All Chapters of The Alpha and the traitor's daughter : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Lucien I needed to stop thinking about her and now, it felt like I had been intoxicated by her.  But the moment I left the elders' meeting that night, my feet moved on their own, leading me toward the hospital to see the lady who was about to destroy my mental state.  The meeting with the elder's had been long, filled with endless discussions about the state of the pack, the rival pack trying to gain ground in the North, and some other trivial issues that made it difficult for me to think properly.  Yet, despite all the pressing issues, it was Irene’s face that filled my thoughts. Every time I tried to focus on anything else, her face, her eyes, her scent, the softness of her lips against mine flooded my mind, blocking everything else from coming.  I clenched my jaw and let out a breath, disappointed and irritated with myself by what

Lucien “Irene! Irene!!” I called her name multiple times as I shook her body and my heart could not stop racing fast because of what just happened.  Did she just collapse? No, this has to be a joke! One moment, she was staring at me with that defiant fire in her eyes, and the next, her body gave way.  Luckily for me, I was able to catch her before she hit the ground and that was a great relief.  My anger which was sharp and burning just moments ago, evaporated the second her knees gave way. My heart slammed against my ribs, and for a moment, I forgot why I was even furious.  All I could see was her fragile body which was utterly defenseless. Her body was still warm but her breathing was not normal. Something was definitely wrong somewhere and I had no idea what it was. &nbs

LucienI was unable to overcome the disappointment wrapping around me. The moment Irene said she was cursed, something inside me shattered. Was this really true or was she trying to pull my legs?I couldn't tell but I felt a feeling inside me that I didn't want to talk about. Why did she suddenly talk about it? There was no way I would want to involve myself with a cursed person. It would mean that myself and my lineage would be cursed. Oh, damn it! I had wanted to mark her. I had wanted to claim her and make her mind. But, she had the boldness to look me dead in the eyes and tell me I would die if I loved her. I was not the type that should be afraid of curses. But, there was something different about this. It sounded so much like a lie and at the same time, it sounded so true. That was what confused me the most. If it was a lie then it was a cunning and desperate attempt to push me away from her. I had never been a man who tolerated deceit. But if it was true, I had to be

LucienI enjoyed the way these two ladies attacked themselves. They made things more fun and more tense. All of these make me forget my worries for a brief second. While that was good, it wasn't a responsible way of handling things. I leaned back in my chair with my arms crossed as I watched Irene and Eve glare at each other like two wolves about to tear into each other's flesh.Eve was quite predictable. She had a sharp tongue and could barely conceal her anger. But Irene? She was very different from Eve. She had a way of revenging and making you pay for the crime you committed just by getting under your skin like thorns.Chris sat stiffly beside me, watching what was playing out in front of us. He began to communicate through the mind link to me and I could see exactly what he was talking about. "She’s unbearable. Get rid of her,” he said, talking about Irene. I tightened my face, suppressing the irritation that he creeped onto me. I had expected something more intelligent fr

IreneMy intrusive thoughts were at it again but I couldn't let them win this time if I wanted to get what I wanted. Camille had told me to meet her at the training grounds at dawn, and I had spent most of the night thinking about what exactly I wanted to gain from this.Was it the strength? The confidence? The ability to protect myself?Perhaps, it was all of the above. I had been powerless for too long and that needed to change.I walked toward the training ground, away from where warriors usually trained. My mind was already running through the possible explanations I could give if I were caught. Maybe I could lie that I wanted to watch the pack soldiers on the other end who were training. I could make it look like I was just simply curious because of the penalty. But all of that fell away when I heard Lucien’s voice from afar. "Rest for now. We cut off contact with others at the border until further notice."I slowed my steps, and rolled my eyes. .Cut off contact? Why?The p
