Semua Bab The Alpha’s Captive Bride: Fated in chains : Bab 51 - Bab 60

Asher’s POVI leaned closer to Estelle, matching her energy. My hand trailed down her jaw slowly, and I felt her breath hitch with anticipation."The problem is," I said softly, "I don't belong to you. And you need to learn to understand boundaries."My voice turned harsh on the last word. I pushed her away firmly.Estelle stumbled back a step, her expression shifting from seductive to annoyed."What's so special about her anyway?" she snapped. "She's skinny and plain!""Stop." The warning in my voice was clear.But Estelle never knew when to quit. “… she's just a human. What could she possibly offer you that I can't? I'm powerful, connected, someone who can actually stand beside you—""I said stop." The growl that came from my chest made her eyes widen.I moved faster than she could react, my hand wrapping around her throat. "What we had in the past is in the past," I said, my voice deadly calm. "Do you understand me? I don't want to repeat myself."Estelle met my gaze, and to my f

Louisa's POVI tried to pull my arm free. "Actually, I really should…”"Come on, it'll be fun!" One of the girls tightened her grip. "We're all humans too. We just want to have lunch together."I hesitated. These were human students. Like me. Maybe they genuinely wanted to be friendly."We heard what Agnes and her crew did to you," another girl said, her voice sympathetic. "That was so unfair. Spreading those rumors, calling you those names. We felt terrible for you."Surprise washed over me. They knew about that? And they... they felt bad for me?"Really?" I asked."Of course! We humans need to stick together, right?" The blonde girl smiled warmly. "I'm Serena, by the way."The other girls introduced themselves as we walked. Maya and Priya. They all seemed nice. Like they genuinely wanted to get to know me.Maybe I had been wrong to be suspicious."I'm Louisa." I started.They all laughed."We know who you are," Serena said. "Everyone knows about Louisa Fernandez.”Right. Of course t

Mia stood up and stretched. "Well, since you're clearly not dying, I'm going to head out. I have a paper to work on.""Already?" I asked, disappointed."Some of us actually have to study," she teased. "Unlike certain people who seem to charm their way through everything."I rolled my eyes, knowing she just threw another jab at Kassie again. Luckily Kassie did not catch her words, or maybe she did and just chose to ignore it. Kassie pouted. "I was going to stay a while.""Actually," Isaac interrupted, looking uncomfortable. "I need to talk to Lou in private."Everyone went quiet. Mia and Kassie exchanged glances."About what?" Kassie asked suspiciously."Personal stuff," Isaac said firmly.The awkwardness was palpable but Mia grabbed her bag quickly."Right. Well. I'll see you later, Lou." She paused at the door. "And feel better.""Thanks, Mia."Kassie looked like she wanted to argue about staying, but finally sighed. "Fine. But I’ll come to you after, okay? I want to make sure you'r

Asher’s POVI knew I shouldn’t be doing this but I couldn’t help myself, not with the way my wolf was pushing and begging for me to cave into more. My entire body was vibrating with need and a feral kind of want was coursing through me. The moment I kissed her, she gasped against my lips, and I swallowed the sound, kissing her desperately like she was oxygen and I was drowning.She kissed me back. Her hands fisted in my shirt, pulling me closer. When her lips parted, letting me in deeper, I wasted no time in plunging my tongue into her mouth, tasting caramel and mint and something else that made my head spin. My hands found her waist, her hips, sliding up to cup her full breasts through the tight fabric of her uniform.She moaned into my mouth, and the sound nearly destroyed me.‘Mate,’ my wolf sang in triumph. ‘Ours. Finally touching our mate.’I peppered kisses down her jaw to her throat, tasting her skin. She tilted her head back, giving me access, her fingers tangling in my ha

Louisa’s POVThe two alphas stood facing each other in the hallway, the tension crackling between them like electricity.Draven's smirk hadn't faded and Asher's expression remained furious.I felt like I was watching two predators size each other up, and I was the prey caught between them."Alpha Draven!" Yelena's voice cut through the standoff. She appeared from around the corner with a bright smile. "What a pleasure to have you here! I trust your rooms are to your satisfaction?"Draven's attention shifted to her immediately, his smirk transforming into a charming smile. "Yelena. As beautiful as ever. The accommodations are perfect, thank you.""Wonderful! I was just about to have breakfast prepared for you and the King. Perhaps we could discuss the menu?" She shot me a look that I understood clearly.And I didn't need to be told twice.I slipped past them quickly, but I couldn't help glancing back.Asher was staring at me with those intense mismatched eyes. I looked away and kept wa
