Ruby’s POV “Take me home Rowan.” I ask the moment we get to the hotel entrance, I know they will need time alone. I need to be alone as well. “Alright Ruby.” He agrees without question. He uses his ability and in seconds I’m in my room, “Forgive us Ruby for leaving you all alone alright.” He apologizes after placing me on the floor. “It's fine Rowan, nothing went wrong, you all came to rescue me and I'm glad you all are in my life.” I say getting on my tip toes and kissing him slightly on his lips, he wraps his hands around my waist pulling me towards him deepening the kiss. I melt into his arms and let him take me. Every worry I have is washed away, I wrap my hands around his neck as he scoops me off the floor. I in turn wrap my legs around his waist. Every contact with my mates seems right, but doing this with Rowan somehow doesn't feel right. I feel like if I continue, I will be betraying Owen and Damien. It could have been different if they were in the room with u
Ruby’s POV I'm disappointed when I wake up all alone on my bed. The bed feels weirdly cold without my men in it. it's hilarious though because I've been sleeping all alone on my bed since I was a little girl. I always wanted to decorate my own room with dolls and staff so mum had to let me be own my own. Now my room seems so empty. I yawn and stretch my body before getting off it. For the first time in my life I'm afraid of going downstairs without cleaning myself up. I hop into the shower, wash my face clean my body brush my teeth before putting on a cute flannel dress. I comb my hair and tie it in a ponytail, do light make-up before heading down. I feel so disappointed when I don't meet them downstairs. I thought I would find them seated waiting for me. 'Jeez Ruby, you have become so needy as if the world revolves around us.' Roxs mocks me, I can feel she is also disappointed though, she is trying so hard to hide it. Well, I've been so distant from mom lately, maybe today I
Ruby’s POV The moment I step out of the cab, from nowhere, someone blindfolds me and gags me. Before I know it, I’m floating on air as if someone is carrying me. I am not given a chance to either speak or defend myself. I try to pick on the scent, but It’s unnoticeable. I hope they didn’t do anything bad to my mother. I try to calm myself, hoping my mates would feel my fear and come to help me. Weirdly, I don’t sense any danger. Maybe it’s because I have faith in my mates. In just a moment I’m placed down and the gag is removed, though my hands are held in place behind me. “Please let me go.” I beg. But I don’t get any response. I try to free myself from the persons grip, but they are too strong for me. Why is my life always so dramatic? “What do you want from me?” I ask, slowly their grip on me loosens, the blindfold comes off too, and suddenly, I’m blinded by the lights the moment my eyes open, I can’t even tell where I am. I start backing away trying to find an exit or
Ruby’s POV I started this, so I have to finish it, what I want has to happen tonight. It's quite scary, but I'm going to make it happen. Now that they proposed to me, I don't think it will be a bad idea. This thought has been running through my mind for a while now. We get into the hotel in a jiffy, having gifts like this is quite lucky. “So darling, what exactly do you want to do to us behind closed doors.” Rowan asks as he grabs his drink from the refrigerator. By his drink I mean blood, that's when I realize I don't actually know my mates. I don't even know their favorite foods, I know absolutely nothing about them. I'm marrying strangers, that thought scares me, what if I can't really cope with their behaviors after marriage. Well I guess I have to know them now, because I can't really help it. Who knew mate bond could be this strong? “Are you okay baby.” Owen's hands on my shoulders bring me back to reality. They are here, I accepted their proposal there is no going bac
Owen’s POV My heart is beating frantically as we head back to the hotel. I don't know how heartbroken I will be when I see the mark around her neck. It's going to crash me, I'm sure, I knew it would happen someday but I always thought we would be able to do it together. I hold my breath as Rowan and me come back to the hotel. Finding Ruby asleep in Damien's arms breaks me. She looks so peaceful, she is covered up to the neck, so I can't really tell if he marked her. Rowan looks devastated as well, he just takes a seat watching them without a word. His expression is so distant, his lower eyelid pencil smudged a little. I've never seen him looking so down. I want to comfort him, but I can't. I feel broken, I take a seat next to him and take a deep breath. This life is hard, but I can't go away from her. What will happen to me if she casts me away? She starts tossing and Damien pulls her towards him even closer. I feel as if my heart is being ripped into two. “I need to pee.”
Damien’s POV Her words make me so scared, I hurriedly scoop her off the ground and literally run upstairs since we are in the underground parking lot. Using the elevator feels like I will be wasting more time. “Try to breathe my love please.” I cry as I see it's so hard for her. What's happening, she was okay just a while ago. Her body is so hot. Third floor seems so far. “Don't close your eyes my love please.” I beg her. She tries so hard to keep them open. All this time she is holding my jacket so tightly, I can tell she is afraid. “Don't be afraid my love I'm here for you, I will not let anything bad happen to you okay love.” I say, trying so hard not to break down. Seeing her like this is breaking me. I wish I could be the one suffering like this, not her. Not my mate. I sprint towards the clinic entrance, it's nearer I couldn't rush her to the hospital. she is losing consciousness, oh goddess please don't let anything bad happen to her. “Ruby please.” I beg, loo
Ruby’s POV “Finally you are awake gorgeous.” I wake up to a strange voice. Maybe I'm still at the hospital. Ouch! My head hurts, I slowly open my eyes and a rush of cold air strikes me. I’m sleeping on something hard that my whole body hurts. It takes a while for my eyes to finally focus because the place seems quite dark. The air in here feels so thick and a smell of wet earth fills my nostrils. Where am I? This place is so chilly. I look above me and I notice something strange, it kind of looks like I'm under a huge rock. Omg it’s a cave, a literal cave. “Don’t exert yourself too much beautiful.” The person says as I try to get up. Why does this voice sound familiar? It sounds chilled but still scary. Everything in me tells me that I am in danger. “Where am I?” I try to ask, my throat is raspy and dry. A dry cough comes out of my throat. It really hurts. “I told you not to exert yourself too much.” He says now in an angrier tone. "I will get you some water." He runs to
Ruby“Girl, I can't wait to go there, I want to see the Alpha's son, I bet he is gorgeous, and sophisticated. I just hope that he didn't bring a girl from the States.” My friend says, adding blush to her cheeks. She goes for a b***hy look, applying dark makeup. Black eyeshadow, black lipstick and long lashes. I decide to just go for light makeup today. I want to dance my heart out, and I don't need some colored sweat dripping on me. I complete my look with a blue jump short and flat boots. I pick my black leather jacket and I place my phone in the pocket closing the zipper. “I am ready now, Zama.” I say as I style my blonde hair in a messy burn. For some reason, I don't want to look dashing as I always do.“Are you serious, Ruby?” She asks, eying my clothes. “That simple? It's the Alpha's party, for goodness' sake.” “I know, let's just go.” I say, starting to head out. “I'm not done yet.” Zama said, still looking at herself in the mirror, I decide to just go outside to wait for
