All Chapters of THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA : Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Chapter 92: The Trap in the Study ROWAN’S POV Sunlight crept through the shutters and warmed the new sheets tangled around my legs. I woke slowly, expecting to feel Anya’s weight against my chest or her hair tickling my throat. Instead the bed stayed empty on her side. I opened my eyes and found her sitting in the chair by the window with her knees drawn up and her arms wrapped around them. She stared out at the courtyard below like the world had paused and she was the only thing still moving inside it.I sat up fast so fast the mattress dipped under me. “Anya?”She blinked and turned her head. For half a heartbeat she looked startled, like she hadn’t heard me come awake. Then she flashed a small, and tight smile, the kind that never reached her eyes.I swung my legs off the bed and crossed the room barefoot. When I reached her I rested one hand on her shoulder and squeezed gently. “You’re up early. What’s going on?”She leaned her cheek against my knuckles for a second before she

Chapter 94: Shadows on the RidgeANYA’S POV I paced the length of Rowan’s study with my arms crossed right across my chest and felt the heat climb up my neck every time I glanced at him. The evening light slanted through the narrow windows and painted long stripes of gold across the floorboards while he sat behind his desk with his hands folded and his expression calm in a way that made my teeth grind. “You told him,” I said and stopped right in front of the desk so he had to look up at me. “You told Lior the book is at my parents’ house even after I asked you to keep your mouth shut.”Rowan exhaled through his nose and leaned back in the chair. “I didn’t tell him the exact location. I only said it’s there. That’s all.”“That’s enough.” My voice rose sharper than I meant it to and I hated how it cracked at the end. “I trusted you to stay quiet. You promised, Rowan.”“I needed to test him.” He stood slowly and walked around the desk until he stood close enough that I could smell the

Chapter 96: Empty Bed and Burning Rage ROWAN’S POVPain exploded through my skull the moment I cracked my eyes open. My body felt as if it had been dragged across sharp rocks and left to bleed under the open sky. I groaned, trying to push myself up, but my arms buckled and I collapsed back against the pillows. The room spun slowly, wooden beams blurring overhead. The thick scent of herbs and healing salve hung heavy in the air. Sunlight sliced through the half-drawn curtains, stabbing straight into my eyes.I blinked hard, forcing my vision to clear. Memories slammed into me one after another.The ridge, the shadows. Damien’s gold eyes gleaming with triumph. His knee drove into my chest while I clawed at his arms. Anya’s scream cut through the night as her power flickered and died in her hands. Then, nothing, just blackness.Anya.Her name hit me like a fresh wound. I jerked upright, ignoring the scream of protest from my ribs. The bed beside me was empty and cold. No trace of her

Chapter 98: Broken Vows and Shattered VowsANYA’S POVI yanked hard against the silver chains that bound my wrists to the heavy bedpost until the metal bit deep into my skin. Pain flared sharp and hot, but I kept pulling with every ounce of strength left in my arms. The links rattled loudly in the quiet room yet refused to give even an inch. Sweat beaded on my forehead and trickled down my back as I twisted my body and braced my feet against the wooden frame for better leverage. Nothing worked. The restraints held firm with cold indifference.Frustration burned in my chest like acid. I closed my eyes and reached deep inside for the spark of magic that lived in my blood. The Moon Witch power stirred faintly, like a distant echo. I focused on the warmth and pushed it toward my hands with gritted teeth. Silver light flickered weakly around my fingers and danced across the chains for a brief moment. I poured more will into the effort and whispered the old words my mother once taught me un

Chapter 100: Destroyed Trust ROWAN’S POVI stormed into the chamber with my blood pounding so hard in my ears that I could barely hear anything else. The door hung half off its hinges behind me, wood cracked and splintered from the force of my entrance. My eyes locked onto the scene in front of me and everything inside me froze for one painful second before erupting into pure fire.Anya was on her knees on the cold stone floor, arms wrapped tightly around Damien. Her cheek rested against his hair while his hands gripped her waist like she was the only thing keeping him from falling apart. Tears glistened on his face. The bastard had actually been crying. But I didn’t care about his tears. All I could see was my mate holding the man who had kidnapped her, chained her, and planned to marry her against her will tonight.My wolf slammed against my ribs with savage force, snarling and clawing to get out. The rage that flooded my system burned hotter than anything I had felt before. How co
