All Chapters of Saved by the Alpha: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

ArselElaine didn’t bring up the subject when she woke up.That was the first thing that made me nervous.Not because I wanted her to confront me right away, but because I’d learned that Elaine’s silence was never empty. She might stay quiet out of exhaustion, fear, observation, or an inner need to put every piece in order before asking a question capable of bringing down walls.And I knew which wall was about to come down.Mine.I made breakfast with almost military precision to avoid thinking too much about it. I prepared coffee, tea, fruit, bread, eggs, oatmeal, and an herbal tea that Mom had written down to strengthen the body after episodes of severe stress. When I set everything on the table, Elaine appeared in the kitchen with her hair down, a loose sweater, and that serene look that could be calm or determined.Leo stirred inside me.Today, said my beast.I know.Don’t run away, Leo ordered firmly.I won’t.Elaine sat down across from me.“Good morning,” she said warmly.“Good

ElaineHappiness was strange.It didn’t come like a burst of music or like perfect laughter or like that absurd image humans peddled in magazine photos where everything looked clean, tidy, and effortless.It came as warmth, as a breath against my hair, as a large hand covering mine, as Arsel’s heartbeat beneath my cheek.I woke up in his arms with the evening light filtering through the cabin windows.For a moment I didn’t move; Arsel was fast asleep.His face looked younger when he rested; the tension of an Alpha softened, his brow relaxed, and his lips remained barely parted. A part of me wanted to laugh at the thought that the man who could make an entire square tremble with his aura could also sleep with an almost vulnerable expression if I had my head on his chest.My hand slowly moved up to my neck.The mark was there.It didn’t hurt; it just felt warm and sensitive, like a heartbeat beneath my skin. When I touched it, Arsel stirred immediately, even in his sleep, and his arm ti

ArselThe scare changed everything in an instant.The almost unreal peace of our idyllic days vanished in seconds, and what had been complete calm turned into a frenzy of anguish.The distant howl grew more desperate, more intense, and Arsel’s entire body tensed. I felt the echo of that sound reverberating within the bond like a wave of anguish crashing against the shore.“We have to go back immediately!” I said, real fear seeping into my veins like poison.Fifteen minutes later, we rushed out.For the first time since we’d arrived at that cabin, the refuge no longer felt safe. Suddenly it seemed too quiet, too isolated, too far from everything that mattered.We barely spoke on the way, not because we didn’t want to, but because neither of us knew what to say. Arsel tried to contact Kiel but got no response. Then he tried Liv, then his mother, and still there was no clear sign of what was happening. His nerves were evident because the silence was a very bad sign.I had learned over th

ElaineDawn arrived like a white lie.The entire mansion seemed held in check, like a lung that couldn’t quite finish exhaling. After the Conclave, no one had slept well. I knew that because I hadn’t either.Arsel had been standing for hours when I came downstairs.I saw him from the stairs: he was standing by the hallway window with his arms crossed and his eyes fixed on the forest, as if the forest owed him an answer.I didn’t say anything. I walked over and stood beside him.He glanced at me out of the corner of his eye, and something in his jaw relaxed just a millimeter.“You should have slept,” he said calmly.“So should you,” I replied firmly.I didn’t add anything else.Sometimes silence is the only answer that doesn’t lie.By mid-morning, the mansion was full again.Selene had summoned the leaders before breakfast, but not in the great hall, but rather in the map room, which was smaller, more intimate, and, according to Arsel, harder to infiltrate with magical listening device

ArselI watched my mate as she slept.She had finally succumbed to sleep, and that put me at ease.In one way or another, her silent devotion to me was so profound that I could feel it. Elaine wasn’t just attuned to my feelings; she made sure to give me the respite and encouragement I needed.Realizing how beautifully loyal and devoted she was without her even realizing it turned out to be the best incentive of all.And that gave me more peace than I could ever have hoped for.I kissed the crease between her eyebrows and then left my room.I went to the office and found my mother in the hallway; she was in her pajamas and had a serious expression on her face. That made me tense up immediately.“Is something wrong?” I asked without hesitation.She nodded and gestured toward the door, so I opened it and went in with her.Once we sat down, my mother unleashed her energetic power and created a small dome over us. That made me raise my eyebrows.It’s a reminder that your mother is divine,
