Chapter 131 - Council Conspiracy

Author: Ruby
last update Last Updated: 2026-01-07 00:19:34

Ryder POV

The garden ceremony is set up like something from a magazine. White chairs arranged in perfect rows, flowers everywhere, an archway covered in roses where Dominic and Celeste will exchange their official vows. Classical music plays from hidden speakers. Everything designed to look romantic and traditional.

But instead it makes my skin crawl. We take seats in the back row—strategic positioning for a quick exit. Jolie sits between Luna and me, her light dimmed but pulsing with barely contained emotion.

"Are you okay?" I ask quietly.

"No." She doesn't look at me. "But I will be once we're out of here."

Guests fill the garden. I recognize several Council-sympathetic alphas that Luna briefed us on—wolves who lost power when Jolie destroyed the Elders, who would love nothing more than to see her brought down.They're all watching her.

"They're enjoying this." Knox murmurs from my other side. "Watching her sit here after this morning's humiliation."

"Let them enjoy it." Cass is sca

  • Claimed By The Biker Alpha   Chapter 138 - The Council's Demand

    Ryder POVWe make it back to the compound just as the sun fully rises. Celeste rides behind Jolie, arms wrapped tight around my mate's waist like she's afraid of falling. Part of me still doesn't trust her. Still thinks this could be an elaborate long game designed to infiltrate our pack and destroy us from within.But Jolie's empathy gift doesn't lie. And Jolie says Celeste is genuine. So Celeste gets a chance, one chance. We pull through the gates and Doc is already waiting, medical bag in hand."She needs evaluation." He approaches cautiously as Celeste dismounts. "Physical and psychological. Thirteen years of conditioning doesn't break cleanly.""I'm fine." Celeste's voice is automatic, conditioned response. Then she catches herself. "No. I'm not fine, I don't know what I am.""Let's find out." Doc gestures toward his clinic. "Come on. I promise I'm gentle."She looks at Jolie, seeking permission or reassurance."Doc's safe." Jolie touches her arm. "He won't hurt you. He's helped

    Jolie pov "I'm not immune to anything." Her voice breaks. "I'm just good at pretending. But tonight, when Dominic explained what comes next, when he touched me and said "I'd make such beautiful test subjects" she doubled over like she's going to be sick. "I felt it. All the emotions I've been suppressing, terror and rage and helplessness. And I can't make them stop.""Because the conditioning is breaking." I take another step closer. "You've been suppressing emotions so long that when they finally break through, they're overwhelming.""I don't know how to feel like this." She looks up at me with desperate eyes. "How do you live with emotions this strong? How do you function when everything hurts?""You learn." I extend my hand slowly. "One moment at a time. You let yourself feel it, process it, and eventually it becomes manageable.""Will you help me?" She asks. "Teach me how to—how to be a person again instead of a weapon?"This could still be manipulation, it could still be a perfo

    Jolie pov "See?" I show them. "She's willing to meet in neutral territory. That's not trap behavior." "It absolutely is." Luna shakes her head. "Crossroads is a perfect ambush location. Multiple exit routes, lots of civilian cover, easy to have backup hiding nearby." "Then we have backup hiding nearby too." I'm already planning. "Knox and Cass can position themselves with sniper coverage. Phoenix can monitor communications. Luna can coordinate from here. If it's a trap, we spring it. If it's genuine, we get intelligence." "And if it's somewhere in between?" Gio asks. "If she's partially genuine but also partially still following Council orders?" "Then we read her." I touch my chest where my empathy gift lives. "I'll know the moment I'm close enough. Whether she's really scared or just performing it." "Too dangerous." Ryder's voice is alpha command. "You're not going." "Yes, I am." I meet his eyes steadily. "Because if there's even a chance that Celeste knows something about Co

    Jolie pov "I'll work on security profiles." Phoenix pulls up new files. "Guard rotations, defensive systems, anything that'll give our teams an advantage." "And I'll reach out to the medical network." Doc heads for his office. "We're going to need field hospitals, somewhere safe to bring rescued wolves while they recover." Everyone moves with purpose, spreading out to handle their assignments. Except Gio. He stays at the table, staring at Celeste's frozen image on the screen. "Are you okay?" I ask quietly. "She's my stepmother now." His voice is hollow. "Almost the same age as you, married to our father, probably in his bed right now. How is that okay?" "It's not." I sit beside him. "It's sick and calculated and designed to hurt us both." "She succeeded." He looks at me. "I keep thinking about what she said. That she seduced him, wrapped him around her finger, that he's completely under her control. Part of me wants to warn him, tell he's being manipulated." "Would he listen?

  • Claimed By The Biker Alpha   Chapter 134 - A Moment of Connection

    Jolie POVI wake to voices in the main room. For a moment, I'm disoriented—the cabin is dark, Ryder's arm heavy across my waist, my phone showing 2:47 AM. Then memory crashes back. The escape, Celeste's video, the threat of breeding programs and torture weapons.I slip out of bed carefully, not wanting to wake Ryder. He needs rest too, even if his alpha instincts want him awake and planning.The main room is bright with laptop screens and tactical maps. Luna, Phoenix, Gio, and Doc huddle around the table, speaking in low urgent voices."Jolie." Doc looks up when I enter. "You should be sleeping.""Couldn't." I move closer, studying the documents spread across the table. "What did you find?""Nothing good." Phoenix pulls up files on his laptop. "The Northern Academy is real. Located in Alaska, officially listed as a private boarding school for troubled wolves. It has been operating for thirty years.""Thirty years?" My stomach drops. "How many wolves do they have""At least two hundred

    Jolie pov "No." I pull it away. "I need to hear this.""Your father was so easy to seduce." Celeste continues. "Powerful men always are when you make them feel powerful. A few strategic touches, some calculated vulnerability, letting him think he's corrupting me instead of the other way around. Now he's completely wrapped around my finger."She stands, walking to the window. "And tonight, after I consummate this marriage very thoroughly, I'll have everything I was promised. Legal access to Nightshade Pack resources, political power through his connections, and the satisfaction of knowing I made you watch it all."Her expression shifts. Something colder sliding beneath the pleasant mask. "But here's what they didn't tell you at breakfast." She turns back to the camera. "The Council's plan wasn't just to study you, it was to breed you."My blood turns cold."Find a suitable male, force a bond, produce offspring with your empathic abilities under controlled conditions. Then study those
