Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 48
Astrid’s POVThe morning began like any other until Aliya decided it would not.I stood near the entrance of the main courtyard while Xavier spoke with two senior warriors about the eastern patrols. The sun already warmed the stones. I kept my eyes down, trying not to draw notice.Aliya’s voice cut through the air.“Astrid. Come here.”Heads turned. I walked forward and stopped a short distance away, bowing my head.“Yes, Luna.”She held a delicate glass vial between her fingers. “This belonged to my mother. I asked you to clean the shelf it sat on yesterday. Now it is cracked. Explain.”I had not cleaned any shelf of hers. I had not even been near her private rooms. Before I could speak she raised her voice so more people could hear.“You have grown careless since the Alpha gave you special duties. Perhaps you need a reminder of your place.”Two of her attendants stepped forward. One carried a thin switch. My stomach dropped.Xavier’s voice came from behind me, calm and flat. “What i

Xavier’s POVThe summons came just after the morning meal.A young messenger stood at the door of my study, head bowed. “The elders request your presence in the Hall of Verdict, Alpha. They say the matter is urgent.”I dismissed him with a short nod and rose from my chair. The bite mark on my shoulder gave a slow, familiar throb as I moved. It had been doing that more often since the night before. Astrid’s presence had quieted the worst of the fever, but the hunger never fully left anymore. It only waited.Astrid stood near the wall the way she always did when I worked. I glanced at her.“Come.”She followed without question. The sound of her footsteps behind me had become something I expected now, almost needed. I still had not decided what that said about me.The Hall of Verdict was already full when we entered. The senior elders stood in a loose half-circle near the high table. Conversations stopped the moment they saw me. Every head bowed. I took my seat and gestured for Astrid to

Astrid’s PovI barely slept after leaving the Alpha’s chambers.Every time I closed my eyes I felt the grip of his hand on my wrist again. The heat of his skin. The way his eyes had changed when the hunger rose. I kept telling myself it was only fear. Fear and the strange pull that always seemed to appear when he stood too close. Nothing more. I did not understand it, and I did not want to understand it.Morning came too quickly. I washed, dressed, and made my way to his chambers as required. The guards let me through without comment. Inside, the outer room was empty. I waited near the wall the way I always did.Xavier stepped out of the bedroom a short while later, already dressed. Aliya was nowhere in sight. He looked at me for a long moment, then gestured for me to follow him into the smaller adjoining room where he sometimes reviewed papers.Once the door closed behind us he spoke.“When we are alone, you will call me Xavier.”I blinked. “Alpha?”“You heard me. In private, use my
Taming The Alpha’s Curse Chapter 45
Xavier’s PovThe fever returned not long after midnight.It started as a low heat under the skin of my left shoulder, right where her bite still marked me. Within the hour it had spread across my chest and down my arms. Sweat beaded on my forehead. My gums ached. The familiar dry hunger crawled up the back of my throat.Aliya slept beside me, one arm thrown across the sheets. I carefully moved her hand away and sat up. The room felt too small. The air felt too thin.I stood and walked to the outer chamber, closing the bedroom door quietly behind me. A guard waited in the corridor as always.“Bring Astrid,” I said. “Now. Tell no one else.”The man left at once. I paced the length of the outer room while I waited, jaw clenched against the rising burn. Erevos stirred restlessly inside me.She is the only thing that quiets it, my wolf muttered. You know this.I did not answer him.When the door opened again Astrid stepped inside, still tying the belt of a simple robe. Her hair was slightl

Astrid’s POVThe words hung in the air between us like a blade. “I can smell your arousal from here. Who is making you aroused, Astrid?”My heart slammed so hard I was sure he could hear it. I opened my mouth but nothing came out at first. The Hall of Verdict was empty now except for the two of us. The high table still held the papers from the elders’ meeting. Morning light cut across the floor in sharp lines.“I… I do not know what you mean, Alpha,” I said. My voice sounded thin even to my own ears.Xavier stayed seated, but his eyes never left my face. He tilted his head slightly, studying me the way a predator studies something that has already been caught.“Do not lie to me.” His tone stayed quiet, almost calm, which somehow made it worse. “I asked a simple question. Who is making you smell like this?”I took a small step back. “No one. Maybe it is just the stress of the morning. Or the potion. Sometimes it—”He stood up in one smooth motion. The chair scraped lightly against the

Astrid’s POVXavier’s mouth was on mine before I could even breathe. He kissed me hard and deep, like he had been starving for it. His tongue pushed past my lips and claimed every part of my mouth. I tried to pull back but his hand was already in my hair, holding me still.He broke the kiss only long enough to growl against my lips. “I have wanted this for so long.”Then he spun me around and pushed me against the cold stone wall. My back hit it with a soft thud. His hands were everywhere. He yanked my dress up around my waist and tore my undergarment down in one rough motion. I heard the fabric rip. His own clothes were already open. The thick head of his cock pressed against my entrance, hot and heavy.“Xavier, we should not—”He thrust into me in one deep stroke. The stretch burned and filled me completely. A broken sound left my throat. He did not give me time to adjust. He started fucking me hard against the wall, each thrust slamming me higher onto my toes. His hands gripped my

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 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,
