All Chapters of An Alpha for the Alpha: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

*Jonas* Afterwards, I can't decide which part I liked best. Was it the feeling of completeness I felt when we were joined as one when kissing? Was it the primitive rhythm of Typhon's body as he pleasured me? Certainly, I can't discount the explosive climax I'd felt. 'What a wild night, Cana,' I think, addressing my wolf. 'One to remember, Jonas,' Cana replies within my mind, his voice a comforting echo. But now, as I lay in Typhon’s strong arms, the fresh breeze from the window caressing our bodies, I think that this might be the best of all. He is so warm and close, and I can hear his heartbeat as it slows to its normal, sedate pace. I can smell the salt on his skin and the passion in the air. And there is something so right about it all, as if I've waited my whole life just for this moment. 'Can you feel this too, Cana?' I ask, sharing my feeling of rightness with my wolf. 'I feel your happiness, Jonas. It's a warm glow,' Cana responds, his presence a steady anchor within m

*Jonas* The air thrumms with anticipation. The cave, a natural amphitheater, is transformed. Soft candlelight flickers, casting dancing shadows. Wildflowers, vibrant against the muted stone, are arranged in elegant bouquets. The scent of pine and damp earth mingles with the blossoms' perfume. A low, mournful cello piece fills the space. Typhon stands near the rock altar, his usual intensity softened by quiet joy. He wears a simple dark tunic, moonlight catching the silver threads. His features are relaxed, a gentle smile playing on his lips as he watches me approach. I wear a deep green tunic, chosen by Hunter. It feels right, comfortable. Cana's approval is a comforting presence. Fire Moon, Donahue, and Donavon stand nearby, their faces alight with happiness. Even their boisterousness is muted. Hunter hovers, ensuring perfection. As I approach Typhon, a hush falls. The only sounds are the cello and dripping water. Typhon takes my hand, his touch sending warmth through me. "Ready

*Typhon* Later that evening, I sit in the dark of my study, staring out the window, lost in thought. I can feel the weight of the world pressing down on me, but it’s not just the usual burdens. It’s the knowledge that Jonas said he loved me. An awesome responsibility, indeed. Deep down, I’ve always known he cared for me. But it’s been ages since I even considered the concept of love. I honestly didn’t think I’d recognize it when it finally showed its face. But here I am, wrestling with the truth of Jonas’s feelings, and it’s real. “Typhon?” I look up, my heart pounding just a little. Jonas stands in the doorway, hand raised, ready to knock again on the door jamb. “Why are you sitting here in the dark?” he asks, and I can see the concern flickering in his eyes. “Just thinking,” I reply, trying to keep my voice steady. “Oh.” He hesitates, a million questions swimming in his gaze, but instead, he smiles hesitantly. “Would you like me to light a candle?” I shake my head, slowl

*Typhon* Something’s wrong. I feel it in my bones. "Where is he?" I hiss, the urgency gnawing at my gut like a ravenous wolf. Fire Moon shakes her head, her usually sharp gaze now clouded with concern. She pulls out her pocket watch, the ticking sound echoing in the tense silence. "I don’t know. The boat arrived an hour ago. Connor should have been here to meet them." I curse under my breath, frustration bubbling up like a storm at sea. "Jonas told me that Connor is always punctual." "Could he know that he knows we are on to him?" she suggests, her voice a whisper edged with disbelief. "Impossible." I lift my telescope to my eye, focusing on the beach. A small boat has dropped anchor about twenty yards out to sea. There isn’t much of a crew… so far, we’ve only spotted two men on deck. One of them clutches a pocket watch, checking it at frequent intervals. Cerberus, lurking in the shadows of my mind, growls low, a rumbling sound that vibrates through me. ‘You’re letting this

*Jonas* Once on the beach, I realize that the channel waters are not as calm as I thought… and it isn't the wind that provides the turbulence. A small boat I recognize as Connor's is moored close to shore, and the soft crunch of sand under my feet soon proves that we are not alone on the beach. "Where the bloody hell have you been?" I whirl around and blink in surprise. The voice sounds as if it belongs to a large, burly sort of fellow, but the man who has just stepped into a shaft of moonlight is slender and disturbingly elegant. Cana is crowning in my head. Connor jerks his head toward the boat and begins wading out into the water, dragging me along with him. "I was unavoidably detained." The other man peruses me rudely. "He's quite fetching, but hardly unavoidable." "Not so fetching," Connor says derisively, "but quite married to a rogue who has been annoying me, he works for getting him here so I can finish him off." I gasp and stumble to my knees, soaking my pants. I stag
