The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Sixty-Nine: Wasn't He?
Dead...died, as in I died again? As in, I prevented nothing?As in, I basically went back in time and played house with the same man who abandoned me?A smile that tastes numb crosses my face."Did you not hear my question, Ruby?"My gaze travels slowly to the man at the door; he looks different from the one who had been in my bed a few nights ago. It is the birthday that changed him, isn’t it? My nod is slow; I am not accepting anything, but I cannot stop my neck from tilting up and down.The ringing in my ears does not permit concrete thoughts to form in my mind. For the first time in my life, the clarity of not being able to change anything feels palpable."And...how accurate are your premo-""They have never failed."The queen answers before I pose my question."Are you ignoring me?"The Alpha asks with an irritated sigh when I still do not respond to him; the numbness in my chest minimises the impact of his burst into the room dripping in animosity."Of course, you are here, Your
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy: Casual Banter
A laugh almost escapes me, but the bitterness swirling in my chest makes me fear that I might cry instead should I voice my pain. So, my gaze remains on him; I do not dare blink in case tears dare escape me.It hurts; it shouldn’t hurt to hear these words from him, but Christ, it feels as if my heart has imploded in my chest.It must be my hormones making me feel this way; it must be otherwise…otherwise…Christ, it's almost as though I believed him when he said he cared. I didn’t, but it’s almost as if I did."Elaine will spend the week…”Christ, he is still talking about Elaine.His mouth still calls her name as if… “…Sunday for school, where she will stay until her official graduation. I won't sleep with her, Ruby. Just trust me."He continues but, I am not sure what I have missed, I am uncertain of what he has uttered beyond his threats and…I do not want to take in more of what he wants to say in case he takes them back later."And..."A sigh escapes me, I hate its tremble.I am a
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-One: Risqué
Ruby M CliveLadders don't look that scary unless you are coming down from them at night, and while they are wet from the light drizzle the cold night holds.The Beta's hands on my waist as he helps me off the ladder safely feel large."What do you know about second chance mates?"He questions before I can even take a step past him."Shh! Keep your voice down; I'll tell you in the car.""You will tell me right now.""Or what? We are not enemies here, Beta. Help me; I will answer you, albeit condescendingly—I am in a sour mood, from the privacy of your vehicle."His scoff follows; I did not know the beta had a mean streak—I like it.It would be even better if he screws as meanly.I miss sex.I miss sex with a furious Alpha whose only thoughts are of me, but if we fuck now, the name out of his lips will not be mine. Hell, it may never be mine again.This is quite possibly it for us.I wish I weren’t scared of penetration. I wish our last sex before Elaine had been more than oral, more t
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Two: I Wouldn't
Adrian M Knox "Muaas." Elaine drawled his name as if it offered her life. Each time she purred his name, she took a step toward him. In his head, he took an equal one back, but...in reality, he hadn't moved. "Don't." He meant the words as a command, but again, they failed him. "Muaas...please, I'm burning..." The blood rushing in his veins turned furious; even his heart felt as if it would leap out of him. Her scent burned his skin, and the veins on his temple hummed. He wanted to pounce on her. But he couldn’t. He would- Before the promise even formed in his mind, his hand reached for her; it was pure instinct, one she did not resist—not that he would let her resist him. Christ, she was cold to the touch, just the temperature his skin craved. But, If holding her felt this good, what about tasting her? What would she taste like? Grapes? Chocolate? Roses? He did not much care for flowers, but he loved the scent of roses in the crisp winter because that was what the training
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Author's note
Hi, my apologies for going back on my word so fast, but an emergency has made it impossible for updates to the main story for the next few days; please bear with me, I will be back from the 1st of next month with hopefully double chapters daily since my schedule is beginning to open up.

The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Bonus #2: Valedictorian
Hello! So, unfortunately, there wasn’t enough hype for the bonus, perhaps a poor theme choice (?), so I’ll wrap them up in one or two more chapters. Quick disclaimer: This chapter contains Dubious Consent and Threat to S. Assault. The regular chapters resume tomorrow. As always, thank you for reading! ** The VIP room was clean, to his standard, and as per his instruction, his new business partner left. The partner who left was an old classmate, and the only reason they were now partners was that he introduced him to where she was. If not for the club-no, if not for Ruby, he would not have accepted the business proposal. And by clean, he meant that it didn't reek of tobacco like the rest of the club, a club he shouldn't even be in, but again, Ruby. She was a nobody who came from nowhere and took his seat at the university, took every leading grade in the courses they shared from under his nose, and vanished before he ever had the chance to bring her to his knees. The door to h
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Three: For Me
Adrian M Knox‘I wouldn't?’What was that supposed to mean?'I wouldn't?'Adrian toyed with the words again; they made little sense, considering his Beta’s words earlier."You said before that I should visit the room before ‘it's too late’, and then now you say, ‘I wouldn’t’? Are you testing me?""No."His beta responded before stepping aside.Again, Leon offered contradictory body language.With a tired sigh, he turned to the door; no sooner had his arm reached for the handle than the door flew open, and the queen stepped out. Her eyes were puffy and wet, while her nose remained an irritated shade of pink, perhaps from the constant sniffing she seemed to do. She looked dishevelled.Her golden eyes raised to his before she visibly stilled. "Alpha."Her call was not a greeting; she was angry. He couldn't place why, but his legs moved towards the room she exited."A little privacy, Alpha!"The Queen insisted as her hand flew across the door, keeping him from pushing it open.“Is she i
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Seventy-Four: Repercussions
Adrian M KnoxShe was mocking him, but she had every right to, given the circumstances."Ruby, are you okay?"He asked, trying his best to keep the topic on the matter at hand."Am I okay?"She repeated in a whisper before again scoffing at his words.He wanted to howl and express something, but…he felt nothing but the urge to run to Elaine’s room. Even he knew something was wrong with how the mating system worked, but…what was he supposed to do?"I don't want any more visitors, Alba.""Ruby, are you-""Am I okay? That’s what you want to ask me after I lost a baby, a baby you said you wanted, you said you—ah… fuck, why am I so stupid? I should never have believed you; I should have gone through with the abor- mmmn.."She sealed her lips to keep more words from leaving her mouth before closing her eyes and shaking her head from side to side.Her outburst was short, too short.Her inhale was quick before again her eyes opened, and she turned to look at him once more, but there was an of
