Fated To Ruin You 026 - Ashina
The last message from the order was still echoing in my head when the distant echo of shouts and a sharp but faint siren-like sound resounded through the lab. It was followed by hushed voices, and then boots slamming against the tiled floors as they rushed past the hallway outside the lab I was in.My heart jolted.Maya.I bolted to the door, yanking it open in time to see a blur of security personnel rushing down the corridor with their comms pressed to their ears.But besides them, there were a few lab technicians who moved around with trays and containers, with a minute sense of urgency, though they lacked the tension the security personnel seemed to have.My pulse kicked up. Was something happening to Maya because I hadn’t made my choice immediately?I reached out and grabbed the sleeve of a passing lab assistant. "What's going on? What's happening?"He blinked at me like I’d interrupted his thought. “No idea. Probably something about sensors going off. Who knows.” Then he walked

I stumbled backward, my grip on my phone slipping instantly. It clattered to the floor with a sickening crack that echoed through the lab. My hand flew to my chest as my lungs locked in their panic mode. The other hand flailed blindly, searching for anything to keep me upright. My fingers brushed the cold edge of the lab table, and I latched on like I might fall straight through the floor.What in the…How did anyone even…My thoughts tangled, and my breath hitched. A tremor raced through me as I stared at my phone lying face-up on the ground, its screen glowing with the still-open email and those words.I spun around, scanning the lab like a hunted animal. My gaze darted to the smoke detector above the door, to the shadowed corners of the ceiling, to every piece of equipment lining the sterile counters. Looking for the impossible. A lens. A shadow. A blinking red light. Something to explain how they were watching me.But there was nothing.No camera. No trace. No eyes.Then how the h

I had silently fumed throughout the ride to the lab. It was probably why the men in the front seat didn’t even bother to blindfold me as we went back. I was too wrapped up in my own head. The adrenaline that had carried me through drugging Kael and escaping had finally started to wear off somewhere along the highway.My pulse had begun to slow, but the fire in my chest only seemed to burn hotter with every mile we passed.What the hell had I done?No. I shook the thought out. I couldn’t backtrack. I’d done what I had to do. What I believed was right for my sanity. I deserved to find out the answers of my own, too.Still, a thousand scenarios clawed at my brain. Had Kael woken up yet? Had he found out and realized what I’d done? Was he furious?I swore under my breath, trying to tell myself a dozen times that it didn’t matter now what he felt.That was my choice, and I made it with my full chest. I would accept a

I let out a groggy moan. Everywhere felt heavy. My tongue felt thick in my mouth, and I had a nauseating swirl turning in my gut. Someone was shaking me too hard, and voices jabbed into my skull like splinters.What in the…“Alpha! Kael!” Someone barked angrily.It sounded familiar.My throat felt like sandpaper, and my mouth tasted like stale wine and something bitter beneath it. “What… the hell…?” he muttered, squinting against the dim light as the ceiling spun.My chest tightened with disorientation. The pounding in my head was relentless, every heartbeat like a drumbeat behind my eyes. A sour burst of panic coiled in my stomach. I wasn’t just drunk, I’d been drugged.“Alpha!”I blinked and my vision swam as I made out Dawn’s silhouette. “What’s… what’s going on?”“She’s gone,” Dawn snapped. “Ashina is missing.”That cut through the fog instantly as the words rang in my head. I surged from my seat too fast, causing a

Every part of me was on fire.My steps echoed against the concrete as Kael guided me out of the dungeon, the door slamming shut behind us. My blood roared in my ears, louder than my boots hitting the concrete. Louder than Kael’s steady steps beside me. Louder than everything except for those final words echoing over and over again in my head like a siren, endless, and impossible to ignore.Test Kael’s blood.My fists clenched around the cooler bag, my fingers numb from how tightly I gripped it. Inside it was the vial of venom and the extracted fangs. A grotesque reminder of everything that I’d just witnessed and a semblance of hope.But that hope was drowned by those three words as they throbbed in my temples, as the question of what if that’s true rang next to them.I didn’t realize when we got outside again until the cold night air slapped me awake.When had it gotten dark?My heart skipped a b

I trailed after Dawn back into the building down the elevator with Kael not too far behind. They were fast in their search. So fast that it made me wonder, bitterly, how someone so efficient could have failed to look for me all these years, if what he claimed was true.The thought struck a raw nerve.I swallowed hard and forced it down. No. I wasn’t going to that to myself, instead I let myself focus on the fact that the one who bit Maya was not too far from us.Dawn slowed her steps beside a different metal door from where Calen was in and threw a sideways glance my way with a raised brow. “You want to take the lead—?”I shook my head before Dawn finished asking. I didn’t care if this was a form of taunt from her on whether I was able to handle this or not. I knew this was different and I wasn’t a fool who didn’t know how to back down.This was too different from the case with Calen because there was no trying to prove this one was innocent. I did
