CHAPTER 46: IT'S COMPLICATED

ADRIAN:

Stepping into the room and finding Elena in heat, my blood wasn't just boiling; it was turning into pure, molten lava. Every instinct I had—every ounce of Alpha dominance I’d cultivated over the years—was currently being drowned out by the biological siren song radiating off Elena. She was in heat, and my wolf, Fenris, was absolutely losing his mind. He was pacing inside my chest, scratching at my ribs, howling for me to mate with her, to claim her, to fini

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    ADRIAN'S PANIC ATTACK

    CHAPTER 92: ADRIAN'S PANIC ATTACK ELENA:I limped all the way back to the master suite, picking dead leaves and dry grass out of my hair with trembling fingers. Every muscle in my back felt like it had been shredded. My face was throbbing, and I could taste the copper tang of blood in my mouth from where my lip had split.The moment I stepped into the room, I didn't go and lie down on the bed. I headed straight for the bathroom and stripped off my ruined clothes. I needed the heat. I turned the shower handle until the water was scalding, letting the steam fill the room until it was thick enough to choke on.I sat down on the floor of the shower, letting the hot water hammer against my back. I grabbed a thick towel, soaked it in the hot water, and began dabbing at my bruises. Every time the wet, searing cloth hit a tender spot, I sucked in a sharp breath. The pain was brutal—it ate right into my bruised flesh like acid—but I didn't cower. I didn't cry. Each jolt of agony just fueled t

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    I WANT PURITY

    CHAPTER 91: I WANT PURITY ELENA:I glanced around the council hall, trying to read the faces of the elders. Before, the elders had been loud, opinionated, and downright hostile toward me. Now, after I’d let that sliver of my true power ripple through the room, the elders remained subdued for the rest of the meeting. They practically agreed with whatever suggestions Adrian presented before them concerning the Blackwood Pack affairs.It wasn’t that we were controlling their minds—just that Adrian felt this was the time to establish our authority as the power couple we were about to become, a couple the council could no longer undermine or trifle with. Adrian laid out all the agendas for the day. The entire council seemed to agree with whatever decisions he made. Or wanted to make. Then the last agenda he presented before the council was my crowning. He wanted me crowned, and he wanted it done as soon as possible.And this was the only time the elders felt there was a need to argue. E

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    TAPPING INTO HER POWERS

    CHAPTER 90: TAPPING INTO HER POWERS ELENA:“Let's do this.”As soon as those words left my mouth, the seer began by chanting words that sounded like thunder rolling in the distance. She reached into the fire, pulling out a glowing, molten-looking stone that pulsed with a rhythm exactly like a heartbeat. She pressed it directly against my forehead, right over where the golden crescent mark should be.The pain didn't just hurt; it was an absolute violation of my being.It started as a pinprick of heat behind my eyes, then exploded outward. It felt like someone was pouring molten lead through my veins. Every nerve ending in my body caught fire at the exact same time. I tried to scream, but the sound was strangled in my throat as my soul felt like it was being ripped out of my skin and shoved back in. I hit the floor, arching my back, my fingers digging into the dirt. I saw visions—flashes of ancient wars, the face of the Moon Goddess, and the crushing weight of mountains. I screamed unt

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    LET'S DO IT

    CHAPTER 89: LET'S DO ITELENA:The sky was still grey with pre-dawn when we left. I didn't know where we were going, only that the engine of the SUV hummed with a purpose that left my pulse racing. We drove for over an hour, leaving the familiar sprawling borders of the Blackwood territory behind and plunging into the dense, overgrown wilderness of the deep forest.​When the car finally rolled to a stop, the silence was absolute. The forest here felt older, heavier, as if the trees themselves were watching us. Adrian stepped out and reached for my hand, his grip firm and grounding.​"Trust me," he whispered, his eyes scanning the shadows. "Don't be afraid. Whatever you see in there, stay close to me."​I nodded, my pulse racing. We walked for what felt like miles, the path narrowing until it was just a trail of moss and gnarled roots. Just as I was about to ask if we were lost, we stumbled into a clearing. Standing in the middle of a grove of ancient, twisted oaks was a structure that

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    IT'S FOR OUR FUTURE

    CHAPTER 88: IT'S FOR OUR FUTURE ADRIAN:I didn't take any chances. I moved Elena to a secure, windowless suite on the lowest level of the pack house—a room so fortified and hidden underground that not even my own guards knew which door led to it. She was still shivering, the echo of those gunshots and the shattering glass clearly replaying in her mind. Every time a floorboard creaked or a shadow shifted, she’d flinch, her body tightening against mine like a coiled spring.​"I've got you," I whispered, pulling the heavy blankets up around our shoulders. "They can't reach you here. No one can."​But she couldn't settle. Her heart was beating a frantic, terrified rhythm against my chest. To pull her out of that nightmare, I knew I had to give her something else to focus on—something consuming, something that would remind her she was alive, safe, and right here with me.​I turned her face toward mine, my hands cupping her cheeks. I didn't rush. I leaned in, catching her bottom lip betwee

  • BOUND TO THE ENEMY ALPHA    A SUDDEN ATTACK

    CHAPTER 87: A SUDDEN ATTACKADRIAN:Purity’s smirk in the forest hadn't been just arrogance—it had been a warning. Something was rotten in the state of Denmark, and I knew it. The moment we got back to the pack house, I didn't even give Elena a chance to settle in. I sent her off to the suite and summoned Clement to my study, my blood boiling with the need for answers."I want you to do some digging, Clement," I ordered, my voice cold enough to freeze hell over. "Track Purity’s movements for the last month. Every meeting, every phone call, every cent spent. I want the truth."Clement didn't waste time. He nodded, then disappeared, and for close to an hour, I paced the floor, my mind replaying Purity’s taunt about Elena needing to win that famous traditional battle with the strongest female warrior before she can be crowned Luna. About an hour later, Clement returned but his face looked pale."Alpha," he started, his voice hushed. "Purity hasn't just been playing games. She’s been sell

    CHAPTER 22: LET'S MAINTAIN A STRICK BOUNDARY ELENA:It was such an awkward moment, especially when Adrian’s fingers made contact with my nipples, it felt like a bolt of electricity shot straight down my spine. My entire nervous system completely melted, and my body started acting so weird. It was

    CHAPTER 20: CAN I TEACH YOU HOW TO KISS?ELENA:I stared at the bowl of ice cream a maid delivered to my room some minutes ago and smiled. Ever since that disaster on the training field where my body completely gave out from those stupid push-ups, Adrian had been acting... different. The total jerk

My head was pounding, and my skin felt gritty from all the little activities th

It was time to stop playing games and just give it to her straight the way it is."Look, Purity," I s
