All Chapters of Running Away: Pregnant For My Contractual Alpha: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Ryker’s POVMy vision turned dark and my patience broke. Before I could stop myself, I grabbed Helen by her windpipe and slapped her body to the wall like she was an ordinary piece of paper.“Is that what made you call me to come here?” I hissed to her face, my claws emerging from their dormant beds. “How dare you?” My wolf was close to tearing through my body as I bared my teeth at her.She opened her mouth to try and make an excuse, but I didn’t give her the chance to open her lips. I clamped down on it with my free hand, even harder. I enjoyed the feel of my claws as they broke through her skin.“Do I look like a fool to you?” A bead of red blood formed around the side of her mouth where my claws were getting buried. She tried shaking her head, but no sound even managed to escape her cracked lips. I watched her fear-filled eyes and the thrill of the damage I was causing her, eased my frustration.“Alpha Ryker please, stop!” Anna, her daughter screamed from the door.She ran to wher

Ella’s POVIt had been days since the pharmacist had exposed my secret to the whole class and nothing bad had happened. I knew this was partly because Selena wasn’t back yet. I was hoping my classmates wouldn’t spread the news and this way, Selena’s pawns wouldn’t get to know about it either.My already low profile grew even lower both in college and in the royal house because the last thing I wanted was for someone to call home and tell them about my condition.My heart was constantly beating, and panic was my new companion. It was like I was carrying a ticking time bomb that could go off at any second.“Hey…”My thoughts abruptly stopped, and I turned to stare at my partner who seemed to have been nudging me for a while now.“Are you okay?” she asked as she picked up her bag and got off the chair to pack her books.My eyes followed her movements from her hands and back to her face, completely ignorant of what she meant. “Yeah, I am fine. Where are you going?”She paused and stared a

Ella’s POVI wished the ground could open and it would just swallow me whole. My heart was ramming so hard in my chest it was only a matter of time very it exploded.My eyes turned to Selena. I was silently begging her to stop whatever she had planned. I was going to be homeless and not just that Willow was going to kill me, and I wasn’t ready to die.Selena caught my stares and an evil smile played on her lips as she already anticipated the joy of the pain she was going to bring to me. This was probably all a game to her. A point she had to make to make me realize that she was going to win this battle she started.But adding Willow to the game meant death to me.“What do you mean by that?” David asked her. “Can’t you see the way she looks? We need to call the doctors to check what is wrong.” He insisted.Tears of panic where already running down my face and I saw my end looking over at me. “Selena…” I whispered, as a desperate act to make her to change her mind and stop this train wre

Ella’s POV“What?” I whispered with shock dripping all over my pores.“I mean it, Ella. I love you and I will do anything for you… even if it means taking responsibility for your child…”“But I-”“You don’t have to love me back… at least not now. Just let me take care of you and the baby. We can tell your uncle that we want to wait till after the baby is born so that we can have our mating ceremony.”His hands were on mine and his eyes searched my face for an answer. I knew that he was waiting for me to speak, but I couldn’t even move my mouth. This was too much for me to take in all at once.“Except you want… you want something else…” Michael mumbled dropping his head to the ground. “Is he your mate?” He asked and I understood what he meant.Of course, Ryker was my mate, but he didn’t belong to me. He belonged to Willow, and he didn’t even want the baby. He had made that very clear from the beginning. Wanting to return to him was never the action because the moment I stepped out of

Ella’s POVA sharp knock on the door saved me from answering the question and the growing storm in my heart reduced to a wavering breeze as Aunt Emily let out a sigh and got on her feet.“The dressmaker is here,” she said and went to the door.As she left, I released my breath and tried to calm my heart. I quickly grabbed the glass of milk and gulped it down like it was a cold refreshing glass of water.“Oh, my dear, I didn’t know you were a designer…” I heard Aunt Emily say as she returned from the door and the whizz of a very familiar scent filled the room, causing the hair at the back of my neck to stand erect in alarm.“Yes Aunt, I studied Fashion design and creation here at Crystal College. I was one of their star students,” the voice echoed, and my intestines curled.My wolf jumped to the surface, and I felt panic surge through me as I raised my head and my eyes met with the speaker.“Everyone called me, Willow the Great.” She appeared behind Aunt Emily, and blood drained from m
