All Chapters of DEMON ALPHA'S MATE: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Ariana's POVI retracted my hand which was just about to insert the key and it fell limply to my hip. I groaned internally at the thought of seeing Alpha Derek again. There was something about his gaze that unsettled me and made me feel as if he was seeing into the depths of my soul. I could just be imagining it but still, I did not want to see the no smiling Alpha again that day. I had no choice, though. I just had to go.I stepped back from my door and walked the short distance to his own door. While there I waited and admired the main door of the Alpha's quarters. The door in front of me was beautiful but it was not as grand neither was it as elegant of the door of the Alpha's office. The office was his main domain, the domain of power from where he ruled over his subjects, made laws, rules and regulations, administered justice and meted out punishments to those thar erred him or others unlawfully. That was why the office had been designed like that. It had to reflect power, theref

Ariana's POVI was surprised as I looked at the face of the person who had called out my name. I blinked and blinked my eyes in shock as I beheld the face of Diana. I was too shocked to speak because I was wondering what she was doing here, in the hallway of the Alpha's quarters of all places. I was certain that she had either come to visit me or the Alpha but my money was on the Alpha. She didn't know where I stayed in the pack house but she knew where the Alpha's quarters was situated.Suddenly I felt a hand on my arm. Diana was tapping me gently to shake me out of my reverie and talking. "Ariana, Ariana," she called out. "What is wrong?"Suddenly I was aware of my surroundings. Diana had succeeded in drawing me out of my thoughts. I looked at her and took in her outfit. Surprisingly, she was wearing a flowing summer dress just like mine but the only difference was that hers was red instead of yellow. On closer inspection, I saw that her own dress was a bit longer than mine but it w

Ariana's POVAs soon as Claire asked her question, the other girls' eyes started to roam about us. Emily was looking at us with a look of adoration while Sophie was gazing at us with puzzlement across her face. Charlotte on her own just looked at us with no hint of an emotion displayed on her face while Claire on the other hand was staring at us so hard with suspicion marring her features."So you guys are just noticing our dresses now?" Diana asked with a broad smile on her face, trying to diffuse the tension that blanketed us like a thick cloud.As I looked around, other people from the tables near ours were staring too, and they were not making any effort to hide the fact. Clearly, they wanted to know why the most popular clique were standing around instead of going out and why two out of them were putting on the same clothes, albeit ones with different colors."It's not only the dresses that are the same. Look at the boots too. The only difference is in the color and the length. D

Ariana's POVAs the head guard spoke those words and left the dining hall as fast as he had come in, the voices that had quieted before when he stepped into the dining room resumed and people started speaking with urgency in their tones. Everyone was trying to talk at the same time because of the urgency of the situation. They contemplated the situation at hand and wondered who the person that had been unfortunate enough to get sentenced to a public whipping after more than a year's respite was. What had the person done? they wondered. Who was the unfortunate person even? they asked themselves but they didn't get an answer because there was no person in the dining hall presently who was privy to such information, or so they thought.I on my own part was still seating with my friends on our regular table when I had the news from the head guard. I tried to control my reaction, gasping in shock just like the rest of my friends. As I looked at their bewildered faces, my face mirrored the

Ariana's POVIt was the day after the public whipping and I was emotionally drained after witnessing what the head guard, Reece did to Colin and how he was after everything. Colin's back had looked like a slab of raw meat that had been stabbed over and over again. The silver whip that had been used on him left long red marks on his angry and battered skin that I doubted whether the skin on his back would ever heal completely. The whole skin on his back had been molested and even if I didn't like him, I still pitied him. Hell, I pitied how he had looked after the whole ordeal. He hadn't even been unconscious, and my guess was that they had carried him to the pack's infirmary to treat him in his poor state but I couldn't be too sure because I didn't now how they did things in this place. Hell, I had never even witnessed a public whipping before now. My uncle, Mr. White, the Alpha of Blue Moon Pack had been callous and heartless but not to the extent of organizing a public whipping for
