《The alpha's forbidden desire》全部章節：第 121 章 - 第 130 章

The morning came slow and gray behind the curtains, the kind of light that made no promises about the hour. Silius was still tangled in sleep when he felt lips brush his cheek, warm and familiar, and a voice pulling him up out of the dark."Baby, wake up."He groaned and burrowed deeper into the pillow, refusing to acknowledge that morning had any right to exist. "Ugh... no. It's our day off.""That's not how mornings work," Mathew said, amusement threading through his voice."Let me sleep." Silius reached blindly for the blanket and yanked it over his head, sealing himself into a small, dark, breathless world where Mathew's voice couldn't reach him. It was a terrible plan and he knew it even as he executed it.Mathew, predictably, pulled the blanket right back down. "That doesn't mean you get to skip your breakfast."Silius peeked one eye open, glaring at him with all the ferocity a half-asleep person could summon, which was not much. "Mmmm... I'm sleepy.""I know." Mathew's mouth cu

It was midnight when the house finally gave up its silence for the sound of a key turning in the lock. Silius had not meant to fall asleep on the couch. He had meant to sit there, upright, alert, phone gripped in his hand, and wait for the sound of Mathew's footsteps the way he'd waited for so many other things that day — the restaurant reservation that had come and gone unused, the movie tickets that were probably still sitting untouched in some app on Mathew's phone, the hour that had promised to be an hour and had instead swallowed the rest of the evening whole. He had texted. No reply. He had called, once, twice, a third time, each attempt swallowed by ringing and then silence, as if Mathew had simply ceased to exist somewhere out there in the dark. It was as if the man had vanished entirely, taking with him every plan they'd made that morning and leaving nothing behind but an empty promise and a plate of cold breakfast still sitting on the counter. And still, Silius had wai

Mile pushed open the door to Michael's office without knocking, the way he always did now, as though permission were a formality that no longer applied to him. He stepped inside and let the door click shut behind him, the sound final and private, sealing the two of them away from the rest of the building."So," he said, crossing his arms and leaning against the edge of the desk. "Are you gonna say sorry for what you did to me the other day?"Michael didn't even look up from whatever was on his screen. "I'm not gonna say sorry for something you clearly enjoyed."Mile rolled his eyes so hard it nearly hurt. "Then why did you ask me to come here?"Michael finally lifted his gaze, dark and unreadable, the kind of look that always made Mile feel like he was being calculated rather than seen. But he didn't answer right away. Instead, he let the silence stretch, let Mile shift his weight and wait, before he spoke again, changing the subject entirely."I mean," Mile pressed, when the quiet be

No matter how many times Mathew tried to talk to him, Silius kept ignoring him. Every attempt was met with the same wall of silence, the same refusal to even turn his head. Mathew kept trying to explain, his words tumbling out faster with each rejection, but Silius wouldn't look at him. Wouldn't listen. Wouldn't give him the mercy of a response.By the time they got home, the silence between them had calcified into something almost physical. Silius went straight to their room the moment the front door closed, his footsteps sharp and final against the floor, leaving Mathew standing alone in the hallway with his half-formed sentences dying in the air behind him."Baby—" Mathew called, jogging after him, catching up just as Silius reached the bedroom door. "Can you at least listen to my explanation?"Silius didn't stop moving."I'm sorry I didn't tell you this sooner," Mathew tried again, desperation creeping into his voice now, the composure he usually wore so effortlessly starting to f

Michael's glare didn't waver, even as Dan circled closer, that familiar half-lidded smirk fixed in place like a mask he never bothered to take off."Ooh, what was his name again?" Dan mused, tapping a finger against his chin in mock thought. "Ooh yeah... Mile." His smirk deepened. "Isn't he Silius's brother?"Michael's expression didn't change, but something behind his eyes sharpened."Does Silius know that you're screwing his brother?" Dan asked, voice light, almost sing-song, like he was discussing the weather instead of detonating a landmine."How did you know about him?" Michael demanded, his voice low and controlled, though the tension in his shoulders betrayed him.Dan only laughed, soft and unbothered. "Do you really forget about who I am, Michael?""Stay the fuck away—" Michael started, but Dan was already closing the distance, entirely unfazed by the warning."What the fuck is wrong with you?" Michael shoved him back, disgust and fury tangled together on his face."What do yo
