All Chapters of Captured by the Alpha's Love: Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

Zane’s POV“Is it OK for Mabel to drink that much?”I turned my head when Tyler spoke. His question pulled me out of the haze of watching her.Mabel was at the bar with Vivian and Navy, their heads close, laughing into tall glasses with fruit on the rims. Every time she laughed, I felt it in my chest. She was relaxed, glowing, and I didn’t want to steal that from her by hovering too close. She deserved to just be with her friends.Still, my eyes kept drifting back to her. I couldn’t help it.Tyler’s brow was furrowed. “That’s her third round.”It took me a second to remember. The last time she came here, she drank too much. Some guy thought it was an invitation. I broke his jaw. The whole club still remembered.“If it gets out of hand, I’ll handle it,” I said.“That’s what I’m worried about,” Tyler muttered. His eyes

Mabel’s POV“What did we miss?” Vivian’s voice came from behind me. She was watching the club’s bouncers drag Dane toward the exit. The guy looked like a rag doll.Navy stopped beside her, scanning the scene.“Why did you leave Mabel alone?” Zane’s tone was sharp enough to cut.Vivian frowned. “She’s a grown woman. She didn’t want to come to the restroom.”“Next time, don’t leave her by herself.” Zane turned to me, his expression tight.I raised my glass, trying to act casual, though the room had started to tilt a little. “Relax. It wasn’t a big deal. You’re here, right? My personal bodyguard.”His jaw eased. He couldn’t stay mad when I smiled at him like that, and we both knew it.Navy leaned against the counter. “So, are we still drinking or has couple-time officially started?”Her teasing earned her an eye roll from Zane, but before he could reply, Adrian and Tyler showed up.“One drink together, then we scatter,” Adrian said, settling beside us. “Sound fair?”Everyone nodded.Adri

Mabel's POV"You never should have touched Zane," I said.Heat rolled under my skin. I did not mean to sound calm, but my voice hit low and flat. Nellie froze. Her laugh died. The room smelled like perfume and hand soap. Fluorescent lights made everyone pale. I could feel the wolf under my ribs, like a living thing waking. I let it move without thinking. I did not fight it.Nellie's mouth worked. "I—" she started. She looked taller in heels. Up close she looked small. My anger made the room shrink around her. My heart beat steady. The wolf answered. A pressure filled the air. It spread from my chest out into my shoulders. I let the pressure lean forward."Who do you think you are," I said. My words were soft, the kind that cut worse because they did not shout. "You think you can use him and pretend nothing happened?"She tried to lift her head. Her knees shook. "Please," she whispered. "I didn't mean—"Her voice broke. She tried to stand straight and her legs folded. I watched her sin

Zane’s POV"Mabel, stop!"I kicked a man off my leg, his body hitting the ground with a dull thud. He didn’t move again. My pulse was racing, chest tight. I spun toward Mabel, but my stomach dropped. She was running straight into one of the attackers.I knew I wouldn’t reach her in time.The guy’s hands were stretched out, ready to grab her. His focus was sharp, his stance low, like he’d done this before. Mabel, drunk and fearless, charged forward anyway.“Damn it, kitten,” I muttered under my breath and moved to sprint, but it was too late.At the last second, she twisted aside. Her fist shot up and hit the man square in the throat. The sound was sickening. He froze, eyes wide, clutching his neck as he dropped to his knees.Mabel stood there with her hands on her hips, a crooked smile on her face. “Ha! Did you see that?”I stopped in front of her, still catching my breath. “Yeah, I saw it.”She was glowing. Her eyes were bright, cheeks flushed, hair messy from the fight. I couldn’t e

Mabel’s POV"Do you want to try something new?" Zane asked.My throat went dry. I nodded before I could think, my heart pounding so loud it filled my ears.Zane grinned, then jumped off the bed and disappeared into the closet.I sat frozen, trying not to stare after him. Too late. The sight of his bare back, that sculpted V shape, and the flex of his legs made it impossible to look away. My breath caught when he moved. He didn’t walk. He prowled.By the time he came back out, he was completely naked.I blinked once, twice. My jaw almost dropped. His body looked carved from heat and light, the kind of beauty that made my stomach twist. Muscles rippled under his skin when he moved, and I had no idea where to rest my eyes.His smirk told me he noticed."Like what you see?" His voice was low and teasing.I swallowed hard. "Maybe."He chuckled and climbed onto the bed beside me. The mattress
