The Alpha's Obsession Chapter 28 : The Comfort of Drawing
The familiar scratch of pencil against paper was soothing. Line by line, she built her mother’s face—the curve of her cheek, the softness of her smile, the warmth in her eyes. For a moment, everything faded. The pain. The bruises. The doubts. All that remained was the quiet rhythm of shading and detail. Then— A scent. Pine and smoke. A presence. Warm and steady. A voice. "You didn’t answer the door." Elena jumped, nearly smudging the drawing as Asher’s voice broke through the silence. Her heart pounded. She turned to find him leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed, watching her with an unreadable expression. His golden eyes flickered to the journal in her lap. "You draw?" Elena hesitated. She wasn’t used to people seeing this part of her. But Asher wasn’t just people. She nodded. He pushed off the doorframe, stepping closer. "Can I see?" Her throat tightened, but after a long pause, she tilted the journal slightly toward him. His

"You’re frowning," Asher’s deep voice broke through the silence.Elena startled slightly, looking up from the book in her hands.He wasn’t even looking at her.He was still at his desk, flipping through documents, one hand holding a pen, the other resting on the desk. Yet somehow, he’d still noticed."What?" she asked, feigning confusion.Asher finally glanced up. His sharp gaze settled on her with unnerving accuracy."You’re frowning," he repeated, tilting his head slightly. "Either you don’t like the book, or something else is on your mind."Elena swallowed, gripping Animal Farm tighter in her lap.It wasn’t the book. She loved this book.It was her thoughts.The ones that had been creeping in the moment she stepped into his office.The moment she realized how perfectly he fit in this world—his world.And how she… didn’t.Elena forced a small smile. "I’m fine."Asher didn’t look convinced.His eyes lingered on her for a moment longer, like he was debating whether to push.Then, fina

"You’re upset about a book?" Elena blinked, startled out of her thoughts. Asher’s voice held an edge of amusement, his lips curving into the faintest smirk as he leaned back in his chair. She hesitated, gripping Animal Farm tighter in her lap. "It’s… not just a book," she murmured. Asher raised a brow, waiting. Elena hesitated again. But something about his quiet patience made it easier to speak. "Boxer," she said finally. "He worked himself to death, believing in something that never truly cared about him." A flicker of something unreadable crossed Asher’s face. "And that upsets you?" Elena looked down at the worn pages, tracing a fingertip over the words. "He was good," she said softly. "And it didn’t matter." The room was quiet for a moment. Then Asher let out a low hum, shifting slightly in his chair. "Life isn’t always fair," he admitted. "But not everyone ends up like Boxer." Elena glanced up, surprised. His gaze was steady. "Some fight back." Her bre

Elena's voice was hesitant. “You were… avoiding me?” Asher exhaled slowly, running a hand through his dark hair. “Not avoiding,” he corrected. “Giving you space.” Elena frowned. “Why?” His jaw tightened for a moment before he sighed, eyes locking onto hers. “Because my wolf—Leo—was restless. He wanted you close. Needed you close.” Her breath hitched. “But I didn’t want to overwhelm you,” Asher continued, his voice quieter now. “I thought… after everything, you might need time to adjust.” Elena’s mind reeled. He had stayed away—not because he didn’t want her—but because he cared enough to give her space? “The frustration you saw,” Asher went on, “it wasn’t anger. It was… pain.” His fingers curled slightly at his sides. “Pain of being too far from you.” A warmth bloomed in Elena’s chest, unfamiliar and terrifying all at once. She had spent years believing she was unwanted, a burden no one cared to carry. Elena swallowed hard, forcing herself to meet his gaze. “You—”

Elena felt safe. It was a foreign sensation—one she hadn’t allowed herself to experience in years. The rhythmic motion of Asher’s fingers stroking her hair, the steady rise and fall of his chest beneath her, the warmth of his arms wrapped around her—it all lulled her into a sense of peace she never knew she needed. Her eyelids grew heavy, her body melting into his embrace. For the first time in what felt like forever, she allowed herself to relax. Then— A loud growl broke the silence. Not from Asher. From her stomach. Elena froze. Her eyes flew open in horror as heat flooded her face. Asher stilled beneath her before a deep chuckle rumbled from his chest. “Well,” he murmured, amusement lacing his tone. “That was unexpected.” Elena wanted to disappear. She tried to move away, but Asher tightened his hold, his grip firm yet gentle. Then, before she could protest, he tilted her chin up with his fingers, forcing her to meet his gaze. His amber eyes burned i

Elena barely had time to process what was happening before Asher grabbed her hand, his firm grip steadying yet possessive. He didn’t say a word as he pulled her toward the door, but she could feel the silent determination radiating from him. Her heart thudded painfully against her ribs as they stepped out of his office, and the moment they entered the hallway, it felt like all eyes turned toward them. Whispers. Stares. Elena’s breath hitched. She knew what they were thinking. Knew what the pack saw when they looked at her. A runt. A nobody. The weakest link standing beside the most powerful alpha they had ever known. The weight of their judgment crushed her, suffocating in a way she hadn’t expected. Her fingers instinctively twitched, and she tried to pull her hand free, but Asher tightened his grip. “Don’t,” he murmured, his tone firm yet soothing. Her stomach knotted as she looked up at him, but he wasn’t looking at her. His gaze was trained on the pack

An Unsettling Encounter in the Kitchen: When they finally reached the pack’s kitchen, Elena could still feel her nerves lingering. She kept close to Asher, not wanting to draw attention to herself, but she knew that was impossible now. Everyone had seen them. And they wouldn’t stop talking about it. She inhaled deeply, trying to shake the unease when— “Asher, darling, it’s been a while.” Elena’s stomach twisted at the voice. She didn’t even need to look to know who it was. Tessa. One of Vivian’s friends. One of the girls who used to stand back and laugh while Elena was tormented. Elena stiffened, instinctively stepping closer to Asher. Tessa was beautiful, with perfect blonde curls and sharp green eyes that always seemed to hold a hidden agenda. Her smile was too wide, her voice too sweet—everything about her screamed fake. And she was looking at Asher like she owned him. “Tessa.” Asher acknowledged her with a cold nod, his hand tightening around Elena’s

"Oh, poor little Elena, still lurking in the shadows?" Vivian’s voice was dripping with mockery, loud enough for the entire room to hear. Elena froze mid-step, her fingers tightening around the fabric of her sleeves. She hadn’t meant to stop. She should have kept walking. She should have ignored them. But it was too late. The conversation had already snared her like a trap. Vivian and Tessa were seated on the plush couches in the pack’s spacious living room, their laughter ringing through the space like a chorus of cruelty. They weren’t alone. A handful of other pack members lounged around, watching the exchange with thinly veiled interest. Some even smirked, eager to see a show. Elena forced herself to breathe, willing her feet to move forward. If she could just make it to the door, maybe— "Going somewhere?" Tessa’s voice was sickly sweet, her eyes glinting with amusement. Elena’s heart pounded. She tried to step around them, but Vivian stretched o

The Alpha's Obsession Chapter 145:Bound by Blood and Fury
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
