The Alpha King Begged His Omega to Come Back のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

(Aria's POV)The lobby was quiet except for my faint breathing and Alexander’s steady hold. His hands were firm yet careful as they supported me, but all I could feel was the tension radiating from him."Let's go," I whispered softly, trying to muster strength through the chaos in my heart. My words barely reached him, but he nodded, his golden eyes filled with something I couldn’t quite understand. He shifted me slightly, his arm protectively tightening as he prepared to walk past Derek.The weight of Derek’s icy gaze froze my omega wolf in place. His ice-blue eyes, cold and unyielding, locked onto me like a predator that had spotted its prey. My wolf whimpered deep within me, instinctively lowering herself in submission.I couldn't meet his eyes. I bowed my head, clenching the jacket Alexander had draped around me as if it could shield me from Derek’s overwhelming alpha presence. But the silence shattered as Derek closed the distance in a single, calculated step. Without warning,

(Aria's POV)The ride in Derek's Bugatti felt unbearable, the air inside heavy with silence. Each breath I took clawed at my lungs, the sharp pain from the silver poisoning radiating through my chest. My heart was weaker now, hammering against my ribcage as though each beat could be its last.I slumped in the passenger seat, my hands gripping the edge of the leather seat for support. "Derek," I whispered, my voice feeble, almost swallowed by the rumble of the car engine. "You need to go back. There's no need for this."He didn't answer. His ice-blue eyes remained fixed on the road ahead, his jaw clenched as tightly as the steering wheel in his hands. The muscle in his jaw twitched, but other than that, he gave no indication he'd heard me.I tried again, summoning what little strength I had left. "Your marking ceremony..." My voice broke, the words trailing off into silence. Talking felt like dragging stones. "Natalie... they're waiting for you."This time, his hand tightened on th

(Aria's POV)The light was dim, soft but enough to sting. My eyelids fluttered open slowly, every movement feeling like an unspoken battle. The sharp, sterile scent of disinfectant filled my nose, clawing at my senses. I instantly knew where I was—the Silverstone Pack medical center.My body ached, not in the dull way of daily discomfort I’d grown used to but sharp, unbearable aches that left me feeling hollow. The fire of silver burns across my back flared with every shallow breath, and my chest felt constricted, suffocated.I shifted slightly, and the sharp pain intensified. Instinctively, I groaned under my breath, trying to stay as still as possible.Memories of what had led me here flickered in my mind like scattered pieces of a broken mirror. Lucas. The chains. Alexander. Derek.Derek.The thought forced my eyes to drift to the side, scanning the room. And there he was.Derek sat beside my bed. His tall figure cast a shadow over the neat expanse of the sterile room. He was

(Aria's POV)When Derek carried me inside the villa, I sank further into his grasp, trying not to protest. The cold air outside gave way to an unnatural warmth in the brightly lit room. Everything inside the villa was pristine. Clean. Organized. Empty of life.He didn’t say much. His grip stayed firm yet careful, as if holding a fragile doll. I wanted to object, to remind him I wasn’t completely helpless. “I can—”“No,” he cut me off sharply, his tone brooking no argument.I quieted but couldn’t stop myself from glancing around. I’d never been here before. The size of the room itself left me stunned—the bed seemed to stretch endlessly, far too soft for someone like me to belong on.Without a word, he crossed the room and gently placed me down on the bed. The plush mattress cradled me instantly, but my body remained tense. This was his private space, his private sanctuary, and I didn’t understand why he’d brought me here. He’d never brought me anywhere like this before."You'll st

(Aria's POV)The faint hum of the healing equipment filled the stillness of my room. My body ached with a dull, persistent throb, but it barely registered amid the storm of my thoughts.I hadn't meant to eavesdrop. Truly, I hadn't. But when voices drifted through the partially open door, the familiar tones of Derek and Dr. Marcus Reed, I found myself frozen."...she merely satisfies my wolf’s physical needs," Derek's cold voice sliced through the air, the words biting deeper than any wound Lucas had inflicted.I gripped the edge of my blanket tightly, my knuckles blanching as his words replayed in my mind. Satisfying his needs. That’s all I’d ever been to him. No matter the moments when his gentleness slipped through, no matter the small glimmers of care I desperately latched onto, the truth had always hovered just out of reach.Hearing it out loud left no room for doubt.My chest tightened painfully. I wanted to cry, scream, perhaps even laugh at my own foolishness. But tears wo
