102Ariel's POV"You were not present yesterday, why?" Taylor asked as I stepped into the restaurant. I knew I was in trouble with the new manager. I don't want to miss work but it was impossible for me. I was too tired to even think of walking and I can't even walk well. What was I going to tell her now?Lying to her would complicate things. I know what I am saying. I have no choice. I would just tell her that I was not feeling okay. I asked if she was around and Taylor said she was in. I went in the direction of her office. I knocked and got no answer. I began to feel worried that maybe she was mad and won't attend to me. She might even fire me on the spot. No! That won't happen. I pray you the moon goddess again. "Who's there? Come in!" She said. I twisted the knob and pushed it slightly open. I entered and closed it gently. I turned and approached her. "Oh, it's you. Ariel." "Ma'am.""Any genuine reason why you were not present yesterday?" She asked and I nodded. "I w
103Kevin's POVEven from here, I could smell her arousal. I could sense her heat. I know she would come to me soon and beg me to fuck her. It was normal for her to go into heat. But what if she proves stubborn and went to meet another guy to help her out? No! No way. It can't happen. She can't do that to me. Her sweet scent and arousal. Oh fuck. I felt my cock dripping with precum and I swear she was the one doing it to me. I began to imagine her body rocking against mine and my cock in her sweet, tight pussy. Oh, fucking shit! How was I going to do this? How the fuck?I tried mind-linking her but it wasn't strong enough. She kept blocking me out of everything and Oscar is getting mad and possessive. So mad that I am trying to control myself too. The heat was intense and I don't think I can take it anymore. If she could come in right now, I would rip her clothes off and fuck her tight pussy. Till she cums all over my cock. I must have forgotten that it would affect me too. But it
104Ariel's POVSweat covered my forehead and now, I was feeling better. I couldn't believe it had so much effect on me like this. I tried using my fingers but it doesn't work on me at all. I almost ran my mind and I just had to apologize to my wolf. There was a point apologizing to her didn't work. She almost took control and search all over for him. I had to shut her out and apologize to her countless times. She finally got back to herself. I was relieved too. If I could survive this heat, then I can survive anything. My stomach hurts so much that I thought I would die if I didn't take care of myself well. Even after I saw him with Shantel, it hurts but I don't need to think about it too much. The mate bond made it, even harder for me and I was able to chase the memories off. It worked for a while. When I was about to remember again, I took a fresh bath and put on some clothes. I went straight to work. I decided to get some new clothes after Cynthia gave me some money. I didn't u
105Kevin's POVI smiled seeing her getting so worked up by the counter. I could sense her anger, jealousy, and her arousal and I was beginning to like it. I could smell her arousal and it fucking freaking me out. I can't wait to get the whole of her. She doesn't know what she is doing to me. She is making me go nuts for her. I kept smiling at Tikka to make her jealous even more. I could see her looking at us. She kept eyeing us but I cared even less. Tikka got nervous. "I think we should stop this now. It's getting dangerous. She is already thinking it's true." She said. "We are not done yet. This isn't working enough at all.""C'mon." "What are we even doing -"I never allowed Tikka to finish talking before pulling her to me and planting a kiss on her lips. I knew she would come to me and pull us apart. Her wolf won't be able to take it. Her wolf would take control. It was certain and I know her. She won't be able to bear it at all. I am so sure. Tikka tried to push me away
106Ariel's POVCrying won't make my plans work faster. It was difficult to bear the pain of the whip tearing across my skin brutally. At some point, I didn't feel pain anymore. It was easy enough for me to say what I wanted to say. Ace was the one hitting me with the whip and it was crazy how I didn't feel pain. I have gone through this before but before I got halfway, my skin was torn and it hurts then. I planned to escape at the last moment they expected. The hatred I was feeling toward them and the urge to kill them all engulfed me. The urge for me to snap their wretched heads out of their necks surged through me. The hitting wasn't hurting but I was still weak. I wish my wolf, Layla could come to life and heal me. Ace was using his strength to hit me harder but I refused to cry and it was looking like his strength was all in vain. Won't he stop now? I tried to move my body but I feel so weak and I called Layla in my head telling her to wake up. My skin was tearing apart yet I
107Writer's POVThe police officer interrogated Kevin but he got no time for it. His mind was on how to look for his mate. He didn't rest assured. He felt like the more he waited to do nothing, her life was in danger. He just could not wait to find her and pull her into a hug. When Kevin couldn't get himself anymore, he stood on his feet and placed around. The police officer tried to calm him down but he wasn't having it. He ran his fingers through his hair countless times thinking about her. His mind wasn't at rest. Tyler was impatient too. He knew his brother loves Ariel so much. It wasn't his fault. Susan knew who was behind what happened. She knew it was Susan. She needed to visit Susan. She planned on doing that after the police leaves. "You can't tell me to calm down. We are talking about my mate here. These investigations and interrogations would no less anywhere." He muttered and headed to his room. Susan assured the police that everything would be alright. She also told
108Writer's POVTwo days later*"What now? So you are fucking with her now? Tell me! Speak up and stop ignoring my questions or I will report you to your mother that you are fucking -" Chloe wasn't able to finish talking when he wrapped his hand around her neck almost choking her to death and she gasped for air. She gasped for air and he won't release her. "You shut the fuck up!" He said still squeezing her neck. She screamed out so loud and he released her. She fell on the floor and started to cough out loud. Tears streamed down her face and she couldn't stop talking. Her breathing wasn't stable as well. Ace realized what he had done and he bent low to her level on the floor and Pat her back knowing what he did to her by choking her was wrong. He just had to accept that Chloe was his mate now. Chloe pushed him away and got up on her feet. "I thought we all had that intention to kill her off but you were right there messing up with her. What now? Does her cunt taste sweeter than
109ARIEL'S POVWhat the heck is he doing here?Why is he even here? He grabbed me by my waist and dragged me all to his car and before I could even talk, he drove out of the vicinity. I frowned my face and shot him a glare. What does he think he is doing? How does he even know that I was here? I hissed the moment he looked at me. I grabbed the door handle and was about to open it when he gripped my arm trying to stop me. I wasn't even thinking right. His eyes changed colors again and I knew he was mad. "What are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself killed?" He asked using his second hand to support the steering. He watched the road but I cared less. I wasn't interested in whatever he was about to say. "What is it to you? Not like you care about me. Of course, you don't seem to care. Because you are with another girl now." I blurted and turned to the door to open it then it was locked. He had locked it. Was he trying to kidnap me too? What the heck is wrong with him? Then
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
