All Chapters of Alpha Clinton: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

RUBY. Kiara stood before me carrying two large fancy bags filled with clothes and other things I could not identify.I closed my mouth, then parted it and shut it back.She softly giggled. “Here, I was supposed to deliver them to you last night, but you were sleeping, and I didn't want to disturb you.”I smiled at her, then nodded, looking down at the bags she was carrying before lifting my gaze to hold hers.“All these are for me?” I said in disbelief, stepping aside to let her in and then shutting the door behind her.Kiara walked to the bed, dropped the bags on it, then sat down and smiled at me.“Yes, because they can't exactly fit me, and the only person with the right size is you.”I smiled. “Thank you. But you didn't really have to. You could have just lent me some clothes to wear rather than wasting money on so many clothes, money that could have been spent on something else.”Kiara swatted my words playfully, then shrugged. “It's not a big deal, actually. I like to render he

CLINTON.After leaving Ruby in my penthouse, I called Kiara and ordered her not to reveal too much to Ruby if she asked about me, especially the part about having a mate or a girlfriend.Then I returned to the pack house and issued a stern warning to all the pack members via the pack mind-link not to disturb me for any reason, as I was busy with work. Then, I went straight to my chambers.I locked the door behind me and paced around my room. Ruby's face flashed back in my mind and I groaned in frustration. I had fucked up twice just the first day I got to have a conversation with her; now she'd think I was an asshole.Biting down a growl, I marched towards my bed, fell on it, and sighed. I needed to fix this if I wanted her to trust me or even like me at this point.The pain that had passed through her eyes was unmistakable, and I felt hurt that I was the cause of it. Whatever made her leave her pack that day must have broken something in her, making her think I said she was homeless.

CLINTON.I didn't know what to say, and I just can't deny her...Kai growled in my head, and I sighed. If I want her to agree to us breaking the oath, then telling her that I had a mate would be mean... really mean.“There's no way you will deny our mate!” Kai roared. Like really roared.“I have to, unless you don't want things to get easier for us,” I told him. He must have realized how right I was because he retreated at the back of my mind, still shaking with anger.“No, I did not find my mate.” Her eyes narrowed into slits. I continued, “I only wanted the best for you. We've been together for years now, and I think us taking a break from one another would be the best—”“And?” She interrupted with a snort.“—for now. We need to figure out what we actually want. I don't want you to regret anything; that's why I'm suggesting a break.”Damn. Did things really have to be like this?Like a flash of lightning, Kiara closed the distance between us, her lower lip between her teeth as she p

RUBY. I woke up with a smile. Memories of the Alpha King's kisses made me feel a warm glow in my heart. I had resisted him at first, but then he bit my lower lip, using the opportunity to put his tongue in my mouth. That was my first kiss, and he stole it without knowing.I cleaned up my room and did my morning duties, which included having a bath and brushing my teeth. Then, I went down for breakfast.Kiara was chatty as usual. She told me stories about her childhood; most were very funny, but some were quite touching. However, she never asked me about mine. I felt guilty that she was opening up to me while I was still keeping things from her. I knew it would probably make the Alpha King throw me out of his pack because I'm a Lycan.That was the last thing I wanted to happen before I brought Alpha Frederick's murderer down. But before that, I needed to start formulating a plan on how to begin.I spent the rest of the day reading in my room. I had picked up a book written by one of m

CLINTON. On the bed lay Seraphina, her hands starting to touch her body once our eyes met. She spread out her legs, trailing a finger along her thigh as she purred softly. Her once long rose-blonde hair was now styled in a pixie cut, and I couldn't deny it looked better on her. I blinked and met her gaze again, refusing to look down at her naked body. Kai growled at the pathetic way she was trying to seduce me. Once, I would have been tempted and given in to her, but it held no meaning to me now. She had been attractive to me before my mate's arrival, but now I found nothing appealing in her. My loyalty and desire belonged entirely to my mate. Her attempts to lure me were futile and only filled me with a sense of pity and irritation. Kai's growl intensified, mirroring my own inner turmoil and reinforcing my resolve. “Seraphina, what's the meaning of this?” I asked, my anger rising. “How's my new look?” She deliberately ignored me. “I thought maybe changing something about myself mi
