All Chapters of Daddy Alpha, Take Me : Chapter 121 - Chapter 127

~NadiaThe drive to the council building felt faster than it should have.Like he was deliberately driving fast.Too quiet.Too heavy.I sat in the passenger seat, my hands folded tightly on my lap, fingers pressing into each other like I was trying to hold myself together from the inside. The hum of the engine filled the silence, steady… controlled… just like him.Lucian didn’t say anything.Not once.And somehow, that made it worse.I glanced at him… just once.His eyes were fixed on the road, sharp and unreadable. One hand rested on the steering wheel, the other relaxed beside him, his posture composed, like nothing about today carried weight.Like nothing had changed.But everything had.My chest tightened slightly, and I looked away, back to my hands.What were people going to say?No…What were they going to say if they suspected? I didn't even know his plan behind taking me to the council.The image from earlier wouldn’t leave my head… Aiden’s eyes, the way tears trailed down h

~Nadia He held my chin and before I could take a breath, his lips pressed against mine. For a second…Nothing.No thought. No breath. No world.Just impact.My body froze completely, every muscle locking as if I had been struck instead of kissed. My eyes remained open for that brief, disoriented moment, staring at nothing and everything all at once… at the blur of people, at the towering ceiling above us, at the reality I couldn’t quite catch up to.This was happening.In front of everyone.A sharp gasp cut through the hall.

He didn’t hesitate.He didn’t soften it.His hand was still firm against me, anchoring me in place as his lips remained on mine…steady, claiming, absolute.Not asking.My heart slammed violently against my ribs.I should have p

~NadiaThe pack had been unusually quiet over the past few days.No one spoke openly about what had happened in the council hall. No one dared to question it, not even in passing conversation where words could easily be dismissed. Lucian had made his position clear, and that alone was enough to keep most people in line. Still, silence didn’t mean acceptance…it only meant that whatever thoughts people had were now carefully hidden.I felt it everywhere.In the way conversations paused when I walked into a room. In the way eyes lingered a second too long before quickly looking away. Some avoided me completely, while others watched with something I couldn’t quite name…curiosity, maybe, or disbelief.I tried not to let it get to me.Tried to focus on the small tasks in front of me instead.That morning, I had been arranging items in one of the common rooms, keeping my hands busy so my mind wouldn’t wander too far. It should have been simple, something I had done countless times before, bu
