Zane’s POV

I closed the drawer, neatly stacking the underwear, and turned around.

My eyes froze on Mabel. She stood there, wrapped in a towel, completely still, as if she were waiting for me to say something.

The towel, soft and white with yellow edges, was just long enough to cover her from chest to thighs, barely enough to hide anything. She held the towel tight, her knuckles turning white. I couldn’t help but notice how it made her chest stand out. Damn, she knew exactly what she was doing.

I let out a small, amused smirk. "Are you trying to seduce me, Mabel?"

Her face exploded into a deep blush. It was so intense even her ears turned bright red. If she kept this up, I might need to revive her with some mouth-to-mouth.

Mabel tightened her grip on the towel. "I-I didn’t get clothes… I need... clothes," she stuttered, struggling to speak clearly. "What seducing? Who would even try to seduce the Devi

    Mabel’s POV"I'm sorry," I whispered, pulling back from Zane’s chest.His shirt was soaked through with my tears, clinging to him in a way that only reminded me of how long I’d been a mess in his arms. The embarrassment made my skin burn."There’s nothing for you to be sorry about, kitten," he said, brushing his thumb across my cheek. His voice was low, calm, almost gentle.I ducked my head, rubbing at my eyes with the back of my palm. "I ruined your shirt."Zane chuckled, though his eyes stayed serious. "That’s the least of my worries."I tried to breathe steadily, but the air still came out shaky. It had been years since I cried like that, maybe ever, and now the scary Alpha had held me through it. I wasn’t sure which part unsettled me more."I should’ve come back earlier," he said suddenly. "The meeting dragged longer than I thought."I blinked. "Meeting?"His

    Mabel’s POV“I said leave.” Zane’s voice cut sharp, his hand pressing harder on Ronan’s shoulder.“And I said he stays.” My words came out steady, even though my chest was tight. His Alpha aura pushed like a heavy wall, but I refused to bow. Not this time.Zane’s eyes narrowed. If it weren’t for the space between Ronan and me, Zane would have torn him apart already. One wrong move and Ronan’s neck was gone.Ronan scrambled up, his shirt clinging to his back with sweat. He looked like someone had dumped a bucket of water on him. Every nerve in his body screamed danger, and he knew it.“I’m sorry, Mabel, but—”I hated that he was giving in. Not just to Zane’s order, but to the idea that Zane could walk in here and control everything. He wasn’t my boss. He wasn’t anyone’s boss outside his pack.Zane promised me he’d come to the festival. He didn’t. He promised me he’d show up. Instead, he disappeared with some random gir

    Mabel’s POV / Zane’s POV“Why’d you bring me here?” I asked, my voice low.Ronan dropped onto the grass beside me, not too close, not too far. A careful distance. His eyes flicked to the rocks behind us, then back to the wide lake in front.“This is where I hide when I want peace,” he said.The air smelled of damp earth and pine. The festival noise carried across the water, faint enough to feel unreal, like it belonged to another world.I drew my knees to my chest and pressed my chin against them. “It’s quiet.”“You like it?”I gave a small nod. “It’s beautiful.”Ronan leaned back on his palms. “I figured you’d appreciate it.”He tried to sound casual, but I caught the way he kept glancing at me. Waiting. Wondering. I wasn’t in the mood to talk, but silence made him restless.My eyes stayed on the rippling lake. If I let my mind go blank, the ache in my chest dulled. I had practiced that trick bac

    Mabel’s POV“Where’s Navy?” I asked Iver, Otis, and Finch as we headed toward the main street where the parade would pass.They came into view without her, and even though I already knew the answer, I couldn’t help but ask.“We lost her at the seafood stand,” Otis said with a shrug.Finch grinned. “She wasn’t into barbequed squid. Nena and Nessa skipped that too, but at least they hung around.”I pressed my lips into a thin line, and Iver caught it.“You want to meet up with her? She’s probably on the rooftop at city hall. That’s where the big shots will be watching.”He made it sound tempting. A rooftop view. The perfect place to see the floats roll by. But I shook my head.“No. Just curious.”I had no desire to squeeze myself in among Alphas and officials. That rooftop was for people who mattered. I wasn&rsq

    Mabel’s POV"I'm ready. Do I look weird in this?" I stepped out of the dressing room, tugging at the hem of my shorts. Ronan hadn’t moved an inch since I left. His eyes were on me, and it made my skin prickle."Is something wrong?" I asked.Ronan blinked, like I’d just pulled him out of a daze. He swallowed hard. "Uh… no. You’re fine."Fine? His voice cracked. He looked like he was trying not to choke on his own tongue."You sure?" I tilted my head."Yeah. Totally. Just—wait for me on the mat. I’ll grab some water." He spun away fast, muttering something about cooling off.When he came back, he moved stiffly, shoulders locked. He didn’t look at me much. My stomach twisted with guilt. He could’ve been at the festival, surrounded by people who adored him. Instead, he was stuck here with me."We can skip this," I offered. "You probably have other things to do.

  • Captured by the Alpha's Love   Chapter 106

    Mabel’s POV“So, what do you even do here at the Stonebrook pack?” Navy tilted her head at me.“I’m helping in the kitchen.”Her eyebrow jumped. “Alpha Zane put you to work already?”“No.” I shook my head fast. “I asked for it. I wanted to learn how to cook, and sitting in a room all day is boring.” I caught her eyes softening and rushed to add, “I’m also studying medicine. I hope to work in the pack hospital. Plus, Ronan is training me, so I’m learning to fight.”“Really?”I pointed toward Ronan across the table. “That’s him. He made a routine for me. We’re heading to the training center after this.”“You’re skipping the festival?” Her lips pulled down. She clearly wanted to stay in a group.“We won’t go right away. Exercising right after food is bad.
