Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 87: Help Me
SUNSHINE:Just like what Mother and Alpha Ezra had said, I had a lot of bodyguards. Wherever I go, someone will always go with me even if I am only going to the shower room.Those guards were constricting my movements and I could not freely do what I wanted. I needed to go back to Rogue Town, but how could I do that if they wouldn't be leaving my side?These reminded me of the time when I was at Rogue Town and Knoxx would not leave me alone since Jericho's arrival. My heart constricted at that thought. That man...I hoped he was safe wherever he was right now. I did not want anything bad to happen to him. "Where are you going, Miss Sunshine?" a bodyguard asked when I was about to step outside the house. I had to look for a horse to give me a ride. Or anything that would give me a ride.Easier said than done. No one wanted me to leave this place. "Uhm...outside?"He shook his head. "You're not allowed to. I'm sorry, Miss. The alpha strictly forbade us to let you out without his app
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 88: No One
SUNSHINE:“Sunny. What are you talking about?” Jericho asked on the other line? “Did I hear it right? You were imprisoned against your will?” he raised a question. His voice seemed like he was wary about something. Was it because of me? This was the first time I contacted him after I awakened here at the pack. Or perhaps he had not yet forgiven me after thinking I left him?I could not blame him. No one told him the truth. And maybe if he did not want to get me back, he wouldn't be talking to me right now. “I told you the truth. Knoxx is keeping me against my will.” Well, that was the truth. “You've got to help me escape from this, Jericho.”I sauntered to the window and looked outside. Below, some guards continued patrolling around the area. And outside my door, I could feel someone guarding it. Not to mention the other guard who was not making his presence known. “You don’t believe me, do you?”Jericho sighed on the other line.“Sunny. The rumors of that mutt fighting in war reach
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 89: News
SUNSHINE:“Really? You’re going to help me now?” I asked in disbelief as if I was going to cry. I think I’m going to kiss Jericho right now for the help he will give. Finally. There was already hope. Wait for me, Knoxx. I will fix this. There will no longer be anyone killed. If it was necessary to lay down my life, I would give it.“Y-Yes. Anything for you, S-Sunny.”I grinned and could not contain my happiness. “Let’s meet here, then. Come here in the pack. I will be waiting. And please, I hope no one will know about this plan, Jericho. I trust that you will keep it from anyone else?” I inquired.He heaved a sigh on the other line.I understood that reaction since he was also risking the wrath of Alpha Ezra and the rest of my stepbrothers, but if we both could pull this off, I would be forever indebted to Jericho.“Y-You can count on me, Sunny. You know what I am after is your happiness, right?”“Thank you so much, once again. I hope you will not take long,” I said and ended the
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 90: You Are a Murderer
SUNSHINE:I almost fainted but was able to lean on a tree.Knoxx and Alonso died?My inside shook, in disbelief. The other part of me was screaming about how the heck this happened. Why would they die? Why?There was no way that it would happen, right?Knoxx and Alonso were unbeatable and there were also the other two brothers. The two were powerful warriors and unbeatable. “You’re lying!” I screamed while I pointed my trembling fingers at his chest. “Knoxx and his brother are not yet dead!” I declared, not believing any of the words he said.My head spun. Mother noticed my presence, ran towards me, hugged me then sobbed uncontrollably. Seeing her like this reminded me of the times when Father died and then tragedy when we were only two struck almost every day. The bullying. The miserable life. “Mother… tell me those are not true!” I demanded. “Alpha Ezra. Tell me Knoxx and Alonso are not dead! You're only pulling a prank, right? Right?”Alpha Ezra watched me with a sad smile while
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 91: Freedom
SUNSHINE:Murderer.That word kept on ringing in my head. I could not bring myself to defend myself because the beta was right. I was the murderer in one way or another. I brought a lot of death to the pack. Especially my mate. The alpha.“Brother. That’s not true,” Cayden interjected and pulled me into his side. His grip was firm as if consoling me. “Fighting with Sunshine will not make our brother Knoxx happy. Wherever he is right now. That's enough fighting. We already made Sunshine's life miserable before. Can we stop this immaturity?”“Bullshit!” Benedict roared and swung his fist on the wall. There was a crack on the part where he punched. His body trembled in anger. “That woman is at fault! When she came, our family was no longer the same. Our brothers died because of her!”“Benedict! Stop!” Alpha Ezra ordered. “Don’t put the blame on Sunshine. She has nothing to do with this. Knoxx and Alonso died because he sacrificed himself for the pack.”Benedict stared at his father with
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 92: Packing
SUNSHINE:“What an ungrateful wench,” Benedict stated. “You have the audacity to say those? Even in the end, Knoxx wanted to keep you safe.”I never asked anyone to keep me safe. Not even Knoxx. They decided it for me. Did they think I was that weak? If they continue protecting me, then it will never be a surprise why they think lowly of me.“Will you stop being an asshole for a minute, Benedict? Cut me some slack, will you? We can argue tomorrow. Not now.” I might say something which I will only regret in the end. “Sunshine has a point, beta,” Cayden declared. “We are no longer kids.” He patted his brother’s shoulders. “We can rest for now. Fighting Sunshine is not worth it. We are no longer kids who bully her. Now that our brothers are gone, we need to be mature.” To me, he said, “Again, my apologies for what we did in the past. We were only young back then.”I nodded. “That’s fine. We can leave the past and move on. Why don’t we focus on what needs to be done?”“You’re kind. Kn
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 93: Knoxx?
SUNSHINE:Rogue Town became unrecognizable. The once vibrant place blooming with people despite the evidence of poverty was now gone. The place looked like it had become a ghost town. The smell of death wafted around the air as well as the burnt remnants of houses and the human body. The house where we once lived was no longer there. There were traces of decomposing bodies that wafted through the air making me gag.No matter where I looked, the place spelled death.Warriors were spreading all over the place. Someone was barking orders to the warriors. Where are the town people? All I was seeing were the warriors from our pack. I was specifically looking for Thalia and Gael, hopeful that they had not returned to their pack. Or maybe returning there was more beneficial than staying in the camp.All I wanted was to make sure that they were safe and sound. “Gather all the cadavers in one location and bury them all!”My breath hitched upon recognizing who was barking orders. Dante!Ou
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 94: Tears
SUNSHINE:I robbed my eyes to make sure that I was not dreaming. That this was not a product of my imagination. That this was not because I missed him so much. That this was Knoxx in flesh and blood. My body shook as I continued to gaze at him. But no matter how much I rubbed my eyes until it became painful, the only man that I saw was none other than Knoxx—my mate. The man who laid down his life for the greater good. "K-Knoxx?" I called once again but he did not say anything. “Sunshine.”That baritone voice. I stifled a sob. ‘Helena? Please tell me I am not dreaming right now.’‘You’re not,’ Helena retorted using our mind link. ‘Our mate is alive and returned from the grave.’“Knoxx? I-Is that really you?” I mumbled. Breathing became a struggle. How the heck was he even alive? What was the purpose why he fooled the people? There were too many questions running in my mind right now and my mouth could not keep up with my mind. Knoxx advanced towards me, eyes locked on me. I d

Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 118: End
SUNSHINE:I felt like I was an eggshell when I returned to the pack. My mind was a mess and I did not know whether I should be happy or not at the turn of events. Jericho had just broken the engagement and wanted me to be with Knoxx as if it were simple. It was not. How could I be with someone after knowing I hurt the person who truly loved me?“Sunshine? You okay?”I lifted my gaze after I stepped out of the car. Knoxx was at the garage, washing his car. Good for him. He turned off the faucet and wiped his hands on his pants. He was shirtless and sweat decorated his chest. Or maybe it was the water from the faucet. If I was not in shock at what happened earlier, perhaps I was already licking my lips upon seeing his body. “Do I look okay after seeing you?”“You were already not in a good mood when you stepped out of the car.”A low growl escaped from my lips. “You shut your mouth.”He heaved a sigh. “Have you eaten?”“Why does it matter?” I snapped. “Don't pretend like you care
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 117: Goodbye
SUNSHINE:Knoxx loved me. He finally loved me. Too bad, when I already gave up, he came chasing me. Why did it have to become this way? “What do you expect me to say?” I asked. “Do you want me to say that I have feelings too? How many times do I have to remind you that I already have Jericho? Why can't you see that?” I growled.Please don't confuse me, too. I pity Jericho. He was a changed man and I did not want to sin. My conscience won't allow that. “I…I don’t expect anything, Sunshine. I just wanted to tell you my feelings. I don’t…want to have any regrets.”“You really don’t care what your pack would say?”“Anyone’s opinion doesn't matter anymore, Sunshine. This time, I will pursue what I want. I won't stop unless you are already married. I don't want to live in regrets.”I inhaled deeply and pocketed his handkerchief. If only he confessed when I had not accepted Jericho…then maybe…there might be a chance between us. A sad smile spread on my lips. “Is this the kind man you ar
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 116: I Love You
SUNSHINE:“Alright, Jericho. That’s good. Tell me if everything is okay.” I had to marry Jericho so that Knoxx would stop pestering me. I meant he already made it clear that he did not want me. So, I hoped he would stick to that. Sensing that someone was watching me, I looked around and found a pair of eyes watching me intently. Shite. My heart skipped a beat when I caught sight of Knoxx. He was about to enter the hall but stopped upon seeing me. If I stayed here, our paths would always cross. I had to get out of this pack as soon as possible.“I’ll be calling you back later, Jericho. T-thanks,” I muttered, in a hurry. Knoxx's steps faltered. As if he debated on approaching me or not. “Yes. Take care, Sunny. I love you so much. I hope this will be the start of something new. I love you,” he whispered lovingly. My mind went blank. He loved me. Until now? But my love for him had already disappeared when Knoxx entered the picture. What should I say?I bit the inside of my cheek
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 115: He Promised
SUNSHINE: Out of reflex, I stood at the bed and scrambled away, losing my balance and landed on the floor with a loud thud. I gasped when a wave of pain exploded. I cursed loudly. Knoxx was suddenly on my side and asked, “Are you okay, Sunshine?” His voice was full of worry. His eyebrows raised and that was the time when I realized he was clean-shaven and his hair was also cut properly. He looked handsome…that I could not stop myself from thumping loudly against my ribcage. Jericho's face flashed inside my head. Guilt swallowed my heart. How could my heart jump because of someone else? Disgusting.“Do not touch me. Stay away from me. Your touch repulses me.”Knoxx let out a shaky breath. “Sunshine. I’m only checking if you are hurt.”“I’m not that weak. Why did you come here?”My heart continued to hammer against my chest. What was he doing here? Staying in the same room with him brought so many memories. I wanted to run away from him and hide.“I’m glad you're not in pain.”
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 114: It was Knoxx
SUNSHINE:I am going to marry Jericho a month from now. That was our agreement. Jericho’s parents were both excited and I had already told everyone in the family about it. Yes. That includes my stepbrothers as well. Mother was thrilled but my stepbrothers were not. It was as if they wanted me to wait for Knoxx. I sighed and rolled to my side. Leaving this room was not something I wanted to do now even if Jericho and I both agreed that we would be choosing wedding dresses even if the wedding ceremony was only simple. His Mother insisted that we should choose my dress properly for a prosperous life.I did not want a luxurious dress. All I wanted was a peaceful life. A peaceful married life. Marriage. Am I going to do this or am I only using Jericho?He said he was willing to be used, another part of my mind said.He did, but the guilt…If you don’t want to feel that, try loving him so that it will fade.I was not the type to use other people. I would rather be used than to be anoth
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 113: Return
DANTE:The alpha was drunk again and stayed at the river, while watching the bonfire, I mused to myself as I hid on the large tree. I wanted to be disappointed, but I also understood why he was acting like this—his youngest brother's death. I wanted to pretend that I did not know what was happening to him, but I did.My heart tightened when he would call his dead brother and sometimes Sunshine when he was so drunk. I looked at the sky which was full of stars. I wished the day would come when Alpha Knoxx would stop blaming himself. He got worse after Miss Sunshine went back to the pack. Did the two have a falling out? If I were the alpha, I would not let anything separate me from my mate regardless of the reason. May it a step sibling or not.Alpha Knoxx emptied the contents of the bottle and put it aside. He already drunk five bottles of beer. There were five more left for him to empty. Still, he continued taking care of his people. Little by little, they accepted him as their
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 112: I Won't
SUNSHINE: Jericho knew he messed up the moment he saw my expression. It turned sour until it darkened. His mouth opened and closed until he fell silent.I clenched my fist and put them on my side. “You think it’s about Knoxx?” That man who left me? That man who never wanted me? “What do you think of me, Jericho?”You liar! How could you lie with a straight face?Isn’t he the reason for all of this? Isn’t he the reason why you could not move on to the present, Sunshine? The other part of my mind asked.Jericho went to the window, pulled out something from his pocket. A cigarette. As if reminded that I hated the smell of it, he grabbed one stick and snapped it into two. “It was him. You loved that man,” he insisted. I lifted my chin, feeling my lips quivered.I was glad that he was not looking at my direction or he would know that he was right. I loved Knoxx. I loved the man who said he liked me but never loved me. At all.My chest went heavy. Fuck.How long will I continue to dea
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 111: Miscommunication
SUNSHINE:“Mom. You don’t have to pressure Sunshine about that. We did not come to visit here for that,” Jericho declared in my defense. Lifting my gaze, I saw how his cheeks flamed with embarrassment. Cute. Cute?I chuckled nervously, but his mother won’t stop any moment from now. She pinched his son’s side.“Oh, come on, Jericho. Have you been slacking off? How many times will I tell you that you should win her back? I want her as my daughter-in-law!” his mother scolded.Mentally, I sighed in relief. She did not hate me for what I did to their son.‘Why would they when it was Jericho’s fault?’ Helena interjected. ‘It was right to reject him.’‘The last time I remember, you were bawling your eyes out when I rejected him.’Helena sneered. ‘That was all in the past. I want Knoxx to be better.’“Honey. Let’s just let the kids deal with it.”“That’s right, Mom. Right now, Sunny and I are friends.”“Friends?” His mother’s disappointment was evident on his face. “I never said that you two
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 110: Wedding Preparation?
SUNSHINE:The heart hammered against my ribcage as I walked in the hallway while clenching my fist.How could the beta ask me what would happen to Knoxx if ever I married Jericho when the alpha specifically showed me that he had nothing to do with me? Men. Did they think women had all the time to wait for them? Like the heck!I should seriously consider if I want to marry Jericho or not so that this will stop.‘What will happen to our mate, then?’ Helena asked, whimpering. She had been silently crying in the corner of my mind.‘That is no longer my concern. Knoxx has chosen and it’s time for me to do the same.’“Sunshine. Wait!”I heard footsteps and I did not need to stop to know who it was. Cayden. The rational one among the brothers. And he was also the most sane person who never blamed me for what happened to the youngest brother. How unfortunate we were never given the chance to be closer as siblings. “Sunshine. Can we talk?”I stopped and faced him. Sweat coated his forehead f
