My fingers tug at his shirt, the fabric tearing under my grip, and I feel Eric’s hands on my shoulders, his lips moving lower, trailing fire across my skin. It’s raw, consuming, the kind of heat that could burn this whole pack house down. 

I want more—more of Rick, more of Eric, more of this bond that makes us whole, even without her.

“What the hell are you guys doing?” a voice snaps, sharp and raw, cutting through the haze.

I freeze, my lips still on Rick’s, my hands gripping his hair. I turn my head, slow and deliberate, and there she is—Lia, standing in the doorway, her eyes wide with shock, her face a storm of fury and something else, something that makes my wolf howl. 

My smirk widens, slow and deliberate, as I meet her gaze, letting her see every bit of the monster she hates.

Chapter 51: Blood and Betrayal 🐺🔥🌙


I stand frozen, my heart pounding so loud it echoes in my ears, as this guy walks into the hall.


 His cold voice cuts through the air like a sharp blade, slicing everything quiet. He moves with steady steps, slow but heavy, like he owns the place already. 


When he stops right in front of me, his eyes glint with something hard and sharp, like steel, like he's already sizing me up, measuring me, judging me.


I keep my chin high, staring back, my chest tight but my voice steady, sharp enough to bite. "Who the hell are you?"


He laughs. It's not a warm laugh, not a laugh that carries joy. It's low and mocking, curling in the air like smoke. The sound makes my skin crawl, like something poisonous is slipping under my skin.


 His smirk grows wide, but his eyes stay cold, colder than ice. "You're pretty dumb, huh?" he says, his voice smooth but dripping with venom. "I'm your brother, Lia."
