Drake's POV

My chest kept rising and falling steadily as I observed Matteo, not from exhaustion but from the tension that wouldn't stop.

He moved back immediately. Still, something about it did not strike me as withdrawal.

It also did not seem to be defeat. If for anything… it struck me as something premeditated.

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 165

    Drake's POVMy chest kept rising and falling steadily as I observed Matteo, not from exhaustion but from the tension that wouldn't stop.He moved back immediately. Still, something about it did not strike me as withdrawal.It also did not seem to be defeat. If for anything… it struck me as something premeditated.He was far too composed for someone who had just been challenged. For someone who had just been tested like Betsy had, he was far too cool.I narrowed my eyes slightly as I looked at him closely.I watched his every movement, the way he looked at her. It looked suspicious to me.He could not even fool me, not for one second.People like Matteo only backed off if they had something else in mind. And right now, I could sense it.He was not quite done yet that I was very sure of.“The way you are stepping back, are you sure you don’t want to leave now?” I asked slowly, my voice cool as I stared at him. “Are you ready to leave now?” I repeated the question. He looked at me fo

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 164

    Betsy's POVMy heart was beating so rapidly that I believed I could hear it in my ears.Between Matteo and myself, I stood there facing him, none of us wanted to be the bigger person and let go.I could let this go on much longer without feeling tired one bit.I was stronger now, I was not the same frail girl he knew any longer.My wolf was agitated within me. She was growled and paced all around. She was ready to move and act immediately but it wasn't like before when I acted wild and erratic.Drake was behind me, his presence was constant and powerful, with him standing there, I felt like I could take on the world.I didn't need a soothsayer to inform me he was watching and prepared to step in if matters turned wrong. That alone inspired me to continue.I stayed firm even when a little degree of fear was slowly trying to creep in but I stood my ground.Unlike before when I came across him, goosebumps from nowhere filled my body and i would begin to tremble, but now, his presence an

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 163

    Drake's POVMy heart was thumping violently in my chest, not from dread, but from what I saw unfold directly in front of me.Betsy was standing there, standing up for herself. As she talked to Matteo, she appeared very assured, resolute, and strong.My eyes could not believe what they were witnessing. I used my hands to wipe my face to be sure I was seeing correctly.The same Betsy who a few months ago could not stand up for herself now stood in front of Matteo without fear.Had Betsy been in such circumstances, the regular Betsy would have wept but that had altered.Deep down, I was incredibly proud of how strong she had grown and how she could now defend herself.But the most startling aspect of seeing her was witnessing her manage her abilities, she had been making improvements in that part.Earlier this week, during an argument she had lost control and it drained her of her energy right when she was trying to defend Harmony from Vivian’s clutches. Watching her fight it now, I coul

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 162

    Betsy's POVIn my chest, my heart was racing uncontrollably, how could he appear here to claim someone he could not have, that was the height of his stupidity.My hold on Drake's hand weakened gradually.Matteo took another step again, his eyes never left mine, yet his expression remained disdainful.On his face, he still retained that composed demeanor, which gave the entire affair a different feel.I was nearly overwhelmed by a wave of terror right away, but I couldn't allow him to see it.I stood my ground, he wasn't to know that his presence still had some sort of effect on me.Even my self-assurance improved when Drake moved closer and stood next to me. With him being there, I knew he wouldn't allow Matteo to hurt me at all and Matteo wouldn’t even dare try such.Feeling that surge of confidence, I drew closer to drake and squeezed his hands tightly.“I am your mate and that's how it was meant to be,” Matteo repeated.“You cannot conquer fate”, he said, a grin on his face.“It is

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 161

    Betsy's POVI stayed still, I didn’t even move an inch. The tension in the air was unbearable.It was nearly visible, not only felt. Thick and hard. It was simultaneously pinning all of us.Drake stayed put also. Like a shield I hadn't asked for but urgently needed, he stood strong in front of me, his body separating me from Matteo.Still… I did back away. Rather, I hung around.I was closer to him now than before. Near enough to feel his body's warmth. Slowly, I turned my attention toward his face. I could see it even from the side. The rage in his eyes. But below that, there was something else.He was holding it within because of me. My chest stiffened a bit as I came to that understanding.Then my attention returned to Matteo. He had remained still.“I'm not leaving,” Matteo said.His voice broke through the thick silence.“Not until she says yes to hearing me.”My heart leaped. As his words sank in, my fingers curled at my sides.My mind whirled once more, I swallowed hard and ev

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 160

    Betsy's POVMy footsteps ended abruptly when I saw him.Matteo. Standing just there. Inside the Lanemoon pack.My mind resisted it for a second. It felt unreal, like I was seeing something that wasn’t there. My eyes remained glued on him, expecting him to vanish, but nothing happened.What is he actually doing here?As I began to walk slowly toward him, that question echoed in my head.Every step felt like my body was unsure of whether to go to him or back down. I pushed myself to keep going.I wanted answers.“Matteo… what are you doing here?” I asked. My voice was steady even if I could sense the tension building within me when I got close enough.He shifted his head slowly, as though he had already seen me long before I uttered a word.Our eyes met. And something about the look in his eyes caused my stomach to flip.It wasn't a surprise. It was absolute certainty. Like he had wanted this moment to happen. Like he had been waiting for me.Just this made my anxiety more intense.“Thi

    Betsy's POVThough it was challenging at first, I gradually opened my eyes. I could not see clearly, and my lids felt heavy. I blinked once, then once more, struggling to correct my vision. For a few seconds, I couldn’t see anything clearly. My head felt heavy as well, and my body was feeble in a

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 145

    Drake's POVI stopped right in front of him.Maxwell did not flinch. He did not even look startled.That already irritated me.For a brief second, I stared at him, my expression steely, my wolf still restless under my skin from the abrupt change.“What are you doing here?” I asked, my voice low but

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 144

    Drake's POVWith my eyes glued to one thing only, I remained at the far end of the room.Betsy.She lay still and quiet on the bed, exactly as she had been since the previous night. Anyone would have assumed she was dead if not for the faint rise and fall of her chest.But she wasn't.She could ha

    Betsy's POVI could not remember the precise time. Everything became quiet.One second my body had been overtaken by something beyond my control, the next it felt like I had been drawn into somewhere nothing hurt anymore.I was not in pain opening my eyes. I was not even on the training ground. I w
