My Stepbrother 333

Chapter 333 

KESTER. 

The sirens wailed like tortured spirits as we barreled into the hospital’s emergency bay. Medics burst out of the doors like ants from a disturbed nest, yanking open the van and hauling Norlan onto a stretcher. 

Fuck. 

Everything was falling apart. 

I was drenched in my best friend’s blood. And the worst part? He sti wasn’t healing. Not even a twitch of regeneration. It felt like the world had forgotten he was a damn wolf! 

That scared me mor 

than I wanted to admit… 

As soon as we crossed the hospital threshold, Norlan was rushed into the emergency ward. The doors slammed shut in my face, locking me out of the one person I couldn’t afford to lose right now. 

I felt my world crumbling rapidly. 

I put my hands into my pocket to pull out my phone and check where Kasmine was, hoping against all odds that she was still alive. But my fingers scraped against nothing. 

Shit! 

I left it back in my car. 

When the ambulance arrived, I had to sit with Norlan at the back of the van, leaving my car back at the accident scene. 

I spun around and made for the reception, barely breathing. 

“Excuse me. Kasmine Hamilton. She was admitted here,” I rushed. 

One of them looked through the system in front of her for a second and shook her head. 

“No, Alpha. Ms. Kasmine wasn’t admitted here. We…” I didn’t let her finish. I cursed under my breath and left them in a hurry. 

I had to find her myself. Going back to get my car was going to take a longer time than trying to find her with her scent. 

She couldn’t be dead. Otherwise, I could have felt it, right? Something in me should have died or snapped or… Just something! should have felt that pain, the emotional collapse; my bones should have gone cold… I should have felt that irreplaceable void… But I didn’t feel any of that. 

“That should be a good sign, right? Zeth?” I asked my wolf, looking for any shred of hope to hold on to. 

Zeth was silent. 

It was a huge hospital with sterile white walls and endless halls that felt more like a maze, but I was already going through every corner there was and sniffing the air with my whole concentration. 

Suddenly, I saw a tag hung in front of a ward. 

EMERGENCY WARD 3. 

1/3 

Chapter 333 

I felt something deep inside my bones as soon as I rounded the corner into the ward. 

It felt like a pull I couldn’t explain. It was as if a part of me I didn’t know had been asleep had just opened its eyes. 

didn’t think. My feet moved before my mind could catch up. 

The closer I got, the stronger the pull I felt. 

It was a gut–twisting ache that said she was near. 

Then, just like a dream, I caught her scent. I almost staggered. 

But why the fuck was her scent here? 

It wasn’t coming from the ER. 

It was coming from the hall just around the corner. A few rooms away. 

The scent was faint enough to make my heart stop mid–beat, but fuck it. I moved faster with all my senses on high alert. 

I heard a woman’s voice, and I recognized it. She was sobbing so hard like she was in unexplainable pain. 

Fuck 

My whole fucking body knew who it was. 

And it felt like the ground gave out beneath me. 

My heart rammed against my ribs like it was trying to tear itself out. I stumbled forward, the sound of her sobbing cracking open every control I had left. 

The hallway opened up into a small alcove just before the ward, and saw two figures a man and a lady – standing with their 

backs to me. 

Something in me cracked, and I stopped breathing. My vision blurred. I couldn’t even feel my feet. 

Fucking Cole. I’ll rip his heart out! 

I closed the distance between us in a few long strides, reached for the woman, turned her into me, and wrapped my arms around her. 

with a force I didn’t know I had. 

I buried her in my chest like I was scared she’d disappear if I loosened my grip for even a second. 

She gasped softly, her hands gripping my shirt. 

I shut my eyes, Inhaling all of her like an addict starved of his addiction. 

“Fuck, baby, I thought I lost you.” 

Kasmine was crying none stop.. 

Her whole body trembled in my arms like she’d fall apart if I let go. Her face was buried in my chest, wet with tears and gasps. And all I could think about was the baby’s safety with the way she was crying. I hope it doesn’t hurt the baby.

Chapter 333 

I held her tighter. 

She was alive. 

She was fucking alive. 

And yet, she was crying like someone had just ripped her soul out. 

God. What the fuck happened? 

My jaw clenched hard as I turned my glare to Cole, who was standing stiff like a damn statue behind her. I didn’t even care that Kasmine was still in my arms when I snapped. 

“What the fuck, Cole!” My rage bled through my tone like wildfire. “Why weren’t you answering your fucking phone? You got a death wish?” 

Cole immediately bored his head, “I’m sorry, Alpha. I lost it during the whole commotion.” 

Lost it? That was the dumbest excuse I’d ever heard. 

I stared him down, breathing hard and holding back the storm building inside me. 

I wanted to rip someone apart. 

“What the fuck happened?” I shifted my stance, still cradling Kasmine close, running soothing fingers through her hair as she cried quietly against my chest. 

“There was a man,” he said quickly, avoiding my eyes. “He… he shot at Claire. She’s in the ER now.” 

That was it? 

That was the whole story? 

That’s how he thought he was going to explain the shitstorm I just walked into? 

My teeth ground together. 

“And how the fuck did Kasmine end up with Claire? Where the hell did this even happen?” I barked, my tone climbing again. “Speak, damn it! Where exactly? What time? Who did you see? Did you check the area? Did you fucking think?” I snapped. 

I couldn’t hold it in anymore. 

“Fuck it, Cole! Are you dumb? I need fucking details!”
