CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

RYAN’S POV

I sat by my pool thinking of what Simeon said, how can I be in love with Aria?

I don't care about the fact she is being called a whore, I am just surprised that I am losing my shit because of her.

“Fuck,” I cursed under my breath as I racked my hands through my hair.

Remembering how tears clouded her blue eyes made me want to hit myself in the balls.

“What the fuck are you thinking about brother, I have been here but you didn't notice my presence,” Trina, my step-sister, yelled, splashing water on me.

Trina is the last child of my father, and she is sixteen at the moment, almost ready for marriage.

I don't like my stepmom, she was my mother's best friend and when my mother ran away she took over her position.

I would not be so angry, but my stepmother was the cause of my mother's disappearance.

Growing up, my mum was a submissive wife, I’d say she was too submissive to my dad and allowed him to walk all over her.

But when she fou

    CHAPTER EIGHTEEN ARIA’S POV I stared at Olivia in anger, with disgust written all over my face. The audacity she had to enter my room and tell me Ryan wasn’t wrong for calling me a whore. “You need to calm down,” She continued saying, trying to gaslight me when she knew how wrong she was. “Take your stuff and leave this place now,” I heard Ryan's voice as he pushed out the bedroom door. The shock in my eyes was evident, what did he mean by that?“I…I… I don’t understand,” I stuttered.“I am taking you back to Klaus,” Ryan wasn’t threatening me, he was damn serious. This got me confused; what did I ever do to him that warranted this maltreatment? He called me all sorts of names at the dining hall, and I didn’t react, and now he is fucking throwing me out.“What the fuck did I do? You humiliated me in the dining hall, and you also sent Olivia to humiliate me, and now you are sending me packing. Do you worst, I am a helpless omega who isn’t afraid of death,” I yelled,

    CHAPTER NINETEENARIA’ S POV I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling, still remembering the kiss Ryan and I shared. Everything had been awkward since then and I could bet Ryan has been trying to avoid me or he is successfully avoiding me. Before I woke up every morning, He had gone for a jog, and when I went and got breakfast, he had showered and gone for some board meetings. So Ryan and I had not met eye to eye for four days and that's because I freaked out when we were kissing and ran off.“You ran off?” Trina yelled, spilling water on me. I shrugged my shoulders, unable to give her a reply because I ran off.“I don't know if telling you this was a good idea, I think I'd just head out,” I said feeling stupid for pouring out my heart to Ryan’s half-sister, a seventeen-year-old girl. She is practically still a child. I grabbed my jacket and pulled my legs out of the pull.“Where the fuck do you think you are going?” she asked, making me gasp. I don't know if she was

    CHAPTER TWENTYARIA’S POV “Aria wait, where the hell are you going to,” Ryan yelled as he tried to catch up with me but I increased my pace at every second. I knew he would catch up with me eventually, but I wasn't ready to wait. I can't believe that I was cheated on again in my second marriage, the last marriage was terrifying because my husband cheated on my step-sister and they also tried to kill me. But this was heartbreaking, Ryan recently kissed me and boomed he changed his character again. I don't even know what to think, one second Ryan is okay and the next he is an asshold.“I said wait,” He yelled while panting but I kept running.“Now,” He yelled again, and this time, his voice was filled with authority, and that made me stop at a spot. I didn't know why I waited but I did. “Why did you come to the garden, even when you saw there was no guard, something bad would have happened to you,” He questioned and I scoffed at his ridiculous gaslight. How dare he try t

    CHAPTER TWENTY-ONERYAN’S POV I ran to Simeon's house because that was the only place I could go to chill out. I just pushed Aria again, because I was too scared of telling her about my feelings after she ran off and I became like my father.“Hey man, I think I could get used to seeing you frequently,” Simeon mocked. I rarely pay Simeon a visit because the packs need more from their Lycan king and when I am in some deep shit or the packs are in some deep shit I run to him for some advice and he always gives the right one. I tried making an attempt to pit Simeon as my right-hand man but I couldn't, he is not a werewolf, and the sorceress would know that and would appoint him, his foster parent didn't even have a family lineage. “I am losing my shit, Simeon,” I yelled, grabbing a chair at the corner of his house and sitting on it.“First you have to calm down, you can't make the right choices if you are this agitated,” He said, and he didn't hand me a beer, I knew this wasn't t

    CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE ARIA’S POV I angrily walked towards Ryan and pushed me to the wall. “Why would you send me to the people that want to murder you? Is that how much you hate me?” I asked, hitting his chest multiple times but he held my hands swiftly. “I will make sure you don’t get killed, it’s a promise,” He said, trying to be nice. Why the hell was he trying to be nice about sending me back to Klaus? “You think he gives two shits about that, Klaus and Tasha would kill me” I yelled, But he didn’t even care about whatever I was saying. “You need to leave Aria,” Was the only word he said, very coldly. I don’t know what I did to deserve this, but my life has always been a mess since my parents died and this was the height. “Why the fuck do you hate me so much,” I asked, allowing the tears to flow down my cheeks. “I wish I actually hated you but I fucking don’t, Aria I don’t hate you,” He yelled, drawing me closer, and before I could speak, he covered my mouth in hi

    CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR ARIA’S POV I stared at the ceiling with a smile on my face, for the past five days I have been living with Ryan, it has been awesome. I never had any idea that I would be loved this much. When Ryan confessed his love to me, I pleaded with him to let me stay and let see his mixing business and pleasure together would wake up. To be honest it has been working out fine. After a stressful day of searching for his father’s killer, I’d come back to being his painkiller. It was an easy job for me and something I enjoyed doing. I woke up early today, so I'd catch up with Trina. I wanted to apologize to her about my behavior at the pool. The other day, I was just being an asshole. I have been going to the pool since that day to formally apologize to her but she wasn't visiting the pool again and that made me feel like shit. I got off the bed, only to see a butt-naked Ryan, searching for what to wear in the wardrobe. “Good morning,” I yawned, admiring hi

The maids also said he wanted to kill me too, making me wonder if it was true. The last four days of my life had been the best for me but I don't know if this was the way Ryan was trying to tell me he owned me, because what the fuck? I entered my room and saw Olivia folding my clothes. “Who the fuck let you in?” I yelled, and she shrugged her shoulders. “I ain't the one making you that mad, you need to chill out and learn your fucking place whore?” Olivia fired back at me, giving me a disgusted look. I don't even know why Ryan thinks she is a saint, this wolf doesn't give two shits about him. “Call me a whore one more time and…” “And what? Whore you've got nothing on me,” She scoffed, throwing my clothes to the ground, and asking weirdly at me. I felt like dragging her hair off her head, but I couldn't and besides, She is

We were all going for an occasion because my father was among the most respected noblemen, even if he wasn't a board member. He was invited to dine with the late Lycan king and that was the first time my sister and I were living in our mansion.“Daddy is beautiful,” I recalled my sister's voice, beaming at my father, who was beaming as well, unsure of what would happen next. My sister was already betrothed to the Lycan king’s nephew and we had always dreamt of how he would look, it painted me like she never got to see his face.“Mummy it's awesome, daddy would have loved to be here,” Trina yelled excitedly, using her eyes to explore every tree we passed.“Daddy went to the afterlife baby, he is seeing us right now,” I said, holding

The respect I have for Natalie has begun to deteriorate, as I began to find horrible traits about her.“Are you sure Natalie ordered some men to attack Trinity pack in my name?”I asked, even if I was as confused as her. Natalie is capable of a lot of shit, I almost had her thrown into the dungeon when she tried to kill Trina for being gay, but we share the same immunity, because she is my wife-to-be. I have also tried to call off our engagement, but still, that is impossible. Engagement is a big deal in my world and can't be revoked till after marriage, and the marriage ought to last a year, before divorce. “Yes, she killed all the men that went with her, She killed my brother,” One of the guards said, with tears in his eyes. I threw a fist at the wall angrily, why the fuck didn't I see this trait in her, I didn't only make her Alpha, I also engaged her.

    CHAPTER FIFTY-FOURAREOLA’S POV I spent the last two days packing my things, I'm leaving Trinity packed. “This is a stupid idea, you can win revenge on a Lycan king, who you still love,” Moxilla argued, as I packed my remaining clothes and got ready for my journey, she had been trying to stop me, to a dead end.“He can't go away with hurting people I love, Moxilla, you might have done that to Aria but he won't do that to Areola,” I snapped at her, setting my bows and arrows. Revenge has been running in my blood since Leo died and I had to go with my instinct even if Moxilla is right sometimes. “Mummy, where is Daddy,” Tasha called, I turned to look at her and all I could see was Ryan. I have no idea why she looked so much like him but it got me angry, I even had to dye her hair blonde like her sister but she still looked like Ryan.“You are the cause of him being missing,” I snapped at her, pouring my anger on her for no reason. “Areola, don't frighten the child,” Moxilla g

I waited for Donna to rain abuse on me but rather she hugged me tightly.“I didn’t kill him,” I whispered to her ears, trying to hold my tears back, my crew had never seen me cry, and I wasn’t planning to cry now.“I know, we saw Alpha Natalie and how Leo died, I’m sorry,” Nicole consoled me, patting my back. That was it, the tears fell from my eyes without control, and I wept on Donna’s shoulder.“It is okay to cry, just so you know,” She whispered to my hair, as I soaked her shoulders with tears. “He wasn't happy with me before he died, I know I'm the cause of his death,” I sobbed, feeling a different weight of guilt on my shoulders. It made me remember the

I don’t know if I should be angry at them for thinking he was an animal for them laughing about it.“You killed him,” I growled, getting angry. I was already losing to my wolf, when one came closer to me, and whispered to my ear.“If you say another word, we would make you our whore,” He said, licking my ear. They all laughed at his stupid comment and if it was Aria she would have broken down in tears but luckily, this was Areola Ross.“Don’t get me angry,” I warned, forming a fist in my hand, if the last thing I did was make meat out of these wolves, I would be glad. “She has some nerves doesn’t she,” He scoffed, flipping my hair to the other side. I dropped Leo’s body carefully to the ground and stood on my feet, with my eyes burning red.I counted the men, there were eight of them, and lucki

    CHAPTER FIFTY-ONEAREOLA’S POV It had been two days since I told Leo that I didn't love him and he hadn't been to the house since. I regret my actions, but I don't blame myself for being sincere to him, it is better he knew the truth of my feelings. “What are you going to do, Areola?” Nicole asked, sitting at the edge of the bed. I didn't have a choice but to call Nicole and Donna. I told them everything about the marriage and they didn't seem pleased with what I did.“I don't know, he isn't…”“Of course you won't, Areola, all these past years to have spent you, you thought about yourself alone but Leo never left your side, and now you throw him out there to dry,” Donna said rudely, glaring at me She isn't telling the truth, I have always put the pack’s needs before mine as long as I can remember.“If you did, you would have left Nicole and Leo's love to blossom but no, you kept him to yourself and just threw him under the bus,” Donna snapped at me.

The sex with Leo was awesome although it wasn't better than Ryan’s or Elisha, it was something I looked forward to. With a deep breath, I sat on my bed, deep in thought.“I tried to stop you, but when your damn mind is made up you don't look back,” She scoffed, not feeling a bit of pressure. “This affects you and me Moxilla, if I marry him, we will be tied down to a man again,” I panicked, throwing my head back. I don't want to live a life in the shadows of a man again, and even though Leo seemed different he is still a man. “The four years spent with Leo had been the best Areola, he didn't behave as if he owns you and even if I was against you getting married to him forever, I don't think its a bad idea,” Sh

Knowing more about Aria would make me drawn to my past, although I reasoned what she said. What if Aria was pregnant with my child? I remember talking about pregnancy with her and she jerked, was Everess right? Was Aria alive? “Ryan,” I heard Natalie’s voice, I turned immediately to see her sitting in the corner. “Nat?” I called, walking towards her. It was obvious that Natalie had been crying, her makeup had washed away, giving her a dark spot, underneath her eyes.“What the hell happened?” I asked, sitting close to her, I felt her pain, and anyone who made her cry, I was more than ready to rip his throat off and I meant it.“I am sorry for making you look stupid,” She apologized, holding my hand.
