Three Alpha Bikers Wants An Open Marriage

Chapter 146: Chapter 146

Gunnar’s POV

I did not remember thinking.

I only remembered rage.

The moment I reached Sebastian’s quarters, I did not slow down, I did not knock, I did not care who was inside with him. I lifted my leg and kicked the door open so hard it slammed against the wall with a loud crack.

The sound echoed through the room.

He was there. Standing. Calm.

With a man I did not recognize beside him.

That alone made my anger rise even more.

I did not speak. I did not ask questions.

I moved.

My fist connected with his face before he could even react, the impact sharp and heavy as his head snapped to the side. He stumbled back, but I did not give him time to recover.

I grabbed him by his collar and slammed him hard against the wall.

"Why?!" I shouted, my voice filled with raw anger as I hit him again.

And again.

Each punch landed harder than the last, blood already spilling from his mouth as he tried to steady himself.

"Why the hell did you do that?!" I roared, gripping him tighter.

He coughed, blood spilling from his lips, but I did not stop.

"Killing her parents wasn’t enough for you?!" I hit him again, my vision already blurring from rage.

"And that monster you worked with!" I added, striking him once more. "And now you’ve finally taken her too?!"

My chest burned. My mind was not even clear anymore.

All I saw was him. All I felt was anger.

Before I could land another hit—

Hands grabbed me. Several of them. Guards.

They rushed in quickly, pulling me back, restraining my arms as I struggled against them. free𝑤ebnovel.com

"Let me go!" I growled, trying to break free.

But there were too many of them. They held me tight.

Sebastian slowly straightened, wiping the blood from his mouth as he stood there like nothing had happened.

Then—

He laughed.

A low, amused laugh that made my blood boil even more.

"Did you really believe I killed her?" he asked calmly.

I lunged forward again, but the guards held me back firmly.

"You think this is funny?!" I snapped.

But he didn’t answer immediately.

Instead, he looked at the guards.

"Leave us," he said.

They hesitated.

"All of you," he added firmly.

One by one, they released me and stepped back before leaving the room completely. The door closed behind them, leaving just the two of us.

The air between us felt heavy. Dangerous.

He looked at me for a moment.

Then he spoke."I didn’t kill her," he said.

My face twisted instantly. "That’s a lie," I snapped.

He shook his head slightly.

"At least not in the way you think," he added.

That only made it worse.

"What does that even mean?" I demanded.

He stepped forward slightly, his expression calm again.

"If I wanted her dead," he said, "I wouldn’t need bandits to do it."

I clenched my fists tightly.

"She was just a woman," he continued. "An ordinary one at that. Do you really think I would make such a careless move?"

My jaw tightened.

"I don’t make childish moves," he muttered bitterly.

"Exactly," he said.

Silence filled the room for a moment.

Then he continued.

"I was the one who brought her here," he said. "I was the one who helped her when she had nowhere else to go after her parents was eliminated. I watched her grow Gunnar."

His gaze stayed steady on mine."Why would I suddenly decide to kill her now?"

I didn’t answer immediately.

Because part of what he said—

Made sense.

But I didn’t want to accept it.

"You could do it because of the prophecy," I said finally.

His lips curved into a small smile.

"That prophecy means nothing to me," he replied.

My fists clenched again.

"Then why is she dead?" I demanded.

He looked at me carefully.

Then he said something that made everything feel wrong.

"She knew she was going to die today."

I froze."What?" I asked slowly.

"She insisted on leaving," he continued. "Even when you advised against it, didn’t she?"

My chest tightened.

"She knew her time was up," he added.

"That doesn’t make sense," I said.

He didn’t stop."She planned it," he said calmly.

The words hit hard.

"What?" I snapped.

"She arranged the attack," he said.

My mind went blank.

"That’s impossible," I said immediately.

"Is it?" he asked.

"Why would she do that to herself?" I demanded.

"She needed it to look like an attack," he replied.

"Why?!" I shouted.

But before he could answer—

Something sharp pierced into my neck.

My body froze instantly."What—"

My vision blurred.

Everything around me started fading.

And then—

Darkness.

I snapped my eyes open.

My chest rose sharply as I took in a deep breath, my body reacting before my mind could catch up.

Everything felt different.

The air. The smell. The weight of my body. ƒrēewebnovel.com

I looked around quickly.

I was back.

In my room.

My gaze landed on Caden first.

He stood nearby, watching me closely.

Then my eyes shifted.

And I saw her.

Summer.

The moment she saw me awake, her eyes widened and she screamed softly.

"Daddy!"

She ran toward me immediately and threw her arms around me tightly.

I caught her without thinking, holding her close as her small body pressed against mine.

For a second—

Something inside me reacted.

Her scent.

Her blood.

It hit me hard, it’s just like Carian’s.

My instincts surged suddenly, something dark rising from deep inside me, something that made my grip tighten slightly.

My teeth pressed together as I forced it down.

No.

Not her.

Never her.

I shut it down immediately, pushing that feeling away as I wrapped my arms around her properly.

"I’m here," I said, my voice low.

She held onto me tightly.

"I was scared," she whispered.

I placed a hand on her head gently.

"I’m fine," I said.

Even though I wasn’t. Even though everything inside me felt unstable.

Then suddenly—

The door burst open.

I looked up.

And she walked in.

Riley.

She stepped into the room slowly, her eyes meeting mine as she said "I’m here to feed you"
