Prisoner Of the Cursed Alpha chapter thirty- six
**POV Cassandra**"Behave, slave, or the King might order your head cut off!" the guard growled, releasing my arm with brutality and shoving me toward the imposing entrance of the room. The dark walls of the corridor seemed to absorb what little light there was, making the atmosphere even more oppressive.I swallowed hard, my feet hesitant as I moved toward the Alpha King's office. The arm he had gripped was still red, and a dull pain throbbed beneath the bruised skin. The tension in the air was suffocating. When I reached the door, a deep and authoritative voice echoed from inside."Enter!"My body trembled at the command. I took a deep breath and pushed the heavy door open. There was faint lighting in the office, just enough to reveal the silhouette of a man sitting with his back to me, his hands busy with papers scattered across the desk. He wore a fine linen shirt, but what caught my attention most were the runes and tattoos that marked his arms, accentuating his sculpted muscles.

POV CassandraThey locked me in the room, even after I had accepted the Alpha King's proposal. I was thinking of a way to escape, but after he decreed my sentence to servitude, that could worsen things, and I would become a fugitive criminal. I thought about going back to the cursed Alpha, but I didn’t want to bring trouble to him and his pack. Xavier had been kind to me, and all I did was treat him like someone hostile and insignificant. But Ursula's words wouldn’t leave my mind."I can’t undo the spell, maybe it’s better this way. You need to stay away from the cursed Alpha."I didn’t know any other witch besides Ursula. The truth is, they were rare and were almost wiped out with the Salem witch hunt. If I remember correctly, the humans hunted them as if they were animals, just for being different and possessing powers and knowledge that most didn’t have.I remember that many of them managed to save themselves by aligning with the packs; the Alphas provided them protection in exchan

**POV Cassandra***Flashback off*“Hurry up, you fool! Scrub that floor properly! The Alpha King does not tolerate dirt. He is strict about cleanliness and wants the floors he walks on to be so shiny that he can see his own reflection!” The head maid yelled in my direction, her gaze sharp as a blade. Her tone was like a whip that constantly reminded me of my place here.I swallowed hard, sweat dripping down my forehead. My hands trembled with exhaustion as I scrubbed the filthy floor with all the strength I had left. But the old, worn-out rag they gave me barely worked, leaving streaks and dirt wherever I passed.Suddenly, a girl approached and crouched beside me. “Here, use this. It’s better than that yellow sponge. If you keep going like that, you’ll end up with blisters on your hands, and it will take all day to finish this task.” She handed me a bucket with a much better brush than the rag I had been struggling with. I nodded, surprised by her unexpectedly kind gesture amid the ch

Alpha Xavier POVI entered the palace, wearing a mask, staying in the back because my beta convinced me not to draw attention.The men I had infiltrated into the royal guard were supposed to bring Cassandra to me during the night.I was anxious, pacing back and forth, wearing a black cloak, hiding in the shadows like a coward. I hate this. I hate hiding. I’d rather face them all and kill everyone, but that would ruin all the plans I’ve made over the years."They've located her. Cassandra is in the east wing of the palace," my beta communicated with me through the mental link. "They said the head maid is keeping an eye on her, and she'll only have a break during the night!" My beta said, while I continued observing my men entering the palace disguised as guards to infiltrate the troops."Why are they treating her like a servant?" I asked, confused."That was the Alpha King's sentence. Our men took longer to locate Cassandra because she lied, saying she didn’t have a pack and that her n

POV ALPHA XAVIER**Flashback**"Mom... does Dad not come here anymore because of me?" I asked, seeing my mother gazing out the window with a sad expression on her face."No, dear... he must be busy, you know your father is a busy man, he must have many things to resolve in the pack," she said, wiping her tears so I wouldn't notice she was crying."I don't understand, why can't we go to the pack and live with Dad? Why do we have to live isolated and far from all the other wolves?" I asked for the tenth time.This was something I could never understand. I couldn't have friends or interact with people from the pack. The last time we went out to beg for food, my father almost beat my mother with so many slaps that she never dared to go out again. He would send a basket with bread once a month, which was barely enough to eat. We were forced to eat only one meal a day."It's complicated, dear... but believe me, your father is doing this to protect us," she said, smiling slightly and approac

**POV Cassandra**I could hardly believe it. He was there, right in front of me, like a ghost from the past I thought I had lost forever."Xavier… is it really you?" My eyes widened in surprise as the man in the black cloak approached, touching my hands with a tenderness that contrasted with the hostile environment around us."Cassandra, are you alright?" His voice, deep and filled with concern, resonated in my ears. His intense eyes scanned my body, frantically searching for any sign of injury, bruise, or pain I might be hiding. "Did that bastard do anything to you?" He growled through clenched teeth, and I could feel the wolf inside him roaring with rage, the beastly fury gleaming in his eyes.Before he lost control, I pulled him into a dark corner where no one could see us. The guards kept their watch from a safe distance, but even so, every word we exchanged felt too risky. It was like walking on thin ice."Don’t speak so loudly!" I whispered, my lips inches from his, the tension
Prisoner Of the Cursed Alpha chapter forty- two
POV Alpha Xavier I left that cursed place trembling with rage, my blood boiling in my veins. My mind was in turmoil, a whirlwind of emotions I couldn't contain. Cassandra's words echoed in my head like poison, each lie, each cruel word eating away at me from the inside. Before I knew it, my body began to change. The anger was too much to hold back, and my wolf emerged from within me with brutal force, tearing my clothes apart like paper.Black fur began to sprout from my skin, spreading rapidly. My muscles expanded, my chest heaving with each deep breath, while my nose elongated into a fierce snout, filled with sharp teeth ready to tear apart anything in my way. I transformed completely, and all that was left was the wild instinct and the need to destroy something—or someone.Without thinking, I ran into the forest, my feet turning into enormous paws that crushed the ground with unstoppable fury. The trees passed by as blurs, and the wind whipped my body, but nothing could lessen the

*POV Cassandra*"Believe me, girl, it’s better this way," Ursula’s voice echoed through the room as I buried my face in the pillow, trying to hold back the tears that insisted on escaping. My body was exhausted, but my mind was in turmoil, replaying every cruel word I had said to Xavier.The sun was beginning to set; it must have been around six in the evening. The workday had ended earlier, a rare relief, because the alpha king had gone to visit a neighboring city. My hands and feet throbbed with pain. Seven days of incessant work, and this was my first break. I didn’t know how much longer I could endure working twelve-hour days, sleeping only three hours a night. My body felt like it was about to collapse."Take the day to rest, Cassandra. You’re exhausted," Ursula said as she bandaged my knees, always red and swollen from the hours I spent kneeling, scrubbing that damned stone floor.I could barely speak, the words stuck in my throat, mixed with guilt. "The worst part, Ursula..." I

**POV Cassandra** The months passed so quickly that it felt like I blinked and was already in a new stage of pregnancy. Each day it became harder to hide my growing belly, a constant reminder of the life I was carrying. "Careful, miss!" Jennie warned, holding my arm as she helped me step into the bathtub. Her movements were cautious, as if I were made of glass. After much insistence, I managed to convince Xavier to allow Jennie to return to the pack as my servant. He seemed so consumed by guilt over what happened—or rather, what he *thought* had happened—that he didn’t dare deny me anything I asked for. "Are you sure you don’t want to do any tests to find out the baby’s gender?" Jennie asked, pouring warm water over me as she gently lathered my body. I sighed, leaning my head back, letting the heat of the water relax my muscles. "I don’t care, Jennie. All I want is for this child to be born healthy and far from anything that could harm them." I ran my hand over my belly, c

**POV Alpha Xavier** --- Dr. Afonso left my office so abruptly that, for a moment, I was paralyzed. When I came to my senses, I realized I was alone with Cassandra. The silence in the room was so heavy it seemed to press down on every corner. Outside, my staff kept their distance, likely too afraid to cross my path in this state. She approached me slowly, her steps measured, her face still pale, but a faint smile graced her lips. Her eyes were gentle, though tired. When she raised her hands to caress my face, the touch was so light and delicate that I almost couldn’t hold myself together. A moment later, she rested her head against my chest, pulling me into a tight embrace. For an instant, it felt like the weight of the world had been lifted. “I love you, you know?” Her voice was a soft whisper, but it carried immense meaning. She seemed so fragile, so small in my arms. “I’m sorry... I’m sorry I couldn’t keep my promise.” Her words cut deep, striking a part of me I didn’t re

**Alpha Xavier's POV** "You bastard! Incompetent!" My voice thundered down the hallway. "I’m going to kill you!"My hands were firmly wrapped around Dr. Afonsos’s neck as he stared at me with wide eyes full of sheer terror. My wolf roared within me, thirsty for blood, demanding vengeance as the only possible justice for the death of my child."I trusted you..." My voice came out low and dark before rising again like a roar. "You told me the herb was harmless! That it wouldn’t harm the baby! And look what happened!"I pressed his back hard against the wall, tightening my grip on his neck. He struggled to breathe, his face turning a deeper shade of red as his eyes pleaded for mercy—mercy I had no intention of granting."Alpha... please..." he managed to croak, his voice hoarse and faint. "I... I don’t know what happened. The herb... it’s never had abortive effects before... I swear, this has never happened!"His desperate, hesitant tone only fueled my rage further. His excuse was a da

**Cassandra’s POV****Five Days Later**"Yes, perfect. Deliver everything to Dr. Afonsos. He won’t suspect a thing." My voice sounded firmer than I actually felt as I carefully placed the collection containers in Maria’s hands. She looked at me with wide eyes, hesitating to take them."Luna, what we’re doing is very dangerous," Maria murmured, her voice filled with concern. "Without Dr. Afonsos, you won’t have any monitoring during your pregnancy—no exams, no prenatal care. This could harm the baby."She paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, as if trying to gather the courage to say what was on her mind."Besides," she continued, her voice breaking, "I think the Alpha has suffered enough. He comes to visit you every day, Luna, and at night the staff hears him crying softly in his office, asking the Moon Goddess why it had to be this way. I’ve never seen a man like him so broken."Tears streamed down Maria’s face. She believed what we were doing was wrong, yet she kept helping me.

**POV Cassandra**I was lying in bed, still pretending the extreme exhaustion that the "miscarriage" should have caused, but my mind was alert. Every sound in the hallway, every distant whisper made me anxious. Suddenly, I heard the soft creak of the bedroom door opening.I opened my eyes slowly, feigning surprise, and saw Maria entering hurriedly. Her expression was filled with nervousness, her trembling hands holding a tray of medical instruments."Maria?" I murmured, my voice deliberately hoarse and weak.She closed the door behind her and looked at me with a mix of fear and concern."Cassandra, we can’t keep this charade going much longer," she said in almost a whisper. "You went overboard with the amount of blood. Dr. Afonsos thinks you’re on the verge of severe anemia or worse. He’s already arranging blood bags to give you a transfusion!"I couldn’t help but laugh, a short and raspy sound that made Maria frown indignantly."I figured that might happen," I said, adjusting my pill

**POV Alpha Xavier** As I entered the room, my heart nearly stopped. Cassandra lay unconscious on the bed, her skin pale as snow, and the sheets were stained with ominous red blotches that screamed danger. "Cassandra!" My roar echoed through the room, but she didn’t move. Dr. Afonsos and the nurses surrounded her, rushing back and forth, trying to stabilize her. My chest burned, and Ragnar, my wolf, growled furiously within me. "Afonsos, do something!" I shouted, moving closer to the bed. "Alpha, with all due respect, we need space. I’ll call for additional doctors to assist, but it’s crucial that you leave now so we can work!" Afonsos replied, attempting to stay calm. "I’m not leaving this room while she’s like this!" My voice was low but laced with menace. He hesitated for a moment before signaling to the nurses. "Escort the Alpha outside, and make sure he stays out of the room." Two guards appeared, hesitant, and ushered me away. I roared in protest, but as much a

**POV Cassandra**As soon as Xavier left the room with that smile on his face, a smile that filled me with guilt, I ran to the bathroom. Despair grew in my chest like an uncontrollable blaze. Without thinking twice, I put my fingers down my throat, forcing myself to vomit. Within seconds, I expelled the moss-green liquid I had ingested, its smell so strong and foul that it made my stomach churn again. I could barely breathe, holding onto the bathroom sink to avoid collapsing. At that moment, I heard the sound of the door opening and Maria entering the room, carrying a basin of water. "Are you all right, Cassandra?" The worry was etched on her face as she noticed my pale complexion and the dark circles under my eyes that betrayed my sleepless night. I forced a weak smile, trying to mask my distress. "I'm fine. Just a little unwell." She didn’t seem convinced, but she didn’t press further. Silently, she helped me back to the bed. I sat down, propping a pillow behind me to adju

Alpha Xavier’s POVMy hands trembled as I held the small vial of powder. Even after discussing all the details with Dr. Afonso, a suffocating weight pressed on my chest. Every fiber of my being screamed against what I was about to do, but Alpha Damom had left me no choice. I stared at the powder again and took a deep breath, forcing my mind to calm.“This is to protect them,” I told myself repeatedly, like a prayer.I added a small dose of the powder into the hot tea on the tray, watching it mix slowly until it disappeared completely. I picked up the tray and walked toward Cassandra’s room, each step echoing in the empty hallway. The wooden floors creaked under my weight, and my wolf, Ragnar, restless in my mind, growled in frustration. He knew something was wrong, but I blocked our connection, unwilling to hear his condemnation.When I reached the door, I inhaled deeply, trying to steady myself. I pushed the door open slowly and stepped inside.Cassandra was sitting on the bed, with

POV Cassandra"THINK, CASSANDRA, THINK! HE WOULDN'T DO THIS TO US!" My wolf, Roxy, growled in my mind, indignant that I was doubting our mate."This is ridiculous. You saw it, we saw it," I retorted angrily. "He promised Alpha Damom he would do it. Wondering if he’ll keep his promise to us or to him won’t get us anywhere. We need to think of a way to protect ourselves and our pup!" My inner voice was almost a scream, and Roxy fell silent, resentful, for a few moments.The pain was suffocating, something I had never felt before. My heart was broken, yet there was a small glimmer of hope that Xavier wouldn’t go through with it. However, all the evidence coldly pointed to the death of my baby. I could barely breathe between the tears and the weight of uncertainty."Damn it!" I screamed, throwing one of my personal belongings against the wall, feeling the shattering of porcelain echo my own rage and despair.For a moment, I bitterly regretted venturing into the forest that night to find t
