THE CEO ALPHA KING (-Abducted-)
Writer’s P O V
Isaac got home to meet Kendrick eating Noddles at the sitting room. “Hey, you are back. How did it go?” Kendrick asked, dropping his bowl of Noddles.
“It went well. What do you think?” Isaac replied.
“Okay, the pills. Did they work?” Kendrick turned to him in question.
“It did suppress my wolf in pretty well. Thanks for that anyway,” Issac replied.
“So, I’m guessing you’re moving with the initial plan, right?”
“Yes, for now, I’ll continue with the initial plan. It doesn’t mean who won’t get what the slut deserves. It won’t be much fun if I end everything now,” Isaac said.
Kendrick chuckled. “You are becoming eviler as the day runs by.”
Isaac scoffed. “Evil? I’m just giving her a portion of the medicine. I need to sleep right now. No one should disturb me,” Isaac said as he walked in the direction of his room.
He walked into his room, took a bath then laid down on his bed. He picked up his phone and thought of calling Serena but dropped the phone. He doesn’t want to put her in trouble by contacting her.
Who knows, the king might be around her.

Serena returned to her room late in the night. She laid down on the bed to sleep, but sleep wasn’t forthcoming.
Granny Felicia had told someone to inform her that the king would be traveling out tomorrow and that she was to wake up early and help him with his preparation.
The thought of king Zed traveling made her happy and sad. Happy that she will be able to spend time with Martins and sad that she doesn’t exactly know why she is unhappy, but the feeling is just inside her.
She picked up her phone and set her alarm to 5 00 am. She thought of calling Isaac but decided to get some sleep. She dropped her phone and closed her eyes to sleep. Martin’s face popped into her head, and she smiled.
I now have a boyfriend- and the idea remained in her head.

Serena lazily opened her eyes when her alarm started shouting in unison. She groaned out in displeasure as she slowly crouched up on her bed. She rubbed her eyes, picked up her phone, and thought about the reason why she had set the alarm.
King Zed! Oh shit! I need to get to his chambers now, Serena suddenly remembered.
She got down from her bed, ran into the bathroom, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and repacked her hair before running out of her room. The hallway to the king’s chambers was quiet, but she summoned up the courage and continued walking until she got to his chambers. The guards, as usual, were standing guard there. They let her in without any questions.
Immediately she stepped into his room, and a familiar feeling overwhelmed her. She saw the king standing in front of his window like he always does.
“Good morning, Master,” she greeted as she bowed slightly.
“Go prepare my bath,” his tone wasn’t too hard or soft either.
Serena bowed again before rushing into the bathroom to prepare his bath. She came out after that.
“Master, your bath is ready,” she announced.
The king turned away from the window. He went to his closet and picked out a dress. He kept the shirt and the trouser he brought out on his bed, and he also picked out a muffler before pulling off his upper wear. Serena stood with her head bowed. She has learned never to look at him, especially when he is undressing.
She has also come to understand that king Zed doesn’t give a fück about who sees his nakedness. He doesn’t care, and she sometimes wonders why.
After undressing, he walked past her to the bathroom. “Master, do you need me in there?” Serena asked.
“I don’t.” King Zed answered.
Serena shifted uncomfortably on one foot. He is acting strangely, and she doesn’t know why.
King Zed came out from the bathroom, and he dressed himself up without asking for help. It made Serena feel more uneasy.
Why isn’t he asking me for anything? He always asked me to leave or to do something for him. He isn’t asking me either of them. What is wrong? Did I offend him in any way? Serena couldn’t help but wonder.
“While I’m gone,” King Zed started. Serena snapped her head up in his direction.
“I need you to always come inside my room and tidy it up. Do not ever step outside the first gate. Do you understand me?” King Zed ordered and asked.
“Y… yes master, I understand,” Serena answered.
“Don’t ever step out from my castle. That is an order, and you must not break it, else you’ll be punished severally.” King Zed added.
“Yes, master. I won’t. I will follow your order,” Serena gulped and said.
“And also be careful,” King Zed murmured, but due to her werewolf hearing, she heard him. Her heart flipped at his words.
“Are you… when are you going to be back, master?” She asked.
“Why?” King Zed asked.
“Forgive me. I was just inquisitive,” Serena lowered her head in reply. Everyone was reserved.
Ten minutes later, king Zed spoke up again.
“In three days at most.” He said.
Serena lifted her head to look at him. She thought he wasn’t going to answer, and he just surprised her by answering. She nodded.
“What did I ask you to do?” King Zed questioned.
“You asked me to tidy-”
“Not that,” King Zed cut her off.
“You asked me to remain here at your castle. You also asked that I’ll be more careful,” Serena answered. She almost giggled but held it in.
“I am asking you again. Be careful. If you aren’t careful enough, you’ll also be penalized,” King Zed stated.
Serena chuckled and quickly covered her mouth. Are you that worried that I would get hurt? It was at the tip of her tongue to ask, but she held it in.
“Yes, master. I understand,” Serena said, smiling softly.
“You can leave now.” King Zed waved for her to leave. She bowed again before leaving his room.
She got to her room and stopped, and she looked back towards the direction of the king’s chambers. What was that? Did king Zed show concern towards my safety, or did I imagine it? Serena asked herself. She opened her door room and entered, went straight to the bed to sleep again.

Serena opened her eyes when she heard her phone ringing. She picked up her phone and answered it.
“Hey! You couldn’t even call and tell me that King Zed is no longer at his castle.” Isaac scolded.
Serena cleared the sleep from her eyes and sat up. “Isaac? I’m so sorry. I was sleeping, and I fell asleep when I finished attending to him,” Serena mumbled.
“Did you sleep for how many hours? Do you know what time it is right now?” Isaac half yelled again.
“Oh, I don’t know,” Serena responded, shaking her head.
“It’s 1 30 pm. I’m sure you haven’t even eaten. Stand up, take your bath and find something to eat now. Stop starving yourself. Call me back after you’ve done that. I have some things to talk about with you,” Isaac ordered before cutting the call.
Serena sighed with her eyes closed. She stood up from the bed and showered, and changed into another dress before walking out of her room to the kitchen.
She didn’t go to the kitchen at the mini-mansion but the castle’s central kitchen. She knows servants barely go into that kitchen. She got to the kitchen and started preparing Potatoe portage.
After preparing it, she dished it into a plate, sat down on a stool there, and started eating it. Someone suddenly coughed from the kitchen’s entrance. Serena turned towards the doorway to see Martins.
“Hey,’ she said, standing up from the stool.
“You are eating without me. That is so unfair, you know,” Martins feigned annoyance as he walked closer to her.
“Uh… I… I…” Serena stuttered for words.
“It’s okay. I understand. You have been sleeping, I’ve been waiting for you to wake up, and now you are finally awake,” Martins said, smiling.
“Yes, I am,” Serena answered, lowering her head.
“I can see that, so how are you doing? Happy that king Zed is not going to bother us for three days?” Martins asked, taking another stool.
“Y… yes,” Serena answered, sitting down on her stool.
“I’m thrilled. We can leave the castle and return whenever we want for those three days,” Martins chuckled.
“I… I’m not allowed to leave the castle, Martins. King Zed instructed me to stay here until he returns,” Serena revealed.
“What? Did he say that? Geez, he is such a joy kill. Most of the servants, as I speak, are going on vacation and are going to return in three days. Why does he want you to stay back?” Martins said and asked.
“To tidy up his room,” Serena answered.
“What? You can’t be serious,” Martins scoffed.
“That’s what he said, and I can’t disobey him. I’m sorry, if you want to go on a vacation, it’s fine,” Serena mumbled.
Martins scoffed again before standing up. He brought out his phone and texted his father.
*Dad. There is a problem. I don’t know if king Zed got a whiff of the situation. He instructed S not to leave the castle until he got back. How am I supposed to get her to the hideout house if she won’t even follow me outside the gate?* Martins texted.
*You’ll have to get her out at all cost. It’s a rare opportunity. Drug her or do something else. Just make sure you get her out before nightfall.* A reply came.
Martins locked his phone, tucked it into his pocket, and sighed. What am I going to do with you, Serena? He wondered as he stared at her.
“Okay, I’ll be back. We can at least celebrate here, inside the king’s castle, right?” Martins asked.
Serena shook her head, feeling guilty for disappointing him.
“I’ll be back,” Martins said again.
He left and went into his room. He brought out a wine, cocked it open, and poured a liquid drug into it before shaking it.
He took out a white paper, poured out the white content from the report, and licked it before keeping the information back.
He took the wine to the castle’s kitchen, where Serena sat waiting for him. She has finished her meal and has washed the plate clean.
Martins showed up with the wine. “Bring two glasses,” Martins told her as he opened the wine.
Serena did as she said. She brought two wine glasses and gave them to him. He took the glasses and decanted wine into each glass cup.
“Let’s drink to our new relationship,” Martins said as he raised the cup.
Serena nodded, smiling softly at him. Martins gulped down a little quantity of the wine. Serena did the same.
They kept drinking and talking until Serena started feeling dizzy and sleepy. It was as if she hadn’t slept for years.
The glass cup fell off from her hand, she made to fall to the floor, but Martins was quick to catch her before she fell to the floor.
He carried her over his shoulders, not bothered by the cameras around the castle. He knows the CCTV room is empty. Those people there have all gone on vacation, and he knows that no one is watching him currently.
He went to the car he moved within the castle. I kept Serena at the backside before starting the vehicle.
He drove out from the castle. The guards there didn’t bother interrogating him, they all thought he was going for a vacation like everyone else, and they didn’t see Serena at the backside either.
He drove to the place he parked his car. He came down from the vehicle he was going to, took Serena with him to his car before moving to a hideout house where no one could easily find him.
