All Chapters of The Alpha's Seventh Bride: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

Aria's POVI woke up to the sound of shouting, my head was pounding, and my mouth was dry. When I tried to move, a sharp pain shot through my arms. My wrists were tied with rope. The room smelled like sweat, blood, and fear.I blinked a few times before I could see clearly. The room was underground, dark, with stone walls and only a few weak lights hanging from the ceiling. Around me were other girls, some were older, some were younger, most of them were crying.One of the guards kicked a metal bucket near us. “Wake up, all of you!” he shouted.A woman came in with a clipboard, her face was cold, her voice firm. “Line them up, we start in an hour.”The girls obeyed quickly, I tried to stand but my legs trembled. The floor was cold and rough under my feet. My clothes that were left were dirty and torn from when they dragged me here. Now my body just hurts everywhere.The woman walked past me, her eyes scanning us like we were things, not people. “Make sure they are marked,” she said t

Damian's POVThe car engine hummed softly as the convoy moved down the quiet road that went through the outskirts of the city. I sat in the front seat, scrolling through the file Ethan had sent me. It contained everything about Aria.Age: Twenty-four.Bloodline: half werewolf, half human.Parents: Both deceased.Abilities: dormant.Her uncle had sold her to clear his debt.I studied the details though every word stirred something sharp inside me.

I could sense the faint hum of her heartbeat; it was slow but steady.“Keep your eyes on the road,” I said to the driver.

Damian's POVThe knock was hard on my office door when Ethan entered without waiting for me to respond.“Alpha, there is trouble.” He said, as he tried to catch his breath. “It is the girl, she is threatening herself with a pin.”I didn’t wait for any more explanation, I sprung to my feet and I just moved. “Where?” I asked as we were going.“Your quarters.”I left immediately, my steps were faster than I had expected and my anger had reached its peak. Aria. She was always testing her limits.But even though I was angry, there was something else that I was feeling something I hated admitting even to myself. The bond stirred underneath my skin, warning me that if anything happened to her, I would feel it too.When I entered the room, everyone went silent. The Maids and guards stood frozen in fear. Aria was standing at the center, a pin was pressed to her throat and her hands were shaking.She looked at me and our eyes met. “Don’t come closer!” She shouted, her voice broke and her whol
