All Chapters of Bound To The Ruthless Alpha: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Julian did not raise his voice once during the whole interrogation with Mira.That was the scariest part.I stood against the wall of the holding room and watched him pull a chair out slowly and sit across from Mira like they were about to have a normal conversation. The cloth bundle sat on the table between them. The smell coming off it had not gotten any better. It sat at the back of my throat like something old and burnt.Mira kept her eyes on the table.“Who gave it to you,” Julian said.Silence.“I will ask one more time and then I will stop asking and start making decisions for you. Who gave it to you.”Mira’s hands were flat on the table and I could see them shaking from where I stood. “I found it.”“You found it,” Julian said back to her slowly. No expression. No reaction. Just repeating her words like he wanted her to hear how they sounded. “You found an object made to destroy a mate bond and you decided to put it at Selina’s door at two in the morning.”Mira said nothing.Jul

The heavy door slammed shut, sealing us inside Julian’s private chambers. The veil aura burned hot between us, pulling tighter with every breath as the full moon drew closer.Julian didn’t waste a second. “The scout said your blood can either save packs or tear them apart. The rival Alpha is planning to force you. Be honest with me, Selina are you scared? Do you want to run away?”I held his gaze. “Scared, yes. Running? No. This prophecy named me long before I understood my blood, but I need honesty from you. Why does the thought of me having real power scare you so much?”He stepped closer, eyes dark. He lifted his hand toward my face but stopped just mid-way but I saw the fear behind it. The Alpha who hated losing control now stood inches away, fighting it.A horn blared from the training grounds outside, signaling the start of the pack challenge.Julian pulled back slightly, frustration and something deeper in his eyes. “They’re waiting. But this conversation isn’t over.”We walked

Ethan hit the ground first.I had seen it because I had gone out after Julian left.There was no way I was going to sit back in hiding while others were out there fighting to protect me.The sickening sound of his body slamming against stone cut through the courtyard just as another arrow whistled past my face.“Down!” someone shouted.It was already too late.The shift tore through me without warning. Pain exploded along my spine. My knees buckled, cracking the stone beneath them. Heat flooded every inch of my body so fiercely that I could barely draw breath. The veil aura erupted outward in a burst of golden light that flashed across the courtyard like lightning.The rival wolves froze for half a second.That single heartbeat was all Julian needed.He tore through them like vengeance given form. One moment he stood at the gates. The next, he had a man by the throat, slamming him into the wall with enough force to leave streaks of blood behind. Chaos swallowed the courtyard. Growls ros

Julian had insisted we read the letter together to prove he had nothing to hide. We read it twice, searching for any loopholes, but the rival Alpha’s offer was clear. Peace for Goldenville. No attack on the full moon. All he wanted was me. In return, he promised the full truth about my parents and my bloodline.The silence between us felt thick and painful. I kept staring at the paper, even though the words had burned into my mind. My hands felt cold and my chest felt like it was about to rip open. Julian still gripped the letter so hard the edges started to crease.“The rival Alpha knows exactly what to say,” Julian muttered, his voice low and angry. “He is using the one thing you have wanted your whole life. Answers. After all the lies from your father, he dangles the truth like a trap.”I swallowed hard. Tears stung my eyes. “What if it is not a trap? What if he really knows everything? I spent years feeling like something was wrong with me, like I never belonged, like I was just th

The forest exploded into chaos around us. One second we were riding back from the patrol, the next second arrows were flying and rival wolves were bursting from the trees like shadows that came to life. They moved straight for me. Not Julian. Not the warriors. Me.“Stay behind me!” Julian roared, shoving me back as he swung his blade.But one of them got through. A big, snarling wolf slammed into my side and knocked me off my feet. Pain flared through my ribs and it made Something inside me snapped. The veil aura surged hot and wild, and for the first time I did not try to push it down.I let it out.My claws ripped out. My bones shifted halfway as I twisted under the wolf and slashed across his belly. He howled and stumbled back, I did not stop. I drove my claws into his shoulder and shoved him off me, growling like a wild thing. Blood coated my hands. My own blood sang with power.Julian turned, eyes wide. He stared at me for a split second, shock clear on his face,Then pride and raw
