Kerris POV

My first stop after I leave the house is the Chemist. It is no secret anymore that my family is very broke. Everyone is acquainted with dad's condition and know that his health has totally drained his purse.

Many are sympathetic, including my boss, Mrs Morrison. She is understanding and kind as ever when I explain the new job offer. She agrees to adjusts the roaster, so that I now have to work the afternoon shift.

It's 8:32 am when I enter the towers. I'm already late by only two mi

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   74. Alpha's future

    Marissa POV“The Alpha King and I… along with the others, took care of it." Caden pauses to look ahead. "A small pack of outlandish wolves from the South was making trouble, trying to make a name for themselves by taking a whole piece out of King Zach’s hide. They were sneaking into the lands and infiltrating settlements, hoping to slowly get revenge on the West Coast and become our oppressors again, like they were before.”He speaks so casually about it that, for a moment, I simply stare at him. He's telling me about the attack as though he is simply telling me about something ordinary that happened during his day. That makes my heart flutter. There is something intimate about listening to him talk about his work, about where he has been and what he has been doing. Isn't this what couples do at the end of the day? Share the little pieces of their lives with each other. For a few precious moments, I forget that I am a prisoner and allow myself to feel like his mate.But beneath that

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   73. A walk to tomorrow 2

    Marissa POVThe castle is far behind us now. The sounds of the grounds have disappeared completely, leaving only the rustle of leaves beneath our feet and the occasional movement of wolves somewhere in the distance.The crescent moon hangs above us. And strangely, the thought of the rejection rite has begun to fade. With every step, I'm becoming more aware of him instead. Aware he is male. Mine. My fated mate.Since Fate joined us, we've never simply walked like this. We've never held hands without anger between us, or someone else's expectations hanging over our heads, without his parents, my status, or the circumstances of my imprisonment forcing themselves into the space between us.Tonight, I don't feel any of that. There is only Caden. And me.Walking beneath the crescent moon as though we're simply two people who chose to take a walk together."Where are we going?" I ask softly, my voice barely carrying through the trees."I want to show you something." He glances at me, and the

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   72. A walk to tomorrow

    Marissa POVWe haven't made it far into the woods when Caden suddenly lets go of my hand and slows his pace. He stands still for a moment, his head turning slightly as though he is listening for something I cannot hear. His senses seem to stretch beyond the near darkness surrounding us, searching every direction before he finally takes a deep breath. Whatever he is looking for, he seems satisfied it's there. Or isn't.I glance around too, but all I see are trees, shadows, and the faint silver glow of the new moon slipping between the branches. I know better than to assume we're truly alone. Royal guards could be hidden somewhere nearby, watching without making their presence known. Still, the woods feel strangely quiet around us, almost as though the entire world has fallen away and left only the two of us beneath the night sky.When I look up, the crescent moon is already visible between the branches.My stomach twists.This is it.The reason he brought me here comes rushing back i

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   71. Alpha dad's pride (cont.)

    Gareth's chest tightens. Tyrel.Even after all this time, hearing his name still finds the wound Gareth has been trying to bury. He looks away, his jaw working as memories he hasn't invited come rushing back.He failed his first son. That is what he has always believed. He's determined not to repeat the same mistake with Caden.That is why he's doing all he can to make things right before Caden can make a mistake Gareth can't undo. Just like Tyrel did."It's time you stopped blaming yourself and started paying attention to everything you've done right," Zach says. "I'm sure you feel as though you failed with your first child, and now you're terrified of repeating the same mistakes. But look at him, Gareth." Zach nods toward the trees. "You did not fail this one. He's turning out great. You should be proud of him."Gareth follows his gaze. Caden is almost out of sight now.His son. Alpha Caden Stone.The pride returns, stronger this time, fighting against the uneasiness twisting throug

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   71. Alpha dad's pride

    Gareth (Third-person POV)Gareth distractedly hands his car keys to the Gamma waiting to park his vehicle, barely acknowledging the male's greeting. His attention is fixed on the two figures disappearing beneath the trees ahead, their hands joined as they walk side by side.Caden. And Marissa Blue.What the fuck is his son doing holding that girl's hand in public?Gareth's jaw tightens as he watches them move farther away. He has been away from IronFang for several days, dealing with matters in Moon Shadow and taking care of business that cannot be left unattended. He has also told himself that giving Linda some space is the sensible thing to do. She had been visibly shaken after Caden caught him in her hotel suite, and although she insisted what happened between them was a mistake that should never have happened, Gareth knew better than to believe that a single night could erase two decades of history.Everything between them has changed.He is no longer merely the man who fathered

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   70. A sunset promise

    Marissa POVCongratulations for what?The question barely registers before Chief Rockwell glances past us toward Milo. Whatever passes between them happens through a mindlink because Milo's expression changes almost immediately. He gives a small nod and starts walking in the opposite direction.I wonder briefly if he's been reprimanded for taking me to the indoor river slash private pool. I can't bring myself to care.Milo will survive an angry Chief Gamma. I'm not sure I will survive what Caden is about to do to me.Once we're far enough from the others, the silence between us becomes almost unbearable. The path stretches ahead through the castle grounds, and every sound seems magnified—the crunch of our footsteps, the rustle of leaves, the faint wind moving through the trees.Caden seems to feel it too.He breaks the silence first.“That Gamma promised you something, didn't he?”I look at him, confused. “What?”“Come on, Rissa. I know he made you some kind of promise.” His tone car
