All Chapters of Alpha Rylan: Claiming My Enemy: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Maya’s POVI tried so hard to move on from the incident. It wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. I should be used to it by now, but the thought of Rylan orchestrating the whole scheme brought tears to my eyes. He had always bullied me, always hurt me. And for what? Pouring water on him? That was enough for him to hire men to assault me? How heartless could he be?My shoulders slumped as I walked to the bench where Moxie sat. “Hi,” I said, forcing a smile as I sat beside her. She didn’t even look at me. Her fingers repeatedly dialed a number, her hazel eyes shimmering with unshed tears.“What’s wrong, Moxie?” I asked, draping an arm around her shoulders. She jolted, startled by my touch. “What happened? Who are you trying to call so desperately?” I pressed, my concern growing.She wiped her tears and put her phone away before facing me. “I don’t deserve to be called your friend, Maya,” she said, tears now streaming freely. Her hands trembled as she spoke.“What are y

Maya's POV “You never cared to know, Mom. Why are you suddenly interested?” I asked, my voice breaking. “Whenever I tried talking to you about my problems, you never gave me a listening ear. You left me to handle my problems alone and forced your orders on me without caring about how I felt. Don’t try to act concerned now. Just focus on taking care of Annabel; she’s all you ever cared about,” I poured out, tears filling my eyes.“What are you talking about, sweetheart?” she asked softly, cupping my face with one hand. “Of course, I care about you. You’re my first child, so why would you think I care about your sister more than I care about you? I’m your mother. I will always listen to you, and I’m sorry if I failed you in that aspect. Why do you take those medications?”I sniffed, wiping my tears. “I was depressed, Mom. Mr. Dante…” I paused, watching my mother’s eyes narrow at me. “Never mind. You won’t believe me anyway,” I declared, storming into the bathroom.“Come on, sweetheart.

Rylan’s POV“What if you’re lying again?” I said, turning away from her and picking up my phone from the bed.“I’m your sister. You should believe me!” Her tone was filled with disappointment.“I did once, but you broke that trust. I hate lies, Tiffany. You know that.”“You’re not even calling me Tiffster anymore! What has that slut done to you?” she cried, storming out of my room. I shook my head and followed her out.“Today is your birthday,” Uncle Dawson said the moment I reached the garage. He was standing with Beta Beckett.“So?” I tilted my head.“Where are you going? The guests will start arriving soon.”“I didn’t invite anyone, so why would my presence matter to them? They’re your guests. Take care of them,” I said, opening my car door.“Today is the end of the ultimatum, Alpha,” Beta Beckett added, drawing a glare from me. “If you don’t sense your mate, you’ll have no choice but to choose a random Luna.”“I know,” I replied sharply. “The day isn’t over yet, so don’t bother me

Rylan’s POV“Maya!” I called out in panic, trying to hold her. “Open your eyes, Maya. Listen to me. I’m right here.”She clutched the blanket, her sweat-soaked dress clinging to her as tears streamed down her cheeks. The scene felt foreign to me; I had never seen anyone hallucinate before.“Let me go, please,” she sobbed, curling up on her side. “Mom… please help me, Mom. I don’t want this.”Her whimper felt like a sharp knife cutting through my heart. I didn’t know what had happened to her to cause such pain, but the sight was unbearable.“Do something!” Ryker yelled, snapping me out of my trance.“I hate you… so much,” she muttered, her breathing uneven.“Maya?” I pulled her up, and her eyes fluttered open. “What just happened to you? Who were you arguing with?”“I’m tired, Rylan,” she whispered, wiping her tears. “I need some rest. Is that too much to ask for?”“I won’t ask any more questions. Just relax, okay?” I said. She lay back on the blanket, facing me.I joined her, staring

Rylan's POVI woke up to someone planting kisses on my face. “Hey, stop that,” I grunted, wiping my face before opening my eyes and seeing Maya frowning at me. I sat up abruptly.“That’s not what I mean, I didn’t…” I tried to apologize.“Save it,” she said, raising her hand and moving to the edge of the bed to put on her shoes.“Hey,” I moved closer to her, kissing her shoulder. She flinched. “I’m sorry, okay? I almost forgot I was still with you,” I said apologetically.She looked over her shoulder. “Who did you think you were with, then?” she retorted sharply.“No one,” I whispered, and she looked away.“You think you slept with a slut last night, so you didn’t want her taking it personally, right?” she said, standing and facing me.“You’re putting words in my mouth, Maya,” I said, sitting on the edge of the bed. “Can we not fight this morning, please? For pity’s sake, we just had our first night together. Why are you finding fault already? I’m not used to sleeping with people, and
