Elena

I spotted that piece of shit—Henry—standing beside the garden bench with my father, a porcelain teacup balanced between his fingers.

For a second, I almost laughed.

Someone had clearly tried to put him back together.

His dark hair had been combed neatly into place, every strand arranged with pathetic precision, as if a tidy appearance could distract from the ugly reality underneath. It couldn't.

Purple bruises stained one side of his face. A split cut disappeared beneath the edge of a ban

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Speechless

    JaxSilence fell across the room, heavy and uncomfortable, before I finally decided to open my mouth. My brother seemed to be observing the entire situation a little too closely, as if he was trying to piece together something I hadn't even noticed yet."Does this come as a shock to you, dear sister?" I scoffed, hiding whatever the hell was moving inside my chest because Monica's surprise was far too telling. "You never expected we'd find that out?"She took a restless step closer, her eyes darting between Ashton and me. "When did you guys find out?""I don't see how that's any of your concern, Monica," Ashton answered, his voice low and controlled, but I knew him well enough to recognize that wasn't what he actually wanted to say. He was testing the waters, watching her reaction, trying to figure out what she knew.But why?"You knew Gabrielle was the killer all along?" Monica's voice cracked as she looked between us, disbelief and devastation colliding in her eyes. "And I was out he

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    You knew?

    JaxIt’d be a lie to say Monica’s tears didn’t fool me for the first few seconds. They looked real enough, at least at first glance, and perhaps a small, pathetic part of me had been waiting for years to see some remorse in her eyes. But I knew better than my brother did, or at least I liked to think I did. So when the silence began to stretch between us, heavy and uncomfortable, I opened my mouth before Ashton could say anything.“Stop those crocodile tears, Mon.” The old nickname slipped out before I could stop it, the same one I used to call her years ago when we were still a family instead of three people standing in a room with enough hatred between us to suffocate the air. The moment the word left my mouth, I regretted it. I had meant to sound indifferent, detached, like none of this mattered to me anymore, but instead, I had given her a glimpse of something I had spent years trying to bury.She let out a bitter little chuckle, wiping at the tears gathering beneath her eyes. “Yo

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    The Complicated Conversation

    Ashton“I can't believe she'd actually convinced us to come talk to her,” Jax grumbled as we walked toward Monica's room. God knew if we'd even find her there—or if she'd escaped to Gabrielle's room instead. Ever since this entire wedding fiasco had begun, the two of them had turned it into their own little escapade.“I honestly don't know what we're going to get out of this conversation,” I admitted with a quiet sigh. “But I trust Elena's instincts. If she felt there was something we've been missing all this time... then maybe there really is.”“I know.” Jax let out a humorless scoff. “If anyone else had told me Monica deserved even the slightest chance at redemption, I'd have called them a fucking idiot and kicked them straight out of my room.”“Let's just hear what she has to say,” I muttered. “It feels strange enough to even imagine willingly having a conversation with her.”“The feeling's mutual, Brother,” Jax replied under his breath as we turned into the corridor leading toward

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Have The Hard Conversation

    ElenaI bit back a groan.Fuck.Why was I here again?"I am not lying," I tried to say, my voice coming out muffled as Ashton's teeth continued to toy with my bottom lip. A second later, his tongue darted out, brushing over the spot in a slow, teasing lick that sent literal shivers racing down my spine. Damn him. I was far too familiar with the warmth of his tongue—and the places it usually wandered to. Nope. Absolutely not. I wasn't going to think about that. Not even in my own head.He leaned in to bite my lip again, but this time I gathered what little willpower I had left. Planting both hands against his chest, I shoved him back with a huff. "Asshole! I am here to talk about something. You can't keep distracting me!"A low chuckle escaped Ashton as he finally relented, slipping both hands into the pockets of his trousers. "Fine, speak. But after that..." He took a slow step closer, his dark eyes never leaving mine, the intensity in them enough to make my pulse stumble. The corner

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Distracted

    ElenaI’d contemplated everything Monica had told me.Over and over again, I’d replayed every single word in my head, searching for even the smallest inconsistency, some hidden motive, some reason she’d show up at my door only to feed me lies.But I couldn’t find one.I simply couldn’t.Maybe I wasn’t the best judge of character. After all, my own father had managed to fool me for years without me ever suspecting a thing. If the man who’d raised me could wear a mask so convincingly, then perhaps I really wasn’t qualified to decide who was telling the truth and who wasn’t.But there was one thing I knew with absolute certainty.Monica’s eyes today…They hadn’t lied.Not once.There had been fear in them.Regret.And something else I couldn’t quite put a name to—something heavy enough to dull the sharp confidence she’d always carried like a second skin.Everything she’d said…The words she’d chosen.The way she’d said them.The pauses between her sentences.The hesitation in her voice.

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Monica’s other side

    Elena“What do you want, Monica?” I sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose as a dull ache settled behind my eyes. “I really don’t have the energy to listen to your nonsense right now after all the shit that’s happened.”“Don’t worry, I’m not here to talk shit,” she replied almost immediately, raising both hands slightly as if trying to prove she meant no harm. “It’s going to take ten minutes—not a second more than that. I promise.”I studied her for a long moment, searching her face for the smugness or sarcasm I had grown so accustomed to seeing whenever we crossed paths, but neither came. Instead, she simply stood there, looking strangely… uncertain. I let out another tired sigh, weighed my options for a few seconds, then stepped aside.“Come on in, then.”She gave me a small nod before stepping inside. I closed the door behind her, the click echoing through the quiet house, and motioned toward the living room.“Please, sit.”She thanked me with another quiet nod and lowered herself

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    A Game Of Temptation

    Elena I was trapped between two Alphas in the pool, their bodies pressed tight against mine, hands on me, their scents—dark cedar, sandalwood, and something uniquely male and powerful—filling the air until it was thick enough to taste. I could feel it—as if I could dart my tongue out and I’d ta

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Trapped

    ElenaThe thought was exciting. I’d admit that.Two Alphas—both devastatingly handsome, bodies carved by power, scents thick enough to make you want to sin and beg forgiveness later.“It’s not happening, Princess,” Ashton said flatly. “Forget it.”He turned to walk away.I caught his hand, gripping

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Take my vigrinity

    ElenaI stood on the rooftop, staring down at the borders.Guards patrolled in relentless formation, eyes sharp, movements precise. No lazy pauses. No fifteen-minute breaks. Every shift was replaced seamlessly by another team.Fuck.There was no escaping the borders anymore.I swept my gaze north,

  • Alpha Daddies: To Break The Contract    Caught

    ElenaI ran.Bare feet slapped against the rough earth, every stride slicing my skin open a little more. The ground was cold, cruel, and unyielding. My lungs burned; my heart felt like it was about to rupture. My wolf wanted to shift back—she was done, exhausted—but I couldn't stop. Not now. Not wh
