บททั้งหมดของ In Debt To The Ruthless Alpha: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

CLARKI lost track of how many glasses of alcohol I had since earlier. The tropical night had deepened, and my human head was spinning. My fragile tolerance was reaching its peak, so I switched to a glass of chilled pineapple juice for my next order.“You’re not drinking anymore?” John Clark asked curiously, noticing I hadn't ordered another double shot.“Yeah. I’m at my absolute limit,” I replied with a tired smile. We had shared a lot over the last few hours, and under the warmth of the alcohol, I felt comfortable enough to vent. I told him about the suffocating situation I was trapped in with Cadmus—though, of course, I spared the humiliating details about my financial debt and how my own body was essentially

CLARKI woke up to a sharp, agonizing throb behind my eyes. "F*ck," I muttered, forcing my heavy eyelids open as I sat up in bed. My fragile human head felt like it was splitting in two from the brutal hangover.I couldn't even remember how many times I had stumbled out of bed last night to throw up. "Ouch!" I cried out, a sudden ache flaring in my leg as I moved. Panting, I yanked back the blanket to check what was causing the pain.My eyes widened. My thighs were mapped with dark, purple bruises. I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to piece together the blurry fragments of the morning—the clumsy, dizzying moments I had blindly collided with a wooden table and a bench while rushing to the bathroom to vomit. But as my vision cleared, a sudden wave of p

CLARKLuckily, Cadmus didn’t go through with his threat. I didn’t know if my fragile human legs would have even been able to hold my weight if he had followed through with those thirty minutes of “rest.” The pure, unfiltered stamina of an Alpha werewolf was terrifying, and my human body was already pushing its absolute limits.After we shared a quiet, surprisingly normal lunch together on the deck, his dominant demeanor shifted back into focus. He became buried in his laptop again, mentioning he had pack business and territory logistics to finalize. I tried to distract myself by tracking the gentle rhythm of the tides, but it wasn’t long before a restless ache settled deep in my bones.We were lying side by side on the recli

ClarkI woke up to a gentle caress brushing against my cheek. Slowly, I opened my eyes and was met with Cadmus’s handsome face. Fatigue was evident on him, the shadows under his eyes proof of the exhausting pack logistics he’d been managing all day.“Are you hungry? I’m sorry I made you wait,” he greeted me, his deep voice carrying a low, rumbling vibration that thrummed right through the mattress.Something stirred in my heart at his question. How does an Alpha manage to care so much about my condition when he is clearly the more exhausted of the two of us? Is he always this protective with every human he brings into his territory?Deep inside, I hoped I was spec

TRIGGER WARNING! – This chapter contains details about depression, self-harm, anxiety disorder, and r4pe.ClarkEven though every instinct screamed against it, I had no choice but to go with Cadmus to the medical villa where Kate was staying. The pack staff who had approached us at the restaurant hadn't given clear details. All they had managed to stammer out through their panic was that Kate was suffering a severe anxiety attack, her mind fracturing under the weight of her past trauma.We walked in tense, heavy silence toward the villa. Even though we weren’t speaking, Cadmus kept his massive hand wrapped tightly around my arm, his grip possessive and unyielding, as if his wolf was terrified to let me out of his sight. As usual, he continued
