Mabel’s POV

“Will you come to Shifters tonight?” Zina asked, her voice light but expectant.

I froze with a spoon in my hand. “Shifters?”

Dawn jumped in before Zina could explain. “It’s the hottest club around. A little far, but totally worth it. Everyone shows up there, even humans. You’ll love it.”

I forced a smile. “I’ll come if I can.”

“Perfect. Treat me well, Mabel, because you never know. I might be Luna in the morning.” Dawn laughed at her own words and tossed a wink at Tina. “But don’t worry, I’ll still help with breakfast.”

Tina didn’t look amused. I laughed anyway, mostly to ease the tension.

I had avoided taking dishes out to the dining room earlier. Let the others do it. Facing Alpha Adrian or the other guests wasn’t worth the risk. Zane was out there too, unpredictable as always.

    Zane’s POV“Wake up, Mabel,” I whispered, nudging her shoulder.Nothing. Not when I killed the engine. Not when I carried her in my arms up the stairs. She stayed limp against me, soft breaths brushing my collar.I should have been furious. She had drunk herself into this state. What if I hadn’t been here? Did she even realize how defenseless she looked?Yet on the third-floor landing, she stirred. She pressed her nose into my neck, gave a small moan, and sent a hot shiver racing through me. Her breath slipped under my shirt and the ache in my gut twisted lower.“Damn it,” I muttered. I was supposed to scold her, not fall apart.She had no idea how easily she ruled me.I paused in the hallway, staring at two doors. Her room. Mine. Which was safer?Taking her into my space would blur lines she wasn’t ready for. With a sigh, I turned left into her room. I set her on the b

  • Captured by the Alpha's Love   Chapter 88

    Mabel’s POV“I swear I’m fine, Vivian! I just needed a little drink.”Three cocktails in, my words came out slurred, but my grin refused to leave. My arms shot into the air as the bass thumped through my ribs. The lights blurred, faces flashing and vanishing like pieces in a puzzle I couldn’t solve. Dawn, Zina, Finch, Iver—smiling, waving, gone again in the sea of moving bodies.My legs wobbled. Someone bumped my hip and kept me upright. I giggled louder than I should have, the sound lost in the roar of music. Vivian said dancing would lift my mood, so I had done the drinking part first. Now it was time for the second half.I let go. No Zane, no Navy, no doubts about being unwanted. Just me, the crowd, and the beat shaking my chest.I spun once, hair whipping across my cheek, and stumbled into someone’s shoulder. Strong hands caught my hips. I laughed, but the grip didn’t ease.

    Mabel’s POV“Sullivan looks like trouble in the best way. I swear I could march right over and introduce myself,” Dawn said with a sigh, her gaze fixed on the shadowed booth upstairs. She leaned closer. “You think he’d notice me?”I didn’t bother answering. Dawn knew what she was fishing for.She frowned when I didn’t bite.Vivian picked up the silence for both of us. She already knew Sullivan wasn’t the type to play around. The rumors were clear enough. Midnight Guardians were different. They waited for their mates, and they didn’t waste time with meaningless flings.That only made Sullivan more dangerous. Every single woman wanted to be the one to break that streak, to claim his first time. Some of the men too. No wonder he carried a permanent scowl.Dawn groaned and leaned back, but my attention had already shifted to Vivian. Or more accurately, to the way she wa

  • Captured by the Alpha's Love   Chapter 86

    Mabel’s POV"Are we interrupting?"The voice cut through the music. I turned with Ronan, and there stood Iver and Finch.Heat rushed to my cheeks. My hands were still on Ronan’s shoulders, and we were too close in the middle of the dance floor. I stepped back, trying to breathe, but Iver’s grin told me he had seen enough."Thought I’d steal a dance," Iver said, eyes locked on me. He ignored Ronan’s glare."Me next," Finch added with a laugh.Ronan’s jaw flexed. I couldn’t explain it, but the thought of either of them dancing with me set his whole body tense."We were just about to grab drinks," Ronan cut in, answering for me."Perfect," Iver said easily. "We’ll join you."So the four of us pushed through the crowd toward the bar. Vivian was already perched on a stool, watching everything with her usual calm.I slipped onto the seat beside her. The gu

    Mabel’s POV"How about you, Beta Vivian? Want one of my specials?" Ronan twirled a bottle in one hand and winked.Vivian shook her head, tapping her glass. "I’ve had enough."I hid a smile. Everyone knew Ronan’s experiments could be dangerous. Vivian wasn’t about to gamble her stomach tonight.I drained the last of my first cocktail and started nursing the second. Across the counter, Ronan kept up his show. Bottles spun through the air, ice rattled, liquids poured in neat arcs. He never spilled a drop. My eyes stayed locked on his hands."You work here?" I asked when his movements slowed."Not really. I stop by to help Nia. Wouldn’t call it a job."Help Nia. The way he said it, casual but steady, made me wonder what kind of bond they had. The teasing earlier hinted at something close. Friends? Lovers? My chest tightened with curiosity, but I held my tongue. If I pushed too hard, I might r

  • Captured by the Alpha's Love   Chapter 84

    Mabel’s POV“Stick close. If you get lost in here, I’m not coming to rescue you.”Vivian’s words carried over the bass that throbbed through the narrow hallway. I kept a hand near her back as the sound grew heavier with every step.The door swung open and music slammed into me. My ears rang. Lights cut through smoke and haze. For a second I forgot how to breathe.The place was massive. Shadows of bodies moved as one, their sweat and perfume mixing with alcohol in the air. Even without sharp senses, it was overwhelming.I stayed inches behind Vivian. If we got separated, I’d never find her in this sea of moving people. Somehow, though, the crowd shifted aside. Paths opened as if the room itself knew to give way.I didn’t know Vivian was pushing her Beta aura. All I cared about was keeping balance on heels that already punished my legs. Ronan’s brutal workout earlier had left the
