Claimed By The Alpha Where Hope Dies
The slam of the iron cell door echoed like a final nail in the coffin of her spirit.Ryleigh didn’t flinch.She couldn’t.Her body ached, her muscles screamed, and her throat burned from the tears she hadn’t even realized she’d been shedding. The cracked cement floor felt like jagged glass beneath her as she lay there, unmoving, her cheek pressed against the cold surface.Margaret's voice still rang in her ears.“A few days in here might remind you where you belong.”She hadn’t bothered to reply. What was the point? No one cared. Not anymore.Derek was gone.Damien was gone.Her real parents were gone.Her adoptive parents were dead.And she—she was nothing but a servant again, garbage shoved back into the hole where her nightmare had begun.The cell was exactly as she remembered it.Stone walls that sweated moisture. A narrow cot with a thin, scratchy blanket. A rusted sink that coughed out brown water when the pressure decided to cooperate. And the shadows—always watching. Always pr
Claimed By The Alpha Nowhere to Run
Morning came slowly, creeping into the corners of Ryleigh’s room like a thief in the night.Her eyes opened to a dull ache pulsing behind them. Her body didn’t feel like her own—it felt heavier, slower, bruised in ways that went deeper than the skin. She didn’t move right away. She couldn’t. Her neck throbbed where the guard’s hand had crushed her throat, and her ribs screamed every time she inhaled too sharply.The memory hit like a slap.Margaret’s voice.The guard’s grip.The wall.The floor.And then the silence afterward. Cold. Final.She shifted slightly and winced, curling her arms around her aching ribs. The plain wool blanket barely offered warmth. The thin mattress beneath her was no comfort at all. She lay there, staring at the faded ceiling, and thought about how easy it would be to stay. To rot here. To give in to whatever fate had planned for her.But something deeper—something stronger—burned beneath the bruises.No. Not like this.She wouldn’t stay here to be broken.S
Claimed By The Alpha No One Is Coming
Pain throbbed through every inch of Ryleigh’s body.She lay curled on the cold tile floor of the laundry room, barely breathing, arms tucked around her ribs as if she could hold herself together by sheer will. Her throat burned—raw and bruised from where the guard’s thick fingers had clamped down with cruel precision. Each breath stung like broken glass. Her back ached where he’d slammed her into the wall. Her hip throbbed from the fall.The room was quiet now. Still. Almost mocking in its normalcy.It was like nothing had happened. Like she hadn’t just been choked, threatened, and discarded like garbage.The scent of fresh linen and detergent hung heavy in the air, a cruel contrast to the violence that had just unfolded.Her fingers twitched against the floor, trying to push up, but her body screamed in protest. Her muscles shook beneath the weight of pain, shame, and exhaustion. But she had to move.She had to get up.Ryleigh clenched her jaw and forced herself onto her side, then u
Claimed By The Alpha When Silence Breaks
The days passed like a blur of gray clouds, each one heavier than the last.Ryleigh remained in the Alpha’s suite, the black and gold walls beginning to feel more like a prison than a sanctuary. The bed, once so soft and inviting, now seemed too big, too cold. The meals that were brought up to her arrived like clockwork—warm, aromatic, perfectly prepared—but they tasted like ash in her mouth. The delicate clothes laid out for her each morning were exchanged again that evening, as if she were some precious doll being kept on display, too broken to move.But no amount of comfort could fill the void that was growing inside her.Damien was gone.No updates. No messages. Not even a rumor of Derek.And that was the worst part.Not knowing.The silence was louder than any scream.By Wednesday, Ryleigh had stopped pretending to read the worn romance novel on Damien’s nightstand. She turned off the TV on Thursday and didn’t bother turning it back on. Natalia came by once or twice a day, checki
Claimed By The Alpha The Hollow Inside
A soft knock at the door stirred Ryleigh from her thoughts.She sat up straighter on the edge of the bed, clutching the letter Damien had left. Her fingers had traced his signature so many times she could practically feel the curve of his pen strokes imprinted into her skin. The letter now lay beside her, partially crumpled, like her heart.The knock came again—gentle, but persistent.Ryleigh padded across the cool marble floor and opened the door.“Natalia,” she breathed, surprised.Natalia stood in the doorway holding a silver tray piled with breakfast: flaky croissants, scrambled eggs, sizzling bacon, and a tall glass of orange juice that sparkled in the morning light. Her curls were pinned up, but a few rebellious tendrils had escaped, softening her face. She wore her usual apron over a casual blue dress, but her expression was tender.“You didn’t think we’d let you starve up here, did you?” Natalia teased lightly.Ryleigh stepped aside, and Natalia entered the grand suite, eyes s
Claimed By The Alpha Gilded Cages
Morning sunlight filtered through the gauzy curtains, soft and golden, casting a warm glow across the luxurious suite. Ryleigh stirred, her cheek pressed to the cool, silky pillowcase. For a moment, she forgot where she was. The bed beneath her was too large, the sheets too smooth, the quiet too peaceful.Then it came rushing back—Derek was missing. She was in Damien’s suite.Her eyes opened fully, adjusting to the opulence around her. The rich black and gold décor seemed less intimidating in the daylight, but the ache in her chest reminded her nothing was truly fine. She sat up slowly, surprised to find a neatly folded set of clothes resting at the end of the bed: a pair of soft gray joggers, a plain white shirt, white bra and matching panties—hers.Beside them, a small envelope sat with her name written in Damien’s bold handwriting.She hesitated before picking it up, her heart thudding softly. Ryleigh,You’ve been through enough. Stay here and rest. The suite is yours for the next
