All Chapters of Alpha Step Daddy : Four Mates, One heart: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

RAVENA roar echoed through the place and shook even the dust loose from the palace ceiling.The First Queen reacted instantly. Her shoulders tightened slightly and her fingers curled hard enough against the edge of the balcony railing that silver cracks spread beneath her hand.That was the first real thing she’d shown since I got here.Fear.“You know that sound,” I said carefully.She kept staring toward the city below us. “I know what’s attached to it.”Another impact rolled through the palace beneath our feet and somewhere outside, the dead began whispering louder again. The sound spread through the buried city like wind moving through dry leaves.“He crossed the lower gates.”“The wolf returns.”“He remembers her.”I frowned immediately. “What do they mean he remembers me?”The First Queen ignored the question completely and looked toward the city instead. I followed her gaze and my stomach tightened instantly.Blackridge wolves were pouring into the buried kingdom through the s

DOMINIC After what was a hellish hour of fighting, Raven collapsed and I caught her before she hit the floor. “Raven.” Her body went completely limp against mine and for one horrible second, my heart stopped because she wasn’t moving at all. Dust drifted through the throne room while the remains of the creature dissolved into black ash around us and still she didn’t wake up. “Raven.” My voice came out rougher this time. Nothing. Theo reached us first. “Is she breathing?” “Yes.” Barely. Her skin felt burning hot beneath my hands and the silver marks running beneath it flickered weakly now like dying light beneath water. Blood stained the side of her neck from where the power surge had torn through her earlier and when I touched her face carefully, she still didn’t react. Something sharp twisted through my chest instantly. “Dominic.” I looked up sharply. The First Queen was still standing near the destroyed throne but barely. Blood kept spilling slowly from the

RAVENI stayed sitting up because lying down felt like I might disappear into it again.The room wasn’t unfamiliar anymore, but it still didn’t feel like mine. The man from earlier was still standing near the door. He hadn’t moved, and he hadn’t spoken again since the last time. Just watching me like I was something he wasn’t sure had fully returned.He said his name was Dominic but that didn't ring any bells. So why? I tried to focus on him properly, but my thoughts kept slipping out of place. Every time I tried to hold something steady in my head, it softened and broke apart before I could shape it.“You said they’ve been waiting,” I said quietly.He didn’t answer immediately. My fingers tightened slightly against the edge of the blanket. The marks under my skin were still there. That should have felt like relief, but it didn’t. It felt like something inside me was dead.“What happened while I was asleep?” I asked.The man finally moved, stepping slightly closer but still not close

RAVENThe room stayed quiet after that. Nobody moved closer to me anymore and honestly, good. Every single thing around me already felt too close somehow. My skin felt like a million ants were fucking crawling on it. My thoughts felt worse. It was like my body remembered things my head couldn’t hold onto properly and the disconnect was starting to piss me off.“I need air,” I muttered.Theo immediately shook his head. “Absolutely not.”I stared at him. “Was that supposed to sound reasonable to me?”“You almost collapsed five seconds ago.”“And now I’m not collapsing. See? Progress.”Jax snorted softly under his breath while Dominic stayed exactly where he was near the door.Watching me again.God, that was starting to irritate me.“You keep staring at me like I’m going to explode,” I said finally.His expression didn’t change. “I’m making sure you’re okay.”“Well, stop it.”That came out sharper than I intended but nobody looked surprised by it.Which somehow annoyed me more. I turned

MAREKI noticed the cold before I understood what it meant.It started small, in a way my body didn’t recognize at first. A thin pressure under my skin, like the air itself could affect me but it wasn't fucking possible so I had to be imagining things. I stood outside the medical wing long after Raven’s anger had settled into silence behind closed doors, and I told myself it was just the aftermath of the Hollow collapsing.But it wasn’t.It was inside me.The wind brushed past my arms and I actually felt it for the first time in a very long time. It lingered too long, like my body didn’t know how to filter it out anymore.That was the first problem.The second was my breath.It caught slightly when I exhaled, like my lungs had suddenly become aware they were supposed to work. I stopped walking immediately.That had never happened before.I pressed a hand against the stone wall beside me, expecting the usual stability to settle through my palm. Instead, I felt texture. Imperfect stone.
