Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 14 Introductions
Anila POV I stepped back as four more girls rushed into the room with large and curious eyes. My heart was pounding rapidly in my chest as they all turned to face me. The first girl, with the feathers, stepped closer to me and reached her hand out for me to shake. “My name is Penny Penson, and I am your roommate!” She said happily. I knew I recognized her face. I raised my brows at her name as I hesitantly took her hand and shook it. “Penny…. Penson?” I asked, curiously. She smiled. “I know, it’s weird, right? My parents certainly have a sense of humor.” “It’s unique,” I told her honestly. “It’s nice meeting you. I’m Anila Montgomery.” “Oh, trust me, we know who you are,” Penny chuckled. “We got here earlier today, and we were out exploring when we saw you holding Damien West’s wand!” My eyes widened at her words. “I know everything there is to know about this school and the top students. I’ve been preparing for this school my entire life and I’m so excited to be
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 15 First Dinner
Anila POV The growling of my stomach stopped my words from escaping my lips. My cheeks flushed right away, and I held onto my stomach, attempting to silence it. “Sorry,” I murmured, embarrassed by the intrusive sound. Penny stood to her feet, laughing. “For what? Being hungry?” She asked, glancing at her phone. “Dinner will be served soon. Let’s go to the dining hall, and we can continue this conversation after” she said, motioning for us to follow her. I was grateful for the momentary distraction and subject change. I hadn’t even realized an hour had passed since I was trapped in the elevator with Zach. The memory caused my body to become incredibly hot. I swallowed the lump that formed in my throat and stood with everyone else. Penny draped an arm through mine. “We are in this together, Anila,” she assured me. “Stick with us and you’ll never be alone.” I smiled, it was a nice thought having a group of girls that I could depend on and even consider my friends. I ne
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 16 The Men of Lunar Academy
Anila POV The amount of gasps around the table was alarming. “What?” Penny gasped. “Are you serious?” Both Sadie and Sally gasped. “No way!” Sage gasped. “Holy shit,” Becca gasped and then she burst out laughing. “And here we are, feeding you awful information about him.” Penny’s face was beat red when she turned to me. “Oh, my gosh. I’m so sorry, Anila. You must think awful of us. Speaking about your mate like that,” she said, shaking her head, her blonde, red, and feathered curls bouncing around her features. “I’m sure he’s so much different with you because you are his mate.” “That explained why he looked so happy,” Sage said, nodding in agreement to Penny. “You don’t need to apologize,” I said, placing my hand on Penny’s arm to calm her. “I’m glad you told me this information. I only just met him, and I wasn’t really sure what to think of it all. It’s… a lot,” I admitted. “I can’t believe Zach would be so cruel as to fight Xaden for his mate,” Sally breathed, sh
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 17 Faithfulness
Anila POV I probably should have turned away. Maybe try to find a different bathroom; not that I would even know where to start looking. But something was keeping me grounded and when I peered around the corner and saw Damien’s distraught face, I knew I wasn’t going to be able to go anywhere. My chest tightened even more. I was finally able to get a better look at Damien. I saw him when I first arrived after I found his wand, but with everything that had gone on, I wasn’t able to actually look at him. His hair was a deep shade of brown, like the riches of the earth. It lay in soft waves around his features. His eyes were a darker shade of gray than mine, and hard to read. Especially through his thick-framed glasses. I had to admit to myself that he was good-looking in a nerdy kind of way. Though, despite him appearing a bit nerdy, his body revealed that he was no stranger to the gym. He was tall, but his arms were nicely built and the white collared shirt he wore fi
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 18 Wand’s Defiance
Anila POV The familiar gorgeous wand flipped over me as if it had jumped off a springboard before spiraling around my legs and up my body. It swished and flicked above my head, and then twisted down beneath my feet. I wasn’t quite sure if it was happy to see me, or if it was performing a dance, but I didn’t stop the smile from forming on my lips. Suddenly my body feels heavy, and the magic releases its tight hold on me as I drop to my feet. The wand holds still in front of my face as if assessing me for any damage before whipping around. It dove straight for Sarah, aiming to take an eye out if she hadn’t ducked out of the way. She made a surprised yelp as it quickly turned around and came at her again, this time smacking against her cheek. There was a small red line that formed on her pale flesh as her hand covered it, betrayed shock written all over her face. As the wand readied for another attack, taking advantage of Sarah's hesitation, Damien was quick as he snatched it
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 19 Magical Medium
Anila POV I have never before seen someone’s face change so red as they do in the cartoons, but that’s exactly what Sarah’s face did. And with the round shape of her head, she looked painfully like a tomato. She opened her mouth, readying an argument before Xaden held up his hand, cutting her off. “What are you going to say? That it isn’t true?” He shook his head, the calm features I was so used to seeing were nowhere in sight. “You approached so many men. Jaxon, Heath, Paul. Even Harley, and Myself.” My eyebrows raised at the list. “Wow, impressive,” I commented, but it only made Sarah start to tremble. “We are just classmates… friends. Nothing more!” She barked, but Xaden gave a boisterous laugh. “Only after you got rejected and turned down by every single one of us. ‘Just friends,’ she says. You know what is the most ridiculous? That you have this poor man believing the bullshit spewing out of your mouth.” Xaden’s tone turned angry as he gestured to Damien, who remaine
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 20 Shopping Spree
Anila POV The shopkeeper shook his head with a mirthless laugh. “I can’t believe it actually chose someone,” He said more to himself than to us. He slammed his hand on the table, causing me to jump. “What does that mean?” I found myself asking. “It means it’s all yours, young lady.” He begrudgingly hands the necklace over, and I am slow to grab it. No way something so exquisite was free. But from the deep frown on the old shopkeeper's face, I could tell he wasn’t very happy about it. “Thank you,” My voice was kind as I held the necklace. Its weight was surprising, considering how much metal is a part of it. It weighed almost nothing. Xaden looked at the necklace for a long moment, thoughts upon thoughts flashing behind his eyes before he gave a warm smile. “Congratulations, Anila. Let’s get back, so you can rest before tomorrow. You have orientation at 11 and then you’ll get your schedule. We can find time to meet tomorrow and begin your training.” I looked at t
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 21 Awkward Elevator Ride
Anila POVI lay on my new bed, feeling a bit overwhelmed over the day. It was hard to believe that I’d been away from home for a little over 24 hours. In a matter of hours, I found out that I was more special than I ever thought I could be.It was strange going to bed when the sun was rising. The sun was desperately trying to shine through my closed shades, and I honestly didn’t think I’d be able to sleep. I hadn’t slept since the plane though and my body was tired despite the time of day.Penny told me that I’d get use

Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 100 True Feelings
Jaxon’s POVI stared in amazement as Anila nurtured the baby dragon as if it were second nature. I knew Emily was impressed too; the only ones who were able to communicate and bond with dragons were dragon masters, but Anila wasn’t a dragon master. At least not yet, but the way she cared for Ember as if she was her own child, did something to my insides that I didn’t particularly like.I never wanted to have real feelings for Anila. I recognized her as my mate when I first saw her in the forest and despite the fact that she has other mates in the mix, I knew exactly what she was to me. I saw her as an opportunity
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 99 Depressed Dragon
Anila’s POV“Dragons?” I asked, my eyes wide as I stared up at Jaxon.He cocked his head at me.“This is Dragon Valley,” he reminded me. “Of course, there are dragons here.”“Well, yeah. I guess I kind of assumed you allowed them to go free,” I confessed, biting my lower lip in embarrassment. But it was strange that they’d keep dragons locked away in stables like horses.
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 98 Marriage Proposal
Anila’s POV “I’m sorry, I don’t think I heard you correctly,” I said, gawking at Jaxon, my jaw nearly hitting the ground. “Did you just say you want me to be your queen?”“That’s right,” he said, entwining his fingers together. “My people expect me to rule over them with a queen by my side. I assured them infinite protection since the last Dragon King screwed them over and the only way I can ensure that protection is if I give my people an heir.”“An heir

Anila’s POV“He’s here,” I whispered, staring at the shadows. They followed my gaze to the shadowy region; Zach furrowing his brows together.“In the shadows?” Zach asked, looking at me like I had just lost my mind.I nodded.“Yes,” I answered. “He’s hiding himself.”“He’s being a fucking coward is what he&rsq
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 96 The Dragon King’s Deal
Anila’s POV“What do you mean you know the dragon king?” Harley asked all their eyes on me completely now.My cheeks flushed.“He’s kind of my fifth mate…” I admitted, biting my lower lip and anticipating some lash-back. But they all just stared at me with their mouths hanging open.“Your 5(th) mate is the dragon king?” Damien asked, finally finding his mate. “Are you sure about that?”I nodded.“Yes,” I told him. “I’m sure about it just as sure as I am that the four of you are my mates.”Damien shuffled awkwardly in his shoes and glanced at the ground. Zach and Harley exchanged a look before looking at Xaden who appeared frozen in place as he stared at me.“And you’ve spoken to him?” Xaden asked, his voice coming out softly.I nodded again.“Yes,” I answered. Then I looked at Zach, meeting his eyes. “That baby dragon that I found. Jaxon came to retrieve her. That’s why she went missing.”He nodded in understanding.“What baby dragon?” Xaden asked, looking between Zach and me.“It’s a
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 95 Dragon Valley
Anila’s POVWhen I got back to the clinic, both Harley and Zach were watching me warily. I’m not sure what to say to them or how to explain to them what I was going to have to do. My stomach was in a complete knot but I was doing this for Xaden. They had to understand that.“Are you okay?” Harley asked, watching me carefully.“Yeah,” I lied, trying to force a smile as I sat back at Xaden’s bedside. “I just needed some air. I’m good now.”I was a coward for not coming out and telling them that I had to leave by sundown tonight with Jaxon. That was his request; that I go back home with him, and only then will he tell me what he wants me to do before he saves Xaden’s life.“You look like you’re about to puke,” Zach points out, his brows furrowed together.“And we can tell that something is wrong with your emotions, Anila,” Harley said, eyeing my face. “Just tell us what’s going on.”“Do you think maybe we can just talk later? I’m kind of tired and I think I just want to close m eyes for
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 94 Acquiring Help
Anila’s POV“It’s you…” I whispered, taking a step back, my heart hammering in my chest.“Like I said, I’m not here to hurt you.” Jaxon emerged from the tree line, and he was walking towards me. I held my breath as I watched him approach me, his hands raised to show that he wasn’t carrying anything. He was completely shirtless, and my mouth dropped at the sight of his body. He had tattoos across his chest and along his shoulders that looked as if they went down his back as well. I knew right away that the tattoos were of dragons, or maybe one really big dragon with little dragons inside of it.Regardless, I found myself drawn to them.He also had a long scar that went across his chest and down his torso, but that didn’t make him any less hot. In fact, it made him look more manly. I swallowed the lump in my throat as Jaxon Develson, the dragon King, stood only inches from me.He had the scent of limes and passionfruit, and it caused my senses to be on high alert. There was no doubt in
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 93 Joined Together
Anila’s POVAs soon as I felt Zach’s fangs dig into my soft flesh, it was like a wake-up call. But before I could react, I heard the deep throaty growl of a bear, and I knew Harley had just witnessed this. Zach quickly released me, blood dripping from his lips just as Harley attacked him.A scream escaped my lips as I watched the two fall to the ground. Harley was in his bear form, but Zach shifted back into his wolf form almost immediately and the two began to fight.My fingers shakily went to my neck, and I felt the spot that Zach marked.He actually marked. After he said he wouldn’t do that.I knew that I needed to get out of there. I didn’t stick around to see if the fighting continued; I trusted them to know when to stop. I was furious, and I was hurt, and I was scared. I was scared for Xaden, and I was scared for myself.Zach marked me… without my permission.Anger filled me at the very thought, but it was hard to maintain because my wolf was happy about this.I found my clothes
Bound by the Alphas #Chapter 92 A Third Mark
Zach’s POVThere had been a line that was immediately crossed, and I could see was fucking red. I wanted to rip Harley’s throat out for crossing that line, but I was completely glued to my spot, staring at them like they had both just struck me at the same time.I’m not an idiot, I knew Anila didn’t trust me and I also knew that she blamed me for what happened with Xaden. I knew she would even if it wasn’t my fault. I was the easiest one to blame. My vendetta against Xaden wasn’t a secret and his vendetta against me wasn’t one either. Xaden and I talked a lot during this battle though and we came together with a mutual respect.He made me promise that if anything were to happen to him, I would take care of Anila. He told me to mark her and keep her protected. I didn’t think Harley would swoop in and take her for himself though, especially without speaking to me about it first. He was so hurt and upset that Xaden went ahead and marked Anila without talking to us about it and then he we
