All Chapters of Kidnapped by the Alpha: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Marius’s eyes were darker, desperate for answers, and I didn’t quite understand what he wanted me to say.He had asked me why I didn’t think about killing him and why I wasn’t afraid of him.How could I answer that? But when I paused for a moment to think about it, I realized he was right.I wasn’t afraid of him, even knowing his past, even knowing what he had done, because maybe deep down, I couldn’t see the killer everyone said he was. How could he be that bloodthirsty wolf from a pack of wolves that had committed so many horrific crimes? How could he be?His eyes weren’t those of a male craving blood—that was what my heart was telling me.“If you wanted to hurt me, you would have done it already…”“That’s not what I asked. I asked why you don’t think about killing me,” he interrupted, and I could see how important that was to him.“You don’t know what I think, Marius.”Marius stepped closer, his hands abruptly holding my face, his face just inches from mine, while my gaze was drawn

I was in pieces.I wasn’t myself anymore, trembling uncontrollably in Marius’ arms, unable to even hold back my tears, which insisted on streaming down.Everything I had endured over the years, all the mistreatment, every beating from Calister, should have made me stronger.It should have prepared me for what happened in the clearing, but it didn’t, because here I was, shaking and crying in the arms of the male everyone called a killer.Marius pulled me closer into his embrace as I curled up, trying to forget the agonizing sensations from the nightmare, trying to forget the heavy body pressing against mine, the hands on my body…I didn’t know how long he held me while I cried until I sobbed, until finally, my tears dried and my crying became quiet, until the room was once again plunged into the silence of the night.Slowly, I wiped my face with the back of my hands and pulled away from the male, careful not to look into his eyes.“Are you okay now?” he asked, and I heard in his tone w

POV MARIUSI walked to the door and closed it, noticing that I was dripping water all over the floor. I quickly took off my shorts and changed.Jane’s angry expression, her scream of pain, still echoed in my mind.The fact that she had said normal people would worry, admitting that she had been concerned about me, made me want to apologize for her finger but I didn’t have the courage to go after her. I knew that if I tried, she would push me away, even though I was twice her size and weight.I sighed and opened the window. The rain had eased considerably, but I imagined her alone in the cabin during the days I had been gone. With the storm raging outside and no clue where I was. I wondered if my presence bothered her, or if it made no difference at all, since Jane always made it clear that I had kidnapped her.I might not have much experience with people, but I knew rejection very well.I went to the bed and lay down, staring at the ceiling, my mind drifting back three days to when Ja

POV MARIUS“Did you mark her?” The question sounded loud and slightly irritated.I turned my gaze to Jane, who wore an anxious expression.“Of course not. Alissa is like a sister to me,” I said. I knew my answer confused her even more, and I sighed, not wanting her to think I was some kind of freak.“Black wolves always hear when someone cries, or feels sadness, or anger. Especially if those feelings are directed at me. I’m highly connected to people’s negative emotions, and when they are strong enough, I can read their thoughts.”Jane’s heart raced when I said that, and I looked at her features—her lips, her rebellious hair—and leaned in, brushing a strand from her eyes.“Of course, that only works when we’re close, but with Alissa, it’s different, I think. Maybe because she’s a white she-wolf, and for that reason, her feelings are stronger.”I saw her eyes widen when I mentioned that I could read thoughts, and I quickly added:“I don’t read your thoughts. Not anymore.”Jane swallowe

Kilian watched me with a proud, arrogant expression before taking another swig of his drink and snarling:“Do you think I’m blind? I can see the tracker’s mark on your neck!”At his roar, I shrank back into the couch, my heart leaping as my eyes flicked toward the door. A fragile hope bloomed inside me—that at any moment, Marius would walk through it and I’d feel safe again.But the minutes stretched on, and he didn’t return. I had to face reality.If Kilian wanted to kill me, he would. There was nothing I could do. He was twice my size, and worse—he was a black wolf.Kilian’s fury crackled in the air. I struggled to understand the reason for it, still trying to process that he was Marius’s father—and that, because of me, Marius had killed the Delister Alpha’s son.He paced the room, running a hand through his neatly cut hair, while I stayed frozen on the couch, unable to think of anything to say or do. All I wanted was for him to leave.“Have you received your wolf yet? Are you eight
