Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Ella
ELLA“Quincy,” I said after a short silence. She arched an eyebrow as a smile danced at the corner of her lips.“I reckoned you’d say that. If he’s willing to help with the procedure, that means he considers you an important part of his life—or something close to it. That’s not the kind of thing someone does without a compelling reason. Why don’t you want a bond with him?”I pondered her question for a moment and decided to answer as honestly as I could. It was the only way to clear my doubts. “I don’t want to undo a bond with the twins only to jump right into another with someone I barely know. He’s been great so far, and his family are good people, but I feel like there’s more to him than meets the eye.”“More to him than meets the eye? In a good or bad way?” she asked, curiosity lighting up her features.“In a way that makes me want to stay close to him… and run as far away as possible at the same time. It’s that sort of uncertainty that leaves me wondering if bonding with him woul

ELLA“They probably have to take extra care with their pets so they don’t have to make the trip often or rely on what’s available—stairs or the elevator,” he replied.“It would be terrible if they were in the elevator when it stopped working. An anxious animal isn’t easy to deal with,” I said as we got closer to the receptionist’s desk.He nodded and turned to the receptionist, who suddenly wore a bright smile—a far cry from the bored expression she had when we arrived. He told her where we were headed and asked if the vet was available.When she responded in the affirmative, he thanked her, and we were on our way. A few minutes later, we were standing in the hallway, and I was out of breath.“I didn’t add exercise to the itinerary this morning. This better be worth it,” I said, standing still for a few minutes to steady my breathing.Quincy counted four doors and pointed to the fifth one. “This is as far as I can go. Good luck,” he replied, shoving his hands into his pockets.I wante

ELLA“Why didn’t anyone tell me about the preparations? I wouldn’t have gone for a walk, and I’d have been happy to help in whatever capacity I could.”“I’m surprised Eve didn’t mention it. Well, I think it’s because May would have her head if she found you working with the others.”“Why wouldn’t she want me to work?” I asked, the memory of our earlier conversation surfacing.“Who? May? You’re her guest, Ella. She takes hospitality seriously—wants her guests to feel as comfortable as possible. She thinks she’d be a terrible host if you were doing dishes or helping out in the kitchen before or after dinner.”“But I’d be more comfortable if I was contributing something to the house rather than being the one waited on. It makes me feel like a burden. I’m used to doing everything by myself. Now, I do nothing but eat, sleep, and take walks.”“Being waited on isn’t such a terrible thing, it—”“I know that, Quincy,” I interrupted. I was getting impatient, and his reply was starting to remind

ELLAI wasn’t expecting to meet him at home, given that I was used to him being out late. Seeing him as the first person at the door stirred a mix of emotions.I was scared the conversation might veer off into unwanted territory, and I would’ve felt much more comfortable if I’d met Eve instead.But then again, we can’t always get what we want, and this was a far cry from what I would’ve preferred.“Yeah, we finished our activities for the day earlier than usual, and I thought it would be nice to come spend the rest of the day with you,” he answered and took the items I was clutching. “But May said you had gone for a walk. This seems more like grocery shopping.”I shrugged and glanced around the house. It was unusually quiet, but I decided to focus on our conversation as we walked toward the kitchen. “Yeah, I needed a walk to clear my head. And I didn’t shop. I didn’t have to. The traders were so nice and welcoming. They gave me all of this. I was torn between rejecting their offer—whi

ELLASurprisingly, my ability hadn’t been triggered, and I hadn’t been in anyone’s head since we arrived. I was happy it hadn’t occurred—because it was better that way.I wasn’t sure I’d be able to control the outcome if it did, and the last thing I wanted was for Kade to find out where I was or, worse still, for Lucian to show up at the door demanding I return to the Blackthorn Pack.But I still needed someone to explain what this newfound ability was and how to navigate my way around it.There was also the problem of being connected to the twins despite their rejection. I toyed with the idea of severing ties while I was here, but I wasn’t keen on taking Quincy up on his offer to start a relationship.He was nice—perfectly nice, even—and good company, but at this point in my life, the sensible thing to do would be to stay alone.That way, I could make decisions that were beneficial to my well-being without considering anyone else’s feelings. I wouldn’t be tied to anyone, nor would I

ELLAMy first introduction to Quincy’s family was a memorable one—especially for someone used to having a house to herself. As they scrambled down the stairs, some of the boys lifted him into the air, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the chatter and excitement.The girls, on the other hand, led me toward a room, doing their best not to overwhelm me with questions.Once we reached an empty room, they apologized for the state of the place and explained that they hadn’t expected Quincy to return so early, let alone bring someone with him. As a result, they hadn’t made any effort to make it presentable.I looked around and chuckled. It seemed perfectly fine to me. There was a bed, a couch, and a vanity table. The only thing out of place was the dust—which was understandable, given that the room looked unused.They excused themselves, and I was grateful for a moment to myself. But a few seconds later, I heard a knock on the door. It creaked open, and a girl with blonde hair
