Claimed by My Bully Alpha (by Anna Kendra) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152

Caleb’s POV

It was there again, that strange, unshakable connection between Aurora and Caroline. I couldn’t pretend I didn’t notice it this time. The way they seemed to feel each other’s pain, the silent exchange of thoughts that didn’t require words it was eerie. It wasn’t just a coincidence; it couldn’t be. But how the hell was I supposed to bring this up to het? After everything Aurora had already been through, dropping another unexplainable bomb on her felt…wrong.

Still, it gnawed at me. Should I tell her? Should I explain what I’ve noticed? Should I tell her what our friends and I had discovered not long ago about the Tamar Sisters?

1 sat on the edge of the bed, running my fingers through my hair, debating with myself. What good would it do to burden her with more questions when neither of us had answers? I sighed, looking over at her as she lay there, her face peacef once, her chest rising and falling steadily. It hit me then- what she needed wasn’t more mysteries to solve, but a break. Something normal. Somet

uman.

“Hey,” I said softly, leaning down toward her. She stirred, her eyes fluttering open, meeting mine with a soft smile.

“How about we go get some breakfast? Just you and me?”

Her smile widened, and she stretched lazily before sitting up. “God, I’m starving,” she said, her voice still a big groggy.

“Perfect. Let’s sneak out before Damien or Caroline wakes up,” I suggested, standing and offering her my hand.

She laughed lightly and took it, letting me help her out of bed. “You’re terrible, you know that?” she teased. “Caroline will kill us if we come back with crumbs and no food for them.”

“Well,” I said with a smirk, pulling her toward the door, “then we better make it worth it.”

Aurora chuckled softly, and together we left the room, our steps deliberately quiet. The silence of the house wrapped around us, but for the first time in days, it didn’t feel heavy. It felt like…a reprieve and maybe, just maybe, I could hold off on that conversation a little longer.

Together, Aurora and I head up to the dining area, the hum of voices and the rhythmic clinking of utensils filling the air as some of the night patrol guards return for their meal while the day guards prepare to take their place. I glance at Aurora, a faint smile tugging at my lips as I grab both our plates, nodding toward a quieter corner of the room. She raises an eyebrow but follows as I lead her to a separate room.

The door creaks softly as I push it open, revealing a terrace bathed in the soft glow of the morning sun. The expanse of the sea stretches before us, shimmering in the sunlight, its waves rolling lazily toward the horizon. Aurora halts in her tracks, her eyes widening as she takes it all in.

“Why haven’t I seen this place before?” she asks, her voice tinged with awe as she steps closer to the edge, her plate momentarily forgotten in her hands.

“This spot’s usually reserved for special dates or occasions,” I reply, leaning against the railing, watching her face light up as the breeze tousles her hair.

“Besides, during the day, it’s usually way too hot to sit out here. The sun can be brutal, and it’s easier to enjoy the view without sweating buckets.”

Aurora shakes her head, her lips curving into a soft smile. “It’s beautiful right now, though. Almost magical.” She turns to face me, her gaze lingering on mine.
