SELENA'S P.O.V

Alpha Cole's eyea darted between both of us, and he let out a slow sigh. For a long moment, he just watched me, the silence between us feeling like a reconstruction of all the bricks we had worked hard in breaking down.

"You have nothing to say?" I asked, my nails digging into my flesh, my eyes holding his. "Not an explanation? Nothing? You left my room and came here with her but won't say a thing even when you know I would accept all of your bullshit?"

His eyes darkened, and he

  • The Alpha's Bodyguard    The Meeting

    SELENA'S P.O.V I lingered against the wall for a long minute, just listening. The room next door was quiet for a long while. I sat on the floor, my eyes closed as I listened to the sounds. Any sound would have satisfied me.I heard when Alpha Cole woke up. I heard when Evan told him to be careful. I heard the sigh he let out as the water hit his skin in the shower.As if compelled by a force, I pushed myself off the wall and went into the shower. I closed my eyes against the hot water, my chest tight as I felt the water run down my skin.I thought about how I would apologize to him. Do I go on my knees? Do I cry and break down? I thought of Amanda. She would probably be so disappointed in me for pushing her father away. It felt like my sins against the two of them were piling up, and I wasn't sure how much of it I could keep up with anymore. I wasn't sure how much of it I could atone for without losing my soul.I got out of the shower and changed into a simple dress. I left my hair

  • The Alpha's Bodyguard    An Entanglement

    EVAN'S P.O.V.I let my hand rest under Alpha Cole's cheek, his warmth spreading through my palm, his pulse low but evident. A single tear still rested on his lashes, and I resisted the urge to reach out. Not just to his face or his skin. I wanted to reach out to his heart and kiss it a little better in the only way I knew how.But there was only one person that he would allow, and she was next door.I held my breath as I listened. She wasn't crying anymore. Maybe she had slipped into a restless sleep just like him. Maybe she had nothing else to cry out.I felt my heart clench, as my hand sank into his hair. I looked down. He was vulnerable. Not as vulnerable as he was when Selena had been nothing but a callback from the past, but vulnerable still.I leaned down close, my eyes darting across both of his closed ones. He was astoundingly beautiful. It was almost irritating just how perfect he looked under these lights, even with the thin red line that showed just how much the emotional t

  • The Alpha's Bodyguard    Such Idiots

    ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V My head felt like it would split in two, and somehow, my heart felt worse. I sat on the edge of my bed, Selena's scent still engraved everywhere like a punishment, wrapped up in the last robe she had worn.I wanted to feel something. Anything other than the crippling fear that the ship might have sailed for us a while ago and she would never be able to trust me again.I wondered what I could do better. Explain better, allow her to have the mate bond back? Maybe have her around me all the time.My throat closed, the back of my eyes stinging a bit more."I think she trusts you. She is just... scared."I slowly looked up. Evan was standing close to the shower. His usual hood was off, his hair falling across his eyes. His arms were folded in front of him, his expression carefully blank.I looked away and took in a deep breath. "You should go, I...""I don't want to go anywhere. Not after I saw that."I met his eyes. "I am not that weak. I am not going to relapse and...

  • The Alpha's Bodyguard    Tear Tracks

    SELENA'S P.O.V I turned, my chest heaving. I did nothing to stop the tears that ran down my cheeks in slow, fast torrents. I hated myself for putting him through the hell of my own insecurities. Of my own distrust. My fingers gently wrapped around the door knob, and my knees threatened to give away under me. My body felt like it was supposed to belong somewhere else. Somewhere closer to him. I turned the door knob."Selena."My heart jumped, and I turned, my eyes widened with hope. Most of which crumbled the minute I saw his eyes. Still wet. Still exhausted. Still filled with the hurt I put in there.He took a step forward, then gently passed a first aid box, letting it fall to the space between us. I looked down, the tears tearing me apart from somewhere deeper than even I could reach right now."For the bleeding."I bit down on my lower lip so hard that I tasted my blood. Was it too shameless to say sorry? To say I was selfish and greedy and deeply, stupidly sorry, and that I nee

    SELENA'S P.O.V Alpha Cole's eyea darted between both of us, and he let out a slow sigh. For a long moment, he just watched me, the silence between us feeling like a reconstruction of all the bricks we had worked hard in breaking down."You have nothing to say?" I asked, my nails digging into my flesh, my eyes holding his. "Not an explanation? Nothing? You left my room and came here with her but won't say a thing even when you know I would accept all of your bullshit?"His eyes darkened, and he titled his head to the side. "Everyone leave."Evan stepped away from me, and I watched as he almost covered the distance towards Alpha Cole. Alpha Cole didn't take his eyes off me, and Evan let out a small sigh."Everyone," Evan said, to the omegas still lingering for gossip, to Sylvia standing there, arms folded, her lips parted in a triumphant smile, to Alan who was watching me like he was trying to make a point. "Leave. Now."Sylvia peeled herself off the wall, a small scoff escaping her.

  • The Alpha's Bodyguard    Water on Floors

    ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V 20 MINUTES AGOI closed the door gently behind me, so Selena wouldn't think I was pissed with her. I was. Maybe a little. But hurt would be the best say to describe it. Seeing her ask for the mate bond reminded me of the fact that she hadn't been there when I woke up that day.Only Evan was. I remember how confusing it had been, knowing the last thing I saw was her, and suddenly, she wasn't the first.I knew Selena. Like the palms of my hand. Something was wrong, and that was why she chose to leave. Evan refused to talk, but once I asked if she felt insecure about the kiss, the look in his eyes gave him away.I let out a small breath. I don't exactly blame her despite how shitty it feels. I broke up with her after our first night together. I wasn't even there to ask her how she felt.Of course, it was going to come back to me. Of course, I was going to pay for it one way or the other.I pushed myself out of the bed and walked towards the shower, shedding my clothe

    ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V Selena. Selena is in my palace.My eyes thinned as I looked between the women in the dungeon and the soldier still lying unconscious outside. He had been carefully tucked away, and he had a single hit to the side of his neck. Like the edge of a dagger.That was Selena's signatur

I stopped for a second to catch my breath, my chest heaving. I still knew the palace like the back of my h

    SELENA'S P.O.V I cleaned out the guns and daggers, laying them out on the floor in the room. I stepped back, my eyes taking in the weapons. Most of them were my hunting gear, as I have had no use for weapons in five years.The sun was already coming up, and tomorrow would be the full moon festival

    The sun was already setting. The feast for the night had been laid because no one could bear being idle. I had taken charge of the hunt for tonight because I needed to subdue. To take my anger out on something.And yet... they were still not back."Mummy? Aunt Mila and Aunt Lily are still not back.
