All Chapters of Betrayed By Her Mate, Claimed By The Alpha: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Ariana’s POVThere’s was a gnawing desperation that seized me when we neared the top of the hill.Avoiding the monsters became harder. In total, there were eight of them, and even those that fell, kept standing, running after us. I knew if this kept up I’d be out of breath soon but I knew this wasn’t the time to give up.As we reached the steepest slope, something grabbed my foot, pulling me down, harshly. I screamed, turning, seeing I’d been grabbed my one of the monsters.I kicked furiously, fear gripping my entire body.If I went back down this hill I’d be mauled, instantly.Someone held my hand, kicking the monster on the skull. The sound of his skull cracking froze me. The monster fell to the ground, tumbling down and I knew it was dead. On seeing their dead comrade, the monsters slowed down before stopping, hesitating.I turned, seeing Damon, his rubies illuminating a golden hue.It reminded of the day Jasper and I went looking for Lorna, something that totally escaped my mind.

Damon’s POVEverything changed as soon as I watched that monster grab her by the foot. Immediately I saw them by the hill I knew who their creator was and who exactly sent them. There was no mistaking the hunger in their eyes as they went after us, the soulless enmity that consumed them, beasts of darkness.He had truly gone mad. I knew that if I wanted her to make it to the finish line alive, I had to leave her side, at least for a while. The panic that consumed me once I thought that I had failed to protect her was enough to want me to send this whole place to the ground.After I departed from her I went back to the hill, standing at the top, watching the monsters who were feeding on their dead sibling, become alert, chasing after me.One hand in my pocket, I raised the other, building an invincible barrier. Two of them tried crossing the barrier, instantly bursting, their blood and scattered organs painting the transparent wall, reversing its invincibility. The remaining five pause

Ariana’s POVThe sun was setting gradually and I realized tomorrow could be the finale and we had just gone two days yet it felt more than that with all the things that transpired within that time frame.Even if I did want this to be over, a part of me thought about the endless possibilities that came with it all ending.Neither of us knew of Chief Fenrir’s capabilities or and weaknesses and even though Jasper had deceived me then, I pondered on if what he mentioned about Fenrir’s powers were another lie too or if he had added that truth to back up his treacherous lies.“You think a lot, princess.” Damon’s voice spoke, echoing within me.Even while he was within me, his baritone still rumbled, startling me especially now when I could hear all of him.“I love it when your heartbeat races when I speak to you, at least I know the feeling is not unrequited.”“What… what are you even saying?” I could hear the fast heartbeat of my chest but I wouldn’t admit that. How could I?He chuckled, a

Ariana’s POVThroughout my entire twenty-one years of living, I’d experienced a lot of things that should’ve sent me into full rage then but didn’t, instead I either ignored them or worked 'against' it.Example, when I found out and saw with my own two eyes on my birthday my own mate cheating on me. When I found out I locked myself up and came back ‘stronger’ the very next day, helping him find his partner and child.I didn’t live through my pain, rather I didn’t let it wash all over me under the rain of my sorrows. Instead I took an umbrella and shielded myself.Another example; the day the twins dislocated both my shoulders in a fight. That was my first real fight and it was meant to be a test battle, to give the opponents an opportunity to find out their cores and strengths. Those two took it far and dislocated both my shoulders at the same time. What did I do?I got it glued back to my arm that day and began training the very next day. I still remember what I thought then,“I have

Ariana’s POVThey all cheered, sounds of people clapping, organized chaos and bright light making me wrinkle my forehead.Right in the middle of the crowd, I saw a small girl, not above the age of twelve, cheering loudly, her face red from so much excitement.I focused my attention on the person next to her. He was the guard I met the day Jasper and I went looking for Lorna.He smiled warmly at me, clapping his hands. I smiled, shifting my gaze back at the little girl beside him. She must be the daughter he spoke about as they did look alike. I gave my brightest smile, blowing her a kiss.She screamed turning to her father as she tugged on his shirt endlessly. He laughed, hugging her, muttering a “thank you” to me while he bowed his head curtly.Seeing such vast amount of people in a enclosed space made me confused and a little frightened. It took me a moment to adjust, blinking rapidly, an ensuing headache coming forth.After a while I tried to shut out the noise, my injuries finally
