REJECTED: The Alpha Behind The Mask

Victoria’s POV

I moaned in pleasure as he kept licking my left neck, he increased his speed and tightened his grip on me, but suddenly, he stopped and pulled away from me.

I held his gaze and could see his eyes were miserable, but I could notice something else. He was tensed.

“What is it?” I asked shyly, while moving away from his lap.

“Nothing.” he stood up from the bed and turned his back on me.

I felt heartbroken and hurt. I knew we might have had sex several times, but to me, all this was new.

“Was I that bad?” I asked, hurt.

“Of course no, the problem is me and not you.” he replied with his back to me.

I gulped in pain, stood up from the bed, and walked over to the couch. I took the phone he had gotten for me and left the room, without him turning to face me or even saying a word.

I decided not to go to my room, rather I left the house and went to the quarters where his men lived.

Reaching there, I knocked on the door and within a few seconds the door was opened.

“Can I come in?” I asked the guy who was at the door. I could see the resistance in his eyes, but he stood aside and let me in.

Thanks.” I murmured and went in.

When I walked into the sitting room, I saw three men seated on the long couch with game pads in their hands. They both stared at me for a while before the youngest among them flashed me a welcoming smile.

“Welcome, have a seat.” he pointed to a single couch for me.

“Thanks.” I smiled and took a seat. “Sorry for coming here, the main house is just too big and lonely.” I murmured to myself, but I knew they heard me.

“I understand that is how my home is.” the youngest spoke up.

I moved my gaze to him and stared at him with curiosity, “Home?” I asked, confused.

“Yeah, we all have a home and will go back once our training is over,” he answered.

Hearing those words from him, I became curious and wondered what training they were going through.

“What training is that?” I asked, curious.

“It’s…” those words did not leave his mouth when the guy beside him whacked him by the arm and they both stared into each other’s eyes.

The guy cleared his throat and flashed me a big smile. “Do you wanna play?” he asked while showing a playing pad to me. Seeing him reacting this way, it was obvious he wanted to change the topic.

“Yeah, sure.” I took the wireless pad from him and selected my team.

Luckily, I was good at video games.

“Wow, you are pretty good at this.” he flickered a big smile and went back to the big screen.

We kept playing for a while, until I noticed a different atmosphere in the room. Curiously, I turned around and saw Eric at the door. I eyed him angrily and went back to the game, but I noticed the guy playing with me wasn’t playing anymore.

“Are you tired?” I asked, even though I knew the reason he wasn’t playing.

“Alpha Eric is here.” he whispered.

“So?” I replied nonchalantly.

The guy stared at me for a while and looked away with fear.

I stood up from the single couch, went to the long couch and sat beside him. “Don’t be scared of him, he won’t bite you.” I placed my hand on his shoulder and gave him a friendly smile.

“Come on, let’s play.” I pleaded and whack him playfully, but before he could say a word, I heard Eric’s loud voice from the door. “Victoria.” his voice came as a roar which echoed in the room.

I noticed the men in the sitting room flipping with fear, including the young guy seated beside me.

Alpha Eric’s POV

If she were herself, then I wouldn’t have an issue with her staying with my men, but I was scared because my men had weird abilities, and they are not able to control them yet. ”Victoria !” I yelled while my voice echo in the room, making everyone in the room flip in fear.

I walked towards her and stood in front of the big screen with folded arms. ”Why are you here?” She asked with a big frown, while I did not give a response to that.

“I’m not going anywhere.” she grumbled angrily, and relaxed on the couch. I stared at her and a small smile appeared on my face. She hasn’t gotten her memory yet, and she still behaves like the old Victoria.

I released a heavy sigh and sat on the couch beside her. “I apologize for what I did.” I found myself apologizing.

“What are you sorry for?” she asked while leaving the couch.

I ran my finger through my hair because I did not know how to begin the conversation. “You don’t even know what you are sorry for,” she muttered, went to the door and left the sitting room.

I stood on my feet and left the quarters, but I didn’t go after her.

I went to the swimming pool, took off my jeans and shirt, leaving me with just my underwear. I dived into the swimming pool and exclaimed in relief when I felt the coldness of the water.

My heart was screaming for me to go after her and settle things with her, but I decided it was best I let her be.

I continued swimming for a while until I sensed Victoria coming my way by her scent. She walked to the pool and glared at the water before staring at me. “The weather is freezing, how can you still swim?” she asked, almost like a murmuring.

I chuckled, and moved closer to her so that my head was before her feet while I was still in the water.

“Why don’t you come in and see if it’s freezing.” without waiting for a reply, I pulled her into the water.

“Shit, what did you do?” she yelled, but I ignored her and pulled her to myself. Her hair was soaked with water, her brown eyes were filled with fear, but she was also trilled.

“I’m soaked.” she murmured.

“I’ll dry you.” I replied with a big grin on my face.

She rolled her eyes and moved away, swimming to the other side of the pool.

I placed my back to the wall of the pool and positioned my arms on the tile floor while I stared at her.

She took off her dress and was left with just her bra. I felt my dick shift uncomfortably and my wolf whispered in pleasure. She made eyes with me and nervously licked her lower lip before looking away.

She dived into the water and swam for a while before she came out. Watching her swim, I could tell she was just not a good swimmer, but she was a professional.

“You do swim.” I praised.

“A lot.” she replied, and went back inside the water.

Few minutes later, she came out of the water and flashed me a big smile which fluttered my heart before going in again.

Seeing her this way, I couldn’t swim anymore, rather I just watched her go in and out of the water with so much excitement and giggling.

Victoria’s POV

It felt so good to be in water again, it felt like it’d been ages since I’d come into the swimming pool. I continued swimming, but noticed Eric wasn’t swimming, but rather his gazes were fixed on me.

I ignored his stares, and kept swinging until I was exhausted and decided to leave the pool.

I climbed the stairs out of the water, and the moment I left the pool, I felt cold grazed all over my body.

“How is this possible?” I murmured to myself as I stared at the pool. When I was in the pool, I was comfortable there and did not feel cold or any discomfort, but the moment I left the pool it felt like I was being put in a freezer.

Quickly, I rubbed my two palms together to generate heat and rubbed them on my arms.

I noticed Eric staring at me as he jumped out of the pool without using the stairs.

“It’s okay.” he said and pulled me into a tight hug.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

I exclaimed in relief as I felt the warmth of his body. Relaxing in his arms, I wondered how someone could generate such heat from his body despite how freezing the weather was.

With a relieved sigh, I stayed in his arms for a while until I realized the cold was gone.

“Thank you.” I murmured and pulled away from him. “I’ll go in and change.” I gulped nervously, picked up my dress and left.

I climbed the stairs to my room, got into my room and went to the bathroom. When I got to my bathroom, I pulled off the short jeans I was putting on and stepped into the warm shower.

I took a quick bath, wrapped a towel around my chest and walked into the room. I dried my body and hair with the towel, put on a simple loose dress and lay on the bed.

With my eyes closed, the images of his shirtless body in the pool kept flickering in my head. Excitedly, I wiggled on the bed as so many stupid thoughts came to my mind.

”Stop this!” I grumbled, wiped off those thoughts in my head and forced myself to sleep.

A soft knock on the door woke me up from my sleep. “Who is that” I asked in a sleepy voice.

”It’s me,” the familiar voice replied.

Without calling his name, I knew it was the Butler. ”Dinner is served.”

”I’m not hungry.” I lied.

”Why? If I may ask,” he asked from the door.

”Because my stomach is filled.” I grumbled.

I noticed he was silent for a while before he spoke up, ”Alright, goodnight.” he said and left the door.

With a heavy sigh, I lay back on the bed and tried to go back to sleep. I was damn hungry, but going to the dining table meant I would have to see Eric again.

A few minutes later, I was almost asleep when I noticed the door open. Slowly, I opened my eyes and saw that it was Eric walking in with a tray of food in his hands. ”I told you I’m not hungry.” I murmured with a frown.

He ignored me and sat on the bed beside me. I watched him open the plate and took a spoon out of it.

“Have it.” he stretched the spoon to me.

“I told you I’m not hungry.” I murmured and looked away.

“You only had breakfast. You didn’t even eat lunch, then how can you say you are not hungry, now eat.” he filled up the spoon and brought the spoon of food to my mouth.

I frowned and tried looking away, but he held my face and gave me a serious look. “Eat.” his word came as an order.

I grumbled and opened my mouth. He kept forcing me to eat until I ate everything on the plate.

“Thank you.” I murmured and looked away.

He stood up from the bed and placed the tray of plate on the table before he stood before me like he had something to say.

“Are you okay,” he asked while staring at me.

“Yes, I’m okay.” I replied quickly.

He nodded his head, moved close to me and placed a kiss on my forehead. “I’m in my room, in case you need anything.” He smiled, picked up the tray from the table and left.

I smiled widely at myself while I massaged my forehead. The feeling of being loved by someone was really incredible.

With a satisfied sigh, I lay back on the bed and forced myself to sleep.

I woke up the next morning, stared around and noticed the sunset was reflecting through my window.

Lazily, I stood up from the bed, checked the table clock and realized it was past 10am.

“What the hell?” I muttered out, shocked. How was I able to sleep this long?

Quickly, I took a quick bath, wore a short and a big pullover hoodie before going downstairs.

“You are finally awake.” I heard the cook’s voice from the kitchen and wondered how he was able to tell that I was the one without even seeing me or hearing my voice.

I walked into the kitchen and stood by the door with folded arms. “Good morning.” I greeted

”Morning, what would you like for breakfast?” he asked with a smile.

I left the door, walked into the kitchen and stood beside him. “Can I make my breakfast?” I asked.

“Sure, I have no problem with that, besides, Alpha Eric is already out.” his last word caught my attention.

“Where did he go?” I asked curiously.

“I don’t know, but he said he would be back.” I nodded my head to his words with a frown.

“The kitchen is all yours. Call me if you need anything,” he smiled, before leaving the kitchen.

With a deep breath, I stared around and noticed everything I needed was in the kitchen. Excited, I opened the fridge and saw different types of seafood; meat, fish, and chicken.

A few minutes later, I finished preparing some beacon, ate a little, went back to my room and picked up the phone.

I went through the phone and saw Eric’s number was already stored on it. Anxious, I dialed his number and placed the phone on my ear, waiting for him to pick up.

It rang a few times before it was picked.

“Victoria?” he asked to be certain.

“Yeah.” I replied and nervously nipped my lower lips.

“Why are you calling, is something wrong?” he asked, worriedly.

“No, I just went through the phone and decided to give you a call.” I replied.

“Oh, okay.” he replied and sighed heavily.

”Is everything okay.” I asked when I noticed the tiredness in his voice.

“Yes, I’m at the office right now, so much work to be done,” he murmured tiredly.

“Oh, I wish I could help.” I murmured to myself, but he heard me.

“Just be with me, that’s all I need.” he muttered in a serious tone.

His words brought a big smile to my face, but I quickly wiped it off.

“When are you coming home?” I asked, “At night, but you can call me if you need anything.”

“I’m not a baby, I can take care of myself,” I murmured.

He chuckled over the phone before speaking, “Alright, just take care of yourself.”

“I will.”

“Alright, I have to go.” he pleaded.

“Alright, bye.” I said and ended the call.

I dropped the phone on the bed and went for the laptop. I put it on, went through it for a while before switching it off and went to bed.

“Ahh.” I exclaimed in pain as I left the bed. I checked the time and saw it was past 3 pm. I left the room and went downstairs to the sitting room. With a groan, I collapsed on the couch as I gently massaged my head.

“Are you okay?” The butler asked.

“No.” I replied and closed my eyes.

I noticed he took in a deep breath and quickly moved away from me. “You should go back to your room.” he spoke almost like a plead.

“Why.” I asked.

He stared at me for a while, contemplating on what he should say. “You look sick, you should get some rest,” he said and flashed me a weak smile.

With a groan, I stood to my feet, “Can you get me some painkillers.”? I pleaded.

“Yeah, sure.” he smiled and walked away.

With heavy feet, I dragged my legs back to my room.

I lay on the bed and tried closing my eyes, but the pains in my head were unbearable. With a groan, I went to the drawer in my room, opened the drawer and took out some painkillers from my medicine box.

I put some painkillers in my mouth and drank it with some water.

With a grunt, I lay back on the bed and tried getting some sleep, but it wasn’t working. Rather, I noticed I was feeling cold again, but this time it was intense. With heavy feet, I left the bed, walked to my closet and took out thick stockings and put it on. Tiredly, I lay on the bed and forced myself to sleep.

Hours later!

A suffocating cold breeze blew over my body, jolting me awake. Leisurely, I opened my eyes, just to notice that the bed was soaked with my sweat. I was sweating profusely, while I was freezing inside. Tiredly, I tried getting on my feet but realized my feet were weak, and I couldn’t stand; rather, I collapsed back on the bed with panting breath.

My whole body was trembling with immersion cold, while my head ached with pain and discomfort.

”What’s going on?” I muttered out and tried lying on the bed, but I was damn uncomfortable. My thighs were scorching with heat and discomfort, while I found it hard to concentrate or control my breath.

”Argh…” I cried out in discomfort and arched my back forward while I clenched the linen of the bed with both fists.

I was wildly horny and turned on, and my private parts were burning with such intense heat that I had to slightly open my thighs, wanting air to come in, but it only made things worse.

“Is it the effect of the drugs again?” I murmured in discomfort, but quickly shook my head in disagreement. What I was feeling was way different and stronger than what I felt few days ago.

I was wildly turned on and craved to have sex with anyone who was willing to assist me. ”What…is going on…?” I whispered, scared.
