REJECTED: The Alpha Behind The Mask

Victoria’s POV

“Thank you.” I murmured in tears, still in his arms. He did not say a word, rather he hissed softly. Knowing what I had done, I quickly moved away from him.

“I’m sorry.” I gulped and nervously looked away,

”I don’t like being touched.” He grumbled,

“I’m sorry, it wasn’t intentional.” I apologized and moved away from him. We held gaze and I realized his eyes were becoming darker the more he stared at me. “You should go.” I said as I gulped in fear.

“Really ?” He asked while taking a step closer to me.

“You were the one who called me here and even hugged me without my permission, and now you are asking me to leave.” He groaned and moved a bit closer to me, while I took steps backward until I noticed my back slammed to the wall. “Shit”. I murmured in regret.

“Thanks for your help, but I think you should leave.” I murmured with a shaky voice.

“Really? Is that how you show your gratitude.” He asked, while he strode closer to me and placed his two hands on the wall on each side of me, so I couldn’t escape from him.

“What are you doing?” I asked in fear,

“What does it look like I’m doing.”, he asked with a big grin on his face.

“Go away.” I swallowed nervously and tried looking away, but he placed his hand on my chin and made me lock eyes with him.

“So, what do you think about my proposal.” He asked while staring at me with those set of dark green eyes I find fascinating. “What proposal”. I asked, acting ignorant.

“Don’t play dumb with me” He said, while I gulped and looked away. “I’m still waiting for a reply.” He said in a demanding voice, but I didn’t know what to say. “You want me to make you talk?” He asked with a mischievous smile on his face. I didn’t say a word, rather I avoided his gaze.

“Fine!” he muttered and was about going for my neck when I quickly spoke up, “Fine, I’ll do it.” I blurted out in fear,

“Say it again.” He demanded.

I groaned and said, “I’ll agree to your demands but only once.”’ I spoke firmly.

He scoffed at my words and took his hands off the wall. “Who told you I would like to have anything to do with you after mating?” He spoke with disgust. “You are definitely not my type.” He added those words with all sincerity in him, while I rolled my eyes and looked away.

“Send your details, I’ll send the money to you.”

“I will take the money after the deal.” I replied.

“Very well then, see you in two weeks.” He said and moved away from me,

He gave me a quizzical stare before leaving the room. I sighed in relief and lay on the bed. I just made a mistake, a terrible mistake, and I knew it. I had just made a deal with the devil, and I knew I was going to pay for it. Tiredly, I forced myself to sleep.

“Wake up sleepy head, see what I got you.” I heard Sonia’s voice in my sleep. I groaned and opened my eyes, only to see Sonia bringing out things from a bag. “What are those ?” I asked, sitting on the bed.

“I bought them on my way back home.”

“You bought them or someone bought it for you ?” I asked while staring at her with curious eyes. “Whatever.” She murmured and sat on the bed, ”This is for you.” She handed a bag to me.

“Thanks.”, I murmured, and kept it on the table. “Are you okay ?” She asked while staring at me with curiosity.

“What’s wrong?” She asked.

I took a deep breath before speaking, “I almost killed a man and agreed to mate with Eric.” I murmured.

She furrowed her eyebrows and started at me with confused-filled eyes and said “I don’t get what you’re saying.” she replied confused, while I shrugged my shoulders and explained everything to her.

“Woah!” She blurted out

“So will you be having sex with Eric?” She asked excitedly, while I rolled my eyes and looked away. “I don’t want this.” I murmured in regret.

“You have to, you are his mate, and it’s bound to happen.” She spoke firmly.

“He will see me as someone who sold her body for money.” I grumbled.

“Stop saying that Vicky, you are his mate and even if he gives you money, don’t see it as if you are trading your body.” Sonia tried assuring me, but it wasn’t working.

“I think I like someone.” I murmured to her hearing, while she stared at me with dumbfounded eyes.

“You love someone?” She asked

“Yeah.” I stood on my feet and wandered in the room. “And who is that.” she asked while staring at me with curiosity. Nervously, I roughly ran my fingers through my head and thought of how to say it.

“I think I like DOM Tim.” I murmured, hoping she wouldn’t hear me, but she did.

“DOM Tim?” She asked in disbelief, while I nodded my head, “You must be joking.” She scoffed in disbelief. “You like someone you don’t even know and haven’t seen his face.” She mocked, while I grumbled but did not say a word

“Okay if you like DOM Tim, then what happens to Alpha Eric?” she asked while staring at me with a questioning look .

“What about Eric?” I asked, angrily. “You are Eric’s mate, you are supposed to like him, not some DOM who is hiding under a mask, and who knows, he might be dangerous and deadly.” Sonia spoke in a serious tone.

“Stop it Sonia, you don’t know DOM Tim, he is far better than Eric in every way and I could feel it in my bones.”

“You must be joking.” she spoke in disbelief, “DOM Tim isn’t one who is looking for a relationship with innocent girls like you. All he needs is a submissive to fascinate his bed, and you and I know you are not that type.” she spoke firmly.

“Well, people do change.” unknowingly, those words slipped out of my lips.
