Alle Kapitel von The Alpha's Bodyguard : Kapitel 111 – Kapitel 120

SELENA'S P.O.V I got out of the shower, my skin still a little warm from the steam. The room was still empty. Alpha Cole wasn't back yet. I sat on the edge of the bed, my mind wandering. What if something had happened? What if the call I made yesterday only further ruined things for him? I closed my eyes. I remember waking up sometime before morning. He had been deeply asleep next to me, with the small, satisfied smile resting on his lips in the way that made me feel like he was dreaming about me.Escaping the real life and the problems we still had.I slipped out of bed and went down to the omegas section of the palace. It was a well kept, luxurious place, well enough to make anyone want to stay. Evangeline was awake and already ready to work.I remembered how quickly she had offered up her phone. The recording I had grabbed from the resort room before following Alpha Cole and Alpha Rhys down was still with me, and I silently thanked Alpha Rhys and his perverted fucking mind for

ALPHA COLE'S P.O.V 20 MINUTES AGOI closed the door gently behind me, so Selena wouldn't think I was pissed with her. I was. Maybe a little. But hurt would be the best say to describe it. Seeing her ask for the mate bond reminded me of the fact that she hadn't been there when I woke up that day.Only Evan was. I remember how confusing it had been, knowing the last thing I saw was her, and suddenly, she wasn't the first.I knew Selena. Like the palms of my hand. Something was wrong, and that was why she chose to leave. Evan refused to talk, but once I asked if she felt insecure about the kiss, the look in his eyes gave him away.I let out a small breath. I don't exactly blame her despite how shitty it feels. I broke up with her after our first night together. I wasn't even there to ask her how she felt.Of course, it was going to come back to me. Of course, I was going to pay for it one way or the other.I pushed myself out of the bed and walked towards the shower, shedding my clothe

SELENA'S P.O.V I turned, my chest heaving. I did nothing to stop the tears that ran down my cheeks in slow, fast torrents. I hated myself for putting him through the hell of my own insecurities. Of my own distrust. My fingers gently wrapped around the door knob, and my knees threatened to give away under me. My body felt like it was supposed to belong somewhere else. Somewhere closer to him. I turned the door knob."Selena."My heart jumped, and I turned, my eyes widened with hope. Most of which crumbled the minute I saw his eyes. Still wet. Still exhausted. Still filled with the hurt I put in there.He took a step forward, then gently passed a first aid box, letting it fall to the space between us. I looked down, the tears tearing me apart from somewhere deeper than even I could reach right now."For the bleeding."I bit down on my lower lip so hard that I tasted my blood. Was it too shameless to say sorry? To say I was selfish and greedy and deeply, stupidly sorry, and that I nee

EVAN'S P.O.V.I let my hand rest under Alpha Cole's cheek, his warmth spreading through my palm, his pulse low but evident. A single tear still rested on his lashes, and I resisted the urge to reach out. Not just to his face or his skin. I wanted to reach out to his heart and kiss it a little better in the only way I knew how.But there was only one person that he would allow, and she was next door.I held my breath as I listened. She wasn't crying anymore. Maybe she had slipped into a restless sleep just like him. Maybe she had nothing else to cry out.I felt my heart clench, as my hand sank into his hair. I looked down. He was vulnerable. Not as vulnerable as he was when Selena had been nothing but a callback from the past, but vulnerable still.I leaned down close, my eyes darting across both of his closed ones. He was astoundingly beautiful. It was almost irritating just how perfect he looked under these lights, even with the thin red line that showed just how much the emotional t

SELENA'S P.O.V "Now that we have established that the entire pack will be invited to the two festivals and that the dignitaries will only be around for the main birthday banquet, can we have a full guest list? I have made a short outline of people we absolutely can not miss giving the gold scroll to."The man leaned forward and handed his tablet to Alpha Cole. Alpha Cole accepted it, his brows furrowed as he took in the list. He brought his right index finger and tapped on the screen, then seemed to make a few alterations before handing it back to the man.He accepted it, then looked down. For a tense second, he looked between Alpha Cole and then the rest of the council, who have still not managed to make peace with Alpha Cole's decisions yet."Alpha," the man finally said, his voice low. "Uhm... are you saying that the pack council are not to be invited?"I raised a brow in surprise, as a gasp filled the small space. Isaac leaned dangerously close, his brows drawn together in the so
