Contracted to the Wrong Alpha
Chapter 34
****
Lilia’s Pov
Lee growled within me and it took every self-control in me not to grab Tessy and throw her over the pool. She was stunning in a black silver dress but all I could see was a reincarnation of Jezebel.
“I…I need to go Melody.” I whispered to her and turned to take my leave immediately as my mood was ruined by merely seeing her and knowing that she was related to my PA.
Why didn’t I notice the resemblance? Melody’s family just struck me to be Influential but I knew nothing about their background and Pack.
“Why the fuck is she here Melody?” Tessy snapped, standing up to take some steps further so that she could face me.
“That’s rude Tess, she’s my”
“She’s a slut! A boyfriend snatcher and a white curse!” She yelled, grabbing the attention of other people who sneered at her. I was in disagreement but she didn’t care. Her Crazy attitude was already taking over her and I wasn’t ready to exchange words with her, not now or ever. I tried to leave but she yanked me back harshly.
“Are you trying to run away from the truth Lilia? You think being stuck up in that mansion would hide the truth of who you truly are?”
“I don’t have this time, Tessy. You should work on your odor and manners before trying to talk to me next time. I’m allergic to dirt and insults.” I told her bravely and the crowd jeered and others burst Into laughter at my remarks towards her but what followed was a hot slap from her and her eyes now blazing in inferno anger.
“How dare you say that to me, you silly prostitute?” She turned to the crowd, grinning and I was already soaked at the impact of the pain she Inflicted on me to notice what she was about to do next.
“Look everyone, this bitch right here tried to fuck with my boyfriend days after her slutty tape got released. She’s currently married to an innocent man who would soon become a Victim!” She said, raised her phone for everyone to see and I gasped in raw pain and horror. My shameless self was displayed for the whole world to see as my moans echoed in the air.
“Stop this Tessy!” I cried but she only smiled at me and everyone was now fixed on her as if she was the center of the show forgetting the main celebrant.
I turned to realize that Melody was no longer here and Ryker stared at me with a lustful gaze which almost made me puke.
I slapped Tessy’s hands vigorously and her phone fell heavily and cracked.
“What the hell?”
“No! What the actual hell is wrong with you? What did you want from me? Why are you doing this when I’m trying so hard to avoid you huh?” I cried, wailing at the top of my lungs but one slap from her sent me crashing into the pool unexpectedly, making me bounce my head on the pavement of the pool and blood took over.
My head spun in pain and stars swelled in my head. Lee cackled and growled within but I just wanted to get out of there. I want to fight, I want to tear something to pieces but right now I know I won’t win. Something would be sued against me and everyone would see me as some immoral being, they would add that to my state and I’d go viral again.
Without saying a word, I coughed out some water from my throat and walked out of the pool. The music had stopped and I now became the center of attention.
Tessy wanted to fight but I won’t give her the satisfaction as I watched her whisper some incoherent words to Ryker before turning her attention to me.
I didn’t say a word, I won’t. I took my purse and left to remove my heels because If I dared try to walk on them, I’d trip and burst out in pain.
The moment I reached outside the gate, I suddenly realized how dark it was and fear gripped my entire soul. I took my phone out from my purse and gasped at the time, it was already 10:15 pm.
Knowing I was partially doomed, I clutched my purse to my armpit and broke into a run, hoping to see a cab or a private car to take me home.
The road was crystal clear and I muttered silent prayers to be safe till I reached home. I could handle Lex’s anger as his least punishment would be extending my stay in the house. I don’t know why I have this silly confidence breeding in me that he won’t hurt me physically, it’s stupid. I know, given that his brother is a demon.
A black SUV drove slowly and I desperately waved my hands and it slowed down to my point.
“Going somewhere, ma’am?” The driver politely asked and I nodded.
“King’s Shade Estate?”
“Alright, Hop in.” He said and I hopped blindly, shutting my eyes to relax my shaky self. If I had known that this would be the outcome of the party, I wouldn’t have gone out at all.
However, something smelt so strange.
No, it was really strange that it just hit the back of my head and sent a putrid smell to the pit of my stomach to give me a sharp pain. I looked around the empty beautiful car but nothing seemed strange.
I wanted to puke, I was smelling rust with a mixture of rotten egg and towering oak trees with an ancient bark that was weathered by time, blending seamlessly with the earthy aroma of damp moss and crisp.
“Fuck!” I cursed instantly and hyperventilated.
Wolfsbane!
This is not for me, this is not good for Lee and this is not a human riding this car with a wolfsbane in it.
“I’m okay!” I managed to breathe a little and I was trying so hard not to.
“I’ll stop here please, thank you,” I told the man but he became deaf instantly and my eyes immediately stung with tears.
What have I gotten myself into?
“I said that I’m”
“I’m dropping you at King’s Shade, that’s your destination!”
His polite voice was now replaced with coldness and I swallowed.
“I’ve changed my mind,” I told him and a smug grin curved on his face through the rear mirror.
“I’ve changed my mind too.” He said and took another turn that led to god’s nowhere.
“Who the fuck are you?” I growled, feeling helpless and he chuckled.
“Just relax Princess, we won’t hurt you.”
Oh my goodness! Is it a we?
My heart turned to a skittering mess and I didn’t realize that my palms and tongue were now cold. I’m in big trouble and I don’t know what it is. I checked the time and it was 10:30 pm which made me realize that I had no time to waste it. I would face a mighty room soon.
Just when I was about to strike an attack the car came to an abrupt halt.
“If you dare try anything funny, this bane is going all the way down your throat and nose. Now don’t miss the fun and step out of the car quietly!”
