The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 66- Bound Together
His eyes... they weren’t the same anymore. The moment I questioned him, the moment I asked why he had done this to me, something shifted in his gaze. A flicker of emotion danced in his eyes—something raw, something I couldn’t quite place—but it was gone as quickly as it had appeared. He stepped forward, his movements slow, calculated, and I instinctively backed away. The distance between us evaporated within seconds, and soon, he was standing right behind me. I didn’t turn to face him, but I could see his reflection in the mirror—tall, imposing, his eyes dark with something I could only describe as dangerous. He was staring at the bite mark on my neck, the very one he had placed there with such intensity that it sent shivers down my spine. His lips parted, and he spoke, his voice low, almost a growl. “You don’t know?” he asked, his words barely above a whisper. Confusion washed over me. *Know what?* Was I supposed to understand why he had done this? His fingertips brushed the bite

**Aiden's POV** I closed the door behind me with more force than necessary, the soft click louder than it should have been in the otherwise silent hallway. My breathing was ragged, uneven, and my heart pounded in my chest like it was trying to escape. I leaned against the wall for a moment, closing my eyes and willing myself to calm down. *What was I thinking of doing to her?* The tension in my body was unbearable, every muscle taut, every instinct screaming at me to go back into that room. But I couldn’t. Not now. Not after I had barely held myself back. She didn’t realize the gravity of what had just happened, didn’t know the storm that was brewing beneath the surface. But I did. I had marked her. The beast within me roared, hungry for more. The bond had been sealed, and with it came a connection stronger than anything I had ever felt before. It clawed at me, demanding more, pushing me to take her, to make her truly mine in every way. But that wasn’t why I had walked out. I

**Isabella's POV** The warm water cascaded down my skin, washing away the grime and the pain of the last few days, though it couldn’t erase the marks left beneath the surface. I let the steam envelop me, the heat soothing my sore muscles and loosening the tightness in my chest. Every part of me ached, not just from the physical wounds but from the emotional weight of it all. Aiden's bite still throbbed, a constant reminder of the bond we now shared. I closed my eyes, leaning my head back against the edge of the tub. The silence in the room was comforting, but my thoughts were anything but. They swirled and twisted, a tangled mess of confusion, anger, and something else I wasn’t ready to confront yet. The heat wrapped around me like a protective blanket, and I allowed myself to sink further into the water, wishing it could wash away the heaviness that clung to my heart. But no amount of warmth could erase what had happened between Aiden and me, no amount of water could cleanse the b

He had said he would wait for me outside. But as I glanced at the clock, I realized it had been almost two hours. There was no way he would still be there. An alpha like him, waiting for me? The thought seemed absurd. I took a deep breath, steeling myself before I turned the knob and opened the door. And then I froze. There, leaning against the wall just outside my door, was Aiden. His broad shoulders were pressed against the wooden frame, his arms crossed over his chest, and his eyes—those intense, amber eyes—were trained on me the moment the door opened. He hadn’t moved. He hadn’t left. He had been waiting this whole time. My breath caught in my throat, my heart skipping a beat as our eyes locked. He looked… different. There was a quiet intensity about him, something more controlled but no less dangerous. The air between us felt heavy, charged with an unspoken tension that neither of us acknowledged but both of us felt. I swallowed hard, trying to push down the wave of emo

"Come, let's eat something first," Aiden said, his voice calm yet carrying that unmistakable edge of authority. His gaze lingered on my neck, where the bite mark—his mark—was hidden beneath my hair. There was an intensity in his eyes that made my heart flutter. I nodded quietly, trying to appear composed. My hand moved instinctively to my hair, wanting to flick it back to cover the mark, to hide the evidence of his claim on me. But just as my fingers reached the strands, Aiden’s hand shot out, his fingers curling around my wrist with a firm, unyielding grip. The sudden contact startled me, and I gasped softly, looking up to meet his gaze. His eyes were dark, almost predatory, as they bore into mine. “I didn’t claim you to hide it, Isabella,” he said, his voice low and commanding. His words sent a shiver down my spine, and my heart skipped a beat at the possessiveness lacing his tone. “You’re my Luna now. I want everyone to know who you belong to and what position you hold.” I swallo

Last Updated : 2024-10-21The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 72- The Weight of Authority
I had never felt this much authority in my entire life. Every step I took, I could feel the eyes of the servants following me, but not in the way I had experienced before. This was different. Their gazes dropped to the ground in unison, as if they dared not make eye contact with me. Respect... or was it fear? I wasn’t sure. All I knew was that something had shifted, something irreversible.I stiffened at Aiden’s side, trying to make sense of it all, but the weight of their stares made my skin prickle. I could practically feel the intensity in the air as we passed through the corridor, the quiet shuffle of the servants moving aside as we approached. My instincts screamed at me to retreat, to slip into the shadows as I had always done, but Aiden’s hand slid down my waist, his grip tightening in an unspoken gesture of reassurance.His touch was firm, grounding me as if to say, *This is where you belong now.*The tension in my shoulders lessened ever so slightly at his touch, though my mi
Last Updated : 2024-10-22The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession 73- Power and Submission
As I sat there, Aiden's words echoed in my mind, sending a shiver down my spine. His possessive tone, the dominance in his voice, left me speechless. I wasn't sure how to respond, or if I even could. It wasn’t just the words he spoke, it was the he had said this, the undeniable pull that seemed to bind us closer with each passing moment. My heart pounded against my ribs as I picked at the food on my plate, my appetite long gone.The way his hand never left my waist during the meal, the way his fingers occasionally tightened as if reminding me of his presence, made my body react in ways I couldn’t understand. My mind warred between resistance and submission, between the desire to push him away and the need to stay close. Aiden had marked me. I was his now. And despite the fear that still simmered beneath the surface, a part of me had begun to accept that.I hated that part of myself.“Eat,” Aiden’s voice rumbled from beside me, pulling me from my thoughts. His tone was firm, but not ha

The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Fires Not Meant to Burn
Aiden’s gaze swept over me, his eyes a tempest of dark fire, each flicker holding back a storm of rage not meant for me, but threatening to spill out all the same. He was a fortress in turmoil, his facade barely containing the seething fury beneath. His jaw was set, his stance rigid, each muscle tensed as if ready to spring into a battle he was forced to withhold. “You shouldn’t be here, Isabella,” he said, his voice a low growl that vibrated with a barely restrained intensity. His eyes then darted to the two men who had shifted uncomfortably, their own eyes darting away from my gaze, clearly intimidated by Aiden’s overt protectiveness. I felt a perverse thrill at his possessiveness, a primal approval of his concern for my safety, yet I knew this was neither the time nor the place. Aiden cleared his throat, a sound meant to redirect my attention, and it snapped me back to the gravity of the situation. “No, I—” I started, stumbling over my words. The truth was treacherous territory

“That’s a relief,” he chuckled, his hand finding mine over the center console, giving it a gentle squeeze. “I’m glad she sees that my intentions are good.” I squeezed his hand back, the simple touch sending a current of gratitude through me. “She does. And it means the world to me that you were there, that you’re here now.” Aiden’s smile didn’t wane as he turned the car onto the highway, the sparse traffic allowing him a moment to glance my way. “I wouldn’t be anywhere else, Isabella. You know that.” I nodded, watching the scenery blur past us. The night was clear, the stars scattered across the sky like dusted silver, and I felt a pull to share more with him—to dive into the depths of my thoughts and emotions. “It’s just…” I hesitated, searching for the right words. “Today made me realize how much I’ve changed. How much we’ve changed, together. I used to feel like an outsider everywhere I went. But with you, I’m home.” Aiden’s grip on my hand tightened.We drove in comfort

The first sense that stirred as consciousness crept back was the emptiness on Aiden’s side of the bed. I didn’t remember what time we had fallen asleep, but the vague recollection of his arms wrapped securely around me lingered in my mind like the remnants of a comforting dream. However, the cool, vacant sheets next to me sharply snapped me back to reality. Opening my eyes to the morning light filtering through the curtains, I immediately searched the expanse of the bed for Aiden, but he wasn’t there. His absence was like a void. The lingering scent on his pillow was the only evidence of his presence from the night before. I rolled over, burying my face into it, inhaling deeply. His familiar scent—a mix of sandalwood and something uniquely Aiden—filled my senses, offering a temporary comfort. I lay there, the silence of the room enveloping me, letting the minutes tick by. With each second, the warmth of his scent waned, and the reality of his absence grew. Finally, I couldn’t bear t

The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession The Road Home
The car’s headlights cut through the darkness as we left the orphanage, the comforting presence of old friends and the familiar backdrop fading into the night. The drive back to the mansion that I’d slowly begun to call home was quieter than usual, yet filled with a resonant peace that settled around Aiden and me like a soft shawl.“I can’t believe how well today went,” I started, my voice tinged with wonder and relief. I glanced over at Aiden, who was focused on the road, the soft glow of the dashboard lights casting gentle shadows across his face. “It felt so good to talk with my mother about everything—well, almost everything.”Aiden’s slight smile grew as he listened, his eyes reflecting a warmth that drew me further into my recount. “And she seems to really like you,” I added, my tone lifting with pride.“That’s a relief,” he chuckled, his hand finding mine over the center console, giving it a gentle squeeze. “I’m glad she sees that my intentions are good.”I squeezed his hand ba
The Alpha’s Forbidden obsession Again
As we settled around the table, the buzz of conversation filling the room, I began to share my journey or should I say the lies I had build in my mind just in case for the moments like these. I spoke of the cities and the sights, my words painting a picture of freedom and discovery. But I carefully chose my words, the reasons why I had really left, and the secrets that Aiden and I shared. Aiden, meanwhile, ate quietly, his presence a steady calm next to my animated storytelling. Every now and then, he would chime in with a comment or a clarification, his voice smooth and engaging. The group was visibly taken with him, their questions turning from my travels to how we had met. “It’s actually quite a story,” Aiden began, the corners of his eyes crinkling in amusement. “You see, Isabella literally bumped into me in a coffee shop.” Laughter rippled around the table, and I felt a bubble of laugh making its way to my throat at the thought of Aiden making up a story of how we met. “I w

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
