Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 35
Xavier’s Pov I stood there with my fingers still cupping Astrid’s chin. Her skin was warm and incredibly soft beneath my rough hand, like the finest silk warmed by the sun. I could feel the slight tremble in her jaw as she looked up at me. Her eyes were wide and uncertain, but there was something else in them too. Something that made my blood run hotter. I was glad nobody had touched her. If they had, the rage inside me would have been uncontrollable. I did not even understand where that rage came from. Why did the thought of anyone else laying a finger on her make me want to tear the world apart? Maybe it was because she had saved my life once. Maybe it was because she was mine now. Whatever it was, it burned deep.I slowly pulled my hand away. My fingers brushed along her jaw one last time, lingering just a second longer than necessary. Then I turned and walked back to my chair. The heavy wood creaked loudly as I sat down. Astrid remained standing in front of me. She looked so smal
Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 34
Astrid’s PovWe stepped into the room and it felt strangely quiet. The space was small but clean. There was only one bed. I did not know what to do so I sat at the very edge of the bed feeling awkward. Talon stood near the door for a moment before he spoke.“So what is going to happen to your makeup? Are you going to sleep with it on?”I touched my face lightly. “I will take a bath and wipe it off. But this long wedding dress is very uncomfortable. If I had something sharp I could cut it shorter to make it easier to sleep in.”Talon nodded. “You know what? When you remove the dress keep it on top of the bed. Tell me the length you want me to cut it. When you finish bathing it will be ready for you to wear.”I looked at him with surprise. “Oh thank you so much. I did not know your claws were that sharp for clothes.”Talon gave a small smile. “If my claws are sharp for people what is cloth that it cannot cut?”I felt a little stupid for asking the question. We stared at each other for a

Astrid’s PovIf someone had told me that I would be getting married to the ugliest man in the world I would never have believed it. Not even for one second. I had always dreamed about my wedding day. I imagined wearing a beautiful white dress with flowers in my hair. I imagined smiling because I was happy. But here I was standing in front of a cracked mirror looking at myself in a dress that was not mine. I looked beautiful on the outside but inside I felt completely empty.Two ladies I did not even know were helping me get ready. One was kind and quiet. The other had a mean face and kept sighing like I was wasting her time. I turned to the kind one with tears in my eyes.“Please I cannot do this,” I whispered.She gave me a small sad smile. “My child you have to. We have no option. This is what we do to survive.”I tried again. “I cannot do this. I still have so much to live for. I cannot stay with this man please.”The mean one snapped at me. “Hey girl do not spoil the makeup we wor
Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 32
Xavier’s PovI stared at Aliyah like I had not heard her correctly. My mind refused to accept the words. Maybe I heard wrong. Maybe she said something else. This could not be real.“I did not get you,” I said slowly. “Come again.”Aliyah continued eating her food calmly like she had not just said something crazy. She took another bite and chewed slowly.I felt my blood start to boil. I raised my voice. “I asked you a question Aliyah. What did you just say?”She finally dropped her fork and looked up at me. “Oh come on Xavier. I sold her. She was of no use to me anymore. So I sold her to some traders on her way to get married to an elder somewhere far away.”My hands clenched into fists. “You would not dare.”Aliyah stood up slowly. “What do you mean I would not dare? She is just a lowly servant. Since when did you start caring so much about servants and what I do with them? You wanted a personal maid. I gave you a new one. She was always making mistakes anyway. It was out of my genero
Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 31
Xavier’s PovThe journey back to Volkarion felt longer than the actual war itself. My horse moved steadily but my mind was somewhere else completely. I kept thinking about seeing Astrid again. Just the thought of her face made something warm spread through my chest. I remembered her soft eyes. I remembered her gentle voice. Most of all I remembered her beautiful hair. It looked like she used some kind of magic potion on it. The kind vampires take so they can walk in the sun without burning. Her hair was always so gorgeous. It shone even in the dark. I could not stop thinking about running my fingers through it.Talon and Caden were talking beside me. They discussed the short battle and how easy the victory was. I heard their voices but the words did not enter my head. I was too busy imagining Astrid smile. I wondered if she missed me even a little. I wondered if she still wore my coat again.Suddenly Talon raised his voice. “Xavier. Xavier.”I turned my head slowly. “Yes?”He studied
Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 30
Astrid’s PovI started hearing muffled sounds. People were talking in low voices. There were whispers and murmurs all around me. At first I thought it was a dream. But the sounds felt too real. I tried to open my eyes slowly. Something felt wrong. The surface under me was hard and uncomfortable. I remembered falling asleep on a very soft mattress in Luna Aliyah room. Why was this place so hard?When I finally opened my eyes everything was dark. Very dark. I could only see tiny spaces of light through small gaps. I was inside something tight and closed. A box. I was trapped in a box. My chest became tight. I have always been afraid of small spaces. I have always been afraid of the dark. Who would not be afraid of the dark in a situation like this?That was when I heard Luna Aliyah voice clearly. She was talking to some men outside.“Do not bring her back. I need her soul. The price is fair. Even if it is for free I will give her to you.”One of the men laughed loudly. “Looks like this

Astrid’s PovAliyah released my hair and threw me to the floor like I was nothing.I hit the cold stone hard, my palms scraping against the ground. Before I could even think about getting up, her foot came down on my hand. Not a kick. A slow, deliberate stomp. I bit down on my lip so hard I tasted

Astrid’s Pov“You.” Aliyah’s voice cut straight through me like a blade. “Stand up. Now.”I scrambled to my feet so fast I nearly knocked the chair over. “I’m so sorry, Luna. The Alpha called me here. I swear, I didn’t come on my own. I would never—”“Relax.” She waved her hand like my words were f

Astrid's PovMy back was pressed so hard against the cold stone wall that I could feel every rough edge digging into my skin. Alpha Xavier stood barely an inch away from me, towering over my trembling frame. His presence was suffocating, like the air itself had grown heavier just because he was nea

Astrid’s PovHis eyes met mine, they were sharp, red, and impossible to read. Then, just as suddenly, they closed again. He collapsed back onto the bed, unconscious.That was my sign to leave.He probably wouldn’t remember any of it. It might have just been a momentary surge of energy. Either way,
