Semua Bab Alpha’s Obsession: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Bella’s POVOnce we were back at the Forsaken park, I called for a pack meeting.They came quickly, wolves and vampires gathering in the open space near the trees, their expressions tense, already sensing that something was wrong. I stood before them and told them everything as it had happened. The council’s summons. Their thinly veiled threats. The trap they had set and how close it had come to costing us more than we could afford to lose.As I spoke, I felt the shift in the air. Fear, yes, but also anger. The kind that tightened shoulders and curled hands into fists.When I finished, I took a breath and continued, my voice steady.Things could not stay the same after this.I told them security around the pack would be reinforced immediately. Patrols would be tighter, routes adjusted, and no one would move without someone knowing where they were going. I made it clear that the vampires were no longer to walk alone. Every single one of them would be paired with a werewolf, not because

Bella’s POVAfter taking a shower, I sat on the chair on the balcony of my room, my phone resting in my hand as I texted Ronald. I needed to tell him what had happened. I needed him to know everything.A few hours earlier, two men had come to take the vampire’s body away and clean the living room. They worked quickly and efficiently, as if this kind of thing was routine, but nothing about it felt normal to me. Outside, people were walking around the pack in a state of panic, their voices hushed but frantic. I could feel their eyes on our house, curiosity and fear following every step they took.From the balcony, I could hear Gideon shouting at his men. His anger carried clearly through the pack, sharp and unforgiving. From what I gathered, the vampire had taken advantage of the patrol shift change to sneak into the territory unnoticed. That realization made my stomach twist. Someone had planned this. Someone had studied our weaknesses.Once I found the vampire behind all of this, I kn

Bella’s POVCassandra was the first to speak.“Follow me, cousin,” she said coldly, “or I will tell my friend to kill that bitch you call your best friend.”She pointed toward the cash register, where Elizabeth stood patiently in line, unaware of what was unfolding only a few aisles away. Behind her, a vampire leaned casually against the counter. When his eyes met mine, he winked.Rage burned through me.“I see you, Cassandra,” I said, my voice low and shaking with fury. “I will kill you if you touch a single hair on her head. Do not fucking play with the people I love.”She smiled, slow and cruel.“You just have to come with me,” she replied. “Then that stupid friend of yours will be fine.”Cassandra turned and walked toward the emergency exit at the back of the supermarket. My heart pounded, but I followed her. I had no choice.The door slammed shut behind us as we stepped into the narrow alley. Rain poured from the sky, heavy and relentless, soaking the ground and the walls around

Bella’s POV“My head,” I said weakly.They had not let me open my eyes for a while. Gideon kept calling my name over and over, and the sound of his voice slowly pulled me back from the darkness. When I finally forced my eyes open and tried to look around, the sunlight streaming into the room hit me all at once and blinded me for a few seconds. I groaned and lifted a hand to shield my face as my vision adjusted.I was lying on a bed, and Gideon was sitting beside me, watching me with a deeply worried expression. Even before I fully took in my surroundings, the familiar scent of pine, leather, and him told me exactly where I was. I was in his bedroom.“What happened?” I asked, my voice hoarse. “Why am I here? And why is there so much light?” I held my head as the dull ache pulsed behind my eyes.I was about to ask something else when the image of the girl’s body pushed its way into my mind without warning. Her lifeless eyes, the blood soaking into her clothes, the message carved into he

Bella’s POVGideon strode toward us with fury written all over his face, his eyes locked on Xander as if he were already preparing to strike. The tension in his body made it clear that he was seconds away from losing control, and I knew that if I did not intervene immediately, this would turn into something far worse.Before he could reach him, I stepped directly in front of Gideon, forcing him to stop unless he was willing to push through me.“Gideon, stop this bullshit right now,” I said firmly, holding his gaze so he could see that I was not backing down. “I am tired of watching you two fight every single time you see each other.”He looked stunned for a second, clearly not expecting me to speak to him that way, but I continued before either of them could interrupt me.“You are family, for fuck’s sake,” I went on, my voice rising with frustration. “It is time for you to talk and solve your stupid conflicts instead of acting like enemies.”Xander remained silent behind me, and Gideo
