Semua Bab The Cursed Alpha's Slave : Bab 11 - Bab 20

"You want me to do what?" Doris demanded, folding her arms across her chest.Leonidas repeated himself. "I want you to train Kylie. She wants to grow stronger. Become a beacon for the pack."Doris held his gaze for a long moment, her eyes cold. "And if I say no?""I don't think you have that luxury," Leonidas replied evenly. "Kylie is not just my mate. She's also your Luna. And you owe her your obedience. You owe me that much."Doris looked away. She hated that he was right. Ever since she remembered, she owed a debt to Leonidas. Even if she didn't want to, she couldn't refuse his orders. "Do you honestly think you're doing the right thing, making her your Luna?" She asked quietly. "She's going to die anyway. What's the point?""I have great faith in Kylie," Leonidas said, turning to the inbuilt bar in his study. "She's different from my other mates. I can feel it. She might be the key to breaking my curse."Doris stepped closer, her frustration bleeding through. “You’re letting hop

I didn't know Leonidas was watching all this time. He had appeared out of nowhere and stopped Doris. If he hadn't blocked her punch, it would've killed me. Doris jumped back, stunned to see him. "Alpha. I didn't know you were around."Leonidas red eyes glared at her. "You were going hard on Kylie. You wanted to kill her, weren't you?" Doris body stiffened, she lowered her head in a bow. "I might've lost my temper, Alpha. I'm sorry.""Sorry?" Leonidas snapped. "You lost your temper on your own Luna. On my mate. If I hadn't stepped in, you would've struck her dead. I instructed you to train her, not kill her."The room fell silent. No one dared breathe.Doris clenched her fists at her sides. "Forgive me, alpha."“I trusted you,” Leonidas continued, his words heavy with disappointment. “You are the second strongest in this pack. Your strength exists to protect, not to indulge your resentment. If you cannot separate your personal feelings from your duty, then you have no place training

I stared at Edgar, stunned. "You can help me break his curse?"Edgar nodded slowly. "You see, I met Leonidas when he was still a teenager. I've served him ever since, not just as a butler, but as a father who watches over him."He paused, releasing a quiet breath. "After his first mate died, I immediately took a deep interest in his curse. I researched old texts, forgotten rituals, anything that might offer a solution. I’ve found nothing that worked."“I believe you are different,” he said. “I believe you are the key to breaking it. And I’m ready to help you, if you’ll let me. What do you say, Luna?”I could only stare at him without saying anything. I was alone in this pack, surrounded by wolves who doubted me. An ally like Edgar could change everything."I accept," I said at last. "I’d like to work with you, Edgar."Edgar bowed slightly. "Excellent, Luna. Let us meet some other time to share our knowledge about Leonidas' curse."He escorted me back toward the main house, then quietl

The next morning came faster than I expected.Leonidas was already waiting when I stepped outside, dressed sharply in a dark suit that made him look every bit the Alpha he was. His black Mercedes-Benz idled quietly in the driveway, the driver holding the door open for us.We both slid into the back seat but instinctively left space between us.Not because we didn’t want to be close. Because we mustn't touch each other, inorder not to trigger his curse. The car pulled away smoothly, rolling through the iron gates of the villa. I watched the pack house disappear behind us, my nerves humming beneath my skin. This was my first time leaving the grounds since arriving, and the world beyond suddenly felt larger than I imagined.As we merged onto the road, I noticed something odd.Three black cars followed closely behind us. One directly behind, two flanking farther back, moving in perfect formation.I frowned, glancing from the window to Leonidas. “Are those cars with us?”“Yes,” he repli

The silence in the office was broken by the soft buzz of Leonidas’s phone on the desk. He glanced at it, then picked it up.“Sir, you have a call,” his secretary’s voice came through. “It’s from the Republic. Shall I put it through?”Leonidas’s jaw tightened, but he gave a small nod. “Yes. Connect it.”The line clicked, and then a deep, authoritative voice spoke.“Hello?” Leonidas answered “This is Alpha Leonidas. What can I do for you?"I watched him closely as he listened. His expression remained calm at first, then slowly, his hand tightened around the phone.“I’m not interested,” he said firmly after a pause. "I thought I made that clear at the New moon festival."He listened again, and this time, his eyes widened slightly, a shadow of surprise flashing across his face. “Very well. I’ll be on my way.”He set the phone down gently and turned to me, his gaze locking onto mine.“Kylie,” he said quietly, “that was from the Council of Wolves.”I frowned, stepping a little closer. “Th
