Chapter 41: The Price of Poison

DAMIEN’S POV

I caught Anya before she hit the ground as her body went limp in my arms like all the fight drained out of her at once. Her head fell against my chest as her black hair spilled over my suit. I carried her like she weighed nothing, because indeed she did, she was too light, too fragile after what I did. The hall doors swung shut behind us slowly as it cut off the gasps and stares, but I felt them burning into my back anyway.

I turned sharply with h

    Chapter 149: Silent Agony ANYA’S POVI walked down the hallway toward the study with my hand resting on my belly. The pup had been active all morning and the movement usually brought me comfort. Today it only reminded me how alone I felt despite Damien being back under the same roof. I needed to speak with him. Even a few honest words would help. I raised my hand to knock when a sharp scream tore through the heavy door. “Damien!” I called as I twisted the handle. The door swung open and I rushed inside. He lay on the floor beside the desk with his body twisted and one arm flung out. His eyes stayed closed and his chest rose in shallow jerks. I dropped to my knees beside him and touched his face. “Damien. Wake up. Please wake up.” He gave no response. His skin felt hot under my fingers and a thin line of sweat ran down his temple. Panic surged through me. I pushed to my feet and ran to the doorway. “Help! Someone help me! Gavin! Guards!” My voice echoed down the corridor. Footsteps

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    148. Fractured Inside

    Chapter 148: Fractured Inside DAMIEN’S POV I woke before dawn with a heavy weight on my chest. Anya slept curled on her side with one hand resting protectively over her belly. The sight should have warmed something in me. Instead a cold knot twisted tighter in my gut. I slipped out of bed quietly and dressed in fresh clothes. Every movement felt mechanical. I grabbed a shirt and pulled it over my head while keeping my eyes away from her sleeping form. The voice whispered again in the back of my mind. She is the enemy, she always has been. Hate her.I shook my head hard and left the room without looking back. The hallway stretched long and quiet under soft wall lights. My boots made little sound on the thick carpet. I needed space. Air. Anything except the pull I felt toward her and the stronger push that told me to run. Gavin rounded the corner ahead of me. He stopped short when he saw me and offered a respectful nod. “Alpha. You are up early. Is everything alright?”I glanced beh

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    147. Stranger in Familiar Skin

    Chapter 147: Stranger in Familiar Skin ANYA’S POV I closed the bedroom door behind us and leaned against it for a moment. My body still ached from Cassandra’s attack but the pain in my chest felt heavier than any bruise. Damien stood near the window with his back to me. Dirt streaked his arms and neck. His hair hung wild and unkempt past his shoulders. The left side of his face caught the lamplight and showed the old scar that ran from his temple down across his cheek and pulled slightly at the corner of his eye. He kept that side turned away from me as if he could hide it.I took a slow step forward. “Damien.”He stiffened but did not turn. I crossed the room anyway and reached for him. My arms slid around his waist from behind and I pressed my cheek to his back. He smelled of dust and sweat and something metallic. For one heartbeat I let myself believe everything would snap back into place. Then he shifted sideways with a quiet grunt and stepped out of my hold.“I should wash fir

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    146. Echoes Returned

    Chapter 146: Echoes Returned DAMIEN’S POV Darkness pressed on me from every side. I floated in nothing and everything at once. Cold wrapped my limbs while faint silver threads drifted past my face. Then a sound cut through the void. A woman screamed my name. The voice cracked with terror and reached straight into my chest. I tried to move toward it but chains of shadow held me down. The scream came again louder this time mixed with sobs and desperate pleas.“Please Damien. Come back. Save us. The baby. She is killing our baby.” Pain exploded behind my eyes. I thrashed against the darkness and felt something inside me snap. The voice belonged to someone important. It pulled me harder than any force I knew. My body burned as light pierced the black veil around me. I clawed forward through layers of nothing until the world slammed back into focus with brutal force.I stood in the middle of ruined stone walls with torches flickering around me. Blood roared in my ears. A massive wolf pi

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    145. Broken Stone

    Chapter 145: Broken Stone ANYA’S POVI parked the black SUV at the edge of the clearing and killed the engine. The ruins loomed ahead under the moonlight like jagged teeth jutting from the earth. My hands stayed steady on the wheel for one long breath before I stepped out and closed the door with a soft click. Iris and Gavin waited in their own vehicle further back with the others, ready to move on my signal. I walked forward alone across cracked pavement and scattered rubble. Each step echoed in the quiet night.Cassandra stood in the center of the old stone chamber with torches burning around her. Damien’s body lay on a raised slab behind her wrapped in black cloth. She smiled when she saw me approach. The expression carried no warmth, only sharp satisfaction.“You actually came,” she said as she circled slowly around the slab. “I thought the dream I sent might scare you off. Guess you are still the same foolish girl chasing things you cannot keep.” I stopped ten feet away and kep

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    144. Threads of Resolve

    Chapter 144: Threads of ResolveANYA’S POVMorning light filtered weakly through the heavy curtains and painted pale stripes across the floor of my chambers. I sat on the edge of the bed with my hands pressed to my belly and tried to shake the lingering horror from the nightmare. My eyes felt swollen and raw. Every breath still carried the echo of my own screams from the dark hours. I pushed to my feet and walked to the basin to splash cold water on my face. The shock of it grounded me enough to steady my trembling fingers. Iris entered without knocking, carrying a tray of bread, honey, and the familiar jar from Elowen. She took one look at me and set the tray down hard. “You look like you fought a dozen battles in your sleep. Talk to me.” I dried my face with a rough cloth and met her worried gaze. “The dream felt too real. Damien chased me through the forest. He wanted to tear the pup from my body. He said I lost everything and deserved nothing. I begged him to stop but he kept co

I lay there for a moment, listening to nothing but silence… and the faint echo of voices I thought I’d heard sometime during the night. Raised tones, tension, footsteps rushing past my door.
