André’s Wolf's POV

There was no light in this place not even the distant shimmer of memory. It was as if someone had stripped the world of all meaning and color, leaving only shadow and silence behind. I didn’t know how long I had been here, pacing through the endless dark, my body formless but my presence very much alive. This wasn’t death, but it wasn’t life either. It was the place in between the broken gap between who we were and who we were supposed to be. And I was trapped in it. I, his wolf, the part of him that had once given him strength, instinct, and rage, was now nothing more than a voice screaming into a void he could no longer hear.

I remembered what it felt like to be whole, to move as one. The weight of our body in motion, the clarity of our shared mind. I remembered her too Genevieve. The warmth of her scent, the safety in her touch, the way our heart used to beat just a little faster when she walked into the room. But now, none of that reached him. He had opened his

  • Claimed By The Alpha: Cursed Desires   The Dream

    André’s POV –The dream didn’t come gently. It dragged me under like a rip current, sudden and disorienting, pulling me through something that wasn’t quite memory but wasn’t fantasy either. The world around me was a blur of shadows and red light, thick with smoke and noise, but none of it clear. Everything pulsed to a beat I couldn’t place music, maybe, but distorted, like it had been slowed down and buried beneath water. The air felt heavy, saturated with perfume and sweat and something else something sharp, electric, alive.I didn’t know where I was. I couldn’t name the place. But I knew how it made me feel. Powerful. Cold. And oddly, deeply focused. I was standing in the center of the chaos, unmoving, and all around me people shifted and moved, their faces blurred, voices distant. None of them mattered. Only one person did.She stepped into view like the eye of a storm. Her silhouette cut through the haze, confident and bold, every movement fluid with purpose. Her hair was dark and

  • Claimed By The Alpha: Cursed Desires   Echoes of the First Time

    Genevieve’s POV The air was cooler that evening, the sun slipping low behind the hills, casting long shadows across the floor. I had just finished changing his bandages, brushing my fingers lightly over the angry scarring on his ribs. He didn’t flinch anymore when I touched him, didn’t stiffen like he had that first day. Now, he watched me. Quietly. Closely. Like I was some puzzle he couldn’t figure out but couldn’t stop studying either.It should’ve been peaceful this silence. But something about the way his eyes followed me tonight felt… heavier.I crossed the room to put the used linens in the wash basin when I heard him speak low, dry, but clear.“Take off your clothes.”I froze.The words hit me like a slap not because of how they sounded, but because I had heard them before. From him. Years ago. The very first time we met.Back then, it hadn’t been gentle. It hadn’t been careful.André had walked into the club I worked at, full of arrogance and shadows, thrown money at my manag

  • Claimed By The Alpha: Cursed Desires   The Feeling That Remains

    Genevieve’s POV The room settled after Benny left, but the air between André and me still held a tension that hadn’t existed before. It wasn’t uncomfortable l at least, not for me. It felt like something had cracked open, like the surface of him had split just enough for a piece of the man I loved to peer through. And what I saw… it was his.André sat on the edge of the cot, staring at his hands like they didn’t belong to him. His shoulders were still tense, like his body hadn’t received the message that the threat had passed. I sat beside him without speaking, careful not to touch him just yet. I didn’t want to push. His breath came unevenly, but slower now, the sharp edge of that earlier instinct beginning to fade.I waited.Eventually, he broke the silence.“I don’t know why I reacted like that.”His voice was quiet, rough in his throat. He wasn’t looking at me his eyes were fixed on a point somewhere on the floor, lost in a struggle between instinct and confusion. “It just… happe

  • Claimed By The Alpha: Cursed Desires   His Instinct Returns

    Genevieve’s POV The afternoon was warm, the kind that made the healer’s hut feel softer than usual. André had eaten more that morning a good sign and even managed to walk a few slow steps across the room with my help. Every small improvement, no matter how minor, fed the fragile hope blooming inside me. He still didn’t remember anything specific, but I was learning how to read the space between what he said and how he moved. The hesitation, the way his eyes lingered when I smiled, the shift in his posture when I touched his arm his body remembered even if his mind didn’t.So when Alpha Benny arrived, I wasn’t expecting anything unusual. He’d been away on patrol for days and had only just heard the news about André waking. I heard his heavy steps before he reached the door, followed by the familiar rumble of his voice loud, cheerful, always a bit too much.I stood, brushing my palms on my dress and moving to greet him.“Genevieve,” Benny said as he stepped inside, his smile wide and

  • Claimed By The Alpha: Cursed Desires    The Red Dress

    Genevieve’s POV The days blurred. André remained quiet, his body slowly healing while his mind wandered through shadows I couldn’t reach. He was present, but only in the physical sense. He spoke sometimes, asked simple questions “What time is it?”, “Where’s the healer?” but nothing about himself. Nothing about us. And though I told myself to be patient, that healing wasn’t linear, every time he looked at me like I was a stranger, it scraped a little deeper into my heart. But today felt different. Not brighter exactly, but lighter somehow. His eyes had lingered a little longer when I helped him sit up this morning. His hand didn’t twitch away from mine when I brushed his hair back from his face. It wasn’t recognition. But it was a shift. And that was enough to make me try something I hadn’t dared to before. I stood beside the old trunk in the healer’s quarters one I had been using to keep my few belongings and gently pulled out the folded bundle of red silk tucked carefully at the

  • Claimed By The Alpha: Cursed Desires   Holding On to What’s Left

    Genevieve’s POV When his fingers moved, it was the smallest thing but to me, it felt like the earth shifted beneath my feet. At first, I thought I imagined it. That maybe my mind, desperate for a sign, had conjured the slight twitch in his hand. But then I felt it again slow and uncertain, like he was reaching through a fog so thick it swallowed everything he once knew. His fingers curled weakly around mine, not tightly, not with confidence, but gently. As if something deep inside him something primal and unspoken was telling him to hold on.My heart stuttered, aching with too many emotions at once. I couldn’t tell if it was relief or grief that poured through me as I stared at him. His eyes were still blank, unfocused. There was no recognition in them, no soft curve of a smile or teasing spark that used to light his face when he looked at me. But there was no fear either. Just a kind of quiet confusion, the kind that cracked through my chest because it didn’t belong on his face. Not
