Semua Bab Alpha's Tension: Bab 51 - Bab 60

DaliahHis devilish eyes flick to my panicked ones as his fingers trail the inside of my thigh under the table. I should pull my leg away from his reach, but instead, I let his touch send shock waves through me. Ben and Carter hold a conversation for a few minutes, gaining a few chuckles from each side of the table, but not from me.My eyes are trained on the plate in front of me as my shaking hands reach for the fork."Are you alright, Daliah?" Mrs. Lanzetta's voice startles me from my internal battle, and I can't help the slight jump that occurs, forcing a loud clank of my plate and fork to alert the room. Instantly, I clear my throat hoarsely while trying to collect the spilled rice with a chuckle. "Um, yes. Sorry, I was just-" I have always been a good liar, but with Ben's hand floating so close to the center of my legs with his mother sitting directly across from me, I can feel the heat rising to my cheeks. "Just worried about the trial, I assume?" Ben offers as a quick escape,

BenIt only took a few minutes to catch Daliah up on the rat situation, which I had apparently forgotten to mention before. I have been so engrossed with her, and god, she did not disappoint. Three times last night, and every time was something that made me want to fall to my knees in worship to her.Daliah breaking the clock this morning was quite humorous, though it did concern me about why she did it. You would physically have to try to break a clock like that one, yet she did it by accident? Not to mention, her eyes have yet to return to their normal brown state. It is odd to see an Italian woman with nearly white eyes, but she is undeniably attractive with them. Kyle's and my mother's gaze flicks to Daliah, who is sitting next to me on my side of the desk in my office, as they sit across from us. Her hands are tightly wringing each other in anxiety as they stare her down without words, and I have to clear my throat to get their attention back on me. I asked her to come with me,

Ben"Three days, Antonio," I say through a sigh, pulling the silver knife from its burrow in his thigh. He lets out a loud shout as the silver reacts with his skin. "Three motherfucking days, Antonio," I repeat before laying the blade across his cheek, watching his skin bubble under the contact, and his shouts increase as he begins to thrash against the chair that restrains him. "I would much rather be fucking your daughter right now," I say with a smug grin, pulling the knife away. Despite his discomfort, Antonio looks directly at me and spits towards my face. It misses, landing on the ground in front of me, but it's still infuriating."You disgusting rat! Just fucking tell me what you used the link for!" Now it is my turn to shout as he toys with my time. It has been three days since I left the dungeon, and I am starting to smell like it. Kyle tells me that Daliah has gone to the office every day, staying late every night to finish the work she needs for the trial, and it makes me

BenIt was easy to follow her scent to the dungeons. Her wolf smells different than any other in the building, and she has my scent on her as well. I had never seen a wolf half-transformed before. Occasionally, we can control our claws and teeth, but this was different. She is wild-looking with her hair strung in front of her face, her teeth protruding from her lips, and her claws placed defensively in front of her.She resembled more so a fairytale creature than a wolf. As my sight lands on her in the dark, her eyes seem to glow. I slowly reach for the light switch on the wall, not wanting to break eye contact with her or startle her. Daliah's growls come out in snarls as she looks between me and Antonio, who stands in his cell smiling at her. "Daliah, don't do this. I will take care of him. You would never forgive yourself," I tell her gently, pacing my steps towards her slowly. Her feet retreat in the opposite direction as she narrows her eyes at me. To her, I am threatening he

Ben She tossed and turned for hours. It took me nearly thirty minutes to get into the cell after she collapsed, and I was terrified the entire time. Not knowing why she had fainted or if she was going to be alright. I could hear her heartbeat, but it was so faint I wasn't sure if it would keep beating for much longer. Once I finally broke the gate door down, I wasted no time in scooping her into my arms. She was coated in blood, some hers and some Antonio's, but all of it sinking into her skin. The bite marks on her skin ooze with blood when I pick her up, leaking on the stone as I take her up the stairs. "Kyle, get to the dungeons. Antonio's dead," I say through our mind link. Just as I pass the kitchen with Daliah in my arms, continuing to drip blood through the hallways, he bursts out the door. Clearly, I had caught him in the middle of his dinner."Alpha, what happened? Is she alright?" He asks hurriedly, running to my side. I want to growl, to warn him away from my mate, but I
