Accidental Claim 29 Stupid Ruby
Ruby I woke up early in the morning feeling a bit down. It was the day of the joining. I hated that I would not have a gift for Racheal more than the fact that I would be wearing my old clothes. For the first time, I felt like sneaking to my father's house and getting a dress from my old room. I looked at Jasper; he was still sleeping. I was desperate. None of the clothes Racheal sent was good enough for the event. I dreaded being laughed at. So I snuck out of the apartment, entered my car and headed towards the town. The worst that would happen was that my father or the pack members would see me and kill me. At this point, I did not care. I would rather wear my clothes than worn-out hand-me-downs. So I stepped on the gas. I knew what I was doing was dangerous and stupid, but I had nothing to live for or look forward to anyway. I might as well steal my clothes. I parked in front of my father's house. He was never home at this time. So I carried the bin bags I came with and let mysel
Accidental Claim 30 Joke of the day
Ruby We decided to drive to the venue in my car. Jasper preferred to take his but mine was better looking than his, so he agreed to drive mine instead. Jasper was dressed in jeans, a black t-shirt and a suit jacket. He looked hot and smashing. He looked like the Alpha he was, and he looked hot. I wished he wasn't packless. I would have shown him off. Randolph was a hottie, but he was nothing compared to Jasper. The moment we arrived at the venue, we parked in the visitors' car park. Racheal had gone through the trouble of marking where we would park so we would not have to deal with the vicious pack members. I knew I looked hot in my clothes, but I could not confidently wear them because I had stolen them from my father's house. The moment we stepped into the hall. The place went silent, and everyone was giving me angry stares. The ushers rudely showed Jasper and me our table, which was in a corner away from everyone. Suddenly I wished I didn't come. Racheal promised she would m
Accidental Claim 31 Sounds Like A Plan
Jasper Ruby was silent all through the drive back, and I was nervous. I did not know whether she would take it out on me or not. My claiming her literally screwed her life up. As much as I care for her, I honestly wish I didn't claim her the way I did. Her father did not intend to hurt her, but the man had no choice. His Alpha had it in for my mate. The delta that arrested her said people saw Ruby park in front of her father's house and carry bin bags to her car. With that statement, it was clear it wasn't her father who sold her out. Everything was just complicated, and I blamed myself for it. If I had taken the event more seriously, I would have borrowed some money from Cindy and got her a dress. All I had to do was get her a dress and a joining gift, and she wouldn't have had to go crazy the way she did. I felt like a total failure. One thing was sure, if Ruby did not flip out and leave, then I would have to get her back her honour, no matter what. The moment we entered our ap
Accidental Claim 32 After The Event
Jasper I left for work in the morning before Ruby woke up. She was so distraught and cried most of the night. It really broke my heart. I needed the showroom up and running in no time. I had a plan, and I needed to speed things up. It was okay to suck and be a nobody alone, but hearing them use those words on my mate got to me. It took a lot of control for Leon not to go on a rampage. I was determined to never let them have a reason to use those hurtful words on my mate again. I got to work and went straight to the workshop. My assistant, Godwin, was yet to resume, so I decided to attempt calling Liam. I was hopeful that he might have access to phone service now. He was a businessman, so he could only be away from his phone for some time. Two weeks was a long break. I was hoping to get through this time. My heart soared when his number began to ring. He answered. "Jasper! how have you been?" He asked me, as always, and I replied "I need your help," I said, and he was attentive.
Accidental Claim 33 Working On The Plan
Jasper I closed early and went straight home. I entered the house, and Ruby was not on the couch in the living room. I looked at the kitchen countertop, and the pancakes I made her for breakfast were still there. I hurried to the room, afraid she had run away. I was relieved to see her sitting by the window and looking outside. She was wearing my T-shirt. Her feet were on their couch, and she was hugging her knees. " Ruby?" I said, and she looked at me slowly. She wasn't her happy self, and my heart dropped. I didn't know if it was wise to tell her Racheal came by because even though she would be happy, she would also be sad because of the things Racheal had told me, so I kept it to myself. I went to her and squatted by the chair to see her face. " You didn't eat your food," I said, and she began to cry. " I can't go on like this. I can't go anywhere. I cannot work; I cannot dream." She said, and I hugged her. " I am working on it, Ruby. Soon you will be able to do all those thin
Accidental Claim 34 The Showroom
Ruby I followed Jasper to town to check out the showroom the next day. It was much more beautiful than it looked on the phone. It was also in a pricy part of town. We entered, and the place was breathtaking. They were yet to bring the sample furniture, and he said Godwin, his former colleague and now employee, would have them delivered and arranged the next day. There wasn't much to see, so he ushered me to my office. It was a beautifully decorated office with a luxury desk and a swivel chair. There was a couch with a small table and a television; the office was large and striking. Jasper walked in and closed the door behind him. He looked at me smiling. " You did all this?" I asked him, touched, and he nodded. I ran to him and kissed him deeply. I had never kissed him that way, but for the first time since the claiming incident, I was hopeful that I would get somewhere in life. " Jasper, I hope we are not in too much debt?" I asked him, worried that he might end up getting himsel
Accidental Claim 35 New Beginnings
Jasper. I had not seen Ruby so happy before. She kissed me differently and responded to my touch differently. I wanted to see her happy more. She was so delighted that she went on and on about the business most of the night. She snuggled into my arms. She made the first moves for the first time since we became mates, and I was happy too. When she asked me to love her, I was surprised that she would use the L-word with me. I had to make it count. After talking for a while, she finally fell asleep. I had resigned from Burke's corp. Godwin was helping with moving the sample furniture to the showroom the next day in preparation for the luncheon. The workers got it all covered, and they said I should relax at home. They got paid well, and the treatment was better, which made them love working at the workshop. They teased me about my mate. I did not figure we were both named after precious stones until they teased me about it. Soon I fell asleep. I woke up in the morning, and Ruby was
Accidental Claim 36 Shocking Revelation
Ruby When Jasper asked if I was happy, it got me thinking. I knew and felt he wanted a definite answer, but I couldn't give him one. Was I pleased with the direction things are going? Yes, I was. I didn't think it would ever happen. When I saw how Jasper lived, I thought my life was over. I tried to get a job to save money and leave, but no one would hire me, so I became depressed. I saw his efforts to make me happy, and I decided to adjust to my new life. I believe I was not in love with him, and neither was he in love with me. We were together because we had no choice. His wolf sunk his teeth into my neck, and now we were stuck together. Would I have had more with Randolph? Maybe not, but I doubted Alpha Hill would beat me with silver. The man would have worshipped me because I was bound to birth strong pups that would succeed his son when the time comes. I was glad that Jasper was making efforts, and they were working, but I wasn't happy. It would have been great if I chose this l
