All Chapters of My Stepbrother, My Mate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

****Xavier*****“Are you ashamed of me?” I asked, bearing my vulnerability, with tears forming in my eyes.“Never.” Xavier’s words trailed off as he reached out to hold my hand, his own eyes filled with emotion. “I just want to protect you and us from any potential threats,” he added softly.“You put your trust in me, and I promise to always stand by your side, no matter what challenges come our way,” he assured me, squeezing my hand gently. “Just for the time being, don’t let anyone know that you are mate, and let me handle any potential dangers that may arise.”I listen to his words carefully, feeling a sense of comfort and security wash over me. “If that is what you believe is best for us, then I will trust your judgment,” I replied, putting my trust in him even after the trauma I had been through because of his action, but deep down, I couldn’t shake the feeling of unease about keeping our relationship a secret.Xavier is an Alpha, and his being mated with an Omega like me, who to

*****Xavier*****I stare at Henry as he sleeps peacefully, his features softening in slumber. With his head resting on my chest and arms wrapped around me, I feel a sense of contentment and longing for the moments we can steal together in the midst of our chaotic lives. Our love may be risky, but it’s worth every moment of joy and connection we find in each other.I brushed his hair, with fingers gliding from his silky forehead down to his cheek, savoring the intimacy of the moment. As the sun began to rise, his face came alive with the soft light, casting a gentle glow on his peaceful expression. How long has it been since we’ve been able to just be in each other’s arms like this? I never want this moment to end.When Henry was a kid, he always walked quietly inside and slid into covers without making a sound, as if he were trying to escape the world around him. His quiet demeanor was a stark contrast to his boisterous personality during the day. And early morning he used to quietly

*****Henry****"I am not annoucing our relationship as mates, but rather my upcoming wedding to someone else," Xavier clarified, his eyes filled with regret and sadness."What?" Did I hear him right ? My mind reeled with shock and disbelief at his unexpected revelation. "I don't think I heard you correctly. You're getting mated to someone else?" My heart sank as the reality of the situation began to sink in.Xavier hides his face from me, unable to meet my gaze. "Look at me, Xavier," I pleaded, feeling a mix of emotions swirling inside me. "I'm sorry," he whispered, his voice barely audible as he finally looked up to meet my eyes, filled with unspoken apologies.Sorry, it's just what he can say, but his actions spoke louder than words. The weight of his betrayal settled heavily on my shoulders, crushing me with a sense of loss and heartbreak. "You are never to be tortured," I said, my voice trembling with hurt and anger. "The kiss, the sweet words, the care everything was a lie, wasn'

I jumped out of the window and changed into my wolf, running towards the healer's den. My mind focused on the safety of my pack and my mate . The urgency of the situation propelled me forward, my instincts as Alpha kicking in to ensure the protection of my pack at all costs. As I raced towards the healer's den, my heart pounded with determination and concern for those under my care.When I reached there with my Beta, there weren't any rougues around , but the healer was tending to a few injured pack members. I immediately shifted back into human form and walked towards my Gamma Raymord, who has his arm bleeding heavily. "What happened?" I asked, my voice filled with worry as I inspected the wound. Raymord grimaced in pain. "The Rogues entered the barders; no one knows how they have been so inside our territory for so long without being detected," he explained while applying pressure to his wound. "And where are Rogues now?" I asked, taking a first aid kit and beginning to clean and dr

****Xavier*****“Do you understand? What am I trying to say?” I sat staring at Ruby, who was sitting in front of me with a puzzled expression on her face. I could tell she was struggling to grasp the concept I was explaining.“You want me to act as your mate?” She asks, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.I nodded my head in agreement, realizing that I needed to find a different way to explain the situation to her in order for her to fully comprehend my request. “Yes, exactly. I need you to play the role of my mate in front of all the pack members.”Ruby’s eyes widened in surprise, and she took a moment to process my words before responding. “But I don’t understand why you want me to act as your mate, Alpha.” She questioned, clearly still puzzled by my command.I took a deep breath as Henry’s face came to mind, his smile flashing before me. All this to protect him.“You shouldn’t bother with the details, Ruby. Do as I say, and I will help find your brother.” I said, brushing off the q
