Bound to the Rogue Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 101 - チャプター 110

Laney’s grip on my wrist was firm as she hauled me upright. "Brooke, you have to shed those soaked furs. They’re stealing the last of your heat. Don't go still on me. If the blood stops moving, the frost takes hold. Stand up and move your limbs. Force the warmth out."I’d heard the grim tales of omegas lost in the winter mist, frozen into statues before the sun could find them. I didn't want to be a ghost story. I struggled to pull off my heavy, sodden coat, my head swimming with a sudden, violent vertigo. I stayed on my feet, but only by sheer will."Are you certain someone is tracking us? What if the scent is lost in the water?" My teeth rattled together, making the words come out in broken shards. I had to keep talking to Laney; if I went silent, I knew I’d never wake up.Laney stripped her own wet gear, wringing the river water out with effortless strength. "Keep your spirit high, Brooke. Someone is coming. Look." She pointed toward the distant stone arches of the bridge. Faint, f

Logan Pierce was one of the few Alphas that Luke Turner actually feared.He had no desire to end up on the wrong side of the Pierce Compound’s border patrols. At this moment, Luke calculated that it simply wasn't worth the risk of offending such a powerhouse just to keep Madison Lawson happy."I'll keep my trackers out for your mother," Luke said, his voice light and dismissive. "But that's as far as I'm willing to push it."Madison wasn't a fledgling; she could smell his hesitation from a mile away. She knew he wasn't going to go to war for her. As she ended the call, a cold dread began to coil in her stomach. If Logan had indeed snatched her mother, it wouldn't be long before he extracted the truth about the river incident—and Madison's own role in it.Suddenly, her throat tightened. A wave of violent nausea hit her. She sprinted to the washroom and heaved until her ribs ached.What is happening? Is my wolf reacting to the stress? Did I eat something tainted? She was still trying to

I recoiled as my father’s snarl vibrated through the stone of the communication device. Stumbling from the infirmary cot, I stammered into the receiver, "I’m... I’m at Bayview. Is Mother actually in the Citadel dungeon? Calm down, Father. I’ll go to the Warden’s gates right now and bring her home."In truth, the blood in my veins ran cold not for her, but for my own skin. If Evelyn was baring her soul to the High Wardens, it was only a matter of time before she pointed the finger at me. I had to muzzle her before the record was sealed."Don't bother, Madison. The High Alpha’s guard just sent word. She’s been shackled and is awaiting a blood-trial. Given the lives she took on that bridge, they’re likely to sentence her to the silver collar."The words hit me like a physical blow. I’d survived a crash and a miscarriage in a single moon, and now the last pillar of my world was crumbling. My vision blurred, the room spinning as I slumped against the cold headboard."Father, please... you

"Why is he so fixated on her? It’s sickening!" I snarled, the sound vibrating in my throat.The ache in my chest was transforming into a jagged, lethal need to make Brooke Lawson vanish."Logan has only known her a few moon-cycles, yet she’s already the center of his world. Is he scent-blind? She’s a Plain Jane, a nobody from a broken lineage. I cannot fathom why an Alpha of his standing is head over heels for a girl with no bite."The more I dwelled on Logan’s devotion to Brooke, the more the cold dread seeped into my bones. I feared that one day, he wouldn't just keep her in the Harbor View Apartment; he would stand before the High Council and announce that Brooke was the Luna of Pierce Holdings.Not Gaston, the failed mask he wore, but Logan Pierce himself.I had to snuff her out before that sun rose.But as much as I wanted to tear her throat out myself, I couldn't risk the blood on my own hands. Jason Miller had been a useless tool, and even colluding with Evelyn Lawson had ended

"Get a transport runner to this coordinate with the finest artistic tools in the Citadel immediately!"On the other side of the link, Evan Brooks was stunned by the Alpha’s command. He had been occupied overseeing the cleanup of the Pierce Compound, but an order from Logan wasn't something one questioned. "I... understood, sir. I’ll have it handled within the hour."Evan rightfully guessed that this sudden whim was for Brooke’s benefit. Thirty minutes later, the rhythmic thrum of rotors broke the silence of the island as a supply craft hovered over the clearing, dropping a sealed crate.Logan wasted no time. He hauled the heavy easel and the sturdy oak drawing board onto his back, clutching the professional-grade pigments and fine-hair brushes in his hands as he emerged back onto the sand."Logan! Where did those come from?"I stood up, my jaw dropping. I looked around the desolate beach, then back at the massive drawing board. "There isn't a soul for miles, and certainly no shops in
