All Chapters of Alpha Salvatore: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Dominic:I looked down at the small woman that I now called my own as she lay in my arms. Curled slightly on her side, tucked beneath my blanket, her breathing slow and even now, nothing like the weak, shaking breaths from earlier.My Aria.I hadn’t slept again.I couldn’t.I just kept my eyes on her, fearing that she would need me again.Something had changed.Not loudly. Not violently. But unmistakably.Her scent was different.Subtle, so subtle that unless one focused on it, they wouldn’t notice it. But my wolf felt it instantly. The sharp edge of her heat had dulled, fading into something warmer, deeper. Protective instincts coiled tight inside my chest, fierce and sudden, as if my wolf had stepped closer to hers without conscious command. It was as if he was now bending the knee to her, wanting to keep her safe of all harm, wanting to cradle her in ways that only nature could explain.She was exhausted. Drained in a way that had nothing to do with the long night or the shift. I h

Aria:The gifts came before the whispers.“Gather around, girls, you have presents from the Alpha.” Brenna said, walking with a proud smile on her face. She looked at me, and I crossed my arms over my chest, shaking my head as the smile refused to leave my face.Gold. Silks. Jewelry laid out in careful rows, delivered to every girl in the consort hall.“What are all these for?”“These are beautiful. And the Alpha should be very happy with us to be sending presents.” Another girl commented.“These presents are because the Alpha has news to share,” Brenna said, looking at me with a smile on her face. A rare one that reached her eyes. “Aria is with child. She is going to give the Alpha his first heir.”I felt it in the way eyes lingered on me longer than usual as gasps filled the air around us. “Really?”I put my hand on my stomach, smiling as I looked at Lysa, knowing that she would be the happiest with this news. After the whipping she got from Katherine, I didn’t think that she would

Dominic:The council chamber was already full when I entered.Old stone. Heavy air. Too many eyes measuring every step I took.They didn’t waste time.“The pack doctor has confirmed it,” one of the elders said. “The girl, your consort, is with child. Finally, an heir is to be born to the pack, to your line.”The girl.I didn’t correct them. Not yet.Another voice followed, sharper. “This complicates matters. Especially given Luna Katherine’s… history.”A murmur passed through the chamber.“Infertility,” someone said outright. “Or at least the strong possibility of it. And the fact that the rumors surrounding her were true… that she had used the years of her power and reign to stop the ability of others from being able to give you your heir. To say the least, you were proven to be the one without the issue. Measures will be taken to protect your heir and the mother.”My jaw tightened.They spoke of her like she was a ledger entry. A failed investment. And the way they’re speaking of Ar

Dominic:She was relaxed in my arms.Truly relaxed.Not guarded. Not tense. Not watching every shadow for a threat that might come from behind. Aria leaned back against my chest as if she belonged there, as if her body had already accepted what her mind was still learning.“You know, I have never truly seen you as relaxed as you are.” I said, my voice softening as I looked down at her.“Don’t jinx it. My hormones are shifting. One minute I am purely relaxed, and the next, I am the demoness in disguise.” She teased, making me chuckle.“Or somehow, someone ends up being on my lap, proving to me that I belong inside her, paying our little one a visit.” I teased, making her eyes widen.“You are disgusting.”“You can’t say it’s not true.” She laughed and shook her head before leaning against me.I wrapped my arms around her more firmly, resting my chin lightly atop her head. The balcony was quiet, the evening settling over the estate in soft gold and blue hues. The pack below moved like di

Aria:The smell bothered me the moment the tray was set down.Olive oil, too strong, too heavy, too disturbing. It clung to the air in a way that made my stomach tighten unpleasantly. I turned my face slightly, breathing through my nose, trying to ignore it.“I don’t think I’m hungry,” I said. “I think I need some air.”Dominic looked at me immediately. “What’s wrong? We are in the balcony, I don’t think that we can get more air than that, baby.”“The smell,” I admitted. “It’s probably the pregnancy. It’s irritating, makes me feel like I’m going to vomit. I just can’t seem to stand it. I’m sorry.”Instead of questioning me, he smiled softly and wrapped his arms around me, pulling me against his chest. The warmth of him grounded me, easing the discomfort enough for me to relax. I leaned into his touch, allowing myself to breathe in just a little more normally.I sighed into his embrace. “At least you should eat. It was a long day for you, and you had a lot to take care of. You can’t st
