All Chapters of ALPHA’s HEART MY PRISON: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Rose’s Point of View“Why did you quit so suddenly? Was the workload too much?” Bianca asked, toothbrush in hand. She looked genuinely surprised when I told her I had resigned.I had been so determined to earn my own money when I took the job.“No, it was for personal reasons,” I replied flatly, lying back on the bed with little enthusiasm.Sensing my lack of interest, Bianca didn’t press further.The next day, Ariel reappeared.We had just finished our morning classes and were having lunch in the university cafeteria when he joined us, setting his tray down beside me.“Why did you quit? I didn’t see you at the restaurant today,” he asked, flashing his usual bright smile. Ariel had always had an infectious energy, a stark contrast to Jack’s cold and distant demeanor. Even when we were children, no matter how much I teased or upset him, he would wipe his tears away and bounce back with that same cheerful grin.“I just didn’t feel like working there anymore,” I said, stirring my soup ab

Ariel’s Point of ViewThe first time I visited the Maroon Hill Pack, I was only eight years old. My father had told me we needed to establish good relations with them because they were a powerful pack. At the time, we were weak and in desperate need of allies.That was when I first met Rose.Before that, I had encountered many princesses from other packs—most of them spoiled, arrogant, and dismissive of weaker packs like ours. I assumed Rose would be the same.But I was wrong.Rose was different. She was kind, cheerful, and full of life. She had a natural instinct to care for those more fragile than herself. Whenever we played together, I would pretend to get hurt just to see her rush to comfort me. She always fell for it, her concern genuine and warm.Like me, Rose wasn’t fond of the rigid rules and traditions of our packs. She had a love for medical books and often told me that she would one day attend the best medical university.I thought we would always be friends.But then the M

The next day, I woke up to find it was already noon. My sleep had been restless, leaving me sluggish and drained. Reaching across the bed, I felt the cool sheets beside me—Jack was gone, and from the temperature, he must have left hours ago.After lunch, I decided to visit Lydia’s house to see Andrea.Lately, Andrea had been growing fast. It had only been a week since I last saw her, but she already seemed bigger. Lydia told me something surprising—Andrea had a crush on a boy at school.Apparently, there was a boy who waited for her outside their house every day.“Andrea,” I teased, arching a brow, “what exactly is your relationship with this boy?”Her eyes widened as she quickly shook her head. “He’s just my friend! Lydia’s making a big deal out of nothing.”I chuckled, deciding not to press further. Andrea was smart—she understood our situation. None of this was permanent. We wouldn’t be staying here long, and forming attachments would only make things harder.After visiting Andrea,

The wind howled outside the university, rattling the windows as I stepped into the café. The place was nearly empty—unsurprising, considering it was already past eleven at night.Ariel was sitting near the window, dressed in a white sweater. The soft yellow light above him cast a warm glow over his features, making him seem almost ethereal in the dimly lit space.I pulled off my thick coat, ordered a black coffee, and slid into the seat across from him. “Why did you call me here?”Ariel exhaled deeply before speaking. “First, I owe you an apology. I hired someone to investigate your life at the Blue Lagoon Pack without your permission.” His tone was calm, but firm. “I did it because I’m worried about you, Rose. I know what you’ve been through, and I can see that Jack still has control over you. You can’t live the rest of your life like this. Let me help you.”I stared down at my coffee, gripping the cup to steady my hands. Ariel’s words held no malice, no hidden agenda. He genuinely w

The day I received the email, I called Jack to ask for his permission to go.“It’s an incredible opportunity,” I explained eagerly. “Our university has been invited to participate in an exchange program at Alphea Medical School, and I was selected. With your permission, I’d like to go.”I tried to keep my voice steady, but deep down, I was nervous. If Jack refused, he would still have control over my life.Jack hesitated. “They have exchange programs every semester. Can’t you just go next time?”“Maybe, but there’s no guarantee I’ll be chosen again.” I pushed my luck, hoping he’d understand how important this was to me.Silence. Then, finally, I heard him sigh.“I always end up feeling powerless when it comes to you… Fine. But you’d better call me when you get there.”I could hardly believe it. Jack had actually said yes.The Day of DepartureAt the airport, I waited with my classmates in the lounge. Heavy snowfall had delayed our flight, and the large windows showed nothing but a cur
