All Chapters of An Alpha's Obsession : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

ALEXI wish I could say I knew what I was doing. I don't. I understand that we can't go back to normal and act like nothing that happened a couple days back existed, but for the love of God, it can't continue like this.I pass through the central corridor and feel the eyes that follow me. It's the same reaction as always. Some often, other harden and a few barely even bother before they continue whispering. I can't be the only one that's noticing we're not even on the brink of collapse anymore… we're dying!Drifting through the eastern stairwell, I hear two wolves arguing. “You can’t just reassign patrols like that—”“I can when half the rotation is compromised!”“Compromised by who? The ones who already left, or the ones still standing here?”“What's going on?” Their voices drop when the moment I speak. Before they can scurry away, my voice stops them in their tracks once more. “I asked a question.”One hesitates, eventually succumbing. “We're trying to order the shifts and rot

ALEXNo one was comfortable with Logan's return. What was once mutters and whispers in indignation and disapproval, was now a silent tension that wrapped around our necks.“This was your plan?” I mutter to Adrian as we head in the direction of the council chamber. He doesn't answer.And as we file through the crowd, he doesn't bother to explain or trade glances with anyone. In all honesty, it doesn't look like anyone is ready to trade glances with him either. In the middle of it all stands the culprit.I turn to glance back, watching as Logan soaks up all the attention, before we take the bend into the chambers.Liam’s already inside. Seated at the long stone table with his forearms braced against the surface and his head slightly bowed. He looks up when we enter, eyes flicking to Adrian first, then to me.No words. Just acknowledgment.This isn’t a meeting meant for comfort.Adrian moves to the head of the table but doesn’t sit. He stays standing, hands resting flat against the

ALEXWhen morning arrives, it's the first in days that's brought along a different kind of feel.No murmurs, no whispers, no gossips about what's being done and who's the next topic of discussion. As if everyone woke up knowing exactly what kind of presence now walks among us.I don’t linger let the memory linger enough to register. Whatever Logan did, or who he did it with, is none of my concern.At least, that’s what I tell myself.The common hall is already occupied when I arrive. Everyone's clustered in quiet groups, but no one is openly speaking about last night… though I feel it threaded through every glance and half-smirk.And then, I see him.Logan is seated at one of the long tables, one boot hooked casually around the leg of the bench, posture a bit too loose for someone that's meant to treading carefully across unstable waters.The woman from last night sits beside him while his arm drapes around her shoulders, fingers absentmindedly tracing against her skin.He’s smiling.

ALEXSurprisingly, I didn't see Liam after that. Throughout the pack house, I moved in annoyed anticipation, half-expect him to suddenly appear wherever I was, unapologetic and grinning like he owns the space.He didn't. The day just moved like normal. A bit too normal for my liking. By evening, it has all settled into an uneasy rhythm. Not calm, things could never go back to calm, but functional. For the firstt time in a long time patrols were realigned, arguments were barely whispered, and the clipped, measured sentences were barely heard anymore. Regardless, it wasn't hard to ignore it. Somehow, before I'd enter any room or pass through any hal, Logan's influence would already be there, even when he wasn't. Retiring for the day, I head towards the infirmary to check on Zane and Maya one more time, when the air around the hall shifts. That heavy, choking, familiar scent steadies on top of me, like pressure changing before a storm.I knew it'd be impossible to go the entire da

ALEXThe night he visited to confinement and got the better of Miles was the last time I was Alpha Benny.I wasn't sure what he was doing there or why he came down with Sage, but it became obvious that he was working with Adrian.I hadn't seen him since then, but seeing him any sooner couldn't have come at a better time.The brothers were about to kill themselves. More specifically, Adrian. As usual, the pack members gossip about it as the training grounds thin out. “Adrian. With me.” Benny says, titling the hands of suspense. Adrian doesn’t argue, doesn’t even glance back at Logan either. Just moves. Logan, on the other hand, can't stop laughing. Though now it's quietened to a silent chuckle, I wish I could smack the sense back into him. But it's not worth it. So I simply follow behind Adrian.***When we reach the chambers, no one sits. Benny barely even makes it in before glaring back at Adrian. “What?”“Really?” Benny answers. “Why is he here?”Of course. Even though they're
