CHAPTER 26: THEN PAY HER OFF

ADRIAN:

There was a thick, heavy moment of silence between my father and I. The tension in the room was palpable. I figured he was gonna get up and leave, but Silas just sat there, clearing his throat loudly.

"Actually," he said, adjusting his posture, "I came here for a completely different reason this morning."

I sat up straight, crossing my arms over my chest and giving him my full, undivided attention. "What is it?"

Alpha Silas sighed, rubbing his temples like h

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    TAKE ME HOME

    CHAPTER 128: TAKE ME HOMEADRIAN:My heart was raising as I realised that the drug slipped into my drink had triggered a premature, violent rut—a forced heat that was probably intended to force me to want to mate with the woman sitting next to me. I stood immediately, as my breathing turned ragged, coming in hot, shallow gasps. My vision blurred at the edges, tinting everything a dangerous shade of gold.Karl reached across the counter, grabbing my forearm with a heavy grip. "Whoa, Adrian, where are you going? Sit back down, finish your drink, let the girl take care of you—"With a guttural growl that sounded less like a man and more like a cornered beast, I jerked my arm away, shoving Karl hard back against the chest of drawers with enough alpha force to rattle the liquor bottles behind him. "Get your hands off me!" I snarled, my voice vibrating with dark, uncontrollable fury.I didn't wait to see if he would lunge back. I knew that if I stayed in that room for another single second

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    HAS MY DRINK BEEN SPIKED?

    CHAPTER 127: HAS MY DRINK BEEN SPIKED? ADRIAN: ​Asher took a slow sip of his drink, unbothered by my glare. "I initially got a notification from the palace saying that the king was hosting a banquet to welcome his new Queen. Then another notification came saying the banquet has been cancelled. Then around 8:pm, another notification came, saying the banquet had started. I couldn't go, so I sent my Beta. He came back after midnight and told me that Darius was actually at King Seth's palace yesterday—and he willingly handed his only daughter right over to the King to be his brand-new queen." ​My jaw dropped, and my blood started to boil. Karl let out a sharp curse. "Wait, what? But Seth already has a seated queen!" Asher heaved a sigh. "Not anymore, The king literally demoted his previous Luna overnight just to clear the path and pave the way for Darius's daughter to take the throne." ​That was the absolute breaking point. ​I slammed my fist down onto the heavy wooden table wi

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    I WANT MY LUNA BACK

    CHAPTER 126: I WANT MY LUNA BACKADRIAN:It had been two long, agonizing days since Darius had the absolute nerve to show up at my pack grounds alongside King Seth, completely disrupting the most important day of my life—my peaceful Luna coronation. I sat alone in my dark, silent office, staring at the empty chair across from me where Elena should have been sitting.I hadn't provoked Darius in any way. I hadn't crossed his borders, I hadn't stolen from him, and I certainly hadn't offended King Seth. We had a legitimate, signed alliance, and yet they had disrespected me in the worst possible way. I wasn't the kind of Alpha to charge blindly into a full-scale war without a solid plan, but I certainly was plotting a brutal revenge.For almost forty-eight hours straight, I hadn't eaten a single bite of food, and I hadn't closed my eyes to sleep. It felt like a physical, jagged piece of my soul had been ripped right out of my chest. I wanted Elena back. Deep down, even if a stupid part of

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    THE ESCAPE

    CHAPTER 125: THE ESCAPE ELENA:Vane's eyes widened in horror, and he immediately shook his head, pulling his arms back. "No way, Your Majesty. Absolutely not. You are the future Queen of this pack. The sacred forest is miles away, treacherous, filled with rogue beasts, and completely unpredictable. If anything happened to you out there while you were under my watch, the King—when he wakes up—would have me executed on the spot. I cannot risk your life."I couldn't let him win this argument. I needed to get outside those palace walls, and riding out with the search party was my absolute best ticket to freedom. I squared my shoulders, wiping my tears away with the back of my hand, and launched into a rapid-fire stream of logical, compelling arguments."Listen to me, Commander Vane, and listen very carefully," I argued fiercely, stepping right into his personal space so he couldn't look away. "First of all, do you honestly think King Seth would want me sitting here crying like a coward w

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    I WANT TO GO WITH THEM

    CHAPTER 124: I WANT TO GO WITH THEMELENA:No, I snapped mentally, grounding myself. The deed is done. Seth is paying for trying to rip my mate and I apart and hand over the pack to Lucian.At this point, I was certain the wolfsbane was already locking down his central nervous system, pushing him into a deep, vegetative state that the royal healers wouldn't be able to easily diagnose or reverse.I stopped in front of the cowering maids, crossing my arms over my chest. "What on earth is going on out here? Why is everyone running around like the pack is under attack?"The maids exchanged sideways glances, none of them daring to speak up or give a straight answer. They looked like they weren't sure if they were allowed to break the news to the king's brand-new betrothed."Well?" I demanded, letting a sharp, authoritative edge slip into my voice that made them flinch. "I asked you a question. What is happening in this palace right now?"Finally, stepping out from the shadows near the gran

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    THE WOLFSBANE HAS DONE IT'S JOB

    CHAPTER 123:ELENA:The massive mahogany doors of the royal banquet hall swung open, and as I stepped inside beside my father, the glittering lights of the grand chandeliers washed over us. As I was walking straight into the lion's den.King Seth sat at the head of a long, polished obsidian table surrounded by his elite council members, his face split into a wide, triumphant grin that made my skin crawl. He stood up immediately, his heavy gold-embroidered crown catching the light as he strode forward to greet us."Welcome to my home, future Queen Elena," Seth boomed, his voice echoing off the vaulted stone ceilings. He reached out, his thick, calloused fingers wrapping around my hand in a greeting that felt more like a shackle. "I must say, you look even more breathtaking this than you did earlier today at the Blackwood Pack. Your father made the right choice."I forced the corners of my mouth upward, shaping my face into a sweet, submissive smile. "Thank you, Your Majesty. I'm truly

But because I was finally done playing games. I hadn't intentionally come here to be a spy—I sucked a
