Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Accusations
The next week on a Monday, I reluctantly followed Bruno and Kieran to school. There was still an awkward atmosphere between us after our heated moment in his father's study. I tried several times to think of a way to address the issue, but nothing came to mind. Ugh, could he just quit being a dick for one second and talk things out like an adult? "What's stopping you from doing the same thing?" Luna suddenly grumbled inside my head when we drove into the campus. I chided her. 'Shush, Luna! The situation is more complex than you realize.' She scoffed, persisting with her grumbling. "What's so complicated about it? He kissed you and you kissed him back, hence hinting at the fact that you two like each other. Heck, you're so stupidly in love without realizing it." My eyes fluttered in surprise but I didn't have the time to respond to her words when Bruno parked in the pickup zone. Without saying anything, Kieran stepped out of the car, grasping his backpack tightly. I watch
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Make Me, Father
Kieran~~Everything had been like a fever dream. Nimue and I found ourselves in my father's study, looking to uncover similar secrets. The way she seemed to be drawing closer to me made me oddly excited, and I couldn't help teasing her at any opportunity I got.However, what I hadn't expected was the revelation I uncovered from my father's hidden documents in his study. The documents were hospital records of my mother's illness, as well as copies of written statements from my father to the Alpha council about the 'Luna's' disheartening demise.My... My mother was dead. I'd thought something was wrong with my father's silence about her whereabouts, but I'd never expected him to be evil enough to hide it from me. I never got to say goodbye...No! I'll confront the bastard once and for all.Meanwhile, should we talk about the kiss with Nimue? Cause fuck, it was electric! I'd never felt so alive in a long time. Kissing Lucille always felt like I was forcing myself to eat a meal I didn't
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy _Suspended
"Make me, father," I stated defiantly, my eyes fixed on my father's retreating back. He paused in his tracks, turning slowly to look at me. "Go make yourself useful, Kieran. But if you want to waste your time on meaningless chatter, that's fine. Just don't waste my time alongside it." He uttered.Once again, he was ignoring me. Once again he was treating me like I was of little or no importance. But this would be the last time. I'd be damned if I didn't make him regret neglecting me for so long. He turned to leave, his guards walking behind him but I sped toward them. The guards noticed on time and tried stopping me. "Lycan Kieran, halt !" One of them ordered, drawing out a taser gun.But I soon showed the idiot why I was 'Lycan' in the first place. The moment the guard pointed the taser gun at my head, I punched his wrist, snapping it in the process. He screamed in pain, but I didn't stop there, hitting his chest with another punch before I grabbed his arm and flung him to the g
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Gone With The Light
The drive to school on Monday morning the next week was agonizing. Nimue joined me and I didn't even complain. Perhaps there was trouble in paradise with her and Jin...I sniggered to myself at that thought but kept quiet, my mind still processing the events of the weekend. Apart from the revelation of my mother's death and my lost Lycan title, I still had my suspicions about Jin, especially after Lucille said he saw him covered in blood where he stood on the balcony of Nimue's room. "Ugh, are we still thinking about that?" Scratch commented inside my head. I could almost picture his eye roll as he continued. "It's well known that Lucille is incompetent in anything she does. She probably didn't see Jin clearly that night."While that was true, Lucille was still a werewolf and still had the eyesight of one. There was no way she could've made such a mistake.I shook my head. The scent of blood that night made me know a human had probably been killed there. In Nimue's room. She should
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Unlikely Alliance
Everything had happened so fast. I didn't have any time to react and even if I did, the white light had been so bright that by the time I opened my eyes, Nimue was gone. Kidnapped. "She couldn't have just disappeared." Scratch snarled inside my head, equally vexed about our mate's kidnap. Our minds were in sync and in that moment, a howl escaped my mouth as my bones began snapping. Within a couple of seconds, I fully shifted into Scratch's wolf form and howled before racing down the bleachers.I got to the field below in a matter of seconds and began sniffing into the air with my heightened wolf smell. I was able to pick up Nimue's scent but it ended on the field grounds. It was almost as if she... Disappeared. 'Magic?' I thought to myself as I slowly shifted back into my human form.My clothes were now torn but I ignored that as I went into thought. "Crap, it all makes sense now," I muttered, rubbing my forehead with frustration. "Her abductors were witches!"The white light ha
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Kidnapped
Nimue~~I blinked repeatedly, unable to believe the message on my phone screen. Kieran wanted us to meet after the end of lectures today. At the abandoned football field. No matter how hard I thought about it, it still seemed like a bad idea and even Umbra agreed with that thought."How sure are you that it's Kieran who sent that? You don't even have his number and the caller ID is unknown." He pointed out in my head. As for Luna, she scoffed. "Please! You're just saying that because you don't want things to work out between Kieran and Nimue." She uttered with certainty.Umbra responded with disdain. "No, I'm saying that because I don't want us to get in trouble or worse. I think it's better if we call the number and confirm if it's really –"Before Umbra could finish his statement, Nadia turned back and called me. "Hello? Earth to Nimue?" Her voice brought me out of my trance as I blinked, staring awkwardly at Nadia who had a worried expression on her face. "You blanked out the
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Do You Think He Cares?
Soon enough, the chuckle became an echo of laughter, overwhelming me as I looked around erratically trying to find its source. Just then, I remembered my mother's words about the existence of curses and witches. My Dual-wolf curse was a result of a witch placing a curse on me. Witches existed but throughout my stay in Pureblood College, I'd never come across one. Until now, apparently."Gosh, are they going to be like the movies and give you a poisoned apple so they can steal your beauty?" Luna gasped Inside me, her tone exuding genuine worry. But I ignored her, waiting to hear what Umbra had to say instead. "Something tells me whatever this is... It has something to do with your Dual-wolf curse." He uttered solemnly. Scared beyond words, I asked him mentally. 'Well, what are you waiting for? Let's shift.'However, no matter how much I tried to connect with my wolves and will myself to shift, it wasn't working. It was almost as if something was suppressing them, preventing me fro
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Take The Burden
The owner of the voice stepped into the room through an open entrance. It was the man in black armor that I'd seen before I passed out!Apart from the black armor that made him look like a knight, he also had brown hair and sharp green eyes as well as a chiseled face with sideburns. I'd always said Jin and Kieran both looked like they were personally crafted by gods but this man looked like a god himself! He looked like he was in his mid-thirties, but something told me he was older. However, apart from his looks, there was an odd sense of familiarity that bubbled inside me when he turned his sharp gaze to me. That feeling only increased when I saw his gaze soften while looking at me.Anyway, the witch who'd been about to slap me before the man's interruption pulled away from me, turning her gaze to the man who approached in majestic strides."Marcel... I was merely trying to discipline the girl. It's not my fault that she has an..." She paused, bringing her fingers to my cheeks. Her

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
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Preparations
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
Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy Play With The Tiger
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
