All Chapters of Breaking the Alpha's curse : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Alpha Liam I felt refreshed after a good night's sleep, and I thought the refreshing feeling would last. Throughout the night, Jane's calm breathing beside me was comforting, a luxury I thought I couldn't afford. I thought she wouldn't sleep after throwing a tantrum last night, but I thought wrong. She slept so well, her soft snoring became a melody to my ears. At some point, I asked myself… “What's wrong with you? Why would you find peace with her and not anyone else? Thinking about her always made me confused. The old book, the familiar coffee she made. Then the moon goddess claimed that we're somehow connected. Nothing makes sense, not even my newly founded peace. As the morning sunlight seeped through the window, it made me think it would be a nice day. I pretended to be asleep while listening to Jane's heartbeat. But, Aria's loud voice disturbed the peace, and her tantrum filled the room, replacing the tranquility in my heart. I sighed, knowing that my calm morning was alrea

Jane's POV Was this the same lady Josephine talked highly about? I wondered as I stared at her. I can't believe Josephine said she was a nice person. How is this nice? She couldn't even regard Josephine with respect. “I'm sorry, Aria. She's new here,” Josephine apologized. I was tempted to roll my eyes but I didn't. I was already on Aria's bad side, I don't want to make it worse for myself. “You can go. I'll take it from here,” Aria said. I turned on my heels thinking she was referring to me. “Where are you going?” Her question stopped me. “Me?” I asked, pointing at my chest. “No, your ancestors,” she said, sarcasm laced in her voice. “Phinny, you can leave me alone with her. I need to make the rules clear to her,” she said turning to Josephine. “Okay,” Josephine nodded before leaving me alone with Aria. Her rudeness reminds me of Mia. Mia was also blunt and disrespectful when it comes to addressing other people. And that similarity gave me more reasons to be less worried abo

Alpha Liam’s POV“You’re frowning again,” Caleb said as he placed the cup on the table. “If that curse doesn’t kill you, your temper will.”“Your presence alone is enough to hasten my death,” I retorted. At the sound of someone's footsteps, I turned. Jane stepped inside quietly like she wasn’t sure she was welcome. Her hair was loosely tied back, a few strands falling on her face. She looked exactly like what Caleb would describe as a lost puppy who’d wandered into the wrong room.Then her eyes met mine. Immediately, something in her changed. Her shoulders straightened and she lifted her chin. Whatever softness she had walked in with vanished behind the careful composure.“Good morning,” she said politely.Caleb’s eyes lit up in interest.“Well, see who graces us with her presence,” he said in a singsong tone. “A delicate distraction.”I shot him a look. “Nice to meet you again, Caleb.” Jane greeted with a smile.“Our Jane,” Caleb said the name like it was something sweet. “You’re e

Jane’s POVWhatever was going on with alpha Liam was beyond some curse. At this point, it is safe to say he has brain issues too. Sometimes, he acts kind but most times, he acts like someone who is crazy. “Don't talk when I don't ask you too…” How could he say that to me… in Caleb's presence. I was only trying to tell them about Elder Thorne but he made it sound like I was praising his enemy. I pushed the thought aside. Thinking about him always makes me pissed and I don't want to get pissed on a painfully slow day. I was brought here to work for him, but there's literally no work to do. Unlike my former pack where I worked nonstop, alpha Liam's house had less work. And whenever he is out, I have nothing to do.No instructions, no tasks, no arguments to prepare for, just silence.Instead of laying on the bed all morning, I decided to do a fashion show in my room. Josephine gave me some dresses to wear if I'm required to leave the house. So I took them one at a time and tried them o

Alpha Liam’s POVI couldn’t rest. How could I rest when the image of her hands wouldn’t leave my mind?Her fingers were trembling and bleeding but she didn't stop. Why?And that stupid look in her eyes when I entered and how it changed when I scolded her. I paced across my room, my boots striking the floor with strong and restless steps. The fire in the hearth kept burning but it did nothing to warm the irritation burning inside me.Why didn’t she fight for herself? Why didn’t she refuse when Aria asked her?She wasn’t a child, she was an adult for crying out loud. And yet she let Aria push her around like she was nothing.I hated weakness, it makes me mad. But what angered me more was the fact that I saw her hurting herself. A knock came at my door.I didn’t answer.It opened anyway, and Aria stood at the door. Of course, she would come. She stepped inside as if she belonged there, closing the door gently behind her. She wore a short red fitted dress and her hair was loose around
