Once Rejected: A Slave To My Alpha Stepbrothers
I thought running from the mate who used me as a pawn and rejected me would be the end of my cruel fate.
I was wrong.
I ran straight into a pack that didn't just hate me, but also wanted me dead.
My alpha stepbrothers: Quin, Rio, and Hunter.
They're called the Three Devils: dangerous, wild, and untamed.
Quin wants to claim my rut. Rio wants to mark me. And Hunter? He's ready to burn the world just to make me his.
But the Moon Goddess doesn't play fair. Pack laws don't bend...not even for Alphas.
And now we're trapped in a web of fate that will either bind us together or tear us apart completely.
This is a dangerous game, and I dread who the winner will be: the feral alpha, the biker president, or the sex god?

Chapter 10
Veil.
It's Emma, mounting and riding...
My eyes narrow further just so I can see the face of the man beneath her. The moment I do, my spine curdles.
Rio.
The pulse quickens in my veins as I feel myself floating, the shock reeling fast through me.
I hold onto the wall for support as heavy drumbeats take residence in my heart.
She's stark naked, the buttery light of the lantern on the nightstand casting a warm glow on her skin.
Emma's hips move in rhythm, her pussy enveloping Rio's cock in a ballad of lust. The staccato beats of their sex bouncing into the hallway.
I'm too shocked to move away. Too flustered to cut my gaze from them.
Emma and Rio are an item?
As if trying to clear my doubts, Emma moans aloud. "Yes, hubby. Goddess...hmmm,"
That's when it hits me square on the jaw: her husband is my stepbrother.
For some reason, bitterness surges through me, and I taste bile in my mouth.
Yes, I'm never on good terms with Rio, but seeing him married to the girl who was once my best friend makes my heart ache.
Why did he choose her of all people? What's the story behind their union?
Her naughty words drag my attention back to them. She's openly praising Rio's bed skills, telling him she'd trade anything and anyone to be the only woman he ever gets to touch.
Rio doesn't speak. His face is blank, chest rising and falling rhythmically as he watches her bounce over him like a whore.
He looks mentally distant, like he has something else bothering him. The only sign that he feels what she's doing to him is the small arcs his thumbs are drawing over her ass cheeks.
My teeth grit watching them as something burns inside me.
Why am I pained seeing this?
Or rangles my lungs and drains what color that's left on my body.
She tweaks his nipples, coaxing them until they become turgid.
It makes Rio hiss, his eyes shutting briefly until Emma pulls her hands away.
She bunches her long locks with both hands, hiking them up, her hips moving in a snake-like motion over Rio's dick.
I see it, the swimmers dribbling from her cunt and drenching Rio's length.
It stirs wet sounds in the air.
Her moves become sloppy, the tautness of her body shows how much she's soaked in pleasure.
When the dick mistakenly slips from her cunt, and I catch a glimpse of it, a gasp tears from my mouth.
"Goddess!"
I intend for it to be a whisper, but unfortunately, it's audible. Loud.
My pulse halts, Rio's molten dark eyes swing to the door, momentarily catching mine, but I duck quickly.
"Who's there?" Emma's voice resounds, gritty and coarse from the strain of her endless moans.
The bed frame whirrs, and it tells me she's stood up.
Oh, seven seas!
I'm in trouble.
Thoughts ping through my mind, and I look for the nearest hideout as her feet pad over the floor, the closer she advances to the door.
I rush to the table a few feet away, the one crowned with beaded flower vases, and slip beneath it, yanking the hem of my skirt jutting out of my hideout into my thighs.
"I heard someone's voice," Emma says to Rio. "I think someone was watching us, hubby."
Rio's response comes, but it's faint; I barely heard it. "....but I didn't hear it. It could be your mind making it up."
Emma sighs. "I guess so." There's a smile in her voice. "Don't mind me, let's continue where we stopped."
She slams the door shut, and a giggle reverberates from the door before it morphs into a deep moan.
I take a breather, clutching at my racing heart.
Dr. Eliza's words rattle through me.
Don't do anything that'll make my heartbeat spike, I recite, feeling it beating like the drums of hell.
I'm going to have a hard time complying with her orders.
I wet my parched throat and slip out from beneath the table.
I scan the empty hallway, glad no one saw me watching them. Now that my position in the pack has deteriorated, I have to tread carefully.
I saunter past their bedroom door, down to mine.
I click the door shut and perch my back over it until I slide to the floor.
So many things changed since my disappearance from the pack.
I lost my mother.
My best friends turned against me, with Emma married to Rio.
What else happened that I'm yet to find out?
I look through the window at the starry night, crickets chirping and breaking the quiet ambiance of my bedroom.
Unbidden, I remember them, Emma fucking Rio.
His blank face. His nonchalance.
His...cock.
Goodness me...
I didn't see it up close, but it looks...beautiful and meaty.
The lick of hunger down my spine makes my eyes widen.
Wild thoughts and imagination spin through me.
How does he taste?
The way Emma was moaning...
Goodness, Veil, get a fucking grip on your thoughts!
This is Emma's husband you're thinking about! My rational mind howls, but that irrational side mocks it.
He's Emma's husband, but he's my stepbrother. So, before Emma came into the picture, I was already in it.
"Shit! I'm beginning to think like a hussy." I bite down on my lip, trying to distract myself.
Dr. Eliza's suggestion comes to my mind– masturbation.
Even though the lick of hunger I felt just moments ago is gone, I still want to give it a try.
I part my thighs, wincing at the old marks on them, and slide my panties aside.
I touch myself, and I'm not surprised to realize I'm dry. Totally.
The touch alone hurts me.
Before I can get a proper scissor on my clit with my fingers, the boulder of pain from earlier returns.
A sharp cry tears from my lips. Fire blazes through me, snapping my breath.
I pull my hand away, begging the goddess to take the pain away while I writhe on the floor.
This isn't going to stop.
This pain.
I manage to waddle to the bed, and as I slump into it, I force myself to sleep. Maybe that'll push the pain away.
Unfortunately, it doesn't. It follows me into the dreamland.
__
It's better now. The worst of the pain has ebbed, and I try to sleep in more, only for the hummingbird's song on my window to wake me up.
A hiss tears from the depth of my mouth.
I hate mornings. That bitch always comes with a reminder of my unhealthy condition.
"When do you plan to stop working against me?" I bitch to the morning sun, kissing my skin.
Succumbing to my reality, I prop my eyes open, watching the ceiling beams.
And I hear it, the snicking sound coming across the bed.
Slowly, I spin my eyes there, and my blood runs cold.
Sitting on the couch with his legs crossed while he rolls the hands of the broken alarm clock is...
Rio.
He's dressed in a pristine white shirt and black pants, looking stylish yet simple.
The rolled sleeves of his shirt reveal his muscly arms.
I swallow loudly, taking him in.
He catches my gaze through his black sunglasses, and slowly, he peels them off his face.
Dark hazel eyes pierce me, judging.
I hope it's not what I'm thinking it is?
"Is sleeping talking your forte? Or is it snooping on couples who are having sex that's your forte, stepsister?" He drawls, pinning his elbows on his knees to support his jaw as he narrows his eyes on me.
Tbc.

Top DEA agent Kaitlynn Bruce woke up to a heavy, chemical lethargy, only to realize she was trapped in the body of a weak, abused war widow.
Before she could even process her new reality, she heard her sister-in-law counting cash, selling her unconscious body to a local thug for a measly two hundred dollars.
The thug dragged her new seven-year-old son, Cason, into the bedroom.
"Mommy!"
When the boy reached out, the man brutally kicked his small body into a wooden doorframe, leaving him gasping and bleeding on the floor.
Memories flooded Kaitlynn's mind. Her predecessor was a pathetic doormat whose husband's military pension had been bled dry by these greedy in-laws, leaving her children to starve and suffer endless abuse.
But as Kaitlynn looked at the bleeding boy's dark, unnervingly alert eyes, a chilling piece of DEA intelligence clicked in her mind.
Cason Richmond.
The name, the town, the abusive aunt—it all matched the classified files of the "Director of the Hive," the most ruthless and feared cartel puppet master in the criminal underworld.
How could this battered, starving child be destined to become the ultimate monster she used to hunt?
The original widow's tragic death was supposed to be the catalyst that pushed this boy into total darkness.
But Kaitlynn Bruce was not a victim.
Adrenaline burning through the drugs, she cracked the thug's neck with a brass lamp and choked the sister-in-law against the wall.
Looking down at the boy who was supposed to become a global nightmare, she made a vow. She was going to rewrite his script, even if she had to burn the whole world down to do it.

Serena would do anything to uncover the death of her parents, including sleeping with the most dangerous man in New York, Nero DeLuca. And he knows this, so he strings her along so he can see how far she's willing to go.
***
"Get on your knees," Nero said.
"Excuse me-"
"You're my submissive, and you exist for the sole purpose of my pleasure. I don't tolerate defiance. When I say get on your knees, you get on your knees."
"Yes," I replied as I got on my knees, hating how much his commanding tone turned me on.
He put his finger under my chin and lifted it so I could look at him.
"Yes, what?"
"Yes, sir."
"Good girl. Now get on the bed and show me that beautiful cunt. I want to see what it looks like before I destroy it with my cock. Tonight, the whole of New York will know you belong to me. I'll not take anything less than you screaming my name, and by the time I'm done with you, you'll feel me between your legs for a week."

I spent a year scrubbing floors in my fiancé’s club, hiding my identity as the daughter of the Capo dei Capi.
I needed to know if Connor Bishop was a King worth merging empires with, or just a puppet.
The answer came walking in wearing a neon pink dress.
Jaden Juarez, a civilian he was infatuated with, didn't just treat me like a servant; she deliberately poured scalding espresso over my hand because I refused to be her valet.
The pain was blinding, my skin blistering instantly.
I video-called Connor, showing him the burn, expecting him to enforce the code of our world.
Instead, seeing his investors watching, he panicked.
He chose to sacrifice me to save face.
"Get on your knees," he roared through the speaker. "Beg her pardon. Show her the respect she deserves."
He wanted the daughter of the most dangerous man on the East Coast to kneel to his mistress.
He thought he was showing strength.
He didn't realize he was looking at a woman who could burn his entire world to ash with a single phone call.
I didn't cry. I didn't beg.
I simply hung up the phone and locked the kitchen doors.
Then, I dialed the one number everyone in the underworld feared.
"Dad," I said, my voice cold as steel. "Code Black. Bring the papers."
"And send the wolves."
