Natalia:

The dining hall gleamed. Candles flickered against polished silver and glass, the air humming with the scent of roasted meat and spice. Mira had arranged everything perfectly, every plate aligned, every detail flawless. I should’ve felt reassured. Instead, I felt… off.

It was cold, and void of emotion. If anything, it seemed colder than it had ever been.

Almost like a cold reminder of how this marriage started.

Because Nolan wasn’t looking at me.

“I have to admit, I didn’t expect you to welcome us as early into your marriage.” One of the elders said, looking at both Nolan and I. He did not respond, not for a few seconds, and I looked down at the plate before smiling politely.

He sat beside me, towering, his shoulders rigid with an edge I couldn’t place. He had pulled out my chair for me, polite, proper, but since then, he hadn’t spared me a glance.

“It is always an honor to have elders into our home. Not many have that privilege and to be part of those who do, I know many wou

  • Alpha Nolan   Chapter 45

    Natalia:The past few days I lived like a ghost.I moved through the halls, smiled when necessary, sat where expected… but never near him. Never with him.And if I could, I avoided him at all costs…I didn’t speak to him at breakfast. Didn’t sit by him at dinner. And if he entered a room, I left. It was the only way I knew how to protect what little strength I had left. It was the one way for me to be able to hold onto whatever dignity I had left. And at this point, the last thing that I wanted was to find my dignity more insulted than it already was.But the ache in my chest never left. The way he had looked at me as if I was nothing more than a mistake that he wanted nothing more than to get rid of, the way he made me feel like I was pushing myself on him when I sure as hell wasn’t. And the sting of his words clung to me like smoke. Maybe if you knew your place… It wasn’t just anger anymore. It was pain. A sharp, gnawing pain that came with every glance I caught of him. Pain becaus

  • Alpha Nolan   Chapter 44

    Nolan:The night dragged.Every elder, every voice, every pair of eyes that lingered too long on me or on her only twisted the irritation deeper under my skin.I wanted nothing more than for this evening to end without an incident.And through it all, she didn’t look at me once.She didn’t even bother anymore. And that was the better option.She laughed politely at their jokes. Smiled when Mira’s sharp tongue pressed too close. Nodded when Elder Vance praised her “poise.” They saw her as the elegant Luna that every other Alpha would want to have, and they saw her as the Luna that they would want to be with.And when Elder Mathew leaned toward her as the table quieted, his voice low but clear enough for me to hear. “Are you truly alright, Luna? You look… weary.”My chest tightened. And I wanted nothing more than to hold her in my arms. And just for a second, I wanted to remind myself that she had nothing to do with whatever Mira was pulling off. But I also knew that there was no gettin

  • Alpha Nolan   Chapter 42

    Nolan:Natalia’s laughter drifted across the hall, soft and unassuming as she instructed one of the maids to adjust the candleholders.Mira hovered at her side like a shadow, touching the tablecloth as if she had any right to approve it. The servants scurried about, nervous, eager, while Alessandro barked the occasional correction. Most of the corrections were for the choices that Mira made.I stood in the doorway, watching.Natalia’s hands moved with care, her eyes sharp with the kind of focus that demanded respect. And yet she still smiled politely when Mira leaned in, whispering something I couldn’t hear, feigning friendship. She looked at the maids with a respect that I knew most Lunas might not have towards their servants or even those of lower rank. And when I looked at Mira, she barked orders on them as if she was the one in charge.The sight turned my stomach.I strode across the room. Natalia looked up at once, surprise flickering across her features before she offered me tha

  • Alpha Nolan   Chapter 41

    Natalia:Alessandro found me in the library.I’d been sitting with a book open in my lap, not really reading, just tracing the faded ink of the words with my finger when his shadow fell across the page.“Luna,” he said, tone clipped as usual. “The elders are coming tomorrow evening. It will be a formal gathering. You’ll be expected to join.”My head snapped up. “The elders? I did not expect them to be coming as quickly. Normally they would leave the alpha and his Luna while longer before they chose to invade or intervene, and whatever it is that they want isn't a head off that Elder Mathew chose to approach us.”He nodded once. “They want to meet you properly. The Alpha already confirmed it.” His gaze softened, barely, before he added, “It matters how you carry yourself. They’ll test you, even if they don’t say it out loud. As for Elder Mathew, I think the of all people should know very well why he chose to intervene. But things have been going well since he came, right?”The small sm

  • Alpha Nolan   Chapter 40

    Nolan:She descended the stairs with the kind of grace that didn’t belong to this world.It wasn’t the dress, though it helped. And truth be told, I couldn't even bring myself to look away from her.Midnight blue, fitted at the waist, delicate straps that revealed the soft curve of her shoulders. It wasn’t the way her hair was pinned up with just enough strands falling around her face to frame it like art.It was her.It was the aura that she emitted.It was the fact that she didn’t seem to know how beautiful she looked. That she wasn’t trying to impress anyone. That she moved like someone who had nothing to prove, and yet still managed to turn every goddamn head in the packhouse as she walked by.Including mine.Especially mine.I stood at the base of the stairs, my mouth set in a neutral line, my hands loosely in the pockets of my coat. But inside, fuck, inside, I was already breaking my rules.Because this wasn’t supposed to happen. I wasn’t supposed to feel anything at all.I wasn
