Alpha’s Tormented Seductress

“What are you doing here?” Alyssa asked with a cracked voice as she blinked her eyes severally to be sure that she wasn’t hallucinating.

“Hi, Alyssa”, Liam said in his soft and coarse voice that made her stomach swirl with excitement.

“I came to see you”, Liam said, even though it was obvious that he had come to see her.

Alyssa yelped in shock and hurriedly ran towards the door. She pushed him out until he no longer had a view of her room.

“How do you even know my room?” She asked him with a look of bewildered, but he only kept mute and gaped at her.

Her heart was pounding with fear and anxiety. Her body was getting weak with each minute he remained close to her.

“You need to leave, Michael!” Alyssa said in a voice that showed urgency.

A lot of things could go wrong at this point and Alyssa knew it. Already, she was sure that the queen was already suspecting her and Liam. She couldn’t trade the little time she had to escape with having a  conversation with Liam.

“I needed to see you”, Liams voice came again and this time, Alyssa lost her will.

She blushed and looked away, trying so hard to hide her face from him.

The fear of getting caught was beginning to diminish and what she was getting concerned in was having this moment with Liam, even though it might be their last.

“Michael, you really cannot be here. Anybody can see you…”, she said as her voice trailed off.

Liam didn’t seem to be giving an ear to all what she uttered. His attention was focused on her lips and eyes.

Tiffany could walk in at anytime and that would be the worst of all.

Likewise, she didn’t want him to see her intimate area and the place she laid her bed to sleep.

“Let’s take a stroll”, Alyssa suddenly suggested as she came out of the room.

She better take a stroll than be in the maid’s room together with him.

“The weather is quite cold. I mean, you might get cold and sick”, Liam said.

“My room is not helpful either. It’s hot and stuffy. I mean, the dust keeps getting into my nostrils and making my face red. It’s so uncomfortable!” Alyssa said, even if she knew that she wasn’t making sense, she only wanted to make him realize that he wasn’t the reason for her red face.

Liam chuckled silently after which he nodded his head and sauntered behind her. Alyssa was trembling in fear and as she walked, she tried to ensure that everywhere was clear from the view of any maid.

“Wait! Hide there!” She suddenly called out when she caught sight of Tiffany approaching her.

Liam quickly dashed away to hide at the back of a dark cotton. That was the perfect space to hide because no one would catch a glimpse of him there.

“Alyssa!” Tiffany called out as she pulled her into a warm hug.

“How did it go with the queen? Is there a trouble?” Tiffany asked, calmly caressing Alyssa’s cheeks.

“Nothing! She only wanted me to deliver an information to one of the maids”, Alyssa said and smiled to cover up her lie.

Tiffany stiffened for a moment. She wondered why the queen would call for Alyssa, when the head maid was there to take such information.

However, she shoved it aside when she recalled that it was the palace and anything could be done at anytime.

“So, what are you doing at the hallway? You should be in your room. It’s night already”, Tiffany said and started pulling Alyssa who struggled a bit.

She kept darting her eyes towards the cotton, hoping that he was still hiding perfectly.

“Hold on! I just remembered that I have a last message to drop off. I mean, the queen left me a message for the head cook”, Alyssa said abruptly.

Tiffany loosened her grip from her hand after which she nodded her head in understanding.

The moment she left, Alyssa let out a massive sigh of relief.

***

Liam walked beside Alyssa, stealing glances at her and observing how quiet and yet, troubled she looked.

“You look troubled”, Liam finally said while Alyssa sighed deeply and turned to look at him.

“Are you really telling me that?” She asked with a scowl on her face.

Liam raised his brows, trying to decipher what she was trying to say.

“All through the day, you ignored me. It was as though you were now avoiding me”, Alyssa complained and quickly lowered her head to the floor.

Liam was taken aback for a minute. He had swiftly decided to avoid her and he did that without putting her feelings and emotions in check.

“I’m sorry about that”, he finally apologized.

Alyssa kept mute and wore a straight face, though she was laughing so hard inwardly. She liked how remorseful he was with his actions and that made her realize that he might be a good person after all.

“I missed you”, Liam suddenly said while Alyssa glared at him in shock. She couldn’t believe that he had just made such utterance.

“You did?” She asked, with her eyes opening in shock. She had thought that she was the only person interested in meeting up with him every evening. Seeing that he missed her made her heart burn in excitement.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

However, her mood turned sour when she recalled the conversation she had with the queen earlier. She had told the queen that she had nothing going on with anyone and if she realizes that it was only a lie, there would be trouble.

“Did you miss me?” Liam asked as he looked at Alyssa who chuckled at his question.

“Of course, I did”, she replied sincerely.

“I haven’t missed a girl this way, all my life”, Liam confessed and Alyssa blushed. Hers was familiar with his. She had never met anyone who triggered the type of feelings she felt at the moment.

“You had such nerves to come into my room”, Alyssa chimed out. She was still in shock, because she never thought or imagined him coming into her room in search of her.

Liam chuckled. He never believed that he would be doing such a thing either. But then, with each minute that passed, he craved to see her and he couldn’t wait anymore.

They continued walking in silence. It was already quite dark and most of the servants and workers had retired to bed. That way, their meeting was much more discreet. The moon was out and the sky was littered with a handful of stars.

The atmosphere was awkward too. Each time his body brushed off hers, her body was set on fire.

None of them uttered any more words. They only gaped and stole glances.

After a moment, Liam grabbed her on the waist and swirled her around until she faced him. Alyssa yelped in shock; she was not expecting the flip.

Just then, he pulled her to the chest until his breath was now on her face.

Alyssa’s eyes widened in shock as they stare at each other. Everywhere turns dead silent, the world became on standstill. All what concerned Liam was the beautiful lady he had in his arms and what concerned Alyssa was his beautiful eyes and soft mint breath.

She thought of what happened in the closet and again, she blushed. However, it didn’t last, because almost immediately, she stretched out her hand to his chest and pulled him away with all her strength.
