Chapter 11 - Enid's POV

مؤلف: Laura
last update آخر تحديث: 2025-12-06 21:29:25

As days passed, Asher’s quietness ate away at me like a creeping toxin. He moved around the compound as if I were invisible, all commands and chilly glances that consistently dodged meeting my eyes. Whenever I deliberately stepped in his way he acted confused or abruptly recalled an appointment elsewhere. He was a terribly bad performer or he assumed I was foolish enough to believe him.

Spoiler: I wasn’t.

Yet the more he dismissed me, the stronger the uncertainty within my chest grew. Perhaps Nina was mistaken. Perhaps I was only envisioning the sparks, the attraction, the connection ripping me apart whenever he passed by. Perhaps he truly considered me fragile. Perhaps he viewed me as the girl who couldn’t keep pace, who required protection, who wasn’t deserving of being claimed.

That idea, harsh and degrading lodged itself firmly.

Therefore I acted as any young wolf would.

I was spying.

I followed patrol routines closely. I eavesdropped by the meeting rooms. I stayed close to the ga

  • I want this Alpha   Chapter 24 - Asher's POV

    The compound had started to feel like a place that was building up a lot of tension. It seemed like something bad was going to happen. It was like a pot of water that was getting hotter and hotter and it felt like it was going to boil over at any moment.The engines were really loud now. Patrol bikes were always going at all hours of the day and night. Their headlights shone through the darkness, like eyes that were always watching. The people who used to be happy and laugh were now just standing in corners looking worried. When I walked by everyone stopped talking. The air even felt different, it was heavy and uncomfortable. It was like people could sense that something was wrong even before they really thought about it. The engines, the patrol bikes and the whole situation were just making everyone feel uneasy and scared.I really did not like that feeling. It meant that my pack felt like they were being hunted. My pack was what mattered to me. When they felt like they were in dange

  • I want this Alpha   Chapter 23 - Enid's POV

    Sleep took me the way storms usually did—sudden, violent, and with absolutely no concern for my emotional wellbeing.One moment I was staring at the ceiling, replaying Asher’s carefully blank face in the council chamber like a bad rerun I couldn’t turn off, and the next, fire swallowed me whole.Not his fire.Mine.I stood in the middle of a forest I didn’t recognize, trees towering like silent witnesses. Silver flames rolled off my hands in lazy curls, beautiful and terrifying, licking bark and leaves without burning them the way normal fire should. The ground trembled beneath my boots, responding to me like it had been waiting for instructions.“This is new,” I muttered, except my voice echoed wrong, layered with something deeper. Older.The flames moved when I thought about them. Swept outward, racing between the trees, setting shadows running. The shadows didn’t scream. They whispered.Enid.My name slid through the air, soft and coaxing, like a secret shared in the dark.“Nope,”

  • I want this Alpha   Chapter 22 - Asher's POV

    The council didn’t so much deliberate as it did fracture.Voices overlapped, rose, snapped. The old problems that people had with each other started to come out. They made it sound like they were just worried. Fear was hiding behind what sounded like reasons. I stood at the head of the room, hands braced on the table that had scratches all over it, jaw locked so tight it ached.“She’s blessed,” one elder insisted, palm thumping the table. “The Moon doesn’t mark wolves without reason.”“And the Moon doesn’t clean up the mess when power goes wrong,” another shot back. “You saw the flames. You felt them. That wasn’t normal.”Nothing about her has ever been normal, my wolf snarled.I said nothing.Inside me, my wolf paced like a caged thing, claws scraping the inside of my ribs. Claim her. Stand between her and every threat. Burn the room down if you have to. His rage wasn’t subtle. Neither was his fear.“She’s an unstable weapon,” someone else said, not even bothering to lower their voic

  • I want this Alpha   Chapter 21 - Enid's POV

    I learned how fast a pack could turn on one of its own.When I walked past, conversations bent and broke. Some wolves dipped their heads, eyes bright with something close to reverence. Others stared too long, nostrils flaring, fear sharp and sour.“Don’t look at them,” Nina muttered at my side. “They’re acting like you’re going to sneeze fire.”“I might,” I said. “I haven’t ruled it out.”She snorted, loud on purpose, and hooked her arm through mine as if daring anyone to comment. It helped. A little.By midday, runners were everywhere. The word emergency traveled faster than any bike. Council gathering. Mandatory. Immediate. The phrase sat heavy in my chest. I had spent my life fixing engines and minding my business. Suddenly, I was an agenda item.We reached the main hall and the smell hit me first, old wood, oil, sweat, history. Elders lined the long table, faces carved from time and bad decisions. Voices overlapped, sharp and clipped.“It was uncontrolled.”“It was a blessing.”“F

  • I want this Alpha   Chapter 20 - Enid's POV

    As soon as I got to my room, I rushed to take a quick shower. Then I lay on my bed, within a twinkle of an eye, I had fallen asleep.I had a dream.Not the gentle type that settled quietly over the earth on full moons, but the intense vibrant kind that scorched and pulsed. Moonlight enfolded me as if it recognized me, as if it had been anticipating me. It flowed across my skin in currents, warm and unstoppable, igniting every nerve until I lost track of where I stopped and the light started.Asher crouched down in front of me.Not the Alpha who appeared proud and aloof in the sunlight, but the man burdened by the responsibility of leadership. His head hung, dark hair drifting over his eyes, his shoulders exposed and traced with subtle silver streaks that shimmered with each inhalation. When he raised his eyes, his stare met mine with a respect that took my breath away.“You’ve always been mine " he said, voice. Assured. No mockery. No barriers. Only honesty.His hand rose, fingers

  • I want this Alpha   Chapter 19 - Asher's POV

    The next day, I stationed two guards outside Enid’s workshop before sunrise, when the compound was still yawning itself awake and the smell of oil clung to the air. I told myself it was strategy. Reinforced security. Heightened alert. Standard Alpha decisions in unstable times.None of it stopped my wolf from pacing like I had locked him in a cage made of bone.“Rotation every four hours,” I said, voice steady. “No one in without authorization.”One of the guards, Finn, tilted his head. “Including the mechanic herself?”I shot him a look sharp enough to shave steel. “Especially the mechanic herself.”He opened his mouth, thought better of it, and nodded. Smart man. Curious wolves tended to live shorter lives.I turned to leave and nearly ran straight into the problem I was pretending I didn’t have.Enid stood at the edge of the workshop, grease-stained sleeves rolled up, dark hair tied back in a messy knot that always made something in my chest ache. Her eyes flicked from me to the g
