The Alpha Who Broke Me のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

KAIAThe Moonfang border looks exactly the same as the night I swore I'd never cross it again. The pines still stand like sentinels along the mountain road. The wind still carries the scent of wolves on patrol—earthy musk mixed with pine and something wild that makes my wolf stir restlessly beneath my skin. And my heart still clenches like it knows I'm about to make a mistake.I grip the steering wheel tighter as my beat-up Honda climbs the winding road toward town. Seven years since I fled this place with my tail between my legs and Vincent Lopez's cruel laughter echoing in my ears. I'd built a good life in Portland—small apartment, steady job at a marketing firm, friends who didn't care about pack politics or bloodlines.But life has a way of dragging you back to the places you'd rather forget.Mom's medical bills arrived three weeks ago like a death sentence. Stage three ovarian cancer. The treatments that might save her cost more than I make in two years, and our insurance barely

KAIAI arrive at Moonfang Construction fifteen minutes early, my black coffee steaming in my hands. It's just a job, I tell myself as I scan my keycard at the employee entrance. I can do this.The elevator ride to the fifteenth floor feels endless. When the doors finally open, I step into a bustling workspace—cubicles arranged in neat rows, floor-to-ceiling windows offering views of the forest, and the constant hum of productivity. My new desk sits in the corner, a modest workstation with a computer and a stack of files waiting for my attention.I'm settling into my chair when I feel it—that familiar prickle along my spine that means I'm being watched. I look up to find Vincent standing near the conference room, his dark suit immaculate, his expression unreadable. Our eyes meet for a brief moment before he turns away, dismissing me like I'm nothing more than office furniture.Fine. Two can play that game.I spend the morning familiarizing myself with the filing system and reviewing pr

KAIAThe Moonfang Construction building is eerily quiet at nine PM. Most of the staff cleared out hours ago, leaving just the security lights casting long shadows across the empty cubicles. I should have left too, but the quarterly reports won't finish themselves, and Vincent needs them for the board meeting first thing tomorrow morning.At least Lewis Thornfield hasn't shown up again since that bizarre encounter at the café last week. One less thing to worry about while I'm drowning in spreadsheets and trying to ignore how the past few days of professional tension with Vincent have left me feeling like a live wire.Every interaction we've had since I started has been charged with this underlying current of... something. The way he watches me during meetings. How his jaw ticks when other wolves dismiss my suggestions. The careful

KAIAI smooth down the midnight blue dress Talia insisted I borrow and take a deep breath before stepping out of her car. The Grand Lyceum looms ahead of us, its neoclassical columns strung with thousands of white lights that cast everything in a warm, magical glow. The full moon hangs directly overhead, massive and silver, making my wolf stir restlessly beneath my skin."You look incredible," Talia says, linking her arm through mine. She's wearing a stunning emerald green gown that brings out her dark eyes. "Thank you for coming with me. These kingdom galas are insufferable when you're flying solo."I adjust the delicate straps of the dress, feeling exposed in the elegant fabric. "I still can't believe you talked me into this." I'd almost canceled twice today, worried about leaving Mom

KAIAThe fluorescent lights in the Moonfang Construction break room buzz overhead as I sit at one of the small round tables, picking at my salad. It’s been days since the gala, and I still feel like every eye in the building is on me. Whispers follow me down hallways, conversations stop when I enter rooms, and I’ve caught more than one wolf tilting their head like they’re trying to catch my scent.The mate bond revelation has turned me into pack gossip, and I hate every second of it.I’m scrolling through my phone, trying to ignore the curious glances from other employees, when someone slides into the chair across from me. I look up, expecting to see Talia with her usual lunch invitation.Instead, I find myself starin
