All Chapters of Bound to the Alpha: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Veronica’s POVMarcus’s lips curled into a wicked grin as he saw me readying myself for a fight. He stepped forward, his eyes narrowed, I could see he clearly enjoyed the fear I was projecting. I stood my ground, knowing I needed to get him down to be able to escape. I lunged myself at him with the nail, the hope of catching him off guard. He stuck out his hand and grabbed me by my wrist. He was faster than I was. He sidestepped my attack with ease, then he tilted his head slightly. Then he shook it slightly with an evil grin. His grip was like iron, he then twisted my arm painfully. It forced me to release my grip on the nail. The sound of the nail hitting the ground echoed through the hall.“Going to give you an A for effort. But, remember I am stronger, faster. For a mutt I like your determination.” He sneered, yanking me closer. His breath was hot against my ear as he whispered, “You’re not going anywhere.”As I struggled against him, I kicked and tried to claw my way free, but I

Veronica’s POVI was alone with my thoughts and the growing dread that twisted in my gut. The dim light flickered, making the small room feel like I would never get out of this horrible place. Trying to steady my breathing as the cold of the concrete floor seeped deeper into my skin. I tried to stay calm but the terror of what might come next was overwhelming.Minutes turned into hours, each second increasing my fear. Just as I was starting to think that nothing else would happen that day, that I was given a chance to gather my strength, I heard footsteps again. These were different, heavier, and filled with dark intent that made my heart race even faster.The sound of the door opening sent chills down my spine once again. I caught the sight of Marcus. His eyes locked with mine, but this gaze was something else. It made me feel like I was some sort of prey that he was hunting. His lips curved into that same twisted grin I had seen before. He closed the door behind him, then he locked

Logan’s POVWith a growl I tackled her to the ground, pinning her beneath me. She struggled, her eyes widened with fear for the first time, but I didn’t care. She had crossed a line that she could never return from.“Logan, come on. You won’t really kill me. What happened to that promise-” She started to plead, but I silenced her with a vicious snarl.“Promises are made to be broken.” I grabbed the pole that Marcus had hit me with, “This is for Veronica.” Lifting the pole into the air, I jabbed it through her chest. “You will never be able to hurt anyone, ever again.”She gasped for air, trying to remove the pole but it was no use. The wolfsbane had begun taking its toll. With my last bit of strength I collapsed beside her, the world spinning around me. As I took a big breath, the scent of Veronica was fading slightly. Opening my eyes, I jumped up and followed her scent. The scent trail led me into the building. The doors of the empty cells passed me, my heart pounded in my chest. I

Marcus’s POVThe sun was busy rising in the horizon, casting long shadows over the driveway as I approached my home. The way back was long and a mixture of anxiety and exhaustion made its way to the surface. My leg was injured in the fight with Logan and his pet. As the final stretch came to an end, the scent of my pack hit my nostrils.It didn’t bring any comfort, I knew what awaited me. It would surely not be a warm welcome. The sound of the wolves waking up echoed over the grounds, the pack started to move about readying themselves for the day ahead. Making my way up the stairs towards the door, I heard whistling coming from the garden. I knew that whistle. Ethan.With a limp I made my way to the garden to meet Ethan. I knew he knew I was back. I would have smelt me from a mile away, with the blood dripping from my leg there was no way he wouldn't know. I spotted Ethan standing near the fountain, his broad shoulders rigid. He was a big figure, towering over most of the pack membe

Veronica’s POVAthina’s voice was soothing yet firm, “Why do you doubt it? When there is a bond between mates there is no use trying to deny it. When a bond is decided then rank, status, even rules we set for ourselves fall away. If your heart burns for him, it is because it knows the truth. The Moon Goddess will never make a mistake. He is your mate, whether you want to accept it or not.” I shook my head, trying to grasp the reality, “But, Logan… He is respected, powerful, he has everything he will ever need. Why would a powerful Alpha be destined to be with a rogue like me? I’m weak, I’ve been wolfless until now.”“I’ve noticed that you underestimate yourself, my lovely. To be strong isn’t just about physical power, or having a wolf. It is if you are determinant, resilient, the will to survive, and the courage to accept who you truly are. And my dear, you have shown all of that. Now, with me by your side, your potential is limitless.”I lay there, silent, my mind running wild with
