All Chapters of The Alpha's Damnation: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

The space between them shattered.Adolphus crushed his mouth to hers, hot, demanding, angry.Seraphina gasped, but it was swallowed by him—by his lips, his breath, his body pressing her deeper into the wall. His grip on her arms was tight, almost bruising, as if he was afraid she’d slip away. As if he couldn’t bear the thought of letting her go.She should push him away. She should fight. But when his hands slid down her arms, gripping her waist, pulling her closer, she was lost.Her fingers curled into his shirt, holding on like he was the only thing keeping her upright. Maybe he was.A low, guttural growl rumbled in his chest as he angled her head, deepening the kiss, taking, devouring. His body was fire against hers, heat spreading, scorching, burning through every protest, every lingering bit of hate.She hated him.And she wanted him.Her own hands betrayed her, sliding up his chest, fingers twisting in his hair. He groaned at the touch, pressing harder against her, his hips pinni

Panic flared in his chest, and his eyes scanned the area frantically. That was when he heard it—a heart-stopping wail of pain.His blood ran cold as the scent of fear and blood filled his nostrils. Without hesitation, he bolted towards the sound, his heart pounding in his chest.Seraphina had tried to run, but the moment she stepped out of the river, she was met with a growl that froze her in place.From the shadows emerged a massive wild boar, its tusks gleaming menacingly as it charged at her.Wolves and boars had long been enemies, the boars known for their viciousness and relentless attacks on the wolves' territory. And now, one of those beasts had cornered her.The boar struck, and Seraphina barely managed to dodge, but its tusk grazed her leg, tearing through her flesh.She cried out in pain, stumbling backward, her hands trembling as she tried to fend off the creature with a fallen branch.It wasn’t enough. The boar was relentless, it's dark eyes filled with rage as it charged a

Adolphus stormed back into the room, the door slamming shut behind him.Seraphina flinched at the sound but quickly steeled herself, glaring at him as he loomed over her.“What do you want now?” she spat, her voice sharp despite the pain in her leg.Adolphus didn’t answer right away. His chest rose and fell with heavy breaths, his hands clenched at his sides.He looked at her like he was waging a war within himself, like he was barely holding something back.“You were going to leave,” he finally said, his voice low but filled with something dangerous.She scoffed. “Of course I was! You kidnapped me, Adolphus! You ripped me away from my home, my life—everything! And now you expect me to just sit here and accept it?” Her golden eyes blazed with fury. “I will never accept this. Never.”His jaw tightened, and he took a slow, deliberate step forward. “You don’t understand, Seraphina. I had no choice.”“No choice?” she laughed bitterly, though it came out shaky. “You always have a choice. Bu

She didn’t want to speak to him. Didn’t want to acknowledge him.But her body had other ideas. Hunger gnawed at her insides, and despite the storm raging in her mind, she reached for the plate.Adolphus said nothing, either.He simply set the tray down and stepped back, watching as she picked at the food.It was simple—bread, stew, water—but it was warm. He had brought it for her.The realization unsettled her.She focused on eating, pretending he wasn’t there, pretending her hands weren’t trembling from exhaustion.But Adolphus wasn’t fooled.His gaze swept over her, taking in every detail—her paleness, the stiffness in her posture, the way she barely moved her injured leg.Without a word, he crouched beside her, his fingers reaching for her bandages.Seraphina flinched.“I’m just checking,” he murmured. His voice was calm, careful. Like he was dealing with a wounded animal.She hated it.Hated that he saw her like this. Weak. Helpless.But she said nothing.He peeled back the bandage

Seraphina met his gaze, fire burning in her veins.“Why do you really want me here, Adolphus?” she asked, her voice steady, but her heart thundered beneath the surface.He didn’t answer right away. His smirk faltered, a flicker of something raw passing through his eyes.“Another question,” he said smoothly, leaning back against the wall.“No,” she snapped. “Answer me.”His jaw tightened. For a moment, she thought he’d brush her off again, but then—“Because you’re mine.”Seraphina let out a harsh laugh, shaking her head. “That’s a stupid answer.”Adolphus’s lips parted—then he closed them again, exhaling softly through his nose. His head tilted back for a beat before his voice broke the silence.“Because without you, I’m nothing,” he said, his tone rough, like the words were clawing their way out. “I’ll be incomplete.”Seraphina’s breath hitched.“I need you to complete me,” he continued. “To be my other half.”Her heart slammed against her ribs, but she bit the inside of her cheek, r
