Fated to the Enemy のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Dahlia's POV Mentally I was slapping myself in the head for opening my big mouth. One thing I am still trying to learn is to think before I just blurt shit out.Usually I have Alanah to help me curb my speech, but with her basically hibernating to work through the pain she is taking away from me, I spoke out again without thinking first.Why did I mention the dungeons? I don't want to be in there, suffering in the cold dankness of a concrete room, caged like an animal. Not that I know what his dungeons may be like, but that sure is what ours are like.Cold, vile places that smell of death and rot. Basically the scent of a rogue stuck inside darkness that will chill you down to your bones.My heart was racing, I could feel it as it pumped harshly in my chest, slamming into my ribcage at the thought of what my father would have done if the tables were turned.A female of a high ranking from this pack, crossing our borders, she would stand no chance. He would have either killed her inst

Dahlia's POV Continued I walked around the room a bit after Lottie left me alone in here. Running my fingers along the books as I admired them. He had quite the collection of classics, as well as some steamy stuff as well.I had heard the rumors he had a mate, but she had passed away, I wondered if maybe those were her books. I didn't think an Alpha would be interested in reading such things.I stopped at the door that was supposed to lead to his bedroom. Sliding my hand along the door as it settled on the small doorknob. I felt my heart fluttering in my chest as I became overly nervous.Shaking my head I pulled my hand back, wondering why my body seems to react to him in this way. Maybe because of everything I just had been through. I have heard that women tend to have transgressions with another male after a rejection or a loss, as a way of numbing the pain they are experiencing. Could that be what it is? Am I seeking some type of comfort, even if it is from the one man that I sho

Alpha Damien's POV Continued "Let me know the instant you hear anything, anything at all."Thinking about it, my men will be caught, they hold a scent no matter how hard they will attempt to mask it."Actually, Alexi, call them back, I'm going out there."His eyes went wide as I stood up before starting to walk back from around my desk."You can't be serious! You can't go over that way, what if they...""They what!? They won't catch my scent but they could catch theirs. I do not want my men at risk of the likes of the Knight's when they don't have to be.I'm headed out now so call them back this minute Beta."I saw him flinch back a bit but I didn't have the time to worry about his feelings, or about how on edge Mikko was when I knew the shift would help put him at ease.As I left the packhouse, I looked up to where her window sat without thinking. Staring up there I felt a flutter before shoving it back down, turning, then heading into the woods.Once I shifted I started running thr

Dahlia's POV Continued My heart raced in my chest, pounding deeply as I heard the blood rushing into my ears.Now that Alanah was present again, even if she wasn't at full strength yet, she held back the pain from me, just as she has done since I was fourteen. Scents were hitting into me harshly.Not knowing anyone besides the Alphas, who was stronger than ever now, I didn't recognize the scent behind the door.I stood there, frozen in my spot as it truly became a reality to me that I was no longer home, that I was in enemy territory within the walls of the Alpha my father hated more than any other. Which is saying a lot, because he seems to despise most others that were high ranked.God complex, that's what he has. He thinks he's some descendant of Fenrir or some shit with the way he acts all high and mighty at all times. Not that he is related to Fenrir, he just seems to think he is above everyone. I honestly wonder if his issue with me going after the Alpha title was because of m

Dahlia's POV Continued Everything about this moment felt intimate, more intimate than anything I had ever experienced before. The way his touch was so gentle, or how it felt to have his touch on my skin. I couldn't understand the pull I was feeling as Alanah seemed to become completely complacent in the moment, almost as if she would allow him to do anything he pleases to us without any kind of fight at all.I sat there, perfectly still, trapped within the moment, within the feel of him that I hadn't even noticed that the pain I had been feeling had completely vanished all together.He slowly stood up, his eyes glowing brightly as they stayed locked on mine so I was looking up at him. He outstretched his hand to me, my hand responding to him, reaching out to hold his hand before I could even think about what was actually happening.He helped me stand, then led me to my bed where he turned me to face him with my back to the bed. His hands wrapped around my waist with ease as he lifted
