Contracted to the Wrong Alpha
Chapter 15
Lex’s Pov
I would give her accolades for her feistiness, she looked hot with fury at the mere sight of my presence and my insides stirred with displeasure.
I had no fucking right to feel that way but I couldn’t help it.
I hated the hatred in her eyes and the tears that slipped down from her delicate face but I shoved that aside and walked outside to my office, seeing my younger brother waiting for me
“How is she?” He asked casually, resting his head on the table with the back of his palms and I shrugged.
“She survived it, why are you here?”
“Excuse me? Can’t I see my brother anymore? Besides, I heard you might be getting married to Isabella and-”
I cut him off, shaking my head.
“I’m not, it’s not going to happen,” I told him and he frowned, raising his hands as if in surrender as my tone changed.
“Okay, I’ve heard. The Blue Moon is fast approaching and I’m afraid of the worst this time around.”
He said Sincerely and my heart accelerated in dread. He’s right. Blue Moon Ritual comes with a lot of unfortunate incidents when it was supposed to be pure.
I could be rejected as the Alpha, someone might become a rogue, a curse could befall anyone, and blessings might follow too depending on what’s going to happen.
I nodded at him and I sighed in frustration, disliking the nauseating feeling that was piling up. I had to be very careful with everything, to make it perfect before the moon goddess as Alveria won’t hesitate to point out a fault.
“Can you check on Lilia for me? Something tells me she might disappear and render me useless again.” I told him sincerely and a mischievous grin appeared at the corner of his mouth making me shake my head in disapproval.
“Don’t try anything messy Felix, she’s off limits for now, and my Luna. Take your horny-possessed self and go fuck someone else.” I told him and he was up on his feet.
“Got it, Alpha.” He mocked and I rolled my eyes and chuckled, watching him retrace his steps outside.
I love my brother to infinity, he’s the only person that made me feel what it feels like to have a family.
An epitome of beauty to make girls go Crazy and also smart in contributing immensely to the Pack’s company. The only issue I had with him was his whorish dick that couldn’t be tucked tightly into his pants.
I trust him enough not to try anything messy with Lilia, he loves me too much for that.
Peradventure he gets friendly for her to be relaxed but right now, I need to look for the mother fucker that leaked Lilia’s sex tape.
I can’t wait for him to be done with College this year so I’ll give him part of the company’s Annex to him to manage.
While rallying around to keep things in the pack and the Parliament, I’ll have him look after Lilia. If she could run on our wedding day there’s nothing else she won’t be able to do. How Raven had reached the airport in a flash and caught hold of her quickly was nothing surprising. I know what he is and it dies with me alone.
Calling Raven over, I made a few calls to the Pack’s PR team and other mass media companies in affiliates to Midnight Shades and the ones in New York to take down the video in the next few hours.
It wasn’t a threat nor was it an order, it was something they needed to do if they didn’t want their company to crumble down to dust.
“You called.” He said curtly and I nodded.
“Look into Lilia’s data, the last person she dated, and her current company.”
Raven frowned at me which got me stunned. He rarely expresses himself, Damn! This beta of mine is a stone so when he does the unthinkable, I’m always taken aback in amusement.
“You’re interested in this lady.” He said, not asking but stating it as a matter of fact and I scoffed.
“I’m not Raven, I’m just trying to clear some dirty scandals to fit into the Pack. She’s going to be my Luna.”
He remained impassive for a moment and cocked his head.
“Before all this, you were talking about merging White Crisp Pack with Midnight Shade because of their Barbaric law of having to wait annually before they have access to other countries.” He reminded me and I let out a soft breath, before listening to his next words.
” And this would be hard because Jax won’t concede but it would skyrocket the Pack globally in Finance, Influence, and alliance in other countries once it’s merged. It’s a whole lot of work to do Alpha.”
“I’m still on it Rave, I Just”
My voice trailed, failing to give an exact explanation as to why I was busy interested in finding out about Lilia instead of the pack.
“Fine! ” I stood up, letting go of what I said earlier.
“Let it be then, don’t look for anything. You’re right, I’m getting distracted and I need to focus.” I tell him sincerely since he’s the only one I can be real with. He respects the shit out of me but he never fails to talk to me when I’m doing it all wrong.
“I’m not stopping you from doing what you want, Alpha, I’m just reminding you that you’re not ready to face what would come when you reveal your true self to her.”
Again, he reminded me.
“I’m not going to fall for her dummy! It’s not happening and I’m not revealing shit” I growled and seethed at him as his words hit me hard, jerking me off to face reality at the possibility of what he said.
“I know but you-” I cut him off.
“Shut the fuck up and get out Raven!” I growled at him, now feeling restless.
“And.. don’t…ever fucking remind me about my shit again!” I used the Alpha tone on him and he nodded, bowing in apologies before leaving.
The fear that overwhelmed me was Primal, I shouldn’t be scared of my inner demons and secrets I harbor but I am right now.
The hair on my neck stood mixing my messed up emotions into rumpled clots as I felt her presence and her smell behind me. I whipped my head sharply to see Lilia right by the door. Her golden brown hair was packed upwards in a bun and the tendril curl fell down her eyes. Those hazel eyes that had looked dreamy when we’
‘Shit Lex! Fucking focus and stop thinking shit.’ I growled at myself but my wolf was making it hard, drinking all her scent in as if she was the wine he had been starving for all along.
She looked so scared and I wondered what would have happened again. Didn’t Felix watch her as I had instructed?
She wiped her tears angrily and began to speak.
“Can we make a deal?” She asked me and I raised my brows, not saying a word to her and she continued.
“I signed the document naively and I messed up on the wedding day, I know you ride on a gold horse and don’t give a two fuck about anyone but can you please come down from this horse and do me a request of letting me stay on my own. I don’t want your brother around me. I don’t want to be around you. We would get married and act like a couple to the public but I need my space, my fashion line back and”
“That’s not happening!” I cut her off before she finished.
“Then the contract would be off!” She almost cried in frustration. ” I’ll pay any amount to compensate and” I chuckled.
“Do you think you can compete with me right now?”
“I’m not competing!” She screamed and I squinted my brows at her.
“Then what’s the show about finance all about?” I asked her as I watched her shoulders drop.
“I’m not displaying anything, I just can’t stand being with you and your brother, inhaling some wicked foul smell in my nostrils for the next six months.”
She said every word with Venom and Xander growled.
Not only him, but I felt something sharp tore through my heart at the intensity of how this girl hates me. She’s bold.
Fuck! Who cares?
I shouldn’t care but I’m fucking pissed.
‘ SHE SHOULDN’T HATE US LEX! DO SOMETHING.’
Xander stupidly said and I cut the mindlink away from him before he uttered something foolish again.
“Why are you against my brother so much?” I couldn’t help but ask her and I could see her wolf surging through her eyes as if to wipe my existence away.
“It’s my rules Lilia and not yours, you became mine the moment you signed that paper and you have no right to tell me what to do. And now you will go back inside, sleep, and get prepared for tomorrow without any complaints.”
I ordered her and she flinched.
“Are we ever going back to New York?” She asked and I didn’t reply to her but tried so hard not to pin her to the wall to shut her mouth.
“Get out!” I fired a loud scary order that made her eyes glint more with fury. She’s a distraction, I don’t know how she does that but she’s too beautiful to be ignored. She’s not my mate yet I feel disturbed at her presence, her red tank shorts that displayed her milky fair lap to my eyes and her neck which was all sexy to the eyes.
That was her sensitive spot if I could remember clearly, her fingers had gripped the flesh of my skin sending sparks of pain and pleasure as I sucked her there. With every thrust that earned a sweet moan from her lips.
“GET THE FUCK OUT LILIA!” I growled, feeling my cock harden uncomfortably and she snared, her eyes sheened with tears as she walked out with her ass jiggling at every move and I cursed out loud.
“What the fuck is wrong with me!” I growled, imagining how the next day at the Blue Moon Ritual would be. I’ll be sitting right near her.
