REJECTED: The Alpha Behind The Mask

Victoria’s POV

“You mean DOM Tim picked you.” Sonia asked with a glare. “Yes.” I giggled happily like a child and sat on the bed while taking off my shoes.

She gave me an odd look and I knew she had something to say. “What is it?” I asked, fixing my gaze on her. She walked around the room for a while, and stood before me. “I was wondering what Eric would do if he finds out you went out with another man.” She murmured with a frown. I scoffed at her words and left the bed.

“Eric and I have no connection.” I declared firmly. “But…” Sonia tried speaking, but I cut her off, “No Sonia, don’t say it.” I said with disgust and pulled off my dress. “What Eric needed from me was sex, and now he has it, he doesn’t need anything else from me.” I murmured with hatred. “Could you believe it’s not even up to a week he took my virginity, yet he had sex throughout the night with his girlfriend. She also has the guts to pick up his phone and tell me all about it.”? I yelled and picked up a towel, “Eric doesn’t love me and I think he doesn’t love anyone but himself. That man is too selfish, and I can’t see myself having anything to do with him.” I stated and went to the bathroom.

When I got to the bathroom, I glared at the mirror and saw the mark on my neck. Staring at the mark on my neck, I remembered how DOM Tim was staring at the mark and I realized he knew what it meant even though I lied to him. I knew he would never want to have anything with me, seeing that I had someone else’s mark on my neck.

”Damn it!” I groaned and thought of a way to get rid of this mark on my neck because I couldn’t keep hiding it forever.

I sighed heavily and stood in the running shower to take a quick bath. After bathing, I left the bathroom and went back to the room where I met Sonia, busy with her computer.

“Isn’t it too late for things like this.” I asked while putting on my nightwear, but She totally ignored me and kept typing on her computer. ”Suit yourself.” I shrugged my shoulders and went to the closet. I ran my gaze in the closet and took out a comfortable blue dress.

“Is this okay?” I asked while placing the dress on my body. Sonia stared at me for a second and went back to her computer.

It was obvious she was furious with me, so I decided to let her be. I took the dress and pressed it before I put it back in the closet. Tiredly, I laid on the bed and stared at Sonia, who was busy with her computer. “Hey.” I called out. “I can hear you.” She replied nonchalantly which made me rolled my eyes before speaking, “Do you think he will wear his mask?” I asked in curiosity because I wished I could see his face, “I don’t know, that is left for him to decide if he trusts you enough to let you see his face.” She responded, still typing on her computer.

Those words she said rang in my head, and I thought of how it would feel if DOM Tim would trust me enough to let me see his face. Heaving a deep breath, I closed my eyes and all I could see were those two sets of piercing green eyes that always bring shivers to my body.

Alpha Eric’s POV

“A black suit or just jeans.” I murmured out frustrated, as I threw clothes on my bed with frustration.

I was so anxious about the date that I woke up as early as 6am. Not only that, but I couldn’t sleep throughout the night because of the fact that I was going to spend a whole day with Victoria. I felt a strong sensation in me, and it felt like I was a teen going for his first date.

”Ridiculous.” I groaned and roughly ran my fingers through my hair before sitting on the bed. I stared at the clothes scattered on the bed and wondered what was really wrong with me.

This was Victoria, this was a woman I was supposed to hate and ignore, but here I am, very anxious and eager to go on a date with her. Shaking my head in disbelief, I checked the time and realized it was almost 8am, and I hadn’t even decided on what to wear.

Quickly, I stood to my feet and walked into the bathroom. I stepped into the shower, took a quick bath and went back to the room.

I stood in front of the bed and stared at the clothes on the bed with a frustrated look. Left with no choice, I picked up a navy-blue suit and decided to wear it. I dressed into the suit, put on my shoes and wore a navy-blue mask which covered every part of my face.

I stared into the mirror and noticed all parts of my face were covered up except for the tiny gaps in my eyes and lips.

Inhaling deeply, I combed and gelled my hair before spraying some spray and perfume. I went for my wristwatch, put it on and went for my phone.

Again, I stared at myself one more time in the mirror before leaving my room. I got to my garage, picked up a different Toyota Camry and drove out. When I got to her apartment, I took a deep breath before dialing her number.

“Hello.” She whispered in a low excited voice, “I’m in front of your apartment.” I spoke coldly, and nervously. I did not let those words end in my mouth before I cut the call.

Nervously, I took a better look at myself in my reversed mirror before sucking a deep breath. I got out of the car and stood by the car while I waited for her. I put my left hand in the pocket of my pants and was about checking my watch when I heard the sound of hills coming my way.

In a swift motion, I looked up and behold I saw Victoria dressed in the same color of dress with me. She was putting on a short blue dress, her hair poured out onto her shoulder to cover my mark on her. She matched her dress with long-silver earrings but no necklace on her neck and held a blue purse.

She was amazingly beautiful even without her putting on makeup.

“Mate.” My wolf whispered in excitement.

I groaned and locked eyes with her as she stood in front of me with a cute little smile on her face. “Beautiful.” I muttered out those words without me knowing.

She smiled shyly and tried to tuck her hair behind her ear, but she remembered my mark and decided to keep back her hand.

“You look good.” She praised me while staring directly into my eyes.

“Thank you.” I cleared my throat and opened the door for her to go in. “Thank you.” She blinked a big smile that brought butterflies to my stomach.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

I closed the door, walked over to the driver’s seat and started the car. I could feel my palms becoming sweaty as I drove off.

I took a glimpse of her and noticed she was twisting her fingers and biting her lips nervously.

“I thought I would be privileged to see your face today.” She mumbled those words while looking outside the window.

Hearing those words from her, I knew it was risky, and she might ask for it some other day, so I had to do something and I have to do it now.
