Breaking the Alpha's curse のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Alpha Liam’s povI saw it. And there was no denying it.The moment I stepped into the room, the first thing that hit me wasn’t the tension in the air… it wasn’t Aria’s growl… it wasn’t even the blood.It was Jane or should I call her Lyra.Her claws were out, her fangs were visible. And for a brief second, the world seemed to freeze around that single image.I was surprised even though I knew I shouldn’t be. Even though Josephine had told me. Even though everything had been pointing toward it.Still, seeing it with my own eyes was something else entirely.I didn’t even look at Aria at all because my eyes were locked on her… On Lyra… On the girl I had been questioning, doubting… accusing.The same girl who now stood in front of me, breathing heavily, staring at her own hands like she didn’t even recognize them.“Look what she did to me!” Aria’s demanding voice snapped me out of my thoughts..For the first time since I entered, I gave her my attention. She stood there, clutching her arm

Alpha Liam’s POVI didn’t expect her to do it. Especially not after everything that had just happened between us. Not after the anger, and the distance she had put between us. Not after she accused me of doing the same thing for selfish reasons. But when she stepped forward… When she closed that space herself and her lips met mine again, everything else disappeared. This time, I didn’t hesitate. I kissed her back. I didn't do it with impulse or confusion. I did it because I had been waiting to do it since the very first time I saw her again in the woods. I slowed my pace, trying to hold back, trying not to push her or overwhelm her. Because she had every reason to pull away again, and I wasn’t about to take that choice from her.But Jane, she didn't stop. She didn't even slow down. If anything, she did it fiercely as if she had been waiting for this moment. I couldn't help but remember the night before she was framed by Aria. If I had known how life would take a different turn, I

Jane’s POVThings had changed.No… That wasn’t enough to describe it.Everything had changed.I could feel it in the air, in the way my body responded to even the smallest movement, in the way my thoughts no longer felt like they belonged to the same girl I used to be.I wasn’t the same Jane.And yet, I still was.That was the confusing part because I knew who I had been. I was the girl who fought to survive. The girl who endured betrayal, rejection, and pain. The girl who kept going even when everything told her to stop.But now, there was something else. Something deeper and powerful. I now have claws, fangs and a peculiar name.Lyra.I still wasn’t used to it and didn't fully understand it, but I wasn’t running away from it anymore. I couldn’t afford to avoid it. If this was who I truly was, then I needed to face it, learn it and control it.Because power without understanding was dangerous, and I had already been through too much to let that happen.“I need to know where I stand,”

Jane’s povWalking into Liam’s study again felt like stepping into a memory I wasn’t sure I wanted to relive.Nothing had changed, and yet… everything had.The same shelves stood tall, filled with books that looked like they had witnessed centuries. The same desk sat at the center, cluttered in a way that only he seemed to understand. Papers resting on each other like a battlefield of books, ink stains marking places where decisions had been made. Even the air felt the same… heavy with tension, and something deeper I couldn’t quite explain.But I wasn’t the same girl who had first walked into this room.Back then, I was scared, lost and unsure of where to stand or what to say.I remembered everything so clearly.The way he had looked at me. The way he had held that whip. The way my heart had nearly leaped out in fear. The way he called me a curse in human form. Now…Now, my heart was still racing, but not for the same reason.This time, the way he looked at me was different. The

Jane’s POV“The book of life isn't a single book?” I voiced my thoughts, unable to hold it in anymore. With everything they had been saying, it wasn't just the truth anymore, it was layers of truth. Secrets buried beneath secrets.As we uncovered one, we found another. And it made everything more complicated. “The Book of Life isn’t just one,” Liam said, his voice steady but serious. “There are five.”Five? My eyes widened in shock as the number echoed in my head.Five books? Five sources of power? Five keys to something much bigger than I could fully understand.“One was with my parents,” he continued. “Which means it’s with me now.”I glanced at him in disbelief. Of course, he had one. He wasn't just carrying the curse from that day, he also had the powerful book. “And one was supposed to be with you,” he added, his eyes shifting to me.“With me?” I shook my head immediately. “I don’t have any book,” I said, almost too quickly. “I don’t even remember anything about it.”That w
