“Are you just going to stand there all day or you gonna train?” He asked like he wasn’t the person who left me there.
I couldn’t hide my embarrassment.
My eyes met with that of Meredith.
I could do nothing but pray she doesn’t die of too much anger cause her face is red from too much anger.
I hastily walked towards the Alpha. “You’re asking like you weren’t the one who left me there” I said again before I could realize.
What’s wrong with me, I’ve been talking much these days.
He lifts his sword to the reflection of the sun. For a moment I thought he was going to cut off my throat.
“What are you trying to do? One could hear the fear in my voice.
“Kill you? He chuckled.
This is the third time I’ve seen him smile.
The training started and I tried as much as I could to keep up to his pace.
“You’re being slow, you have to know your enemy’s next move and strike before they do” he said flinging his sword.
That statement actually made me remembered Anna and Meredith.
After the training I ran to my bathroom to take a shower as I couldn’t keep up with the sweat on my body.
As soon as walked out of the bathroom, someone knocked on the door.
“Who is there?”
“It’s me Anna”.
What does this devil want again.
“Give me some second”.
“Okay”.
After dressing up, I opened the door and there she was holding a tray.
“What’s that?”
“Oh, I prepared chicken nuggets, so I thought of bringing some for you
“That’s so nice of you, the aroma is so captivating that I can feel myself salivating, I definitely know it’s gonna be yummy” I commented collecting the tray of food from her.
“Can you taste it and tell me how it is? She asked some what impatiently.
“Sure but why don’t we eat together? I asked dragging her inside.
“I’d love to but I’ve eaten mine and that’s why I brought yours”
“You came a bit late cause I just finished eating my hamburger. But I will eat this later” I assured her.
“Okay but make sure you eat this and call me after eating so that I can take back the plates”.
“Okay, I will do something”.
“See you later” she smiled walking out.
Is this how fast she wanna kill me? Well I’m indestructible.
“Are you gonna eat that? Xina asked.
“No, I’m gonna throw it away. Stop asking silly questions”.
I ran to the bathroom and emptied all the content before pressing the flusher to take everything away.
I laid on my bed getting ready to sleep when the knock on the door drove away the little sleep in my eyes.
“Hey, Message open the door” Anna called from the outside.
Is she that impatient? Can she wait for me to die slowly before coming.
“Nessa, are you in there? She called out again.
“Yes, I’m coming” I opened the door for her to come in. I held my stomach groaning as hard as I could, I don’t even know if the food is poisoned but I got this feeling that she poisoned it.
“What’s wrong, Nessa?”
“My sto… ma.. ch, i can’t breath properly” I asked groaning as hard as I could, I really need to make this acting look real.
“What’s wrong with your stomach? Did you take anything?”
“No, just the chicken nuggets you brought” I groaned harder. For a moment I saw her smile.
“Well, that’s what you get for trying to steal the Alpha from my sister” she laughed wickedly.
“What are you talking about?”
“Meredith is my sister and she’s in love with the Alpha until you came and tried to steal him away from her”. She kicked me hard on the stomach. If I wasn’t acting, I’d kick the hell out of her.
“I’m sorry, please forgive and take me to the pack clinic, I’m dying” I cried trying to reach her hand but she pushed me instead.
“That’s what I want, for you to die” she went to where the plates was and took them away.
“Rest in peace” she muttered before stepping out.
I quickly got up from the floor. I couldn’t stop myself from wondering.
“If I had eaten that chicken nuggets, I’d be dead by now. Wow Anna”.
I heard multiple foot steps approaching towards my room, before I could now what was happening, my door was pushed open, with the Alpha walking in followed by Anna and few pack members.
“Nessa” he called engulfing me into a very tight hug.
“What happened? Why are you all in my room?”
“B… u.. But you are dead” Anna stuttered.
I could see the shock in her face mixed with fear.
“Me? When? How did I die? Are you sure you’re okay?” I asked her.
“Yes, I saw you just now, you were laying dead on the floor”.
“No, I’m not dead, maybe you had a nightmare, as you can see I’m alive” I said turning around for her to see
All eyes were on I and Anna, but the Alpha eyes were solemnly on me like I was gonna vanish if he should look else where.
“I’m fine, you all can go back, there’s nothing wrong with me and I’m not dead” I said leaving the door wide open for them to leave.
They all left leaving just me and the Alpha behind.
“Are you sure you’re alright?” He asked with concern in his voice.
“I’m definitely fine”.
He walked up to me holding both of my hands in his while squeezing them softly.
“Why do I feel like you’re hiding something. If there’s something bothering you why don’t you tell me, I might be of help” he said tenderly.
“I just told you there is nothing wrong, can you leave now I need to think”.
For a moment I could see the flash of pain in his eyes. But soon there were all gone and replaced with a cold stare.
He let go of my hands and walked out but before he could walk further, I asked him the question which has been bothering me.
“Why are you wearing a mask?”
He turned and eyed me briefly without saying anything. He walked away.
“That was so rude”.
I hopped back into my bed and plugged in my earphone before dozing of.
“Who are you?” I asked the man with a mask.
“You don’t need to know”.
“What are you doing in my room? Who sent you?”
Before I could realize he was already standing in my front, looking at me with those green eyes of his. Realization struck me. “He’s the Alpha, but what is he doing in my room at this time of the night.
He was very close to me, His breath fanning on my face making the moment tensed.
Before I could say Jack, my clothes were already at the floor.
My wrist held in his palms were like roses being rubbed on my skin, twisting it gently behind my back back that aches for him, he wrote symphonies of love and poetry of devotion on my body. The pain that i experience for a moment was like death to him, yet how can I convey him to my soulmate that the pleasure and love he showered me was something I could even die for and would reincarnate again just to be by his side.
