All Chapters of Alpha's Dirty Little Secret : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

JasmineI'll break his bones. Limb from limb.I sat at the head of the polished conference table, but my mind remained trapped on the cold pavement outside the school gates, replaying Garrett’s parting threat.Sebastian’s Zeta had explained the sudden security detail that had appeared earlier that morning. After Garrett’s violent outburst at the summit the night before, Sebastian had insisted I shouldn't move around unprotected. The guards were instructed to maintain a respectful distance and had been quietly tailing me today as instructed, but I stared out the floor-to-ceiling glass panel with a deepening scowl.How much security was truly sufficient to keep a man like Garrett Grayson away?His blood feud with Blizzard, combined with my sudden presence at Sebastian's side, had clearly pushed him over the edge. A tight knot of anxiety twisted in my stomach for Sebastian. While Garrett was bound to discover eventually that Sebastian and I were family rather than lovers, I doubted the t

Garrett“Expelled? What do you mean expelled? How on earth does a child get expelled from kindergarten?”The sheer absurdity of it was beyond staggering.​"As I stated, Alpha Grayson," Mrs. Preston said, her tone unfazed, "this institution maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy for physical violence, no matter how big or how small."​I threw a sharp glance sideways at Jasmine. Her chest was heaving under her fitted blouse, her nose flushed a faint, delicate pink as she glared at me with raw, unfiltered hatred. I was still mad—furious, even. I knew I had a dark reputation across the territories, and it stung like hell that she had rubbed my past directly into my face. But my son was different.Elroy was pure.He was the only good, untainted thing in this damn world. I nearly snarled aloud at the thought of anyone dragging him into my own dark past.​"I just want to see my son," I muttered, my voice dropping into a tense whisper. "He got hurt. He has a black eye."Mrs. Preston blinked

GarrettI went after Jasmine without thinking.My hand closed around her shoulder and I spun her hard, pinning her back against the wall. Her eyes went wide for half a second. I didn’t fully understand why I had done it, only that the sudden desperate need to hold her had taken over. Pinned like this, it almost felt like old times. Back when she used to look up at me as if I were the only thing that mattered.Back then, when I had her against the wall of my study, those same eyes used to burn with hunger. She used to beg me to take her.Now they burned with pure, unfiltered anger.“Garrett, what the fuck?!” she snapped.I frowned. The word sounded wrong coming from her. “I never knew you cursed.”“There’s a whole lot about me you know nothing about, Garrett,” she spat, shoving at my chest hard enough that I had to shift my weight. “And keep your hands to yourself. I am not your property anymore.”“Jasmine,” I sighed.“What is it this time?” She yanked herself free as if my touch had b

JasmineMy daughter's eyes were staring directly at me, wide. She was already neatly dressed in her sharp little school uniform, her small, cold hands still resting against my cheeks."Was Elroy's dad bullying you?""No... no," I stammered, my heart leaping into my throat as I jerked fully awake and sat up in bed. "You... you heard wrong, honey."My pulse was hammering heavily. I scrambled to assemble a string of flimsy, desperate excuses, my face burning with a fiery shame as I tried to distract her by bringing up her favorite chocolate chip pancakes. Thankfully, her nanny stepped into the room right on cue, lifting Zoey into her arms and carrying her out toward the sunlit hallway.Once the door clicked shut, the artificial energy drained out of me. I collapsed back against the plush headboard, burying my burning face in my trembling hands.What kind of wanton woman was I?The dream had felt so terrifyingly, violently real. My skin still prickled with a hyper-sensitive ache, as if his

Garrett"Alpha Garrett, are you listening?"The sharp, persistent voice finally dragged me back to the present. I tore my gaze away from the floor-to-ceiling glass window of my office, turning slowly to face my Beta, Knox, and the room full of waiting executives."Yes," I lied smoothly, my tone laced with a quiet, lethal calm.In truth, I had gotten completely lost in my own head. I was far more irritable today, driven by an agonizing, suffocating restlessness. I’d spent long hours pacing in my wolf form, taking out my frustration on the training grounds—nearly beating up more than half my Gamma team under the guise of morning drills.I was boiling, raw and unhinged, and I had been that way since yesterday. Her words kept echoing again and again in my mind, clawing at my sanity.Jasmine.I growled her name under my breath. Whenever I tried to close my eyes, I saw it—nameless, faceless men reaching out for her. Touching her. She looked like a helpless lamb surrounded by predators, stan
