Todos os capítulos de Alpha's Cage : Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 10

A biting cold pierced every pore, but it was not the cold of the air. It was the icy chill of the stone floor upon which Merin was forced to kneel. The musty scent of the dungeon mingled with the stench of the many Alphas and Omegas imprisoned around her. It was the smell of despair, the smell of fear, so thick and heavy in the air it was almost suffocating.The iron chains shackling her ankles chafed her skin raw and red with every movement. The leather collar, fastened so tightly it was constricting, was a brand marking her as no longer ‘human,’ but merely ‘merchandise’ awaiting auction.Merin closed her eyes, trying to banish the last image of her family from her mind: her stepfather’s feigned grief and false guilt, and her stepmother who turned her face away, not even meeting her eyes as her life was about to be cast into the abyss… all to settle a massive gambling debt they couldn't pay.‘It’s for the family, Merin… think of it as helping us.’That voice still echoed in her ears

A week passed like an eternity. Merin lived in Aries’s mansion like a wandering spirit. She was confined to the luxurious bedroom, which was now nothing more than an empty golden cage. During the day, she was allowed to walk in the garden, but the watchful eyes of bodyguards followed her every move. Her every step was confined to the territory drawn by Aries.Every night… the nightmare returned in the form of reality. Aries would come to her room, performing her task of using her body with the same violence and brutality as always. She never spoke, never showed any emotion other than the desire to possess and release. Merin learned not to resist, not to cry out, and to act like a lifeless doll so that the pain would pass as quickly as possible.Her body began to grow accustomed to the pain, but her mind grew increasingly numb. She became listless, her eyes empty, indifferent to everything. The gourmet food, the expensive clothes—everything lavished upon her was meaningless in her eyes

Merin awoke in her own bed, not in the cold basement. Her body was clean and dressed in a new silk nightgown. The memory of Lisena’s lesson was still fresh and vivid in her mind. The feeling of being completely controlled… it was frightening, but at the same time, it left a strange sense of peace in her once-shattered heart.…Several days later, Merin’s life fell into a new cycle. During the day, Lisena would sometimes visit her. The elegant female Alpha would bring books or sweets, speaking to her in a soft voice as if she were a cherished treasure.Those actions confused Merin. She didn't know whether to believe that feigned gentleness, but it was like a nectar that soothed her parched heart.At night, however, Aries was still the owner of her body. The cold Alpha continued to violate her with raw brutality and never showed mercy. But what had changed was the response of Merin’s own body…One night.Shortly after Lisena had left, Aries opened the door to her room at her usual time.

The dawn of a new day brought with it an invisible change. Merin awoke in bed, not on the cold floor. Her body had been cleaned and dressed in new clothes. Only the faint red marks on her back and ankles served as a testament to the brutal punishment of the night before.Aries was gone, leaving only her faint scent on the bedsheets.But what had truly changed was Merin’s heart. The icy wall she had built to protect herself began to show small cracks. Aries’s savage yet gentle touch that night had broken something within her. It made her begin to question… what was hidden beneath that cold, harsh exterior?While her relationship with Aries remained fraught with a complexity that was difficult to comprehend, her relationship with Lisena moved in the opposite direction.Lisena began to play an increasingly larger role in Merin’s daily life. She didn’t come to train or punish, but as a ‘friend.’ The elegant female Alpha would bring her breakfast in bed, read to her in the garden, or even

Merin’s body became an empty shell. Her mind shattered into tiny pieces that could never be put back together again. Lisena’s lesson under the candlelight had left an invisible wound, but one that was far deeper and more painful than Aries’s whip marks. It was the wound of betrayal. The fragile trust she had just begun to build had been crushed beyond repair.After that night, Lisena resumed her role as the kind angel. She treated Merin with a gentleness that was even more seamless than before, as if the cruel events in the suite had never happened.“Are you hurt anywhere, my love?” Lisena asked in a concerned voice the next morning, as she was applying expensive lotion to Merin’s skin. “I might have been a bit rough last night… but I just wanted you to know pleasure in all its forms.”Merin didn’t answer. She just sat still, letting the female Alpha stroke her body. Her eyes stared past her reflection in the mirror into the emptiness behind. She didn’t believe… she didn’t believe any
