CHAPTER 97

Keleigh’s POV

Throughout the day, I could not close my eyes. Even the time I tried to, only one person showed, appeared, and kept on taunting me in the name of Jake. Roman’s words kept pondering on my heart, reminding me of what he has said, reminding me that anytime from now, Jake could break in and I’ll be in extreme danger.

I sat down on my bed, staring into space as I just finished washing myself. I wanted to dry my hair but there was nothing in me. I had not eaten anything since morning, not the food they brought, nothing at all.

I fell down on the bed, closing my eyes quietly as I let the deep evening breeze blow in through my window. I needed to run, to leave this pack and find somewhere better, somewhere peaceful to restart everything.

Where Jake would never find me.

Where I won’t belong to anyone.

Where no one knew me much enough to be plotting something I had no idea on.

And where I won’t have someone trying to constantly hurt me because of someone I never cared o

    KeleighI was quite worried as I was walking towards the Alpha when I was suddenly brought to an halt. I turned to look at Roman immediately who held me like we had something going on with us. My brows furrowed immediately.“Be careful.” He started, looking quite worried. “We have a visitor.” He advised. I arched my brows as I tried to figure out what he was talking about by who could tell? It could be one of tactics to deceive me or maybe hold me back. I yanked off my hands off his and walked away.“Regardless, I am going to make you mine.” I heard him say and filled with irritation, I rolled my eyes. There was possibly no way I could listen to hIm. He had nothing good to offer me. I could however not help but wonder if the Alphas got to know what he really had in mind. I could not help but wonder if they knew what he was up to. I however shrugged the thoughts aside and hoped to see the visitor.I returned to my room almost immediately as the Alphas indeed had guests. An Alpha, I pre

    KeleighI cowered in fear as he was the last person I expected to see him. He looked so confident like he was truly going to achieve his mission and I felt a little worried. What on earth was going on?“I am here to take my Keleigh away.” He repeated and my brows furrowed. I had no idea what had come over him or what had suddenly brought about the change. I hoped he would leave and not try to do anything stupid. Of course, I knew how dangerous he was and I was certain Arnold and Ryker did not know what type of person he was and what length he could go to, to get whatever he wanted and the last thing I wanted was for me or anyone to be hurt for my sake.“We do not agree to this.” Arnold started and I nodded as I looked at them and then at Alpha Jake. I hoped he would listen to them and leave.“Yes, we do not agree to this. What relationship exists between you both? We cannot let you take her. We cannot let her go.” Ryker responded almost immediately.“We have… a lot in common. We have

    ~KeleighDealing with the reality of what had happened got me a little worked up and even though I tried to assure myself that nothing would happen to me, it was still so hard to get over it.“Nothing will happen to you. You will be fine. You will be safe.” He assured and I hoped it would really be so. I just wanted to be safe from him. I know how terrible he could be. I went on to tell him everything that went on between us and everything that happened.Ryker's brows furrowed immediately and I could tell he was quite upset at what I had just told him. His brows furrowed immediately as he stared at me.“Say something….” I finally spoke as his silence was killing me. “Are you upset with me?” I probed and he shook his head immediately. He held me even closer.“I am not upset with you. Nothing will happen to you. You will be fine. I am going to make sure I protect you as much as I can.” Ryker assured me and I nodded. I really did hope nothing would go wrong.Just as I was about to head b

I do not want any harm to come to me or any one of you.”“Come on. You do not have to think of it. Nothing is going to happen. Neither of them can do anything.” Ryker advised and placed his hands on my chin. He tried so hard to make me be calm but I did not want to. That is the last thing I wanted.“They can do anything.” I responded and took a few steps away from him and furrowed my brows.“I do not agree to this. You have no idea how this duo can he. Both of them are dangerously dangerous and I kid you not, they are quite violent. What if they both agree to come together and in the process, they try to harm me or do anything stupid?” I questioned, trying so hard to not look at him. Of course, there was no way I was taking the risk.I knew how dangerous they could be.“Nothing will happen. You just have to take your mind off it, you

    KeleighRetiring to my room for the night, I let out a sigh as I was quite exhausted. The day had been indeed hectic. Of course, we had fun and had a lot of enjoyment but it was still tiring. I had a gazillion thoughts running through my mind when I was suddenly stopped by Roman.My eyes widened in shock as he was the last person I expected to see. My brows arched even more as I was upset at the fact that he stopped me.“You have been avoiding me for days. What exactly happened? Did I do anything wrong to you?” He tried to touch me but I avoided his touch. That was the last thing I wanted. I rolled my eyes and crossed my hands.“Well…. I….” He continued.“I had a busy day. I do not have the luxury of time to waste here so I would appreciate it if you cut to the chase.” I responded almost immediately, losing my patience.“Well… I just wanted to k ow what has happened. You have been avoiding me. I just want to know what has gone wrong. Please, speak to me.” He pleaded.“I am not avoidin

    ~KeleighHappiness was an understatement of how I felt when Ryker and I walked. A thousand emotions flowed through my veins all at the same time. I was however surprised when he took me to the garden? Of course, it was the same place u had always been but this time it was not well decorated that it could be mistaken for someone else.A wide smile formed on my face as I stared in amazement.“I want us to have a private breakfast, away from everyone in there. No maids, no servant, just you and I.” He spoke and I nodded. It was quite strange but it was also a beautiful experience and I could not help but be excited.Like a gentleman, he pulled out the chair for me to sit and I did as requested before he walked over to the other side to have sit, a smile on his face as well. He served me the meal and I could not help but stare at him. He was indeed a perfect gentleman.“Arnold would have joined us this morning but he had to tend to something important that could not wait so he had to leav

    ~KeleighHe had a worrisome look etched to his face and for a couple of minutes, I had to question my sanity. I knew I had not lost my mind but I could not figure out what was going on. I was so worried and it had began to get into me.“Where….” I swallowed the lump of saliva that had formed in my throat. “Where is he? What mission is he on? He he gone so far away?” I questioned again.“I have no idea what is going through your kind right now but you just have to be relaxed and calm. Nothing is going on. Nothing has happened and nothing will happen. He will be fine.” He tried to reach out to me and I yanked off my hands off his. I had no idea what was going on through his mind but he seemed so clam and relieved.“I am just worried. I want to know where he is and….”“Did I miss something?” I suddenly heard him call out to me and I turned to look at him. I had no idea he was already close by. I had no idea when I was suddenly ran towards him and embraces him tightly.He was quite hesita

    KeleighFiguring out what should happen was something I could not get so quickly. A thousand thoughts ran through my mind.“Do you have a plan?” Ryker questioned and I shook my head. He turned to look at him and he shook his head almost immediately. I let out a sigh as I buried my head in my palms. We had to do something about it no matter how long it took or whatever it was going to take. I just could not let it go just like that.“We will figure it all out.” Ryker assured me and placed his hands on my should and I nodded. He led me in almost immediately with Arnold by his side and I could not be more grateful that I had a shoulder to lean on and I had someone to talk to. The feeling was quite surreal. It made me joyful once again.We had lunch again and I went over to my room to have a quick nap. No sooner had I gotten into the room when someone barged into the room with a frown etched to his face.“How.. What are you doing?” I questioned as I stood up immediately but he matched fo

Jake was arrested and we headed back home. Jake was beyond shocked that things would take a turn like that in such short time.A couple of minutes ago, I was doubting if I would live again and he was acting all powerful, just like the same way he did in the beginning, making everyone asides him look like a weakling only to end up as one. A few hours ago, my life was in his hands but in such a short time, his life ended up in my hands. How sweet it was for the tables to be turned!Arnold was not comfortable throughout the journey and Ryker did try to ask what was going on with him. I wished I could expose him but I wanted him to confess his own sins himself.The whole pack jubilated the moment we returned. We had left sorrowfully, not on our own accord but now, we were returning victoriously and happily.Arnold barely smiled as e

    KeleighI was not myself anymore. I wished death would embrace me with its cold arms but I also wished to see Ryker one last time. I had gone through so much in just a short time of being there.I had been ill-treated and locked away from everyone else. Alpha Jake did confess to me that the only purpose why he tried to come back for me was because he knew the type of power that was in me and had come for it. I was dazed.I guess Ryker was the only one who genuinely cared about me. I had continually wait each day for death when I suddenly got to know that the pack was being attacked. I had no idea what was going on but my heart raced so hard as I feared something could have happened to me.All the guards that watched over the prisoners had gone out as well to check what was going on and had begun to battle just like everyone else. We were however able to release ourselves.My joy knew no bounds the moment I got to know that Alpha Ryker was up and healthy once again. To my greater surpr

    ~KeleighEverything did seem off and strange. First, it was Arnold’s confession down to his actions and now, Roman's speech?I was confused and I was beginning to lose my mind. I had no idea of what was going on but I sure did know that I was not going insane.They were trying so hard to make me feel like I was losing my sanity and I knew I was not. I was heartbroken at the fact that everyone had decided to make me feel miserable.I wanted to thank Roman for advising me the first time about the brothers even though I had turned deaf ears to him but again, I remembered he had played a great role in making everything complicated.My whole world was spinning and it felt like I was not going to survive it. I was just not myself. I did not feel so good. I looked up at Roman. How could he betray me once again? I guess I had been such a fool to trust him that much. I should not have listened to him. I had no idea what the arrangement between him and Arnold was but seeing Arnold on the floor,

    ~KeleighMy whole seemed to be coming to an end the moment I got to know that he had been abducted. I had never felt so scared and worried in my entire life like I did over the few days that passed. First, it was Selene trying to hurt me and kill me.My soul had left my body the moment the knife was placed on my neck. I was even more shocked or perhaps, startled when I got to know that she was the one. She was the last person I expected to see. How had she escaped? How had she come into my room? How had she know where I was staying? How had she been able to access me?I had so many questions ringing through my head at the same time but the one that yelled at me the most was if I was going to die without seeing Ryker ever again. I would be so hurt and so shattered never to see him again.That had however given me the strength to fight her back and it had turned into a wrestle. I would rather die trying than not attempting at all. That would hurt me the most.Thankfully, Arnold and Ryke

    ~ArnoldI had not been happy with the development that was happening at the pack.“Alpha Arnold….” Roman had called out to me one night. I had begun to contemplate on what to do but nothing seemed to cross my mind. I just could not let her go so easily. I had to do something about it.“What do you want?” I questioned, turning my back to him. I expected him to leave but he was hell bent on coming to me even further.“I do not want you here. You should leave now while you have the chance. I just want you to…”“I can help you.” He suddenly spoke, causing me to arch my brows. I did not expect to hear any of what he had just said.“Help me? For what?”There was definitely no way he would have an idea of what was going on with me so what help was he talking about?“I know everything. I know you want Kaleigh to yourself. Not because you like or love her but….” He looked around suspiciously. “only because you are interested in her power.” He whispered. I feigned ignorance at first. I could no

    KeleighHis words were quite surprising but I decided not to take it to heart. I tried so hard to not think of all he had said but the words kept coming and resounding over and over and over again. He could not be kept behind bars no matter what he did?My mind drifted off to the day I asked Ryker to put him behind bars and how much he had defended him. Could it be true? I shook the thoughts out of my mind immediately. It was not possible. I could tell Ryker cared for me more than Arnold did or was it the other way round?Perhaps, because I liked Ryker even more, I believed he cared for me more? No, not at all. I shook my head. I wasn’t going to let him manipulate me. I knew he was quite manipulative but what could be his gain at that point?He claimed he was no longer interested in me. Being with Arnold would not be of any help to him neither would me being with Ryker be of any disadvantage to him. Was he really acting that way because he cared about me as a friend?Roman was quite d

  • 180 days with the Twin alphas   I MISSED HIM SO MUCH

    ~KeleighI missed him so much. I hated the fact that I could not see him when I wanted to. I had no idea why he suddenly became so busy but I was quite hurt that he was away from me. Arnold did try to make me feel better numerous times but it just could not compare.I didn’t feel the connection I felt with Ryker. The bond just wasn’t there. He did try to send me gifts to perhaps, make me feel better but it just wasn’t working. I missed Ryker so much. I would constantly stay close to the court even though the guards would sometimes try to stop me from going any closer. If they hadn’t stopped me most times, I could have gone in there to meet him most of the times. I wasn’t comfortable with his absence anymore.“Ryker is trying to get his mind off you.” Roman suddenly walked up to me one afternoon while I was all alone in the garden. I rolled my eyes, immediately disgusted by his presence. Why was it so hard for him to understand that I did not want to have anything to do with him? Why c

    ~ArnoldI had been quite busy with all that was going on in the pack yet all I was doing was in the interest of the pack. Ryker had been unresponsive like before and had left all the major tasks of the pack to me. All he did was stayed with Keleigh while leaving me with all other important things.Keleigh on the other hand was no longer interested in me. She paid even more attention to Ryker and treated me like I did not exist. I tried so hard to make her see me even more but she seemed to be very busy to not care about me, not even for once.“The necklace sure does look quite good on me, does it not?” Keleigh questioned, a smile on her face. She seemed quite excited but it did shatter my heart. With excitement, she zoomed off.I watched in silence as she walked away and Ryker did have a smile on his face as he watched her walk away.“She is very beautiful, is she not?” he questioned, probably still daydreaming. I was not in the mood for all that so I crossed my hands behind him and w

    ~RomanI was quite disappointed in the fact that things were not going my way. I could not get Keleigh out of the pack. The security had been quite tighter and I could not get close to her.Every of the maids and guards were being monitored. No one was allowed to go out of the pack neither was anyone allowed to move freely. A lot of thoughts crossed my mind all at the same time.I had to get her out no matter how hard I tried. Keleigh had tried to keep an eye on me and I could tell I was being monitored by her hence I tried everything within my power to make sure I stayed out of her reach. My appearance in public had reduced. I knew I had to do something to get out of the whole mess I had gotten into.When she was attacked and claimed I knew about the attack, I was quite surprised. Of course, I had the intentions to get her out but I had not done anything. I just wanted her to be safe as well. I had to do everything within my power to make sure I got her out.At first, I believed Jake
