Reclaimed by the Alpha I forgot のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

I peeped through the window; the sky appeared a lighter shade of indigo, the stars and the moon still visible. There’s a chill in the air, the low thrumming of the radiator running in the background. It made me tug my jacket tighter, knees bouncing against the desk. My frame hunched over the book, lips parting to suck as much air as possible. The door chime rang. I only caught a glimpse of the familiar face, a flash of a familiar cap, before orange violently erupted across my vision. As I tried to stand up hastily, I stumbled and crashed into a chair, barely biting back a cry of pain.“Lily?” I heard the familiar voice, sounding worried. Locking the bathroom door, I rubbed my forehead roughly. “I’m fine!”I double-checked that the door was firmly locked before retreating to the farthest side of the bathroom. Not like it was a huge space, but there’s some comfort in shoving into the corner and feeling like there’s something to stabilise me.Eventually, I could feel my vision clearing,

Mate. Mine. Anne. Those words kept swirling around, accompanied by the sharp throbbing in the back of my neck. The Alpha had been so sure, so firm in his resolve as he kept boring his eyes into my skin. I slumped on the nearest chair, staring at his retreating down the stairs. Silence blanketed the room, neither of us attempting to break the quiet, unsettled air that moved around. Carter still stood firm by the door, his eyes guarded and shoulders squared in a line. There was a tick in his jaw muscle, as he kept flickering his attention towards the stairs and the room. Pressing the heel of my hand against my temple, feeling the familiar dull throb already building, I let out a huge sigh. I peeked at Oliver, his body still rooted to the spot, worry etched so deep onto his face that he suddenly appeared a lot older than he is.“Oliver?”“Lily…” He exhaled, turning over, shoulders sagging in defeat. “Forgive me. I should have called the guards…That was…a lot.”“It’s not your fault…No

“Renee messaged. She wants me to cover her morning shift.” I said, already rushing to the door. Carter and Oliver were huddled together, now moved to the old shelf against the wall. A few minutes after Alpha Sebastian hastily made an exit, he texted Oliver about postponing the meeting. There was no particular time as to when only that he shall be contacting him soon. It only made dread settle in my stomach at the uncertainty of not knowing.“Again?” Carter said with a hint of disapproval. The beta always made it seem like she was taking advantage of my kindness. “Something came up?” My palm felt sweaty against the doorknob as I twisted it loose. “Be back soon.”“Be careful,” I heard the beta call out, voice rising in urgency when I didn’t give him a response. I shut the door, the nerves engulfing me as soon as they are out of sight, feet shuffling towards the front door. There was a flurry of motion before a tiny body came barreling towards me, making me stagger. A startled laugh e

“I missed you!” Sebastian leaned forward to capture my lips in an aggressive, dominating kiss that had me groaning into his mouth without realizing. The action only made him grab onto my waist, and with a swift movement, he moved me into his lap. We parted for a bit before he recaptured my mouth, sliding his tongue into mine, my body melting into him, wrapping my arms around his neck.His hands were rough as they slid up my sides, pushing the shirt up so he could trail the tips of his fingers along my skin. I shuddered, goosebumps breaking out on my skin from the pleasant, almost ghost-like feeling, and I sighed into his mouth. “Omega…” He slowly latched his lips to my chin, pressing a kiss there before leaving burning trails along my jaw, sucking on the spot under my ear until my toes curled. I shivered as his hands slid down my thighs that bracketed his hips, and then he was standing. My arms tightened around his neck and hitched my legs up to crisscross against his back as he car

Part 9Panic bubbled in my chest, eyes shifting around the room and towards the stairs. Arlo. He’s sleeping and will be for several hours, but it still didn't settle the nerves inside. Another knock echoed. I exhaled, hands tightening on the doorknob as I pulled it open.On the other side, Sebastian stood tall and large, taking up much of the frame on the porch, his shoulders squared. From the look on his face, I could realise that it was going to be a long conversation. “We need to talk.”No greeting. No polite words. A command. Careless and Alpha-like. Any other emotion I was feeling drained from my body to make room for the boiling-hot rage that filled me from head to toe. Pasting on a friendly smile through gritted teeth, I relaxed my shoulders with one hand propped casually against my hip.“Hello, Alpha Sebastian. Sorry, this is not a good time. Good night.” I said it in a tone as saccharine as I could muster.Before I could fully shut the door on his face, he wedged a foot bet
