MARKED BY THE ALPHA CEO CHAPTER 156
Elara's point of view I nearly jumped out of my skin when the door burst open. “Aren't you ready to explore the fortress yet?” Henry stood in the doorway with that annoyingly relaxed expression on his face, as if he hadn't just invaded my room without warning.I stared at him for two seconds. Then my temper exploded. “How dare you?”His smile disappeared.“You can't just walk into my room like that!” I snapped, getting off the bed. “Do you even know what knocking is? Or is privacy some foreign concept to you?”Henry blinked. I pointed toward the door. “You could have knocked! What if I had been changing? What if I had been taking a shower? What if I simply didn't want anyone coming inside?”His eyebrows slowly rose. I folded my arms across my chest, refusing to back down. “There isn't even a lock on this door, and now you're proving exactly why there should be one!”Henry stared at me for a moment before his expression softened. “I apologize.”That caught me off guard. “I didn't mean

Elara's point of view I returned to my room with frustration simmering under my skin. Henry had practically dangled the possibility of exploring the fortress in front of me and then walked away with a vague, “I’ll consider it.” Consider it? What was there to consider? I wasn’t asking for the keys to his kingdom. I simply wanted to walk around a place where I had been kidnapped and imprisoned. Apparently, even that required approval from the man who had decided my freedom was a privilege.I shut the door behind me and let out a long breath. “Unbelievable.” I was exhausted anyway. Maybe a shower would clear my head. I walked toward the bathroom, reaching for the door before stopping suddenly.Something bothered me. I turned around and looked at my bedroom door. There was no lock. I frowned. I tried the handle from the inside. It opened immediately.My eyebrows shot up. “Wait. There isn't a lock?” I checked again, as if staring at it harder might magically make one appear. “Nyra?”She a

Elara's point of view Nyra's warning wouldn't leave me alone. You cannot leave the place where you were born. Those words had been repeating inside my head ever since she said them. Born here? In this fortress? That was impossible. At least, I desperately wanted it to be. But lately, my life had developed a terrible habit of making the impossible sound completely reasonable.Ancient crowns. Hidden chambers. Strange visions. A wolf spirit living inside me. A fortress that seemed to recognize me. And now Nyra was telling me I had been born here. Wonderful. Just wonderful. At this point, finding out that I had once been a queen of an ancient kingdom probably wouldn't even surprise me.I sighed and pushed myself off the bed. If Nyra wasn't going to give me answers, I would have to find them myself. I opened the door. The guards standing outside immediately looked at me. I looked at them. They looked at me. I looked at the corridor. They looked at each other."Don't worry," I said. "I'm n

Aéron's point of view The morning training ground was already filled with wolves when I heard her voice. Not with my ears. Inside my head.Aéron, I'm sorry.I froze. The wooden practice sword in my hand slipped slightly between my fingers. For one terrible second, everything around me became distant. The warriors, the sound of bodies hitting the training mats, Lucian shouting instructions, Emily struggling to maintain her stance, even the cold morning wind seemed to disappear.There was only her voice. I'm sorry.My heart slammed against my ribs. "No." The word escaped my lips.Fenrir stirred violently inside me. Something is wrong."I know."Our mate is afraid. His voice was no longer calm. He began pacing restlessly through my mind, his claws scraping against the darkness of our bond. Something is happening to her.I clenched my fists. "No! I won't let anything happen to her." I couldn't explain why, but every instinct inside me screamed that something had changed. Elara wouldn't a

Elara's point of view I woke to the feeling of warmth around my hand. For a few seconds, I didn't understand where I was. Then the unfamiliar ceiling came into focus, followed by the cold stone walls and the heavy curtains covering the windows. The fortress.My heart sank. I turned my head slowly and found Henry sitting in the chair beside my bed. He was asleep. His head had fallen slightly to one side, his dark hair messier than usual. One of his hands was still wrapped around mine. I stared at our hands.He hadn't touched me anywhere else. He hadn't tried anything. He had simply stayed. I remembered asking him to remain until I fell asleep because of the storm. I had expected him to leave the moment my breathing became steady. Instead, he had apparently stayed beside me throughout the night.A strange feeling settled in my chest. I didn't trust him. I couldn't. But I couldn't deny that he had respected the boundary I had placed between us.You shouldn't be doing this. Nyra's voice

Elara's point of view I barely made it back to my room before the questions started attacking my mind all over again. The trembling beneath my feet. The ancient carving. The white wolf. The black wolf with those terrifying violet eyes. And Henry.Most of all, Henry. I had seen the fear in his eyes. It had lasted only for a second, but I had seen it. Henry White had been afraid. That realization made me stop beside the window.For days, I had believed this fortress belonged to him. He was the one who brought me here. He controlled the doors, the guards, the tunnels, the strange magic surrounding the mountain. He acted as though this entire place was an extension of himself.But what if it wasn't?What if Henry wasn't controlling the fortress?What if something inside it was controlling him?The thought sent a shiver through me. Ever since I had arrived, strange things had been happening. The walls had reacted to me. The ancient carvings had shown me visions. The fortress had trembled
