Ruby’s POV“She is waking up.” Rowan's dejected voice says, I open my eyes slowly, I am surprised I am in another environment. How I got here I don’t know. My body seems so heavy, but I don't feel any pain. I remember getting stabbed, and losing my consciousness. Three pairs of eyes are looking at me, the shock and pain is evident in them. Rowan kneels beside me and takes my hand carefully. “I don't know what I could have done if anything bad had happened to you, Ruby.” He speaks his eyes on my hand, I can feel how hard he is holding his tears. “Don't you dare touch her again, blood sucker.” Owen interjects, yanking Rowan off me. This is what made me get hurt, these fights, how am I going to make peace reign between the four of us? “You lost that right when you hurt her.” He adds, blocking the path to both Damien and Rowan with his huge arms. “Stop it please.” I beg. I feel so defeated. “You have to ask them to leave Ruby, you are mine.” “She is mine too.” Damien and Rowan say i
Ruby’s POV“Ruby.” He looks at me with his ruby eyes, there is something behind them, something I have never seen before. He looks vulnerable, he looks broken, and it's like he has given up. It's so unlike him. “Owen, please don't.” I know he knows what is running in my mind.“But you have already made a choice, beautiful. I have resigned my fate, baby.” He tilts his head sideways and shrugs. “What do you mean?” I ask, wrapping my hands around his neck. “Don't do that baby, you know it really hurt me when you chose Rowan over me, I thought you wanted me more.” He says, I feel how sad he is. “I thought you were going to choose me, you were all that I wanted, you are the person who can save me Ruby, I might sound selfish, but I don't want to be reduced to nothing.” He smiles feebly.“What do you mean by save, Owen.” I ask. “It doesn't matter, seeing you earlier on the verge of death, made me realize that you are the most important person in my life and that your safety and happiness
Ruby’s POV “Wooow, what's this place?” I ask when I find myself standing in front of an expansive compound and in front of me there is the hugest house I have ever seen. It looks like some kind of Palace. “Come.” He says taking my hand, he leads me towards the palace, there is a fountain right outside it and two wooden carvings of dolphins at the either side of the wide door. There is an actual cemented floor on the compound the paths leading to the palace. Besides the paths, there are beautiful flowers planted. It's breathtaking. Wow, the door automatically opens when we get near it automatically shuts the moment we are inside. My jaw almost drops once we are inside. The entire first floor is furnished, it's so wide that I can't see the end. What surprises me is that I haven't seen a single soul since we stepped in here. A house this huge, how can no one be around? “Are you alright Ruby?” Rowan asks turning around to look at me. I just nod, I am a little scared, I came to an unkn
Ruby’s POVWhat's wrong with me, the more I kiss him, the more I want him. But something seems a miss, it's like he isn't enough, it's like he can't satiate me. My mind keeps on wandering to Damien and Owen. I find myself wishing that they were here with us. I feel incomplete without them.I slowly pull myself away from Rowan. “I am starving.” I smile. “I know, I can hear the rumbling already.” He kisses my cheek and puts me down. “Why don't you make yourself comfortable, and I will be with you in a short while, alright.” He says, smiling. I really thought that he was grumpy and all, but he looks so different, homely I can say. I just lie on the couch and wait.The next thing I know, I am being woken up by a kiss on the forehead. I open my eyes slowly, Rowan's smiley face greets me, he is kneeling beside me. All I can see in his eyes is his love for me. “Hey, love, the food is ready.” He says. “Sorry, I took too long.” “It's fine.” I get off the seat, my body feels so heavy. I fee
Ruby’s POV“Owen, you are here." I feel so happy seeing him in front of me. I move to where he is and embrace him from behind. Earlier, I felt like I was missing something, but now that he is here, I am glad my night will end well. “Yes I am Ruby, right here with you.” He answers, turning to face me. “Aren't you angry with me?” I ask. I got the vibe that he might be when I noticed him in my room. And he definitely listened to my thoughts about Rowan. “No I am not, how am I even going to bring myself to be angry at your baby.” He asks, cupping my face in his huge palm. "And that Rowan guy, can't surpass me in anything, I have so much faith in myself Ruby." He adds with so much confidence, this is what attracts me about his personality. “Thank goodness, I was so afraid that I would never see you again Owen.”“Well to be honest, I was really mad when you chose Rowan first. But then I saw how broken he looked after hurting you. The whole time you were unconscious, he was miserable, I
RubyToday is a new day. I wake up jovial and content, hop into the shower, I take almost thirty minutes just getting in there. I then doll myself up as I always do, well, let's say before all these chaos of three mates.I put on my off - shoulder black body con dress, black chunky heels and my favorite black Gucci handbag, I do full makeup, and then I wear my hair into a perfect ponytail, I finish my look with my loop earrings. In my purse I make sure to carry a small mirror, powder, brush, and my favorite pink lipstick. There is always a price to pay when wearing makeup. I make sure I look ravishing before stepping out of my room. I always hate having to rely on people to give me compliments, that's why I make sure I am happy with my look first before stepping out. I head downstairs slowly and carefully I can't risk tripping, I don't want to have to start dolling myself up all over again. “Darling you look gorgeous.” My mum says to me from the bottom of the stairs. I hadn't not
Ruby's POV “Are we early? OMG Zama there is no one here.” I say when I realize that the hall has no one in it. All this dress up for nothing? But this was supposed to be the venue. “I can see that, bestie, but there must be an explanation to this.” She says, looking around. “Hey maid, come here.” She shouts when one of the Alphas maids walks by.“Zama, did you have to call her like that?”“She is a maid, isn’t she?” I rest my case, sometimes I wonder how we became friends, and she is always so insensitive with others. How did we become friends again? I don't remember. “How may I help you miss?” she asks, bowing a little. “Where is the party.” Zama asks.“It’s in the woods, at the lake house.” She says, I didn’t know there was a lake near the Alphas’ house. “Okay, swoosh.” Zama says shooing her hand at the girl. “Thank you.” I say to the her, she smiles before leaving. I could see how upset Zama had made her, at least my thank you will change things a bit. there is no controllin
Ruby’s POV “You look gloomy baby, what's wrong.” Owen asks in a really concerned tone. “Yes love, what's the matter, did anyone offed you. Tell me now so I would reap their throat out.” Rowan interjects looking all serious. “What happened darling.” Damien says, I didn’t even notice he was back. I am now in the middle of my mates, they are all looking at me with the same look of concern. Part of me is thrilled to have such attention and the other is afraid of the future. “It's just that I am so tired of drama.” They all turn pale all of a sudden. “I just want us to coexist, even if It's just for today, please.” I ask, looking at them one at a time. They are tall, I tell you and drop dead gorgeous. “Of course baby, anything for you.” Surprisingly, Owen is the first one to answer. I figured he would object, but he didn't, it makes me extremely happy more happy than when Damien and Rowan say it. “Alright boys let's have a blast.” I say smiling. I feel as if a heavy weight has been l
Owen's POV I stand in front of Ruby’s grave, which is decorated beautifully with roses. It has been fifty years since she left us. It was devastating, it's her death anniversary today. Basically, I almost come here everyday, it's where I feel at peace. I'm sure she is with Damien now in another world. I envy him truly, immortality is just a curse. The only consolation I have is my three girls who are all grown now, they are all immortal and out and about living their lives. So, basically, I'm living all alone in this boring world. We merged our realms, but it was fun only when Ruby was with us. I don't want to complain though, we had the best lives together. I sit beside her grave just reminiscing, my memories with her are what I cherish the most now. I miss her every single moment, I don't know how long it will take for me to accept that I don't have her anymore. I don't see her anymore in my dreams, and it upsets me so much. I don't know how but I fall asleep leaning on
Ruby’s POV I'm old and grey now, Rowan and Owen are still glowing, they haven't aged a day in all these years we have been married. Damien is old now too just like me, us wolves we take longer to age, but we eventually do. “Baby I've been calling you.” Owen interrupts my thoughts as I'm sitting at the pouch admiring the sunset. He stands behind me, leans a bit and hugs me from behind. He kisses my saggy cheeks. I pull away, I don't feel confident anymore, it could have been better if we had aged together. “Are you alright baby.” He asks coming in front of me, he kneels on one knee and takes my hand in his. “I'm fine, Owen.” I simply say. “Please tell me what's bothering you, my angel.” He asks, his ruby eyes staring deep into my soul. He almost brings me to tears, I can clearly see the love he has for me in his eyes. It has never faded in fact, it increased with time. My old heart swells in sadness because anytime now I might leave them. I feel so bad, I regret not reco
Ruby’s POV Someone is knocking at the door, it definitely isn't Möbius, he knows the way in because he is one who locked it. I slowly walk to the door, “who is it.” I ask not daring to unlock it. “Can you open the door from the inside, I already unlocked it?” A mans voice echoes from outside. Part of me is happy that someone might help me, but the other part is terrified. “I'm afraid of Möbius, he has my kids.” I say. "plus I don't know who you are." I add. “No he doesn't, your mates already took your children so you don't need to worry they are safe now.” the man says. “Are you sure, please don't lie to me.” I beg, what if its someone Möbius sent to spy on me, what if he kills my children the moment I open the door. The thought of my children being harmed makes me stand rooted on the ground. I can't risk it, I take small steps backwards, and finally, I take a seat on the couch. “Young lady why aren't you opening?” The voice asks. “I'm sorry, I can't, I'm afraid.”
Ruby's POV “My babies.” We appear inside a fully furnished baby room, it has three cribs and everything a baby needs. it's obvious he planned all this before. My babies are lying in the cribs sleeping, I run and kneel before them. They are healthy, oh, thank goddess. “See Ruby, I didn't hurt them. I even made this room just for them, I wanted us to live here together.” He says. I try to ignore his comment, now that my babies are here with me. “Be with me, Ruby, I swear I will treat you like a queen.” He adds. What am I going to do now, I don't even know where I am, I am not that strong I can't even defeat him. “It's enough now they are sleeping now come with me so that you can see your new home.” He says, grabbing me before even waiting for me to get up on my own. He is truly a psycho. I try so hard not to lose my temper. He grabs my hand, escorting me outside the babies room. The door opens up to a tiny and dark corridor. Which in turn leads us to a spacious living r
Ruby's POV We meet Zama right at the entrance of the hospital, I feel so strange being back here considering this is where Möbius kidnapped me at first. “Zama, you?” I ask, what is she doing here, did she come to help me, but how did she know? I almost run towards her, despite all I miss her so much. “Zama you are here.” I say part of me is glad to see her. I almost smile but her expression doesn't look too pleased to see me. “Yes me, b***h, did you think it's the last you saw of me when you confronted me?” She says in a disgusted tone. "I'm back, I only went away to become stronger." I think I thought wrong, she didn't come here for me. But why does she treat me like an enemy. “Did you see Möbius here?” I ask, I hope she tells me. “Of course, I helped him.” She grins. “What? Help to kidnap my children and kill my nannies.” I ask just to make sure. “Yap, I did that my friend.” She stresses the last word with air quotes. "How did you feel when you didn't find them
Ruby’s POV “Finally we have you all to ourselves now.” Owen hugs me from behind as I am taking a breather after feeding the triplets. They are sleeping so soundly now, I have birth to three beautiful girls; Asher, Andy and Asia. They are fraternal though and they don't share a father. By the goddess blessings, I was able to conceive from each of them. Its like a miracle, its almost impossible but it happened. “We hired nannies for you baby, but you still tire yourself.” Damien says taking my hand and leading me to the couch. My body is exhausted, wolf or not, taking care of babies is a lot of work. Ever since I gave birth I started seeing my mom in a different light. I respect her even more now. It's not easy, it needs dedication. My body feels sore and my eyes puffy. My triplets are ten months old now and they are adorable. It's been hard creating time for my mates buy they have been really understanding. I collapse in Rowan's arms, “I'm exhausted.” I say closing my eyes.
Third person’s POV “Baby stop, you might fall.” Owen yells at Ruby who is running upstairs, he can read her thoughts so well, and he is already turned on. He tried so hard to stop himself when she was having her shower. She wanted him too, but was too tired. “Catch me if you can.” Ruby responds giggling. Damien and Rowan are the first to start the stairs, but Owen can't wait any longer, he teleports near Ruby and scoops her onto his arms. “That's cheating.” Damien yells. “Catch us if you can.” And he teleports to the master bedroom on the bed. Ruby is under him, her breathing labored because whatever just happened made her really wet, it was really hot. It made her want them even more. “I want you, baby.” She says, “I want all of you.” She adds, her gaze narrowing. “Oh you are so hot Ruby, why do you make my heart beat so fast.” He asks teasing her lips, buying time to wait for Rowan and Damien because if he starts he wouldn't be able to let her go. “I love you so
Third person’s POV Damien, Rowan, and Owen take turns looking after Ruby. All this while preparing for the surprise they all made for her. After accepting their proposal, they had to give her a present. It was so challenging to think of a perfect gift so they consulted Ruby's mom. Ruby wasn't materialistic, so a thoughtful gift would do the trick. They first had to hide the fact that Ruby was missing from her mother. They could breathe when they finally found her, and now all they wanted was to make her happy each passing day. Owen and Rowan realized that they had limited time with Ruby, they were immortal, but Ruby wasn't. And that meant one day they would part ways for the good. The thought terrified them, and they were envious of Damien since he would age and finally spend enternity with Ruby in the afterlife if there was any. Owen wished that they could make Ruby immortal, and only Rowan had the capability. But it depends solely on Ruby. He prayed that she agrees. He didn
Owens POV “He helped me.” Ruby refers to the guy she called Alfie. Despite being grateful, I feel so jealous that I can't look at him twice. Have we crossed paths with this guy before? I feel so enraged that we weren't the ones who came to her rescue. All in all, I'm still grateful. “I’m so sorry, Ruby. I didn’t mean for you to get hurt like that.” Möbius’ voice brings me back to reality. Before I can say a word, Damien and Rowan corner him by grabbing both his arms. “Take his bracelet off.” I shout knowing he can teleport before getting the punishment he deserves. Immediately Damien takes it off neutralizing his powers. All he can do now is fight fair and square, and I'm sure Rowan and Damien can take him. I don’t want to put Ruby down , I'm afraid something might happen to her again , but I also want to deal with this bastard of a brother. “Don’t worry we will take care of him.” Rowan states as if he has been reading my mind. Out of nowhere a whirlwind appears cau
