Ariel's POV…The ride to the mall seemed lengthy, since we've been driving for some time now. Personally, it's been quite long since I visited the mall—it's a super fancy and extravagant mall that Chloe loves to visit; to her, the cheap ones aren't good enough. I let out a sigh while staring outside the window—I'm getting bored. Slowly, I regretted coming along with her, but I had a motive. I'm definite she wants to shop for prom which undoubtedly not attending, but I need new clothes. Purchasing clothes for myself and Tikka isn't a had idea, right? As the drive persisted, my phone began blaring. “Who's that? Oh, don't tell me that's Ace?” Chloe smirked annoyingly at me. I glared lightly at her, then glanced at the caller's ID; it's Kevin. Speaking to him while Chloe's around won't be a good idea; thus I declined the call. “That's Ace right? Seriously girl you've got to start treating him right! Y'know he loves you” Chloe said with a smile lingering on her lips.Since she's drivin
Ariel's POV… I fucking knew it. I had a feeling something was totally off when Chloe invited me to go out with her. Not only that, but I mean, it's quite obvious she will try to harm me since I've been giving her the cold shoulders. But planning with thugs to beat me up? Seriously, that bitch is so shameless. I quicken my pace, trying to outrun them while hoping they will f*** off. Then again, the f****** sons of bitches were downright persistent. Yet, I try my very best to shake them off, but it was fruitless. Thankfully, an alleyway was up ahead, so I took a corner. I leaned against the wall while breathing heavily since I was f****** scared—what the f*** am I supposed to do? Call Kevin? No, that's a horrible idea—I would rather not seem too dependent on him. I steadied my breath as I mustered enough courage to face these bitches. “You got this, Ariel. I can totally do this” I repeated slowly, and surprisingly, my words sounded reassuring. I took a peek secretly and to my surpr
Kevin's POV…“Aren't you going to the prom? You're already so dressed up!” Tyler uttered from behind. Without turning to glance at him, I could see his reflection through the mirror. Unlike me who's dressed up handsomely, he's in his pajamas—about to jump into bed. I smiled brightly, just thinking about the fun night ahead; I can't wait for the dance. It's something I've always wanted to do with Ariel. Technically, it won't be around seeing eyes because I have an exceptional place where I want to take Ariel too. I simply can't wait. Done styling my hair beautifully, I did a few more touches. Tyler scowled from behind, and I could only imagine why.“Oh? Don't tell me that you're jealous? Don't be baby bro, okay? Someday you'll attend prom, although your mate won't be as lovely as mine” I smirked arrogantly—that's right, I can't restrain from bragging about Ariel. I mean, she's fucking hot and goddamn gorgeous. Who in their right minds won't be gleeful to have her as a fated?“What's
Ariel's POV…With my heart thudding recklessly in my chest, I ogled at a perplexed Kevin—he didn't seem to understand what I just uttered, and I can't say I blame him. He's bound to be overly perplexed, but I'm sure he will get over it in due time. Although he is yet to know anything about me, he has treated me kinder than anyone else—I feel indebted to him. Of course, he is a being with feelings; his feelings are understandable, and I can't help but feel like a jerk for keeping him in the dark for so long. “Reincarnation? Like… being reborn?” he rasped questioningly. I nodded in affirmation, then held his hands more tightly. “Ariel…?” he called slowly due to the tightness of my grip. “Before I tell you everything, promise you won't be afraid of me. Promise me that you will never leave my side” I requested and the desperation in my tone was evident—I don't give any f*** if I'm being desperate, but I can't lose Kevin. He is one of the good things in this life that I don't want to ev
Ariel's POV…Well, the recent events only led to me and Tikka gaining admission into our dream college and Kevin inclusive. It turns out we all applied for college and fortunately all gotten. To be precise, preparations took 2 more weeks. Presently, we're in Kevin's car as he drove. His car stopped in front of the building, and I alighted with Tikka. “Whoa!!!” Tikka shouted, turning to every angle to look around.I, on the other hand, had my mouth wide opened too as I stared, holding my backpack straps tightly. “Dream come true” I smiled, imagining what the school will look like if the hostel is as luxurious as this. “Okay girls! I'll help get the bags out” Kevin said, and we all both rushed to the trunk to take out the bags.Once they're down, he inhaled.“I'll miss you, Ariel!” He smiled, and I hugged him tightly. “Stop saying that. We're only some blocks away; your hostel won't be far from mine, right?” I asked eagerly. He nodded and I smiled again. “Remember I love you!” I hu
Tikka's POV…Honestly, watching Ariel beat the crap out of that f****** b**** sent a lot of Joy to my soul. At least for once, she did more than talking and actually taught the whore a lesson. I do admit it might have been over the top, but it was well deserved. Currently, I was trailing after Ariel as she stormed into the room. Liana and Lily also came into the room, and they couldn't stop smiling. Although they might not know the complete history of Ariel and Jenna, I bet watching Ariel act so crazy made them smile. “I swear to the moon goddess, that was wonderful!” Lily beamed cheerfully and twirled. “I know right? Ariel, you never told us you were a badass” Liana added. Ariel didn't seem to be in a chatty mood as she went straight into the bathroom—maybe taking a bath will cool her head?“Why is she suddenly acting cold to us? Did we say something wrong?” Lily couldn't help but ask slowly. “Tikka?” they both turned and glanced at me, and I merely shrugged my shoulders. “I did m
Ariel's POV…“Kevin! Kevin!” I kept calling as I walked hurriedly to his hostel. I'm very aware I'm not supposed to be here, but what can I do?Not only that, but I've been worried sick about him, especially since he refused to pick my calls. I want to know whether he's angry at me or not. Earlier today, I left the room without informing either Tikka or our newly found roommates; I'll remain unsettled until I see Kevin. The male's hostel isn't that far from the females, so it took me a short while to arrive. Yet, I made sure to leave before anyone is fully awake. Honestly, I would rather not encounter any assholes right now.“Fuck! I don't even know his door number” I hushed, feeling so stupid. I grunted then ruffled my hair, getting frustrated already. I stood confusingly in the hallway, then resorted into calling him; hopefully, he'll fucking pick. As I dialed his number, the door to a room was opened. Gazing sharply at it while hoping it'll be Kevin, my face fell once Ace came ou
Ace's POV…What the f*** Was that power? Did Ariel seriously do that? — like how? Why? And when did she learn stuff like that?There I laid on the floor and continued to wallow in sheer pain. Never in my life have I been in this kind of pain—I am certain that a bone or two might have been broken in me. Yet, Ariel played total obviousness to my presence and went over to that black bitch. I wonder why the f*** That lady is her friend.Slowly and painfully, I managed to get up. As assumed, I can barely walk since my left leg got dislocated. "Fuck” I mumbled hurtfully. I had to hold on to the wall for support, and then Ariel snapped her head towards me. I gulped down nothingness, a bit terrified at her blazing eyes of anger. This is definitely going to be the first time that Ariel has glared at me murderously. The discomfort I felt was so great I had to look away from her. But that didn't stop her from marching towards my direction. I had expected she would apologize for what she just d
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
