Trapped in the Den of Alphas Chapter 31
Eden's POV PRESENTAll thoughts of Erix drift far away from me as I hear a fist thumping on the old wooden door.“EDEN!! Do you know what time it is? Get up, lazy ass!” Anton’s gruff voice calls out loudly.I groan, throwing the sheets off my body to trudge to the door. I open it just enough to peer out into the hallway.“You had your time off last night. Come on, get moving. Now, elf!” he grumbles.“Oh, so it's elf again, is it?” I question, raising my brow. “Keep your hair on. I’ll be down as soon as I can.”He shakes his head and stomps off like an overgrown man-child.I click the door closed and lean against it, shutting my tired eyes for a few seconds. I hardly slept a wink last night after Mateo revealed the truth of Con’s character to me. Sure, I have always known that he is a dangerous man. A man to be feared. But yesterday, I saw a glimpse of humanity in his eyes. I felt a hint of gentleness in his touch and protectiveness in his manner.I let it cloud my judgment. I let mys

Eden's POVSEVENTY YEARS AGOA slow, satisfied smile touches my lips as he brings his hand to my face, gliding his soft fingertips down my cheek.“You’ve no idea how much I will miss this face.”“Then don’t go,” I plead, already knowing full well that it isn’t an option.He lifts my hand to kiss my palm gently. “I wish I didn’t have to. You know that,” he whispers before giving me a sympathetic look.I pout a little, and he leans forward to land a kiss on my lips. I laugh softly against his mouth and throw my arms around his neck, holding him close to my naked chest. His lips break away from mine as he raises his hand to tug me off playfully. I reluctantly let him go, watching him pull his naked body upright to stand beside the bed.Automatically, my eyes drift to the unique gold medallion around his neck, the symbol of his status. I can’t help but wonder how much simpler life would be if he were just an average elf like myself. But the fact of the matter is that he is not. Not even c

Eden's POVThe sound of my erratic breathing fills the quiet room until he pushes the door closed and walks toward me slowly.I lift my hand up and shake my head, stopping him in his tracks.“Don’t come any closer,” I pant out. “You can’t.”My core still throbs demandingly, my wetness coating the skin between my thighs. If he comes closer…I know that I won’t be able to stop myself. That I’ll be powerless to resist.His jaw tightens, his chest rising and falling as he stares into my eyes for a moment. He then turns away, walking over to his desk.I watch with a mixture of pent-up desire and nervous energy as he pours a drink, lifting it to his lips. The tension in the room is palpable. Encircling us both like an invisible, silent, deadly whirlwind. Then, he sits down on his chair, leaning back to look into my eyes once again.I bite my lip and wait for him to say something… Anything….“You don’t want me to touch you?” he asks lowly.I manage to shake my head slowly in reply.He lifts h

Eden's POV As we reenter the old house through the door, a sense of sadness washes over me. I had prepared myself for it the whole journey back, but it still cuts deep. I turn to see Conall close the door behind us. He looks at me briefly before nodding over my shoulder towards the chaos.It’s then that I register the frantic shouting and yelling as three men pin Henrick to the sofa. He thrashes around wildly against them, his screams of agony filling up the large house.“Eden!” Jarek calls. “We need that remedy, and we need it quick!”Shit.I run over to examine the damage. Henrick is now lying in his underwear. The Blue Thistle burn has spread up over his muscular thigh, turning almost every inch of skin bright blue. “It’s moving faster than I thought,” I say to Jarek. “I need a pestle and mortar. Now,” I order Anton, who takes off toward the kitchen, to fetch them for me.I unpack the basket, laying out the various things I need to double-check everything is accounted for. Within

Eden's POV I follow Conall across the grassy front yard, my eyes focused on the thick trees up ahead. I vaguely notice him turn to look at me, but I’m too distracted by the beauty of the outdoors to care about our strange entanglement right now.As soon as we step inside the forest, my heart swells in my chest, feeling like it might burst at any moment. I close my eyes and revel in the feeling of having nature surround me once again. My ears fill with the sounds of various birds fluttering around in the trees. Birds whose species I can determine by the sound of their tweets alone. The sun’s rays have disappeared for the day, but the evening dusk brings its own pleasures. A cooling sensation trickles across the surface of my skin while the fresh air blows through my hair, lifting it up to billow wildly around my face. I begin to smile.“Eden…”I drop down to the forest floor, reaching my hand out to touch the nearest plant. A Marabell Daisy. An otherwise common and insignificant littl

Eden's POV “Need any help?” Mateo asks, bending down beside me as I scrub the dirty staircase with a scrubbing brush.“Be my guest!” I grin, watching as he drops his hand into the bucket of water to retrieve the other brush.We work in silence, and I can see him examine me closely from the corner of his eye. “You’re quiet today. Are you okay?”“I’m fine.” I shrug.The truth is, I’m anything but. After my complete and utter failure last night, I feel pretty low. Not only was it extremely humiliating, but it was an eye-opening experience too. I was reminded once again of the dangers of this place. Despite settling in somewhat, I don’t belong and never will.“You know, the woman last night...she uh…it’s not anything deep. Sometimes we just need to blow off steam, and it’s the only chance we get to—”I lift my hand to stop him in his tracks. “Mateo, you don’t have to explain yourself to me.”He smiles a little in return. “Okay, well, I just wanted you to know—”“Oh, I don’t think I need

Eden's POVThe nymph follows my line of sight as I stare at the rose, touching it gently. “Do you like it?”“Yes,” I whisper in reply.She smiles at me kindly as she pulls the rose out. I take it from her hands and examine its velvety soft petals with my fingertips.It’s a long shot. A total and ut

Eden's POVThe rest of the morning flies by, and I keep myself busy washing some sheets from the men’s bedrooms per Zeke’s request. Most of them seem like they haven’t been washed this side of the decade.Gross. After soaking them thoroughly, Mateo and a few others take them outside to dry in the

Conall's POVShe stares at me wide-eyed, shuffling herself backward on the bed. My wolf claws at my brain ferociously. To see her as her true self once again only makes the desperation to claim her even more intense. Even more unbearable. I fight the urge with everything I have inside me, my body h

Eden's POV Walking across this silent living room is one of the longest walks I have ever had to take. Everyone is staring at me. Or perhaps I should say, staring at us.The grip Conall has on my hand can only be described as iron-tight. I try to wriggle my fingers subtly to loosen his grasp, but
