His voice climbed with each word, passion and fury bleeding together until they were indistinguishable. "You could have had everything. Power, respect, a legacy that would echo through generations. Instead, you sit in that house like a ghost, letting him treat you like—"

"Like what?" I interrupted, my own voice rising to match his. "Like the prisoner I am? Like the sacrifice you offered up to appease him? Like the daughter you stopped loving the moment she stopped being useful to you?"

"Influence?" My laugh came out jagged, hollow, echoing off the walls of the room like broken glass. "What influence? Do you not see how he treats me? Do you not hear the whispers that follow me down every corridor?"

I stepped toward him, my fear dissolving into something sharper, more dangerous. "They don't see me as Luna—they see me as a prisoner dressed in silk. As his toy. His proof of victory over you. They watch me at those dinners, waiting to see how long it takes before I break completely. And yo

  • Bound To The Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 15: Caged Flames

    The door slammed shut with such force that the walls shuddered. My father’s footsteps faded down the corridor, but the echo of his voice—his venom, his accusations—still clung to my skin like smoke.Silence followed. Heavy, suffocating silence.I couldn’t move. My body was trembling, every muscle coiled tight, my pulse hammering in my throat. The metallic taste of blood lingered on my tongue from where I’d bitten it to keep from screaming. My cheek still stung where he had struck me, the heat of it spreading like spilled wine, and beneath that, a deeper ache where Kael’s hand had pinned my wrist, branding me with his control. I could still feel the phantom pressure of his fingers, the way they’d pressed just hard enough to leave their mark without breaking bone.And he was still here.I could feel him before I dared to look—Kael’s presence filling the room like a storm cloud, dark and s

    My father grunted, straining against the grip, but Kael’s fingers only tightened until I swore I heard the bones creak in protest. Then, with a dismissive shove that sent my father stumbling backward, Kael released him.Roran caught himself against the wall, clutching his wrist to his chest, his face purple with rage and something that might have been pain. “You think you’ve won, Blackthorn?” he snarled, cradling his injured hand. “You think turning her against me makes you stronger? She’s weak. She’ll never survive you.”His gaze darted back to me, sharp as a blade and twice as cutting. “And you—don’t think for one second you’ll ever escape being my daughter. That blood will chain you until you die.”The words stabbed deeper than I wanted them to, finding every insecurity I’d ever harbored and twisting. My chest tightened, breath coming in shallow bursts that weren&r

  • Bound To The Ruthless Alpha   CHAPTER 14: Part 03

    My father barked a bitter laugh, the sound grating and broken, shattered by the force of his fury. “You’ve lost your mind, Blackthorn,” he snarled, spittle flying from his lips. “She’s my blood, my child, and you’d let her pass judgment on me? She has no power, no authority—she’s nothing but a weak little girl who—”Kael cut him off with a single glance, so sharp and cold it sliced the words right out of his mouth. The temperature in the room seemed to drop ten degrees, and even I felt the chill of that stare.“She has the only power that matters,” he said smoothly, his thumb still brushing against my bruised cheek as if to emphasize his point, as if to remind exactly who controlled what. “Because I give it to her.”The room spun around me, tilting on its axis until I had to fight to keep my footing. My knees trembled beneath my skirts, heat burning in my chest until

    The admission hung in the air between them, heavy and damning. Father’s chest puffed out, his jaw setting in that stubborn line I knew so well, but he didn’t deny it. Couldn’t deny it. The words had been spoken, witnessed, and now they lingered like poison in the room.Kael tilted his head, studying my father the way one might examine an insect before crushing it beneath their heel. His eyes glinted with something sharp and dangerous, and when his lips curled, it wasn’t into a smile—it was into a sneer so dark it made my skin crawl, so predatory it sent ice flooding through my veins.“Then let me remind you,” he said, his tone dropping low and intimate, each word like a blade sliding between ribs with surgical precision, “even if that were true, even if every servant in this house stood above her… she would still be more honored than you.”The words cracked through the air like a whip, shar

  • Bound To The Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 14: Claws Behind Words

    The silence after Kael’s words was like a blade suspended in the air, its edge glinting, waiting to cut.My father’s jaw flexed, the cords in his neck straining as his hands curled into fists at his sides. Even from where I stood, I could see the tremor in his fingers—rage barely leashed, violence coiled and ready to spring. The air itself seemed to thicken around him, pressing against my lungs until each breath felt stolen.His voice cracked the silence, low at first, but sharp, venom seeping into every syllable like poison dripped from a blade.“You dare question my blood, Blackthorn?” he hissed, each word deliberate, calculated to wound. “You think because I gave her to you that she is no longer mine? Do not forget who she is. She carries Vale blood. My blood. Her failures as your Luna reflect on me, and on my pack. She has shamed me, and all of Vale, with her weakness.”The words pierced me har

    How long had he been standing there? How much had he heard?Behind me, Father's breath rattled like a storm contained in a bottle, his anger pressing at my back like a living thing. Hot and venomous and desperate to escape. The room suddenly felt impossibly small, the walls closing in from all sides.Ahead of me, Kael's presence loomed like a wall of stone, unyielding and merciless. His dark eyes swept over the scene, taking in details with the calculating gaze of a predator assessing a situation. The expensive suit that emphasized his powerful frame. The way he held himself perfectly still, coiled tension barely contained beneath civilized veneer.Caught between them, I suddenly felt small. Smaller than I ever had before. Like a mouse caught between two cats, both deciding which one would get to play with me first.Kael's eyes swept over me, lingering on the evidence of what had transpired. They landed on the crimson mark blooming across my cheek
