The Alpha's Bodyguard Lingering Questions
SELENA'S P.O.V I walked back into the quarters, my eyes skimming the place. It was clean, evidence that someone had been there to clean it out after we left for Waning Moon. I closed the door behind me and walked in further, my hands gently touching the surfaces of everything. If there was a chance that Sylvia could have planted something in there, the best thing that could happen was for it to be discovered by my hand first.I finished my inspection. There was nothing off. Maybe it was one of those omegas. I got out of the robe I was wearing and stepped into the shower, my eyes closing as the water hit my skin. My mind immediately drifted to Amanda. Maybe I could sneak out and see her for a bit?Alpha Cole's trust in me has definitely heightened since Waning Moon, and maybe I can come up with a lie more believable this time. But with Alan's presence in the palace so new, it would feel too fishy if I started running around.I let out a small breath. I missed my daughter so fucking
The Alpha's Bodyguard A Replacement
ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V The drive back was almost stiffling. Evan was driving now, instead of the whoever the driver had been before, and we were both excruciatingly silent. Like he hadn't held me in times when I was falling to pieces."How about..." I started, my voice a little rough. "Let's stop by for groceries."He didn't look back. "The palace pantry is stocked, Alpha."I bit down on my lower lip. "Are you still angry with me?"He slowed down the car a bit but made no move to look at me. "It was partly my fault. But I am more disappointed that you thought I would want her to disappear when I know just how much she makes you happy."I watched his back, and my chest tightened with emotions that I don't think I have truly felt ever since he stepped into Ian's role.I leaned back, sucking in a sharp breath."You... you are just as noble as Ian. I did not doubt that you would keep her safe and...""You are still comparing me to him," he said, as the gates of the palace opened, and he drov
The Alpha's Bodyguard Resilience
SELENA'S P.O.V I woke up to the sound of incessant knocking on the door. My brows furrowed as I turned. The room was dark, the drapes drawn, and the only evidence of Alpha Cole was his signature scent.I sat up slowly, my eyes still squinted from sleep, my body warm from the sheets. Who could it be? If Alpha Cole was gone, there was a very negligible chance of Evan being here and an even smaller chance of him looking for Alpha Cole since he always knew where Alpha Cole was.Who could it be?I got out of bed and started towards the door, but froze midway. Alan. Alan was appointed beta. Could he be here?The knock came again, and I tightened the robe around me. Even if it was Alan, I knew just what he was capable of. I walked to the door and opened it, ready to confront Alan.I came face to face with Sylvia, and I gave a small sigh, my eyes rolling."What are you doing here?" I asked, blocking the door, my body language enough for her to know that she was absolutely unwelcome.She took
The Alpha's Bodyguard The Art of Sadism
ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V The cars were arranged by the time I got out of the palace. Evan was notably missing, but that little insect, Alan was standing closest to my personal car, his hands folded in front of him.I stopped, taking him in. He had changed into a full suit, his eyes thin as he met mine.I gave a small smile, then walked the two steps it took to cover the distance between us. He took half a step back, and my smile only widened.Without a word, I gently fixed his tie, my hand tightening it just enough till he turned a bright red."Your eyes down," I whispered. "There is a hierarchy here, and you are beneath my shoe."He maintained his gaze for a second longer. I could see the moment realisation kicked in, and whatever nonsense had been drilled into him by the seer and Isaac came to mind."Yes, Alpha," he said, then lowered his gaze.I let him go, then turned and got into the car, the door closing after me.The drive to the massive troop barracks was a slightly long journey. T
The Alpha's Bodyguard Abuse of Power
ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V I watched the slow rise and dip of Selena's chest as she slept, her fingers wrapped tight around my hand. She was adorable even in sleep, and still somehow, every inch, the fighter I know.My phone started to ring somewhere, and I turned. I grabbed it before it could wake Selena, then brought it to my ear."Hello?""Alpha," said Evan, his voice low. I closed my eyes. My hand still stung from where I had hit him, and even though I knew he wasn't the kind of person to betray me, I half expected it to happen."Evan."He gave a small sigh. "The troops are close. They are more than enthusiastic about joining. As far as we know, they are the troops Alpha Rhys occasionally loans to Isaac to hold over your head, and... well, they are willing to finally be let out of that."I nodded. "You know where to take them.""I do. Will you come see them?""In an hour.""Yes, Alpha."Silence fell between us. For a long moment, I thought of everything I could use to bridge the gap. An
The Alpha's Bodyguard The Vow
SELENA'S P.O.V The door closed behind us, and the last bit of my dress dropped to the floor. Alpha Cole said nothing as he pushed it away, then opened the massive shower cubicle.I looked around, then back at him, my chest lightly heaving. I covered the tiny distance to him, my hands resting on the warm skin of his chest.He said nothing to me as he turned on the shower. The water was warm, and I gave a s.all gasp as my hair immediately flattened against my back, and he broke into a small laugh."Still a bit scared?"I rolled my eyes. "Surprised. Not scared."He simply smiled but said nothing. Gently, he turned me around, one arm wrapping srojnd my place, keeping my back solidly pinned against his chest.I sighed as I leaned back, letting him trace small, pretty kisses down the edge of my neck. The scent of lavender hit me, and I didn't have to open my eyes to see what it was.A warm, slightly heavier liquid than the water came to a slow rest on my hair, followed almost immediately b
The Alpha's Bodyguard Five Years of Cowardice
5 YEARS LATERSELENA'S P.O.V I watched Amanda run around the open field. Her hair was long, down to her back, but she had always ensured that I knew she wanted to keep it that way.I smiled to myself, my arms crossing over my chest. She was beautiful. Seeing her like this almost made me feel guilt
The Alpha's Bodyguard The Rogues
SELENA'S P.O.V.I blinked up, my chest heaving hard. I could smell a bit of smoke and an accompanying woody scent, very far from the exotic scents that I was used to around Alpha Cole and his palace. Alpha Cole.The thought came back unbidden. The night of passion that we had shared, the way he ha
The Alpha's Bodyguard Obsession and Hatred
ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V.The rest of the ceremony passed by in a blur of... nothing. I tried my best to look the part of the man who believed he was making the right choice. But there was no right or wrong when Selena had looked at me like that. Like I was the enemy. Like I had broken her.And maybe I h
The Alpha's Bodyguard Betrayed
There was a moment of stunned silence that descended on the hall, following my announcement. I kept my eyes straight ahead, my gaze holding Alpha Cole's, unwavering.And then it erupted. Chaos. I could hear the names they called me, the scandalized gasps of wolves who couldn't believe that an escap
