Kevin's POV…“Thank you! Come again soon!” the waitress beamed gleefully as I walked out of the restaurant. I was done, grabbing Ariel and mine breakfast. I'm very much aware how reluctant she will be to leave the hospital, so it's only advisable I get something for her to eat. With a hand tucked into my pocket and the other holding on to the nylon, I walked slowly back. I wondered if Tikka has awoken. “I pray that she has” I whispered quietly. It is f****** evident that someone must have orchestrated the whole robbery. But who the hell might have done that? Thinking deeply into it is not going to provide an answer, so it's best I do not bother. I stopped walking on the sidewalk as soon as my phone began to ring loudly. Gazing, I gritted my teeth once I saw its Tyler. “Must he be a pain in my ass?” I muttered while swiping the green button. “Kevin, is she awake now! How is Tikka doing?” little brat asked gushingly; so he doesn't care about me, his brother? “I don't know, okay. And
Kevin's POV…I contemplated for a long time whether to go see her. Fortunately, it is still noon, but night it is creeping in slowly. Then again, what could she possibly want from me?If she's going to reprimand me for beating her fucking son to a pulp, then she has another think coming to her. I let out a low hiss and tossed the phone carelessly on the bed. I have better things to do than seeing her. Shortly after that Ariel emerged from the bathroom with water dripping freely from her body—her wet blonde hair stuck rebelliously to her forehead adding so much to her beauty—those pinkish lips of her, although a bit swollen due to our numerous kisses, appeared so tempting; it won't hurt to kiss her again right? Unknowingly, I had been staring for quite a while. “You look like you're going to devour me anytime soon” her sassy tone broke through thoughts. I blinked rapidly, a bit ashamed. “You can't blame me for having such a hot mate” I responded, although it was almost inaudible. Ari
Ariel's POV…I understood perfectly why Kevin is so skeptical about the whole dinner—I am too, but I just have to keep to my words. Asides that, there's something I need to attain from Ace; it might get risky but to ensure a flawless revenge, it must be done. Later that evening, after paying Tikka a visit, I boarded a taxi to the mansion. Throughout the drive, my eyes were fixed on the screen of my phone due to Kevin's persistent text. I don't understand why he's so apprehensive, maybe it's his hunch. I spent the ride there, texting Kevin reassuringly until I arrived. Done settling the fee, I walked into the mansion. Halting at the doorstep, I inhaled as I attempted to knock. Then again, the door suddenly got opened from within, revealing Ace. His face was decorated with plasters—not like I'm surprised; Kevin was ruthless. “Sweetheart!” he squealed, grabbing hold of my hand instantly. Although I felt uncomfortable with his touch, I could merely smirk disgustingly. He shut the door
Ariel's POV…Ace had been a bit sensible, so he paid the cab driver. Arriving at the hospital, I alighted and went swiftly in. My mind kept bugging me to give Kevin a call, but perhaps once I'm done seeing Tikka. After all, she is injured, and it'll only be cruel of me to act nonchalantly. Again I was directed to a ward—different from the previous one she was in; the doctor said it was essential because of the transplant. Pushing the door of the ward open, it revealed both Kevin and Tyler. Apparently, Kevin had been overwhelmed by Tyler's consistent troubles, so he had no choice but to bring Tyler here.“You're back!” Kevin smiled brightly as he came closer. We hugged shortly, since I felt uncomfortable by Tikki's and Tyler's continuous gaze—do they have a problem?“I'm going to say this again; if you all want to make out, then get the f*** out of my ward!” Tikka scrawled playfully. “Honestly, neither of 'em have any self-control” Tyler etched while shaking his head. I ignored Tyler
Ariel's POV…My eyes dilated in shock once he said that—is this fucker being serious right now? I snarled, letting my displeasure show. “College? With you? No, thank you!” I blurted, withstanding the appalled look on his face. “Ariel, are you shitting me? “You're not interested in going to college with me or what?” He rasped astonishingly. “Ace…”“Did I do something wrong again? Tell me if I've!” Ace held my hands and gaped into my eyes—despite how sincere he might look to others, I know too goddamn well he's a phony son of a bitch. I withdrew my hands and turned. “Ace leave. I'm not interested, okay? Don't push it”.I left once I said that, leaving him glued to the floor. Eventually, Ace had to leave, and I felt so relieved—there's nothing on Earth that's going to make me agree to the outrageous offer; I, Ariel, live with that dirtbag? Nah. I'll rather lick the balls of a donkey. “What was that about?” Tikka asked as I walked in with an angry aura lingering around. I scoffed befo
Chloe's POV…Waking up due to the penetrative rays of sun shine, I rolled on the bed before yawning. I woke up only to find myself feeling f****** limb and a bit sore down there. Then again, once I turned over to glance at Ace, I couldn't help but smile recalling the wild night we had—we made sweet passionate love like no other, and he did not hold back. For some seconds, I continued gaping at him with different thoughts running through my head—disturbing thoughts. I let out a sigh while diverting my gaze to the ceiling.Due to her radiant the sun shone, I could tell it's already daybreak; which also means Agnes'll soon barge in here. As much as I do desire for her approval to date her son, I'm getting sick and tired of her f****** attitude—never once has that old hag appreciated my effort but instead complain relentlessly. I am aware the only way to get her approval is by killing Ariel—but how the f*** am I supposed to do that?I am pretentious;not a murderer, and I don't intend to b
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
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
