Default Charging Issue

When I first bought my 99 Dakota and I crank it the battery gauge jumps instantly to 14 volts and i've notice lately when cranking it slowly gets to 14 volts and when I came out this morning battery was dead so I changed battery and it crank but the gauge is still slowly getting to 14 volts. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
