The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 45- Betrayal and Chaos
The world around me felt like it was closing in, each breath growing heavier as my mind raced. I didn’t know what to do. Every instinct screamed at me to run, to escape, but the truth was, there was nowhere to go. No safe path. No way out.Lucas grabbed my arm again, his grip firm and demanding, but I stepped back, yanking it free. The look in his eyes was one of desperation, but there was something darker underneath—something that made my stomach twist. “Isabella, we need to leave *now,*” he urged, his voice low but frantic. “If we stay, we’re both dead.”I shook my head, taking another step back. My thoughts were a whirlwind, my heart pounding in my chest. How could I trust him? How could I go with these hunters knowing what they were capable of? Knowing that these people were the reason Aiden’s parents were dead? The same people who had hunted his kind for centuries?And then there was Aiden himself. What would he do if he found out I had asked Lucas—who was working with these hun
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 46- Running Nowhere
The world around me was a blur, and all I could do was run. The branches clawed at my skin, leaves slapped against my face, and the ground beneath me seemed to move faster than I could keep up with. But I didn’t stop. I couldn’t stop.I was running from everything. From Darius and the wolves of his pack, from Lucas and the hunters, from the lies and betrayal that had slowly wrapped themselves around my life. Every step felt like an escape, but I didn’t know where I was escaping to.I had no idea where I was going. No plan. No direction. Just an overwhelming need to keep moving, to keep running. My heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of my chest, and my lungs burned with every gasping breath, but I couldn’t slow down. Not even for a second.The forest around me seemed endless. The trees blurred together, a maze of shadows and flickering light as I sprinted through the undergrowth. Every time I thought I’d found a path, it disappeared, swallowed up by the d
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 47- The Wrath of an Alpha
I returned home late that night, the full moon casting an eerie glow over the mansion as I approached. The cold night air clung to my skin, but there was something else—something in the atmosphere that felt wrong. Tension. Panic. As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I noticed the frantic movements of the guards, their heads turning in every direction, their eyes wide with fear. It was as though they were searching for something—or someone. I could hear Marcus’s voice, loud and angry, cutting through the night air like a blade.“*How could you let her out of your sight?*” Marcus was yelling at the top of his lungs, his voice dripping with fury. He stood at the center of the courtyard, surrounded by a handful of guards, all of whom looked like they’d rather be anywhere else but here. “She’s just a weak human girl!” Marcus continued, his voice sharp with frustration. “You’re telling me none of you could keep an eye on *one* person?”I froze, my heart dropping into my stomach.
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 48- A Heart Divided
**Isabella’s POV**I crouched beneath the thick brush, my heart racing, my breathing shallow and uneven. The cool night air clung to my skin, but I couldn’t feel anything except the terror gripping me from the inside. My hands shook uncontrollably as I pressed myself deeper into the shadows of the bushes, praying I wouldn’t be found.It’s been a whole day since I’m running to save my life. I didn’t know things would turn out like this, because if I had, I would have rather stayed in the mansion. My feet’s were hurting and bleeding. I couldn’t keep on running in this condition. I didn’t want to die like this. The presence of wolves lingered nearby, their growls low and menacing. I could hear them moving through the forest, their paws rustling against the fallen leaves, their breaths loud and predatory. Every muscle in my body tensed as I held my breath, desperately hoping they wouldn’t come any closer.I didn’t know what to do. I had barely escaped Darius’s attack earlier—only because
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 49- Facing the Monster
I don’t know how I could have fallen asleep in a situation like that, but somehow, the exhaustion took over. My body gave in to the overwhelming fear and stress, and before I knew it, I had lost consciousness. The sounds of the forest, the growls, the rustling of leaves—they all faded into nothing as the darkness swallowed me whole. When I opened my eyes again, the world around me felt different. The thick fog of sleep clung to my mind, making it hard to focus. Slowly, I blinked, my vision clearing, and I realized I was still in the same place, hidden under the bushes. But something was different. I could feel it.I froze when I saw him.Darius. He was sitting right in front of me, his massive figure casting a shadow over the ground. My heart jumped into my throat, and I gasped, my whole body going cold with fear. He was so close—too close. “Good morning, sunshine,” he said, his voice low and mocking.I couldn’t move. I couldn’t breathe. His dark, piercing eyes bore into mine, and
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 50- The Hunt
I ran. My legs burned with exhaustion, every step feeling heavier than the last, but I couldn’t stop. I wouldn’t stop. The forest around me blurred as I pushed forward, dodging branches and tree roots, the sound of my breath coming in ragged gasps. The night air felt cold against my skin, but the sweat running down my back made everything feel sticky and suffocating.Behind me, I could hear him—Darius.His footsteps were steady, controlled, like he was toying with me. He didn’t need to run, didn’t need to chase me with urgency because he knew he would catch me. This was a game to him, a twisted, cruel game. And I was the prey.The further I ran, the more the forest seemed to close in on me. The darkness pressed against my vision, making it hard to see, hard to breathe. My heart pounded in my chest, every beat filled with desperation. *Keep running. Don’t stop. Don’t look back.*But no matter how fast I ran, how far I tried to push myself, I couldn’t shake the feeling that Darius was
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 51- The Hunt for Her
**Aiden’s POV**I moved through the forest at a speed that made the wind howl in my ears. My heart pounded, anger and fear coursing through my veins like fire. Every step I took was fueled by one thought, one singular purpose: finding Isabella. I didn’t care who stood in my way or what I had to do to get to her.The moment I found out she was gone, something inside me snapped. The rage I’d been holding back for so long burst free, and the only thing keeping me from losing control completely was the cold determination to find her before it was too late.My wolf was close to the surface, ready to tear apart anyone who got between me and her. Every instinct screamed to hunt her down, to protect her, to make sure she was safe. But there was another fear gnawing at the back of my mind, one I couldn’t shake.*What if I’m too late?*I pushed that thought away, refusing to let it take root. I couldn’t afford to think like that. Isabella was strong, even if she didn’t know it yet. She could su
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 52- Battle of the Packs
I turned to leave, gripping Isabella’s trembling body against mine, but before I could take another step, a bone-chilling howl echoed through the forest. The sound reverberated through the trees, making the air around us feel thicker, heavier. I froze, my instincts flaring to life as I recognized that sound. Darius’s pack.*He came prepared.*The hairs on the back of my neck stood on end, and I felt Isabella flinch against me. She clutched my arm tightly, her body shaking, but I kept my focus sharp. My eyes scanned the dark woods, searching for movement. I could hear the distant padding of paws on the ground, the low growls of wolves closing in from every direction.I couldn’t fight them all. Not with Isabella by my side.I took a deep breath and tilted my head back, letting out a loud, piercing howl. The sound cut through the night air, an urgent call to my pack. They were nearby, searching for Isabella, scouring the forest just like I had been. It wouldn’t take them long to find us

The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Welcome Dinner
As the sun dipped below the horizon, bathing the orphanage in hues of orange and pink, my mother stood in the doorway, her expression a mix of hesitancy and determination. “Will you both stay for dinner?” she asked, her voice carrying a hopeful note that tugged at my heart. I glanced at Aiden, expecting resistance. He was a man of particular habits, unaccustomed to impromptu changes or the chaotic warmth of my past life. But to my surprise, he nodded. “We’d love to,” he said, his voice calm and reassuring. My mother’s smile lit up her face, and something inside me unfurled—a tension I hadn’t realized I was holding. “Wonderful,” she said. “I’ll set up the dining hall.” As she turned to make preparations, I felt Aiden’s hand squeeze mine briefly. “Are you happy?” he whispered, his eyes searching mine for any sign of distress. “Yes,” I replied, more to convince myself than him. “It’ll be good to catch up with everyone.” He nodded, his gaze lingering on me a moment longer before he r

The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession The Threshold of Memories
Aiden’s hand was firm around mine, grounding me when my legs threatened to buckle under the weight of anticipation. The creak of the iron gates of the orphanage echoed through my chest, rattling my nerves. Each step felt like walking through molasses, my body betraying me despite my mind’s desperate commands to move forward.“Relax, Isabella, or you’re going to scare them,” Aiden said softly, his voice like a warm breeze cutting through the storm inside me. His lips curved into a slight smile, though I could see the undercurrent of concern in his gaze.I swallowed the lump in my throat and nodded, clutching his arm as if letting go would pull me back into the void of uncertainty. Aiden took the first step inside, and I followed, my breath hitching with every inch closer to the truth.The orphanage hadn’t changed much, at least not from what I remembered in fragments—peeling paint on the walls, the faint scent of lavender detergent that lingered in the air, and the distant sound of chi
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Waste
As spring began to thaw the chill of winter, the team found a temporary respite from their relentless battle against the Black Sun. The fortress in the Pyrenees had been dismantled, and the immediate threat of The Ascendancy had been averted. However, the remnants of the dark network remained a persistent threat, and the team’s mission was far from complete. In their base, the atmosphere was a mix of cautious optimism and ongoing vigilance. The team had succeeded in disrupting the Black Sun’s most recent plans, but their influence was still widespread. The remnants continued to operate in the shadows, their intentions shrouded in secrecy. Isabella, Clyde, Elise, Alessandro, and Marta gathered in the war room, reviewing their latest intelligence. The walls were covered with maps, photographs, and documents detailing the Black Sun’s remaining operatives and activities. Elise, looking over a set of decrypted messages, spoke with concern. “We’ve uncovered several new locations tied to
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Silence
The drive to the orphanage was quiet. The mood we had woken up with had been ruined, leaving a tension thick enough to slice through. I could see Aiden’s jaw tightening every few seconds, a telltale sign of his internal struggle. He was controlling himself—for me, I knew that much. It was his way. Always measured, always holding back. The world outside the window blurred past, a mix of early autumn trees and gray skies, but I couldn’t focus on any of it. My chest felt heavy, guilt coiling tight around my ribs. After fifteen minutes of silence, the tension became unbearable. I glanced over at him and then back at the passing scenery, forcing myself to speak. “I’m sorry,” I said softly, my voice barely breaking the stillness. Aiden’s eyes flicked toward me, his expression unreadable. His gaze returned to the road almost instantly. “For what?” he asked, his tone polite but distant, as though he were forcing himself to remain calm. I swallowed hard, my throat dry. “For putting you in
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Heavy Silence
“Isabella,” he said, his tone low and firm, “you make the rules here. You break them. No one is superior to you—not Marcus, not me, not anyone in this pack.” The weight of his words settled over me, heavy and unfamiliar. “But… the rules exist for a reason,” I argued weakly, my voice wavering. “And sometimes,” he said, glancing at me briefly, “those rules don’t account for the unique situations we face. That’s why you’re the Luna. To lead. To make the hard calls. The pack looks to you for guidance, not to follow every rule blindly.” I shook my head, my chest tight. “I don’t feel like a Luna,” I admitted. “I don’t feel like someone they should look up to.” Aiden’s hand tightened slightly on my thigh, his warmth seeping through the fabric of my jeans. “That’s because you keep doubting yourself,” he said, his voice softer now. “You’re still thinking like an outsider. But you’re not anymore. You’re one of us, Isabella. More than that, you’re the luna, my mate. It’s time you start actin

The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Breaking the Rules
Just as we were about to leave the table, Marcus entered the room. The first thing his eyes caught was our intertwined fingers. I instinctively tried to pull my hand back, but Aiden tightened his grip, his fingers pressing firmly against mine as though silently daring me to let go.Marcus raised a brow, his lips curving into a knowing smirk as he cleared his throat. “Someone is clearly in a good mood after whipping everyone’s ass,” he drawled.Aiden rolled his eyes, the action subtle but unmistakable. “Oh, please,” he muttered, his tone dripping with irritation.We both knew what Marcus was referring to. Aiden had spent the better part of past two weeks commanding everyone on how to deal with Darius. The tension between him and Darius was palpable, almost suffocating at times. I had told him countless times to forget about the man, to let it go, but Aiden had been resolute. I could still remember the dangerous glint in his eyes as he’d said, “I would never forgive anyone for touching
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession The Next Morning
“Do you remember what day it is today?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, but I could feel the weight of my words lingering in the quietness.Aiden’s response was slow, deliberate. He raised one brow in that way he did, and just that one look made my heart skip a beat. If it was a sin to look this handsome first thing in the morning, then he was, without a doubt, the greatest sinner of them all. I found myself stuttering, nerves dancing through me as I tried to find the courage to bring up the topic I’d been holding onto.“You said you’d take me to the orphanage,” I said, my voice hesitant, unsure if this was the right time. Would he remember? Would he care as much as I did?For a moment, he didn’t say anything. Silence crept in, and with it, a growing sense of unease. My mind spiraled, convinced I’d messed everything up. Just as the words started to rise in my throat, desperate to cover up the silence, Aiden leaned forward and pressed a gentle kiss on my cheek. His arms wrapp
