ALPHA PRINCE’S FORBIDDEN DESIRE
Lenora Monroe left behind a dark past, but no matter how far she runs, the shadows follow her.
Starting anew as a college professor, she believes she’s finally found a safe haven—until a night of drinks leads to her meeting Elijah North. Golden-eyed, arrogant and charming, Elijah ignites something in her that leads to her making a spur of the moment decision. Her life is tossed into chaos when she realises that the man she just spent the night with was not only her student, but the son of the Alpha, a man she was now indebted to.
Bound by a bond neither can explain or deny, their relationship is forbidden, dangerous, and intoxicating. The two are forced to the realities their forbidden relationship, the drama that comes with it as well as the demons that plague them.
With her past colliding with his power-hungry family, Lenora and Elijah find themselves trapped in a web of tension, dominance, and desire. Every stolen moment ignites passion—and every confrontation pushes them closer to the edge of destruction.
In a world where control is everything, can they fight for a love meant to be forbidden? Or will their desires tear them apart?

Chapter: 67| LENORA As awed as I was by the sight before me—the sea of wildflowers stretching into the horizon, catching the golden light like something out of a dream—I couldn’t help but notice that Elijah had gone still. Not with wonder, but with a strange, distant vacancy. His body was here, but something in his eyes… wasn’t. I looked down at him from where he held me. “Are you okay?” He didn’t answer right away. His gaze remained fixed on the field, his features emptied of the emotion that had softened it ever since we left the library. There was a beat of silence, then, slowly, he nodded and bent to set me down. The flowers swayed gently beneath my feet, brushing my shins like whispers. The earth was soft—unlike the sharp stones and hard paths I’d expected. I glanced down at the delicate blooms, admiring the colour and fragileness of them. I looked up to say something to Elijah, but when I turned back to look for him—he was gone. Not entirely. Just… walking away. “Elijah!” I called out, hea

Chapter: 66| ELIJAH“You’re driving?” I heard Lenora ask from behind me. I only turned my head to the side slightly as I replied, “Yeah, it’s kinda far.” I heard her mumble something under her breath, and a smile almost graced my lips—almost. There was silence for a moment… then, “Should I be worried?” This time, I chuckled and turned around fully, regretting the action almost immediately. I could still feel the heat of her palm cradled in mine, and with her looking like that—her dark hair loose and curly, falling all over her shoulders—it was taking the little self-control I had left not to grab that hand again, yank her to me, and make a mess of what was left of her lipstick. It was such a fucking ridiculous idea to hold her hand. Lenora’s eyebrow jumped up, and she reached up to push back the errant strands of her hair that fell across her face. In the process, the collar of her shirt shifted, and I caught sight of her mark again. Irritation filled my throat. “I’m not going to hu

Chapter: 65| LENORA With the gala drawing closer and closer, I had less and less time to do anything other than sit through faculty ‘meetings’ that were really just a congregation of Evelyn’s most devout followers swapping basic ideas and acting like it was groundbreaking. Anytime someone other than her dared to speak, they were shut down explicitly—but none more so than me.Though I was silenced rather rudely most of the time, I was also the one forced to run most of the errands and do all the actual planning. When I asked why, an older professor looked me dead in the eyes and said it was because I was the newest addition to the faculty, therefore it was only right.And who was I to argue?I did as asked—made calls, ran around campus, juggled my classes and sessions with Elijah—all while enduring every backhanded comment with gritted teeth. And yet, as expected, there was no gratitude. Not from the faculty members, and certainly not from the Dean, who nitpicked everything I did.In short, I was tired. T

Chapter: 64| ELIJAH I was out of pills again. I pulled out the top drawer in my room and yanked out the pill bottle, scowling when I found it empty. With a curse, I threw it atop the many other bottles and took a step back, falling onto my bed. Luka had come an hour ago to grab his things. I’d considered using that time to talk to him and take Burke’s advice to “fix” it, but I’d ended up just hiding in my room while he and Neil packed. When they were done, Luka left immediately, and Neil stopped by my room to tell me in a small voice that they were leaving. He also told me about Luka’s recent issues with his father. When Neil left, I’d walked out to see what was left of Luka’s room—and it was almost nothing. A few of his clothes were still there. A few t-shirts, a pair of sneakers, a watch, a couple empty notebooks. But none of the things that really made the space his. Not the weird cactus-shaped lamp, not the horror movie posters he used to tape onto the wall with surgical precision, not the worn-o

Chapter: 63| ELIJAHBurke didn’t keep me in his office for much longer. Since I’d skipped previous practices and team meetings, he gave me a basic rundown for the next month—information I should’ve already known as captain. Information he’d already shared with the others.The faculty gala was coming up and, as usual, on the final day there would be a football game between our school and another college from our pack. Burke handed me the papers detailing the plays, then gave me the kind of scolding that didn’t raise his voice but somehow still made me feel ten inches tall.I took it. Quietly.After everything, I deserved worse. Any other coach would have had me kicked off the team given how often I missed practice. Before letting me go, he handed me a bottle of iced coffee—cold enough that condensation slid over my fingers—and muttered, “Fix things with Luka. Whatever the hell’s going on, it’s not helping either of you to be at odds.”I didn’t say anything in response, mostly because I didn’t know if I c

Chapter: 62| ELIJAHAnd deal with it, I did. Football practice was over, and after a short speech, Coach Burke dismissed us… or, well—everyone except me. I stayed behind, dragging my feet across the dew-damp grass as the others dispersed with laughter and shoulder bumps. I could hear Hunter’s voice somewhere in the distance, too loud and too smug. I ignored it. Coach Burke’s office was the only place on campus that felt remotely like a safe space. Cluttered with the smell of sweat, old wood, and varnished leather, it was messy in a way that didn’t ask anything of me. I stepped inside and took a long breath. The shelves were still lined with trophies from generations before me, with faded photographs of former players pinned up like aging ghosts. Medals, ribbons, a cracked hockey puck with someone’s initials carved into it—everything was packed in there. The couch was more of a suggestion than an actual seat. I opted for the chair in front of his desk, nudging aside a stray basketball with the toe

Chapter: 11: Compensation When Sabrina’s eyes fluttered open, the first thing she felt was a stab of pain in her temples and a soreness between her thighs.“Fuck,” she muttered, sitting up and rubbing a hand over her eyes, trying to soothe the ache spreading through her skull.When she dropped her palm, she frowned, scanning the unfamiliar room with growing confusion. The confusion quickly turned into panic when she looked down and realized she was—without a doubt—naked. Her pale skin was littered with red marks, suspiciously resembling hickeys.What exactly happened last night?Yanking the blanket higher over her chest, she frantically searched the room for clues, racking her brain for any memories. But she was drawing a significant blank.She remembered returning to Archwood Mansion—her father’s accusations, the slap across her face, the humiliation of being thrown out. Checking into the hotel, the bar…Her memories of the bar were hazy, fragmented at best, and at some point, they just faded to black.Her mo

Chapter: 10: In a Dark Room“Who are—?” Before the words could slip out, a warm hand wrapped around her wrist and yanked her inside. The door slammed shut behind her. Even in her inebriated state, something sharp and cold sliced through the haze of alcohol. Panic. She didn’t know anyone else on this floor. The rooms were soundproofed. If something happened, no one would hear her screams and even if they did… would they care? “Hey!” Sabrina wrenched her hand free, stumbling back, her gait unsteady. The man didn’t move. He just watched her, his eyes and most of his face hidden in the shadows of the darkened room, but she didn’t need to see them to feel the weight of his stare. Her pulse pounded in her ears as she forced her spine straight. “What are you doing in my room?” She looked around surreptitiously for something to defend herself with, but the room was barely illuminated by the moonlight and nothing more. In her short scan of the room, something about the space around her felt off. Maybe if she were

Chapter: 9: Room 206?Sabrina wasn’t sure how long she sat there crying, but eventually, her tears dried up, and the rain stopped, leaving behind only a pounding headache and the scent of damp earth. She knew she had to leave before her father actually followed through on his threat to call the police.She opened the envelope Reliana had given her and managed to salvage $900—enough to book a cab and find a cheap hotel room for a few nights. What would happen once the money ran out? Sabrina didn’t know, but that was a problem for future Sabrina.She rifled through her suitcase, relieved to find that Reliana hadn’t shredded the clothes before tossing them inside. She pulled out a simple T-shirt, a pair of jeans, and some comfortable shoes.Slipping into a corner, she changed out of her ruined clothes and into the fresh ones, then gathered her tangled hair into a ponytail.Without sparing Archwood Mansion a final glance, she walked away. A dull ache throbbed in her chest, and the echoes of her father and step

Chapter: 8: Accusations Upon Accusations Harrison Archwood’s hand struck his daughter’s face, sending her stumbling backward. She fell onto the ground, too tired to hold herself up and too dazed to even attempt standing. Sabrina’s hand instinctively touched her stinging cheek, her mind reeling. Through the rain blurring her vision, she could still see the anger on her father’s face as clearly as the lightning flashing across the sky. “I… I don’t understa—” she began, but Harrison’s booming voice cut her off. “You had the audacity—the fucking audacity—to come back here after all the shame you’ve brought to this family?!” he bellowed, his face twisted with more malice than Sabrina had ever seen before. Confusion and pain swirled in her mind. She staggered to her feet, ignoring the protest of her aching muscles. “I didn’t… What are you talking about?” “Shameless girl!” Mira Archwood’s voice rang out. She marched forward, her heels clicking sharply against the floor as she scrutinized Sabrina with disgust. “How dare you sho

Chapter: 7: The Fall and the Return ~ Days before. Sabrina was falling—endlessly falling. Air whipped at her clothes and past her ears, her lips parted in a noiseless scream as she twisted mid-air, tears streaming down her cheeks. She plummeted fast, but for her, time felt unbearably slow. There was nothing to grab onto, nothing to break her fall. She was going to die. At that thought, Sabrina gave up. She accepted this reality, her inevitable end. What other choice did she have? Her will to live had already been stripped away. Everything she’d ever cared about—her mother, her trust, her family’s legacy—was gone. Now her life would be taken, too. Sabrina thought of her mother and smiled weakly at the thought of seeing her again. Tears slid down her face, and just as she was about to let her body go limp and accept the jagged rocks below, she saw it—a branch jutting out from the side of the mountain. With one last burst of determination, she reached for it. Her scream tore through the air as her body slammed agains

Chapter: 6 In Retrospect The search party had combed most of Greenvyle, and so far, nothing had been found—not even Sabrina’s body. Kyler continued to stand for interviews alongside Charlotte, both of them wearing sad expressions, with Charlotte even breaking down a few times. The Archwoods chose to remain silent on the matter, Harrison only showing up for a short interview to express his grief and disappointment, but nothing more. The next phase of their plan was to bribe the police into declaring her dead so they could all move on. Kyler and Charlotte would assume ownership of the company, and Reliana would be left all alone… again. The two had stopped responding to her messages since that day and, in public, kept her at arm’s length. They were trying to disassociate from her now that they didn’t need her anymore, but Reliana wasn’t going to let that happen—not by a long shot. “Lia?” Mira Archwood’s voice called from downstairs. “It’s time for dinner!” Reliana folded the papers in her hand—papers that
