บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha Of My Heart: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

AsherInstead, I turn slowly, with a sharp gaze as I approach the figure standing a little too comfortably in my territory. She straightens up slightly but bows her head in respect. Alpha Asher, good to see you again.“What’s the point of seeing you now?” I growl with a low voice, but you can tell that it's laced with restrained fury; my alpha aura seeps into the air, but Selena stands unfazed. Something is unsettling about her, something that makes my wolf restless. I’ve run background checks on her before she’s from a powerful alpha bloodline, but there’s no mention of her pack. That omission alone makes her a mystery I haven’t fully unraveled. “We don’t have time to waste if you want to save your mate,” she replies with a teasing, calm voice that irks me even more.My breath catches for a moment. She knows. The way she said it so confidently sends a ripple of surprise through me. But I refuse to let it show. “Oh, so you know,” I say, my tone cold, masking my unease. Selena

Alethea (Zoe)My body feels heavy like I’m sinking deeper into the bed. But something inside me starts to fight. I can feel it—this strange warmth spreading through my veins, igniting a fire I didn’t even know was there. My chest tightens, and suddenly, my lungs burn as though they’re desperate for air. Everything hurts. I try to cry out, but my voice is trapped somewhere in my throat. My fingers twitch, my body jerking involuntarily. “She’s reacting,” Someone says, but it sounds far away like she’s speaking through a fog. “Her body is fighting back.” I’m drowning in pain and heat mixed with something… else. It’s like I can feel him, He’s close. So close. The pain coursing through my body right now feels unbearable, but somehow, it doesn’t compare to the agony I endured when I was in labor with Declan. My Declan. Just the thought of him makes my heart ache. I miss him so much—his bright green eyes constantly remind me of that arrogant, infuriating man who is his father.

AsherWhat is she thinking, lying there naked in my bed? My body reacts instantly, a twitch in my pants, but I’m not ready to give in to the temptation.Instead, I head down to the wine cellar and pour myself a glass of whiskey. I put it down in one swift gulp, the burn sears my throat and chest, but I don't care. It’s a welcome distraction from the storm inside me.The hate in Alethea’s eyes bruises me deeper than I ever imagined. And who the hell is Declan? She moved on so damn fast. It only confirms she wasn’t lying when she mentioned missing her boyfriend during breakfast.I wish I could find this so-called boyfriend, grab him by the collar, and tell him to stay the hell away from my mate. The thought alone ignites a fury I struggle to control.I grit my teeth and pour myself another drink, the whiskey barely dulls the edge. My eyes drift back to Maya, still lying naked in my bed. She wants something I can’t give her.Maya and I go way back. She was my first love, the one who made

Alethea (Zoe)Life has a cruel sense of humor sometimes. I feel trapped, unable to get through each day without Alpha Asher's emotions invading my mind. It’s infuriating, more so because he’s an Alpha. His presence looms over me like a shadow I can’t escape, no matter how hard I try.What was I thinking, rushing to warn Asher during battle? The thought alone is enough to make me cringe. Yet, I know I need to warn him about Xavier’s plans. Still, the last thing I want is to be near him, to feel the pull of the mate bond tugging at me.Asher’s misunderstanding about Declan is almost laughable. The way his face contorted with barely contained-rage when I mentioned Declan's name still makes me smile. He thinks Declan is my boyfriend. If only he knew the truth, he wouldn’t be so quick to jump to conclusions.These past weeks, I’ve managed to keep my distance from Asher, and for that, I’m grateful. Selena had to return to Northville, and during her absence, Amelia stepped in to care for

Alethea (Zoe)I feel an electric spark course through me like a bolt of lightning as Asher yanks me away from Maya. It’s overwhelming, it makes my body tremble and my mind spin. The voice in my head whispers, ‘Mate,’ fuck this bond that ties me to him, this connection that refuses to break, no matter how much I want it to.I’m trapped in his gaze, those deep green eyes that remind me so much of my son, Declan. They hold a world of emotions I can’t put into words. It’s both comforting and terrifying.My heart pounds in my chest, not from desire but from fear of losing everything I hold dear. I can’t bear the thought of being locked away, thrown into the dungeon where I might rot and never see my son or Selena again. That thought alone brings tears to my eyes, streaming down my face before I even realize it.His hand rises to my face, his fingers brushing against my cheek, trying to wipe away the tears. I pull myself away.“Don’t please,” I say with a shaky voice grabbing his hand mi
