All Chapters of The Hot Alpha’s Curvy Craving : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Chapter 41 Harland She grabbed the front of my shirt and pulled me closer. I pushed a finger inside her and felt her clench around it. Her hips rolled once, then again. I added a second finger and curled them the way I had imagined earlier, searching for the spot that would make her thighs shake. Her head dropped forward against my shoulder and she breathed hard against my neck, trying to stay quiet even though no one else was awake to hear.“Like that,” she whispered. “Don’t stop.”I did not stop. I worked her slow and steady, mouth still on the marks, tongue tracing the dark lines while my fingers moved inside her. Her thighs tightened around my wrist. The soft heavy weight of her breast pressed against my chest every time she shifted. I felt her getting closer, the way her walls fluttered, the way her breath turned into short broken sounds she tried to swallow. When she came it was quiet but hard, her whole body locking up around my hand, thighs shaking, forehead pressed to my sh

Chapter 43 Kellan I heard the bathroom door open and I stopped breathing. Every muscle in me locked up while I waited to see which way her feet would go. Left meant the guest room. Right meant back to me. I had my eyes half open in the dark tracking the soft sound of her moving and I was already writing the whole speech in my head about trust and how if she walked down that hall right now I was done pretending this was just a rough patch. My hand was still on the sheet where her waist had been and the spot was going cold and that cold was making me meaner by the second.She turned right.I let the air out slow through my nose so she would not hear how hard I had been holding it. The mattress dipped when she climbed back in. She did not touch me at first. Just lay there on her side facing away like she needed a second to decide if she was allowed to settle. I kept my breathing even and deep so she would think I was still out. Part of me wanted to call her on it. The bigger part of m

Chapter 45 Sophia I heard Kellan say it like it was nothing.“Maybe I should just mark you myself and get it over with.”The words sat in the dark between us. I went completely still. Nothing about that suggestion felt romantic anymore. It felt heavy and final, like he was trying to solve a problem that was not only his to solve. My skin still burned from the marks and the fever, but none of that made the idea of his teeth in my neck sound like safety. It sounded like another claim stacked on top of one that already existed.I kept my eyes on the ceiling for a second, then turned my head toward him.“I already have a mate,” I said. “Ryder. The bond is still there even if he walked away from it. You do not get to put something permanent on me while that is true.”His face changed right away. The softness that had been there when he was watching the marks disappeared. His jaw set and his eyes went hard in the low light.“Ryder rejected you,” he said. “That is not the same thing as hav

Chapter 47 Sophia Kellan walked in while I was still standing in the doorway, wet hair dripping onto the roses. He did not speak at first. He just looked at the bed he prepared, then at me, and the silence stretched until it felt deliberate.I stayed right where I was. Water ran down the back of my neck and soaked into the collar of the clean shirt I had put on after the bath. The roses smelled strong in the closed room. The diamonds caught what little light came from the hallway. The money box sat in the middle like it was waiting for me to open it or throw it. He did not move closer. He shut the door behind him with a quiet click and leaned against it for a second like he needed the wood to hold him up.“You went all out,” I said. My voice came out flat. “Roses. Diamonds. Cash. Wine. What is this supposed to fix?”He pushed off the door and took two steps into the room. Still not touching anything. Still not touching me.“I know it does not fix it,” he said. “I know that. I just…

Chapter 59 Sophia Kellan went completely still the second the words left my mouth. His eyes locked on mine and stayed there, and I could see him understand exactly what I was doing. I was throwing the insult right back at him. I was testing whether he would take what I offered now that he had to look at the body he had called too fat for Ryder. I kept my legs open and waited for him to move, waited for him to prove the words or take them back with his mouth. Instead he stayed on his knees among the crushed roses and the scattered diamonds and said, “No. Not like this.”The refusal hit harder than if he had just climbed on top of me and used me. My stomach dropped. Heat that had nothing to do with the fever rushed up my neck and into my face. I stared at him like he had slapped me.“What the hell does that mean?” My voice came out sharper than I meant it to. “You put the roses here. You put the diamonds here. You got on your knees. And now you look at me offering myself and you say
