All Chapters of Running Away: Pregnant For My Contractual Alpha: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Ryker’s POV“David had switched her with his own daughter hoping that the power could easily trickle down to his blood instead… He hoped that my mother would have killed Ella, but mother thought in her twisted mind… that Ella was a curse and the reason for her bad luck, so she didn’t kill her. She let her live so she could be our slave…” Anna continued narrating.Tears were trickling down her cheeks as she spoke, but she didn’t stop, rather she went down on her knees and joined her hands together with remorse mixing with her sobs.“I know that my mother was evil but please do not hand me over to David… he would have me killed in the worst way possible… please,” she whimpered. “I will do anything. I will even be a slave to clean your path… anything at all but please don’t send me away…”Her story was plausible enough and there wasn’t a reason for me to send her away but there was something I was more concerned with.“What does Alpha Andrew know about this story?” I asked her.She quick

Ella’s POVMy heart was determined and as Esther cleaned my tears off my face, I made up my mind. I would avenge my baby and my mother. I would let their pain be in vain. I would cause the same pain they caused me to them.Esther managed to control my emotions and I even lessened my anger. “I should call Alpha Ryker and Anna; they are very worried about you…” she whispered but I turned away from her face and preferred to keep my gaze at the window.Esther let out a sigh and sat on my bed. “Ella, I know you have been hurt. I have seen it happen.” She took hold of my hand and squeezed it gently.“I don’t want to talk to them…” I whispered. They had brought this pain upon me. They contributed one way or the other.They had purposely abandoned me. Ryker had even refused to believe the child was his and he dared to claim he felt my pain. “They should go away; I don’t want to see them…” I whispered curling myself into a ball.Esther tried a few more times but, in the end, she let me be. I

Ryker’s POV“How is she?” I asked Anna the moment she stepped out of the room, and she nodded at me with a smile on her face.“Oh, she is fine now. She just needs rest, and everything will be back to normal.”As much as I wanted to believe that I knew it couldn’t be true. Ella would only be fine after the people that put her in this condition get to pay with their lives and I was going to make sure of that.“Do you want to talk to her now?” Anna’s voice sliced through my thoughts, and I paused them to stare at her.“Huh?”She placed the tray she was holding on the table and picked a sofa close to me. “My lord, Ella has been awake for a few days now… I understand that she didn’t want to see either of us, but I saw her, and we made up. You should talk to her too.”“No, I don’t think that is important. She is already going through a lot of traumas. It won’t do her a lot of good if I added to the list.” My reply was mostly due to my guilt. I had failed her in every way a mate failed their

Ryker’s POV “Patrick, wait behind,” I said as the council members got on their feet and started filling out of the conference room. Each came to where I stood, bowed, and joined the file to exit the room. When they were all out, the guards closed the doors, giving Patrick and me the privacy we needed. “I thought you were already in Crystal Pack?” I asked him as silence filled the room. “I was leaving when the council leader called me, but I have news that might come very useful to us,” he said. Ever since I sent him to pick up Ella, he had grown such an attachment to her and just like me, he had readily taken the problem upon himself to bring her justice. “The town is preparing for another mating ceremony…” “Another one? Aren’t they supposed to be mourning, Ella?” I growled as a cloud of confusion laid itself above me. I thought if anyone was going to have sympathy then it had to be the Alpha, who happened to also be a victim in this mess. Yet, he was allowing a party when his

Michael’s POV“You look hot, man!” Jason praised me as I appeared from the bathroom with my bow tie perfectly placed on my shirt. “The smartest man in all of Crystal Pack! Today is the day, man. How do you feel?”His words caused a small grin of pride to break on my face, and my blood curdled in satisfaction. My organs were all excited and my cock was not left out. This happened every time I tasted victory. The feel of the air tickled and caressed my skin bringing forth the taste of my trophy.“I feel like the alpha already… a very horny alpha…” “Awesome man!” Jason cackled. Poor thing probably thought I was joking but I was too serious.I grabbed my coat and started heading out of the door. “I am going to Selena’s room. Give the door a hard knock if the proceedings get urgent,” I said. I heard him say something about waiting the night, but a smirk covered my face. What was the point of waiting when I could have it all now?In no time I got to Selena’s room. I knocked once and invit
