The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Sixty-Six: True Luna
Adrian M. Knox"You are pregnant."The Alpha reminded through gritted teeth to her provocation of sleeping with the first man she saw."Then I guess I'll do it raw then since I can't get super pregnant.""Oh yeah, because STIs are just rumours to you that you could afford to jeopardise our child's safety for a chance at being vindictive.""Don’t you like that we are both living on the edge?"She responded with a smile that irritated him.This was the version of her that he knew. This was the goddamn ‘Clive’ he married.“Why the hell are you so angry when I did nothing?”He asked, no yelled—this wasn’t how their conversation was supposed to go. How could communication fail so miserably?“This isn’t me angry, I mean, yes, perhaps a little, but I am also relieved that you didn’t bring her here.”“Am I that untrustworthy?”He asked, but she didn’t answer.He felt his shoulders deflate and his spirit diminish.“Ruby, am I that untrustworthy?”He asked again in a voice that sounded too smal

Adrian M. Knox."What is this?"The question slipped from his lips in a tone that didn't suit him."It's a list of interns."His secretary answered as if he had missed the title at the top of the document."She is out."He uttered, placing Elaine's folder on the table."But she is the most qualified-""This isn't a debate; she is out."His head swirled. As if his argument with Ruby had not been bad enough his mind permitted him to dream of Elaine, dream of ravishing her, and the guilt consumed him.He was a married man; shouldn’t his subconscious mind also remain faithful?He sighed into his hands.“I do not even want her in this building.”He uttered again to his secretary as if his rejection did not make them suspect him anymore.He did not want Ruby to pull away, and he did not want to be Elaine’s mate.Elaine deserved better than a potential divorcee, better than to have to fight for a married man…better than him, she deserved better than him.She was supposed to be his kid sister
The Alpha's Ruby Obsession Chapter Sixty-Eight: In a Way You Cannot
"Let me go! Let me go. I want to see Muaas! I want to see my mate!"Elaine persists, throwing her arms around only for them to get arrested once more."Elaine!"The head maid calls as she rushes across the hall, stilling her fuss as surprise overcomes her face.“Benny…”Elaine whispers, perhaps the maid’s name, before the maid winks to her, then bows to me."Please allow me to escort her outside; I have known her since she was a child; if two grown men carry her this roughly, then she could be traumatised-”"The head maid too, take her with you. She is fired."My turn to the surprised maid from the security personnel is quick."You are fired.""The Alpha would never permit this!"Her yell is fast, but not faster than the men’s split, so that one handles Elaine and the other grabs her by her arm.The nearby maids, enjoying the loud drama unfolding in the halls, thanks to Elaine’s hysterics, begin to snicker and whisper amongst themselves."Anyone else wants to lose their jobs today?"M
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
