MATED TO HER BULLY STEPBROTHERS 85
AXELThe sight of Ashley, after she took her shower drove my senses to near madness.Tiny drops were trickling all over, causing my eyes to parade over her body.Water ran from her shoulder blades and slowly directed my eyes to her boobs. I swallowed at the sight of her taut nipples which seemed to stop the water from moving downwards.I wanted to suck her nipples so bad.She looked up at me and her eyes lingered. I gave her a cold look and reached out to hold her arm.I helped Ashley out of the bathtub and handed her the towel. My teeth were gritted the whole time. I was aroused and my dick did a terrible job of hiding what was going on in my head.My wolf was dying to touch Ashley. It felt like a strong longing on my inside. I knew I didn't have to fight it. I could take Ashley there and then. But I hate to think that I cannot hold my hunger when I am with her.I stood watching as she wiped her body slowly.Holy smokes!My eyes traveled over her curves. I wanted to run my nails over
MATED TO HER BULLY STEPBROTHERS 86: I shouldn’t feel this for Ashley
AXELI pushed my tongue into her mouth. She opened wider and took in my tongue. I tilted my head and plunged deeper, aiming for the back of her throat. She moaned. A sound that caused my heart to throb. If only she knew how much I wanted to hear her moan. I deepened the kiss, while my hand roamed her body. Her hands were moving beside her. I knew she was dying to touch me. But she dared not. I pulled away from her and looked into her eyes. They had gone from a dull green to a gold-rimmed emerald. The smell of her arousal filled my senses. I could not hold back. I stared hungrily at her boobs. They rose and fell with her chest, in line with her heartbeat. I tore my eyes away from them and looked at her lips which were still parted. I kissed her again. I savored the contours of her mouth with my tongue. She pushed her body closer to mine. Then I pushed my fingers into her hair and freed them from the bond she used on them. Her hair poured down her shoulders while my fingers dug in
MATED TO HER BULLY STEPBROTHERS 87: Prioritize Yourself
ASHLEYI pulled out my face towel and wiped off the sweat that ran from my temple down to my cheeks. I took a deep breath and practiced the split again and this time it was smoother. I nodded and did it again. Then I did a quick swirl with my hands in the air as my eyes danced around the practice room.I felt really happy that I could do cheer club exercises again. Being in the practice room brought lots of memories. I recalled how often I visited the practice room, to do my routines. I had high hopes of joining the cheer club. That was before Jasmine suddenly became interested too and threatened to harm me if I competed with her for a position in the club. In a bid to avoid trouble, I had given up on the club and Jasmine got in. She even became the president, accountable only to the club coach. Jasmine ensured I did not join the club. She even stopped me from entering the practice room. But now I could practice my routine exercises and Jasmine could not stop me. After the boys gav

JASMINE“Jasmine!” I heard someone call, “The club coach says you can come to her office now.” I nodded and took a deep breath. I had not been myself since I saw Ashley speaking to the coach. I replayed the words of the coach in my head when she joined us during training. She said, “Jasmine, I think you need to pay more attention to your job description as the club president. We cannot have the club filled with people who lack enthusiasm, while some exceptional talents are wasting away in this same school.” I felt attacked. Why was it my fault that there were hidden talents who refused to speak up? If some people were good enough to join the club, why wouldn't they just walk up to me and state their interest? I managed to defend myself before the coach. And somehow the matter did not escalate. She further mentioned that she found someone who she wanted on the team and all she needed was a ‘yes’ from this person and that would be all. I had my eyes on the ground. I wanted to know
MATED TO HER BULLY STEPBROTHERS 89: Stealing everything from me
JASMINE I felt my throat tighten with fury at the sight of Ashley in front of me. “What's this rumor I hear about you wanting to join the cheer club?” I asked with a hateful stare. She blinked and creased her brow, “It's not a rumor. I do want to join the cheer club. The coach is aware.”Her eyes moved from my face to the top of my head and back to my face again. “You what!” “Yes. I have wanted to join the club for a long time now. But you…” “Shut the fuck up, you fool! Do you realize I am president of that club?” I moved closer to her. “I am fully aware of that. But like I said earlier, the coach is aware.” “And what is that supposed to mean?” I asked, my body shaking with anger. “What do you want, Jasmine? I have other things to do, please,” she said in a low, yet firm tone. “What! Are you talking to me in that manner? How dare you! I see you now have a voice in this school, huh? Listen, I am president of the cheer club and I will make sure you do not join the…” “Jasmine
MATED TO HER BULLY STEPBROTHERS 90: Don't play dumb
ASHLEYThe first day of training was terrible. I got to the field as early as possible to avoid Jasmine's trouble. She could not hide her hate as she sighted me. She walked over to me. In a low fierce tone, she said, “I'm gonna make your life miserable. It's a promise.” I looked away as if I had not heard anything. We began training with various exercises. And at each point, Jasmine canceled me out. “Hey, new girl! Step back, you are not getting it!” I sighed and stepped back. I did the 360-degree swirl and everyone cheered at how balanced I was. I could not help but smile at their hailings. “Hey, newbie! What was that? Do you think this is a kid's game? Is that your definition of a swirl? Step back!” she yelled. “And why is that?” I heard the coach's voice as she walked majestically to the field. She looked around and acknowledged the greetings of some girls. She waved at me with a smile. “Her swirl is perfect, Jasmine. What do you have against it?” her eyes were so cool, y

JASMINEGoing over to the palace to find Axel was pointless after all. I managed to leave with Axel without being seen by Ashley and the princes. They were so engrossed in their stupid make-out session that they did not notice us. However, Axel did not let it slide after he caught me watching his brothers make out with Ashley.“I think you are taking things too far, Jasmine! Standing there staring at them was uncalled for,” he said, angrily. “But I…I was looking for you” I explained. “Looking for me? And somehow you believed I would be there too? Making out with Ashley?” I could hear the irritation in his voice and I felt so stupid. Nothing I said made sense to Axel. When he eventually allowed me to explain things to him and why I wanted Ashley out of the way, he said I should not bother. He said Ashley was not good enough to take my place. I told him specifically that I wanted him to deal with her and make her stay away from the club. But he refused. He said he would not stoop
MATED TO HER BULLY STEPBROTHERS 92: A set up
ASHLEYI could swear on my life that Jasmine had set me up. The ground was unusually slippery and my leg slid off without any form of warning. I tried to keep myself from falling, but I couldn't.I felt so much pain on my waist and my hip bone seemed to have cracked.I knew Jasmine was up to something when she began speaking nicely about me. It was completely unlike her. And the whole video thing was to humiliate me further.I did not expect the girls to help me and I know Jasmine did not expect it too. They dragged me on my feet and helped me limp off the field. My entire body was on fire and I just needed to lay down urgently.“Thank you so much,” I whispered to the girls who led me towards the classroom.“You're welcome, Ashley. Sorry about the fall. It must hurt,” one of them said.“Yeah, but I'll be fine,” I managed to say.Then I saw Carson rushing towards us. His face was laced with concern as he got to me.“Someone called me, saying you had a bad fall during training.”I nodde

ASHLEY I recognized them the minute I saw them. Their faces were covered as were the faces of every guard in the palace. But there was something different when our eyes met. I felt a spark on my inside. My wolf surged within me, causing my heartbeat to triple. “They have come to rescue you. Your true mates!” I tried to wrap my head around it but my mind was blurred. I knew them, I felt it strongly, but I did not know exactly why they came for me. I wanted to stay back and check what it was about, but Killian would not let me. When he insisted that I left the throne room, I had no choice but to leave. As I went to my chamber, I saw another wolf. His eyes ignited the same spark in me. We stood staring at each other and just like the other two, he also was dressed as a guard. “Who are you?” I asked, calmly. “You do not know me? Ashley?” He looked heartbroken and shattered. “I feel a connection with you, but I do not know exactly who you are.” We went into my chamber and he took h

AXEL“All we need now is to reach the palace,” Carson whispered as he crouched beside me in the forest.Things were not the same after Killian defeated us and took Ashley away. Breaking the mate bond was extreme. It made it impossible for us to connect with Ashley, thereby making the search for her longer than normal. But we finally found Killian’s pack.While he was busy shuffling between his pack and the capital,we were busy making our way deeper into his territory. We had killed many of his guards and he had no idea what was going on. We had eaten deep into his territory. We took our time, knowing that this was no small battle.As the days went on, we were able to make our way into the village, hiding behind cabins and caves.“Now that they know we are here, we have to be more careful. I would also suggest that we hurry up and get into the palace,” Brody said as we sat down to strategize.We entered the palace at night, through the back. We injected the guards and put them to sleep

KILLIANAfter the marriage ceremony between Ashley and me, a wave of fulfillment washed over me. I stared at her with pride. My labor of many years finally paid off.I instructed the maids to set up a room specially for Ashley. She was my Luna and I wanted that to be evident in e etu way. I assigned some maids a d to get. They were to ensure that her needs were met.I visited my secret room to do a power check. I was elated when I discovered that some heights which had seemed impossible a while back, I now surpassed.I had a meeting with the elders later in the day. I could see the hidden questions in their eyes as they stared at me. But no one dared to ask me questions.“The time to claim what was rightfully mine is here. It's time to ascend to the throne.”They stared at me, still confused. Then they began exchanging confused comments among themselves. I wonder how I surrounded myself with such dummies.“It's time to declare myself as king of the entire capital. I will now be the

KILLIANI took Ashley to a dimly lit chamber. It was bare and cold, save for a funny-looking bed. I had to be sure that she was ready to do my bidding. She had to prove herself worthy of my palace.I stood over her, my gaze unwavering.“You will be my Luna,” I declared, enjoying the way my voice echoed in the room, “we will be married, and you will serve your purpose.”“Never!” she barked, her eyes spitting fire.I chuckled, a low sound that ended almost immediately, “we'll see about that.”I began pacing the room, speaking of our future, of our children, of a life together. The more I spoke, the angrier Ashley became. She was not willing to do my bidding. Her eyes pierced my heart as she shot daggers with them. But I didn't care.I had come a long way on this plan. I had put in so much to ensure that I got Ashley as my Luna. Having her tight here in my territory was proof that the universe was granting my long-term desire.I tried to resist the urge to hit her. She kept swearing at m

ASHLEYThe moon was full and heavy, sending shadows all over the forest. I looked around trying to understand where we were at the time. I looked around trying to trace the road from where Killian parked his car.“My men will take care of you for the night. Enjoy the space given you in the cabin. Tomorrow, we will continue the journey to my park.”I did not respond to him, neither did I look in his direction.“You heard me right?”I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that this evil creature was the same Long Leg Ahjussi that I had known for so long. I felt miserable. I had been played. I let myself be used! To think I had sold some information to an enemy. “I want some time alone!”He looked down at me for a few seconds, “you can have your time alone but don’t try anything funny,” he said dangling his index finger in front of me.“I don't care what you would do to me!” I said, angrily.“Ashley!” he shouted, his voice laced with a wickedness, “I would advise you to corporate

ASHLEY“I am Ashley's online lover!”I stared at Killian with my jaw dropping in shock.Axel and Brody turned to look at me with confusion. I couldn't believe I was in such a terrible situation. It was too overwhelming to find out so many things at once.I thought we had escaped.Brody told me that waiting in the underground room was too risky.“That Killian guy is too sensitive and smart. We cannot let him get us so easily,” he paused and looked around, thoughtfully.Then he pointed to the wall at the other end of the room. I looked at the wall, wondering how we would go through it. He held my hand and rushed towards the wall. He stretched and tapped the wall and a pad of buttons appeared from the side. I had no idea that the wall was computerized. It opened up, creating a space for us to go through.I followed behind Brody and waited for him to close the wall again.“Carson is waiting for us outside the school walls. Just follow my lead and we will be fine. I'm sure Axel is facing h

AXELWas Killian monitoring us?I couldn't get my mind off what Ashley had shared with us. Killian was definitely monitoring us. We all agreed to be more watchful of him and to report any suspicious movement to the rest of us.I sat beside Killian during basketball training. Our team had just scored a superb goal and we were leading. Killian jumped on his feet and cheered for the goal. I remained in my seat while shouting at the top of my voice.Just then, Killian's phone chimed, and a message popped on the screen.If you let the info slip, then I think we need to act fast.I gasped and looked up. I was relieved to see that he was still occupied with cheering our teammates.His phone chimed again.She might have sensed something was off already and might have told the others. Was this about Ashley?I looked up to find Killian staring down at me. He quirked his brow questioningly at me. I ignored him and looked ahead.He sat quietly and picked up his phone. I expected him to check hi

ASHLEYHanging out with Killian was quite comforting. Being with him gave me a break from all the hurdles and pressure back in the palace. His presence always brought a sense of calm, a kind of balance in the weight of my life.There was so much to plan. I attended a series of meetings with my mates and the elders. Aside from the stress, I was getting used to the real life of royalty. But I found myself looking forward to the relief that came with spending time with Killian.I told Anita about him and I also told Long Leg Ahjussi. He said he was happy for me but he wouldn’t want someone else to take his place in my life. I laughed at him for being jealous.I reassured him that no one could take his place. While I relaxed with Killian in school, I did not discuss my life issues with him. I was careful to avoid telling him personal things and other occurrences in the palace. I felt more comfortable telling them to Long Leg Ahjussi. He was very understanding and we had come a long way.J

AXELI could not avoid the smell of sweat that filled the air in the basketball room. I sat in the front row, watching the others play, while waiting for my turn. The repeated thud of the ball against the floor echoed in my ears, while my eyes got busy with something else.I watched Killian, the new guy, with a mix of admiration and unease. His movements were effortless and his shots were calculated. There was an uncommon grace to his play that resonated with something deep within me. I concluded it had to be born from years of practice since he did not mention anything about being from a special breed or having any powers at all.But that grace, it was something. The fierceness with which he played could not be possessed by just any wolf. He seemed to have a perfect blend of expertise and that feral touch I couldn't place.At first, I'd been wary of him. His arrival had disrupted the school in a very haughty way. It felt like a sudden intrusion into our territory. But as the days pas
