My Alpha Stepbrother is My Bully (Nevaeh) novel Chapter 3

3. She is my name and now my stepsister

KAEL

It’s been a year already, a year since I found out that Nevaeh was my mate.

She was seated right next to me at the dinner table and it took almost everything in me to keep myself under control because my wolf was finding it difficult to control himself around her.

But it had also been a year since that incident with Travis happened, since I saved her from the asshole that had been eager to devour her when she passed out at the school’s party. A reality that she would never find out because I would rather die than admit to anyone that she was mine.

Travis was my bestfriend and I could still hear him in my ears, telling me how good she tasted when he had fucked her right there in the school’s janitor closet because according to him, Nevaeh was Frostmoor’s Whore. The lowly omega that went around sleeping with everyone and everything.

My fists clenched tightly underneath the table and a low growl slipped from my wolf at the mere thought of it. The fact that she had let those bastards touch her infuriated me every single time.

How could she be so dumb?

It was one thing to be weak but an Alpha having a whore for a mate was not something I had planned for myself so I hid that truth from everyone… including myself.

It became a broken part of me that I carried around and even though it was beginning to get so difficult to ignore it, I hatched a plan that was going to make things so much better and that was to make her feel my pain, my rage at what she had done.

Teasing her at first was something I enjoyed so when the whole school joined in, a part of me was relieved that no one would be interested in her anymore, no one would want to touch the omega girl that was constantly being ridiculed by the whole school, but then…

“Hey listen man, if you’re ever interested in her, just let me know. I could make her wait back after school so you can get a taste of her.” Travis had joked one day in the locker room, just before a big game while he explained to the other guys how good it felt every single time he slept with her.

I barged out of the room that day and during the game, I had intentionally collided so hard against Travis that I almost made him break a few bones on the ice while making it look like it was a mistake.

We lost the match and I had almost killed my best friend because of a girl that wasn’t even worth it but after that day, I swore to myself that I would never give a fuck about Nevaeh again.

I swore to myself that I would rather take the secret of her being my mate to my grave than claim her, not after all this.

“Kael, can you help Navaeh pick out some of the decorations after dinner?” Dad’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I became aware of my surroundings again.

I nodded, unable to speak because for some reason, even after I had swore never to acknowledge our mate bond, my eyes kept drifting back down to the sight of her smooth long legs underneath the table. Her skin glowed softly and seeing her like this for the first time since I’d known her made me feel a different kind of way.

Absent-mindedly, I reached out and touched her bare skin, my hands sliding over it in a manner that made my wolf growl in satisfaction.

She flinched and her eyes widened in horror. But what sent a painful jab through my chest was the fact that she tried to move away from my touch, the look on her face told me just how much she hated me touching her.

“Get out!” I growled without even turning to look at her and the way she flinched every single time she heard my voice twisted my gut in a way that I utterly despised.

Why was I even bothered about her? She didn’t mean anything to me.

“I…”

“Just because we’re step siblings doesn’t mean anything is going to change. You’re still the lowly omega to me and if you dare breathe a word to anyone in school about this, I’ll kill you myself.” I threatened and didn’t bother to see if my threat had any effect on her because I knew just how much she was afraid of me.

I’d seen that look so many times in her eyes while she whored herself out to everyone else.

“Now, get lost!” I snapped and she scurried out as fast as she could before I drove off, fighting against every nerve in my body that wanted me to glance back at her in the rear view mirror.
