All Chapters of The Stripper Alpha: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Hastening after Erica, we made our way to the living room, where Ashvin was seated alongside Kai and someone else a much older man who was probably an Elder.He immediately rose and bowed when he saw us approaching.I gave him a small smile before turning to Ashvin with a confused expression.What was this about?“You’re here.”Ashvin’s voice caught my attention. He tilted his head slightly, his eyes slowly raking over me in a way that made heat creep up my neck.His gaze was appreciative.Very appreciative.I found myself blushing under his attention.And somehow, it brought me right back to the question that had been lingering in my mind since I woke up.Did he sleep beside me last night?I pushed the thought away before it could distract me.“Who do we have here?” Aly asked as she took a seat beside Kai, her eyes fixed on the Elder.“I heard you were looking for the truth about Harold and Selene.”The old man’s voice immediately caught my attention.“I might know a thing or two.”I

The howl ripped through the forest again. This time it wasn’t alone, another answered from somewhere deeper within the trees.Then another from somewhere that didn’t sound too far. My blood ran cold, we are surrounded.I moved before I could process what was really happening.“Quick, protect the princesses.” I quickly ordered the warriors and they are moving in circles as some are already by her side ready for whatever is coming.Zen is growling right inside me, wanting to come out and face whatever was in the woods right now.Kai is standby as his shoulder bumped to me, showing me he is right here where I needed him to be.My eyes move to the man who had made us make the trip to this place, and whatever I found on him was not what I had been expecting. He looks totally unfazed.“You knew they were coming? That something was out there waiting for us to show up?” I questioned him from where I stood, gesturing one of the guards to seize him immediately.“I told you, they know where she

I looked at Ashvin, repeating to him the exact words I had just heard from the voices in the archive.“Is it possible there could be people locked up somewhere in here? It makes no sense.”What he had repeated to me made me question how much I must have told him without realizing it, but right now, we couldn’t focus on that.“Do you think the symbol and the voices I’ve been hearing are somehow connected?” I asked.After mulling it over for a moment, he nodded.“I don’t want to believe that, but I suspect they are connected. This here…” He pointed at the symbol. “I’m sure this wasn’t here when we started the search. Somehow, it appeared all of a sudden. We need to know what is truly happening and, for once, find a single solution to all of this.”I couldn’t agree with him more.He handed me one of the books and took the succession book for himself.“We need more information about this symbol. I know for a fact we’re going to find something about it in one of these books, so search.”I

ZAHRA-ROSELong after my sister and I had left the archive after realizing that Ashvin was no longer there, I find myself standing right back at the door of the place.Something is calling me to this place. Something wants Eira and me to be back here. And I want us to come alone.So I don’t question myself when I walk right back inside.“Maybe this is it. Maybe we can find more here.”I take a deep breath as I walk inside the archive, and immediately, I feel that chill. The same one I felt earlier.It crawls over my skin, raising goosebumps along my arms.My eyes slowly adjust to the darkness inside.The archive looks exactly the same as it did before.Rows and rows of old books. Dust-covered shelves.Ancient records that have been sitting here for centuries.But somehow, it feels different. Like the room knows I am here.Eira shifts restlessly inside me.‘They are here.’I swallow.“Who?”She doesn’t answer immediately.I take another step, and my heart begins to beat faster. I look

I stepped into the room, remembering exactly how it had felt the very first time I came in here.It was warm and cold at the same time, but unlike the room in my old chambers, this one felt more homely, more lived-in.When Ashvin was running from the duties that constantly plagued his mind, this place seemed to be his safe haven.And now, he was making it mine too.“Is this not like your secret room? Why are you making me share it?” I asked, still taking myself on a tour of the room.It was huge. Every corner I looked at had a book or two tucked into it, making the place feel even more like him.The bed was perfectly made, without a single wrinkle in sight, but it was obvious that someone slept on it regularly.It was a massive mahogany bed, and something told me I would be sleeping in it too.A thrill shot through me at the thought.Not a bad thing at all.Ashvin was still at the door, directing the wolves carrying my belongings where to put everything and which areas were
