The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy: Casual Banter
A laugh almost escapes me, but the bitterness swirling in my chest makes me fear that I might cry instead should I voice my pain. So, my gaze remains on him; I do not dare blink in case tears dare escape me.It hurts; it shouldn’t hurt to hear these words from him, but Christ, it feels as if my heart has imploded in my chest.It must be my hormones making me feel this way; it must be otherwise…otherwise…Christ, it's almost as though I believed him when he said he cared. I didn’t, but it’s almost as if I did."Elaine will spend the week…”Christ, he is still talking about Elaine.His mouth still calls her name as if… “…Sunday for school, where she will stay until her official graduation. I won't sleep with her, Ruby. Just trust me."He continues but, I am not sure what I have missed, I am uncertain of what he has uttered beyond his threats and…I do not want to take in more of what he wants to say in case he takes them back later."And..."A sigh escapes me, I hate its tremble.I am a
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-One: Risqué
Ruby M CliveLadders don't look that scary unless you are coming down from them at night, and while they are wet from the light drizzle the cold night holds.The Beta's hands on my waist as he helps me off the ladder safely feel large."What do you know about second chance mates?"He questions before I can even take a step past him."Shh! Keep your voice down; I'll tell you in the car.""You will tell me right now.""Or what? We are not enemies here, Beta. Help me; I will answer you, albeit condescendingly—I am in a sour mood, from the privacy of your vehicle."His scoff follows; I did not know the beta had a mean streak—I like it.It would be even better if he screws as meanly.I miss sex.I miss sex with a furious Alpha whose only thoughts are of me, but if we fuck now, the name out of his lips will not be mine. Hell, it may never be mine again.This is quite possibly it for us.I wish I weren’t scared of penetration. I wish our last sex before Elaine had been more than oral, more t
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Two: I Wouldn't
Adrian M Knox "Muaas." Elaine drawled his name as if it offered her life. Each time she purred his name, she took a step toward him. In his head, he took an equal one back, but...in reality, he hadn't moved. "Don't." He meant the words as a command, but again, they failed him. "Muaas...please, I'm burning..." The blood rushing in his veins turned furious; even his heart felt as if it would leap out of him. Her scent burned his skin, and the veins on his temple hummed. He wanted to pounce on her. But he couldn’t. He would- Before the promise even formed in his mind, his hand reached for her; it was pure instinct, one she did not resist—not that he would let her resist him. Christ, she was cold to the touch, just the temperature his skin craved. But, If holding her felt this good, what about tasting her? What would she taste like? Grapes? Chocolate? Roses? He did not much care for flowers, but he loved the scent of roses in the crisp winter because that was what the training
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Author's note
Hi, my apologies for going back on my word so fast, but an emergency has made it impossible for updates to the main story for the next few days; please bear with me, I will be back from the 1st of next month with hopefully double chapters daily since my schedule is beginning to open up.

I apologise again for any inconvenience and for halting at such a place in the story. -Undercover Ostrich.
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Bonus #2: Valedictorian
Hello! So, unfortunately, there wasn’t enough hype for the bonus, perhaps a poor theme choice (?), so I’ll wrap them up in one or two more chapters. Quick disclaimer: This chapter contains Dubious Consent and Threat to S. Assault. The regular chapters resume tomorrow. As always, thank you for reading! ** The VIP room was clean, to his standard, and as per his instruction, his new business partner left. The partner who left was an old classmate, and the only reason they were now partners was that he introduced him to where she was. If not for the club-no, if not for Ruby, he would not have accepted the business proposal. And by clean, he meant that it didn't reek of tobacco like the rest of the club, a club he shouldn't even be in, but again, Ruby. She was a nobody who came from nowhere and took his seat at the university, took every leading grade in the courses they shared from under his nose, and vanished before he ever had the chance to bring her to his knees. The door to h
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Three: For Me
Adrian M Knox‘I wouldn't?’What was that supposed to mean?'I wouldn't?'Adrian toyed with the words again; they made little sense, considering his Beta’s words earlier."You said before that I should visit the room before ‘it's too late’, and then now you say, ‘I wouldn’t’? Are you testing me?""No."His beta responded before stepping aside.Again, Leon offered contradictory body language.With a tired sigh, he turned to the door; no sooner had his arm reached for the handle than the door flew open, and the queen stepped out. Her eyes were puffy and wet, while her nose remained an irritated shade of pink, perhaps from the constant sniffing she seemed to do. She looked dishevelled.Her golden eyes raised to his before she visibly stilled. "Alpha."Her call was not a greeting; she was angry. He couldn't place why, but his legs moved towards the room she exited."A little privacy, Alpha!"The Queen insisted as her hand flew across the door, keeping him from pushing it open.“Is she i
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Four: Repercussions
Adrian M KnoxShe was mocking him, but she had every right to, given the circumstances."Ruby, are you okay?"He asked, trying his best to keep the topic on the matter at hand."Am I okay?"She repeated in a whisper before again scoffing at his words.He wanted to howl and express something, but…he felt nothing but the urge to run to Elaine’s room. Even he knew something was wrong with how the mating system worked, but…what was he supposed to do?"I don't want any more visitors, Alba.""Ruby, are you-""Am I okay? That’s what you want to ask me after I lost a baby, a baby you said you wanted, you said you—ah… fuck, why am I so stupid? I should never have believed you; I should have gone through with the abor- mmmn.."She sealed her lips to keep more words from leaving her mouth before closing her eyes and shaking her head from side to side.Her outburst was short, too short.Her inhale was quick before again her eyes opened, and she turned to look at him once more, but there was an of
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Five: A Crueller Fate
"Okay, let’s go over this one last time, just to be sure. We are going after an Alpha; there is no room for mistakes.”Violet utters through my tablet.Again, I increased the volume on the device as if it could rid me of my present anxiety.I am about to drug and mark my husband, not to mention my advances will most definitely be unwanted, so there is that. I am about to commit a crime in the name of revenge; why shouldn’t I be nervous?“Focus, Ruby.”I nod after a sharp inhale floods my lungs.“Okay.”“So, you start with the needle with greenish liquid; it doesn’t matter if it’s within the veins, skin or muscle. It will work all the same; the only issue is the half-life. My advice is to try and aim for a vein. It will be expelled faster.”“Like I said, I won't have time to look for a vein.”I argue back. My insistence had been on drugging his food, but Alba was against that, so we had to switch tactics.“Food would be-”“Food takes longer to expel, and if you don’t want to be fucked

The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Author's Note
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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Bonus #6: The Play
** 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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Bonus #5: Annoying
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 Alpha's Ruby Obsession Bonus #4: Amicably
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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Bonus #3: Owned
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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter One-Four-Zero: Last Time
“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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter One-Three-Nine: Irrevocably.
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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter One-Three-Eight: Fun
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
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter One-Three-Seven: Come Morning
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
