Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Read Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 234 – Marabella POV

I didn’t want to dance, but Jonah pulled me over to the dancefloor anyway; I cou1dn’t dance to save my life. “What’s wrong?” Jonah asks, and I shake my head, not wanting to draw attention to the fact Kyan was glaring at him. I had managed to ignore him all night, but I could feel his gaze boring into us; the room felt suffocating with his presence despite its size.

I nod toward Rose, who had been pulled away from Casen by some man. Jonah rolls his eyes at his sister while Casen looks as though he is about to tear the man to shreds.

“Casen will sort it,” Jonah says, tugging me closer, I could feel the buzz in the room, and I glance at Kyan over Jonah’s shoulder.

“Maybe we should go sit down; Kyan keeps glaring at us, I don’t want to upset him”

“He will get over it. Besides, Kaif said he was planning on rejecting you anyway. Why care what he thinks?” Jonah says his words a growl. I chew my lip worriedly; that didn’t mean we should upset him.

“Mara, stop just ignore him until he pulls his head out of his a*s, he needs to man up or just get it over with,”

“Get what over with, rejecting me?” I snap at him.

“I have not once denied my feelings for you, and kyan knows how I feel about you, “

“Yes, but what if he doesn’t reject me, Jonah, we can’t just, “

“Can’t what? Be together?” I nod.

“I know you want Kyan, and I am fine sharing, but if you don’t want this, Marabella, let me know now because I am done with waiting on Kyan to make his mind up.”

“I do want to be with you, I always have, but Kyan- ” My words are cut off by his lips crashing against my own. I gasp, shocked at his display in front of Kyan when he tugs me closer, deepening the kiss. I push on his chest.

“Jonah, ” I mumble around his lips.

“He needs to either accept it or let you go, Mara. I am done waiting for his approval, and you should be too,” Jonah says when suddenly yelling starts up behind us. I glance over my shoulder to see Casen punch the man Rose was dancing with.

“Oh, for fcks sake, ” Jonah mutters.

“Stay here, I will be back, ” Jonah says us leaving me on the dancefloor while he makes his way over to Casen and Rose to break up the fight. I sigh about to go back to the bar and get a drink, only stopping when I see Kyan and the woman from earlier with her hands all over him.

My stomach drops when I see his hand on her hip. He tugs her closer, and the woman giggles when my heart sinks, plunging somewhere deep and shriveling up when he grabs her before kissing her. Pain radiates through me, and I take a step back as bile rises in my throat.

I felt like I was going to be sick, yet I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the woman as her hands roamed over his chest, tugging him closer when Kyan grabbed her a*s, and she was practically straddling his lap. Kora growls, but it turns to a whimpered sob, and I clutch my chest.

I couldn’t catch my breath, couldn’t tear my eyes away from them, yet I needed to move when I felt Kora lurch forward. My fear from the other night comes back, and I take off, running for the doors leading out of the room.

“Kora, stop, ” I begged her as tears burned my eyes as I tried to find the elevator to go to Jonah’s apartment, people stared and I felt my face heat with embarrassment that all these people and their judging eyes stared at me.

I must look pathetic running through the halls crying over someone that clearly doesn’t want me. Getting to the next floor, I finally find an elevator before noticing a security guard. I stop, tapping him on the shoulder, and he sniffs the air.

“You okay, Love?” He asks and I can barely speak when the pain suddenly stops.
