Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 95: Dante
SUNSHINE:It was written all over Knoxx's face. That he was disappointed that I had not cried. He thought crying equates to love and that not shedding a tear meant I had no feelings at all. If only I shed a single tear, I would definitely tell him about it. But I did not want to lie just to make him feel good. Still, there was nothing good about death, anyway, especially to the people left behind. The pack kept on suffering right now thinking the alpha had departed. "Does it make a difference if I cried back then?" I asked. “Did you for your beloved Brody?”I scoffed. “Knoxx. Are we seriously fighting about that right now? Are we arguing because of Brody? That man was already dead. Why kept on dragging his name?”A snarl escaped from his lips. "Do you want to know what I did to your Brody?""He is not my Brody," I corrected, as I felt the hair of my hands stand. The cautious part of me wanted to take everything easy, not to startle Knoxx. There was something off about him that I
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 96: Scream
SUNSHINE: Dante looked at me with a shocked expression before he smiled sadly. “I'm busted now.”“Yes, you are,” was all I replied since I did not want to embarrass him from a lot of people under his command. “Tell me everything, Dante, because I deserve to know as his mate,” I whispered the last word for fear that the warriors had not yet known anything about it. I want to wait on Knoxx. "If you insist, Miss Sunshine. We can go outside where we can talk privately," he said and turned his back to me and stepped outside first. So, me and the pack were the only ones who were blind to the alpha being alive. Or maybe Alpha Ezra had known about it, but chose to hide it due to Knoxx's plea? And the rest of the people here knew he was still alive. No. That must not be the case since the emotions that his family had shown throughout the burial were all authentic. What kind of twisted joke was Knoxx trying to pull?I silently followed Dante outside and we stopped outside a little farthe
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 97: Go Back
SUNSHINE:The man, upon seeing us, ran in our direction and hid at our back. He had a limp on his right leg. “Help me! That man wanted to kill me! He is mad!”From his foul scent, a mixture of sweat and liquor and beast, I could feel he was a werewolf, but a weak one. Maybe he had human blood on him, the reason why his wolf was having a difficult time healing his wound.The man suddenly grabbed my hand and shook it. “Help,” he whispered, not minding the blood trickling down his chest. “He is going to kill me.” The man trembled as if he was traumatized by what Knoxx had done to him so far. Knoxx sure had given him a good beating.The alpha upon seeing the stranger's hand on my shoulder let out a guttural growl that almost made the ground tremble. My breath hitched. Dante held his hand in the air, signaling Knoxx that there was no threat around me. “It's okay, Alpha Knoxx. Miss Sunshine is safe. Rest easy.”“Get. Away. From. Her!” Knoxx demanded and was about to pounce at the stran
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 98: Don't Love Me
SUNSHINE:I laughed in disbelief as I continued staring at Knoxx. “You’re giving the pack to Jericho? Your beloved pack whom you fought over with Alpha Ezra?” The pack whom he wanted to keep as his that he even allowed coming with me in this town to prove that he was the rightful alpha to Heartstone Pack? “Knoxx…the next time you joke, choose something which is believable. There is no way you would be handing the pack to the beta.”I understand the love he had for his brother, but handing the pack to Benedict was another discussion. The smile on my face disappeared upon seeing he did not share my happiness. Internal panic kicked in. I shook my head as breathing became even more difficult. Someone told me that Knoxx was only kidding. ‘I don’t think he can prank you right now, Sunshine.’ Helena interjected. ‘He sure is letting go of his position and settling here.’‘Here? This place offered almost nothing! This place is beyond repair. Almost everything is destroyed.’‘Maybe…he did
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 99: Reject Me
SUNSHINE:Great. How exciting was my life now?The man to whom I professed my love had suddenly tried to give me to someone else. What’s the worst that he could do? My chest felt it was getting heavier with each passing second. When I started to leap to advance whatever relationship we had, then Knoxx would be crushing down the confidence I built for a long time. Did he think this would make me stop?‘It isn’t his fault. He is not ready. Can we at least wait for him? He is in pain, Sunshine. We should understand him.’‘How long? Am I not also in pain after what happened to everyone who died because of the war?’‘As long as we could. We will understand him,’ Helena said. ‘He felt so alone now, and we were the only ones who could help him. Let us show him that we are always here with him, and everything will fall into place. Sometimes, the bond between us was stupid for a moment as we continued to hang on for a slight change in the turn of events. Helena was living proof of that fooli
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 100: Elderly
SUNSHINE:For the next few days, Knoxx seemed set on staying at Rogue Town. His warriors had returned to the pack, while Dante opted to stay, saying he would not leave his alpha alone. There was not a time when I did leave his side the moment I saw him. What I was thankful about was that he never pushed me away now. Jericho had been constantly asking me about my whereabouts. Whether I was fine or not even if he did not have to do it. I kept on answering that there was nothing to be worried about since I’d been perfectly fine here. “I will get there when I can,” he said, one time during our phone call. “I cannot rest knowing you are alone there without Knoxx to protect you.”I bit my lower lip as guilt weighed down my chest. I haven’t told Jericho that Knoxx was alive thinking that must come from Knoxx's mouth himself. If he was ready, I was certain he would be the one to tell his people he was alive. That was his story to tell. Not mine. As the days progressed, seeing there were
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 101: Date
SUNSHINE:‘I won't be going back,’ Knoxx insisted and sauntered towards the old man and helped him build his home. I pouted. ‘You will return with me. I will make sure of that, I insisted.’He no longer listened and pretended that he did not hear anything anymore. Knoxx and I spent a whole day with the married couple and only stopped working when the sun had already set. By the time we were done, my body was already sore, and could barely lift my limbs. My stepbrother seemed like he did not care at all.Silently sniffing myself, I scrunch my nose. I smelt sour.Eww. I better wash myself when I reach my tent.Knoxx helped Grandpa set aside the carpentry tools. Dirt was clinging to his body like leeches. There were smudges of dark coal on his face, but he did not even bother to wipe them.Above all, his shirtless body was the most mouth-watering at all. My eyes had already had an overdose of vitamin E-yesight. “How could I ever repay you, alpha?” Grandpa asked. I never thought Knox
Tamed by My Alpha Stepbrother 102: Delete
SUNSHINE:Please don't turn me down, I pleaded inside my head as I waited for Knoxx's answer.If he did, he would seriously hurt my ego. “Knoxx?”I stopped and put myself in front of him. Then, a smile made its way on his lips which took my breath away while putting some strands of hair beside my ear. My heart quickened as he stared at me. “Why would you ask me when I can ask you myself?” he whispered. Using his palm, he brushed his fingers in my face and leaned in, our forehead touching each other. I could smell his breath fanning against mine with our hearts beating in synchronization. Helena poured in happiness at the mere touch.“Sunshine…I'm really sorry for fooling you and the rest. I strongly believe that disappearing is the best thing that I can do. I'm so sorry.”That feeling of being sorry again. I lifted my gaze and forced a smile. “You said you will be the one to ask me for a date? Why don't you start asking me?” I inquired.He was still grieving, I know. And if he

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
