She swallowed, trying to steady herself. "Asher..." she murmured, voice barely above a whisper. His jaw clenched. He was staring straight ahead, but his grip on her tightened as if anchoring himself. "I should kill him." "Asher—" "I should rip him apart," he seethed. "Every single time he touched you, every time he hurt you—he should have known it wouldn't last forever. That one day, you'd be free. That one day, he'd have to answer for it." Elena's breath hitched. She knew he meant every word. The promise in his voice sent a shiver down her spine—not of fear, but of something else. Something dangerously close to relief. To hope. "Asher, listen to me," she urged, pressing a hand against his chest. "You can't—" "Don't tell me I can't," he growled. "After everything he's done to you? After—" He exhaled sharply, cutting himself off, fists clenched. "You shouldn't have had to go through that. I would’ve stopped it. I should’ve stopped it." Guilt bled into his fury, twisting h

Next2 Blood dripped from her split lip, trickling down her chin. Dizziness clouded her vision, making it hard to focus. Her eyes swelled from the relentless assault. Lena... Elena clung to the presence of her wolf, but the pain was overwhelming, drowning out everything else. "You really thought you could get away with it?" Emerson's voice was low, filled with amusement. "Pathetic," Harris muttered, standing over her. "She’s not even fighting back." "She knows she can’t win," Connor added, a smirk playing on his lips. "Please," Elena gasped, her voice barely a whisper. She wasn’t even sure what she was begging for. Mercy? A chance to explain? Harris laughed. "Hear that? She’s already begging." "Should’ve thought of that before sneaking food like some starving stray," Emerson said coldly. "That’s exactly what she is," Connor sneered. "A worthless, starving stray." Another kick. Another sharp jolt of pain. "Elena, don’t cry," Lena urged. "Don’t show weakness. They wa

"You do realize that bubbles are meant for little kids, right?" Her mother’s voice carried a hint of disapproval as she watched the entire bottle of shampoo empty into the bathtub. "But I am a little kid," she mumbled softly. There was something different about her mother today. She seemed... sad. A faint, forced smile appeared on her mother’s face before she moved closer, kneeling by the bathtub. Gentle fingers threaded through her hair, massaging the shampoo into her scalp. "One day, little girls have to grow up," her mother murmured. "And when that day comes, they have to learn to do things by themselves." She absorbed every word, holding onto them, puzzled by the way her mother had said her full name. "Especially if something ever happens to their parents." That made her turn abruptly, eyes locking onto her mother’s face. A deep sigh escaped her mother’s lips, yet she didn’t meet her gaze. "Don’t be silly, Mom. You and Dad are going to be here forever." A laugh bubb

But the worst part? Asher had left. He had heard her past, listened to everything she had been through… and walked away. A sudden pounding on her door shattered the quiet. "Elena, for fuck’s sake—if you don’t answer me, I’m coming in," Asher’s voice growled through the barrier between them. The doorknob rattled. Her heart lurched. The shower shut off with a quick twist of her fingers. "S-sorry, I—I didn’t hear you." She scrambled out, wrapping a towel around herself. Through the door, she heard him exhale, the sound heavy with relief. "Alright. Just… come out when you're done. We need to talk." This was it. She had dreaded this moment for two days, knowing exactly what was coming. He was going to reject her. She just knew it. Muttering a quiet acknowledgment, she hurried to dress. Undergarments first, then her black tights, and finally the oversized gray hoodie—her father’s hoodie. The familiar fabric wrapped around her like a memory, and her chest ached. Get a gri

"You mean a lot to me too," she admitted, her voice soft, uncertain. He let out a shaky breath, relief flashing in his eyes. "Then tell me how to fix this. Tell me how to make it up to you." She wanted to tell him that he had already done enough—that just hearing him say these things was more than she ever thought she’d get. But she also knew that words weren’t always enough. She needed actions. She needed proof that he wouldn’t walk away again. "Stay," she said finally. "Just... stay." His hands trailed down to hers, fingers intertwining. "I’m not going anywhere." For the first time in what felt like forever, she felt seen. She wasn’t just some useless, fragile girl. He truly cared—about her, about how she felt. And that alone made her heart ache. Why did he care so much? Why did it matter to him?The thought of it was overwhelming. "Elena," he pressed, his voice lower, rougher now. "Did someone hurt you while I was gone?" A growl rumbled from deep within his chest as h

Asher’s Past "Asher, come here." Kade’s deep voice echoed down the hallway. Something about his tone seemed off. Was he angry? Curious, Asher moved toward him. "Yes, Kad—" The words stuck in his throat. His feet stopped mid-step. Confusion clouded his mind. Kade, his cousin, who was ten years older than Asher’s eight-year-old self, stood there with his fist raised high. On the floor, a small girl trembled. One of her eyes was swollen, dark purple bruising the delicate skin. It looked painful, unbearably so. She whimpered softly, and Asher felt a heavy weight settle in his chest. Maybe they had been playing, and she fell? Maybe Kade wanted him to help her up? Asher took a step forward, reaching out—but before he could, Kade’s fist came down, striking the girl’s face. A sharp, piercing scream shattered the air. Asher froze, his eyes widening in horror. Blood trickled from the girl's lip, bright red against her pale skin. Footsteps suddenly echoed behind him, and just like tha

Killing them would bring satisfaction. But torture? That would be far more rewarding.“Alpha?” A guard stepped forward, his voice uncertain. “Do you need something?”Asher didn’t stop. He didn’t even look at him. “Open the cells.”The guard hesitated. “Alpha, are you sure? The prisoners—”“I didn’t ask for your opinion. Open the damn cells.”The guard swallowed hard but nodded. He hurried ahead, unlocking the heavy iron doors. The moment they creaked open, the stench of sweat and blood filled Asher’s lungs. It only fueled his rage.Inside, Connor and his men sat slumped against the cold walls, wrists bound, faces bruised and swollen from earlier beatings. Connor looked up, his split lip curling into a smirk.“Well, well. The mighty Alpha finally decided to visit.” His voice was hoarse, but laced with arrogance. “Did your little mate cry to you?”Asher moved so fast, Connor didn’t even have time to flinch. His hand wrapped around the bastard’s throat, lifting him effortlessly.“You thi

The chamber was one of the many places Asher used for interrogations. It was specifically designed to handle rogues who trespassed on his territory. The room had several hidden vents in the corners, which, when activated, released silver gas. The toxic fumes made any wolf inside weaker, forcing them to endure excruciating pain. Breathing it in felt like pure agony, stripping away their strength little by little. Moving onto the next prisoner, Emerson, Asher noticed he was already unconscious. That didn’t surprise him. Over time, he had observed that Emerson was far weaker than Harris. Without hesitation, he injected him with the sedative, stepping back as the drug took effect. "Put them in the chamber," he commanded, his voice sharp and unwavering. Only two remained—Nathan and Connor. These two were the ones Asher looked forward to dealing with the most. However, their suffering needed to be drawn out. They wouldn’t get the easy way out—not yet. Sticking each of them with the sy

Asher didn’t return to the house right away.The quiet outside offered a stillness his mind couldn’t replicate, no matter how much he tried. With each step away from the prison cells, the weight of his rage clung to him like damp fog. The cold night air kissed his skin, but did nothing to ease the fire in his chest. Every breath felt tight. Controlled. Deliberate.He should’ve felt satisfied.Connor’s swollen eye, the tremble in Vivian’s voice, the blood on the wall—those were the marks of vengeance served. He’d made them feel a fraction of what Elena had endured under their reign. He’d stripped them of their dignity, made them bleed, and banished them to the life of rogues—exiled to the wild, where survival was a game of luck and brute strength.But vengeance wasn’t justice. Not entirely.And as he stood alone beneath the canopy of stars, his jaw clenched tighter with the realization that satisfaction was fleeting. Their cries didn’t heal the fractures in Elena’s soul. Their punishme

Dinner was laid out across the long table Asher had dragged from the lodge’s storage—Margot’s stew steaming in bowls, Genevieve’s bread basket nestled beside it, and pitchers of spiced cider passed down in quiet gratitude. Plates clinked. Conversations remained low, fragile like glass recovering from a storm.Elena sat beside Asher, her fingers occasionally brushing his thigh beneath the table, grounding him when his shoulders tensed or his jaw locked from old ghosts. Across from them sat Lena, who was halfway through her third bowl of stew and humming in appreciation like it was a five-star meal.But one thing kept tugging at Elena’s awareness like a thorn stuck under skin.Jacob.He sat at the far end of the table, between Genevieve and a shy pack healer, making no effort to disguise it—his gaze locked on Elena with an intensity that no longer felt polite or admiring.She tried to ignore it at first. Maybe it was curiosity. Maybe he didn’t mean anything by it. But every time she lif

Elena barely had time to exhale before another presence entered the clearing—gentle footsteps crunching the blood-speckled gravel.“Sweetheart?”The voice was soft, but it stilled Asher instantly.His head turned before his body did. “Mom?”Margot stood at the edge of the courtyard, hands clasped nervously in front of her, eyes shimmering with barely-contained tears. Her gray-streaked hair was pinned back hastily, and she looked like she’d run here in a rush—still wearing an apron dusted with flour.“Asher…” Her voice broke.He didn’t speak. He just went to her.His steps were slow at first, hesitant, but with each stride they grew faster—until he crashed into her arms and buried his face against her shoulder like he was five again and had just skinned his knee. Margot clutched him tightly, murmuring softly in a language only mothers knew.Elena stepped back, heart clenched.It was a sight no one else could offer him: a mother holding her son, grounding him not with duty or titles but

Asher’s breathing had steadied against her chest, but the tension clinging to his body told Elena his storm hadn’t fully passed. She could feel it in the way his arms held her like a lifeline—tight, desperate, almost reverent.She shifted slightly to cradle his jaw, lifting his face until their eyes met.“You’re my mate,” she whispered.The words weren’t said to soothe.They were truth.Powerful. Undeniable.“I know what that means,” she continued, fingers brushing the tears from his cheeks. “It means you’ll fight for me. Kill for me if you have to. You didn’t attack out of rage alone, Asher. You reacted because someone laid hands on your bonded mate. You were protecting me.”His eyes shimmered with grief and awe.“And while what happened tonight was violent… it wasn’t senseless,” she added. “It wasn’t cruelty. It was instinct. Love, twisted in the face of danger.”“But love shouldn’t look like *that,*” he rasped. “Elena… there was blood on my hands. And for a second—I didn’t even car
The Alpha's Obsession Chapter 141
The silence held like a fragile glass dome—ready to crack with the next breath.Elena slowly stood from the stone bench, her hand still laced with Asher’s. The blood had dried on his knuckles, a dark contrast to her soft, steady fingers. Around them, the night air hummed with unspoken tension. Somewhere beyond the walls, the pack waited. Watched. Whispered.She lifted her chin.And walked forward.“Asher,” she said quietly, her voice a thread of steel wrapped in silk, “stay here. Breathe.”He nodded, reluctant but obedient, his eyes never leaving her.She turned toward the courtyard’s archway where the first lines of pack members had begun to gather—hesitant, uncertain, wide-eyed. Grayson stood among them, stiff and unreadable. Lena hovered just behind him, arms crossed but eyes flickering with something—something like waiting.Elena stepped into view.“Enough,” she said.The word sliced through the air.Dozens of heads turned toward her. Murmurs died. Shoulders squared.Her tone wasn

The Shattering Calm: “I told you not to touch her.”Asher’s voice was low, guttural—nearly inhuman. His body was a blur of motion.“No—!”Nathan’s scream barely left his lips before a sickening crack echoed through the air.Then silence.The kind that wraps around the lungs and crushes.The kind that halts time.Gasps broke out in waves. A few stumbled back. Others covered their mouths. A baby somewhere wailed. But no one moved.Nathan’s body hit the stone floor with a finality that silenced even the torches.He wasn’t breathing.Not twitching.Not alive.Elena didn’t scream. She couldn’t.Her breath had left her the moment Nathan’s hand had clamped around her wrist.Now, standing there, the imprint of his fingers still burning her skin, she stared—at the lifeless heap that had once been a boy she grew up with.And then at Asher.His chest heaved, but his face—gods.His eyes were pitch black, a storm of rage and instinct, his jaw clenched so tight she swore his teeth would shatter.

But her gaze was elsewhere—forward, fixed.She wasn’t done.“Bring them back,” she said suddenly.Ashe

…She’d chosen mercy.And it hadn’t broken her.It had saved her.Elena turned back just as the guards began pulling Connor away, metal cuffs biting into his wrists.“Wait.”Her voice, though quiet, cut through the air like a blade.The guards froze.Connor didn’t lift his head.Asher’s brow furrowed. “Elena?”She stepped forward, her spine straight, her shoulders high. “Don’t lock him back in the dark.”“Elena,” Asher growled, stepping closer, his arm sliding protectively in front of her. “He doesn’t get a choice. He *doesn’t* get comfort.”“He’s not asking for comfort,” she replied. “He didn’t ask for anything.”“He’s a traitor,” Asher snapped. “A criminal. And *you*—you’re the one he nearly destroyed.”“I know,” she whispered.The air between them thickened.Elena turned, meeting the eyes of the guards. “Set him in a monitored cell. One with light. Give him a blanket. Let Vivian sit with him if she chooses.”“You don’t understand what you’re asking,” Asher said, voice low, taut with

…And this time, she was free.The sound of another cell door creaking open shattered the silence.Gasps echoed through the hallway.Elena turned just in time to see guards scrambling down the corridor. One of them barked into a comm-link. “Breach in Cell Block B!”Asher’s head snapped up. “What the hell—?”They rushed toward the second chamber.A small crowd had already gathered. Grayson stood ahead of them, jaw clenched, eyes locked on something—or someone—inside.Elena pushed through just behind Asher.And froze.Vivian was on her knees, clinging to the bloodstained shirt of the man slumped against the wall.Connor.Her mate.Unchained.His arms hung limp, hands cut and bruised, but the metal cuffs that should’ve bound him lay discarded on the floor.“What—” Asher’s voice boomed. “What is this?!”None of the guards answered.They looked afraid.Ashen.One stammered, “She... she forced the door. Said it was her right.”“You let her unchain him?” Asher snapped.“We didn’t touch the cu
