Betsy’s pov

“You’re staring at me,” Drake said, a twinkle in his eyes.

He was lying on his bed and I was lying beside him, on my side and just looking at him. I was storing memories for later.

I shrugged. “You’re a handsome man.”

He let out a startled laugh. “Since when do you compliment me? Aren't you scared my ego will grow like you always say.”

I shook my head. “You're hurt. I guess I can let that happen for now.”

“If I knew that, I'd have gotten hurt faster.”

“Hey, don't say that,” I go clo

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 183

    Matteo’s POVMy eyes were solely on her, watching her every move, and I saw every reaction she was giving without her even realizing it.She had grown stronger. Her willpower had grown stronger than the last time I had an encounter with her.I could see that clearly now. But strength alone didn’t matter here.What she really needed at this point was control. But right now….She was losing every ounce of control bit by bit.“Your resolve is cracking”, I said calmly, my eyes still fixed on her. “It’s not obvious to you yet, but it’s there”.“You’re not moving as fast as you were a few moments ago”, I continued.She looked at me, I’m sure you could have stabbed me to death if she had a chance.She didn’t reply, and that told me all I needed to know. She didn’t want to admit it to give me that satisfaction.But her silence didn’t hide the truth, it only confined what I already knew.I took a step closer to her. I moved slowly and deliberately, closing the small distance little by litt

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 182

    Betsy’s POVI couldn’t stay at a place anymore. Standing there that way felt wrong, I felt like if I didn’t shift, something in me would take over before I realized what was happening. I was breathing very fast as the strange feeling kept building within me.It was stronger this time. It felt like I was fighting what was right under my skin.I tried to take a step backward, to my surprise, I moved.Then I took another step, trying to create a space between Matteo and me.I wanted to think.“Stay right there, don’t come any closer to me”, I said, my voice trembling no matter how hard I tried to be strong. “I mean everything I just said, Matteo, stay there”.He didn’t even respond to me; he just stood there watching me, like he had seen how things would play out before.“You’re trying to give me a little space”, he said calmly, all his attention on me. “But we both know that distance won’t help you one bit”.“Stay away from me”, I said to him, my voice harsh as I took another step backw

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 181

    Nick’s POVThings were not normal yet, but the chaos had reduced drastically.I was scanning the area with my eyes. We had a lot of injured people, but we were pulling ourselves together.The thought of my sister filled my head, and I found it hard to concentrate.The air felt heavy and filled with tension; each of us felt it.Betsy was with him, and it put all of us on edge.“Let’s regroup”, I said, immediately raising my voice. “Let’s do a head count of those that are injured and those still strong to fight, I don’t want anyone to be unaccounted for”, I said to them.They nodded without hesitation and started doing as I ordered.One of them came up to me after a moment.“We’ve secured most of the place”, he said. “But we are still noticing some movement deeper inside the forest; it seems like his men pulled back on purpose”, the guard said.“Of course, this wasn’t a random attack but a trap”, I said firmly. “They wanted to scatter our formation and weaken us”.“This was planned very

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 180

    Drake’s POVI tried to stay calm, but I couldn’t. The anger was still burning strongly inside me. It was sharp and made my chest tight, no matter how hard I tried to be calm.Nick’s hands were still on mine firmly; it was a reminder for me to think clearly before acting.“Think about this for a moment,” Nick said calmly. “You’re still quick to act. If you go rushing in like this again, we’ll be making a very big mistake”.I took a deep breath, clenching my teeth tightly as I tried to reason with him.“I know exactly what I’m doing”, I said to him. “All I can think of right now is her with him”, I said forcefully.“I want her right back, too”, Nick said softly. “That’s the reason I’m here, holding you back from acting rashly”.I took my eyes off him for a second as I scanned around the forest.The fighting was coming to an end as many of Matteo’s men were already retreating, and the volunteers from my pack were regrouping. Some tended to those who were injured, and the rest stood guard

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 179

    Betsy’s POVI was trying to stay calm, but I couldn’t; no matter how hard I tried to be calm, I was still breathing fast.I was still standing in the same spot for almost an hour. I didn’t even know how long anymore.My body didn’t feel like it belonged to me anymore. The pull was still there, and it was stronger.It kept holding me in place, and I couldn’t fully understand what was going on.I tried to steady myself, but I couldn’t.My heart was pounding furiously as I placed my hand on my chest.“Why am I feeling this way?” I whispered to myself.I noticed Matteo’s eyes on me, he was staring at me intently. The way he was watching made it feel like he already expected this reaction from me.“You’re feeling it more now, right?” He asked. “The harder you fight it, the stronger it becomes”.I stared at him,

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 178

    Nick’s POVDrake was filled with raw and uncontrollable anger. I saw it in the way he was trying to shift and push through me.He didn’t want to think or calculate the next move to make; he wasn’t even thinking about the consequences or what would go wrong if he moved forward. All he wanted was to rush in.I knew that’s exactly how Matteo wanted him to react.“Damn it”, I said softly as I watched him tear through some wolves that were attacking him like rags.The fight was still on, and it was getting tougher by the minute.Some of our pack members that the ropes had dragged were struggling to free themselves, some were free and fighting back the attackers.All these didn’t matter as the main damage was done.Betsy was nowhere to be found, and Drake wasn’t even thinking straight.I turned to look at him for another second as he smashed an attacker's head.“He’ll walk right into whatever trap Matteo has set for him if he keeps acting this way”, I whispered to myself.I dodged and pushe

    Drake's POVFor the last months, I had completely ignored Nick's insistence on having an audience with me.Whenever the guards informed me of his arrival, I usually repeated my usual phrases.Just tell him I'm currently occupied, tell him I’m not here or even better, tell him to leave.I kept convi

    Drake’s POVThe study gave off a scent made up of paper and vintage wooden furniture.I had spent a lot of time in that room, but my perception of time was quite distorted. It was like a rubber band that would stretch when I decided to and disappear when I needed. My desk looked like an odd sort of

    Vivian’s POVThe mall resounded with the loud voices of people and their conversations.I was dazzled by the heavy glass, the shining floor, and the overpowering lights all around me from all sides. You could barely hear the music in the background, which was yet another composition that was both h

  • My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.   Chapter 64

    Betsy’s POVThat night I went to bed not having said much at all.My body was exhausted, but my brain kept going in different directions. I was lying on my side, facing the wall and listening to the house’s quiet sounds. The refrigerator’s soft hum. The floor in the distance creaked a little as Nic
