Finally, it was the weekend.

The day I had been waiting for all week had finally arrived. Kiara was coming over for the group project, and for some reason, I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

Ever since Jasmine suggested that Kiara might be connected to the mystery surrounding K, I had been looking forward to this day.

This would be the first time I would have hours to observe her closely without school getting in the way. It was the perfect opportunity to learn more about her. At least, that

  • Rejected by my mate, Claimed by Alpha Ryder   CHAPTER 225

    "I don't know what you're talking about!" Kiara shouted, her voice shaking as she pulled her wrist out of my grip.She quickly stood up, her chair scraping loudly against the floor."Kiara, wait!" I stood up, my heart pounding against my ribs. "What do you gain from all of this? The lies, the secrets? Just tell me the truth!"She didn't answer. She scrambled, throwing her books and phone into her bag with shaking hands.It looked less like someone leaving a study session and more like someone trying to escape.“Jasmine, I… I can’t do this. We can finish the project another time,” she said, her eyes filling with tears.Before anyone could stop her, she turned and ran toward the library door.I didn’t stop to think.I just reacted.I ran after her and caught up to her in the hallway.I gently held her shoulders, turned her to face me, and pulled her into a tight hug.“Kiara, look at me,” I whispered, my voice shaking with emotion.“I have this feeling deep inside me. My heart is telling

    Kiara quickly climbed off me, almost losing her balance in the process. She stood up, straightened her clothes, and looked around the library, her face burning bright red.Marcus scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed smile.“Uh… false alarm,” he said awkwardly. “Sorry, everyone. I thought I saw a huge bug, but it was just a shadow.”I stayed on the floor for another second, unable to take my eyes off Kiara.She was nervously biting her lower lip, avoiding my gaze as she fidgeted with her fingers. Her cheeks were still flushed, and somehow, she looked even cuter than before.A small smile tugged at my lips, but I quickly hid it.I stood up, dusted off my jeans, and stepped a little closer to her.“Are you okay?” I asked."Yeah, I’m fine," Kiara muttered, looking anywhere but at me. "I’m sorry about that. I just... I really, really hate bugs."She’s terrified of bugs. Just like K.The thought hit me like a physical punch. I stood there, completely lost in my own head as the

Ever since Jasmine suggested that Kiara might be connected to the mystery surrounding K, I had been looking forward to this day. This would be the first time I would have hours to observe her closely without school getting in the way. It was the perfect opportunity to learn more about her. At least, that was what I kept telling myself.After taking a shower, I stood in front of my closet staring at my clothes. I had already changed my mind at least five times. Every shirt suddenly looked wrong. I tossed them one after another onto my bed until the entire mattress was covered.Frustrated, I ran a hand through my damp hair.“Why do all my clothes suddenly look terrible?” I muttered.I groaned and threw it back onto the bed.Why was choosing a shirt suddenly so difficult?It wasn’t like I was try

    “Hey, man, you’ve been really quiet since you got back from school,” Gab said.He walked over to my bed and sat down beside me, gently taking my hand and giving it a supportive squeeze.“You know you can tell me anything, right?” he said, looking straight into my eyes. “We’re brothers.”Without saying another word, he pulled me into a tight hug.I buried my face against his shoulder. I tried to hold back the tears, but they kept coming. Gab held me closer.“Trust me,” he said gently. “Once you say it out loud, you’ll feel a lot better.”I took a deep, shaky breath. My heart pounded against my ribs as I prepared to face the truth.“Gab…” I began, my voice barely a whisper. “The K I’ve been talking to wasn’t the real K.”Gab’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean?”I looked down at my trembling hands. “I was talking to the wrong person the whole time.”Gab’s eyes widened in pure shock. “Oh my God,” he breathed. “Do you know who the real K is? Have you found her?”I slowly shook my head. “No

    ~ Jason ~I stepped out of the classroom, but my eyes instantly locked onto two people. Down the corridor, Kendra was aggressively dragging Kiara by the arm toward the locker area.What are they talking about?I kept my distance, hiding among the students as I watched them. They remained by the lockers for what felt like forever, speaking in hushed tones. Slowly, I moved closer, weaving through the crowd without drawing attention to myself. With every step, Kendra’s voice grew clearer, its sharp, venomous edge impossible to miss."Now that you finally know the truth, here is how things are going to go," Kendra hissed, her face twisted in a ugly smirk."You are going to completely avoid Jason. No talking, no looking at him. And you are going to switch project groups with me immediately. We are exchanging places."I stopped in my tracks. Kiara was staring down at her phone screen, her hands shaking violently as heavy tears rolled down her pale face. She looked completely broken. What

    ~ Kiara ~"Kiara! We need to talk. Right now."Kendra shouted from behind me. I stopped walking, closing my eyes for a brief second to gather my patience before turning around to face her."What is it this time?" I asked, not bothering to hide the deep irritation in my voice.Instead of answering, Kendra grabbed my upper arm. Her grip was tight as she dragged me away from the main hallway, pulling me into the empty locker area."Why didn't you tell me about the bracelet?!" she hissed, her face flushed with anger.I wrenched my arm out of her grasp, smoothing down my clothes. "Why should I have? How was I supposed to know a piece of jewelry would cause an absolute meltdown? Besides, it wasn't part of our agreement for me to disclose every single detail of my life to you."Kendra folded her arms tightly over her chest, stepping into my personal space. "You did that on purpose. You intentionally let them see it so Jason would find out that you are the real 'K'."I let out a sharp, humor

    ~ Dorathy ~ I smoothed my dress, my hands trembling slightly, though I fought to keep my expression cold and unreadable.“What do you want to say to me, Charles?” I asked, my voice colder than I intended. I glanced at the watch on my wrist, the ticking sound reminding me there was no mor

    Blade threw another stone into the water, but this time it didn’t feel playful. His arm around me was tighter than before, like he was holding something fragile he was afraid to lose.“You remember when I told you I loved someone” Blade said slowly. “But she got claimed by someone more powerf

    CHAPTER 127“I’m talking to both of you,” Ms. D said sharply, pointing at Doris and me. “You both knew about this?”I exchanged a brief look with Doris before finally speaking.“Yes,” I admitted quietly. “We’ve known for a while now.”Shock flashed across Ms. D’s face again.“
