voice was a mere whisper when it came out. It was a feeble attempt to grasp the monstrous truth.

My mother's eyes held a lifetime of sorrow as she looked at me. "Your father, when he was young, saved a group of werewolves from a powerful witch who was on a quest for revenge. Those wolves, you see, they were young, just like you, recently awakened but went rogue. They lost control while dealing with the witches who were about the same age as them. Those witches they killed belonged to the coven of this powerful witch.”

What the heck? Witches actually existed? I never thought there was any hint of truth in the

    The burden of the world seemed to press down on me with an unbearable force. A curse, a secret, a transformation - it was too much to comprehend. Umbra's insistent and demanding voice broke through my thoughts. "Go to Jin, Nimue. He's our mate. We need him. We have to. He's our rock. You can't find the mate bond, Nimue. You can not.” The mere thought of facing Jin filled me with dread. How could I reveal my secret to him? The man I was drawn to, the man I yearned for, would he still want me when he knew the truth? Yes, I said it—I was drawn to Jin. Right from the onset, the moment it all started, Jin had always been a constant in my heart. Perhaps, our destinies being entwined was the reason why. Perhaps, not. "But what about the curse?" I whispered to Mom, trying to shake my mind off of Jin, and as much as I hated to admit it… Kieran. "We have to keep it a secret, Mom.” My mother's hand found mine, offering comfort. "Don't worry about that, my dear. I'll handle it. For now

    Jin stood there, eyes boring into me in fascination instead of disgust. I watched him take a deep breath, as if trying to comprehend what he was seeing. "So, it's true," he breathed, the golden glint in his eyes twinkling. I was confused but nodded. I didn't know how to react to his reaction. Was I supposed to be relieved or horrified? He was supposed to be shocked, at least. He had seen me many times as a female. Now, I stood before him as a man, and he was taking it even better than my mother who had been hoping against it but expected it nonetheless. "You indeed have the powerful dual wolf curse. They are the most powerful types of wolves any werewolf could possess. Not only are they strong, but the power of the two wolves combined can wreak havoc. Yet, it's real. Present inside of you.” He recited, making my skin crawl. What was the lecture for? Why did I see a little bit of hungry glint flashing abruptly in Jin’s eyes? Why did he know so much about the dual wolf curse? Well,

    Kieran ~~ I watched as my father walked up to the stage to give a speech after the MC's announcement. I'd heard him quote the same revised speech in previous mating ceremonies, the only difference being a few tweaks here and there. As father spoke on, I scanned my eyes through the faces of all those present and felt a little bad for the young men among them. Unfortunately for them, they'd have to wait till the next mating ceremony to find their mates. Who said getting rid of your annoying step-sister and her gold-digger mother would happen without 'casualties'? After ten grueling minutes, Father finally raised his glass to give a toast. "To love, destiny, and the bonds that unite us." He proclaimed with a cheery smile before drinking from his glass. Just then, a hand gripped my arm tenderly, before an annoying voice whispered into my ears. "So, what now my love?" Lucille purred gingerly. Ugh! 'Love'? Perhaps she'd drank too much that now she'd been rendered brain dead. I

    "Ugh, that guy is trouble." Scratch hissed inside me once Jin was out of sight. I rolled my eyes mentally and physically before replying. "You're telling me." I'd even go a step further and say he wasn't just 'trouble'. Jin Kisaragi was dangerous and it was unfortunate that I was the only person who could see it. Everyone else thought I was paranoid or jealous because of the way I treated him... But I knew. I knew him more than any of them. "So, is this it? Are we just going to continue avoiding our mate?" Scratch suddenly asked, his tone itching with annoyance.I scoffed before replying. "You mean 'step-sister'.""Step-sister? Since when?" Scratch sounded genuinely confused. "Last time I checked, you denied her being your step-sister. So, why can't we j–""It's my life, Scratch!" I couldn't take it anymore and yelled at my wolf. "You're just a spectator. I'll do anything and I mean ANYTHING to avoid this stupid mate bond. I will not let myself get controlled by it."There was a l

A big one, actually. Lucille clung tightly to me like a barnacle to a boat, a dreamy smile on her face. She was fully dressed while I was wearing only a pair of pajama pants. I would be late for school at this rate. “Get your lazy ass up!” I ordered, smacking her ass for better effect. She turned, a frown appearing on her face before she finally opened her eyes. “Oh, good morning, Kieran.” She yawned, pulling away from me reluctantly. I rolled my eyes before replying. “And what's so fucking ‘good’ about the morning, huh? Do you know how much you embarrassed me last night?” I snapped with a cold tone. I should've placed the bitch in a cab and sent her back home last night or maybe even gotten my driver to do it. “Gosh, sorry.” She pouted, her face lacking even a sliver of remorse. “But I was

    Warning: Mature Content Ahead As I continued sucking on Lucille's breasts, a thought crossed my mind. What if instead of her, it was Nimue who was under me, squirming as I pleasured her? Wait, what…?“Keep living in denial, this is so fun to watch.” Scratch chuckled inside me with amusement.I growled, trying to get the image off my head. No, no, no! Nimue wasn't even qualified to be my step-sister. She was just a backwater slum girl who I was doing a huge favor by trying to send out of my life. It ended there.I didn't care about the mate bond. I will not be controlled by the mate bond, God damnit!“Daddy, you're spacing out again.” Lucille's annoying voice pierced through my thoughts, snapping me back to reality. Argh, couldn't she just listen to instructions and shut the fuck up?I shook my head before grabbing her ass and smacking it. “I don't recall telling you to speak. Now, get on all fours!” I commanded harshly. But the ever-tone-deaf Lucille was unaffected by my tone as

    Nimue~~Umbra was hungry, that was for sure. But was it really him who craved Jin so much or just me?I don't know, but one thing was certain… The guy was a great kisser. Our tongues entwined in each other's mouths as he brought his hand to my thigh. My palms went to his face even though I had no idea what was happening. Were we going to… to do the deed?'Heck no! Nimue, it's my turn!’ Luna howled aggressively inside me, while Umbra laughed at her mockingly. ‘Your turn to do what?’ Umbra spat. 'Where's your mate now? Or, do you plan to make Nimue mate with the wall or something?’Luna's mate… Kieran!Oh, shit, I'd almost forgotten about him.Just then, Jin pulled away, but his hand remained on my thigh, as he looked into my eyes longingly. “Your male form… you don't have any control over it?” He asked with an unreadable tone, but I caught a mischievous glint in his eyes.What in the blazes of thunderstorms? So, my suspicions were right. Jin was gay after all.“Bisexual.” Umbra c

    “I–I understand what you mean.” I finally uttered with a sigh. “It's just that the Alpha council gave me an ultimatum to find my mate during the mating ceremony. I'm afraid of what they'll do if I show myself to them empty-handed.” ‘Afraid’ was an understatement. I was terrified! Gosh, what was the meaning of this? I thought this mate bond with Jin would have some sense of normalcy at first, but now? Now I had to hide our bond from everyone because of its connection to Umbra and my Dual-Wolf nature. “Maybe, you should drop this douchebag and go talk things out with Kieran.” Luna suddenly spoke in my head. “Didn't you see the look in his eyes last night when I picked him? He was in love! I've never seen him look at you that way.” She sounded annoyingly dreamy but as usual, Umbra was there to talk some sense into my delusional she-wolf's head. “In love’ my ass! He looked irritated. Disgusted even.” Umbra scoffed as my mind trailed back to the look on his face. “Besides, he's Nim

    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

    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

    "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
