One Night with Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Mia Miller.I wake up with a start, my body drenched in sweat, my heart pounding as if I had just run a marathon. Looking around, I realize I’m safe, but the feeling of dread doesn’t leave me. It was just a nightmare, but the fear and anxiety remain alive inside me.I dreamed of my son. Or rather, it wasn’t really a dream. It was a reflection of my worst fears, a painful reminder of everything that was at stake."My love, you’re going to be okay," I whisper, trying to convince myself as much as him. Lorenzo. My Lorenzo. The memory of the day he was born fills my mind, so sweet, so fragile. His tiny body fit in my hands like an extension of my own being. In the maternity ward, only my father was there, beaming with the idea of being a grandfather. He never judged me, he was just an incredible grandfather to Lorenzo, something I can never thank him enough for.Sometimes, I find myself wondering how different my life would be if I had looked for Ethan earlier. Maybe Lorenzo would be safe

Ethan GreenwoodI went to the bar to sort out a few things: bills to pay, debts to collect, inventory to check, problems, and more problems.Even though I have plenty of resources to delegate tasks, I like to keep an eye on things myself.My beta approaches, his expression a bit serious as he stops in front of my desk."Alfa.""Hey, Nick." I said calmly while looking over some papers."We've got a lead on your pup." he said, narrowing his eyes slightly.I quickly pulled my attention away from the pile of paperwork and focused on him."What did you find?" I asked."A pack of wolves. They’re hunting and selling bounties. Some of our informants saw him with a kid that matches Lorenzo’s description.""And why would they pick him?""That's what we need to find out, sir."I ran my hand through my hair. "Damn strays," I growled.He was just a two-year-old boy, surrounded by wild wolves and criminals. The little kid I didn’t even know was my son, whom I never had the chance to see.The fury i

Ethan GreenwoodMy Lamborghini was parked in front of the mansion, lined up with the other million-dollar homes in the neighborhood. Though close together, each house felt isolated, as if the residents avoided any contact. I chose this neighborhood for its discretion and the low foot traffic. It was the kind of place where no one asked questions."Sir, everything is ready," one of the wolves informed me while adjusting the vehicle.We rarely used weapons—only when absolutely necessary. I preferred to feel my enemies' blood on my hands, or better yet, on my fangs.I hated the feeling of being cornered, of not having control over every detail. This plan couldn’t fail; there was no room for error. An innocent life was at stake.The life of the son I hadn’t even known existed until now.I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the exhaustion. Last night had been awful. Nightmares tormented me, and my control over my transformations was growing weaker.Nick entered the room with a deep sigh."

Ethan GreenwoodThe only certainty I had that night was that I would feel like a piece of shit if I failed to rescue the pup."I need you to stay here," I ordered Mia, who was completely silent.She just nodded. Her eyes were wide, distant, as if she had seen a ghost—or something worse.I watched her. Her utterly angelic features could drive any being insane. Her light hair, contrasted with her sweet eyes, would make any wolf forget his responsibilities.I couldn’t understand why. Never had a human attracted me this way, and now I had a child with one. There was something extremely familiar about this woman. I just didn’t know what.I followed the tracks on the earth, still wet from last night’s rain. The night was dragging on, and so far, the bastards hadn’t shown up.My men were ahead of me until we spotted a small cabin in the middle of nowhere. In the forest, it was easy to hide—if you had the skill. And these kidnappers did.I sniffed as much as I could. It was their scent—I knew

Mia MillerMy hands were trembling as I observed the creature in front of me. A large gray wolf, its eyes staring at me as if it were about to devour me at any moment, and I breathed slowly, afraid that even the smallest movement would end my life. I saw it... I knew that it was Ethan, but at the same time, it seemed like it wasn’t, and everything was confusing.My breathing was heavy, every breath I took felt like a monumental effort. I didn’t know whether I should run, scream, or just curl up on the ground and wait for it to end. I didn’t know if Ethan had control over this form, or if at any moment he could attack me without thinking twice. But one thing was certain: I was caught in a much bigger problem than I could have ever imagined.“What are you… Ethan?” My voice came out as a whisper, barely audible, as I tried to understand what was happening. How had I ended up involved in something so surreal? How was any of this real?The wolf took a step forward, and my heart stopped for
