All Chapters of Sold To The Stongest Alpha: Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

MAXINEI thought he was going to kiss me. But then he turned back to the stove and poured the vegetables into the pot. “Thanks,” he murmured.“You’re welcome,” I replied, trying to steady my racing heart. Get a hold of yourself, Maxine!We worked together in silence. I watched as he stirred the contents in the pot, concentrating on that simple task. I felt a surge of affection for him. I hadn’t realized how much I needed this. I needed him to be this way, so normal and human and flawed.Eventually, the meal was ready. Ronan insisted on serving it himself, and I let him. I sat back down at the small kitchen table. He carefully arranged the food on two plates.He brought them over, setting one in front of me with a grin. “Voila,” he said like he was presenting a masterpiece.I laughed softly. “Not bad, Chef.”He took a seat across from me, and for a moment, we just looked at each other. He looked content. We began to eat. The food was surprisingly good considering his cooking skills.I

MAXINE“How can you say that? He's your brother.” I said.Ronan’s jaw tightened slightly, but I saw him try to remain calm. “Maxine,” he started, “I think you're thinking too much about this. You needed to eat. We just had a meal and Liam…”He paused and sighed, “I gave him a choice to join me. But, my brother is stubborn. If he's not Alpha he doesn't want to,” Ronan laughed drily. “Liam made his choices.”“Did he?” I asked, my voice rising slightly. I didn't want to yell though. “Or did we make them for him?”Ronan’s eyes narrowed at me. He took a deep breath and nodded slowly. “You’re right. I just came out from nowhere. The villain who came to ruin everything.” he said.“Ronan—”“But what’s done is done.” He cut me off, “We can’t change it now, can we? So, all we can do is move forward and face it.”I wanted to argue and tell him that it wasn’t that simple. We couldn’t just move on as if nothing had happened. But the truth was, I didn’t know how to fix this. I didn’t know how

MAXINEAfter I couldn't cry anymore, I was left alone with the silence. My mind trailed back to Ronan and how there had been a shift in his mood after he saw how I reacted to Liam. The smile hadn't quite reached his eyes anymore.I noticed but I was swimming in my guilt to even bother about it. He had been different since Liam walked in and his warmth was replaced by a kind of polite distance. He didn't want to show me the extent of how displeased he was.I sat up in the bed. Maybe I was overthinking it. Maybe he was just busy and his responsibilities caught up with him and clouded his mind. But a small voice in the back of my mind wouldn’t stop whispering that it was something more. Ronan's change in mood had to do with me.It had been a few hours since the kitchen. I had replayed the scene in my head over and over. I was trying to understand what I could have done differently. I knew Ronan had noticed my reaction when I saw Liam. How could he not? It had been written all over my fac

RONANI hoped she was beginning to understand what I was trying to show her. That there was more to me, than just the conflicts and pain.After a while, we made our way back to the entrance where the opening ceremony was about to start. The staff and a few pack members had gathered. I stepped forward about to address them as formality demanded but before I spoke, I glanced at Maxine.“Today marks a new beginning for our pack,” I began, “This hospital is a symbol of our strength and our willingness to move forward. It’s a place of healing, not just for our bodies but for our spirits. A place where we can come together, no matter our differences and work toward a better future.”I paused, looking out at the crowd. “I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished here. And I’m grateful to every one of you for your dedication and hard work. This is our victory, all of us.”Surprisingly, they began to clap, genuine smiles on their faces. I turned back to Maxine, hoping that maybe, she was beginning t

MAXINEShe chuckled. “I’m so happy to be that person,” she said. “So, tell me, what else has been going on?”I hesitated for a moment, wondering where to begin. “There’s been a lot,” I admitted. “Liam’s been brought back here in the mansion and he’s not doing well. He feels betrayed and I don’t know how to fix it. Ronan got his issues.”Zel leaned in closer. “And how are you feeling in all of this?”I let out a breath. “Conflicted,” I confessed. “I’m questioning everything. I feel like I’m constantly being pulled in opposite directions. One minute I think I know where I stand. And then the next, I’m questioning everything.”Zel reached out and squeezed my hand. “It’s okay to feel conflicted. It's like my mother likes to say, nobody truly knows the right things to do. You gotta take it one step at a time.”Zel had this nostalgic look on her face and I immediately felt bad. She was apart from her mother because of me.Still, I nodded, taking her words seriously. “Thanks, Zel. I needed t
