“Damn! I know this man, but where!”Grace blinked her eyes twice. She was looking at the man behind Alpha Nelson; he looked so familiar.
Alpha Nelson strode into the scene, his presence commanding and bossy; everywhere went calm almost immediately.
Cindy, who was ranting, was also submissive now as he entered. His eyes were just directed at Cindy, who was sweating on her foreheads already.
Cindy was trembling in fear; the alpha-red eyes hovered all around her, making her look down in fear.
Like damn! Who could stand an Alpha aura? Not just that he was an Alpha; he was a very influential man and doesn’t take shit.
Just as Grace scratched her eyes and was trying to take a close look at the man who was in tow with Alpha Nelson a second ago, she noticed that he was nowhere to be found.
Just then her eyes knitted in confusion as she tried to search around to check if the familiar stranger was around.
“Are you okay, love?” Alpha Nelson’s voice made her jolt in fear as though he were a villain.
Taking in a deep breath, her head was trying to recall where she had seen that man. But she managed to respond to the Alpha. “Yes, Alpha, I am good.” She said it almost in a whisper.
He then faced Cindy now, “How dare you talk to my wife in such a manner, woman?” He yelled, his husky voice deadly.
Cindy just kept her face low; she was embarrassed, getting such a yell from Alpha Nelson, the man who she wanted just to be her’, all because of a trash Grace?
“You don’t dare next time! Apologize now.!” He yelled at Cindy, who immediately fell to her knee, her head on Grace’s foot.
“I am sorry, Grace.” She said her voice was mixed with fear, disdain, and anger.
Like what the fuck, Cindy was boiling as she did this; she just wishes Victor could come and do something quickly, but what could he do?
Alpha Nelson was more powerful than him; Victor couldn’t withstand him; it was totally impossible.
Grace felt a little bit elevated. In her entire life, she didn’t dream of being treated like a queen, not from Alpha Nelson; the marriage looks so real.
And again, she was smirking. Cindy, the big lady, the queen, the boss herself, the prideful, was kneeling before her pleading, huh!
Though she knew it was not a sincere apology, she was delighted. Now, Cindy would know her place.
“Hey woman! What do you mean by Grace? Don’t dare use her name; do yourself good by adding Luna to it.” Alpha Nelson sneered, the anger in his tone palpable.
Cindy was going crazy; she felt like strangling Grace; she felt like biting her foot, but what could she do?
Grace kept blushing; for some reason she told herself Alpha Nelson is the kind of man she wants for herself, but after recalling it was just a one-year contract marriage, she felt her stomach churn.
“My apology, my Luna; I am sorry.” Cindy said she was still on the floor.
The crowd didn’t dare talk or murmur within themselves; they just stood there as they watched the drama unfold.
On a normal day, what will Alpha Nelson be doing in such a small company?
Just that he came here for Grace, some people were really shocked seeing he did all this just because of Grace.
“On your feet and look at her face as you apologize.” He growled.
With hesitation, Cindy stood up, her face pale, her fist clenched; she was trying to suppress the damn furiousness that surged through her veins.
Her angry, light blue eyes pierced those of Grace’s dark green, beautiful, satisfied eyes.
With a stuttering tone, Cindy spoke, “I am sorry, my Luna.” As she spoke, she squeezed her toes, pinning them to the ground, evidence of how enraged she was.
Cindy’s speech made her want to go mad; she couldn’t believe herself spitting an apology to a low-class life.
“Apologies accepted; you better don’t do it again,” Grace said, her lips curving upward in a bad smirk.
“Great! This shouldn’t happen, never again! For the fact she is my wife, you fucking have to treat her respectfully.” Alpha Nelson warned, and with a one last deadly gaze, he took Grace’s hands and left with her, his surbinate following behind and the crowd staring at them till they were out of sight and were gone.
Grace waved to her friends as she left with Alpha Nelson; she could see in their eyes that they had thousands of questions to ask her, but she was sure with time they would understand everything perfectly.
But what would be her fate when the contract expired?
Embarrassed and filled with shame of the humiliation that had happened, Cindy couldn’t help but stamp her feet on the ground; she had just brought herself low on the low-class eyes.
Just for the mere dirt, a slut, and a gold digger! With the bitterness in her heart, she swallowed hard, her mind searching for a very loud revenge, and she was sure she would exact it.
“I hope you are okay. Sorry, I wasn’t there on time.” Alpha Nelson said to Grace as they got into his car.
“No, why? You don’t have to apologize; I can take care of myself.” Grace blushed; she couldn’t deny she was so shy when around him.
“And next time you allow anyone, or any nonentity, to speak to my wife in a way the lady just did in there, I will make sure you secure my wrath.” Alpha Nelson yelled at Subordinate his men.
“Yes Alpha.” The two men in his car responded, their voices bold, but the fear in it could be sensed.
“But Alpha, I stopped them from intruding in.”
Before Grace could finish his statement, Alpha Nelson chipped in, “Enough! Enough! That is my order to them, and they should do it regardless.”
Grace was really not comfortable with how overprotective he was, but she loved it. It made her feel loved and appreciated.
She just hummed and flipped her head to the window, looking at the outside, not wanting to say anything to him.
“Start the car now!” Alpha Nelson voiced.
“Yes Alpha.”
The man ignited the engine and drove skilfully, leaving the company premises.
“You have to start leaving with me; I will send a car soon; you have to park your important things; I will come pick you up by tomorrow.” Alpha Nelson said, and this made Grace yank her head in his direction.
Her eyebrows creased in surprise as she gave him a deep stare, not saying it, but he could see the question in them.
Like what the fuck! She was expecting this from him, but not this quick.
He was supposed to give her some time; all this was for her good, but it was also very hard.
“What?” She gasped as air caught in her throat.
“Yes, we are now legally married; you have no option, and again, I have a rule in this marriage and have to say something very important to you.” Alpha Nelson countered.
She swallowed hard.
What could that be? What was Alpha Nelson going to say? Her mom, will she agree to this marriage? Even if she doesn’t, she can’t do anything. The deal is done; her signature was in the contract deal…
Ouch! Grace is has a possessive contracted husband…
