Aria

The tension in the room was unbearable. Not the awkward, surface-level kind. No, this was a thick, choking silence—the kind that stuck to the walls and wrapped around your throat. We were all seated in the living room, but no one was relaxed. No one even moved. The air was heavy with judgment, and I could feel the weight of every unspoken word pressing down on my skin. My chest was tight. Sophia sat beside Rio, looking smaller than I’d ever seen her, despite the mess she’d caused. Dexter w

  • The Cruel Alpha Is My Mate   Chapter 96

    Dexter "Please... just listen to me," she whispered, barely audible through the pounding in my ears. I stared at her. Every inch of her face, every fucking tear trembling in her lashes, was etched into my memory. Still as beautiful as the first day I saw her, but it didn’t matter. None of it did. Not when I could still taste betrayal on my tongue like blood. Not when I still saw Lucas’s blade tearing through my gut every time I closed my eyes. She tried to step forward. "Don’t," I barked, my voice cracking through the cold air between us. My hand moved on its own, reaching into the side of my boot where the handle of the knife waited. I pulled it out slowly, deliberately, letting her see the way the moonlight caught the blade. Her eyes widened. She knew that knife. "You recognize this?" I asked, voice rough, low. I turned it slightly, let the green sheen of the dried poison catch her eye. "Same shit your fucking friend used on me. I nearly died, Aria. Because of you." Her lips

  • The Cruel Alpha Is My Mate   Chapter 95

    AriaThe night was unusually quiet. Still. The kind of stillness that clung to your skin like damp fog, thick and heavy with something unnamed. I stood by the narrow window in the small guest chamber Whitney insisted I use, hands resting on the cool stone sill, my breath fogging up the glass. The moon was high, almost full, casting pale blue shadows across the courtyard of Diamond Spark Pack.I rubbed my arms, the air feeling too thin. Something felt wrong. Deep in my chest, I felt it stir. A tremble beneath the surface of my skin, like the ground quaking before the storm. My senses were off, sharp, too sharp. Every sound felt louder, more distinct—the rustling leaves, the far-off hoot of an owl, the slow shifting of guards below.And then it hit me—his scent.My heart lurched in my chest. I stumbled back from the window, hand clutched over my mouth.Dexter.I hadn’t seen him. I hadn’t heard his voice. But my body recognized him like it always had. My pulse raced, wild and desperate.

  • The Cruel Alpha Is My Mate   Chapter 94

    DexterI stared at the map sprawled out across the table, its surface worn and creased from years of use. My fingers hovered over the inked outlines of territories, tracing the path that led to Diamond Spark Pack. I didn’t even blink. My jaw clenched hard enough to hurt. Every breath I took burned.I was done waiting.I didn’t care what Whitney wanted. I didn’t care about peace. Fuck peace. Aria walked away. She left me bleeding in the dirt and didn’t look back. If that wasn’t betrayal, I didn’t know what the hell was. And if she thought she could hide behind her sister’s walls and her Alpha title, she had another thing coming.I was going to her. I was going to end this, one way or another."You're serious about this?" Marcus, one of the rogue leaders asked from across the room, his brows furrowed, eyes dark with concern. "You really want to strike Diamond Spark?""Dead serious," I muttered, folding the map and standing. The weight of my decision pressed against my spine, but I welco

  • The Cruel Alpha Is My Mate   Chapter 93

    DexterThe knock came sharp and hard against my office door, snapping me out of the paperwork fog I’d been drowning in for the last hour. I didn’t look up."Come in," I muttered, voice low, strained. My fingers still hovered over the stack of reports I'd barely touched.The door creaked open. My gamma stepped in, eyes unreadable, jaw tight."You’re gonna want to hear this," he said.I sighed, finally leaning back in the chair, letting it creak under my weight. "Unless the packhouse is burning down, it can wait."He didn’t move. Didn’t flinch. That was enough to make me look up."What?"He tossed a sleek black envelope onto my desk. No insignia. No seal. Just a folded piece of weighty paper that already reeked of bullshit."It was delivered by one of ours. Said he found it pinned to the training gates this morning."I reached for it slowly, the tension in my chest already beginning to tighten. My fingers dragged it closer. The paper was thick, expensive. Whoever sent this had taste—or

  • The Cruel Alpha Is My Mate   Chapter 92

    DexterWhen I stepped into the training grounds that morning, it was the silence that struck me first. The warriors were already assembled, standing in perfect formation, eyes locked straight ahead. There was a chill in the air, one that mirrored the cold settling in my chest. The quiet wasn’t peaceful—it was expectant, like the calm before a storm. And it made everything feel heavier.“Alpha,” my Gamma said as he approached, nodding his respect. “Everyone’s ready.”I didn’t answer right away. Just watched them—all of them waiting for something. Orders. A fight. Hope. Something I wasn’t sure I could give anymore. My grip on the reins had been too loose for too long. If I didn’t get it together, everything I’d fought for would start to slip through the cracks.“Begin,” I said simply.They moved as one, launching into drills with practiced efficiency. My eyes scanned the field, watching every movement—sword strikes, defensive shifts, the way their bodies responded to pressure. But my mi

  • The Cruel Alpha Is My Mate   Chapter 91

    DexterThe first thing I noticed when I woke up was the cold. Not just the breeze drifting in through the cracked window or the chilled edge to the sheets clinging to my bare skin. No, this was deeper. Colder. A silence that settled under my ribs and wrapped around my bones. Aria was gone, and I felt it in a way that made the air too thick to breathe.I didn’t speak to anyone that morning.Not the guards waiting at my door, not the healers who’d hovered like vultures for the last week. I didn’t say a single word, not even when I stepped into the training grounds and the warriors lined up the moment they saw me.I knew they were watching me closely. Watching how I moved. Looking for signs of weakness, of injury, of anything that could mark me as less than the Alpha I used to be.They didn’t find any.Because if I was anything now, they say it am fucking ruthless, and I like that.I picked up the blade one of them offered me without a word, rolled my shoulders back, and got to work. My

    DexterThe fire in Sophia’s eyes amused me. She sat on the edge of my desk, arms crossed, her lips pressing into a thin line as she glared at me. I leaned back in my chair, swirling the whiskey in my glass, letting the silence stretch. The more I ignored her, the more agitated she became. It was al

    AriaDexter's office was silent except for the distant sounds of the pack house bustling outside. I knew he was watching me. Even when he pretended not to, I could feel the weight of his gaze. It didn’t matter that his expression was cold, unreadable. I had spent enough time with him before knowing

    AriaPeggy was back to her usual self, at least on the surface. Her laughter had returned, her steps were lighter, and she filled every room with the same chatter that made the maid house feel alive. But I could see it, the flicker of something unsettled in her eyes. Trauma had a way of lingering,

    AriaThree days.Seventy-two fucking hours of being locked inside this room, drowning in the stench of failure and suffocating on my own goddamn thoughts.I didn’t move. Just enough to get by. Didn’t sleep.I just sat there, reliving every fucking second of that night—how it all went so perfectly w
