Bound To The Alpha I Rejected のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

KAELAN'S POV"It's either you or no one, Seraphina."She finally looked up at me. Her eyes were glassy. Not crying, but close."You can't control that, Kaelan. The Moon Goddess doesn't ask for permission.""Then she'll have to answer to me."A small, sad smile tugged at her lips. "You can't fight the Moon Goddess.""Watch me."She shook her head and looked back down at her plate. The food was cold now. Neither of us had eaten more than a few bites."I'm scared," she whispered."I know.""What if it happens? What if you wake up one day and you're bonded to someone else? What happens to us? To the pup?"I reached across the table and took her hand. She didn't pull away."That won't happen.""You don't know that.""I know that I won't accept it. I know that no bond, no goddess, no force in this world will keep me from you. Not again."She blinked. "Again?"The word hung between us. I had said too much."Kaelan?""Eat your food," I said, letting go of her hand. "It's getting cold.""Don't

SERAPHINA'S POVThe hall was silent for a while before the Luna spoke."Normally, I would have told you that she has been killed. But I know you can feel that she's still alive, and that's why you're causing this much terror."She stepped forward, her hands clasped in front of her. She didn't even look at the bodies on the floor twice."You cannot take in that girl, Soren. No one ever opposes you. And if anyone does, I'm usually the one that rips their heads off their necks." Her voice hardened. "But this time, not only is the whole pack against you—I and your father are against you as well. She is an Elyxis Princess!"Soren tilted his head, his smirk never fading."But the Moon Goddess isn't against me, is she?" He paused, letting the question hang in the air. "So for the last time... where is my mate? I still have ten more soldiers that were sent to capture Aehrys and kill her." He shrugged. "I can add more to the count. I really don't mind."The Luna didn't move.Soren's eyes twitc

ISOLDE'S POVThe news spread through the palace like wildfire.The Luna had given birth. A son. A healthy male Alpha pup.I sat in my chambers, staring at the wall, my hands clenched in my lap.A son.That damn witch gave birth to a fucking son. An heir to the throne. If she couldn't miscarry her baby, she could have at least given birth to a girl.I hissed, running my hands through my hair.This was all Asher's fault. That slow maid confirmed she had delivered my letter, so why hadn't I gotten any reply? Why hadn't Asher and his forces stormed Stonecrest yet?I stood up and paced. My heels clicked against the marble floor. Every click felt like a countdown, a reminder of time slipping through my fingers.I thought about Seraphina. About the way Kaelan looked at her. Like she was the only person in the world. Like I didn't exist.I had been here first. I had played my part. I had done everything they asked. And what did I get? Nothing. A dead pup. A broken body. A title that meant not

KAELAN'S POVI released Asher and ran.I threw open the door to Seraphina's room without slowing down.The bed was empty.The sheets were rumpled. Still warm. Her scent lingered—lavender and honey—but it was already fading, mixing with the cold night air pouring through the open window.Nathan's bassinet was empty too.The blankets were tossed aside. A single stuffed wolf lay on the floor.I picked it up. It still smelled like him. Like baby powder and milk and that soft, sweet scent that only infants carry. I pressed it to my nose for just a second. Just one breath.Then I shoved it into my pocket.I spun around, my chest heaving. My hands were shaking. I couldn't breathe."WHERE ARE THEY?"Asher stood in the doorway, calm. Collected. His smile was gone now, replaced by something colder. Satisfaction."Alyssa," he said softly. "Seraphina. Nathan." He tilted his head. "You took one from me. I'm taking two from you."He let the words hang in the air like a death sentence."Fair trade,

SERAPHINA'S POVThe rope had been cutting into my wrists for what felt like hours. It was thick, knotted tight. It would take me quite a while to wriggle and break free. But I had to try. I had to escape. I had to save Nathan and be with my Alpha again.I didn't know what Asher was capable of. I doubted he wouldn't kill me when he got mad or felt like it. And since Isolde said Kaelan had been misled, he most likely wasn't going to find us. Even if he did, it might be too late. I couldn't just sit here and wait for him.I continued wriggling, trying to find my way around the knotted rope. But it was tied too tight. Still, I didn't stop. Couldn't stop. Every twist, every pull, every scream of pain from my raw skin was worth it if it meant getting free.Nathan was crying now. Not the soft whimper from before. A real cry. Hungry. Scared.Asher's words echoed in my head."Listen to your son cry for milk you can't give him."Rage burned through me. Hotter than the cold of this stone tomb. I
