บททั้งหมดของ REJECTED BY THE ALPHA, CLAIMED BY HIS ENEMY: บทที่ 111 - บทที่ 120

Althea.The whisper echoed through darkness older than kingdoms.It drifted through stone corridors untouched by time.Across forgotten chambers.Through ancient seals.Past the seven archways.Until it reached the heart of the First Path itself.The name was not spoken by a person.It was spoken by the mountain.And for the first time in centuries, the mountain had chosen to remember.Far above, snow fell across the northern valley.Neither Althea nor Lucien knew why a chill suddenly crawled down their spines.But they both felt it.The bond between them tightened.Not with affection.Not with fear.Recognition.The mountain knew they had arrived.And somehow, that felt more dangerous than the First King.Around them, the wolves of Blackwood and Nightfall had begun establishing a temporary encampment at the base of the mountain.Tents rose quickly.Scouts spread outward.Healers organized supplies.Warriors sharpened weapons that might soon prove useless against whatever waited ahead

The First King smiled.Far beneath the mountain, inside halls untouched by time, he felt the resonance surge through the First Path.Not one anchor.Two.Together.At last.The sensation washed through the ancient corridors like a living heartbeat.The mountain responded immediately.Stone doors that had remained sealed for centuries began to open.Ancient runes ignited across walls.Forgotten mechanisms awakened.The First King closed his eyes.Listening.Waiting.Calculating.Then he laughed softly."You're finally here."The sound echoed through the chamber.The figure beside the Seventh Throne did not respond.It merely watched.As it had watched for centuries.As it had watched kingdoms rise and fall.As it had watched the First King lose everything.The First King opened his eyes."They've come exactly as expected."The guardian remained silent.That silence irritated him.More than he cared to admit.Because silence meant judgment.And judgment implied authority.The First King

The final chain snapped.The sound echoed through the First Path like thunder.Not loud.Not explosive.Worse.Deliberate.Ancient.Final.Every silver flame inside the Hall of Remembered extinguished simultaneously.Darkness swallowed the chamber.For one terrible heartbeat, silence ruled.Then something growled.Deep below.A sound so old it barely resembled a living creature.The floor trembled.Cracks raced across the stone.Dust rained from the ceiling.Althea instinctively reached for Lucien.Lucien had already stepped in front of her.His eyes searched the darkness.Every instinct screamed danger.Not ordinary danger.Predator danger.The kind that existed before reason.Before civilization.Before wolves.Lyra's face had lost all color."Move."Nobody argued.The urgency in her voice left no room for debate.The three of them ran.The Hall of Remembered shook violently around them.Ancient pillars collapsed.Stone shattered.Names carved into the walls fractured and disappeare

Dreadfang hesitated.For the first time in centuries.The massive creature stood frozen between obedience and freedom.Its enormous body trembled.The collar around its neck pulsed violently.Blue fire erupted from the runes engraved into the ancient metal.The First King's face darkened."Obey."The command echoed through the corridor.The collar flashed.Dreadfang howled.Not with rage.With pain.Althea's chest tightened.Because she understood now.Every attack.Every act of violence.Every century of servitude.The creature had never chosen any of it.The First King raised his hand again.Power flooded the corridor.The collar glowed brighter.The beast's body convulsed.Lucien immediately stepped between Althea and the creature.Ready to protect her if Dreadfang lost control.The First King's smile returned.Slow.Cold.Confident."You cannot save everything."Althea met his gaze."No."The First King's eyes narrowed.She continued."But I can try."The answer clearly annoyed hi

The roar echoed through the First Path.Ancient.Monstrous.Unnatural.But for the first time, nobody cared.Not Althea.Not Lucien.Not Ronan.Not Varis.Not even Lyra.Because they had finally found the truth.The First King was afraid.And fear meant weakness.The ancient ruler realized it too.His expression hardened instantly.The uncertainty vanished behind centuries of discipline.Power surged around him.Dark resonance exploded from his body.The corridor cracked.Several warriors were thrown backward.Pillars shattered.The temperature dropped.The First King raised one hand.Enough power gathered around him to level an army."Then come."The invitation wasn't a challenge.It was a threat.The battle began.Lucien moved first.The Alpha exploded forward in wolf form.Not alone.Ronan was beside him.Two Alphas.Blackwood and Nightfall.Fighting together.For perhaps the first time in history.The First King met them head-on.The collision shook the mountain.Lucien attacked f
