~Aliyana’s POV~

The walls felt smaller with every breath I took. The air in my room was heavy, stale, suffocating. I had lost count of how long I’d been locked away—hours, maybe a day—but the silence pressed against my ears like a punishment. I sat near the window, knees tucked under my chin, staring at the faint sliver of moonlight that cut through the curtains.

Everything still felt unreal.

The look on Nolan’s face when he’d caught me in the dungeon burned in my memory. He hadn’t spoken right away—he didn’t need to. Fury radiated off him like heat from a forge. His eyes had been sharper than I’d ever seen them, not the usual teasing silver glint, not the mocking arrogance I’d grown used to, but something raw, dangerous, unrestrained.

It wasn’t the anger of a man who’d been disobeyed. It was the rage of someone whose control had been publicly challenged.

And I’d done that.

I clenched my fists, trying to push away the image of Alessia, bruised and broken in that cell. The shock on her

  • To Tame The Monster Alpha   Chapter 73

    Aliyana’s POVI knew Nolan felt something shift between us. I felt it too, even if I hated it. The way he looked at me now lingered on my skin like heat, like he was trying to read a language carved into my bones. And maybe he was. Maybe he saw too much.But that didn’t matter anymore. Not when my world had already been ripped apart twice in one day.I couldn’t stay in his room. I couldn’t stay under his watchful eyes or the suffocating silence he wrapped around me like a cage. So when he finally slept, I slipped out into the cold corridors of the fortress.The night outside carried a strange bite. Something brewing. Something waiting.I should have gone back to Alessia’s cell. I should have checked on her again. Instead my feet dragged me to the back courtyard, where the walls were covered in frost and the old training grounds stretched into darkness.That was where he found me.Jerome of Moonshadow.The Alpha the world whispered about with caution. His pack had been crushed by Fangr

  • To Tame The Monster Alpha   Chapter 72

    ~ Aliyana’s POV ~I woke up to warmth.Not the kind that comforted, not the kind that eased bruises or softened nightmares. This one felt wrong. Heavy. Close. Like a presence that did not belong anywhere near me.My eyes opened slowly, adjusting to the dim glow inside Nolan’s room. His room. I shouldn’t be here. I knew that instantly. The air itself felt too still, too tense, too aware.Then I felt it.An arm around my waist. Not loose. Not gentle. Possessive.I stiffened, my entire body going rigid as the memories from last night rushed back. Alessia. The cage. The fire that poured out of my skin without warning. The way Nolan dragged me away. The anger in his voice. The softness that followed. Him pulling the sheets over me like I was something fragile.And now this.Him next to me.His breath was at my neck. Slow. Controlled. Like even in his sleep he needed to announce that nothing here moved without his permission. My heartbeat quickened, loud enough that I feared he would hear i

  • To Tame The Monster Alpha   Chapter 71

    ~ Nolan’s POV ~I didn’t sleep.Couldn’t.Her face wouldn’t leave my head. The fire in her eyes when she burned that cage open, the way she didn’t even flinch when I dragged her away—like she’d already been through worse.Aliyana Morwen Hastings.The girl who never broke.I told myself it was irritation that made me restless. That it was anger keeping me awake. But deep down, I knew that wasn’t it. It was her.Every time she refused to bend, she got under my skin a little more. Every time she looked at me like she could see straight through the armor I’d built, something inside me cracked.I hated it.I hated her for making me feel something I swore I buried a long time ago.The fortress was quiet. Too quiet. Elias had gone to handle the council’s mess, and the guards were scattered. The air itself felt strange, thick with the echo of what happened earlier.I found myself by the balcony, staring down at the courtyard below. The moonlight spilled across the stone walls, sharp and cold.

  • To Tame The Monster Alpha   Chapter 70

    ~ Aliyana’s POV ~When I woke, the first thing I felt was warmth.Not the kind that came from a blanket or the weak rays of morning light that managed to sneak through the fortress windows,but a living warmth. Solid. Steady. Too close.For a moment, I stayed still, my mind hovering somewhere between sleep and confusion. The last thing I remembered was fire, chains, Alessia’s voice screaming that she hated me, and then Nolan—his hands, his command, the sharp bite of his anger.And now… this.I turned my head slowly, my hair brushing against something rough. My breath caught when I saw him lying beside me, one arm draped carelessly across the sheets, his face angled toward me. His eyes were closed, but even at rest, he looked nothing like peace. His jaw was tight, his expression unreadable, as if even his dreams were made of control.Nolan.The name alone was enough to make my pulse stutter.I didn’t understand him. I didn’t think I ever would.The monster who’d ordered my sister beaten

  • To Tame The Monster Alpha   Chapter 69

    ~ Nolan’s POV ~There was something about her that kept clawing at the walls I built around myself. Every time I told myself I was done, every time I convinced myself she was just another burden, another liability, she’d go and prove me wrong in a way that left me staring.Aliyana didn’t cry. Not when the truth about her bloodline was thrown in her face. Not when her so-called sister turned against her. Not even when I left her locked in that cell with nothing but silence for company.She didn’t break.And I hated how much I loved that about her.I told myself it was fascination, not affection. But the more I tried to bury it, the more it grew, twisting inside me like a hunger that refused to die.The fortress was too quiet that night. Elias had gone to deal with the council’s latest panic, and the guards moved with unease, like they could feel something shifting in the air. They were right. Something had shifted.Her.When I walked down the corridor to her room, I already knew what I

  • To Tame The Monster Alpha   Chapter 68

    ~ Aliyana’s POV ~The world outside my cell was silent, but inside me, it wasn’t. It was chaos…fire, wind, and the sharp, unbearable sting of betrayal. I didn’t know which burned worse: the truth about my bloodline, or the way Nolan looked at me afterward—as if I was something filthy. Something is wrong.Selene Morwen.The name replayed in my mind until it became a whisper that wouldn’t stop. My mother. The witch they burned alive. The woman whose screams I could almost hear when I closed my eyes.And Lord Benedict Hastings,my father. The man who stood by and did nothing.I pressed my hands to my temples, my heart hammering so hard it hurt. “Why?” I whispered. “Why didn’t you fight for her? For me?”No answer came. Just the same thick, suffocating silence that had filled my prison since they locked me in here. No food. No light. No one.Not even Nolan.That was what hurt the most. Not the hunger, not the cold,but the emptiness where his presence used to be. I hated that I missed it. H
