Ava's POV

By the time I walked out of the bathroom, feeling raw and scraped clean, the bedroom was empty. Just like last night, after he had finished, he was nowhere to be seen. No trace of him remained, save for the lingering scent, the unsettling chill on his side of the bed, and the indelible stain of crimson on the sheets. His absence was a louder statement than any confrontation could have been.

I forced myself to move through the motions, each action a painstaking effort, a battle against the overwhelming inertia of despair. I dressed mechanically, my fingers clumsy as I chose a simple, high-necked blouse and a long, flowing skirt – anything to cover as much skin as possible, to create a barrier between myself and the world. I fixed my hair with practiced, numb movements, pulling it back severely from my face, as if to strip away any vulnerability. I applied light makeup, more a mask than cosmetics, attempting to hide the exhaustion that clung to my features like a second skin

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King     “I will kill you both. Slowly. Brutally. And you will wish you had never been born.”

    Damian’s POV The raw, metallic tang of blood still clung to my skin, an iron-rich scent that mixed unsettlingly with the faint, sophisticated cologne I’d applied this morning. It was a potent, visceral reminder of the unleashed beast within, a testament to the brief, violent rupture in my meticulously cultivated control. My right hand, a dull throb beneath the freshly applied bandage, pulsed with a rhythm that mirrored the lingering echoes of the confrontation. Ava had wrapped it—too tight at first, her fingers trembling visibly, then hesitating, pulling back, only to continue with a focused determination as she tried to make it right. Her hands had shaken, yes, but she hadn’t run. She had stayed. That was… unexpected. Truly unexpected. A variable I hadn't accounted for in my calculations. I sat in my high-backed leather chair, the polished mahogany desk between us now marred with faint, iridescent smudges of crimson, glistening subtly in the sharp morning light. The scattered pap

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    “Don’t tell me what I should or shouldn’t do, Ava. Not ever.”

    Ava's POV I grabbed his arm then, desperate, my fingers digging into the hard, unyielding muscle of his bicep, tugging hard, pulling with all my strength. “Damian! Enough! You’re going to kill him!” His head whipped toward me, his eyes wild and dark—a wolf caught mid-hunt, pulled from its kill. For a terrifying second, I thought he would turn on me too, that his rage would encompass me in its blind fury. His gaze, primal and unseeing, swept over my face. But then, his breathing slowed, just slightly, a ragged, shuddering gasp, his broad chest heaving. The fire in his eyes dimmed by a fraction, replaced by something cold, calculating, as though he was slowly returning to himself from a dark place. James slumped to the floor, a broken, whimpering heap, barely conscious, blood dripping steadily down his face, forming a small, macabre pool on the marble as he groaned, a sound of profound pain and defeat. Damian finally released him, shoving him aside with a raw disgust, as if he w

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    He slammed him into the edge of his massive, heavy desk this time, the sharp corner digging cruelly into James’s back, eliciting another grunt of pain.

    Ava’s POV The morning at the office started with silence—the kind that stretched thin and brittle, making the very air feel heavy and suffocating, vibrating with an unspoken tension. It was the calm before a storm, a stillness so profound it hummed with menace. Damian walked ahead of me, a dark, formidable presence, like a storm barely contained within the perfectly tailored confines of his suit. His jaw was set so hard it looked like the bone might crack under the immense pressure, his profile a chiseled mask of barely restrained fury. I trailed behind him, a few steps back, my heels clicking softly on the polished marble floor of the executive level, the sound unnaturally loud in the hushed corridor. My eyes were fixed on the intricate patterns of the tiles, pretending not to feel the pervasive weight of everyone’s stares, the quick, averted glances, the palpable fear that preceded his every entrance. The hushed whispers died as we passed, replaced by an almost reverent silenc

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    You just need to understand. You just need to obey.

    Ava's POV “Yes, you do.” His voice was absolute, dismissive of my pathetic attempt at denial. He knew. He always knew. His fingers tightened on my knee, just enough to make me acutely aware of how easily he could hurt me if he chose, how fragile my bone felt beneath his grip. It wasn't painful, but the implied threat was agonizing. “I see it in your eyes, Ava,” he murmured, his voice dropping even lower, becoming a conspiratorial whisper that stole the air from my lungs. “That little spark. That flicker of defiance. That pathetic fantasy you cling to—that if you behave just right, say the right words, smile at the right times, pretend to be the perfect little wife… eventually you’ll be free. Eventually, you’ll escape me.” I swallowed hard, my breath catching in my throat, my heart hammering against my ribs, a trapped drum. He saw through me, through every defense, every carefully constructed wall. He was dissecting my every hope, crushing it under his heel. He leaned even cl

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    The Drive: A Cage of Velvet and Steel

    Ava’s POV The heavy door of the luxury car shut behind me with a dull, resonant thunk, the sound sealing me inside the suffocating silence of the cabin. It wasn't truly silent, of course; the muffled hum of the engine, the distant whisper of city traffic, and the frantic drum of my own heartbeat filled the space. But in here, everything felt muted, oppressed. The cool, supple leather seats provided no comfort, only a stark reminder of the opulence of my gilded cage. The faint, masculine scent of cedar and Damian's specific cologne clung to every surface, saturating the air, an invisible, inescapable declaration of his pervasive presence. It was his space, his scent, his dominion. I slid as far toward the tinted window as possible, pressing my shoulder against the cool glass, desperate for any sliver of personal space. My hands were clasped tightly in my lap, knuckles white, fingers intertwined so fiercely that they ached, a futile attempt to steady the tremor that ran through

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    Marriage suits you both. It’s truly wonderful to see such affection between newlyweds.

    Ava’s POV I lingered at the entrance of the opulent dining room, my fingers twisting the hem of my blouse so tightly the fabric threatened to tear. My reflection in the polished surface of the grand mahogany table showed a pale, haunted face, eyes shadowed with exhaustion and unshed tears. The morning light, usually a gentle friend, now spilled through the towering bay windows with brutal clarity, too bright, too revealing, exposing every tremor, every faint bruise on my skin that no amount of scrubbing could erase. His grandmother was already seated at the head of the long, gleaming table, an island of serene elegance amidst my turmoil. Her silk dressing gown flowed around her, and a delicate china teacup, so fragile it seemed it might shatter with a breath, rested between her manicured fingers, steam curling upward in lazy tendrils. She was a picture of composed domesticity, utterly oblivious to the raw, visceral nightmare that had consumed my night. Her sharp, intelligent e
