Semua Bab My Alpha, My Mate, My Ruin.: Bab 151 - Bab 160

Betsy's POVWith food in front of me, I sat by myself in the cafeteria but did not really feel hungry.It has been like that quite a lot lately.Something has been lacking ever since Caroline stopped attending class. Even if we did not always spend all our time together, I had gotten used to spotting her. Knowing she was there had given the school a little less weighty feeling. Her seat in class remained vacant, and every day that passed without her, I felt the void even more.I found myself missing her.Peter had also been away in his own way. He was still here, though not the same as previously. He had lately devoted almost all of his spare time to the library. He said his mother had tasked him to study more about being a hybrid and grasp the environment that came with it. Though he had complained slightly the first day, he told me that, following that, he seemed to take it seriously.That left me here. By oneself.I let out a faint breath as I poked at the food on my tray.As I was

Betsy’s POVI did not wait to think.My legs moved across the corridor and down the open path toward the pool area. Already assembling, students made more noise the closer I got. Some of those people were choking with laughter. Some were screaming. Some just stood there, staring as though they were watching some kind of movie.I pushed my way through the crowdVivian had dragged Harmony to the pool.Her hands were trying to push Vivian away, and Harmony was struggling badly, her hair was damp and sticking to her face. Vivian was stronger and was holding her down too forcefully. Only to sink Harmony's head into the water and then pull it back, she continued pushing.Everything within me ignited at once.With all the force I possessed, I seized Vivian and pulled her away from Harmony.“Stay away from her”, I shouted.Behind me, Harmony coughed harshly, leaning forward, she was fighting to breathe well. Her friends around eventually hurried to assist her, but my complete focus remained o

Drake’s POVI didn’t want to keep her there any longer.She needed more attention.I assisted her to sit up gently, encircling one arm around her to support her weight. She leaned on me, which alone showed me how tired she was.“I'm taking you to the sick bay,” I said to her.She made no objections. That was uncommon.Usually, Betsy would argue, say she was alright, and try to seem strong even when she was not. She just nodded lightly this time and let me help her rise.I moved her out of the room with her arm around my shoulder. We moved down the hallway slowly. I made sure I didn't rush, even when she tried to move a little quicker.“Slow down”, I said to her.“I am fine,” she said gently.I shook my head. “No, you’re not.”She avoided debating once more.We met the nurse immediately we got to the sick bay. The nurse asked a few questions and examined her eyes and pulse. She helped me settle Betsy on one of the beds.Standing nearby, I watched how she was being attended to.“She nee

Betsy's POVI was utterly tired by the time we returned home that day.Not only tired, but my thoughts were also more sluggish than normal, and my body hurt in a way I couldn't completely justify. I could not process anything from earlier; everything kept spinning around in my head.I walked slowly to my room, and I headed straight to my bed. As I lay down, I let out a sigh. Drake was still following me around.He remained nearby, standing for a brief period as if to guarantee I would not suddenly collapse once more.“I'm fine,” I told him as I looked up at him, my voice calm but stronger.He waited before replying. Instead, he removed his jacket and flung it on the chair before turning to face me.“I did not say you weren't fine”, he said in a calm tone. I relaxed my body, leaning back slightly, and softly exhaled.“You don't have to stay.” “I'll be fine on my own”, I said as I looked at his face.He simply looked at me for a while, as though he was thinking of something.“I'll st

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
