My Stepbrother 199

Mated To My Obsessive Stepbrother 

Chapter 199 

KESTER

The thought of not talking to Kasmine for two days plagued me. I could barely live a normal life. But I had to stay away from her before I’d do something we both would 

regret

I didn’t want to hurt her. So, this was for the best

– 

I made an Inquiry from the hospital and found out that she was truly there my curiosity. had got the better part of me, but that was as far as I let my curiosity take me. I refused 

to ask what she went there for. I’d want her to tell me herself

A part of me felt I wouldn’t like what her reason would be. But I still wanted to know

Babe?I heard a voice whisper to me while soft fingers grazed my thigh, pulling me back 

to the reality displayed in front of me

It was June

I had zoned out again. Fuck

I was there with them, but my attention was with someone else. Mine

1 lifted my gaze, and the dimly lit dining hall of the Mellorsestate came back into focus, the heavy scent of roasted meat and aged wine pressing against me

Across the long table, Alpha Mellors and Luna Shannon stared at me, their expressions painted with polite concern, while June eyed me to answer whatever question her father. had just asked, which I missed because I was mentally absent from the meeting

But I had missed it. Completely

You seem rather distracted, Alpha Kester, Mellors observed, his voice dry and raspy, no thanks to sickness and time. His thin lips twisted slightly while his pale eyes narrowed as 

he studied me

I straightened, forcing myself to focus. I felt embarrassed

My apologies, Alpha Mellors,I said, clearing my throat. I have a lot on my mind.” 

It wasn’t a lie

But it wasn’t the kind of excuse an Alpha should be giving

I hated thisbeing caught off guard, being seen as anything less than controlled, composed, and capable. And right now, I was radiating the exact opposite

Alpha Mellors pale eyes studied me. He leaned slightly forward, the candlelight emphasizing the deep lines on his face. Does this distraction of yours have anything to do with Karina’s return?” 

A flicker of irritation passed through me. He was prying, but it wasn’t unexpected. The Mellors were always watching and knowing

I exhaled quietly, keeping my expression composed. Somehow, it does.” 

Alpha Mellors nodded slowly as if piecing things together. Then he leaned back in his chair, his frail frame sinking into the highbacked seat. I know the people behind Karina. And they are the same ones behind the difficulties your business has been facing.” 

It wasn’t news. Mellors knew for certain

I heard that some of your investors are already considering pulling out,Luna Shannon said, Customer interest has declined. You’re losing trust. And once trust is gone, Kester, it’s nearly impossible to get it back

I said nothing

Because fuck, she wasn’t wrong

And hearing it laid out like this made my anger burn hotter

And beneath that anger was shame

I was an Alpha. A leader. And yet, my businessmy empirewas slipping through my fingers while I sat here, pretending to give a damn about a lunch meeting I didn’t even 

want to be at

It was supposed to be a dinner meeting, but I had it moved to lunch instead. The last

thing I wanted was to give June an excuse to insist I stay the night in their pact.. 

Mellors toolt a slow sip of his wine before speaking again, But don’t worry too much about it,he said with pride in his tone. June loves you, and I know she’ll make a fine Luna, while you will make a perfect Alpha King after me. His gaze met mine. Once you at least engaged, Till see what I can do to stabilize things for you.” 

Mellors was reminding me exactly how vulnerable I was

My jaw tightened, but I refused to let the frustration show. Anger wanitimit serve me he and mether would pride. I had walked into this meeting knowing what it meant, knowin 

what had to do. That didn’t make it any easier to swallow

I picked up my glass, rolling the stem between my fingers before talling a slow sip

Dune grip on my thigh tightened slightly. I felt her inhale besje me like she was holdi 

Then breath for my reaction

Il pt my face as unreadable as ever as I nodded, keeping my voice steady. I appreciate 

that, Alpha Mellors.” 

I think it was time I took Norlan’s advice

June exhaled softly, her fingers relaxing against my leg from the corner of my eye, I sa the faintest smile touch her lips as if my answer renemured her

II only she knew

Alpha Mellors set his glass down with a quier clinit, his fingers resting lightly against th 

rim. He watched me with a patience that felt disturbing

Now that we’ve come to an understanding, he broke the silence, I believe it’s time to: a date for the engagement party.” 

1 stilled, though I kept my expression until 

Right now?I asked, keeping my voice as even and as careful as I could

Mellors lifted a brow. Of course. This is as good a time as any.” 

My grip on my glass tightenei. He wasn’t just securing our agreementhe was putting

collar around my med and fastening the leash for good measure

June felt the tension in my body because I saw the way she moved uncomfortably from the comer off my eye. She was sitting beside me. She must have felt my bodyttense

And, as if thinking she was protecting me, she made to speak

Father 

Mellorsheild up a hand, silencing her before she could continue, Allow the young man t spell, honey,he said

A part of me couldn’t help but feel that Alpha Mellor didn’t like and that he was onl doing this for his daughter

Everyone knew how much he adored his daughter and how fardul go just to make her 

Thappy

Marrying me was all June’s idea. Left for Alpha Mellors, it pick someone else for her

breathed in slowly, controlling the burn of anger beneatiumy skin

He’s testing you. He’s waiting to see if you’ll push boat. My wolf said, and I nodded

I wouldn’t give him the satisfaction

But I also wouldn’t let him think he had complectly caged me

I set my glass down, tapping a finger lightly against the stem as if considering. Then, aft a pause, I said, August 23rd.”

My Stepbrother

Synopsis : My Stepbrother

Kasmine’s world shattered the night she witnessed her stepbrother, Kester Hamilton—the Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack—murder an innocent man in cold blood. What began as a normal evening in the woods turned into a nightmare that would haunt her forever. The man Kester killed was no threat; he had only been talking to Kasmine. Yet Kester justified the murder by claiming the man tried to force himself on her.

Trembling and terrified, Kasmine confronted him, refusing to believe his twisted explanation. But Kester’s demeanor remained disturbingly calm. He didn’t show an ounce of remorse. Instead, he scolded her for being dramatic and tried to drag her back to the party, as if nothing had happened. When she resisted, he unleashed his Alpha command—a power no wolf could defy. Under his control, Kasmine’s will crumbled, and she obeyed him like a puppet.

As she returned to the party—ironically, Kester’s girlfriend’s birthday celebration—Kasmine’s heart broke. The brother who once protected her now scared her more than anyone else.

Her mind drifted back to her childhood, to the days when Kester had been her hero. After her father’s death, her mother remarried Alpha Kade Hamilton, Kester’s father. At the time, Kester was fourteen and Kasmine was only seven. He took her under his wing, treating her like a precious little sister. He brought her gifts, defended her from bullies, and made her feel safe. To everyone around them, Kester was the perfect big brother.

But as Kasmine grew older, that “protectiveness” became something else—something dark and possessive. By the time she turned sixteen, Kester had started isolating her from others. He didn’t allow her to have male friends, and even her time with female friends was limited. He wanted her attention, her trust, and her presence—all to himself. It became suffocating.

Now, at twenty years old, Kasmine had no boyfriend and barely any social life. Every time she tried to rebel, Kester reminded her that she should wait for her fated mate when she turned twenty-one and got her wolf. Her parents saw his control as love and protection, never suspecting how toxic and obsessive it had become.

After witnessing the murder, Kasmine was emotionally destroyed. She couldn’t eat, sleep, or think straight. The image of the lifeless man haunted her. Luckily, she only had to see Kester on weekends, since he was busy running both his pack and his billion-dollar company—Zamford Technologies. But even from a distance, his control continued. He had bugged her phone and laptop, monitoring every message and call. There was no escaping his watchful eyes.

Trying to focus on her studies, Kasmine pushed herself to attend her final year of college. She was preparing for her internship, and for once, she felt hopeful. She had submitted three company choices, deliberately avoiding Zamford Technologies to stay away from Kester. Her best friend, Jake—a guy she secretly liked—had applied to the same companies. She dreamed of being placed in the same one as him. Maybe then, away from Kester’s shadow, she could experience normal life, maybe even love.

That morning, she rushed to campus, still hopeful about the internship results. At the school entrance, she met her best friend, Claire, who looked visibly upset. Claire confessed she had been posted to J&F Technologies. Her disappointment wasn’t about the company—it was about Kester. Claire had nursed a crush on him for years and had listed Zamford Technologies in hopes of working near him. But her wish had failed, and she’d lost her chance.

Trying to comfort her, Kasmine asked about her own posting. Strangely, Claire didn’t answer, avoiding her eyes. Confused but impatient, Kasmine dragged her to the information board. Her heart raced as she scanned the list, looking first for Jake’s name. He was placed at Plush Technologies—one of the options they’d chosen together.

Excited, she searched for her name next, praying to see it under the same company. But her excitement quickly turned to dread. Her hands trembled. Her breath caught in her throat. There, beside her name, was written: Zamford Technologies.

The world seemed to tilt around her.

It couldn’t be real. There had to be some mistake. How could she, of all people, end up at her stepbrother’s company—the very place she’d tried hardest to avoid? Panic rose in her chest as the realization sank in. Kester must have done this. Somehow, he had found a way to manipulate her placement, ensuring that even in her professional life, she couldn’t escape his grasp.

Her mind flashed back to his piercing green eyes, his dominating voice, the way he’d ordered her around after committing murder without remorse. Now, he would have full control over her again—for hours every day. There would be no hiding, no breathing space.

As she stood frozen before the board, Kasmine felt her fragile hope for freedom crumble. She had spent years yearning for the day she could make her own choices—turn twenty-one, find her fated mate, and escape Kester’s suffocating hold. But now, destiny—or rather, Kester’s manipulation—had pulled her right back into his world.

And deep down, she feared that this time, she might not make it out alive.

Themes and Tone:
“The Alpha’s Obsession” explores the darkness behind overprotective love, the trauma of control disguised as care, and the pain of being trapped by someone who claims to love you. The tone is tense, emotional, and suspenseful, building a deep sense of dread as Kasmine realizes that every path she takes leads her back to the same monster she once called “brother.”
