The ALPHA’S PAIN Chapter 14
Elena’s POVI woke up suddenly. Not from a dream. From a feeling. For a moment, I stayed still, staring at the ceiling as the quiet settled around me. It felt wrong. Not loud. Not sharp. Just… off. Like something had shifted during the night and hadn’t settled back into place.Then, a knock.Soft. Controlled.I sat up immediately. “Come in.”The door opened and Michael stepped in without hesitation. He didn’t ask if I was awake. That alone told me enough.“You felt it,” I said.He closed the door behind him. “Yes.”The word settled heavily between us. I swung my legs off the bed and stood, grounding myself. “It wasn’t just the place.”“No,” he replied. “It wasn’t.”Silence followed, full, not empty. The corridor. The shift in the air. The door. The presence.“It noticed us,” I said quietly.Michael didn’t deny it. “Yes.”That confirmation sat heavier than anything else. I walked toward the window, pulling the curtain back slightly. The courtyard outside looked normal. Students moving.
The ALPHA’S PAIN Chapter 13
Elena’s POVNo one moved at first. The silence stretched, thick and deliberate, pressing in from all sides like the space itself was listening.I stepped forward.Michael’s hand caught my wrist before I could reach the door. “Wait.”I didn’t look at him. “We didn’t come this far to stand outside.”“That’s not the point,” he said quietly. “We don’t know what’s in there.”“I think we do,” Jameson murmured beside us.I glanced at him briefly. He hadn’t stepped back. His eyes were still fixed on the door, not with fear, but with something sharper. Focus. The same kind of curiosity that had brought him this far.“That’s why we’re here,” I said.Michael’s grip tightened slightly, then loosened. A silent argument passed between us in that brief contact—calculation, risk, timing. Then he let go. “Quick. We go in, we observe, we leave.”I nodded once. No hesitation.I reached for the handle. It was colder than it should have been. For a second, nothing happened. Then the mechanism gave with a
The ALPHA’S PAIN Chapter 12
Elena’s POVThe map didn’t leave my mind. Even after we stopped discussing it the night before, even after everything had gone quiet, it lingered. Not just as information, but as something unresolved. A question that hadn’t been fully asked yet.I stood by the window that morning, the same spot I always seemed to return to without thinking. The courtyard below was already alive with movement. Students passing through. Conversations blending into a dull hum. Everything looked exactly the same.That was the problem.Nothing ever looked wrong here.Behind me, I could hear Michael moving around quietly, papers shifting, the faint sound of a chair scraping against the floor. He hadn’t dropped it either. I could tell.“Something about it doesn’t sit right,” I said, my eyes still fixed outside.Michael didn’t respond immediately. When he did, his tone was steady. “It’s not supposed to.”I turned slightly, leaning back against the wall. “The map is too precise. If it was truly misfiled, it wo
The ALPHA’S PAIN Chapter 11
Elena’s POVAfter a long day of classes and acting normal, we still had to attend a meeting of the History Association. They spoke about an event the school was going to host, something held annually. It wasn’t long. Just a short, routine meeting. Michael and I remained vigilant and observant, careful not to give off the impression that we were tense.Later that evening, I had just taken a shower and changed into shorts and a baggy shirt. I found Michael reading something casually while sipping on juice. I decided to grab some and join him.That was until a knock came at the door.Michael and I exchanged a quick glance. We weren’t expecting anyone.He moved first, controlled and calm, while I stayed where I was.When he opened the door, Jameson stood there. Casual. Hands in his pockets. Expression neutral.“Evening,” he said.Not overly friendly. Not overly familiar. Just… present.“What do you want?” Michael asked, not rude, but not welcoming either.Jameson’s gaze shifted briefly pa
The ALPHA’S PAIN Chapter 10
Elena’s POVThe next morning felt too normal.Sunlight filtered through the curtains, soft and steady, like nothing had shifted the night before. Michael was already awake, sitting at the small dining table with a stack of files open in front of him, flipping through printed copies from the Association’s records.I watched him for a moment before speaking.“Did you find anything new?”He shook his head slightly, sliding a page aside. “Same gaps. Same missing years. It’s deliberate.”Of course it was.I poured myself a glass of water and leaned against the counter. My thoughts drifted briefly to the balcony. To the quiet nod. To the way Jameson hadn’t tried to dominate the moment. I hated that I noticed it.I quietly set the glass down on the table and walked to the window instead. The courtyard looked completely ordinary in the morning light. Students crossed from one building to another, chatting without a care in the world. Some walked in small groups, their laughter carrying throug

Jameson’s POVThey didn’t move in that day.I noticed because I expected them to. Most students would have rushed it, eager to claim a new space, to make it theirs. But Elena and Michael weren’t impulsive people. They left the apartment untouched for two days.On the second afternoon, a cleaning crew arrived first. Professional. Efficient. In and out within hours. Windows opened, surfaces wiped, floors redone. It wasn’t excessive, but it was deliberate.They weren’t excited.They were careful.I watched from my balcony without drawing attention to myself, phone in hand, posture relaxed. Anyone looking would assume I was just another resident enjoying the view. I wasn’t staring. I was observing.When they finally arrived later that evening with boxes, the move was quiet. No crowd of friends. No loud laughter. Just the two of them working in sync.Elena stepped inside first. She paused just beyond the doorway, subtle enough that most people wouldn’t notice. But I did. She was assessing
The ALPHA’S PAIN Chapter 8
Morning came quickly. It had been two days since the encounter with Jameson, and it still had not left my mind. The way he fixated on the name Widders lingered longer than I wanted to admit. After that day, Michael and I decided to slow down with the investigations and lay low for a while. Not be
