Todos os capítulos de Alpha Salvatore: Capítulo 21 - Capítulo 30

Dominic:The morning stretched soft and slow, filled with the kind of quiet I hadn’t felt in years.It held a sense of peace that even my wolf reacted to despite me, despite everything. And despite all that I knew to be my reality.Aria had already showered, her hair still damp, a faint scent of soap and rain clinging to her. She wore one of the simpler dresses from the wardrobe, the fabric brushing her knees when she moved.I hadn’t told her she could leave. I didn’t have to. She’d already figured it out. She wasn’t going to leave anytime soon. I wanted her to stay here for a while longer.“You are one strange man.” She said, making me chuckle.“Why is that? Because I do more than just simply work?” I said, watching as she looked through my library. A library that I had in my room.“Did you actually read all of these?”“Yes, I did.” I said, making her eyes widen.“And here I was, thinking that you weren’t intellectual.” She teased.“I come with surprised. You just have to allow yours

Aria:By the time Dominic left the room, I already knew I wouldn’t stay.I was no fool. I wasn’t going to allow myself to be set as the center of attention by being in his room when he wasn’t there. And I sure as hell did not want to put myself in a mess that I knew I wouldn’t be able to handle if something was to happen.The moment the door closed behind him, I stood. The air still smelled like him, cedar, smoke, and something that made my chest ache. It clung to my skin like a mark I didn’t ask for.The corridors outside the Alpha’s wing were hushed but not empty. Servants moved like shadows, glancing up and then away when they saw me. The whispers followed, low and quick, too soft to catch but sharp enough to cut.And I knew better than anyone else what it meant when servants gossiped or spoke.By the time I reached the lower hall, Brenna was already waiting.“There you are.” Her tone carried something between disapproval and satisfaction. “You’ve caused quite a stir. Everyone arou

Aria:Brenna walked ahead of me, her steps brisk and full of pride, as though I were some prized trophy she was presenting. The maids parted when we passed, heads bowing, eyes following in open curiosity.“The Alpha called for you himself,” Brenna said, satisfaction lacing her voice. “You’ve caused quite a commotion, you know. Every servant in this house knows you were summoned twice in less than a day. That’s never happened before.”“And they are going to try and learn from you. You know, sometimes they know what it is to learn from the best. And they know what is best for them unlike you.” She said, making me fight back rolling my eyes. “You should be grateful. You are going to be his favorite. A first in a very long time. You know, the Luna has been the one holding that position as his chosen mate. But it seems that things might be shifting to your favor.”I said nothing.She glanced at me sidelong, her smirk faint but certain. “Try not to ruin my hard work by glaring when you see

Dominic:The light that crept into the room was soft and gray, the kind that came just before dawn.For a few seconds, I didn’t move. My head was still heavy with sleep, the unfamiliar warmth beside me anchoring me to the bed. A feeling that that I don’t remember ever having before.A peace that I knew was never there…Then I turned, and that was when I froze…Aria was there.Curled on her side, her face turned toward me, one hand resting just inches from my chest. Her hair had spilled over the pillow in dark waves, strands rising and falling with each slow breath.For the first time in longer than I could remember, the sight of someone sleeping didn’t feel like a vulnerability to exploit, it felt like something fragile I shouldn’t disturb. It even felt like something that I wanted to cherish.Without thinking, I reached out. A strand of hair had fallen across her cheek, and I brushed it back gently, my fingers barely grazing her skin.She didn’t stir.My hand lingered for a heartbeat

Dominic:Leon was waiting near the gates, the air between us thick with the kind of tension that only two Alphas could create. The guards stood far enough not to interfere but close enough to act if things went wrong.And judging by the fact that he came all the way here, I knew and believed that something bad would have happened. And that wasn’t something that I wanted to risk.He was still watching the road where Aria had disappeared moments ago, his jaw tight, his shoulders squared.I stopped a few feet away. “You could have done this days ago,” I said quietly. “Before she was sold. Before any of this happened. You could have put her first, rather than use her for your benefit.”His head snapped toward me, eyes flashing gold. “You think I didn’t try? My pack was starving, my land burned. You think I wanted to sell my daughter like some bargaining chip? Do you really believe that anyone would want to do this, Alpha? To his own child?”“Want has nothing to do with it,” I said evenly.
