All Chapters of Alpha Lucian Obsession: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

ARIAI paced.I don’t know for how long. Ten minutes? Twenty? Time was a blur now, melting together like the troubles in my thoughts. Even my steps were distracting. Goddess, there were a lot of things I was clueless about.The werewolf council.The auction.The phantom order.My inner court council.The Elders.Tobias… Whitee was right. I wasn't ready one bit. The only way I could stop myself from going mad was to bite my fingers…chewing until I tasted blood. Fuck! My eyes caught the envelope seating on the table.From Rowan.It wasn't what I expected the messenger to tell me when he handed the envelope to me. But I guess my status has changed now. I even had a messenger. I've picked it up three times now, read the handwriting, turned it over, and then dropped it again.What was I going to do with a letter sent from Rowan?I hate this feeling of cluelessness. Why did Lucian leave? Why did he have to leave like that? I wrapped my arms around myself, forcing air into my lungs. The more

LUCIAN “So what do you want from me now?”“Albena has taken over the pack.”“What the fuck?” Kael stood up, unable to contain his surprise. “How did she…?”I didn’t blame him. It took a few minutes, but it finally sank in.“Oh.” Kael slowly sat back down. “She has no idea.”I nodded. “That’s why I need you.”“Is she your mate, Lucian?”I gave him another nod.“Okay, this is messed up. I didn’t sign up for this shit. Your problems aren’t my problems. You better fix it with her and stop asking me stupid questions.”Ouch. That stung— especially coming from Kael. He had just realized he was the key to making Aria believe I wasn’t trying to hurt her… yet he was acting like he knew everything.“I’m sorry if I hurt you, Kael.”“No. You’re just saying that because you need my help. You know what? Now I see why the others call you heartless. You’ve hurt me enough. Hell, you’ve hurt Aria enough. Is it too hard to tell her you fucking love her and can’t live without her? Why are you putting her

DARIUS I stalked across the room and crouched before the large chair behind the desk, sniffing the armrest.My eyes snapped open. It wasn't just one visit either. This scent was embedded into the grain. Whoever this wolf was… she'd sat here…multiple times. A little too long, and perhaps relaxed. It was like she lived here.My lips twitched. I moved to the couch, pushed into the corner of the room and sniffed again. The scent was stronger there. A little sweat. A little fear. But also… comfort. A fucking blanket draped across it still held her body heat. I picked it up, buried my face in it.Certainly omega, but not just any omega. My eyes scanned the entire place. Maybe I was drawing a conclusion too fast for me to handle. It was better to search for more clues.Ash would neve find a mate and hide it from me. I walked toward the wardrobe behind the desk, and opened it. Right there… tucked in between a set of Ash’s coats was a long, white tunic.Omega-sized. Small and soft. Not only t

DARIUS Ash made a sound… barely a breath, but I heard it. The nervous huff of a man who didn’t like where this was going. I didn’t even turn my head.But my smile dropped. “Say it again,” I murmured, eying him carefully. “Go ahead. Try to speak, Ash.”He stood still.I flexed my claws. “Would you like me to end her life now?” I asked like we were talking about the weather.Horror clouded Ash’s gaze. Yes! Now, the horror was evident. “Hm?” I turned slightly to look at him. “Would you like that, brother? I’ll do it. Right here. I’ll make it quick if you beg.”I grinned coldly. “She means nothing to me.”Ash stepped back, silent. As he should. I turned back to Lilia, and just like that, the smile was back on my face like the interrogation had never happened.But none of his reactions satisfied me as much as I wanted. Why wasn't he on his knees, fucking begging me?! Blood-lust curled beneath my skin. “As I was saying…” I sighed, taking it as we were old friends catching up. “I want Aria

ARIAJust as Maren opened her mouth to speak, a loud thud echoed from the southern path, followed by the sound of heavy, staggering footsteps.We both turned toward the noise. My eyes widened at the sight. A man stumbled into the courtyard like he had just run through hell.“Hey!” Maren called out, but he was already falling.He collapsed right in front of me, dropping to his knees and gasping for breath. For a moment, I almost reached out to help him… Luna or not, as the desperation pouring off him sent a chill crawling up my spine.But I stopped myself. I needed to stay composed. That’s what Lucian would do. He never panicked. So instead, I crouched halfway down and asked gently, but firmly, “What is it? What happened?”The man lifted his dirt-smeared face. “She’s here,” he rasped.I blinked. “Are you one of the patrol officers?”He nodded quickly, still trying to breathe.“Okay, take a deep breath,” I said with a small smile, glancing at Maren. He must’ve imagined meeting me before
