CHAPTER 105: WAKE UP

ADRIAN:

The ride to the hospital was a blur of flashing lights and gut-wrenching silence. Every bump in the road sent a jolt of pain through my ribs, but it was nothing compared to the hollow ache in my chest. When the tires finally screeched to a halt in front of the emergency wing, I didn't wait for Clement to open the door. I threw it open myself and stumbled out into the cold night air.

I must have looked like a monster. My clothes were shredded, caked in dried mud and

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    THEY MUST PAY FOR THEIR ACTIONS

    ELENA:I knew perfectly well that Queen Aria was in a critical, heartbreaking state, but an uneasy shadow kept lingering in the back of my mind. Less than a week ago, I had experienced a strange, deeply unsettling dream—a vivid premonition where I saw a strange, unfamiliar woman wrapped securely in Adrian’s arms. She had looked like a fragile, delicate creature, entirely weak and unable to support her own weight, leaning on him for survival.The image had stuck with me ever since.Right up until this very moment, no one had ever figured out what had actually brought Aria to the Blackwood Pack territory in the first place. What on earth was she even looking for at that remote construction site? And why on earth did the catastrophic accident happen at the exact moment she arrived, throwing herself in front of falling steel to save Adrian?None of it added up. Everything felt far too convenient to be a mere coincidence. It all looked like a calculated, intricate setup. Especially when yo

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    WORRIED ABOUT ARIA

    ADRIAN:I walked quietly down the final corridor of the infirmary wing and pushed open the heavy wooden door to Queen Aria’s private recovery room.The pack doctor was standing right beside the bed, carefully checking her vital monitors. When the door clicked open, he turned around, his face breaking into a warm, surprised smile."Alpha?" the doctor greeted quietly. "Word was just going around that you and the Luna had traveled abroad for a holiday. You're back already?"I offered a grim nod, stepping further into the room. "Given the unprecedented, chaotic situation that occurred in the pack yesterday, I didn't have any other choice than to cut my trip short."The doctor gave an understanding nod, his expression shifting to one of shared gravity, clearly well aware of the mess Lucian and my father had tried to pull while I was away. I turned my gaze from him, looking down at the woman lying motionless on the bed. "So... how is she holding up?""She's still unconscious," the doctor re

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    LUCIAN MADE ME DO IT

    ADRIAN:Hearing Lucian boldly spit out that he wasn't afraid of me, that the absolute worst thing I could do to him was kill him, a cold, humorless smirk spread across my face.What the arrogant fool didn't realize was that death was an easy escape. I could easily subject him to a condition that was far, far worse than death, leaving him to rot in a living hell of my own design.I nodded slowly, my eyes locked on his bandaged frame. "It's actually a very good thing that you're not afraid of me, Lucian, because being terrified would have only made punishing you difficult for me. I genuinely wish you a very quick recovery."Without waiting for another snide word or response from him, I turned sharply on my heel and walked right out of his hospital room, leaving him alone to groan in agony under his heavy layers of gauze.I had two more people to visit in this ward before I was done here.Next, I walked down the sterile hallway and pushed open the door to my father’s recovery room. The o

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    SHIFTING THE BLAME

    ADRIAN:Stepping away from the crowd, my chest instantly swelled with a deep, unexpected warmth. These pack members weren't just standing there out of polite obligation; their faces were lit up with genuine smiles, cheers, and palpable relief.It wasn't the first time I had left the pack for travel—sometimes I'd be gone for nearly a week on a business trip—and never before had my people shown this explosive level of joy and enthusiasm just to have me back home. But it made complete sense. They had lived through the sheer terror of Lucian's illegal coup attempt, watching in horror as a sham coronation nearly destroyed the pack's stability. Seeing that chaotic plot fail so spectacularly had left them deeply shaken, but it also made them realize something profound.Now, I knew without a doubt that my people truly loved and trusted me.I beamed radiantly, pulling Elena close against my side as we walked toward our master suite. Once we stepped into our master suite, I made sure Elena was

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    CELEBRATING OUR SAFE RETURN

    ADRIAN:"Hold your position, Clement! Do not try to engage them head-on or force heavy iron chains onto them while they're in a mad frenzy—you'll just end up getting yourself killed," I barked straight into the phone, my tone instantly shifting from a relaxed vacationer to a hard, commanding Alpha.With the failed coronation in absolute ruins across the pack and the entire pack facing a massive, unprecedented security crisis, I couldn't afford to waste a single second. I needed to take decisive, authoritative action right this second to prevent total disaster.I ordered Clement to immediately mobilize our specialized tactical containment units to deploy long-range acoustic disruptors and chemical pacifiers from a safe distance, designed to wear down the beasts' initial adrenaline surge rather than needlessly provoking them with steel weapons and blades. I instructed him to lock down the entire perimeter, evacuate the surrounding civilian sectors, and seal off the lower tiers of the ba

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    THERE'S A SITUATION IN THE PACK

    ADRIAN:Seeing how I screamed out, my voice cracking raw and loud as the horrifying, chaotic scene unfolded before me on the small phone screen, Elena instantly snatched the device right out of my trembling hands. Her eyes went wide with shock and morbid fascination as she stared at the frantic video feed. "Adrian, look! The dragon got up again!" she gasped, pointing eagerly at the glowing display.I quickly took the phone back from Elena, my jaw clenching so hard my teeth ached as I continued watching the carnage unfold. The beast indeed hadn't died from Lucian's blow. It staggered back up onto its massive, scaled legs—most likely because right before Lucian could strike another fatal blow, an unseen, incredibly powerful force had intervened. An invisible hand had swiftly knocked the heavy ceremonial sword straight out of Lucian's grip, sending it clattering across the stone floor.Neither Elena nor I needed to ask whose invisible force was at play. We both knew instantly that it wa

    CHAPTER 5: A MATE AND A MISTRESS ADRIAN:I stepped out of the room as the door clicked shut behind me, leaving Elena Thorne alone with her tears and her tall tales. She really thought she knew me. She really thought a bullet to her boyfriend's head was the peak of what I could do.She had no idea.

The stone gate of our estate, the crooked oak tree where Kamala and I used to hide from our tutors, and

    CHAPTER 2: I KNOW WHO YOU AREELENA:As soon as my father made that statement, the silence in the room became heavy. It felt like a physical weight pressing down on my lungs, making every breath a struggle. I stood there on that dais, the rubies on my red dress feeling like drops of frozen blood ag
