30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King The Place I Choose To Die
~Lucian’s POV~ I woke to the sound of dripping water. For a few moments, I couldn’t remember where I was. Everything hurt. My back rested against cold stone. My muscles felt as though they had been beaten with iron clubs, and every breath scraped painfully through my chest. I closed my eyes again, hoping to drift away. A violent cough tore through me before I could. Pain exploded beneath my ribs. I bent forward, coughing until something warm filled my mouth. Blood splattered onto the cave floor in dark crimson drops. I stared at it for a long time. There was more than yesterday, or perhaps it only looked that way. I no longer knew how many days had passed. One ? Three? The sunlight reaching the cave entrance told me it was afternoon, but that was all I knew. Time had become meaningless. Another cough shook my body. When it finally eased, I leaned my head against the rough stone behind me and closed my eyes. “So,” I muttered bitterly, “this is how it ends.” A soft snort answe
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King Beyond Blackstone
I smiled despite everything. For the first time since Lucian disappeared, I didn’t feel completely alone. “Thank you,” I said quietly. “Don’t thank me yet.” Thorne adjusted the reins in his hands. “Wait until we actually find him.” His words carried confidence. But the tightness in his jaw betrayed him. He was afraid too. We guided the horses quietly out of the stable. The fortress slept around us. Its walls were bathed in pale moonlight. Every shadow made my heart pound. If a single guard spotted us now, Elara would never allow us to leave. The cold night air rushed against my face. “This is as far as I go,” Jace said. I looked at him. “Thank you.” He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. “You already saved my life once.” “I haven’t forgotten.” For a moment, none of us spoke. Then Jace’s expression grew serious. “Be careful Cressida” “I will,” I whispered. I prayed it wasn’t a promise I couldn’t keep. Thorne urged his horse forward first. I
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King The Search Begins
Sleep never came. I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling, listening to the distant footsteps of guards patrolling the fortress walls. Every time I closed my eyes, the seer’s voice echoed in my head. Lucian was out there somewhere beyond Blackstone’s walls, and every passing hour brought him closer to death. My fingers slipped beneath the pillow until they brushed the smooth obsidian stone. I pulled it into the moonlight spilling through the window. Its dark surface gleamed softly. “Perhaps it will witness the last,” the words echoed inside me. When I first heard them, I thought she meant the last Alpha King. Now I wasn’t so sure. I turned the stone over in my hand. It had witnessed the First Alpha King’s grief. It had witnessed the bargain. It had witnessed generations of suffering. I refused to let it witness Lucian’s death. Waiting inside these walls wasn’t going to save him. Praying wasn’t going to save him. Crying certainly wasn’t. I had to find him. The realiz
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King The Disappearance of the Alpha King
I forced my legs to move again. By the time I reached the outer gate, I was breathing hard, my lungs burning from the hurried journey back. The guards turned the moment they saw me and stared in disbelief, their eyes widening with shock and relief. Then one shouted, “She’s back!” The cry spread through the village like wildfire. “Lady Cressida has returned!” Soon I was surrounded by relieved faces, some reaching out as if to confirm I was truly there. I hadn’t expected anyone to notice my absence, yet their concern touched something deep inside me. A young guard hurried forward, his face pale with exhaustion. “My lady, thank the Moon Goddess.” He glanced nervously toward the fortress. “You have to go right now. They’re about to execute the gate guards from the night you disappeared.” The words stole my breath. “What?” My blood turned cold as he explained in a shaking voice that Elara had ordered their deaths for failing to keep me safe during wartime. They were already
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King Racing Against Death
For a long moment, I simply stood there, staring at the empty chair. My eyes searched every corner of the little hut. The wooden beams overhead felt heavier in the silence. Dust floated lazily in the slanted rays of morning light that pierced the small windows. The kettle continued to simmer over the low fire. Soft bubbles rose steadily, releasing soothing waves of mint and lavender that wrapped around the room like a gentle embrace. Everything was exactly the same as before I turned around. Everything except her. “Hello?” I called cautiously. My voice sounded small and uncertain against the quiet. No answer came back. I stepped farther inside, my boots scraping softly on the worn floorboards. The sound felt too loud in the stillness. I expected her to step out from behind a curtain or from another room, but there wasn’t another room. A strange feeling settled over me. It crept along my spine like cold mist. Maybe she hadn’t disappeared at all. Maybe she had simply de
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King Seven Days To Save The King
The fire continued to crackle softly between us, but I barely heard it anymore.Eight days.The words echoed inside my mind until they lost all meaning. I stared into the flames, hoping they would somehow arrange themselves into a different answer. Eight days wasn’t enough time to end a war. It wasn’t enough time to find a king during a war. It wasn’t enough time to save the man I loved from a curse that had haunted his bloodline for generations.Across from me, the old woman quietly picked up my empty cup and poured more tea as though nothing extraordinary had happened. Her movements were slow and steady, completely untouched by the storm raging inside me.The sweet scent of herbs drifted through the little hut.I couldn’t understand how everything around us could remain so peaceful when my entire world had just fallen apart.My hands wrapped around the warm cup without thinking. They were trembling so badly that the tea rippled against the sides.“I have to go.”The words escaped b
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King 2. From Nothing to Slave
Before I could utter a single word, the stranger turned and gave a sharp nod. “Take her.” Rough hands dragged me forward. I twisted and struggled, but it was useless against their iron grips. “No—please! Let me go!” I was completely ignored and dragged through the dark woods back toward my pack.
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King 1. From Mate to Nothing
Cressida’s POV I stood frozen outside the door, the thin crack revealing a scene that shattered my world. Alpha Kael’s deep, guttural moans filled the room as he thrust into her with raw, punishing force. My best friend Zara clawed at his back, her legs wrapped tightly around his waist. “Yes!
30 Days With The Ruthless Alpha King 9. Elara’s Secret
~Cressida The night before had been full of passion and desire, the kind that left me breathless and aching in the best ways. I was starting to get used to it. To like it. Lucian inside me, the low growl in his throat when he pulled me closer—those memories lingered like a secret warmth as I st

Zara’s POV I woke up on the cold, dirty floor of the slave prison. My back burned like fire from the silver whip marks. Two nights had passed, but I was still not fully healed. Every small movement sent sharp pain through my body. I forced myself to sit up anyway. The other slaves kept their di
