Bound By Blood: The Alpha's Human Mate Chapter 70
Sophia's POVI stirred awake to the aroma of coffee and the odd sensation of sunlight heating my cheeks. For a confusing beat, my pulse jumped, bracing for the gray rock walls of the hold, or the solid, known timber of the Blackwell bedroom.Then it clicked: beige walls, the gentle hum of forced air, the far-off buzz of a town stirring twenty levels down.Marcus's upscale flat. Our fresh start.I shuffled to the spacious open layout. Marcus loomed at the sleek metal counter, a hulking figure seeming oddly gentle with a coffee plunger in hand. He had on joggers and a plain ash tee that pulled tight across his broad back. The view was so casually everyday it tugged at my heart."You're meant to rest longer," he grumbled, filling a cup with dark brew and pushing it my way. "Town's loud. Kept me up most of the night adjusting.""It's a nice sound," I replied, cupping the hot mug. It was the sound of being unknown. "Thanks.

Ethan's POVThe sound of Lucas's voice, low and venomous in the hallway, was the final straw. He caused all of this, so he had absolutely no right to feel wronged.I was out of the study and down the hall before the thought fully formed. I turned the corner to see him crowding her against the wall, his posture aggressive, his words a sharp, quiet assault. She looked exhausted, hollowed out, but her chin was still lifted in that defiant way that once made my heart swell and now made it feel like it was being crushed in a vise."Enough," I said, my voice cutting through the tension like a blade.They both flinched, turning. Lucas's eyes flashed with a mix of guilt and defiance. Sophia's were just... weary."Alpha, I was just...""I heard what you were just doing," I interrupted, my tone leaving no room for argument. I walked forward, inserting myself physically between them, forcing Lucas to take a step back. I kept my back to Sophia. I couldn't look at her. Not now. "She made her choic

Sophia's POVI let the words hang there."You are not leaving my territory with him," he declared, each syllable like a command carved in rock.A odd peace came over me. This was the response I'd braced for. This was the Alpha who couldn't imagine defeat. "You don't get to decide, Ethan. We had an agreement. A week to decide. I decided. The rules were straightforward: if I picked someone else, I could go with them. You accepted.""I accepted a sham to calm you and my disloyal brothers!" he growled. "I didn't accept you vanishing from my existence!""You can't change the terms now that you've come up short," I said, my tone even as my heart pounded hard. "This isn't a fight you can overpower into yielding. This is the result of your own choices. Of the hidden truths, the demands, the battles you pulled me into without my okay. And it's the result of everybody in this place telling me the greatest thing I could do for you was to release you." I drew a quick breath. "So I'm releasing. We

Sophia's POVEveryone stayed silent for what seemed like forever, even though it was probably just a few seconds.Then, Ethan let out a sound. It was a deep, pained groan from way down in his chest, like an animal hit with a fatal blow. The spark in his eyes didn't just fade; it got buried under a rush of total, crushing heartbreak. He took one shaky step backward.Lucas's expression turned empty, a flawless front of soldier-like calm, but his fingers dug white into the chair's arm.Marcus... Marcus seemed stunned. Then, bit by bit, a deep, gut-wrenching realization lit in his eyes. He wasn't looking at a win. He was looking at an obligation he'd vowed to honor.I pushed myself to break the silence, my words shaking but steady. "Ethan... Lucas... I'm sorry. This isn't turning my back on who you are. It's picking what I need at this moment. And I have my reasons.""Reasons," Ethan repeated, the term sounding empty and rough. "What reasons? What could possibly..."He got interrupted as

Chapter 66Sophia's POVThis guy had a way for dropping heavy truths even when he could've kept quiet. Choose anyone but Ethan. I gaped at him, the solid iron key in my grip feeling like a dead weight."What?" I got out at last, my words hardly above a breath. "Why say that? He's your Alpha.""He was my Alpha," Idris amended, his tone still hushed but unyielding. "Before you came along, Ethan was a weapon. Keen, focused, unyielding. He ruled with total command. The pack thrived because his resolve was steel. No splits, no quiet rebellions, no outside witches bold enough to step on our ground."He locked eyes with me, his timeless gaze grim. "Since you showed up, Sophia, he's turned... vulnerable. Every call runs through the filter of keeping you secure. The raid on the base wasn't a calculated hit; it was a wild charge. He marched into Holloway's chamber not as a bargaining Alpha, but as a frantic mate. He bared his biggest flaw to our worst foe.""He rescued me," I argued, my face hea

Sophia's POVThe atmosphere in the office shifted to something brittle, like it could shatter. Ethan's calm query lingered between us, edged enough to slice.My eyes darted from his impassive expression back to the lit display, to those incriminating phrases: She's just toying with you.All the muddle, the dread, the churning feelings from the last week hardened into one icy stab of disloyalty. "Who's Jess?" I questioned, my tone misleadingly even.He stayed put in the entrance, a mute barrier to my way out. "A connection. From way back.""A connection who messages you about me. Who claims I'm toying with you." I allowed the pain to color my words, pivoting to confront him squarely. "While you've been preaching about Lucas's acts, you've been getting tips from some... some echo of your history?""It's not what you think." He stepped inside at last, easing the door closed. The snap of the lock carried a foreboding weight. "Jess is... was... a go-between. From an impartial group. She ha
