REJECTED: The Alpha Behind The Mask

Alpha Eric’s POV

I closed the bathroom door and walked back to the hall.

I inhaled deeply, picked up my underwear and put it on before going for my pants.

With heavy feet, I walked to the bar and took out a bottle of whiskey and poured some in a glass before gulping it all into my mouth in a swift motion.

I groaned, poured another drink in the glass and drank everything before taking a deep breath.

What was wrong with me, what is fucking wrong with me? I had sex with her, no not sex, I just made love to her.

I was supposed to stay away from this girl, I was supposed to hate her and everything about her, but here I am, masked up, pretending to be someone else just to be with her.

I groaned, frustrated, and took another sip of my drink before leaving the bar. I went back to the couch and saw her panties and dress were still on the floor.

I picked them up and inhaled her fascinating scent from her underwear before taking the dress back to the bathroom and kept them on the door.

I was about to leave when I heard a soft sob coming from the bathroom. Everything in me was urging me to open the bathroom door and hug her in my arms, whispering soft words to her, but I couldn’t, I just couldn’t.

I left the door and walked back to the hall, where I awaited her.

Few minutes later, I heard footsteps and saw her walk out of the bathroom door.

She strolled up to me, picked up her shoes from the floor, and slowly put them on while avoiding my gaze.

I took a glimpse of her and noticed shame and regret written all over her face, and I was expecting this from her.

She put on her shoes and sat beside me, making sure she gave me enough space. We sat there in silence for a while until she spoke up, ”I think I should go home.” She did not let those words finish from her mouth before she stood on her feet and picked up her purse while avoiding my gaze.

“Sit.” I pleadedContent bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“No.” She replied, quickly, and firmly.

I frowned and stood to my feet. I took a few steps towards her and stood just an inch away from her.

I watched her swallow nervously and looked away from me with embarrassment. “Look at me.” I ordered.

She gulped and slowly met my gaze with fear and regret written in her eyes. I stared at her two sets of brown eyes and felt my wolf howling in pleasure, which made me seize a deep breath before speaking. “Do you regret everything?” I asked while locking eyes with her. “I dunno.” She murmured while trying to look away from me.

“Look at me.” I said those words not in anger, but in frustration.

She looked away for a while before meeting my gaze.

“You wanted this, you asked for this, why do you regret it now.” I asked while staring at her.

All this wouldn’t have happened if only she had been able to stay away from me. All this wouldn’t have occurred if she hadn’t included her name on that list, all this was all her fault and here she was, angry about it.

“I need to go.” She murmured softly,

”Fine!” I nodded my head, picked up my jacket and left her at the club. I walked straight to my car, got in, and waited for her to join me in the car.

Few minutes later, she came out of the club and stood at the door. She gave me a look filled with pain and regret and began walking away.

“Shit!” I groaned and quickly got out of the car, but I couldn’t walk after her because she was walking faster, and I was putting on a mask.

I groaned in anger and quickly got into my car and drove after her. I drove to the direction I saw her heading to, but I was unable to find her, she just disappeared from my sight.

”Fuck!” I slammed the steering of the car and kept driving until I got to her flat. I got out of my car and quickly knocked on the door of her flat, but got no response from anyone. I knocked again and noticed no one was at home.

I roughly ran my fingers through my hair and kept calling her number, but she wasn’t picking up.

Frustrated at myself, I went back to the car, pulled off my mask and drove off.

I drove back home, went to my room and kept calling her number, but she wasn’t picking up. Angrily, I threw the phone on the bed and went into the bathroom.

I took a quick shower and came out of the bathroom, and was about putting on my clothes when I saw my aunt’s call coming in.

Seeing her call, I remembered I was supposed to ask Victoria to accompany me to aunt’s place for dinner, but I totally forgot.

After several calls from aunt, I picked up the call and aunt did not let me say a word before she started speaking. “When are you guys coming?” She asked impatiently.

I kept quiet and didn’t know what to say to her.

“Eric.” She called out to me, “I can hear you, aunt.” I murmured.

“Don’t tell me you forgot to tell her about it.” She spoke annoyed and hurt.

“I’ll call her now.” I grumbled while massaging my forehead.

“You better do that, and make sure she agrees because I will be expecting you guys.” with those words she ended the call.

I groaned and dialed Victoria’s line, but she still wasn’t picking. I dialed the second time, and this time it rang a few times before it was picked.

“Hello.” I called out, but She kept quiet for a while before responding, What is it?” She asked, irritated by my call.

I took the phone away from my ear and took a better look at it to make sure I was calling her with my main line.

“If you are not saying anything, Eric, I will have to end this call.” She uttered, angered by my silence.

A sigh of relief escaped my lips when I realized I was using the right number.

“Can I talk to you?” I asked, almost like a plead.

“Listen Eric, I have no time for your talk and blabbering, just say what you have to say.” She muttered out with so much anger and hatred for me in her.
