All Chapters of My Alpha, My Ruin: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Instead of answering, I reached my hand back between our bodies and cupped him through his shorts, stroking the hard length of him and enjoying the way his breath hitched in his throat."Fuck," he groaned, his hips involuntarily pushing into my touch, seeking more friction. "Baby, you don't have to do this. I know you just had a nightmare and—""I want to," I interrupted, continuing my stroking with more confidence now, feeling him grow even harder beneath my palm. "I want to feel something good instead of scared. I want to feel alive. I want to feel you. Please, Zayne."His control finally snapped.In one fluid motion, he rolled me onto my back and captured my mouth in a searing kiss, all the careful restraint he'd been showing evaporating in an instant. His tongue swept into my mouth, claiming me, tasting me, making me whimper with need.His hands began exploring my body with reverent touches, sliding under my pajama top to cup my breasts. The feeling of his calloused palms against

Gabriel's POVI was still running in my wolf form, pushing myself harder and faster through the dark forest surrounding the safe house.The wind whipped through my fur, cool and cleansing against my overheated skin. My paws pounded against the earth in a steady rhythm that slowly began to clear my head of the chaos swirling inside it.Out here, I could almost forget. Forget the sound of Amara's pleasure echoing through the house. Forget the disgusted look on my own face reflected in Azumi's eyes after we'd finished. Forget the crushing weight of knowing I'd destroyed the best thing that had ever happened to me through my own arrogance and stupidity.Out here, I was just a wolf running through the night. No complications, no regrets, no consequences.I ran for what felt like hours, letting my wolf take control, letting instinct guide me through the trees and across streams. My muscles burned with exertion, my lungs working overtime to keep up with the pace I was setting.Finally, when

Amara's POVI couldn't believe what I was hearing. The words didn't make sense, couldn't be real.I stood up so abruptly from my chair that it scraped loudly against the floor. "Is this a joke?" I demanded, staring at Gabriel with desperation in my eyes. "Tell me this is some kind of sick joke.""Unfortunately, no," Gabriel said heavily. "It's not a joke. I called the hospital directly and confirmed it myself. The Hunters broke in last night and took her."I felt like the floor had dropped out from beneath me. My legs went weak and I had to grip the edge of the table to stay upright."How did this happen?" I asked, my voice rising with panic and fury. "You promised me she was safe! You swore to me that people were protecting her, that she was being guarded!"Tears were streaming down my face now. "You said everything was fine, that no one could get to her! How could you let this happen?!"Gabriel flinched at my words but didn't defend himself. "I'm sorry. I thought the security was ad

Amara's POVThe next day, I woke up still feeling the heavy weight of sadness about my mother's abduction. But I decided I couldn't let myself spiral into despair. I needed to approach the day with a more positive mindset, or at least try to. Sitting around crying and feeling helpless wasn't going to save her.I quietly slipped out of bed, careful not to wake Zayne who was still sleeping peacefully, his face relaxed and beautiful in the soft morning light. I wanted to do something nice for him—he'd been my rock through all of this chaos, and I wanted to show him how much I appreciated it.So I headed downstairs to the kitchen and started making breakfast. Nothing too fancy, just eggs, bacon, toast, and fresh coffee. But I put care into it, trying to make everything perfect.I was standing at the stove flipping eggs when I heard footsteps behind me. Before I could turn around, strong arms wrapped around my waist and Zayne's chest pressed against my back."Whatever the hell you're cooki

Later that night, I was sitting alone in my room waiting for Zayne, who had gone out earlier to get some firewood for the fireplace. The house was quiet, almost eerily so, and I found myself anxiously checking my phone every few minutes.When it finally buzzed with a new message, my heart jumped into my throat.It was from the same unknown number.I grabbed the phone immediately and opened the text.Unknown: Hello, Emerald Wolf.My fingers flew across the keyboard as I furiously typed back.Me: Who the hell are you?! Tell me right now!The three dots appeared, showing they were typing. I waited, my heart pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears.Unknown: Like I said before, who I am is not important at the moment. But I have something critical to tell you. Something you need to know immediately.Unknown: I'm with your mother as we speak.My breath caught in my throat. I sat up straighter, my entire body going rigid with tension.Unknown: She's in very critical condition. The Hunter
