Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days There's a traitor
KALILA POV A minute later, I rushed into the bedroom and approached the bathroom. It would have been a disgrace if I appeared in the hall with the same stench and dirt that clung to me from the dungeon. I took a quick shower and emerged two minutes later to another thunderous ovation. I hastened my pace, eager to join the festivities. Since the day I had gone shopping, I hadn't seen the clothes I bought, and I had no idea where Ares had kept them. I wouldn't have been surprised if he had thrown or burnt them away. I swung open the wardrobe and found the gowns I had purchased. Without marvelling at Ares's thoughtfulness or the beauty of the dresses, I grabbed a black one and slipped it on. I quickly located my white heels and shoved my feet into them. As I rushed out of the bedroom, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror.Shit! I looked terrible. My hair was a mess, and I had no makeup on. I remembered Ares's words about not just being a Luna but also looking like one. Damn him. H
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days Jealous
ARES POVShe had saved me! Dahlia had really saved me!At first, I was in shock, but I had to act quickly. I didn't know if I had been quick enough to instruct the guards to seal the exits. The culprit or culprits had probably gotten away while the Omega was tasting the wine. Oh, shit! I had messed up this time. My shock shifted into anger, and I saw the look on Uncle Lawrence's face. His face was completely ashen. It was apparent he had been shaken by the incident."Fucking piece of shit!" I cursed under my breath. "Everything is ruined. Let me get my hands on those bastards, and I'll wring their necks with my bare hands.""Guess who came to rescue?" Leo asked mockingly. But I couldn't silence him this time. He had every right to ridicule me.I looked at the Omega, and her face turned pale blue. That would have been me, lying dead, with a blue face. It would have also been Dahlia if I hadn't stopped her from drinking the wine. But was she actually going to drink it? It was very likel
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days Uncomfortable with you
ARES POV"It's fine. The spy or whoever did this will be caught," I said, sounding more confident than I felt. There was a bigger chance that the search being conducted was all in vain. If someone was smart enough to have poisoned my drink, they must have been smart enough to get out at the slightest sign of danger - which was Dahlia's first shout the moment she entered the hall. However, I still couldn't tell how she knew about the poisoned wine. She had been in the dungeon; it wasn't adding up.Frowning, I turned to Dahlia, her face still contorted with anger, and I doubted that I could get anything out of her in that mood, but I tried anyway.Leaving Wendy, I went over to her and circled her wrist tightly, leading her to a small room that served as an emergency meeting room for me, Jeremy, and James sometimes. She resisted, so I had to drag her almost half the way and tried to be gentle to avoid anyone noticing."Where are you taking me?" she asked, trying to break my grip in a fr
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days Lust
ARES’S POVSlowly, the event started to break up, and guests began to exit the hall, some in pairs and others alone. I scanned the crowd, searching for Jeremy and Uncle Lawrence, but only James caught my eye, and I recalled Uncle Lawrence telling me he had an emergency to attend to, so he had left even before I was about to get poisoned. I motioned for James to come closer."Where's Jeremy?" I asked, my voice tense."He's somewhere outside. It's hard to gauge the guests' mood right now. They seem shocked, perhaps even angry," James replied, his voice filled with uncertainty.I know exactly what mood I was in, I thought to myself, dismissing James. I stood in silence, observing the remaining guests as they departed. Anger coursed through my veins for two distinct reasons. First, the obvious one: an anonymous individual or group had attempted to kill me and, in the process, sabotaged my coronation. Another part of me simmered with frustration over the brief confrontation between Dahlia
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days little clue
ARES POVThe following day, I sat in my study, engrossed in a pile of papers Jeremy had sent me. I had no desire to go to the office or engage with outsiders. Just as I lit my third cigarette, a gentle knock resonated on the wooden door, followed by the entry of a maid."Good morning, Alpha Ares. Mr Lawrence has just arrived. Shall I bring him in now?" she asked."Of course," I replied.She hurriedly exited, leaving the door slightly ajar, and Uncle Lawrence stepped into the room. He appeared as lively as ever, donning a dashing blue suit."Uncle," I said, rising to shake his hand."Ares, my boy," he smiled as he shook my hand, then grimaced after he had sat down. "I heard everything that happened at the coronation. Goodness me! I apologise I couldn't stay long. Something came up, and I had to attend to it urgently.""Oh, stop it, uncle," I dismissed his apology with a wave of my hand. "Why are you apologising? It was a disaster, after all."I rang the bell on my desk, and an instant
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days Let's take a walk
KALILA POVFirst and foremost, I was relieved to be back in the comfort of my bedroom. After my altercation with Ares, I didn't want to risk upsetting him again. Nova was right—I was at his mercy, and there was little I could do about it. My back still ached from sleeping on the cold concrete floor, but strangely, I hadn't felt the pain when I rushed to save Ares. I had been proven right, and the evidence was there for everyone, including Ares, to see.Yet, a restlessness gnawed at me. The looming threats that had been at the back of my mind for weeks had materialised into a concrete plan. Someone out there wanted to harm Ares, but why? I didn't know, and what troubled me,, even more, was my inability to pinpoint the culprit.If only I had noticed the key earlier, I could have discreetly sneaked out and caught a glimpse of the perpetrator. I stood in the middle of the room, racking my brain, hoping to connect the unfamiliar voices I had heard to someone I knew. However, my efforts wer
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days Wendy's interruption
"Fine," he agreed. "Be ready in an hour."He left the room, and as he did, I noticed something intriguing. Did he smile? Oh, my word! Excitement bubbled within me, and I rushed to the wardrobe. I flung it open and sifted through my clothes.What should I wear? Panic mingled with excitement as I struggled to decide. After about ten minutes of indecision, a gentle knock sounded on my door, and Angela stepped in.Boy, was I happy to see her!"Angela, come here quickly," I called to her."There's a smile on ma'am's face," she remarked."Quick, I need your help. I don't know what to wear.""Actually, that's the reason Alpha Ares sent me here: to help you get dressed," Angela said."Really?" I was surprised."Now, if you just settle down on the bed, ma'am, I'll handle the rest, including your makeup."About forty minutes later, I walked down the stairs in a peach-coloured evening gown that fell just below my knees. I met Ares at the foot of the stairs."You don't look so bad," he remarked a
Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days a friend
KALILA POVThe next day was dreadful, I thought all that had to do with Wendy’s sudden appearance during our walk the previous evening was done and over with, but she showed up again at the mansion, much to my annoyance. I was in the bedroom, sitting quietly on the bed and letting the rays of the sun that penetrated through the window dance on my face, while Ares was at his desk, blowing into a smoke pipe while he read some documents. His pinewood scent and that of the tobacco broiled sweetly and created a wonderful atmosphere around me, I was just content lying there. I wondered when Ares and I would get back to work, it had been three days now and everything was under Jeremy’s control, I knew the weight of the work at the office and I was beginning to get worried that our time off will wear on Jeremy. From the documents that were sent in every morning for Ares to go through, I came to the conclusion that he was working from home for the mean time while I had nothing to do. A
