Mated To My Ex’s Stepbrother, The Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

Aria’s POV For several seconds, I just stared at Mira. Her words echoed in my head, bouncing around without making sense. My brain refused to connect them. “What?” I breathed, shaking my head slowly. “That… that doesn’t make any sense.” Mira frowned slightly, clearly confused by my reaction. “What do you mean?” I ran a hand through my hair, trying to steady the strange rush of emotions flooding my chest. “Why would Damon do that?” I asked, my voice tight with disbelief. “What happened?” Mira shrugged casually, though cur

Aria’s POV The impact was so sudden that Damon actually staggered. For a split second, his body swayed, his balance thrown off as Kade’s fist connected with his face. The sound alone made my stomach twist, sharp and violent, echoing in the small space of my room. “Damon—!” He caught himself just before he could fall, one hand bracing against the edge of the table. Blood trickled instantly from his nose, dark and stark against his already bruised skin. Shock froze me in place, then anger followed. “What the fuck are you doing!?” I snapped, my voice rising as

Aria’s POV The moment I heard the lock click, something inside me snapped. I stared at the door for half a second, my chest rising and falling too fast, Damon’s words still echoing in my head. “Stay here.” My hands curled into fists. “Unbelievable,” I muttered under my breath, pacing the small room like a caged animal. Anger burned hot beneath my skin, sharp and relentless. “Absolutely unbelievable.” He thought he could just lock me in here like I was fragile. Like I couldn’t handle myself.

Damon’s POV My focus was on the small, trembling figure kneeling beside Aria. Mira. Her hands hovered uselessly over Aria’s broken form, trembling so violently it was a wonder she hadn’t collapsed beside her already. “What happened!? What is she doing here? Did you release her!?” I demanded, my voice sharper than intended, my chest tight, every nerve on fire. Mira shook her head, her hair plastered to her face by the rain. Her lips quivered as she spoke. “She… she found the neutralizers, but one of the…” She swallowed hard, the rest of her words choking in her throat. “One of the wolves… got her as she deneutralized it. I… I was there for the last bit. I knocked him out.” 

Damon’s POV “What do you mean no?” The words came out low and controlled, but there was nothing calm about the way my wolf slammed against my ribs, clawing for release. I stared at Kade, my eyes narrowing as I waited for him to correct himself, to take it back, to do the one thing that should have come naturally to him. He didn’t. Kade exhaled sharply and dragged a hand through his hair, his gaze flicking briefly to Aria before settling back on me. “I said no,” he repeated, firmer this time, like he needed to convince himself as much as the rest of us. “Find someone else. It’s just blood. Anyone can give it.”
