The Alpha I Saved Ruined Me 036: The Poison and the Name
The Poison and the Name“Talia’s POVAt that moment his grip loosened. I pulled my arm free and walked out. I didn’t look back at him.I kept my pace steady through the corridor, past the guard at the turn and past two maids who flattened themselves against the wall as I walked by. My chest was still running hot from everything I had said and everything he had said back.I bumped into Monica at the end of the corridor. She opened her mouth in surprise and took a step toward me.I walked past her without slowing.“Talia.” Her voice had that specific edge. “I’m speaking to you, how dare you walk out on me?”I kept walking. Whatever she said after that I didn’t hear because I had already turned and put enough distance between us that her voice became just another sound in the pack that I was choosing not to absorb.I closed my room door and stood in the middle of the room and let everything that had been building since I saw that face outside find somewhere to go.I pressed my hands aga
The Alpha I Saved Ruined Me 035: You Will Always be Mine
You Will Always Be MineTalia’s POVI had been away from the pack since early morning and by midday I was already itching to go back.It didn’t want to admit it. The meetings had run long and the traders from the eastern territory made a lot of arguments that we reached a conclusion after a lot of dragging. The entire time I had been sitting across that table with half my attention on the room and the other half on Talia. Cassian noticed how restless I was on our way back.“You’ve adjusted your wristband four times in the last hour,” he said, riding close beside me.“The strap is loose,” I said.“It isn’t,” he said. “Aurora is with her. She’s fine...”“Alpha.”“I heard you the first time,” I said.He let a moment pass. “Monica was still in the fortress when we left. I know how she behaves when you’re not around.”That was exactly why I was worried. Even though Aurora was with her, my mother and Monica alone had more power. “Aurora is capable of protecting herself,” I said.“I believ
The Alpha I Saved Ruined Me 034: The Face I Recognized
The Face I RecognizedTalia’s POVI was informed about the Moon Goddess celebration a while ago. It was a celebration which they said it’s more like a worship but from what I’m seeing, it’s more like a show off here. In my village during celebrations, it used to be quiet and warm. People would put small candles on their windowsills and the ones who had someone would sit with them after dinner, and the ones who didn’t would find company anyway because nobody spent that particular evening alone if they could help it. Mateo would usually organize something, a shared meal in the main hall, whatever scraps of sweetened bread could be put together from what was available.I thought about all of them sitting around that table without me. I thought about whether they were safe, whether Valik’s promised protection extended to them. I thought about the women who had been taken the night Aurora and I went out, and the village head who had run toward the hunters with his hands open.I was sittin
The Alpha I Saved Ruined Me 033: What the Moon Goddess Demands
What the Moon Goddess DemandsValik’s POVWhen I left her room, her words were echoing constantly in my head. ‘I would leave you there. I would turn around and keep walking.‘I had heard people say things in anger before. Threats, accusations, cruelties designed to find the softest place and push. After enough years of being Alpha, I developed a kind of thickness to it, a layer that processed mean words at a level without letting them go deeper. But with Talia… Whatever she says to mean pierces deeper than I could ever imagine.Not because of the gravity of her words, but because she is the one saying it in a tone that says she had been holding it in for too long and I just subscribed to hear it… It hurts. I had stood there and felt it land on my chest and had not been able to find a single word to say.My study was at the end of the east corridor and I was inside it before I had fully decided to go there. The fire was low because I didn’t add to it.Cassian was sitting in a chair ne
The Alpha I Saved Ruined Me 032: The Weight of His Goodwill
The Weight of His GoodwillTalia’s POVI was still in my room, lying down in misery that I didn’t notice that the day had passed. I didn’t know what hour it was.The early morning sun pierced through the window and hit my face, I lay on the floor and stared at the ceiling and felt my stomach growling out of hunger.I had not eaten since yesterday and after everything that happened, I’m not even supposed to feel hungry. Nobody had come since yesterday, not the maids who had recently been assigned to me or the kitchen servants, not even Aurora but I guess we are both suffering the same fate. Valik’s anger reset everything around him, and whatever small sympathy he showed me in recent days had evaporated overnight. I turned towards the window and pressed my hand against my growling stomach and told it to be quiet but it ignored me.I was taking a nap when I heard someone knock on my door.Aurora came in and stopped when she saw me lying on the floor. She stood there trying to understan
The Alpha I Saved Ruined Me 031: What We Couldn’t Stop
What We Couldn’t StopTalia’s POV“You guys need to move faster,” I said. “Don’t look back, just keep walking.”The villagers took to their heels. The headlight got closer and people who had been reluctant to leave their homes twenty minutes ago were now running through the dark, understanding what was in front of them. Aurora fell into step beside me at the back of the group.“I can create a diversion,” she said, low and close to my ear. “I will draw them toward the west side, that will give everyone more time to escape.”“They haven’t seen us yet,” I said. “A diversion tells them exactly where to look, let’s keep moving.”Aurora pressed her lips together but didn’t argue.The village head, walked ahead of us with a child on his back. He glanced over his shoulder. I caught his eye and tilted my head forward, telling him to keep going. He nodded and turned back.As we pushed deeper into the trail cover, I watched as the truck slowed and after sometime, it stopped completely. I believ
