Damian POV

The church was full of gold and breathing bodies. I stood at the front and watched her walk.

There are few things in the world that make me lose my center. She is one of them. People think they know me—cold, ruthless, a man who takes what he wants and leaves no loose ends. They don't see the part of me that has fought small wars to keep a person alive in my world. Ariel was the war that had taught me mercy and its opposite—desire.

    The words were sugar and garbage. I kept my face smooth. My hands stayed wrapped around Damien’s arm. Ethan’s eyes flicked, unreadable. He looked like someone whose strings were being pulled. There was a blankness in him that made my gut drop. “You shouldn’t have come,” I said softly. It was a warning, not a plea. “Oh, Ariel.” Lily’s voice was silk. “You think you can command me with warmth and pretty words?” She stepped closer, and where she moved the air seemed to thin. The house felt smaller. The hairs rose on my arms. Damien tightened his hold on me. His jaw clenched until the muscles at his throat stood out. I felt his hunger and his temper coiling. He stepped forward like a shield. “Ethan,” he said, cold as winter. “Step aside.” Ethan’s shoulders twitched. For one breath he looked like my old Ethan — the boy I once knew who laughed at stupid jokes and be

    Ariel POV: The house felt alive. Every corner, every shadow seemed to whisper secrets. Even though Damien and I had returned from the wedding, the air was thick with tension. Lily’s presence lingered, her energy slithering through the edges of my awareness like smoke I couldn’t fully chase away. I leaned against Damien as we entered the living room. “I can feel her,” I murmured. My voice was calm, but inside, my chest pounded with both fear and anticipation. He tightened his hand around mine. “Good,” he said, voice low and dangerous. “Let her come. She won’t leave the same way.” I inhaled deeply, feeling the pulse of power beneath my skin. My mother’s presence brushed against me again — quiet, hidden, but undeniably there. It gave me strength, and I felt my abilities stirring. Stronger. Sharper. Ready. The moment Ethan stepped in with Lily behind him, my insti

    Ariel POV: The air in Damien’s house felt heavy as we drove in silence. The wedding was over, but my heart was still racing. My dress brushed against my legs as I adjusted myself in the car. My fingers clenched the edge of my seat. I could still feel Damien’s hands on me, his lips, the warmth of his body pressing me close during the vows. “Relax, Ariel,” Damien said softly from the driver’s seat. His voice was calm, but I knew him well enough to know his mind was racing too. I didn’t reply. My thoughts were still spinning from the ceremony. I was officially his wife now. Married in front of everyone, yet for some reason, it felt more personal, more intimate, and more binding than any ceremony could ever be. As we reached the house, I noticed the subtle change in the air. The energy felt different here — stronger, more electric. My mother’s presence brushed against me, faint but unmist

    Damian POV The church was full of gold and breathing bodies. I stood at the front and watched her walk. There are few things in the world that make me lose my center. She is one of them. People think they know me—cold, ruthless, a man who takes what he wants and leaves no loose ends. They don't see the part of me that has fought small wars to keep a person alive in my world. Ariel was the war that had taught me mercy and its opposite—desire. I had practiced how to stand there. I had practiced how to listen without lunging, how to speak vows and mean them. None of that practice would have done what watching her walk done. When she appeared at the entrance, my hand went cool with something like holy fear. She had this quiet that steadied all the noise my life had become. She looked at home and she looked like a storm; the contrast pushed something deep inside me into motion. She paused,

    Ariel POV The morning came soft and slow, like a promise I wasn't sure I deserved. Anna woke me before the sun rose, humming off-key as she folded the last piece of fabric over my shoulders. Her hands are steady—always have been—and when she braided the last strand of my hair I felt like a little girl again, safe and known. She kept stealing glances at me, smiling like she had a secret. "You look like a woman born to this day," she said, buttoning the tiny pearls. Her voice shook a little; I realized how much the day meant to her, and that made it real enough to make me breathe faster. "Do I?" I whispered. My voice sounded too thin in my own ears. "Yes," she said, certain. "You do. And don't you dare cry on my hair." She tapped my nose and I laughed even though my chest felt heavy. The room smelled of white roses and coffee. The maids moved around us like care

  • THE ALPHA KING'S DESPISED OMEGA    Chapter 45

    Ariel POV The quiet in the house felt heavy, almost unnatural. I could still feel the lingering joy from the wedding, but beneath it was a tension I couldn’t ignore. Something was coming. I knew it, and my instincts screamed at me to stay alert. Damien was by my side, calm as ever, but I could feel the subtle shift in his aura. His hands rested lightly on mine, but every muscle in his body was coiled, ready. I leaned against him slightly, letting his presence ground me. “Relax, Ariel,” he whispered, brushing a lock of hair from my face. “Whatever it is, I’ll handle it.” I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to steady my racing heart. But then a ripple of energy brushed the house — sharp, deliberate, and unmistakable. Lily. She was here. My chest tightened. The powder she had applied earlier — I could sense its effect on Ethan, making him pliable, weak to her will. But Damien and I had each other, and that gave me courage. “I know she’s here,” I murmured. “I can feel her.” Damie

    Ariel’s POV I stormed out like an angry lion, my heels clicking furiously against the marble floor, ready to confront Damian right there in front of everyone. My blood boiled, my chest heaved, and the words I wanted to spit at him burned at the tip of my tongue. But then I stopped myself mid-wa

    Damian' POV. The black convoy of luxury cars rolled to a stop in front of the grand hotel entrance. Flashing lights from paparazzi cameras exploded in the night like fireworks. My driver moved to open the door for Ariel, but I stopped him with a hand. Damian: “No. I’ll do it.” I stepped out firs

    Ariel’s POVAfter the awkward moment in Damian’s office, I went to mine. For a while, I just sat down and stared blankly. I couldn’t tell what was going wrong. How did Damian know Ethan? And why was Ethan kneeling?I asked myself a bunch of different questions. My head hurt. I held it in my hands f

    ARIEL'S POV: I clutched the heavy files close to my chest as I walked down the long, cold corridor. My heels clicked softly against the polished floor, and every sound echoed like it was mocking me. My heart pounded faster the closer I got to Damian’s office. I didn’t want to see him again. Not a
