All Chapters of Protected by the Dark Alpha: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Eloise“What the hell just happened?” Nalia asked incredulously before grabbing her brother by the arm and dragging him out of the room.Once they were gone, everyone in the room burst out laughing.At that moment, I didn't understand anything, so I knew very well that I was missing something.“What's so funny?” I asked, confused.“Let's just say that Joe and Nalia have a slightly dysfunctional sibling relationship, but that's what makes them much closer than your average siblings,” Elijah said, and Kael nodded, looking at Kaia with annoyance as she laughed. “They both swore they wouldn't get mates and even made a vow about it. I think Nalia has completely panicked.”“Why would she panic completely?” I asked, still not understanding.“Joe swore to her that if she ever found a mate, she would meet her mate soon too, so much so that he made an offering to the gods about it, and now she's panicking about them, but she's probably helping her brother regulate his emotions,” Kaia explained.

EloiseAfter Elijah scolded the guard and moved him to another location, we finally entered the office. Isa looked exhausted, while Elijah tried to hold back his laughter. I kept a straight face, but Nalia laughed so hard that it was contagious.That made Isa leave the office, muttering something unintelligible about how crazy people were.“It's been a while since I've seen them so upset,” Elijah said with a smile, then looked at Nalia. “Do you have all the information?”She nodded and explained everything to us, telling us about her men's training, what they had accomplished, and their objectives. Nalia was specific, direct, and to the point. She proposed some adjustments, which Elijah reviewed and changed slightly based on the new situations. For my part, I suggested they take two routes out of the East, routes that few knew about and that turned out to be very good for avoiding general checks, although I had no idea if Hall had them in mind in his conquest plan.“Okay, I'll leave r

EloiseThe devastation of what had really happened to Bryan was enormous.After learning the truth, Kaia activated a containment protocol for him, as well as for the rest of the team who felt guilty. She didn't know what had happened at the time or how they had handled the situation, but it was clear that the proper protocols for handling Bryan's case had not been followed.Jenny had to painfully separate herself from Bryan.She felt so guilty that she was ashamed, so once the protocol was applied, she not only cried; she vomited from the shock. Her parents were bewildered, and when her mother was about to complain, it was the young girl who looked her in the eye with pain.“It's our fault he got lost, Mom,” she said angrily. “I didn't say what I heard, and you didn't dig deeper into what that damn bastard did to him. Bryan's anger is nothing compared to what we deserve.”Those words were a slap in the face to her parents.They easily understood what Jenny was talking about and were h

ElijahMy mate fell fast asleep, and I finally took a deep breath.What had happened in the pack was crazy, but seeing Eloise in action, knowing what her power entailed and how she handled the situation like a true queen, not only touched my heart deeply but was also a clear sign of her strength.I was afraid she would be so exhausted that she wouldn't be able to react like she did last time, but she showed me that she could handle anything and everything, and that not only made me feel lucky; it also made me realize her potential.I kissed Eloise on the forehead, covered her with the comforter, and then took a shower.When I got changed, I didn't sleep with her.The reality was that I had a mess to clean up, no matter what.I couldn't stop working for the people. The situation was crazy, and I refused to rest in that context. So I went to my office, checked the numbers again, then calculated costs based on the latest reports sent and the economic losses for the people.I was so focus

EloiseI felt the astonishment in Elijah's body.Whatever the forest spirit did, it not only surprised him; it was really affecting him.“Has it blessed us?” Elijah asked incredulously, and I raised my eyebrows, my mouth agape. “That...”“Before creation itself came into being, I was once a God, devoted and distant,” said the forest spirit. “I was confined to taking this form. And only a few, like you, were able to visit me. However, of all those who ever came and challenged me, you were the only one who understood the curse I imposed and who ultimately found happiness.”The spirit's words took me completely by surprise, and I looked at my mate in pain.“Why did you do something so cruel?” I questioned the spirit, and everyone tensed up, but not me. “A desperate mother—”“It was fate,” said the spirit without hesitation, and I was petrified. "The punishment for Elijah was for interfering with fate; it wasn't something I did because I wanted to. I was sentenced to be in this forest by
