The dungeon was colder than any winter Elysia had ever known. The stone floor bit into her knees, and her fingers trembled where the ropes chafed her wrists. She pressed her palms to her face, trying to still her racing thoughts, but they refused to calm.

It had been hours maybe longer. Time had lost meaning here. Only the drip of water from the damp ceiling, the occasional scuff of a guard’s boot, and the steady rhythm of her own heartbeat marked the passing moments.

She should not be alive.

  • The Cursed Alpha   Endurance

    The chamber was a masterclass in atmospheric cruelty. It was a place of high ceilings and cold stone, designed to swallow sound, yet it smelled intimately of human frailty: the bitter tang of old smoke, the earthy scent of cured leather, and the metallic, cloying salt of blood.Elysia’s head hung forward, a dead weight supported only by the agonizing tension in her shoulders. Her breath came in shallow, uneven gasps that whistled through teeth gritted so hard they felt ready to shatter. Above her, the iron manacles bit into her wrists, her arms having long since passed the stage of numbness into a throbbing, rhythmic fire.Every muscle in her body was a frayed wire, vibrating with a fatigue so deep it felt structural. But it was her back that dominated her consciousness. It burned with a searing, relentless heat a map of agony drawn in jagged lines. The air in the room, though cool, felt like lye against the raw ribbons of her skin.She had stopped counting the lashes at twelve. Or pe

  • The Cursed Alpha   The queens judgment

    Alaric entered the grand hall of Goldtower, letting his eyes sweep over the polished floors, the banners of gold and white, the rows of armored soldiers standing stiff as statues. The Alpha’s presence demanded respect even before words were spoken, and Alaric allowed himself a small, controlled inhale. He would need it.Corvin flanked him to the left, Edric to the right, and already the game of subtle mischief had begun.“Notice how stiff these guards are,” Corvin whispered, tilting his head. “I would faint under such tension. Or perhaps I’d faint from boredom.”Edric muttered, “Do not distract me, Corvin. One misstep and the entire room becomes a battlefield.”Corvin grinned, leaning closer to Alaric. “One misstep? I am dangerously skilled in missteps. Watch and learn, dear Alpha.”Alaric pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to focus. He had traveled here to negotiate peace, not to babysit two grown men who clearly considered the mission a theatrical performance.He spotted Gwaine

  • The Cursed Alpha   Arrival at Gold tower

    The gates of Goldtower rose before them like carved stone sentinels, the sun catching the white and gold spires in a way that made Alaric squint against the glare. Even from a distance, the city exuded order and power, polished streets and banners flapping with authority. The air smelled faintly of salt from the nearby river, mixed with the distant tang of smoke and roasting meat.Corvin nudged Alaric with an elbow. “Ah, Goldtower. Look at it! So clean. So… properly civilized. I feel oppressed already. Where is the chaos? Where is the charming disorder that makes life exciting?”Edric’s voice was deadpan as ever. “It is a city preparing for visitors. Civility is part of diplomacy. Remember what you taught us?”Corvin raised one perfect brow. “Ah yes, lessons from the brooding Alpha. Smile politely, don’t crush heads, and for heaven’s sake, try not to look terrifying while doing it.”Alaric snorted, unable to resist the small smile that tugged at his lips. “Do either of you intend to b

  • The Cursed Alpha   The journey to gold tower

    Alaric adjusted the strap of his travel pack and let out a sigh that carried the weight of responsibility, exhaustion, and a hint of irritation. Beside him, Corvin smirked, lounging casually on his horse, one boot dangling over the side like he owned the world — which, in some ways, he did, at least in charm.“Really,” Alaric began, glancing at Corvin, “must you make that face every time I frown?”Corvin arched a perfectly groomed brow. “I make faces only for the deserving, Alaric. And you, my friend, are exceptionally dour today. Truly, a sight for sore eyes.”Edric snorted behind them, hands folded over the pommel of his saddle. “Dour, yes. But he’s also grouchy. You’ve been pacing for ten minutes straight, and it’s not even sunrise.”Alaric glared at both of them. “I am preparing my mind for diplomacy. A serious meeting. A meeting of Alphas.”Corvin’s grin widened. “Ah, yes. Seriousness. Because nothing says ‘diplomacy’ like three men on horseback arguing over whose horse farts the

If anyone entered Alaric’s private chambers uninvited, if anyone came into contact with him even by accident they would not survive. Yet she had. She had walked into the library, touched nothing forbidden, and left with nothing harmed. And still… here she was.Elysia lowered her hands, staring at the cold, uneven floor. Her heart ached with confusion. How could this be? How could she survive a curse that the Queen insisted was absolute? Something that, according to e

  • The Cursed Alpha   The line they should not have been crossed

    Elysia did not stop smiling until she reached the corridor outside the dining hall.The moment the doors closed behind her, the expression slipped from her face as if it had never existed.She leaned briefly against the stone wall, exhaling through her nose.Annoyed, she reminded herself.Still ann

    Morning light crept into the chamber like it was trespassing. It had been an interesting night before, Elysia tried to kill an Alpha but failed and somehow she had survived it.Elysia noticed it immediately because she had been awake for hours, lying stiffly atop the bed as though it might accuse h

    Elysia did not remember how she left the courtyard.Only that she did.She remembered the way his hand had wrapped around her waist firm, unapologetic, far too intimate for someone who had nearly killed her less than a day ago. She remembered the way his eyes had held hers, storm-grey and intent, a

    The words echoed in Elysia’s mind long after they were spoken.Will you make babies with me?For a heartbeat, the world ceased to exist. No rage. No fear. Just disbelief so sharp it left her dizzy.“Are you mad?” she finally asked, her voice hoarse, raw from terror and exhaustion, her eyebrows furr
