《The Alpha's Chosen 》全部章節：第 121 章 - 第 130 章

FELIX No one teaches Omegas what it means to feel everything.It’s like standing in a room and taking in every emotion at once. Not just your own. Everyone’s. It slips into you without warning. Small pieces of feelings that were never yours to begin with. It doesn’t make sense at first. It takes time before you even understand what’s happening.It’s easy to lose control of it.Someone nearby has a bad day, and suddenly you feel irritated for no clear reason. You walk past a stranger, and their happiness sticks to you. You find yourself smiling, humming along to a song, feeling something that isn’t yours.You have to learn to sort it out.You have to learn what belongs to you and what doesn’t.That takes time. It takes effort. And even then, it’s not perfect.It’s worse when it’s someone you care about.You can’t shut that out. You can’t block it.Their pain doesn’t stay outside. It pushes in deeper. It settles into your chest and refuses to leave.Zara’s pain is harder than mine.

CALEB I stand by the window in the lounge, watching the Alpha and his Betas waiting outside our gates. They stand in a loose line, calm and patient, like they have all the time in the world. The sight of them makes the air in the room feel heavier.The room has been quiet since the kid fell asleep. Too quiet.His mother came in after speaking to the witch and carried him out. He didn’t stir at all. She said she was taking him upstairs to settle him in a room.He had been out cold for a while, so it made sense. Still, something about the way she held him...tight, careful, sticks in my mind.I asked if she needed help finding a room. It felt strange that Damian told her to go without sending someone with her. He doesn’t usually leave things like that to chance.She said Lee had offered to show her a room near theirs. That made sense.Better for the kid to be close to them. Safer. Easier to keep an eye on.There’s no way Damian would put them anywhere near us. Not with everything going

ZARA Holly looks past me, her eyes shifting over my shoulder. The change in her expression makes me turn.Caleb and Damian are right behind me. Both of them are only half dressed, like they dropped everything the moment I ran out. Their clothes hang loose, unfinished, like they didn’t bother thinking it through. They were ready to shift. Ready to run.The relief on their faces hits me hard. It mirrors my own. For a second, I almost let myself feel it.Almost.But I stop myself.It’s too early to feel safe. Too early to think this is over.I turn back to Holly and Naomi.“She was asleep before she came out here, I think,” Naomi says when Holly doesn’t speak right away. Her voice is steady, but there’s tension under it. “She’s been saying random things since we found her. Nothing clear. But she’s not hurt. I don’t know if she was sleepwalking, or if she woke up confused and wandered out.”“She doesn’t sleepwalk,” Holly says quickly. There’s no doubt in her voice. “She never has. But I

FELIX The drive to my new home feels tight and uncomfortable. The air itself feels wrong. I’m stuck in the backseat beside a large, silent Beta, Gruff, and the car smells strange. I can’t even place the smell. It is sharp and sour at the same time. It burns my nose and makes my eyes water. It keeps setting me off. I sneeze again and again like I suddenly have allergies.Each time I sneeze, Gruff shoots me a hard look. His jaw tightens like he is holding something back. He looks just as annoyed as I feel surprised.“I think I’m allergic to something in this car,” I say without thinking. My voice sounds louder than I mean it to.“You’ll keep quiet unless you want to find out if you’re allergic to my fists,” Gruff mutters beside me. His voice is low and steady, like he means it.“Knuckle sandwiches are actually pretty good,” I reply. The words come out before I can stop them, and I regret it right away.He lets out a low growl, deep in his chest, and I tense up. My shoulders pull in a

ZARA Agatha doesn’t sound happy when she finally answers my call.It takes longer than I expected just to reach her. Hours pass after we track Felix and confirm he’s in Granite Valley. Even then, the Conclave of Mystics only gives me a strict five-minute window to speak with her. No more. She wasn’t exaggerating about how busy she is.“Please don’t tell me you’ve come up with another excuse to clear your guilty boyfriend.”Her tone is sharp, already tired of me.Of course she still believes he did it. She showed us a vision before, clear and certain in her mind. To her, that should have been the end of it. She isn’t used to being doubted, and I can hear the strain in her voice.“I’m sorry for taking more of your time,” I say, forcing myself to stay calm. “I’ll keep this quick. Tara left a note with her child before she ran. She lied to you because she’s scared. In the note, she says her Alpha has already sold Felix. I can send you a picture of it....”“No.”The word hits hard. My
