All Chapters of AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Beau takes a deep and slow breath, and his chest falls into a steady rhythm while the heavy sleep takes over his exhausted mind. The severe heat fever is over at last, so his fragile heart no longer beats at a dangerous and terrifying speed.Rhett fetches a warm and damp cloth from the small bathroom, and he wipes the sticky sweat and the heavy slick from our mate's pale skin. Seth pulls the clean gray sheets up over Beau's bare shoulders, and he tucks the thick blankets firm around his waist to keep him warm.I check the medical monitor one last time, and I feel a profound sense of relief when I see the strong green line moving across the dark screen. Our Triad bond is solid now, and the three distinct venom strains are working in perfect harmony to heal the deep damage inside his system.His mutated nature is free of those toxic pills, and the terrible withdrawal sickness will never threaten his life again. He looks so peaceful and young while he rests, and the heavy burden of the u

Dean's revelation hangs in the quiet air, and he points a steady finger at the bright laptop screen on the kitchen island.I stare at the digital blueprints of our underground bunker, and a deep anger takes over my mind because someone betrayed our family today.I think about the terrible pain Beau suffered in the bedroom, and I realize a trusted friend caused his suffering on purpose. The cartel did not find our location by chance, as a traitor had handed over our secret security plans to Vincent Rossi.I turn away from the kitchen island, and I walk straight toward the metal weapons locker in the corner of the room. I open the heavy metal door, and I reach inside to grab my black tactical rifle from the rack.My protective instincts take over my rational thoughts, and I only care about eliminating the immediate threat to our sleeping mate. I grab a long metal suppressor from the top shelf, and I twist the attachment onto the barrel of my gun so my shots stay quiet."What are you doi

The soft sheets feel incredibly warm against my skin, and I stretch my legs out across the large mattress while I enjoy the peaceful silence. I do not want to wake up just yet, because I feel so safe and protected in this quiet nest.My system is free from the daily poison I swallowed for ten years, and my mind feels light and clear without the heavy suppression dragging my thoughts down. I can feel the three Alpha venoms moving smoothly through my veins, and they connect my wild nature to a solid foundation of pure trust.I take a slow breath, and my chest rises without any of the sharp pain that tortured me earlier tonight. The severe fever that burned my skin is gone, and a new warmth radiates from my core to signal my safe transition into a natural heat cycle.My body is finally acting the way it was meant to act, and my submissive nature embraces the change without any fear. The transition heightens every single one of my senses, and I feel a deep connection to the environment ar

The sharp sound of suppressed gunfire echoes loud in the dark hallway, and hot bullets tear through the tiny gap in the heavy steel doors to force us back.My deep Alpha instincts take over my rational mind, and I immediately turn my broad back toward the deadly spray of lead so I can protect my family from the ambush.I wrap my large arms tight around Beau's shaking frame, and I use my own body as a heavy shield to protect his coughing form from the crossfire.Beau hides his face against my chest while his weak hands grab my dark shirt in sheer terror, and the harsh smell of toxic smoke makes him tremble even harder."Keep your head down right now, baby," I tell my mate in a firm tone, and I press my hand against the back of his neck to protect his fresh bite marks from any stray bullets."I will not let a single bullet touch you, because you are safe inside my arms."The metal walls spark with bright flashes of light as the bullets bounce off the concrete, so I drop down to my knees

I look past Seth's broad shoulder to see the dead man lying on the cold concrete floor of the stairwell.The flickering emergency lights cast a pale glow over the young guard's face, and the terrible sight makes my heart skip a beat.I recognize his short blonde hair and the small scar over his right eyebrow right away, because he stood guard at my front gates just yesterday.The brutal truth hits my chest with a massive wave of pure shock, and my brain struggles to process the depth of this awful betrayal.My own trusted guard put on a dark tactical mask and tried to murder me in the dark while I slept in my own bed.A massive rush of adrenaline floods my veins as the raw panic takes over my system, and the intense stress triggers a sudden change in my body.The heavy mating fever vanishes in a single second, because my natural instincts suddenly prioritize my survival over the mating cycle.The deep ache in my lower stomach fades away into a cold numbness, and my trembling hands cle
