Chapter 24 The Seductive Eyes
Elena Pov
After being yelled at fiercely by Marcus, I didn't come down for breakfast. I stayed in my room, snuggling against my bedsheets, face covered in tears, and eyes filled with heartbreak.
I didn't go downstairs, I had no wish to see Victoria as I knew I might do something crazy as I can't stand seeing Marcus together with her.
I pursed my lips, sat up in bed and pulled my knees to my chest while looking at the wall in a daze. It's been almost two hours since I left them, and even if I tried to act nonchalantly, I can't help but hope that Marcus would come to my room to seek me out. Though I knew I was asking for much again, I still can't help but hope that he would appear in my room, ask me to forgive him for yelling at me and taking Victoria's side, but as the clock clicked and the door remained silent, my heart stopped beating in anticipation and all I felt inside me was disappointment.
I closed my eyes, and I couldn't help but wonder what was going on downstairs.
“Are they kissing?” I mumbled to myself, and when I imagined them doing that, I felt my heart ache so much that I thought it’d bleed.
I pursed my lips and tried to stifle my whimpers. I wasn't one to cry easily, and I have been an omega who fights back when bullied, but since I met Marcus, I find myself being weak when it comes to him. I find myself crying whenever I think about how this man might never be mine, and the thought of watching him be together with another person fills me with unhappiness.
Just the thought of it made me boil with rage. My fist shook, my eyes shone with fervour, and my body trembled and worse, when I think about this, all that comes to my mind is the image of Victoria and it made me even more uncomfortable.
Though I knew that Victoria was just one of the lovers of Alpha Marcus, the fact that Marcus had kept her by his side for so long, and even termed her worthy to attend an important dinner with him years ago made me panic a bit.
And though I hadn't thought much of it before, now, as I sat alone, weighed by my fear, it felt like everything became clear to me.
Marcus was a cold person who hated to have people visit his place, and even I am a rare case, but Victoria had come in without a bother and Marcus didn't see anything wrong with that. Besides, she had acted coyly with him but I hadn't seen Marcus pull away as if he was used to this, and lastly…
He had yelled at me for her!
All these gave me an idea of how important Victoria was, and this left me with a bad feeling.
My eyes became colder, my heart beat slowed down, and I couldn't help but recall my moment with Marcus.
The touches that left me breathless, the hot gaze of his that made me nervous until I lost my soul and every being to him, his kiss… they pulled me into the world that belonged to him, and also, the way my body had been trained to only belong to Marcus.
I had gotten used to his pheromones, his fearful energy turned me on instead of making me feel fear. A single touch of his is enough to make me wet and hungry, and… and…
“Darn it!” I swore unable to help the sudden feeling that attacked me by just thinking about him.
I got down from the bed, my legs stepped on the fluffy carpet, and I walked to the mirror I had stood in front of after bathing a few hours ago.
I looked at myself in the mirror, and I stared at my puffy eyes in a daze.
I couldn't help but remember his fierce growl that left me speechless and trembling. And this made me even more sad and broken, but this time, I didn't cry, instead, I remembered my purpose on the day I walked out of the airport when I got back to the country.
I had whispered to the air at that time.
“It doesn't matter if you don't love me, I’ll make sure I make you fall in love with me!”
A smile tugged at the corner of my lips, and my eyes flashed with a beautiful smile. Then, I remembered the day I entered this mansion. How his scent had filled the air the moment I entered, how his aura mixed with his pheromone energy had weakened me to the extent of losing consciousness, and how I had anticipated my days of getting the man I want without caring if he was taken, or if he was the most powerful man I know.
My eyes narrowed, I raised my hand, and slowly touched the mirror that showed my image which was still beautiful even with my puffy eyes.
I caressed my eyes through the mirror, my movement gentle and silk.
“It has always been said that Omegas have the most enchanting eyes. It is said that with omega eyes, she could capture the soul of even the most powerful alpha. And,” I paused, closed my eyes, and when I opened my eyes a second later and looked into the mirror, I felt my heart skip a beat because what returned my gaze wasn't my usual brown eyes, but ones that shone with a golden spark.
The eyes that looked back at me were glassy and moist, but not with real tears, but pheromones that had golden sparks. They shone like unshed gold, and even I felt my body tremble by just looking at them.
I tilted my head in thought, and a beautiful smile finally bloomed on my face.
“So, this is it? The eyes that are enough to steal the soul of anyone…” I muttered silently to myself, my tone filled with awe and love.
I traced my fingers down the mirror, and my eyes followed my movement.
“Who said I can't have him?! Why should I give up when I haven't even tried?! Since Marcus doesn't want the gentleness. Then, I can be fierce too. I want to show him how enchanting I can be. I want to be able to kiss him boldly..” I thought, then rubbed the glass where my lips could be seen.
“I want him to pull me into his arms, and take me fiercely without a care,” I whispered, but they came out like a promise.
I continued to draw down my finger until it got to the neck part, and this time, my eyes shone even more as if I recalled something.
“I want him pull me into his sex room, tie me up, shove his dick into my hole and make me his fiercely!”
I gasped after my words, my thoughts returning from the image of Marcus fucking the omega in that dark room.
“I’ll make this happen, very soon!”
