Chapter 169 Hundred And Sixty Nine

• ARIELS POV.
• My hands won’t stop shaking as I drive. The wheel trembles under my grip, not from the car and I can hardly see past the blur of tears burning in my eyes. The road in front of me twists and swims.
• Once, twice, I swerve out of lane, the blare of a horn jolting me back as I slam on the brakes, chest heaving, heart hammering loud enough to drown everything else. I curse under my breath, biting down so hard on my lip that I taste iron, but nothing helps. All I can think of is Ryan’s face when Derek told me he’d been hurt. Ryan… my Alpha, my mate, the man I’ve tried to hate, the man who has broken me in a thousand ways, yet still drags every piece of me back to him.
