Ciara's POV I wasn't surprised when we didn't find Adrian home by the time we got there, we knocked, knocked and knocked at the door, calling names but no one answered, the door had been locked. Ruby smirk with satisfaction but I pretended as if I didn't see her, she wasted a whole lot of time on the way here, giving different excuses that was making us stop on the way now and then and since then I had known what her strategy was. She probably knew that if we get there early, we would meet him at home and he knew the perfect time he wouldn't be home. This was her game but she wasn't aware that I knew how to play it more than she could. We arrived there early noon. "I told you he won't be home... He isn't jobless at all. He must have gone to his work place, he works as a chef somewhere." Ruby complained as she sat on a log at one side of the entrance. "Why didn't you tell me this before we left the pack-house?" I asked her and she rolled her eyes at me. "You told m
Ciara's POV When we arrived at the pack house, I was aided by the soldiers to pull Ruby who was struggling to release herself from my grip. I instructed the soldiers to go throw her into one dingy room and asked some soldiers to help me watch over her. "She must not get out of here, otherwise you are dead. She is a criminal, she will get her punishment once the Alphas arrived, so be vigilant." I told them. "She won't." They said and I headed straight into the room where Jenna a d Marshall was selecting jewelries that a jeweller had brought to them. There was no special occasion, the jeweller must have persuaded them to get jeweleries. Jenna was the one who noticed me first. "Beta Ciara... Where have you been? You said you will return early but look at the time, it's almost evening." She asked me, approaching. "Jeweller, can you please excuse us? Come later for your jewelries." And with that, she left. I collapsed exhaustedly on the sofa and letting out a deep br
Ciara's POV "What do you have to say to what she just said? Did she tell you that Alexia's ex boyfriend is Adrian or you are the one who gave him a name?" Michael asked me but I was utterly dumbfounded. Ruby told them already that Alexia's boyfriend is Nathan... This would make me look as though I was the one lying and I couldn't get this lie off me without being sensible. I looked at Ruby, her expression was still the same. "Well Michael..." I started. "If I tell you that I don't have an idea of what is happening right now you probably won't believe me. This girl in front of you is a big time trickster. You heard all I explained to you right? That is the truth and that's what happened, I want you to believe me and not this girl." "But why should we believe that you are the one saying the truth?" "Alpha, let me speak the truth now..." Ruby stood up, she looked left to me and right to the Alphas. "If I had known that this was Beta Ciara's plan, I wouldn't have go
Ruby's POV Yes! Yes! I made it! I did it! This was so overwhelming and I couldn't believe I succeeded in making everyone believe me. Can anyone be as perfect as I? I doubt it. I laughed again. I collapsed on to my bed, happily smiling and ululating. I was able to clear Ciara away from this track, she must be doubting herself by name. She also would not believe it, it would look like a dream to her. I even thought she was going to mention going to Adrian but fortunately for her, she didn't. Because if she had, she would have only created more problems for herself, no one would even try to trust her anymore because I knew Adrian was going to deny the whole thing that happened, especially when he sees the Alphas of the Blue howl pack. Hold on! Really, am I so bad? Even if I am is it my fault? It's cool, I don't care at all_ All I want to see is Alexia's ruination, I want to ruin Alexia's relationship otherwise, I would not stop. This girl has to suffer more, in fact, she has t
Ciara's POV "I am sure you guys are waiting for her to go out of the house." From behind us came a voice er could recognize. We turned around and saw Ruby, with her smirking face exuding her antagonism. I clenched my fists to control my anger that was building up inside of me. What was she doing here now? "Oh no dear, don't look at me with that kind of eyes... I know that's what you guys are waiting for and that's the reason the Alphas didn't go to their office today. Are you guys scared? You don't have to be, it's normal for you to trust people you aren't supposed to." She glimpsed at the sky above her and returned her cold, dirty and mean eyes to us. When she saw that none of us answered her, she continued. "Okay, let me sooth your mind. Can you see Alexia going in now? She has gone to dress up and she will be leaving in ten minutes... I think that's enough for you to prepare for your shadowing, just don't be too heart broken. You know I can't bear to see you guys in pa
Alexia's POV "You know I love you so much, thanks for coming to meet me my darling. I will do everything for you." I angrily elbowed him in the stomach and he released me groaning and his eyes dilated upon seeing the Alphas and their family. My heart palpitated as looked at the angry faces of all of them and I wondered what was going on. I was absolutely confused. "So, you've really moved on..." Was what I heard from Miles that brought me back to my consciousness. I was frozen up... My eyes were as wide as a goggle. I was suddenly sweating profusely, I felt stuck. I could feel my throat tangling up together. I didn't know what to say. My eyes travelled from Miles to Michael, from Michael to Ciara and from Ciara to Ruby who smirking now and then. I felt like I was going to collapse anytime soon as my eyes turned around. I gulped and took a step back. I didn't know what was happening at that moment. How did they get here and what were they doing here? I had alot of ques
Alexia's POVI almost cried my eyes out of their sockets behind the door I sat, leaning on. I was angry at myself, angry at the Alphas, angry at Ruby. I was angry at myself because I trusted Ruby, the Alphas couldn't support me and trust me and I was angry at Ruby because she was the one making life seem more difficult for me in what I deemed to be my Haven. They all stood in front of my door, knocking severally and begging me to open but I didn't listen any of them, despite their sweet words and convincing promises. I felt hurt. I couldn't think of a thing that would pacify me and make me feel less angry at them, I just felt like crying more and more, I wanted to cry out all the pain in me and become empty of pain and discomfort. How could Ruby do this to me, someone I considered to be a part of me. How could she betray me like that and try to end my relationship with my mates and they as well believed her? Why was life this hard to me? Was my fate just cursed or was I the ac
Ruby's POVI almost threw my phone against the wall when I tried calling Kayla severally but she wasn't answering my calm nor was she calling back. The same thing happened yesterday and the day before yesterday. I had been calling her for the past six days but she didn't even bother to pick up and not all time do I get the chance to give her calls because I am now like a treasure in the pack-house which is always guarded heavily by soldiers. I only get breathing spaces during their training time or something where all the soldiers would have to gather together. I didn't leave my quarter just the way Miles had instructed me not to, but I badly wanted to leave... I had no idea of what was going on in the head quarter, I didn't know how the relationship of the Alphas and Alexia was in the house... How would I know progress? How would I make sure they stay away from each other? There was time I tried sneaking out through another route after pretending to be receiving some fresh coo
