บททั้งหมดของ I don't want you Alpha! : บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

Panic surged through me. No. No, no, no. This wasn’t supposed to happen. I wasn’t supposed to be running for my life again. The sound of boots pounding the ground grew louder, sharper. They were coming for me. I didn’t have time to think. I didn’t have time to plan. I just ran. My feet carried me faster than I had ever run before, the city’s streets becoming a blur as I darted between alleyways, desperate to stay one step ahead of the guards who were already hot on my trail. I could hear them shouting orders to each other, their voices cutting through the night. "Spread out! Don’t let him get away!" It felt like the whole world was closing in on me. The weight of the key in my pocket seemed to grow heavier with every step, a constant reminder that I had made a deal that might have just been my downfall. My heart pounded in my chest as I pushed myself harder, feet slamming against the pavement, lungs burning from the effort. I didn’t know where I was going, but I couldn’t stop. I

Priestess POv Tesla, lying on the altar, was still, save for the rise and fall of her chest. She had already given so much—her body, her spirit—everything that was needed to bring this moment to life. But even with her power, I could sense she was nearing her limit.Her face was pale, beads of sweat clinging to her forehead as she clenched her teeth, her hands gripping the edges of the altar. The ritual’s magic was coursing through her, but she was fading, her strength slipping away faster than I had anticipated.I glanced over to the table where Marcus stood, watching with that insatiable hunger in his eyes, the same hunger I had seen in countless others before him. The hunger for power, for control, for more than they could handle.“This is it,” I whispered to myself, even though I knew it was a lie. This was only the beginning. But the child. Tesla’s child. She was the key to everything, the reason we had gone through all this trouble. I could feel her stirring, already reachin

Marcus POV but before I could finish him off, he managed to break free with a violent thrash, his claws slashing through my side, just grazing me. I recoiled, blood seeping from the wound, but the pain only fueled my rage.I growled, my eyes locking onto his. This wasn’t just a fight—it was a statement. A statement that I was the alpha. I was the one in control, and no one—not even Henry—could take that from me.“You’re finished,” I growled, my voice low and dangerous.With a final surge of power, I tackled him to the ground once more, pinning him beneath me. He was no longer fighting back, his body trembling with the effort to stay conscious. I had him. There was no escaping it now.“You will never take anything from me,” I whispered, my breath hot against his ear. “Not now. Not ever.”The moment my claws dug into Henry's throat, I felt the rush of power surge through me, and it was intoxicating. His struggles weakened with each passing second, and I could hear the ragged breaths te

Marcus’s fury was palpable. “Cowards!” he roared at his men. “You dare betray me? After everything I’ve done for you?”One of his soldiers, a burly man with a scar running down his face, stepped forward. “We followed you because we believed in your strength, Marcus. But now? Now we see you for what you are—a man blinded by his own arrogance.”Marcus’s face contorted with rage, but before he could respond, the baby’s cry echoed again, louder and more insistent.“What is that?” Henry demanded, his eyes darting toward the direction of the sound.Marcus’s lips curled into a sinister smile. “That,” he said, his voice trembling with excitement, “is the future. My future. And no matter what you do, you cannot stop it.”I stepped forward, my gaze locked onto his. “You’re wrong, Marcus. We can and we will. Whatever dark power you’ve unleashed, we’ll find a way to stop it.”He laughed again, but it was weaker now, his injuries catching up with him. “You’re a fool, Kael. Always have been. Always

“You’re a stubborn little thing,” I murmured, my voice softer now. She gurgled in response, her laughter fading into soft coos.I sat beside the makeshift cradle, watching her slowly drift off to sleep. Something in my chest tightened, an unfamiliar ache that made it hard to breathe.“Guess we’re stuck with each other, huh?” I whispered.The sound of a saw cutting through wood snapped me back to the present. I reached the factory gates and nodded at one of the workers as I entered. The men here were rough, their lives shaped by hard labor and harder circumstances. But they didn’t ask questions, and that was exactly what I needed.I swung the axe off my shoulder and got to work, each strike a release for the thoughts swirling in my mind. Tesla was probably awake by now, maybe even glaring at me for keeping her in the dark. She didn’t trust me, not fully, and I didn’t blame her.Then there was the child. Henry’s blood. That fact gnawed at me like a thorn in my side. Protecting her felt
