บททั้งหมดของ The Forbidden Alpha’s Mate: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

LEVI’S POVSilence didn’t fade after the shift, it just sank deeper, heavier in a way that didn’t feel empty anymore, like something had stopped reacting and was still there… aware.My chest tightened slowly, not from fear at first, but from recognition my mind wasn’t fully ready to accept. There was this uncomfortable pressure sitting under my ribs, like my body already understood something my thoughts were still refusing to name.“This doesn’t feel right,” I muttered under my breath, almost like saying it quietly would make it less real.He didn’t answer immediately, but I felt him anyway… not distance, not direction, something heavier, like awareness pressing against awareness without moving. And that alone made my throat tighten slightly, because it wasn’t just connection anymore, it felt like awareness itself had changed shape between us.“Yeah…” his voice came lower. “It feels off.”It hit differently after that, the weight between us shifting from confusion straight into recogn

LEVI’S POVI pushed deeper into the underground structure, and something about it already felt wrong in a way I couldn’t ignore anymore.It wasn’t resisting me like a normal place should. It was noticing me… shaping around me, adjusting, like it already knew where I was going before I even chose it.“What the hell…” I muttered under my breath, jaw tightening as the corridor ahead shifted again without warning.I stopped for half a second. That wasn’t normal, not even close.The deeper I went, the worse it got. Walls changing direction after I made decisions, like the place was reacting to my thoughts instead of my movements.A slow breath left me before I could stop it.“Don’t tell me this thing is thinking…” I whispered, and I hated how real that sounded.Because part of me already knew it was.I kept moving anyway, but my control over this situation was starting to feel thin, too thin, like the moment I trusted it fully, it would stop pretending and show me something worse.Then I s

LEVI POVI reached deeper into the structure, and the first thing that hit me wasn’t resistance, it was silence.Too clean, too intentional, like the place wasn’t trying to stop me anymore…it was watching how I moved.And that alone made my steps feel heavier than they should’ve. Like the floor wasn’t just carrying me, it was noticing every shift in weight, every pause, every hesitation I tried to hide even from myself.“Okay… this is getting fucked up,” I muttered under my breath, slowing my steps without meaning to.The deeper I went, the worse it got, there were no locked doors, no barriers, just space that kept shifting slightly every time I made a decision, like it was correcting itself around me, like I wasn’t forcing my way in, like I was being allowed in.That thought alone made my stomach tighten.Because being allowed in meant I wasn’t breaking anything. It meant I was already expected.“Don’t start that shit,” I whispered to myself, shaking my head once like I could reset m

LEVI’S POVThe shift didn’t feel like movement, it felt like something slid over everything.One second I was standing in the structure, locked in, aware of every line, every edge, every piece holding together exactly how it should, and the next… something was off, not broken, not wrong, just—misaligned in a way I couldn’t explain.I stilled, not physically, but mentally.Because my chest tightened the second it hit me, that quiet, uncomfortable feeling that something wasn’t where it was supposed to be, and I hated that feeling.“What the hell…” I muttered under my breath, my voice low as I looked around, trying to track it, trying to see what my body already felt.Nothing looked different, which was the problem, everything was still there exactly where it should be, but it didn’t feel the same.I took a slow step forward, my jaw tightening slightly as I focused harder, my senses stretching, pushing against the structure like I was trying to catch whatever was slipping through it.“Th

LEVI POVThe corridor changed the moment I stepped deeper, reorganizing itself around me in a way that didn’t feel normal anymore.At first I thought I was imagining it, just my brain trying to make sense of unfamiliar space, but then I tried to go back the way I came.And there was no “way back” at all.“What the hell…” I muttered under my breath, slowing down without meaning to.My chest tightened a little, that sinking feeling creeping in when something stops behaving like a place and starts behaving like it’s thinking. Not reacting. Not resisting. Thinking.The walls shifted again, not pushing me away, not stopping me, just quietly removing whatever direction I tried to rely on. Like the structure didn’t like the path I was choosing and erased it without warning.I stopped walking.“…no way,” I whispered, jaw tightening. “That’s not normal.”But nothing here had been normal for a while, and still—this was different.This wasn’t resistance anymore.It felt like correction… like I w
