Aria's POV

I woke up to sunlight burning through the curtains. My ass still throbbed from last night. Every shift on the mattress sent a fresh wave of pain through me. I groaned and buried my face in the pillow.

The door opened. I didn't need to look to know who it was. His scent hit me first. My wolf perked up immediately. Traitor.

"Get up." Damien's voice was calm. Too calm.

I stayed where I was. Face down. Naked except for the torn camisole that barely covered anything. My pride was the only thing I had left and I'd be damned if I gave him the satisfaction of jumping when he commanded.

His footsteps crossed the room. The mattress dipped as he sat on the edge. My muscles tensed.

"I said get up, little bird." His hand landed on my lower back. Light. Almost gentle. My skin tingled where he touched. "We have things to do today."

"Go away." My voice came out muffled against the pillow.

"Still defiant." He sounded amused. That pissed me off more than anything. "I like that. But you're st

  • Marked By My Captive Alpha   45. Brutal training

    Aria's POVDays went by.Damien trained me like I was preparing for war.He pushed harder than he did with any of his warriors. Harder than I thought was possible.Every morning, before the sun fully rose, he dragged me out of bed and onto the training grounds. Every night, I collapsed back into it bruised, exhausted, and furious.But stronger."Block!" he barked, coming at me with a strike that would've broken ribs if it landed.I twisted out of the way just in time, feeling the air whoosh past my side."Stop dodging and counter," he snapped."I'm trying!""Try harder."I snarled and lunged at him, aiming a punch at his jaw. He blocked it easily, grabbed my wrist, and twisted. Pain shot up my arm, and I dropped to one knee with a hiss."Predictable," he said coldly. "You telegraph every move."I yanked my wrist free and shoved him hard in the chest. He didn't budge."Maybe if you actually taught me instead of just beating the hell out of me, I'd get better," I snapped.His eyes flash

  • Marked By My Captive Alpha   44. Back to training

    Aria's POVI woke before the sun.My body ached a little, my throat was raw from crying, and my chest still felt like it had been split open and left to bleed. But underneath all of that was something else.Anger.I was done. Done letting other people decide what happened to me. Done being some fragile thing everyone else had to protect or use or break.I sat up carefully, trying not to wake Damien. He was sprawled on his back beside me, one arm thrown over his head, his chest rising and falling in steady breaths.But I wasn't crying anymore.I slipped out of bed and grabbed a pair of leggings and a sports bra from the dresser. My hands shook a little as I tied my hair back, but I forced them steady.By the time Damien stirred, I was already lacing up my sneakers."What are you doing?" he asked, his voice rough with sleep."Getting ready," I said without looking at him."For what?"I turned and met his gaze head-on. "Training."He sat up slowly, frowning. "You're still recovering.""I

  • Marked By My Captive Alpha   43. She was lied to

    Damien's POV The drive to Regan's pack felt longer than it should have.I sat in the back of the SUV, watching the road with rage burning in me. That's all I've been feeling lately. Rage. And I couldn't fucking help it. My mind ran through every method I'd use to extract information from that bastard.Aria had wanted to come.I'd told her no.She'd argued, said it was her right, but I shut it down before she could finish. The plan as to leave after she'd fallen asleep, but turns out she's been watching my every move, out of nothing but curiosity. She really wanted to know everything. I guess my promise wasn't exactly enough.Blake sat in the passenger seat, silent. My other men followed in two SUVs behind us, armed and ready. We weren't here for diplomacy. We were here for answers, and I'd get them no matter what it cost.When we pulled up to Regan's pack house, the wolves guarding the entrance stiffened.They recognized me.Good.I stepped out of the car, and the air shifted immedi

  • Marked By My Captive Alpha   42. Nothing, Apha

    Damien's POV Three of my men walked into my office—Vin, Toby, and Blake. I'd sent them out weeks ago to dig into Aria's past, scrape up anything that might explain the spell, the nightmares, the fragments of memories bleeding through her sleep.They looked like they'd been through hell, but what was begining to annoy me was the fact that their hands were empty.I leaned back in my chair, fingers steepled. "Well?"Marcus cleared his throat. "Nothing, Alpha."My jaw ticked. "Nothing.""We searched every registry. Every old pack archive. Every abandoned territory in the region." Blake stepped forward, expression grim. "There's no record of her. No birth certificate. No pack transfer logs. It's like she appeared out of thin air.""Impossible.""We know," Toby muttered. "But it's like she didn't exist before she showed up at that shithole pack."I pushed to my feet slowly, feeling the beast inside me coil tighter. "You're telling me that a werewolf just appears out of thin air? No fucking

  • Marked By My Captive Alpha   41. Pampered

    Aria's POV I woke up, wrapped around Damien like a vine. It's been so for days. My face pressed against his chest, his heavy arm across my waist. I should have pulled away if I didn't love it so much as I always pretended not to, but I didn't. Because despite everything, he'd become someone I could, I dare say, trust, and someone I feel safe with. Despite his arrogance and being a control freak and dominant, he'd held me through the worst nights I've had in weeks.I hated how much it mattered and how much I've come to cling to him. Since when did I become so clingy? "You awake?" His voice rumbled through his chest." Maybe."I tilted my head back to glare at him. Well, I shouldn't have. His eyes were already on me, dark and warm. I couldn't help the pull towards him. My wolf was not even here."Get dressed," he said, breaking the moment. "We're going out." I blinked."Out?" " You're annoying when you cry. I need a distraction before you start leaking all over me again."Heat flood

  • Marked By My Captive Alpha   40. Such a good girl

    Damien's POVThe moment the word "freedom" left her lips, my jaw clenched.I didn't like that word.Not from her mouth.Not when it meant putting distance between us.But before I could respond, Aria's expression shifted.That defiant glare melted into something else entirely.Something that made my wolf sit up and take notice.She walked toward me.Slowly.Her hips swayed in a way that had my hands gripping the edge of my desk."What if I want to be punished?"Her voice was low, sultry.The kind of tone that sent blood rushing south.She leaned down, her breath warm against my ear."It's rather late. I'd prefer to do something else."Fuck.I grabbed her before I could think twice.My hand wrapped around her throat, pulling her down to me as I crashed my mouth against hers.She gasped, and I took advantage, deepening the kiss until she was trembling in my arms.When I pulled back, her lips were swollen, her breathing ragged."You want a punishment, little bird?""Yes.""You're going t
