THE ALPHA'S CAPTIVE CHAPTER 60
I go about a step before Eva stops me with a phony, gentle apology. "You have an order from the Alpha."I turn to look into her acerbic green eyes. "I intended to obtain—""Simple. It," she cuts herself off, bringing up her pointy chin. That was his statement. not stray from the small task you've set for yourself.The fragments of glass on the floor catch my attention. "I require—"Jacob cuts you off, saying, "You need to learn to follow instructions. Sincerely, Darius, if she can't even follow basic instructions, you should be more strict with her.I am aware of their desires and can feel their bloodlust. For me to suffer for no apparent reason, no matter how minor or major.Felix as well. They gaze at me with wolf eyes, glistening and keen, drooling over their pound of flesh, knowing exactly what I did to Felix.I'm surrounded by a flock of raptors in a high-rise apartment, so I do what I can. I follow instructions before they can come up with crueler ways to retaliate against me.A

I get pulled away from the window by Nathan. I struggle to get back to it.Nathan responds, "Just your mate eager for some attention," and resumes his game of snatch and release.He pulls me back, and I release the window frame at the same moment. I slam into his chest, and he stumbles back a step, so he couldn't have been expecting it.His lips curve into that loathed, mocking smirk when he sees me.Perish.I use the glass shard in my right hand to cut at his throat. I get blood all over my face. There's so much of it that I momentarily lose my vision. But just momentarily.He lets go of me and staggers backward by one step, holding his palm against the jagged gash in his throat.I look at him, my heart racing so fast that I don't even realize I'm not shouting until I hear someone swear."Aw shucks."By chance. Chance sounds like that.With a look in his piercing blue eyes that I have never seen before, Nathan looks back at me.Unexpected.He collapses heavily to his knees, the blood

When I see the needle, I finally give in to the panic that has been repressing me for the entire time.Tyler uses so little effort to hold me pinned that his forearm muscles hardly strain when I try.I watch Darius struggle, rounding the side of the bed and perching on the edge, his eyes never leaving mine, till he reaches for my bleeding arm.It's not like he was trying to stop the blood from seeping through the white sheets; he could have just gone for bandages. This is just torment, nothing more.He remains motionless for a considerable amount of time, observing my arm objectively while I inhale sharply, causing all the muscles in my body to tense.He lays the thread and needle on the bed next to him.I guess he's changed his mind, like an idiot. That perhaps something has stopped him—his wolf, the only aspect of him that appears to care whether I live or die.However, he scowls a little, reaches out to grab my arm, and then yanks the glass shard out with a forceful motion.I screa

Jade seems to be following a plan because it doesn't seem like he's arguing just to argue. I'm willing to give it some thought as long as it's not so careless as to kill us all. within bounds of rationality. "Why not?"There are two vacant structures. It is unlikely that he is residing there, as I assume he purchased them as assets. One is merely a piece of ground. There's nothing on five acres. Even though it's worth a sizable sum of money, he seemed happy to just sit on it. There are now two. These are flats in high rises. Can you guess which floor his apartments are on? Jade's eyebrow goes up.I look at him fixedly. "Aw shucks.""That's my line," snorts Jade, putting a hint of a smile on his lips."I'm not understanding it. Why do you fuck? Dan looks from me to Jade, then back to me.More evidence that he requires more than four hours of sleep. Dan isn't usually this sluggish to pick things up."Penthouse apartments, and I'm guessing those posh buildings where you need a key to ent

He reached over to touch her. left her scarred. His wolf glare turns icy silver, and the rage within it charges the space like electricity. "The fucker dies tonight."He is not the one to make that decision. Here, he's not the alpha, but nevertheless Jade and Dan look at me as if they're waiting for my contribution.Is she yours? I'm not sure.But in this case, she's made a shift. Not only in Jade, who delighted in soaking his dick in a woman's pussy and immersing himself in alcohol. But also in Dan. And me? Who knows?Since everyone has strengths, and since I'm the alpha, it's my responsibility to identify them, I turn to Dan. "How much bomb knowledge do you have?"Ever since Jade and I rescued Dan from the streets, he has seized every chance to acquire knowledge. His mind is like a sponge, and he is constantly ready to take in information.I see that same wisdom reflected back at me, that same unwavering hunger to grow, even in spite of his fatigue. If anything, it has gotten bigger

"Yes," Dan responds, clearly not expecting such a thing from his smile.But his smile disappears as he looks back at me. "When I'm gone, you and Jade won't try to kill each other."A gentle thud captures our attention. With his laptop resting on his lap and his fingertips caressing the keyboard, Jade settles himself on the counter. "You are aware of my fondness for an audience." He raises his head and winks. "We'll hold out for you. I enjoy the focus.After Leandro and Dan depart, I lean my back against the wall and watch Jade to see whether he pulls up the addresses we need to visit this morning.He looks at his laptop and murmurs, "So, a mate, huh?"I stay silent. I discuss some topics and I don't talk about other others.With serious grey eyes, he glances up at me. Tell me something, please. Does she irritate you as much as your brother did?I fold my arms across my torso."Well, if she is," Jade says, his lips quivering. "It could help explain why you're usually such a stiff, infl

East leads into a rough community. We parked there, knowing full well that it won't be there when we're through cleaning out Darius's pack, but from everything we've read about Darius—a guy born with a silver spoon shoved down his throat—it doesn't seem like he would want to mix it up with the dealers and pimps that frequent the area.Therefore, the quickest option for him to flee when things get out of hand is for him to drive up from the south and arrive via the minor road that branches off the main city street. Which is precisely why Dan is positioned with a rifle high in a tree to stop it from happening.We will be waiting for Darius Treveiler and his pack as they thunder into the patch of grass under us in a few minutes. We've been helpful enough to position ourselves so near that, should Darius sense he's about to step into a trap, he only needs to take a deep breath, smell the smells of three males, and he won't think twice about sending his pack after us.Most things are cover

I jerk my eyes away from Darius and meet Finn's wolf-like stare.Even though he doesn't say anything, I can still read the order in his fixed gaze. Stay put."I assume she's to blame for all of this drama." The stillness is broken by Darius's stern voice. You've just thrown away your life, I have to tell you that. I own her.He scans the landscape with his pale blue vision before focusing it narrowly on the fire that is consuming his pricey woodland. He then makes this cut to his eyes. A smirk curls his lips, and his nostrils flare.I will know then that we have him committed. After giving it some sniffing, he's realized that, in contrast to his pack of dogs, there are only three of us. I quickly count...eighteen?How the fuck did the other two end up?It makes no difference as long as they don't surprise us from behind. And should they give it a shot?That will be their final error.He now realizes that there are only the three of us on the tree, and he will not go back in the automo

Also, if you bite Dan already and someone asks you to fill up the release paperwork at the door, well.I mumble, "We might not get him out of the hospital before he shifts.""Regular individuals don't just heal themselves; he'll start healing himself. Finn adds, turning away from me, "If we stay, we expose ourselves in addition to him.If there was one rule in Fight Club, it would be that no one should be aware that shifters exist. The government would eliminate them all if people were aware of them and what they were capable of.When Darius informed me that certain disparities are so great that people would turn against you if they understood what they were, I felt like he was exaggerating. There is nothing you could do or say that would ever lead them to believe you are anything other than a threat that has to be eliminated.Until I recalled my school days following Mom's death and my transformation into the girl with the drunken father. I changed and evolved. Something to be mocked

"They're far too violent for you," he explained. "Bed. "Let's go, squirt." He'd discovered me after I'd snuck down the stairs to peer through the bannisters at the TV."But the men take too long to fall down and sometimes they grab the wrong place on their front, so they can't be dead." I let out a sigh.As he carried me back up to bed, he chuckled. "Waiting too long to fall, huh?" How long have you been looking?"I denied ever seeing anything. He snorted at my obvious deception, kissed the top of my head, put me into bed, and then told me a tale."You sound like you might be smiling, angel," Jade adds, restoring my attention to the present."Well, I'm not," I tell myself. "You're just hearing things."He sighs once more, brings me in closer, and inhales. "Fuck, angel, I thought we'd lost you today."They should have discovered my body in the attic.Darius lost his cool over little matters such as the white wine at dinner not being cold enough. He'd lash out at one of his packmates fo

If this surgeon is still sniffing about Amanda once Dan is better, it will be the last thing he does."You're quiet," Finn remarks as we come to a halt in front of the vending machine, releasing my arm."Please tell me you're not working out how to kill the doctor and get away with it."I cast a casual glance at the machine. I'm not interested in crappy coffee or tea. My eyes widen when I see peppermint tea.Amanda could use one of them. Also, sleep. She appeared weary, with black bags under her eyes. Still lovely, but ready to go."I'm thinking," I say quietly.The second Amanda turns her back, she plans on tearing the good surgeon apart.Finn rummages in his pocket with his hand. "I repeat myself. Please don't tell me you're plotting the doctor's demise."I cast a peek across at him. He must have just realised that the only things we stopped to get before following the ambulance to the hospital were his clothing and vehicle keys. We weren't planning on getting cash for the vending m

I examine him again, unsure if I should believe that smile—or him. "That you were a decent guy in spite of it."He laughs from the bottom of his heart, throwing his head back. All unaffected and... genuine. It makes me want to laugh along with him just to see how it feels. "I will most definitely need to have words with Olivia."I cock my head, forgetting about the desire to scream for Jade to return. "Words? Is that a polite way of saying—""No euphemism." He wriggles his fingers again as if requesting permission.After a little moment, I nod once, and he takes a step forward.He's so near that the tip of my nose brushes against his chest as my knees kiss his thighs. I can't help but inhale his aroma.He smells better than I'd imagine a surgeon to smell just after surgery. Clean, with a woodsy note that might nearly be cologne."While one or two doctors in this hospital have married nurses, I have no plans for the lovely Olivia," he adds as he begins his inspection.How on earth did

"Despite its miraculous abilities, the heart is a delicate thing." There's a reason we have ribs to defend ourselves." He lowers his voice and frowns. "I know what injured your guy and brought him here. He was fortunate to have survived."Most individuals would not survive a wolf attack, in my opinion.Harley pauses for a beat as if waiting for an explanation. Nobody offers one.When he doesn't receive one, he keeps going. "With all of the damage we discovered in surgery, his recovery will be a long process, and there will be complications." I'm here to go over some of the upcoming events in the following days, weeks, and months."My fingers tighten in Jade's sweatpants as all my anxiety returns. "Months?""His heart stopped on the operating table, Jane." He stops and looks at her. "Twice."My mouth is parched. "However, you were able to save him?"Harley gives a single nod. "We have a great team in this hospital.""What complications can we anticipate?" Jade asks, less hostilely than

"Dan had died. Exactly like me. "I think the door hit us." I blink, and I'm back in the attic, watching Dan scramble for the rifle as a wolf rushes at him. "I thought I was going to watch Darius rip out his throat like—" I swallow my words.Nathan did the same thing to Simon Trevor.Simon was one of those rare treasures that a girl couldn't believe existed. A truly kind person. Someone who refused to assist me because he desired something in return. But he did it because he could. He did exactly that. And he paid with his life.I try again, clearing my throat. "I believe he wanted to make Dan suffer as much as he wanted to make me suffer." He cut Dan's breast open before leaping out the upstairs window."But not before he murmured the eight words into my ear that will haunt me for the rest of my life."You belong to no one but me, Amanda."Finn gives a blink. "He didn't take you."My head shakes. "Like I said, he likes to punish people."Finn cocks his head, his gaze narrowing. "You k

We tripped over each other to follow as they rushed him out of the attic, the house, and finally into a flashing ambulance waiting outside.“Sorry, no room,” they said when we moved to follow.None of us dared argue. Not when Dan’s heart could stop again any second.So we let the bland-faced EMTs who’d shocked Dan’s heart into beating call out a hasty direction for the hospital, slam the door shut, and then they were just…gone.A hand closes high on my right arm.I startle, whipping my head that way."Angel?” Jade’s gray eyes search my face as I search his.Dan once said he looked like a brawler, and he does. I study him, taking my time. Shaved dark hair. Intent gray eyes which dare you to look away first. A nose with a tiny bump on the slope from a break that didn’t heal right. His raw strength makes me feel stronger in a way that shouldn’t make sense, yet it does.“He’s a fighter. Like you. Like all of us. He will survive this.”I wish I could believe you.“Darius is a killer.” I an

On my left, there is some movement.With a snarl, I spin around, swiping my claw at a wolf with a piercing blue gaze who hisses in agony and bounds back, the copper tang of his blood strong in the air.Behind.I'm not sure if that was my warning or my wolf's.It makes no difference.We've already whirled around to confront the danger.The door behind me means I'm not in danger of injuring anybody who matters anything to me, so I stop battling my wolf the way I've been doing for years and start fighting with him.And our adversaries perish one by one beneath our jaws and claws.It makes no difference that others are rushing into the room, assaulting in pairs, one at a moment.It makes no difference if they pierce my flesh with their fangs or cut open my back with their claws.All that matters is that they perish.The floor is slippery with my adversary's and my own blood, but the pain is a distant second—or is it third?—to the wrath erupting within me.Then it's only me, my breathing r

"What makes breathing so important?" I inquire, disregarding the aching in my left arm. It's only been a minute, yet I'm already trying to stay up."You could have lined up the most perfect shot in the world, but what if you get excited and your breathing changes?"I thought for a moment, but I didn't have a response for him. "No."He takes two deep, leisurely breaths. But his third breath is a bit faster, and the cannon slips to the left by about half an inch. "Did you notice that?"I nod. "Breathing made you move.""Move it just enough to throw off your shot." With a body shot, you can get away with it, but with a headshot, you can miss it entirely. "Calm and control will save the day here.""Are you not angry?" I inquire, intrigued by this aspect of Dan. I had no clue he knew how to shoot, much alone be so enthusiastic about it."There is a time for rage." Isn't it when you have a pistol in your hand?" He softly presses down on my finger. "This is exactly how it should feel. Breath
