71. Delicate Flower
Chapter Seventy One; Delicate Flower.
Miya’s POV
“That’s not all, I found out that they had been having an affair behind my back, I tried to tell the Alpha but he didn’t believe me, he had fallen in love with the cunning Creston and believed him more than me, when I tried to catch them red handed and expose their plans, they caught me and turned the table upside down.
He ended up not believing me and chased me out of the community, they really cheated me because I lost so many things that day, my friend.. my mate… my pack and my father …”
I wailed louder when I thought about it, the pain intensifying as the minutes go by as if it had happened yesterday.
“Don’t worry, it’s fine now, at least you are saved from him”
I sneezed and looked at his eager eyes filled with tenderness.
“Yes just like you”
“Alas all our mates are useless” Indeed they are.
“For the first time I agree with you”
“Cheers to that”
Glass and bottle of wine clicked and we dawned our drinks, we had finally finished not two cups or bottles, but up to five bottles of wine.
I am even surprised that I am not very drunk yet.
“Come here” he said with his hands opened to me, I complied, entering into his embrace and feeling the warmth of his manly embrace, I remained glued to him until I felt his hands move around me.
Making there ways to my head, he cupped my face and looked at me with a soft look, I was confused as to what he was doing, but at that moment, I was not rational, heck I was even just half conscious from all the drinking.
I tried to figure out what he was thinking, but he didn’t let his emotions show in his face, I just looked at a handsome face.
Gradually, they started coming closer to mine, like magnetic, mine was also moving towards him on its own accord.
The next minute, his lips was on mine and he kissed me gently, his every move was very delicate that I felt like a flower being worshiped by him.
I was lost in the moment as fireworks exploded within and without, I never knew that his annoying lips would work this kind of magic.
It felt like he was trying to take away my pain and still wish me that everything will be well, and somehow I believed it.
“Don’t worry, you’ve been through a lot, but it will soon be over, I promise you that”
His melodious voice sounded at the end of the kiss shattering me into pieces just hearing his promise, it was like he was a total different person and so was I.
That was the last thing I remembered about that night.

Alpha Xavier’s POV
I was sure that it was only one person that left the house, but just to be sure, I stood up from the chair and set out to look for her in the house lest she end up doing something outrageous or spoiling something again, or even worse, what if she entered my study room?
I had so many important files and folders there sin I ran with a speed of light upstairs and saw that she was not there, after checking every room and making sure she didn’t trespass there, I came downstairs.
The sound of music started playing and I knew instantly that she was in the kitchen, I laughed at my foolishness door forgetting that the kitchen would obviously be the first place she would be, since I’ve met her, there were two things she liked doing, being stupid and eating anyhow.
I took my time and walked into the kitchen ready to rebuke her for using my kitchen without my permission, but the sight I came into was priceless.
Her smell back appeared in front of me, she was wearing an apron around her neck and waist, a spatula was held in her hand like a microphone as she sang into it swaying her hips to the right and left.
Her voice was surprisingly melodic than even the voice of the music lead, it was as though she was the one that wrote the song the way she sang it.
I totally forgot what brought me there and leaned on the door frame appreciating the work of art of front of me.
After the beautiful presentation, I couldn’t help but clap out loud to her performance was excellent just now that she might just win the American’s idol if she auditioned for it.
“Alpha, I thought you were sick when did you wake up?”
Even her voice was now sounding melodious like music to my ear.
“Is it now really? Do you suddenly wish she didn’t stop singing?”
My wolf started surfacing and teasing me about something that is not even true, this made me angry and I pushed him back down, I changed my expression and attacked her like I had already planned.
“What are you cooking? The aroma had woken me up from sleep and I couldn’t go back without making sure you were not wasting my groceries”
And to add to the effect of my speech, just incase she didn’t hear me, I went closer to her and spoke in a hush monotonic voice making sure the effect of my voice was felt and the unspoken words heard.
Just when I had finished letting the words out and was satisfied with it, she proved me wrong by talking about it so casually as if she was not being scolded.
“Alpha, did you just compliment my food without even tasting it? Then you’ll enjoy it once am done, why don’t you go back and rest?”
I was surprised by her courage, grabbing her hand, I pushed her against the counter and gave her a death glare, “don’t mess with me girl.”
I pinned her and lectured her until she finally admitted by herself that she was using my resources and even thanked me for it.
“Okay, thank you or letting me use your ingredients Mr. Alpha Xavier, I am sure the food would be delicious”
That was when I let go of her and gave her another demand, seeing her running up and down was really a joyful thing for me to see her rallying up and down in the house.
Only after stressing her might she get tired and reveal the truth of her real intention to me, maybe she’ll give up at trying to live comfortably in this community and find a different place to carry out her evil plans.
I had made sure that I gave her all the available house chores I could think of, naturally she should be angry and fed up, then give up and run, but she didn’t, she actually lasted until the evening taking care of all my needs and demands without complaining and I was not satisfied with that.
I intentionally gave her so much work to spark up a reaction from her so that it becomes easy for me to force the truth out of her, but now she only made my work harder, at least Dr. Mildred coded and didn’t come back for her early.
But I must think of a better way to make her spill the bean before she goes, I can’t possibly force her to stay and force the words out of her now that she is not a prisoner right? Unless there was another way.
“Please open the door for me to go”
She asked, she looked so tired and not in the mood to argue, the perfect way I wanted her to be at the moment.
“Drink with me and I’ll open the door”.
I asked her and she immediately agreed making me feel like I was an awful person that she dared not stay with me for long, she’s rather drink two cups than stay back and just enjoy being in the Alpha’s house, that’s really sad.
“Okay two cups”
But of cause I wasn’t going to play by the rules.
I not only changed the white Bruno wine for a red one, I also brought out a bottle of tequila to the table.
I started talking to her to spittle a reaction, if I shared a memory with her, she might think am vulnerable or be vulnerable and open up to me, I didn’t know that the joke would be on me.
I was already getting emotional so I had to stop mid story and let her vent her own frustration out,
It turns out she really had a sad story like me.
I had thought that the truth would finally come out, once she was drunk, she would tell me how she was related to Sophia and what the hell she was doing in my pack.
She got drunk quite alright, but ended up making me pity her to the extend of sharing emotions with her, not just emotions, I also got carried away by her beautiful face and her moist eyes that I couldn’t help but kiss her, she had also kissed me back.
