The first thing Draven felt was wrongness.

It hit him mid-sentence when he was giving his speech in another building... miles away from Violetta.

A sharp, gut-deep pull—violent and unmistakable.

Violetta… she was in danger. He could feel her fear through the bond which became strong because of her closeness to Asher.

His voice faltered for half a breath during the speech. No one noticed. No one ever noticed the moment a predator woke.

His fingers curled slowly at his side.

The bond screamed.

He didn’t finish the applause.

He left the building and called the guards. Gerald was ready with the car and he felt like his life was on the line.

“Hurry up, Gerald! Or It will be too late,” The strain in his voice made Gerald worried.

*****************

The room was dark.

Too dark.

Violetta’s back hit the wall, the impact knocking what little breath she had left from her lungs. Her hands pushed weakly against the man in front of her, her body heavy, unresponsive, traitorous under the drug flo

  • After Betrayal, I Married The Cursed Alpha King   Chapter 27: His Secret, His Wounds

    Violetta woke up screaming.Her body jolted upright, breath tearing out of her chest as if she had been dragged back into that dark room again—hands on her wrists, the smell of alcohol, the sound of a man’s voice dripping with cruelty.“No—! Please leave me…” She looked around frantically as if she wanted to escape this place. Arms wrapped around her instantly.“Asher,” she gasped, clutching at his shirt as if the world might vanish if she let go. Her nails dug into him, shaking, desperate.“I’m here,” he murmured, pulling her fully against him, one hand cradling the back of her head, the other rubbing slow, steady circles down her spine. “You’re safe. I’ve got you.” Her sobs came hard and broken, muffled against his chest. Her body trembled like it hadn’t realized yet that the danger was over.Asher closed his eyes.Every tear felt like a silver blade on his heart.He rocked her gently, pressing his lips to her hair again and again, whispering reassurances he wasn’t sure she could

  • After Betrayal, I Married The Cursed Alpha King   Chapter 26: Party Night

    The projector hummed softly as it came to life.A white screen descended at the front of the office floor, drawing everyone’s attention. Conversations died down, curiosity replacing judgment. Asher stood beside the senior, one hand tucked into his pocket, posture relaxed—but his presence commanded silence without effort.“Let’s put an end to the confusion,” Asher said calmly. “Display Violetta’s designs.”Violetta’s breath caught.She hadn’t expected this. Her fingers curled into the fabric of her sleeve as the first slide appeared.And then—Gasps.Her designs filled the screen with elegance and depth. Clean lines blended with intricate detailing, bold concepts softened by emotion. Every piece told a story—luxury without excess, innovation without arrogance.Whispers spread like wildfire.“This is… incredible.” “The detailing—did you see the layering?” “That’s competition-level work.”Violetta stood frozen, heart racing, cheeks warming as she felt eyes turn toward her—not with suspic

  • After Betrayal, I Married The Cursed Alpha King   Chapter 25: Confrontation

    The office floor went unnaturally quiet when Asher arrived.Not because he raised his voice. Not because he caused a scene.But because something about him shifted the air. Everyone knew about his power and authority and how much Alpha Draven gave value to his private guard. Even Gerald came after him, so it was better to respect his authority. He walked in with measured steps, his presence sharp and unyielding, eyes scanning the room until they locked onto one figure. Claudia.She froze.Asher stopped a few feet away from her, his expression calm—, but it was the kind of calm that came before a storm. No one was expecting him to visit the office today, so it was quite a surprise for everyone. “You,” he whispered while looking towards Claudia. His anger made her shudder. Claudia swallowed. “I… I was just—”“Enough,” Asher interrupted, his tone slicing clean through the space. “You will not speak unless I ask you to.”Every head turned. Violetta stood near the washroom entrance,

  • After Betrayal, I Married The Cursed Alpha King   Chapter 24: Disaster

    Violetta walked into the office that morning with a smile she hadn’t worn in a long time.It wasn’t bright or attention-seeking. It didn’t demand to be noticed.It was quiet.The kind of smile that came from surviving something painful and still choosing to show up. She knew her designs were awesome and she would surely win this round against Claudia.Her bag was heavier than usual, filled with neatly arranged designs, drafts protected carefully between folders. Every step she took felt lighter than the weight she carried, like hope itself was helping her move forward.She didn’t notice Claudia at first.But Claudia noticed her immediately.The smile on Violetta’s face hit like a slap.Jealousy curled sharp and sudden in Claudia’s chest, burning hotter when she saw a few coworkers glance up—curious, assessing, impressed. Not pitying. Not dismissive.InterestedVioletta reached her desk and placed her bag down carefully. Her fingers trembled slightly as she pulled out the designs—not f

  • After Betrayal, I Married The Cursed Alpha King   Chapter 23: Little Help 

    The house stayed awake even when Violetta couldn’t.Paper covered the dining table, spilled onto the floor, and was stacked on the couch. Half-drawn silhouettes, fabric swatches, color palettes taped together with trembling fingers. She had been working for hours—erasing, redrawing, starting over—her mind racing faster than her body could keep up with.“You have to win this challenge, Vee. You have to show them what you are capable of,” She said to herself and put the empty cup of coffee on the table, but still a lot of work was left. By midnight, her eyes burned.By one, her hands shook.She told herself just one more sketch, but exhaustion won.Her head tipped forward slowly, cheek resting against a spread of papers, pencil slipping from her fingers as sleep claimed her without mercy.The room was quiet when Draven stepped in. He paused the moment he saw her.Mask still on, he stood there longer than he meant to—watching her breathe softly, lashes resting against flushed skin, hai
