Chapter 22

Lucan’s POV

“Hi, Alpha Alfonso,”

Hell no!

That is my mother’s voice

Not when I am about to attack. I will never forgive her for this. What is she doing in the dark? Waiting for him?

She steps out from behind a pillar. How does she have to have this perfect timing? She had stalked Alfonso. When will she ever learn? The man does not want her. Why is she trying to force herself on him?

Alfonso stops walking. He is surprised. When he turns to face her, even in the darkness, I can see the disgust on his face. I can feel it coming out of him

"I was hoping I'd run into you," Elaina continues. Yes, Elaina! Because I cannot refer to her as my mother for now. She is embarrassing me.“ I wanted to talk privately with you"

My goddess! This woman will ruin everything for me. I was this close, this close to killing this man. I am so angry at her, but I cannot show myself without explaining why I was following Alfonso in the first place. So I I say where I am in the dark corners watching and boiling in anger. My mother has destroyed any chance I might have had and it is so annoying. Why does she always have to be your whore?

"I know you were angry at me from earlier" she says, moving closer to Alfonso in a seductive manner. "But I thought to myself that you might be the shy type. You know I know a lot about men and so men are like that. Some men need privacy before they can’t agree to … you know… this whole thing. So I have come to you in this private place, just in case you need privacy.”

“Privacy?” he asks with a more digust in his face. I wonder why she cannot see that she is embarrassing herself. I wonder why she cannot see that he does not want her and this is not the time for her stupid behavior.

"Oh yes," Elaina purrs and I must say she is acting like a fool. Throwing herself at somebody who does not want her. How can she come back here when minutes ago this same man insulted her"I know that you like me too. When I entered the room, I noticed how you looked at me. I know that there is something.com happen between the two of us. I know that the both of us have Chemistry for each other”

I watch as my mother essentially throws herself at my enemy. This is one of her behavior that makes me ashamed to call my mother

"I can do things for you. Anything. I am very good at what I do," she continues, shameless. I can’t see that she is using this seductive voice for him, but to me it is irritating. "You know I can’t do things to you that will make you forget all about business and debts and responsibilities. Things that will make you want to stay here forever."

Alfonso's laugh is cold. "Ha! I see what this is all about. Your son sent you here?"

I am equally shocked. I did not ask her to do this for me. I did not ask for this kind of favour.

"He didn’t send me." Elaina reaches out to touch his arm, and I see Alfonso shift back in irritation. “ I am just trying to let you know the extent at which I am good”. "I know what powerful men like you need. If you would just let me, I would treat you right. I know all these things very well. I know my spice. I know how to make you feel like a man. I will take away all this tension from your body, especially once you have after fighting."

"Just shut up!” Alfonso snaps irritation. There is already a dangerous tone to his voice. "I am not even related to you but I am ashamed of you. You're a desperate old woman throwing herself at any male who she thinks she can gain from.”

My mother loves nervously."Old? I'm not old,” she proceeds to turn around so she can show her body to him. This is when I noticed that she has changed her clothes and she is wearing lingerie now. She continues speaking, “I just have experience. I know how to please a man like you”

Alfonso laughs. He sounds like he is genuinely amused by my mother foolery. "You don't know anything about men like me. Whores do not please men like me. If you claim you know how to please men like me, you would know that you would never please a man like me. You are a whore and men like me despise whores. You are just so eager to spread your legs. You are hoping to catch another husband before you are too worthless to attract more desperate fools."

I can see my that my mother is already feeling so bad and she’s embarrassed already. But she is too gullible to know when to back down. “ I know you don’t mean what you are saying. I dare you to take me to your home. I know that when we are alone…”

"When we're alone, nothing will happen," Alfonso interrupts. "Because I don't fuck whores. You stink of desperation and disgust”

My mother goes quiet for awhile. I know that the words of Alfonso is getting to her. But why is she she still standing there?

"Please," she whispers, and the word is like a knife in my chest digging so deep. "I just... I need..."

"You need to get out of my sight," Alfonso says coldly. "

She backs away finally now. She does not try to seduce him again. "I... I'm sorry," she stammers. "I didn't mean to..."

"Exactly! Whores do not think!” he cuts her off rudely

My mother doesn't answer. Instead, she turns and migrd, disappearing into the darkness after some point. She is gone

Alfonso watches her leave with an expression of complete disgust on his face. “This family is full of disgusting people. It is sad that Alpha Holland had to leave this pack in the hands of stupid and incompetent fools!” I hear him out loud if he is talking to his wolf

His words get to me. Maybe I should just get used to the fact that he is an arrogant person and whatever he says should not get to me. But the more he says hurtful things, the more I feel weak about myself

When he turns back toward where he was going to be before - his quarters, Lulon seed that he is distracted

“Kill him now. While he's distracted,” Lulon says

But I do not have that desire anymore. I start to feel that that is too easy for him. I want him to beg me in this life of his. I want him to be at my some day

“Death is too merciful,” I turn my back and start walking away as soon as Alonso is out of sight. Then I return to my normal body scent.

“You are just weakling !” Lulon which is at my sudden decision

“ I know,” I shrug
