Mated to My Fiancé’s Alpha King Brother

Chapter

Damien’s POV 1

I shoved through the crowd like a man possessed.

Bodies pressed against me from all sides. Drunk. High on violence. Too fucking slow to move.

“Get out of my way!” The words came out as a growl. My Alpha command bleeding through even though these humans wouldn’t

understand it.

Some instinct made them scatter anyway.

Good. Smart. Because I wasn’t stopping for anyone.

I hit the stage at a run. Vaulted over the ropes. My feet hit the blood–slicked canvas and nearly slipped.

Her blood. That was her blood on the canvas.

My vision went red.

The crowd noise shifted. Confusion. Shock. Outrage.

“Hey! You can’t-”

“Security! Someone get security!”

“Who the fuck is that guy?”

I didn’t hear the rest. Didn’t care. Every cell in my body was screaming one thing.

*Find her. Find our mate. NOW.*

The exit she’d gone through was to my left. A narrow door marked “AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY” in faded red letters.

I grabbed the handle. Locked.

The metal crumpled in my grip like tissue paper. The entire lock mechanism tore free from the doorframe. The door swung open with a

screech of tortured hinges.

The hallway beyond was dim. Narrow. Claustrophobic. The kind of place my mate had been living in for three fucking years.

The smell hit me immediately. Blood. Sweat. Fear. Desperation. The stench of violence and broken dreams.

My chest cracked open. Every emotion I’d been holding back for three years came flooding through at once.

Relief. Rage, Joy. Terror. Love so fierce it physically hurt.

My wolf surged. Clawing at my insides. Demanding to break free.

*Let me out! Our mate needs us!*
