Alexander’s POV

The academy changed the farther we went.

Not abruptly. Not dramatically. It shed familiarity the way a living thing shed skin—layer by layer, corridor by corridor—until the warmth of shared spaces and student wards thinned into something colder, older, and far less forgiving.

These halls weren’t meant for comfort.

They were meant for transit.

For containment.

For things that were never supposed to linger.

Our footsteps echoed differently here. The stone absorbed sound instead of reflecting it, swallowing noise as if secrecy itself had been built into the foundations. The sigils etched along the walls weren’t decorative or instructional; they were functional, blunt, and old. Some I recognized. Others twisted away from comprehension, glyphs warped by pre-Collapse logic that didn’t care whether the modern world understood them.

Damian walked ahead now.

Not because he needed to lead—but because these passages recognized him. Doors didn’t open so much as stand aside. Wards

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    Knowing isn’t the same as winning.

    Alexander’s POV I didn’t move.Not because I couldn’t—but because I understood, with a clarity that bordered on cruelty, that the moment I did, something would end.So I stayed where I was.Kneeling beside the infirmary bed. Her hand in mine. The faint rise and fall of her chest setting the pace of the world. I memorized it all with the desperation of someone who knew memory was about to become currency.Her fingers were warm. Calloused in places they hadn’t been months ago. Proof of survival. Proof of adaptation. Proof that the girl who had stumbled into the academy carrying fire she didn’t understand had become something sharper.Something dangerous.Something the world was already circling.The bond hummed low between us—not the blazing conduit it became in battle, not the electric snap of shared power—but something quieter. Deeper. A resonance that felt like gravity rather than flame.Us, it whispered.Not prophecy. Not destiny.Choice.I breathed it in and let everything else fa

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    What’s the plan?

    Alexander’s POV The night deepened around the infirmary.Not silence—never that—but a muted hush, the kind that came after catastrophe, when even magic treaded carefully. The runes dimmed to a twilight glow. Somewhere far above, a bell chimed once, marking an hour no one would truly sleep through.I shifted slightly, careful not to wake her.Elara lay curled on her side now, lashes dark against her cheeks, her grip loosened but unbroken—fingers still hooked into my sleeve like an instinct she hadn’t bothered to unlearn. The bond between us had settled again, warm and low, a shared heartbeat rather than a burning line.I should’ve rested.Instead, I listened.To the academy’s breath. To the subtle tick of healing wards. To the storm inside me, no longer raging—but far from calm.Witnesses.The word echoed again, heavier now that I understood it.This wasn’t about ruling or destroying. It was about being seen. About choice made under pressure so immense it rewrote history simply by exi

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    And not without a fight.

    Alexander’s POV The inner halls swallowed us whole.Light dimmed as we crossed the threshold, the academy’s living magic drawing inward, conserving strength the way a wounded animal tucked itself tight. The floors were warm beneath our boots—residual energy bleeding back into the veins of the structure—and every step echoed louder than it should have.People watched from doorways.Not openly. Not boldly.But I felt them the way I felt pressure before a storm—side glances, held breaths, the ripple of whispered names that died the moment Elara’s gaze flicked their way.Axis.The word scraped against my skull again.I hated how accurate it felt.Damian walked a half-step behind us now, not leading, not guarding—flanking. A subtle shift, but a deliberate one. Anyone who knew him would notice. Anyone who mattered would understand the message.Untouchable. For now.When we reached the junction where the corridors split—east toward the infirmary, west toward the upper towers—Damian stopped.

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    You should both be unconscious.

    Alexander’s POV The academy exhaled.Not relief—reckoning.The wards steadied, their frantic flicker smoothing into a low, constant glow, but the air remained heavy, charged with the knowledge that something irreversible had shifted. Ash drifted down like black snow, settling into the cracks in the stone where the harbinger had stood, staining the floor with the memory of its presence.Around us, professors emerged cautiously from behind shattered sigils and half-collapsed barriers. Some stared at the scorch marks, others at the ceiling still faintly humming with residual thunder—but most of them looked at us.At Elara.At me.Not as students.Not as weapons.As an axis.Damian broke the silence with a sharp inhale that turned into a command. “Secure the wing. Reinforce the eastern wards with triple anchors. I want rotating patrols until dawn—no gaps.” His gaze swept the corridor, alpha authority snapping everything back into motion. “Anyone who felt the breach reports immediately. N

  • Contract Marriage To The Alpha King    They’re adapting.

    Alexander’s POV The corridor beyond the chamber had changed.Not damaged—warped.The wards etched into the stone pulsed erratically now, some flaring bright enough to sting my eyes, others guttering like dying stars. Shadows clung to the corners where light should have reached, stretching too long, bending wrong. The academy I’d grown up in—the place that smelled like old books, polish, and magic—now reeked of iron and ozone and something older.Predatory.Elara stiffened beside me, her flames dimming to a controlled glow beneath her skin. I felt the shift instantly through the bond, my storm responding, lightning tightening instead of striking wild.Together, the bond whispered.Students crowded the far end of the hall, professors herding them back with drawn sigils and bared claws. When they saw us—really saw us—the whispers died.Not fear.Awe.And something dangerously close to hope.Because they could feel it too.The bond.The storm-and-flame resonance vibrating through the sto
