Ariel's POVMy eyes dilated in shock as he said that. Does he honestly think he can boss me around?“Who the fuck do you think you are?” I ended up yelling at him.“I'm your mate, Ariel! So stop acting like a kid and come live with me now!” his tone was a bit slow as he loosened his grip. I couldn't stop myself from gaping at him. Glancing at my wrist, I gritted at its redness. In my past life, when Ace and I were dating, he has never acted savagely with me. Maybe I've never seen this side of him, but I'm still shocked. Come to think of it, I died in August, and now it's December. Of course, I get to see unpredictable things, depending on how long I'll live. But never did I imagine that Ace would act so unforgiving towards me. Apart from the fact that I am his mate, should he really be treating a lady in this manner?I glared at him murderously before rolling my eyes. “You're joking. You're fucking joking. You ain't shit to tell me what I am or what I'm not supposed to do! Who do y
Chloe's POV“Chloe, don't mind her. She doesn't deserve a friend like you,”“You deserve someone better than Ariel. Mind being my friend?”“It is understandable if you did her wrong, she's worthless anyway,” “I heard Ariel was partially responsible for the death of a grandmother. Chloe, you should stop hanging out with someone as dangerous as her,”“Despite all you do for her, she doesn't appreciate you. What a bitch!"All these comments kept flooding in as I sat on my chair. My face was lowered, and it made it virtually impossible for anyone to see the last smile playing on my lips.What a bunch of fools they all are. I can't believe my plan worked better than I expected. I only anticipated that'll throw shades at Ariel. But surprisingly, they keep on consoling me with cheesy comments. Now I'm the good guy while Ariel is the motherfucking btch.‘Does getting praised feels this amazing ?’ I wondered joyfully. I merely lifted my head once Ace's scent filled my nostrils. As expected, m
Chapter sixteenAriel's POVAfter my last statement, the dining room got engulfed in silence. No one said anything, but the shocked looks on their faces portrayed their emotions. “Ariel dear, you want to start working? But why? We've got everything that you will ever desire,” Agnes stood immediately. It took a lot out of me not to roll my eyes sarcastically at her. It isn't much of a big deal, so I don't see why the fuck they are getting so worked up. “Ma'am, it's not an abomination for a girl my age to involve herself in minimal jobs. I'm also trying to survive, and I can't be dependent on you guys forever,” I tried to reason with them, but I guess they are all a bunch of blockheads. “Dependent? What the hell are you saying? So now you want to be independent or what?” Ace growled aggressively. Moreover, he banged the table with his fist, sending a handful of food to the ground.“Girl, there isn't a valid reason for you to start working. Why would you want to stress yourself when
Chapter seventeen. Ariel's POVDue to the raucousness of my tone, Tyler got shocked, and he fell heavily on the floor.“Ariel!” he growled, visibly displeased at me. He winced while standing up from the ground. Yet, I couldn't believe what he just said. Kevin has a crush?Okay. I know that shouldn't surprise me, considering how deadly handsome he is, but we are mates. Despite that, he went to see some girl who is drooling over him?Isn't that a bit unfair? I clenched my fist angrily as I tried my best not to let out another scream. The news is so overwhelming for me to control that I stood up.“Is something the matter? Or you're going to scream again?” Tyler asked with his eyes fixed on me. I let out a deep sigh before facing him. “Nothing's wrong; everything's fine, totally fine. And I apologize for yelling unexpectedly,” I apologized with a small smile spreading on my lips.“It's nothing. And you can apologize by helping me make dinner,” he arose from his seat and began walking t
Chapter eighteen. Kevin's POV Sighing for the umpteenth times, I never realized Tyler had been glaring murderously at me. But he has been that way since what occurred last night. Then again, I'm fed up with his fucking glare. “Can you stop that? Or you want me to gouge your eyes out!” I scrawled meanly at him. He huffed, seeming so unfazed. “Wouldn't it be better if you kick me out instead? You unhesitatingly did that to Ariel, so it won't be a shock to me,” he retorted cheerily. Oh, fucking gawd. How the hell am I supposed to get the information through this little bastard head that I didn't kick her out! “Tyler, for the love of the moon, I didn't kick her out; she left with her boyfriend. Why can't you get it?” I was totally frustrated at how block headed he can be. Snarling at me, he remained stubborn. “Believe what you may, okay? Fuck it. I'm going to school,”. Since breakfast was so unappetizing due to his attitude, I picked up my bag and attempted to leave the dining r
Chapter nineteen Ariel's POV“Calm down? The hell! Look what this bitch did to me? And hell! My flight's in 30 minutes!” Shantel, I assumed kept yelling at the top of her voice, gathering unnecessary attention. Truthfully, I would have loved to stick a cork into her mouth, but that'll seem offensive. The pay here is good, and it's not too stressful, and I get to head back home pretty late, isn't that enough reason to endure this bitch's nagging?So, I continued apologizing, even though it wasn't sincere; she's the one clearly at fault. Anyone with seeing eyes could tell, unless whosoever is dysfunctional. Her friend, however, seemed tired of her endless ranting.“Shantel, look it's just a little stain,” she said softly. Shantel's eyes flared up in anger.“A little stain? Mina, are you fucking with me!”“Okay. Forgive me. Let's go to a mall or something. Okay? The waitress has apologized. We should leave unless you want to miss your flight to France,” Minaj said suggestively. Shantel
Chapter TwentyAriel's POVTrembling in fear, I couldn't stop myself from biting my lips extremely hard. The look on Ace's face is scaring the shit out of me. Why the hell is he staring at me so lustfully? Even his lips were held in a lewd smile. He's never gazed at me with such unholy eyes before. And seriously, I am so afraid. “What…are you doing, Ace? Stop ogling at me like that!” I screamed out, insanely loud; I wanted to attract attention. I need anyone, someone, or anything to disrupt this moment. Unless Ace is going to do something we're both going to regret.He snarled, probably vexed at how much I yelled. “Stop shouting!” he growled demandingly.“That's not going to happen. If you don't let me go, then get ready to be the center of attention!” I blurted raucously. Ace gritted furiously as his eyes roamed around shortly. Maybe he saw someone heading towards us, so he dressed normally. I heaved a sigh of relief as he returned his manhood to its rightful position. I assumed A
Chapter Twenty-oneKevin's POVWhat occurred last night was kept a secret from Tyler. If that little rat ever gets to know that Ariel got abused by Ace, then I'm sure he's going to kill me. To him, I'm obliged to always be by her side and rescue her. But fortunately for me, I returned home last night only to find him sleeping in bed. While I made breakfast this morning and left for school, he didn't utter a word about Ariel. I was thrilled I got down the address of the waitress in the restaurant, same thing with her contact info. As expected, Ariel will be living with her from now on. Despite how much I wanted her to stay with me, I have to respect her decision. After all, I was the one who gave her the permission to leave. But I couldn't help but consider the fact that Ace might be stubborn—there's a possibility he will do everything in his power to get Ariel back. Sigh….It's all getting on my nerves. I just wish she could f****** tell him everything about us. If he refuses to bac
124Ace promised to kill Ariel but went insane when Chloe appeared to him telling him to stop that he can't win against her. He laughed hysterically showcasing mental disorder. Kevin proposed marriage to her and she tried to refuse it but then she thought about it and later. She agreed and they got married. They became the youngest Alpha and Luna. Susan called the elders and planned to tell them that it was time for them to reveal the truth about her son. They called meeting between Susan and Agnes. Agnes was told the truth.Agnes got angry including Ace. Chloe fought with them. Agnes used her powers on Susan but got hurt instead. The elders didn't get to make their verdict. Agnes vowed to kill everyone of them. He pulled out and grabbed my waist. He made me turn back and my ass in the air. My two palms were on the bed. This guy is freaking crazy. In my asshole, he slammed into it so hard that I gripped the bedsheet even harder. He didn't slow down for a minute at all. He pummeled
123Chloe was rushed to the hospital but died on their way there. She died on Ace's laps. Ace cried his eyes out and blamed his mother for killing chloe. Agnes got tired and promised to kill Ariel herself. Ariel's POVAmidst the music playing in the evening, I received the other seven customers. I wrote it down so I won't forget. Some people just love crazy combinations of food. How can you suddenly order Ramen and Rice Krispies? Like who does that? I stared at the old-looking woman. She was looking pale and haggard. More in a poor condition. Gross!But I felt pity for her. Where are her children? Does she even have one? Those questions ran across my mind. She doesn't look like she has a family. She smiled at me and I returned the smile. I feel sorry for her though. She was in her old age with no one to take care of her. "You look pretty." She said to me. "Thank you, ma'am," I muttered to her. She reminded me of my grandmother. I wish she is still alive. She compliments me every
122 He followed behind me. When I got to the entrance. He talked. "How do you know what they are planning?" He asked. "Let's just say everything happened for a reason. I will go sleep now.." I told him and walked away. On getting to the room, I removed my clothes again and dropped them on the couch. This time, I climbed on the bed and slept immediately. * Three days later, We were being called on the phone that our results are out. I felt shivers running down my spine. Oh goodness! I hope I pass. I hope, I hope, I hope. Because this will serve as a stepping stone for me in getting closer to my university days. I was in university when my life was cut short my those stupid bitches. I was ready to go. Anxiety crept into my body when I and Kevin got to school. We were holding hands and that somehow made me calm my nerves down. I was relieved but not exactly. We weren't in our uniforms because some students had planned to throw a party when everyone passed the exam. I was pu
121 "What if it was a lie? Do you know what she is planning? It might be that she is planning something against you, you know and you believed her. Cmon.. " "I need to go see her. I feel like she is beginning to change for the better." I said and he sighed. "Fine! Then I will follow you." "You don't have to do that all. I will just go on my own." "It's either you let me go with you or you are not stepping out of this house." He muttered. I sighed. Does Agnes really think that she could hurt Aunt Susan? Susan is a very powerful woman. Among the scarlet's pride. She is the superior and Agnes was superior to her. What does she think she could do to Aunt Susan. The first I did when we arrived home was to get a glass of water. I prevented Tyler from getting hurt and I dealt with Ace and Chloe too. Thinking they would hurt him. He is still hasn't discovered his powers yet until he clocks seventeen. He is still sixteen. I had almost drained my power because of them. Those monste
120 "That what?" Agnes asked impatiently. "That i am the next in line to rule the pack? As the Alpha?" Ace bluffed and I shot him a death glare. How dare he say that? He is not even showing any sign that he will be the next Alpha in line. How would he explain that? "Without showing any sign of an Alpha, you can't rule." Elder Miguel completed. Agnes sprang up and hit her palm on the table. Why the hell can't this woman just calm the fuck down? She just needs to listen and hear the truth. The bitter truth that will ruin them forever. "What are you trying to insinuate?" Agnes blurted and the Elders stood up at her at once. Together. "Why cant you just listen to us, woman? Why are you such in a hurry? The respect we are still according to you is because you are the past Alpha's mate. We can't just disregard you like that and take the decision behind you. Remember that once the Alpha dies, the mate isn't regarded as the Luna anymore. Do you understand?" Elder Frank buttressed.. A
119Ariel's POVAfter the sex we had last night, I became sore all over and exhausted up till now I was still exhausted. He had slammed into me and fucked me like he hated me. He did it like he despised me. He poured all his anger, emotions into me and I took it like the good girl he said I was. He made me cum like five times in a row before leaving me alone. I couldn't walk back to bed on my own. He had to carry me to my room. He bathed for me and we still fucked in the shower. He slammed harder like I was going to lose my life.After that, I collapsed on his arms and he put on a pajama for me. He wore it on me and placed a kiss on my forehead. I slept off like a baby on the bed. I woke up sore this morning and I tried to stand on my feet but then I realized that I couldn't. I tried again and again. As I took a step with my shaky legs, I fell on the bed and gave up on standing up. I took my phone and checked the the time. Oh my goodness! What? This is twelve in the afternoon. So I
118"Stop it!" I yelled at him. It wasn't choking though but his anger was going to ruin things. Then I felt his hand trailing down my neck to my breast. I hope I can do something to calm him down. To make him listen to me. What can I do? I need him to calm down so we can talk things out."Fine! You can carry out your anger on me. Transfer everything on me but not on anyone else. If you want my body, I will give it to you. Just don't hurt anyone. Please. I am begging you. Forgive your mom, she is trying to protect you." I said. "But she hurt me. She should have let me known my identity before. If she had told me so far, it wouldn't have led to this" He said and turned his back. He was staring the buildings through the window. Maybe I could comfort him with my body. He could have me now and stop getting angry. If he could transfer his aggression on me so I would feel his pain. I walked over to the door and locked it. I took off my crop top and threw it on the table. And my shorts to
117Alpha Eloho Dawson?The past Alpha? She was a mistress to him. I didn't find any problem with that though but the fact that she kept it away from her children so they won't think that she is a bad person was not so right. I am not judging her though because she has been a very good person and I love her too. .Tears rolled down her cheek countlessly. I have never seen her in this state before. She was always smiling. Smiling like nothing was never wrong. Now I know. Most people that smile have one or two problems they are battling with. There are many sad things behind their smile. I moved closer to her and pulled her into a hug. I consoled and she rested her head on my shoulder. It was then I realized those people that are involved. Wait! If Kevin and Tyler are Alpha Eloho's children then they are Ace's stepbrother. Ace is in next in line to be Alpha. Oh my goodness! This is a battle. A bigger battle that won't end so quick. And in this land, it was said that anyone that has
116One week later*After that day, we didn't later have sex because I told him that I needed space and he should give me time. He agreed with me. I could remember his words vividly. *I will only give you three weeks to get over everything and till then I won't make a move on you. I won't touch you. Just know that when the three weeks elapses, I am coming back to take my place in your heart. To mark you all over and we will start from there. I can't leave you forever, that's impossible!*Those were his words and he was true to his words because it had been a week now. He hasn't touch me or make any move on me. We only said our greetings when I bump into him in the house. I need to make my plans before the three weeks elapses. I have been training at the field behind the house. Susan didn't allow me to go back to my house so I have been living with them. Tyler and I had started talking again. I could now walk from one place to another. There was no problem. Only Jerome and Chris have
