Ruin Me, Alpha: Breaking The Enemy's Daughter 44
LeahThe world came back in fragments.Pain. Sharp and blinding, radiating from my head where it had cracked against the wall. The metallic taste of blood coating my tongue. The sound of my own ragged breathing, too loud in my ears.And Luciana's laughter. Cold, crystalline, triumphant."Look at you," she purred, her voice dripping with venom as my vision slowly cleared. "The precious Alpha Princess, bleeding on the floor of her own home. How the mighty have fallen."I tried to push myself up, but the servants held me down, their grips iron-tight on my arms. My head throbbed, and I could feel warm blood trickling from my nose, dripping onto the pristine white floor of what used to be my mother's dining room.Luciana crouched before me, her beautiful face twisted with malicious glee. She grabbed my chin roughly, forcing me to look at her."Did you really think you could replace me?" she hissed. "Did you think that mark on your thigh made you special? Made you worthy?"Through the pain

I ended up in the gardens. The same gardens where Ares had found me after the council meeting, where he'd first started breaking down my walls. I sank onto a stone bench and buried my face in my hands. How had I been so stupid? So blind? All those moments, the cabin, the wolves, the way he'd looked at me in the chapel, I'd thought they meant something. I'd thought he was changing. That we were changing. But it was all a lie. A manipulation. A game. And I'd played right into his hands like the naive fool I was. The pain in my chest wasn't just heartbreak. It was humiliation. It was the sickening realization that every tender moment, every whispered word, every gentle touch had been calculated. Weaponized. I'd handed him my heart and he'd used it to stab my father. "There you are." I looked up to find Julius standing at the entrance to the gardens. But this wasn't the Julius I knew. His face was a mask of cold fury, his eyes glittering with something dark and dangerous. His hand

But he didn't die.The blade glowed brighter for a moment, then dimmed. My father slumped forward, bleeding, wounded, but still breathing. Still alive.I couldn't process it. Couldn't understand. My father was alive. He was hurt, bleeding, but alive.Ares stared at the blade in his hand, confusion flickering across his face. "What—""It didn't work," Julius said, moving forward with poorly concealed satisfaction. "The blade isn't activated properly.""But I saw—" Ares looked at me, and for the first time since we returned, I saw real emotion in his eyes. Shock. Confusion. "The blood activated it. The moonlight—""Apparently not well enough," Luciana purred from her throne. "How unfortunate."My father coughed blood, his body shaking, but his eyes never left Ares's face. "You stupid boy," he rasped. "You really thought it would be that easy?"Ares yanked the blade free, and my father crumpled to the ground. Guards surrounded him, checking his wounds, but he was still breathing. Still a

The journey back took two days. Two days where Ares barely spoke to me. Two days where he kept distance between us, his face carved from stone, his emotions locked down so tight I felt nothing through the bond.It was like that moment in the chapel had never happened. Like his kiss, his promise, had been a dream I'd imagined.My chest ached every time I looked at him. Every time I tried to reach through the bond and felt nothing but emptiness."Ares," I tried on the second day, catching his arm. My fingers trembled against his skin. "Talk to me. Please."He pulled away from my touch like I'd burned him. "Not now, Leah. We need to keep moving."The rejection stung worse than a slap. "But you said—""I know what I said." His voice was cold, flat. Dead. "Things are different now. We're going back to reality. To the castle. To everything waiting for us there."My throat tightened. No. This couldn't be happening. Not after everything. Not after he'd held me, kissed me, made me believe—"So
