"Hey, Sydney. No, no...just something I need you to take care of.” The Alpha paused for a little while to let the sweet biker pour his disappointment over him for only calling when he needed something before getting down to the meat of the matter. “Yes. The bastard Clive Manor that my wife hails. Yes.” Again, he paused so the biker could confirm if he meant ‘Birthday girl’. “Yes, she. I want you to burn it." After a quick ‘aye’, a beeping sound followed. The call was quick; no one challenged him nor questioned his decision, so his toss of the phone to his bed was more of a finality, yet as much as he would love a shower and to believe that that was the end of it, his hands found his hair and a sigh escaped his lungs. It took a second for the watermelon clutching his shirt from the crimson stain on his wrist to remind him of the anger coursing through his veins. How dare she? And if that were not bad enough, Ruby wished to crawl back. Another sigh found his lips. He was supp
Adrian M Knox"I am not lying to you, Ruby; I mean it. I mean the words, contrary to myself, I do care about you.""You are not lying?”She asked with a sigh before repeating the words again.“You are not lying.”It did not feel like a question, so he said nothing.“You think those words make it better? Are they some sort of band-aid because, your timing aside, you would wear gloves to touch someone you care about? Does that make sense to you, or are you so enamoured that I am your exception? Oh God, if this is your ‘care’, I cannot imagine if you hated me. What next? Would you not permit yourself to breathe the same air as me? perhaps have me live in a separate manor or an apartment in town?""I'll admit my methods-""No, you will admit nothing. You will say nothing; you will keep whatever is going on buried deep inside like the rest of us and... I will pretend you didn't say anything at all.""You will pretend…Ruby, listen to me. This isn’t spontaneous or a mistake; I truly mean it.
Ruby M. Clive "Wh..what?"For a second, I swear my heart leaves me.She can’t have said-I can't be…“What?”I repeat because the words she spewed are not on the script; they are not words anyone should ever utter to me at this time."Yes, my tests are one hundred-""Shut up, shut- oh god. Why? Why is everyone playing tricks on me? am I- am I wearing a sign on my back that says ‘kick me’ or ‘tell me a practical joke’?”Her lips part slightly before sealing once more.“No, no, I’m not- I would know if I were pregnant.”“Well, that’s not necessarily true if you have never been pregnant before. I mean, what would you relate the symptoms to?”“You are not helping- oh god…oh, Elaine. Oh my god…oh my god, I can’t leave… no, no, you can't tell the Alpha about this."The news refuses to settle within me as each time my mind toys with the idea of my womb carrying life, a new question hits me.What about Elaine? Will we have to be connected now that her mate impregnated me? I cannot stand the
It's pudgy, it's terrifying, and it's soft and smells like butter, or is it toffee?"Baaabbaa"And it utters nonsense all the time.There is nothing dignified about the way the little gremlin eats pumpkin squash with its fat hands and then proceeds to spit it out immediately.Ew."How, uh, how old is he now?"I cannot recall the answer she gives; my question is aimed at politeness since the 'double date' has already been ruined by the little terrorist.The conversations between Alba and I remain flat, while the Alpha and Lycan hit it off enough to head to the gold course together on a dare.I almost wanted to insist that he take the baby with him, but Alba seemed okay caring for him...without her husband or my help—not that my help would be worth much."You okay?"She asks finally as she turns to face me instead of her little gremlin for the first time since the men left."Just fine, why?""Because the Lycan told me what was happening with your mother in the home you grew up in.""Chr
"Anything new?""No, the death threats aimed at the madam and summoning from her phone have completely been replaced by sweeter messages.""Ruby still hasn't realised or asked any of her maids if her line was switched?”"That's not something most confirm at a tumultuous time."His butler added.He gave the man a look as he poured two glasses of scotch from his office's liquor cabinet.To say he was thirsty would be an understatement; he hadn’t expected the Lycan to take their game so seriously or for his friendship with the Lycan to take off.All thanks to the queen’s interest in Ruby, yet again another success he could paste Ruby’s name on, but he was still not convinced she held the facilities to be a Luna.Or was it the other way around? Was she the one who didn’t want to be Luna but had found a way to make it seem as if the idea was his?She was crafty in that way."You are too good at making me nervous, David."He uttered to his butler, who smiled in response."Then I suppose I s
His tone speaks his fury in volumes that make pretending to be unaware of his foul mood seem foolish.My swallow is audible as, once again, my gaze travels to the window, only this time to check if I can survive a jump this high.Before I stand from the seat, the door rips off its hinges with a loud boom that startles me."My doo-""Pregnant? You are pregnant."No words leave me as the giant grizzly-like man squeezes into the room from the hinge-side of the door, immediately swallowing any space I took comfort inOh for...My gaze turns behind his frame, where Sharon stands, looking as if she wants the earth to swallow her whole."Have you never heard of patient-doctor confidentiality?"She mouths an ‘I’m sorry’ as if the words can undo any damage caused."I don't care about any of that! You were going to get rid of my child?"The Alpha yells as his frame towers over my view, blocking her from my gaze and ensuring that all I can see is him."My child, Alpha, the child is mine."I clar
Hello! This chapter has nothing to do with the main story; consider it a parallel universe; it is an extra, hence free. (If you have read ‘Bound to…’, you know the drill.) This is my appreciation for the support you have shown the work thus far; like before, this is a test run. Let me know if this is something you would like to read more of occasionally, perhaps during some holidays or if the bonus is negatively affecting your relationship with the main plot. (Again, think of this as a parallel universe; it is not part of the plot.)—If it is, I’ll scrap them, don’t worry. Quick disclaimer: Most bonus chapters will contain CNC (Consent-non-consent) content. Note: Bonuses will always be free, and the regular chapters resume tomorrow As always, thank you for reading! P.S. There is a limit to how many words I can give in the author’s note, so most bonuses will be split if they exceed the limit. Undercover_Ostritch (Ostrich Ostrich) ** The club is full, and the dim lighting only se
Three years ago, I had everything. I was in an elite university on a scholarship; of course, the poor don’t really catch such breaks, and I was on my way to a cushy job after graduation, then…it all slipped from my fingers. "Beautiful." Wanda utters as she puffs the curls of my reddish-brown hair over my shoulders to cover the excess of my breasts that the flimsy gemstone bra does not. I am a dancer in the strip club, but on auction night, I avoid the stage and opt to waitress instead. The auction is simple: a dancer dances on the stage, and at the end of their performance, they are ‘auctioned off’ for a private lap dance in one of the VIP rooms. I hate VIP rooms. Yes, there is security, but they still work under the sleaze Dominic, so of course, there have been cases of the dancers overdosing on drugs they were forced to take. "Do you have to use the black eye contacts? Your ruby eyes are gorgeous?” Wanda asks as she packs up. “Plus, customers pay more for exotic messes." Exo
Hi! That’s a wrap for ‘The Alpha’s Ruby Obsession’; it has been the wildest ride yet. On matters pertaining to bonuses, they will not always be guaranteed a happy ending or to give a sense of closure. Additionally, going forward, not all stories will have bonuses. On to the main matter: I want a light book for my next project, something that doesn’t make me teary while writing and also, I want to leave the woods for the big city for a while, so I thought, why not get high blood pressure and delve into the world of greedy mother-in-laws and audacious husbands in My next book, a billionaire romance, ‘Trillionaire After Divorce’. It should be out by January if all factors are cooperative; it will not be as tragic as this one, but it will still have some darkness...and tons of romantic angst. I’ll tell you this in advance: be ready to throw hands at audacities! As usual, it will be 18+; whatever will I do without smut? As always, thank you for reading, and hopefully, I will see you in
** Ruby. "Last step. Just jump. I will catch you." I whisper to Elle, who throws her little arms around my shoulders as she takes her leap of faith gracefully. "Good girl." I praise her quickly before placing her on the ground and holding her hand so we can run across the empty street. It was not in any of my plans to use the window at one a.m., essentially alerting my little sister, Elle, of something going wrong, but I had no choice; Dominic had his men surround my apartment, so if I stayed, I would be forced to sleep with men, now that I have been injected contraceptives on his coin already. After helping Elle in the car waiting for us, I hop in the passenger seat before Wanda drives off. “Thanks, Wanda.” I utter finally as we enter the main road. “Baby, this is stupid; you know Dom will never let you go.” "He will if you seduce him for me. " I utter softly, and her light and refreshing laugh lighten the mood in the car. “Open the glove box.” I do as she asks, but insi
Adrian "That's the girl." Adrian's gaze lifted in the direction his friend pointed. "The number one of business school." It didn't irk him as much as Leon, his best friend, meant for it to; after all, numbers meant nothing to him unless they were in the form of currency and had never found a soul wealthier than his family, even in the university. In fact, it didn't matter so much that he wanted to walk to her and invite her to his group, scholarship or not; she earned the right to associate with him, at least within the confines of the school. "Tell her to join us. No, tell her that she can be sitting with us instead of alone." He ushered Elaine; she was something of a kid sister to him. "What? Why? She is poor; I highly doubt that she can purchase from our section; you’ll just make her feel bad." "She stole my spot in the school, so I want everyone to know she earned the right to sit with us. Plus, we can buy her food if she can’t afford it." The notion made little sense to
The last Chapter of the Bonus will be tomorrow. ** “I didn’t ask you to protect me! I wasn’t in danger.” His sneer rises, and I wince, anticipating another slap, but instead, he clicks his tongue. “You will need to visit a family planning establishment to get your affairs in order; if you are going to start taking in men, then-” “I will get you the money!” “By tomorrow? Because your debt just went up by eight hundred thousand.” “I didn’t ask you to interrupt. Don’t give the refund let me go out there and-.” Dominic’s hand rises, and I flinch before the sound of his tongue clicking against the roof of his mouth echoes once again. “I will give you the day off tomorrow, but Maurice will escort you to the family planning centre. I’ll show you an easy way to pay me back if you are in such a rush to escape me. Now, take that coat off. You look stupid wearing it.” "Will I look more dignified to the men you intend to whore me out to?" Dominic winces, but his expression does not soft
Hi! Quick disclaimer: The bonus stories are not guaranteed a happy or ‘closure-inducing’ ending. Please read at your own risk. Adrian’s hands waste no time lowering to my ass to part my flesh apart. "You are not permitted to touch-" “‘Touch the stripper’? I know, but can't you take it as me making your work easier? I am doing you a favour.” “I highly doubt a yeast infection counts as a favour. Either lower your pants because your boxers are certainly cleaner to press against, or let me do my dance in peace.” His hot breath coats my ear as he chuckles. His hands leave my ass to fiddle with his belt and lower his zip, but mother of Christ, why are his knuckles grazing against my centre while he does this? I am certain I have lifted my hips enough for there to be no contact between us. The feel of his fingers hooking upward tells me that his actions are on purpose. But before I can protest, his fingers leave my centre, and instead, his hips thrust upwards on my bare and sensitive
“Hand me the tape, Joy.” I ask as I hold the last box in place before the garments pop out. “Just a second! Elle, don’t run with scissors!” Elle’s laughter sounds across the hall, making it exceedingly clear that there will be no assistance any time soon. With a sigh, I consider letting the box’s contents explode open, but in the nick of time, a tape gun is pressed on my shoulder. “Oh, thank God. Tape it for me; my arms are holding… the box…closed.” I drawl as surprise takes over my body, causing my grip on the box to lessen such that its contents spill out. “...Adrian?” I call as I stand, ignoring the mess I made. "So, you were going to leave." He utters as if he were merely seeking my confirmation on the matter. "Adrian.” I call with a sigh before looking for the best choice of words. “What are you doing here? We talked about-" "You were going to abandon me again?" The loudness in his voice jostles me. There is a certainty in which he asks his question that leaves me
Ruby M. Clive ‘This was fun.’ The words play again in my mind before the fatigue I convinced myself was the sex finds me. "Fun." I toy with the word again before looking at my reflection in the mirror. The makeup hid the puffiness of my face well, but the redness remained regardless of the amount of concealer used. My legs feel weak, so I let my flesh crumble to the ground as more tears overcome me. I hate how easily I cry these days, but more than that, I hate the delight that found me when his wolf recognised me. He fell asleep with his length inside me, and I couldn’t pull it out; even now, I can still feel his shape inside me. My gaze lingers on the gauze on my hand; beneath it lies his teeth marks that ooze the scent of the ocean despite the amount of time I rinsed the wound. I don’t get it; no one has ever recalled the past in my presence before, so how could he? It makes sense for his wolf to remember me; we were mates, but not him, his hatred for Clives should prevent
A groan found Adrian’s lips with ease when his hands stroking the space next to him confirmed that it was cold, meaning she had left quite a while ago.His canines tasted of blood; did he bite himself?“Fuck! That’s so embarrassing!”He cursed, recalling how desperately he begged her to tell him who the man she loved was and how easily she drew a line with him. He didn't want to wake up; the bed wasn’t even his, but he didn’t want to leave it because the moment he did, he would have to face the consequences of the deal they had made—never seeing her again.But was the deal still in effect if she wasn’t there like she promised to be?"Oh, you are up-"Ruby said as the bathroom door opened, and he took in her glowing sight that was emphasised by the steam from the hot shower.She looked fresh and clean but also dressed up. She had on her robe and a full face of makeup, all while her hair remained wrap
Adrian watched Ruby’s flesh devour his hard shaft slowly; she only used her hands to steady his length inside her.If he were any more dazed, he would shove himself inside her, but she was far too tight for such an act not to cause her discomfort, so his teeth found his lip in search of patience before he spoke.“Are you okay?”He asked when the shadow of a wince crossed her face; his member wasn’t even halfway through.It was quite the awkward question to ask, considering that he was her source of discomfort, so while a part of him prayed that she wouldn’t back out, the other prepared for what felt inevitable.“Yes…yes, I just need a moment.”She uttered.“Are you sure? We could stop-”“I am certain.”She said with a laugh that once again undid him; how did she do that?How did she captivate him with such ease?His eyes fell on her large breasts that seemed to spill on her chest before returning to her eyes.Who was he?Who was the one man who had seen her in this way?He was clearly
