All Chapters of Running Away: Pregnant For My Contractual Alpha: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Michael’s POV“Leave us!” Alpha Andrew added, “Everyone outside, except the royal family and Michael…”Murmurs filled the hall, but no one dared disregard the words of the alpha. Soon all the council elders and guards filed out of the hall leaving just the people he had requested.I was still on the ground, not for respect or anything but for good measure and fake loyalties. Now that Ella was gone, the best thing I could move to the next stage by making use of the opportunity. I was going to break the brother’s bond.It wasn’t even strong to begin with. Anyone who cared to look closely enough could see that there were a lot of empty spaces between them. David was power hungry just like me, but he lacked my brains and my looks.Andrew was too good to be a king and he got easily manipulated and this was how he got mixed in my father’s murder. Technically he wasn’t to be blamed but I blamed him still. He was the alpha, he was the leader, and he should have known when to give up. The thr

Ella's POV"Are you sure about this?" Esther asked me for the umpteenth time as we prepared to leave.I stared at our reflection through the large mirror in the room and I shrugged my shoulders."I don't know... I just want to get this over with," I whispered, and then as if the piece of information had escaped my mind before my brows raised and I turned to face her directly."Besides, this was your idea. If I get killed my soul will haunt you," I added playfully."It wasn't my idea per se. All I did was to suggest it. You accepted!" She retorted with a small smile on her face.I only shook my head at her comeback. Then I proceeded to the door."It doesn't matter anymore, we are already going," I murmured.Esther suddenly grabbed my upper arms and I was forced to stop walking as I turned to look at her."That's where you get it wrong... It matters. If you don't want this, then we can just abort the mission." She whispered and for the first time, I saw the seriousness in her eyes.I cl

Ella's POVSaying that I regretted coming to Ryker was an understatement. I never thought for once that he would not believe me.Hearing him ask those questions tore me down to the last shred.I realized yet again that I was very stupid for thinking that he would take me with open arms or at least offer something that could be worth it.And now to make it worse Willow was back.Ryker and I turned to the door with wide eyes, wondering if the sound of her voice had just been in my head but there she was with a large fake smile on her face.My heart started beating fast.This was not in my plan. I hoped I would get a sort of agreement with Ryker before Willow returned home.Now everything was back to ground zero."Baby!" She exclaimed as she waltzed into the room and wrapped her arms around Ryker not even caring that we were standing just a few feet apart."I missed you so much, baby!" She wined plastering hundreds of kisses on Ryker's face.But when she broke away from him, her cold blu

Michael’s POV"Selena, we can still talk about this... Please my love—""Guards!" She yelled, cutting off my words and that was when I knew it was over.Her eyes glared at me with such fire I knew there was no turning back. I was doomed. My plans were ruined."Selena please, my love don't do this!" I tried to plead with her for the last time but she refused to listen to me.She started screaming for the guards and I knew that staying there was going to do more harm than good. The last thing I needed was for Andrew to find me there, he would definitely doubt my intentions.Quickly, I slipped out of her room before the guards arrived and I hid in the next room.As Selena screamed at them to find me and keep me away from her, I glued myself to the wall and squeezed my eyes shut.This was bad. This was very bad and I had to think of a new plan as soon as possible.I waited for the guards to move away and as soon as they did, moved out of the room I was hidden in and returned to my room w

Michael's POVEverything was finally making sense to me. Now I got why David always supported Selena, even when it was crystal clear that she was wrong.I also understand why Selena was nothing like Andrew or what people said the Luna had been like...My head started spinning as I began calculating how I could use this information against them or for my own benefit.But first, I had to get away from there before they saw me. I had to catch them unaware.Quickly, I slipped out of the room as silently as I had come and returned to my room.There were two things I heard from their conversation that were very important to me.The first was that Selena was David's daughter; the second was that Ella was at Willow's pack and if I wanted to maintain my plan, I had to get to her before Selena and her friend decided to kill her.That was the first and direct plan. The second would be to find proof that showed that Selena was truly David's daughter and who Ella was...Sleep slowly took over me b
