Rosalie’s POV

The first gray, fractured shards of dawn were just beginning to pierce through the heavy velvet curtains of the master suite when consciousness slowly pulled me from the dark.

I braced myself before my eyes even opened, my mind instantly preparing for the brutal, agonizing stiffness of a night spent on polished obsidian. But as the fog of sleep cleared, a strange, jarring realization made my thoughts stall.

I wasn’t freezing.

In fact, a deep, heavy warmth was

  • Sold To The Monster Alpha   64. The Architecture of the Cage

    Rosalie’s POVThe harsh morning light cut through the gaps in the heavy velvet curtains like the blade of a fresh silver dagger, slicing across the master mattress and forcing my eyes open.My first instinct was the scent. Mint, cedar, and the heavy, metallic tang of an ancient, suffocating power.I was still pinned against Dominic’s chest. The massive, unyielding furnace of his body had radiated heat into my frozen spine throughout the entire night, keeping the lethal frost of the Moonshade toxin from permanently locking down my wolf core.A sudden, sharp wave of reality hit my brain, and the fragile peace of our midnight confessions dissolved instantly. This was the man who had choked me in the mud yesterday. This was the tyrant who had locked the iron chains around my wrists until the flesh tore.Furious at the sudden, involuntary wave of comfort my body had found in his arms, I gritted my teeth and threw my weight forward, trying to aggressively push awa

  • Sold To The Monster Alpha   63. The Currency of Truth

    Dominic's POVThe embers in the grand hearth were burning down to a deep, bleeding crimson, casting long, fractured shadows across the ceiling of the master bedroom. It was three in the morning. The room was deathly quiet, save for the frantic, erratic rhythm of my heart beating against her back.Rosalie was fully conscious now, her skin absorbing my heat, but her mind was already clawing its way back to the defensive. I felt the subtle, sharp tension in her muscles as she tried to create a single inch of distance between us under the heavy wolf furs."Are you holding onto me so tightly because you're afraid I'll slip out of your arms and run away again?" she whispered into the dark, her voice trembling but laced with a deliberate, mocking edge. "Don't worry. This time I won't steal anything important. Maybe just some clothes and some cash for the road."My jaw tightened against her hair. "Stop trying to incriminate yourself on purpose.""You want to hear th

  • Sold To The Monster Alpha   62. The Sovereignty of the Flesh

    Dominic’s POVI didn't bat an eye as she fell silent, but beneath the surface, my mind was racing through a labyrinth of her contradictions. I still couldn’t decide if she was hiding a master thief behind a victim's mask, or if this fractured reality was truly her.Usually, my instincts as an Alpha King were flawless. They had never failed me. And the very first time I had looked at Rosalie, my baseline instinct hadn't been to see an enemy—it was that she was an abused girl, a fragile soul forced into my territory against her will, wanting absolutely nothing to do with being my Luna or being near me. I had genuinely believed that.That was why the intercepted phone call had completely thrown me off. Hearing her speak of a plan had made me think she faked every single thing. But then, the memory of her getting poisoned right after she became my Luna flashed through my head—she had hallucinated her trauma of abuse in front of me. She couldn't have faked that. The terror

  • Sold To The Monster Alpha   61. The Panic of the King

    Dominic’s POVThe mechanical detachment I had forced upon my mind over the last fourteen hours disintegrated in a single, catastrophic heartbeat.Under my palm, her skin wasn’t burning with the righteous fury of a trapped mastermind. It wasn’t hot with the fever of a infected wound. It was marble. It was a stagnant, radiating frost that leaked into my bones, a terrifying, lifeless chill that made my wolf instantly let out a sharp, frantic whine of pure, unadulterated terror.The heavy iron chains weren’t rattling because she was bracing herself for my next strike. They were vibrating because her fragile frame was caught in the grip of a violent, erratic tremor, her teeth clicking together so hard the sound echoed off the stone headboard. Her breathing was a series of shallow, fractured gasps, her chest barely rising beneath my hand.“Rosalie?” My voice didn’t sound like a king’s. It was raw, cracked, and punctured by a sudden, suffocating panic that clawed at my

  • Sold To The Monster Alpha   60. The Sovereignty of Iron

    Dominic’s POVThe heavy oak door handle was cold beneath my palm, just a fraction of an inch from locking into place. I had delivered my ultimatum. I had left her wired, shivering, and suspended over the razor-edge of an unfulfilled peak, confident that the cold mechanical reality of her captivity would finally force her brilliant, calculating mind to fracture. I had told her to burn. I had reestablished the boundary between master and captive, reminding her that her razor-sharp tongue had no power against the structural walls of my kingdom.Then, her voice cut through the quiet vault of the master suite like a razor blade slicing through raw canvas.*”Fuck you…”*My fingers froze against the polished brass. A sudden, violent spike of adrenaline hit my bloodstream, turning my vision sharp at the edges. My wolf, a beast that had spent a lifetime watching grown warriors drop to their knees in absolute, trembling submission, let out a low, dangerous vibration agains

  • Sold To The Monster Alpha   59. The Torture of Denial

    Rosalie’s POVThe sheer, lethal weight of my defiance hung in the heavy air of the master suite, a physical barrier that kept his massive chest hovering inches above mine. Dominic’s golden eyes remained locked on my face, searching the blurred, tear-filled depths of my gaze for a single tremor of fear.He didn’t find one.He didn’t keep the dark pivot of his mind a secret. Leaning down until his lips virtually brushed the wet, tear-stained skin of my cheek, his deep voice vibrated straight into my skull with a terrifying, quiet intimacy.“You think I fear your threats, Rose? I fear nothing,” he rumbled, his hot breath fanning across my neck. “But I want your surrender, not your ghost. If I take you like this, I turn you into a corpse that lives only to see me bleed. I destroy the magnificent, defiant mind that I am going to bend to my will until you know exactly who defeated you. I want you awake, and I want you whole when you finally crawl to me.
