All Chapters of Marked By My Captive Alpha: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Aria's POV I sat up despite his grip, heart pounding."Sister?" I repeated, louder this time. "You have a sister?"Damien didn't answer.His eyes stayed locked on the road ahead, his jaw working.The silence stretched, suffocating.Finally, he spoke."Sofia."His voice was hoarse. Raw in a way I'd never heard before.I blinked. "Sofia? You… you never mentioned—""I don't mention her," he cut in, his tone sharp. "Not to anyone. She's the only thing in this world I've kept safe."My chest tightened.The only thing.I stared at him, watching the way his fingers curled into fists on his thigh.This wasn't the Damien who'd dragged me to his office. Who'd tortured men in front of me. Who'd marked me and tried to break me me down piece by piece. Despite his cold expression I could feel his worry. Well, for once I could feel something from the bond. Was I begining to accept it? Nah. I don't think so."She's been away," Damien continued, his voice tight. "Living a normal life. The life a norm

I woke to the scent of leather and pine.My head throbbed. My body ached in places I didn't know could ache.Where—?I blinked against the dim light filtering through heavy curtains. Familiar surroundings slowly came into focus.The master bedroom. Pack house.Not the dungeon.I tried to sit up and immediately regretted it. Pain lanced through my ribs."Easy."My heart jumped.I turned my head.Damien sat in the chair beside the bed, elbows resting on his knees, watching me with an expression I couldn't read.How long had he been sitting there?He rose, crossing to the bed in two strides. The mattress dipped under his weight as he sat on the edge.His hand came up, fingers brushing my cheek with a gentleness that made my breath catch."Are you alright?"The question caught me off guard.Was I?I didn't know.My mind felt foggy, full of gaps and shadows. I remembered the car. The dungeon entrance. Feeling restless.And then—Nothing.Blank."What happened?" I whispered.His mouth curve

Damien's POV I tried. Goddess knows I tried to control myself. To stop before I took everything from her.But one taste wasn't enough.Would never be enough.My wolf snarled inside me, demanding more.Demanding everything."Damien—" Her voice was breathless, shaky.I didn't answer.Instead, I gripped her hips and flipped her over in one smooth motion.She gasped as I positioned myself beneath her, pulling her core down to my mouth."Ride my tongue, little bird."For a heartbeat, she hesitated.Then she moved.Slowly at first, tentative, her thighs trembling on either side of my head.I gripped her big ass, kneading the soft flesh as I devoured her.My tongue worked her clit while she ground against my face, her movements becoming bolder. More desperate."That's it," I growled against her wetness. She moaned, the sound going straight to my cock.I could feel her getting close again, her body tensing above me.I fucked her with my tongue, licking her walls, eating her insides.Her re

Damien's POV The report blurred in front of me. None of it stuck. My mind kept going back to Aria and what she was now going to face.I shifted in my chair, jaw tight, while Shawn droned on about a delayed weapons delivery from our contact in Detroit.Something felt wrong.My wolf paced restlessly beneath my skin.I glanced at the clock.Two hours since I'd left Aria upstairs.She'd been asleep when I slipped out, curled on her side with her hand tucked under her cheek.So why the hell did my chest feel like it was caving in?Shawn paused mid-sentence."Alpha?"I stood abruptly, cutting him off."We're done here."Jack frowned from across the table."But we haven't finished going over—""I said we're done."The edge in my voice shut them both up.I didn't wait for a response, just turned and walked out.The unease grew with every step.My wolf snarled, urging me to move faster.I took the stairs two at a time.Halfway up, I heard her scream so loud, my wolf growled.Aria.I moved wit

Damien's POVThe moment the word "freedom" left her lips, my jaw clenched.I didn't like that word.Not from her mouth.Not when it meant putting distance between us.But before I could respond, Aria's expression shifted.That defiant glare melted into something else entirely.Something that made my wolf sit up and take notice.She walked toward me.Slowly.Her hips swayed in a way that had my hands gripping the edge of my desk."What if I want to be punished?"Her voice was low, sultry.The kind of tone that sent blood rushing south.She leaned down, her breath warm against my ear."It's rather late. I'd prefer to do something else."Fuck.I grabbed her before I could think twice.My hand wrapped around her throat, pulling her down to me as I crashed my mouth against hers.She gasped, and I took advantage, deepening the kiss until she was trembling in my arms.When I pulled back, her lips were swollen, her breathing ragged."You want a punishment, little bird?""Yes.""You're going t
