Monika Pov's .I was fuming in anger because of Ryan and his strange behaviour. If he doesn't want to come close to me then he shouldn't. He is confusing me with his actions. He ran behind me to apologise, but I didn't give him a chance and closed the door in his face. Tears welled up in my eyes but I refused to shed them for a man like him. I know he is guilty but he always does this. He first hurt me with his jerk behaviour and then apologised as if Anika and I were a robot who didn't get hurt. I sat on the ground with the support of the door, trying to divert my attention from him. The hate for him keeps increasing with the time I'm spending with him.I shivered when someone knocked on the door, and I knew who it was. "Monika" I closed my eyes when Ryan took my name. He kept knocking but I didn't respond."I bought a dress for you," He whispered. I looked at his coat, which I was wearing."This is the way he found out to make us talk to him," Anika scoffed and shook her head i
Ryan Pov's.I tried everything to make Monika talk to me but she kept ignoring me. I wanted to apologise to Anika and Monika for hurting them but they are not giving me a chance to do so.For two days, I kept knocking on the door for one reason and another, but she never responded. In the end, I had to keep the tray of food outside the room and leave so that she wouldn't let out her anger on food. She was ready to spend her entire day in a room to ignore me.I thought I would not get a chance to talk to her on the third day as well, but then she finally came out of the room to keep the dirty dishes in the sink. She was about to go back to her room to run away from me but I didn't let her. I was about to apologise to her but then her words broke my spirit to say anything."Stay Away from me," She said the same words I said to her. She pushed me using Anika's strength then went back to her room.I sighed and walked towards the hall. I hissed in pain when my back touched the couch. The
Monika Pov's .Ryan will drive me crazy someday. I almost lost control over myself and forgot I was mad at him, but thanks to Anika, who reminded me how he left us alone in pain when we needed him the most.I sat on the couch near the window and looked outside to divert my mind from Ryan but ended up thinking about him and his actions."Be honest, Anika... Are you mad at him for pushing us away or because he left us alone in pain?" I asked."I think both the reasons are enough to kill him" I laughed at the choice of her words and nodded, agreeing with her. "Maybe I would've forgiven Ryan for pushing us away because, as he said, it was Wild, not him, who came close to us, but after how he left us alone, Ryan's reaction increased my anger. He made me feel like we are not human but a toy with whom he loves to play." Anika hissed in anger."I called him ruthless for a reason," I muttered and picked my novel from the side table. The only good thing about my Ruthless Alpha is that he made

Monika and Gabriel went to meet Aana as it was her last trimester and she wanted to know how she and her babies were doing. Her smile vanished when instead of Aana, Aaron opened the door."Monika" Aana came from behind and pushed Aaron aside to hug Monika, bringing a smile to Monika's face while Aaron was looking at Aana dumbstruck, not expecting her to push him like this."How was your trip?" Aana asked. Monika l
Author Pov's .Monika stood up from the bench to go to her room when her eyes went to Gabriel. She blushed when she caught him staring at her, unaware he wasn't doing it but lost in thoughts of his ex-fated mate, Rose."Gabriel" Monika called him, bringing him back to the world."Yeah" "Why are you standing there? Come sit beside me" She offered. He nodded and sat beside her."What are you thinking?" She asked."Nothing special," he muttered. Didn't want to hurt Monika by telling her the truth that he was thinking about Rose."Ohh.. Okay," She replied and sat straight."I can't believe you're thinking of giving Gabriel a chance or coming into a relationship with him.” Anika scowled and shook her head.“Huh?” Monika frowned.“It's nothing but foolishness, Monika. You both don't even have topics to talk about," Anika grunted. Monika looked at Gabriel who looked back at her when he felt her eyes on him."What happened?" he asked. She shook her head and rubbed her hands anxiously. He to
Author Pov's .Monika went dumbstruck when Anika started calling for his mate. She shook her head."No... We can't meet our mate" Her words shocked Anika. "What do you mean?" Anika asked."I promised Gabriel we would never leave him. I can't go with my fated mate" Monika mumbled."I didn't make any promises. It was you, and I'm going to meet my mate," Anika hissed and started fighting with Monika to take control."No... We are not going to meet our fated mate" Monika said, trying her best not to let Anika control."I don't care what you promise to Gabriel or what you want. My mate is here and I will not miss this chance to meet him." Anika said stubbornly."Don't force me to use wolfsbane, Anika""You know we need to meet him and I can't control this desire... Please Monika, let's meet him... I beg you... Please" Anika pleaded. Monika sighed and nodded, agreeing to meet with Ryan but Anika didn't know that Monika got ready because she was thinking of rejecting him for Gabriel."Let
Author Pov's . "Alpha", Anika called Aaron and knocked on the door. Tears were streaming from her eyes. She was scared for Ryan as he was losing blood. Aaron opened the door. His eyes shot up seeing Anika in control and crying. "Luna" Anika pushed him aside and went towards Aana. "My mate," she whimpered. "What happened? why are you crying?" Aana asked her. "I'm Anika, Monika's wolf. My mate is severely injured and bleeding," Anika replied. "What?" Aana asked and took Anika's hand in hand to console her. "But how?" "I don't know," Anika sobbed. "Gabriel, take him to our pack hospital," Aaron ordered his beta, who was standing a little distance, watching everything silently. "He wasn't ready to go," Anika yelled. "He wants to meet you, Luna" "Me?" Aana asked, pointing her finger at herself and looking at Anika in bewilderment. "Yes, he is adamant to meet you. He put a condition that he would not get himself treated until you meet him. Please, Luna, meet him.
Author Pov's.Monika was waiting for Gabriel's reply but he didn't say a word to her. She broke the hug and passed him a smile. He looked at her and caressed her hair like a best friend, then kissed her forehead."You can choose him if he makes you happy," He said. Monika shook her head and took his hand in her hands."Your happiness matters to me, Gabriel. I will reject him as soon as he gets conscious" "You don't need to" He uttered."Huh?" she looks at him in bewilderment."I--I mean to say I'm happy you are going to reject him for me," Gabriel lied and closed his eyes in guilt, realising this was not what he wanted to say."Is everything okay?" she asked, noticing how anxious he was while talking to her."No" He answered and shook his head and then took a deep breath to talk to her calmly."This is not what I wanted, Monika. I asked you to choose me because" Before he could complete, a warrior mindlinked him, informing him about the attack on the border. His eyes shot up when he
Author Pov's."No… I have gone insane. How can he be here?” Monika sighed and then shook her head. “I started thinking a lot about Ryan. Maybe that's why I'm hallucinating him everywhere" Monika mumbled to herself. In the past five years, Monika has thought about Ryan every day. Sometimes, she considers Ryan her biggest mistake, and sometimes, she considers herself fortunate because she got Jenny after spending that beautiful night with Ryan. Monika shook her head, not wanting to think about Ryan especially when she came on a date with someone. She went in the direction where that person was seated after ordering a hot coffee for him and asked the waiter to send it to the table where he was seated.The moment Monika kept her hand on his shoulder, her eyes widened as she realised she wasn't hallucinating. He was no stranger but her ex-fated mate Ryan. Ryan stood up and turned towards Monika... His eyes widened after seeing her. The shock was visible on his face."Monika" Ryan was l
Author Pov's.Jenny lunged over Monika happily like a monkey. Monika encircled her hands around Jenny's waist and hugged her."You're ready to see Daddy, Mommy?" Jenny asked again to which Monika nodded and smiled."I love you, Mommy""I love you too, baby, and I can do anything for you and your smile", Monika replied and kissed Jenny's cheeks."What is going on in your head, Monika?" Olivia asked Monika through mindlink. Monika made Jenny stand on the ground."But before choosing a daddy for me. We will go on a trip. Okay?" Monika said to Jenny, ignoring Olivia's glare."Trip.. Yeah," Jenny yelled excitedly and clapped her hands. "Let me inform Grandpa about it", Jenny said and ran towards Monika's father's room. Monika looked at Olivia, who crossed her hands around her chest and raised one eyebrow, asking her what was going on. Monika sighed and went towards the door to close it, not wanting Jenny to eavesdrop on the conversation like last time."The person who drops Jenny at home
Author Pov's.Monika was searching for Jenny in the nearby place while using Anika's power, and that's when her mom mind-linked her."Jenny is back home," Olivia said. Monika took a relief breath and sat on the ground while crying, feeling like her soul had returned to her body. "Thank you, Moon Goddess…Thank you for keeping her safe. If something had happened to her, then I would've died,'' Monika mumbled, looking into the sky. She took a deep breath and wiped her tears. She stood up and ran back home, wanting to see her angel as soon as possible. The moment Monika entered the hall, she found Jenny sitting on the couch with her head down."Jenny" Monika called her. Jenny looked up and then ran towards her mom. Monika picked Jenny up in her arms and attached Jenny to her chest."Where did you go, baby? Mommy got scared for you. For a moment, I felt like someone took my heart out of my chest," Monika said. She broke the hug and looked at Jenny with teary eyes."I'm sorry, Mommy. I di
Author Pov's .Monika was waiting for her Mom in her office cabin, but her mother didn't show up the entire day, and when she tried to mindlink Olivia, she blocked her, which increased Monika's frustration and anger two times. "I just want to bang someone's head on the wall." Monika groaned and looked at the door when someone knocked, only to find her assistant standing there with a file."Come in" "Olivia, ma'am, asked me to give you this file" Monika scrunched her eyebrow in confusion as her mother never took an interest in office work."Put it on the table and ask Mom to call me when she gets free", Monika told her assistant, who nodded her head and left after bowing her head.Monika opened the file, and a low growl escaped from her mouth after seeing the pictures of a few men along with their bio-data. It didn't take her long to understand that Olivia sent these pictures as a marriage proposal."Mom" " she growled and cursed under her breath before picking up her car keys and s
Author Pov's ."Jenny" She ran back to her room before Monika could say anything or try to fix the damage she accidentally caused."Mom" Monika turned her head towards her mother. "she heard everything" "Go talk to her," Olivia said. Monika nodded and ran behind Jenny to her room. Monika was about to knock on the door but stopped when she saw Jenny lying on the bed, crying while hugging her teddy. Her tears were enough to twitch Monika's heart in pain. Monika wiped her tears and took a deep breath to calm herself. She went inside and sat beside her princess."Princess", She called Jenny lovingly, who hid her face in a teddy bear. "Princess.. Please look at your Mommy," Monika muttered, feeling her voice getting heavier because of the tears she was holding in front of her daughter. She pulled Jenny into her lap forcefully when Jenny didn't look at her despite her continuous request. Jenny hid her face in Monika's chest while sobbing in the same way as Monika did before with her mo
Author Pov's .Monika was trying to engross herself in work, sitting inside her cabin, not wanting to think about Ryan, but nothing was working. Ryan's face, smile, eyes and the moment she spent with him were ruining her peace of mind. At last, she closed her laptop frustratingly and went back home."You came at the right time… Let's have dinner" Before Jenny's mom, Olivia, could finish, Monika went towards her room, not wanting to show her distressed face to her mother."What happened to her?" Monika heard her mother mumbling to herself because of her amazing hearing power but she didn't stop. She closed the door of her room with a thud and sat on the couch, breathing heavily."I wish I could tell him I wasn't playing any victim card, but my destiny made me a victim," Monika whispered and an unwanted tear rolled from her eyes when she realised how doomed she was when it came to love."It's okay, Monika… You're strong. Stop crying like a weakling" She motivated herself and wiped her
Author Pov's .(Flashback continues after 5 years of Ryan and Monika's separation and one month before Monika and Ryan's marriage).Monika was sitting on a chair in her office, working on her laptop, when her mom, Olivia, dashed inside her office fuming in anger."What are you doing here?" Olivia shouted, startling Monika who stood up from her chair."You scared me, Mom" She kept her hand on my chest to calm her racing heart. "Why are you looking at me with so much love?" She asked when her mom was glaring at her."Aren't you forgetting something?" Olivia asked and encircled her hands around her chest. Monika scrunched her eyebrow and checked her mobile to see what she had planned for today. Her eyes shot up when she realised what she had forgotten."I'm dead" She looked at her mom with a terrifying look. "How could you forget such an important day, Monika?" Olivia growled. "Mom, I promise to hear all your lectures after returning. Right now, I have to reach there," Monika said,
Monika Pov's .I was more shocked than Ryan after realising how boldly I confessed my love to him. I tried to run away, but he didn't let me go; instead, he pulled me closer to him. At that moment, all I wanted was to dig myself six feet underground.He smirked, enjoying my misery, and moved further closer to me, leaving hardly any space between him and me."Wh---what consequences?" I asked. He parted away from me a little and looked into my eyes."Why do you get nervous around me?" He asked. I kept my hand over his chest."I don't know... Maybe because you're too intimidating for me, and when you get close to me like this, I feel weak in my knees," I whispered. My heart skipped a beat and I got goosebumps all over my body when he encircled his hand around my waist."Don't worry; I said before I will never let you fall, Monika," he said, making my heart start beating at a higher speed. I hate how he controls the speed of my heart with his touch and words."I'm not talking about this
Ryan Pov's .The next day, after getting ready, I went directly to my office to work and learn about the casualties that happened because of the war. I remember our enemy's warriors had injured my warriors before I took over and killed them to save my people."Patrick, go and bring me the files that contain the details of the family of warriors who died at the border recently while trying to save us", I ordered him. He nodded and left.I sat on my office chair and opened my laptop. That's when Gloria entered my room, holding Monika's hand and closed my laptop."What was that?" I asked and raised my eyebrow, then looked at Monika, who was looking confused. I understood Gloria dragged Monika here without telling her the reason."How can you be so boring? You should go out with Monika and give her the tour of the pack, but look at you... Sitting in your office, working on your laptop like a grumpy" Gloria said. I rolled my eyes and then looked at Monika, who was laughing after keeping a
