(Alexander)“THE patient is in a very vulnerable condition right now. Her head was severely injured from the explosion. Like I said before, we wouldn’t know the severity of the situation unless she wakes up,” Doctor Pryce explained. “And after a couple of tests, we concluded that Lady Katriona is suffering from retrograde amnesia. It’s a type of medical condition which usually happens to humans. It was also the first time something like this had occurred to a wolf which is another proof of how weak Lady Katriona had gotten. That’s why she needs complete rest and understanding.”Doctor Pryce glanced at me before he went on. “It is difficult for lady Katriona to remember the recent events that happened to her. The only thing she seems to remember now are the memories that occurred in the past like being engaged to be married to Alpha Bradley.”Once again, I felt the crushing tightness in my chest as silence hung cold between us. I remembered how Katriona looked at me back in her hospita
Trapped Between Two Alpha Brothers Chapter 49: All Of Me
KATRIONA was standing on the rooftop alone. It felt like a lifetime since I last saw her. She was gazing up at the moon like she was communicating with it. There was an enigmatic air surrounding her. The wind was softly playing with her hair and with her hospital gown but she made the simple fabric appear regal.Maybe it was the way she stood. I could now see a trace of confidence in her tiniest of actions. Was it because she was in her own turf? She looked at ease as if she was right where she needed to be.Something had changed.And it was not because of the absence of her memories.That time while she was battling for her dear life and I held her in my arms, I could have sworn I saw her wolf. I heard it. It only happened once but I couldn’t have been mistaken. The problem was that none of us were able to detect the presence of her wolf after that. The city doctors who had checked on her said the same thing: the explosion brought by Ulric’s mages had a huge impact on her and on her

(Katriona) ALEXANDER’S gaze did not stray from my face as he took one more step closer to me. My lips parted and my breathing became shallow. His eyes looked rough, wild, and dangerous and for a second, I thought he was going to shift and snarl at me. But Alexander’s hands were a huge contrast to the look in his eyes. He traced the seam of my lips with his thumb. Silence stretched between us for a long time as blood rushed all throughout my body. My heart started to pound so hard. I grabbed Alexander’s hand and took it off my mouth before putting a distance between us. “This is not appropriate. We’ve just met, Alexander. Whatever culture you have in the North is different from this place.” “I'm sorry.” He did not look sorry at all. But there was a touch of sadness in his eyes when he spoke. “You just looked so much like someone I know that I was not able to stop myself.” He cleared his throat. “So… you are getting married?” “It’s okay. Just don’t do it again. And yes, I’m gettin

(Katriona)“FORGIVE us, honey. As much as we want to take you to the gathering with us, we are worried that facing a big crowd like that might be too soon for you. Besides, your doctor suggested that you stay in your room to rest. You don’t mind me and your sister going on your behalf, right?”The Order had organized a party and wanted to invite me and dad. Of course, these two wouldn’t lose this golden opportunity to mingle with the royals.When I coughed a couple of times, I saw Dominique and Chantal exchange a quick glance at each other. I caught the spark in their eyes before both of them assisted me in lying on the bed.“No, it’s alright,” I said in a frail voice. “Please don’t mind me and just go. I’d hate to spoil your fun just for my sake.”Chantal rolled her eyes. “Have you forgotten, mom? Katie’s not a big fan of parties. She’d been a wallflower almost half her life. Attending might only trigger some ugly memories. No offense meant, little sis. I just really hate it when peo

I WASHED the blood off my hands. As silence filled the air, I stared at my reflection on the mirror. I stared at the woman I had become.Stronger. Braver. Wiser.But broken.In fact, I feel more broken than before.The servants trembled in front of me now. None of them had to know that as soon as I stepped inside my room and locked the door, I had to run to the bathroom and throw up. I was never a fan of violence.But this was my reality now.If I don’t do this, who will stand up for me? My father? He was the one who thought giving me a complete family was the solution to all of our problems. He said he loved me and yet, he didn’t trust me with the truth.He believed the doctor more than his own daughter, saying that tricolored wolves were different. They were extremely sensitive. They see things and feel things on a deeper level. He was worried that the loss I would feel about growing up without a mother would have a negative impact on my wolf. Worse, it might manifest late. It was a

(Alexander)SOMETIMES, when I look at them, I see nothing of the happy family everyone was talking about. I look at the Aldanas and I see bridges burning.Dominique and Chantal were very attentive to Katriona. They could easily bag the best mother and sister awards as they fill her plate with food. For outsiders, the two would appear very sweet. Someone had to look closely to see that their gestures were meant to embarrass Katriona, to make her look unstable and very dependent in front of other people which seemed to be their motive anyway.But Katriona just took whatever they offered with that alluring smile of hers. In fact, she sounded bubbly when she thanked them.The Katriona in the North was very transparent. But the Katriona in the city was an enchanting puzzle. I could no longer guess what she was thinking. She was smiling so beautifully but gone was the usual warmth I would feel within whenever she smiles.She was sitting between me and Bradley. Why was this bastard even here

(Katriona)“STOP looking at her as if she is the only one who deserves all your time and attention. Open your eyes! Can’t you see that my sister doesn’t see you the way I do? I’ve loved you since we were young! My feelings had never changed even if you left the city. Look, if this is about my former fiancé, don’t mind him. What I had with him was purely based on business. What I feel for you is nothing like that. It’s stronger. I always knew you would return to the city one day, alpha. I waited for you. For me, it’s always been you. So, please look at me, too.”I was inside my room and currently changing my clothes for my date with Bradley when I heard Chantal say all that. If I didn’t know about her nonexistent heart, I would say that she was hurt. But that was the thing about my sister. She could say and do whatever was necessary to rise on top.She could fake anything… even love.I was sure that dramatic speech was meant for Alexander since Bradley excused himself a while ago to ta

WITH every step I took away from Alexander, my wolf howled. I could feel her clawing out of my chest, desperate to reach out to him. I had to stop moving for a minute when the clawing got too much that I almost couldn’t breathe.This was a hundred times worse than burning inside that barn house, than being pushed in the stairs, or getting struck by Chantal’s arrows. It felt like the pain was stealing my breath away.When my memories returned, I didn’t cry. When I realized I was betrayed or when I remembered my family’s lies, my eyes remained dry. Even when I shed blood last night and saw the monster I needed to become, no tear had slipped from my eyes.I wouldn’t break that now.I wouldn’t cry this time either.

IT WAS past eight in the evening when I received a call from Clyde informing me about Willow and Katriona’s location. I teleported right away; my chest was still pounding.And there, I found the loveliest pregnant woman in the world.Katriona was in a yellow dress that barely reached her knees.God, it felt so nice to see her wearing bright colors again.She was standing in front of our home… back in the North.When she saw me, concern crossed her eyes as she started explaining, “I’m sorry. I didn’t want to leave. I mean how could I? That’s still technically my house. I only wanted to visit this place with Willow for a moment. She teleported us here but we lost track of the time wandering around. I also met the other kids again. They requested me to play the guitar and before I knew it, we were having lunch and snacks together.“When I finally wanted to come back, Willow got dizzy and we had to stay longer. The omegas called the doctor and guess what? She’s pregnant!” Katriona’s eyes

(Alexander)“DID you see that, Xander? I won!”My smile widened when I saw Katriona’s eyes shone after beating a former warrior in chess. I loved to see her win and it was precisely because of this smile. Everyone in the room was just watching her as she stood up to greet me as if it was the most natural thing to do.I looked at the chessboard before smiling at her. I kissed her forehead. “You did great, love.”After Dane’s death more than a month ago, I thought I would see Katriona waver. She didn’t. She had only let herself mourn for a day and the next day; she started exploring knowing that her father wouldn’t like to see her wallow in misery.She drove around the city and in the nearby provinces all by herself. But of course, I was right there, following her secretly from afar. She had no problems still doing anything she wanted to do because she was naturally strong. It was just two weeks before she gave birth now but her little bump could pass as only five months.She traveled a

MY STEPS slowed down when I finally saw him again. Today, he was no longer in that custom-styled suit. His leather shoes had been replaced by sneakers and he looked untidy for the first time. Gone was his regal aura.He didn’t look like a king anymore.But a lost old man.He was rocking himself back and forth while holding his mate’s photo as he stared at the clear sky from the window.I had always doubted his wife. And I’d already rehearsed about what I would tell him after I was able to show him her true colors. But it turned out that there was no need for that anymore. Beatrice had shown him all her darkness and this man bravely and foolishly accepted that darkness.I no longer had to ask if his black heart was finally breaking at last and if he was feeling that same agony that he put me and my mother through.Because it was already showing. His eyes had become swollen with tears. And the photo he was holding was already soaked with those tears.Now that I think about it, maybe Aug

TO MY SURPRISE, there were more wolves who jumped down the gates and joined our pack. Half of them were the members of the Order. The others were the royal family’s warriors themselves. Alexander and I glanced at each other and nodded as we led the pack towards the mages.Clyde had blocked every spell thrown our way. The mages may possess strong powers but without them, their bodies were like those of humans. Compared to them, the shifters were still faster, especially me and my mate. And with Clyde blocking the attacks, we were able to charge forward.I sank my claws and teeth into the body of the first mage I saw and tore his arms apart before slamming him onto the wall before I proceeded to another mage.“Katriona!”I wouldn’t have stopped until I heard that voice.It was Rhodora.She stood a few meters away from me. But what caught my attention was the sword she was holding. Alexander had told me about it. It was the missing sword. The Legacy. The one from my ancestors.“No one hu

(Katriona)R HAD one mistake. She may have been successful in masking her scent from my wolf but she left a drop of her blood on the floor. She was injured when she came here to spy on me herself. Her latest victims must have tried fighting so hard for their lives before they died in her hands.When Alexander called Clyde over, the mage did not waste time to prove himself. He still felt guilty for failing to cure my father and he was too eager to offer help in any way possible that tracing the owner of the blood did not take him much time.He was also inspired more than ever now since Willow was back on his side. I heard that they got separated after Willow decided to marry the man her parents had chosen for her who was also a shifter. It happened years ago. She was so afraid that her parents would disown her that she chose them over her own heart. Unfortunately, her husband sold her to the high-ranking mages. Since then, her life had fallen apart.Now that they were back in each oth

Fifteen years ago…‘THAT’S ENOUGH, Johann! I’m begging you! Just hit me, okay? I would take it all! Please spare our son! Bradley is still too young for this!’ Beatrice screamed as she struggled to crawl on the floor to reach us.‘No, mom! I’ll be fine,’ I mouthed and tried to smile to reassure her despite the blood dripping in my head. ‘This will be over soon. Just please... look the other way for now. I can still take it.’Tears streamed down her cheeks. She could barely open her left eye after Johann made her his punching bag again last night. Her right cheek was swollen, she had cuts on her face, and bruises all over her body. Each time I would see her framed picture in the living room, the only picture she had before she married my father, I couldn’t believe that it was her.No one would be able to recognize her like this anymore.Beatrice looked thinner and smaller now. Her bright smile from the picture was replaced by sheer agony, by her tears that I see every waking day of my

(Alexander)I BREATHED sharply and braced myself for the worse. I could still remember how the King and the Order looked at me like I had gone insane when I rejected the crown. They must have been expecting some good news when they saw me in a flashy suit after a long time.They must have thought the suit was for them.Hell, no. It was exclusively for this interview.Duke, the oldest in my pack, happened to also be the only one among us who had a social media account. He saw the post, took a screenshot, and sent it to me last night. I shook my head. I could still imagine him grinning as he tried playing cupid for the first time.I never wanted to be a king. I only considered it when I thought Katriona wanted to be a queen.But she didn’t.Everyone has been failing to see it but she only wanted to be herself.She had lost herself for too long that there was no other role she wanted than to finally be the real Katriona Aldana. She was still in the middle of rediscovering herself, of re

I COULD not tell how long I had been running. I just knew I needed to escape for a while and calm myself because I didn’t want dad to see me have a meltdown in front of him once he woke up. I didn’t want him to worry again.I was sure he would already worry about breaking his promise to me again.I ran and stopped only when I was in the middle of the woods. I howled and howled until my throat burned, until the nearby wolves had awakened and howled with me.Clyde’s last words were still echoing in my head.‘We found two kinds of poison in your father’s body. I was only able to get rid of the one affecting his wolf. It was no doubt the poison your wolf had detected. The second poison, however, seemed like it had been in Dane’s system for years. It has already spread in different parts of his body. I’m sorry but you need to prepare yourself, Katriona.’‘How much time do you think we have left?’ I asked, my voice was shaking.Clyde sighed. ‘To be honest, I don’t think your father can make

HIS SHOULDERS shook.Dad had always been a proud man but tonight, he looked defeated, like somebody had taken all his hopes and dreams away. I clenched my hands.My expression hardened when I spoke, “What did I do this time, dad? Where did I go wrong again? I’ve manifested as the wolf you had always wanted me to become so why do you still look like that? Is it because of Chantal? Look at me and see who is here for you right now! See me for what I am! I am your only daughter! Chantal is never going to come back! I will not allow someone who tried to kill you to ever step foot into this estate again!”Dad looked at me and my stomach twisted at the agony in his eyes. “I had hurt you so much, didn’t I?”“Yes, you did.” My voice cracked. “And I want to hate you so much for it, dad.”He lowered his head. “I’m so sorry.”“I tried telling you about it, dad. You didn’t believe me. You lied to me. You said you would be my protector. You swore to be there to chase away the monsters under my bed.
