Semua Bab Alpha Lucian Obsession: Bab 11 - Bab 20

ARIA“I’m here to make you an offer.” “What?” “If you agree to reject all others and be mine and mine alone, I’ll make sure no one ever treats you like this again.” I swallowed. It sounded like a good offer. “I want a peaceful society,” he continued. “That’s what I’m advocating for.” His gaze bore into mine. “As the next Alpha of Alphas.” I froze. Alpha of Alphas. It was glaringly obvious what this was all about. I shook my head. “I won’t be an object,” I murmured. “Not even for you.” I half expected those words to make him leave, but instead, his grip tightened slightly as if he had anticipated that answer. “Well,” he murmured. “That just makes you even more interesting, doesn’t it?” It really does… I swallowed hard, feeling my pulse hammer against my ribs. Do something! My mind screamed frantically. Anything! But the weight of his hand on my wrist was unbearable, fucking painful… It held me in place like steel. “Let me go, you piece of shit.” I cussed in my mind. None of my

LUCIANThe whiskey burned its way down my throat, leaving a fiery trail that numbed everything—everything except the one thing I needed gone the most.Aria.Her name throbbed in my skull like a fucking curse. Why the hell couldn’t I block out her scent? It was maddening, wrapping around me even when she wasn’t here.I rolled the glass between my fingers, exhaling slowly through my nose, but it didn’t help. Nothing did. I could still smell her. It clung to my skin, curled into my lungs like a drug, saturating the space between my ribs until my entire body hummed with restless energy.Fuck.I slammed the glass down a little too hard, the amber liquid inside sloshing dangerously close to the rim. This was ridiculous. I shouldn’t be thinking about her. Shouldn’t be craving her. I had been through hours of this shit already, and it wasn’t letting up.My fingers curled into my palm. If I was still feeling like this, then self-control was a fucking myth.I wasn’t drunk. Not yet.But I was bu

LUCIAN“Even at that, Maren!” Tobias scolded impatiently. “You of all people should have dissuaded her the moment she came to you.” I barely spared them a glance. My patience had already worn thin. Without another word, I broke into a jog, heading straight for the training grounds. “And to you, Lucian!” Tobias called, quickly following. “What the fuck is going on? Why wasn’t this rogue put to death? Why is she so fucking important?” A slow smile curled on my lips. “When you see her,” I said, almost amused by his questioning. “you’ll understand.” Suddenly a bloodcurdling scream reached my ears. Who could that be…? My chest clenched as the recognition hit me. If it was coming from the training grounds…Aria. I could only imagine the horror she was going through. I didn't think of stopping one bit as I ran. My legs pushed forward with brutal force, and my heartbeat thundering in my ears.What was going on down there?I squinted but all I could see was the empty yard. Where the fuck w

ARIA Being manhandled like this should terrify me. The sheer force behind his grip… he didn’t hesitate to slam that bastard’s head into the floor—it should make me fear him. But I didn’t. I should be trembling, but all I felt was satisfaction. A sick kind of gratification at his definition of punishment— at the blood that dropped from his knuckles… It shouldn’t make heat pool low between my thighs. Why was his anger so intoxicating? Why did the violence in his hands feel like justice? Goddess, Aria, what the hell is wrong with you? This was toxic—every thought, every thrill that shot down my spine. And yet, I couldn't stop. Before long, Lucian began to sniff the air hungrily. I froze. Could it be that… he sensed my arousal? Then, to my absolute horror, a low, knowing chuckle rumbled from his chest. He knew. I squeezed my eyes shut, desperate to vanish into thin air. But Lucian wasn’t done. “I didn’t think you’d enjoy the spank that much,” he murmured wi

ARIANot without catching a glimpse of his expression before it shut completely. That was for yesterday's embarrassment. I could see the cloud of smoke over his head. Meanwhile, Aaron set his bag down, already moving toward me to check my injuries, but the cool guy’s eyes never left me. His gaze was unsettling. Not threatening, but sharp, like he was studying something far more complex than just a beaten-up omega. It made me a little nervous. Then, just as Aaron started fussing over me, the cool guy finally spoke. “Lucian.” His voice was calm yet firm. “We need to talk.” My spine straightened. Lucian was… in here? I turned sharply—only to find him standing in the doorway, arms crossed, leaning casually against the frame like he owned the damn place. I scowled. “You—” Lucian grinned. “Miss me?” I did not miss him. Not even a little. Aaron was already by my side, his medical bag open, hands moving efficiently as he reached for supplies. But I wasn’t looking at him. My gaze had be
