Alexa’s Point Of View
Yawning, I opened my eyes only to close them back when the morning light hit my eyes. I felt something tighten around me and then a scent hit my nose. I opened my eyes and looked down at my body.
My cheeks reddened in embarrassment when I realized I was naked. I tried pulling the duvet to cover my body well but I was restricted by two strong arms. I looked up at his face. I almost forgot I slept in his room last night.
I scooted up to get a closer look at his face. He looks so peaceful while sleeping. I reached for his face and trailed my finger down his nose bridge to his lips. At the touch of lips, images of last night flashed in my head, causing my kitty to beat in excitement.
Where the heck did he learn how to use his mouth like that? Has he been practicing with other girls? Tch! This womanizing alpha.
He suddenly smiled, taking me aback. Is he dreaming? Dreaming about other girls?
He smiled again. This time wider. This vampire! I should just pull his hair out!
This time, he chuckled.
Ah, he’s going crazy. Maybe I should knock some senses into him? I was raising my head to knock his head when he opened his eyes. I hanged my hand in the air as I stared back at him in shock.
“What are you doing?”
“Uh… I was just… stretching. Yes, stretching,” I said as I faked stretched and he smiled amusingly.
“Good morning,” he said as he pulled me to lie on his chest. “Slept well?” He asked and I nodded.
“The best sleep ever,”
He smirked teasingly. “why?” He asked as he came on top of me.
“Wh.. what are you doing?”
“Why was it the best sleep ever?”
“Well… I… I slept comfortably,” I said and he chuckled.
“Are you sure it’s not because of something else?” He pressed, trailing his hand down my stomach.
I shook my head and he raised his brow. “You sure?” He asked as he ventured his hand lower. I gulped. I’m sure my face is as red as a pumpkin.
“I.. um… yes!” I yelled and pushed him off me. I quickly got off the bed and took the duvet to cover myself. I thought he was also naked but he was clad in a pair of briefs. I can’t believe I slept naked next to him.
“Where are you going?” He asked as I rushed to the door with the duvet wrapped around me.
“Out of here!” I yelled before rushing out. Thankfully, no one was nearby. I looked around cautiously as I waddled back to my room. Where are the maids? Are they on leave or something?
I got into my room successfully without running into anyone. I went to the bathroom immediately I got in.
Gosh, Alexa, you are out of your mind. How could you let him… oh my goodness! How do I face him from now on? I put on the shower and had a nice warm bath.
I put on a baggy shirt and a pair of sweats after bathing. I rolled my hair into twin buns and went out after.
I turned in the direction of the East wing and took the stairs. I was hearing clangs of swords so I followed the sound to check out what it was. I came across a back door that led to the outside. I stepped out and found Xena and Ace in a duel.
“Alexa!” Riaz beamed as he saw me. He tapped on a space beside him and I went over to sit there. Cyan was with him.
“Good morning,” Riaz greeted and I replied with a smile. Cyan tapped my hand with his paw, trying to gain my attention but I was still mad at him. He caused such a fuss yesterday.
“I’m still mad at you.” I said to him and he whimpered, giving me his best puppy dog eyes. I closed my eyes so I wouldn’t be affected by it.
“You caused such a fuss last night. Why did you do that?” I scolded and he whined.
“Are you sorry?”
“Look at those eyes. Of course, he’s sorry,” Riaz said and I smiled. How can I stay mad at him for so long? He barked happily when I carried and pecked his head.
“Just don’t do that again,” I said and he barked. I looked ahead toward Xena and Ace’s direction. They were still dueling. They both were such good fighters. Xena’s moves were sharp and powerful but Ace wasn’t ready to get defeated. He returned every attack with more strength.
“Who’s the better fighter?” I asked Riaz.
“Ace. Though Xena is getting stronger by the day. She could beat him if he relents.”
I hummed. “What about you? Don’t you train with them?”
He shook his head.
“So you don’t know how to fight?” He chuckled. “I said I don’t train with them not I don’t train at all.”
“How good are you?” I asked but he didn’t reply. He simply smiled. I wonder what that smile meant.
“Fuck!” Xena’s cry diverted my attention back to the fight. She was face flat on the ground while Ace stood triumphantly.
“You still can’t beat me, princess.”
Xena threw a handful of grass at Ace and he laughed. He looked forward and grinned when he saw me.
“You’re here, princess.”
“You’re good. Should I take fighting lessons from you?”
“I don’t wanna get on Akira’s bad side,” he winked and I rolled my eyes. He turned to Riaz and smiled. “Let me guess. You are not sparing today? As usual?”
Riaz shook his head as he stood up. “I actually want to. I’ve been waiting for you guys to finish,”
“You wanna spar with Xena?” Ace asked and Xena made her way forward.
“I’d gladly do.”
Damn! She looks so ready to beat the shit out if Riaz.
“No,” Riaz suddenly said. “I wanna spar with you, Ace.”
