BOUND TO THE RUTHLESS ALPHA のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

Soraya's POV “I can’t put it on myself,” I admitted quietly. “It’s... got too many ties.”Darius’ eyes met mine. “Do you want me to get one of the attendants to help you?”I nodded, feeling heat creep back into my face. He pressed the little bell beside him, and within moments one of the attendants appeared.“Yes, sir?”“She needs help with the dress,” Darius said. “Help her into it.”“Of course,” the woman replied with a small smile.I followed her back behind the screen, and she helped me into the gown, tightening the ribbons until they fit snugly against my back. The fabric slid over my skin like water, hugging my waist and hips perfectly. When she was done, she stepped back, admiring her work.“It suits you,” she said softly.When I turned toward the mirror, I almost didn’t recognize the girl staring back at me.The dress shimmered softly under the lights, clinging to my body like it had been made just for me. The fabric hugged my hips and waist so perfectly that I could see eve

Soraya's POV The next thing I knew, I was in the car again with Darius beside me, driving us somewhere else. Apparently, the surprises weren’t over. He was spoiling me so much. This wasn’t just baby-girl treatment anymore, it was full-on princess treatment, and honestly, I didn’t know how to process it. In all, I was so glad he was back and well.I thought we were done after the boutique. He had already bought me so many dresses. Each one was gorgeous and extremely expensive, but Darius didn’t seem to care. He’d spent thousands of dollars like it was pocket change. And now, here I was, wearing the first dress I had tried on. Apparently it was his favourite.I turned to him, smoothing the fabric over my lap. “Where are we going this time?” I asked for what had to be the nth time.He didn’t even glance at me, just kept his eyes on the road with that little smirk on his lips.“You’ll see, my love,” he said softly. “Just relax.”I groaned and leaned my head against the seat, pretending t

Darius' POV~Earlier in Wesley City.“Valentine’s day is in a couple of days.” Sam said.I blinked, dragging my hands down my face. “Valentine’s day?” I repeated flatly.“Yeah,” he said with a smirk. “You know… the day for love and all that.”I exhaled slowly, leaning back in my chair. “Right. Love and all that.”“Maybe you should surprise her or something,” Sam suggested.I stayed quiet for a moment, thinking. “Maybe that would at least make her less upset with me?”Sam raised a brow. “Less upset? No, it should definitely make her more upset if you don’t do something nice,” he said chuckling. “You disappeared on her for a while, remember?”I groaned. “Yeah, I know. You don’t have to remind me.”He crossed his arms. “Then think of something nice.”I nodded slowly, a small smirk tugging at my lips. “Hmm… I’ll think of something nice. Really nice, actually.”“Good,” Sam said, standing up and heading toward the door. “Good luck with that, Alpha. Call me if you need anything.”As the door

Soraya's POVI rested my head against Darius’ chest, feeling the steady beat of his heart beneath my ear as he carried me through the mansion. It was already pretty late now, and the only sound that could be heard came from the kitchen, probably one of the maids moving about.I lifted my gaze to him, and a rush of gratitude filled me. I had the best day of my life. Hours ago, I had been worried sick concerning his whereabouts. And now… now I just felt so content and safe in his arms.He had been through so much. Losing control, not catching the Patriarch, feeling powerless… and he carried all of that on his own. I could imagine how he felt about everything, and I wanted him to know how much I appreciated him for everything he’d done, even when I hadn’t been able to help.I wrapped my hands gently around his neck, my fingers tracing the collar of his shirt. My eyes moved up to the ring shimmering on my finger, and a shy smile crept to my lips.I loved him. Not just because of the surpr

Soraya's POV Today of all days. Why today, when I had to wear a scarf? Why did the AC have to stop working today? Great. Just great. I just hoped I’d be able to survive it.I pulled a seat and sat down, rubbing my forehead. The lecture hall felt like an oven. Time passed, and as the lectures went by, it only got hotter. My scarf was starting to feel like a punishment, and I honestly just wished the day would end quickly.When classes were finally over for the morning, I sighed in relief. It was finally lunch break. I packed my bag and started heading toward the cafeteria, trying to ignore how sticky my neck felt under the scarf.I hadn’t seen Carl all day. I wondered if he’d even come to school.And just as I was thinking that, I bumped right into him.“Oh, I’m so sorry!” I said quickly as some containers and colorful decorations he was holding nearly fell to the ground.“All good, all good,” he said with a small laugh, steadying everything before looking at me. “Are you okay?”“I’m
