Alpha Clinton Chapter 20
KAEL.Her words sparked my anger. Did she really request that I go search for Ruby? A mate that killed my father and broke his trust? A mate I had shown mercy to and had banished rather than ordered to be executed? A mate I had already rejected?Which one of them?My head tilted to the right, my mouth popping open, but no words came out. She tapped a finger on my hand, but I immediately retracted it.“Did you really ask this of me?” I said in disbelief, after finally finding my voice.Caroline sighed. “You and I know that you didn't let her defend herself. You were just told she killed your late father and you concluded with investigating the matter.”I felt my anger rising, but I reined it in. She wasn't trying to provoke me—I reminded myself like a mantra—she was just trying to sow peace wherever she went. But I didn't want her peace when it concerned Ruby. She killed my father, the previous alpha of this pack, and there was no need to dig up what was already buried in crystal-clear

RUBY.My eyes widened in shock as I stared at him, my mouth open. Did he really say what I thought I heard?I parted my lips and shook my head, but no words came out.He reached out and took my right hand, smiling at me. “Yes, I don’t mind sharing. And I’m sure my wolf would be more than pleased to be yours too, Ruby.”I felt my heart glow with warmth at his words. He wanted to share his wolf with me? I knew it wasn’t possible, but the thought alone was enough to fill me with joy.A low growl reverberated from his chest, and I saw his eyes change to a molten black. His wolf was agreeing to what Clinton said? Tears pooled in my eyes as I stared directly at his wolf.“Hi, my name is—”I began, but he stopped me with another growl. Wait a minute, did I mistake his dislike as agreement? I started to move away from him, retracting my hand from Clinton—or rather, his wolf—but he grabbed my hand again and stopped me from moving.“Ruby. Your name is Ruby. I am Kai. Please don’t run away from

RUBY.After I heard the sound of his car moving out of the compound, I sprang up on the bed, my hands propped on my waist.I needed to leave now that I had the chance. With both the Alpha King and Kiara out, this was the perfect time to go.But I didn’t know where to go. I hadn’t come up with a plan yet. Yet, somehow, I thought it was time I took action because I might not have time to escape like I did now. Who knew what would happen if I decided to wait until I had a plan?Even though Clinton had kissed me twice, it didn’t mean he liked me. He might just be using me for all I knew, and it wasn’t as though I wanted him for keeps. Those urges to kiss him were just because I was vulnerable. That’s all.So I walked up to my closet and, luckily, found a small bag that I could use to take some things along with me. I looked for comfortable clothes and immediately changed from the long trousers I was wearing to a black knicker and a yellow top with a picture of a cute kitten on it.Then I

RUBY. But I doubted it was the case, as one of them gave me a lustful look.“Who are you?” the one with a grim expression asked as he sized me up.“Someone you obviously don't know,” I answered, looking from one to another.“Do I look like I'm joking with you, young lady?” He let out a growl. “What brings you to our pack?”Oh. They must be thinking I'm a human!So I relaxed, giving him a shrug as I clasped my hands together. “I was going to visit a friend in another pack, but it's late, so I decided to eat and spend the night in a hotel. Come morning, I'll be on my way.”“Do we look like fools to you?” the other guy sneered, squaring his shoulders as though ready for a fight.I was too tired to give back a retort, but I let my answer show on my face. Could they just leave already and let me be? I needed to find somewhere to stay for the night and rest my back. With them blocking my way and wasting my time, night was slowly caving in.“I can tell you are a werewolf, but I can't smell

RUBY.I woke up to a soft touch on my shoulder, my heart racing as I opened my eyes.I stilled and pretended to be asleep as the hand lifted my top, trying to raise it. I grabbed him.Sitting up, my eyes narrowed into slits at Mr. Creepy, anger coursing through me like molten lava. “What the hell do you think you're doing?” I demanded, my voice low and dangerous. My grip tightened, and I could see the fear flicker in his eyes.I pushed him off with all the strength I had left in me, standing on my feet as I continued to glare at him.Pervert!I couldn't believe men like him still existed. Trying to take advantage of me just because I was in his pack. Men like him ought to be castrated or burned alive because they didn't deserve to live.“Why did you try to ra… do it?” I demanded angrily, walking toward him and sending a kick to his groin.“Ouch… Can you stop? I was trying to help. I thought you’d feel better if I touched you.” He cried out in pain, rubbing his groin in an attempt to e

CLINTON.Twenty-one fucking years old. I was glad when she told me her age because I had thought she would not want to give it. And I was more than glad to know she wasn't seventeen since I thought that might be her age considering the fact that she was without a wolf.When she told me about not having a wolf, I saw pure sadness wash over her and then I offered to share Kai with her.I meant every word.But I guess she might not know it.When Kai spoke to her, I wasn't surprised. Wolves don't normally speak to others other than letting out a growl, except if the person was their mate. But she didn't know that.I refused to tell her, even though Kai was pressuring me to tell her the truth. But when I didn't, he introduced himself to her and I watched as tears spilled from her eyes. Then Kai did what I didn't expect him to do. He lapped at her eyes, all the while asking me to tell her that she's our mate.But I didn't. And that infuriated him, and he began to thrash around in my head. W

CLINTON. I didn't know how long I had run through the woods with my wolf sniffing the earth for her scent. It was faint, which meant she had left hours ago. From time to time, I let out a howl at the sky, wondering why the moon goddess was doing this to me, to us. She didn’t bring my mate when I first shifted, and now she brought her to me when I couldn't claim her. To top it all off, she allowed her to leave me. “Focus right now. This wouldn't have happened if you had told her that she was made for us and we for her,” Kai, as always, placed the blame on me. I sighed. “This isn't my fault.” “As hell it isn’t,” he snorted. We continued running, following her faint scent. With each step, it grew fainter. I was starting to lose my composure, and I didn't know what I'd do if we didn't find her. Was I not supposed to be glad that she left? She was doing both of us a favor by leaving, but she didn't know it. Should I stop searching for her and head back to the pack house to mourn my p
Alpha Clinton Chapter 27
RUBY.I didn't know whether to feel happy or annoyed that he came looking for me. And the jealousy brewing in those ocean-blue eyes—what was it for? For a moment, I was stunned, watching him fight his wolf off as though he wanted nothing more than to transform and beat the hell out of the Alpha of the Meadowdale pack—who I had come to know as Liam, Alpha Liam.Then he claimed me as his, and after a little exchange between him and Alpha Liam, he announced that I was his girlfriend. Was I surprised? No. Shocked? Yes!Even though I had somehow come to the conclusion that he was sort of interested in me—sort of like I said, maybe it was only for a fleeting moment—I didn’t think he could lie about us in public like that. In fact, there was no us. There was just him and me, two different individuals who were talking to each other because I found myself in his pack, which, up to this moment, I didn’t know how possible it was. Fine, I had run out of the Oakwood pack that night and ended up in

Ruby's P.O.VFLASHBACK CONTINUED. “What are you going to do with her?” someone asked, though I couldn’t place the voice. I wanted to open my eyes so badly, but I wasn’t sure if it was the right move. Maybe pretending to stay unconscious would buy me time to come up with a plan to escape.“I don’t know. I could have her killed for everything she did to me, but I won’t,” Seraphina’s unmistakable voice rang out, and I barely held back a snort. Everything I did to her? Ridiculous. “You mean you're just going to let her go? Just like that?” The first voice, filled with surprise, questioned.I was just as curious. After all her threats, why was she planning to let me go? Maybe she feared what Clinton would do to her if she killed me.“Yes, I won’t kill her.”“What if she tells the King what you did to her? Do you really think he’ll spare you?”“You’re too scared, Mom. Relax,” Seraphina laughed. “I have a plan. Don’t worry, it’ll work out perfectly.”My stomach knotted at her words. What

Ruby's P.O.VTRIGGER WARNING: Some scenes are abusive, but there's no rage. If you don't like physical torture, please skip this chapter._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _FLASHBACK TO TWO DAYS AGO.I regained consciousness to someone pouring cold water on me. I gasped and shivered, cowering away as though that would make whoever it was pouring the water stop.And I was wrong.A half-naked man emptied another bucket of water on me before dropping it to the ground like he did with the last one.Seeing as I was now awake, he approached me and sent a kick to my stomach, making me yelp in pain.Raising my arm, I rubbed my face on it, wanting to clear the water out of my eyes because it was starting to make them tear up. It was the only way I could wipe my face because my hands were tied.“I thought you weren't going to wake up,” a familiar voice taunted, making me wince.It sounded like Seraphina, and I started to panic because I knew I wasn't going to leave here unscathed. And maybe... she wouldn'
Alpha Clinton Chapter 100
Later that day, the doctor announced that I was free to go home and I followed my Dad and Pearl back to our palace. Not many things had changed. My room was still like I left it except that it was neat. When I mentioned this to Pearl, she told me that she always asked the maids to clean it up, with the hope that I would return soon. She said that she didn't want me to return and find my room in despair. I was touched. Who wouldn't? Pearl forced me to eat even though I didn't have an appetite to. I couldn't believe that everything I had known had been a lie. Learning that I'm special and what I could do, and that my mom was something else entirely, it was too much. And the most painful part of the information I learnt was the one that Alpha Rhys wasn't my mate. I rejected my pack and left my family for a man who wasn't even mine and wanted me killed. All I wanted to do since I returned from the hospital was stay cooped in my room, with bottles of beer lined in front of me. But Dad a
Alpha Clinton Chapter 99
Flashes of memories flooded my mind, each so vivid they played on an endless loop, over and over again.Dad gave Alpha Rhys—my mate—two choices: reject me or choose me. He rejected me without hesitation.Yet, Dad killed him.He cut off his head.No!!I shook my head, desperate to erase the memory. Sobs wracked my body, trembling violently as the images refused to fade.Pearl embraced me, and I let her. I cried into her chest, and when the sobs finally subsided, I looked up to see Dad standing before me. Tears shimmered in his eyes, and it only fueled my anger. Moving out of Pearl's arms, I lunged. “You killed him! Stop playing like the victim here because you are not!” I panted in between kicking him and raining blows on his chest. “Don't you dare cry as if you regret what you did!” I sent another kick to his knee, propelling myself to stop before I went animalistic. “I hate you!” I held his gaze for a while, letting him see the hate in my eyes before I eventually looked away and

Ruby's p. o. vI woke up with a start.The incessant beeping of a machine and the constant drumming nearby made my head spin. I wish they could move it away. I wish they could—Oh, shit.Where was I? I gazed around the unfamiliar room. I wasn't home. This wasn’t mine and Clinton's room. This was somewhere else. Did we sleep somewhere else…?Something clicked—a memory, sharp and raw. The library. I was abducted and warned never to return to my mate, or I'd be killed.I tried sitting up, but pain lanced through my body, pulling a cry from my throat as I collapsed back down. My mind raced as I took in my surroundings, trying to piece together how I got here. The last thing I remembered was running like my life depended on it—because it did.A drip hung on the wall, and panic surged through me as I noticed it was attached to my left hand, the IV's beeping in sync with my racing heart.Thud. Thud. Thud. My heart pounded faster. I needed to leave before someone came in and started hurting m

Clinton's p.o.vIt has been a few hours since we started searching for her. Our search came up empty. She was nowhere to be found. I was getting tired but I knew I could not go in without her. I needed to see her before I went crazy. Kai had been going berserk in my head, he needed to see his mate before he could calm down but there was nothing I could do. I was yet to hear from the warriors if they had seen her and I knew because of my threat, none of them would dare return without her. In as much as I wanted to beat my Gamma up for his foolishness, I knew it wouldn't bring her back. There was something strange going on. When I went back to her work place to look for her, she wasn't there and Kai and I couldn't sniff her. It was as if her scent had been wiped off completely, and it was making me more worried. I was pacing around when I heard footsteps behind me. I didn't turn around before I knew who it was. I could recognize my Beta's scent anywhere. Musk and coffee. “Any news
Alpha Clinton Chapter 96
Clinton's p.o.v I had a really hectic day. I noticed something wrong with my company report, so I spent the day at the office, searching for the problem. Eventually, I found it—a mistake with one of our products had caused a huge shortage. We lost a lot of money, but I didn’t fire the man responsible, even though that would have been the easy, fair choice. After interrogating him thoroughly, I knew it was an honest mistake. And mistakes are meant to be forgiven. Afterwards, I got in my car and drove to a flower shop and bought a bouquet for Ruby. A lot had happened between us, and I wanted to make sure she was happy. I already fucked up twice, and this was time for me to make things right. Seraphina nearly tore us apart, and I was thankful we managed to deal with her before more damage could be done. The Elders had been surprisingly understanding, accepting my mate without hesitation. It didn’t matter if Ruby held the Queen title or not—she was known and treated as my mate. An
Alpha Clinton Chapter 95
ONE MONTH LATER. Everything had been going well between my mate and me. He had taken me on several dates, where we had a lot of fun because we were in our pack, and I was with him as my mate. We hadn't heard from Seraphina since, and I was grateful for that.The Queen hasn’t paid much attention to us either, though in my encounters with her, she would mostly glare at me, making sure I knew she didn’t like me. Even though I had proven that I wasn’t the prim and proper type of Luna—by taking care of the sick and helping with the house chores—she still doesn’t like me. And right now? I’ve given up. I’m lucky to have Clinton; he’s been a very good mate. I’ve also gotten along with both the Beta and the Gamma.Although I hadn’t had a Luna ceremony yet, the pack treated me as one. I held meetings with the women, and most came to me for counseling. I never knew I could give them the advice they sought, but after seeing the smiles on their faces, I knew I had helped in the small ways I could
Alpha Clinton Chapter 94
The ride to the meeting hall was silent. Clinton had told me about meeting with the Elders because he thought it was finally time. He also wanted to plead our case and discuss what Seraphina had been up to. We kept what she could do to us a secret, except from the Beta and Gamma.Not only that, he also shared his fears about losing his position as King, since it wasn't his birthright. Any misstep from him could cost him the throne.Even the man I encountered yesterday, Carlos was it? Clinton told me everything I needed to know about him. He was his greatest rival and he wouldn't hesitate taking him down from the throne if the opportunity arose. That wasn't all. I learnt that he couldn't just kill the man if he wanted to, even though Carlos was nothing but a thorn in his flesh. He was only tolerating him because it was against the wolf law in killing an Alpha. It came as a shock to me because back in the Lycan Kingdom, Alpha could do as they liked. Because that was because my father—A
