All Chapters of Alpha's Redemption-Countdown To 90 Days: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

KALILA’S POV “Oh no! Get that diary away from her!” Nova exclaimed with panic in her voice. I still couldn’t believe my eyes, I was so scared and everything in me was trembling. Wendy probably knew everything by now, about Dahlia, about me. She might even know that my name was actually Kalila! I was freaking out but I was too shocked to even do anything. “Don’t just stand there like a goof, go and take it away from her, Kalila!” Nova bellowed in my ears and suddenly jolted me out of my frightened thoughts. I cleared my head, took a deep breath and walked over to her. She heard my footsteps and raised her head, she was quite startled but didn’t bother hiding the diary. “What the fuck are you doing with that?” I asked in a stern voice. “And why are you even in this room?” She shrugged, “It’s Ares’s, isn’t it?” “It’s both Ares’s and mine, hand over the diary, now.” I said, stretching out my hand. She regarded me silently for a long, uncomfortable moment. I was so tensed

ARES’S POV I had no idea what my uncle was saying or why he was saying it, but nothing was going to make me believe that Dahlia was the one who had tried to poison me. No way, that was just absurd thinking from my uncle! “He's got to be kidding me, that’s the lamest thing I’ve heard in a while.” Leo remarked and I couldn’t agree more with him. Although I didn’t react how I felt, something was off with my uncle. I could just feel it, maybe he wasn’t in the right state of mind and the person he kept seeing in his head was Dahlia. Or maybe it was a dream, maybe he had dreamt about Dahlia and interpreted it as her being the culprit. Whatever it was, I wasn’t going to believe him so easily, no way. “Oh common, uncle. What are you saying? Dahlia?” I asked with a bewildered look on my face. “Of course, everyone can be a suspect, can’t they? But you haven’t gotten closer to the truth because you haven’t included your so called Luna on the list.” He replied, dragging on his cigar

KALILA’S POV While I sat on the bed in the evening thinking, I noticed something very disturbing. Ares was staring at me in a very suspicious manner and it got me wondering if I was a suspect to him. How could he even think of such a thing? I was the one who had saved his life after all. As I was about to ask him why he stared at me like that, he suddenly said, “Dahlia, come over here. We need to talk.” His voice wasn’t friendly at all. I obediently got up from the bed and walked over to his desk. I sat down on a chair and he rose and sat on the table right in front of me. “What’s the matter?” I asked. “I feel like I’m being interrogated.” “You are.” He replied with all seriousness. “I want you to be completely honest with me now, answer all my questions the way it happened.” He waited to see if I had something to say, I didn’t and he continued. “How did you find out that my drink was poisoned?” “Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?” I asked accusingly. “The

ARES' POV Something in me just didn’t want Wendy around on this particular night, it wasn’t Leo’s voice, if it was, I’d have ignored it. It was a feeling, rather than a voice in me. A feeling that was in anticipation of something, I had long learnt to trust my instincts and feelings especially when it came out of no where. I was also satisfied with the way I had spoken to Wendy, she needed to know her place here. Her father had asked for a hefty loan from me, I was right about what I said earlier. There was no other pack I could give such an amount to, it was only because of the good relationship between her father and I. A part of me felt like they were beginning to abuse the privileges I had given them. Wendy for one had overstayed her welcome here, even Jeremy had asked when he came to my office earlier. “Ares, why is she still here?” He asked.I pretended not to know who he was talking about, “Who are you referring to?” He rolled his eyes, “Obviously the only person who doesn’

KALILA’S POV I was so worried and tensed when Ares dropped to the floor. For a second I thought he was having a terrible heart attack, the way he had suddenly fell to the floor shook my nerves greatly. Was it me? Was I the cause of what was happening to him? There was no one else in the mansion that could help me, did it have to be now? When no one else was around? I paced up and down after wrapping a robe around myself, my heart was racing with fear. “Calm down, Kalila. You need to ease your mind.” Nova said. “What do you mean? He might be dead or something. I’m so frightened right now, what if he’s actually dead? What about my quest?” I exclaimed. “You’re not thinking straight.” Nova said and I couldn’t disagree, I wasn’t. “Look at him, he’s breathing, he’s fine. Help him up to the bed first.” I looked at Ares’s magnificent figure lying limply on the ground, how in the world was I supposed to lift him? I didn’t have such capacity. I tried to lift him up by his shoulders, bu
