All Chapters of Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate: Chapter 351 - Chapter 360

AlexeiI take a step toward the door, ready to head out, but something holds me back. I glance over my shoulder and find her still standing there. She hasn’t moved.I turn around fully, eyes falling on her hands. They’re clasped tightly in front of her, fingers wound together like she’s holding herself in place. Her shoulders are slightly hunched, her gaze unfocused. Like she’s here but also not.“Irene?” I walk back to her, voice soft. “What’s wrong?”She looks up slowly, like it takes effort. Her lashes flutter once before she speaks.“I... I don’t know. I just... I’m feeling anxious,” she admits, her voice barely above a whisper. She bites the inside of her cheek, eyes flicking down again. "I don't like going out... it makes me nervous."My heart clenches a little at her words. Not because she’s anxious, but because she trusted me enough to say it out loud.“You don’t need to think about anything else right now,” I say, gently reaching for her hands. “I’m gonna be right there with

AlexeiElder Merope turns to me with a small nod. "Alexei," she says, "raise your hand. Palm up."I do as she says, lifting my hand in front of me. A second later, she gently takes Irene’s hand and places it in mine.Her skin is cool and soft, and right away, something in my chest relaxes. That feeling... that peace, wraps around me again, just like it always does when she’s close.Her hand’s trembling a little. Not much, but enough that I notice. I wrap my fingers around hers, holding her tight, just enough to let her know she’s not alone.I lean closer, just enough so she can hear me. “You are okay,” I whisper. “You don’t have to worry about anything now.”She doesn’t say anything, but she nods just a little, and her grip lightly tightens on mine.Merope signals to someone, and a few seconds later, two young wolves walk forward, carrying a silver tray between them. It’s covered with a light blue cloth that shimmers under the moonlight.When they reach us, Merope steps closer and slow

AlexeiAs we pull into the driveway, I catch her looking out the window. Her face is calm, but her eyes are moving like she's soaking it all in. She doesn’t ask where we are, not even a whisper. She trusts me, or at least she’s trying to.Normally, the distance from the packhouse to my place can easily be covered on foot, but since Irene's stuff is in the car, I took the car.I cut the engine and glance her way. “Normally, I stay at the packhouse,” I tell her, keeping my voice easy. “But since you’re with me now, I figured you might want a place that’s a little more... I don’t know, peaceful. A place you can have to yourself.”She turns toward me, blinking like she’s not sure how to take that. “Thanks,” she says quietly. “But I don’t wanna be a bother. I can stay wherever you want me to. I am okay with anything.”I shake my head and reach out, laying my hand over hers. “Irene, you’re not a bother. You’re my responsibility now. It is my duty to take care of you.”She doesn’t pull away.

AlexeiHer laugh echoes around us, loud and wild and completely unfiltered, and damn if it doesn’t do something to me. Her whole face lights up, cheeks flushed, eyes crinkling, and for a second, the weight she carries just melts off her. That glow on her face... it loosens something in my chest, something tight that I didn’t even know was wound up. My wolf perks up too, proud like we’ve done something right just by getting her to let go.I don’t think I’ve ever heard anything this honest... this pure before.I think maybe Sophia was right. Everything probably just hit Irene all at once. The changes, the new place, the people, the chaos, it’s been a lot. I didn’t see it at first, but it makes sense now, why she suddenly pulled back. I thought I’d messed something up, but no... she just needs time to settle in. To breathe. I’m glad I stopped by Sophia’s before grabbing groceries. I didn’t think asking her for advice would help this much, but it did.Irene needs space to feel safe. And I

AlexeiAsk me to jump into a battle with a thousand rogues, and I wouldn't even blink. I'd dive in without thinking twice. But sitting here, trying to talk to Irene? It feels like the hardest damn thing I’ve ever had to do.I’m running the words through my head, trying to make sense of them. How do I explain something that never made sense to me in the first place? How do I tell her about Stella… and the truth behind what that bond really is or isn’t?I glance at her, hoping for some kind of reaction. Anything. But her face is calm. Too calm. Like she shut a door and locked it from the inside. And I feel it, that invisible wall between us. It’s there, cold and thick, and it’s messing with my head more than I want to admit.I rake a hand through my hair and drop my head, letting my hands rest behind my neck. I breathe in deep, hoping it’ll help settle the tightness in my chest. Then I lift my head and catch her holding the union crystal I placed beside me earlier. Her fingers are wrapp
