Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 52: 'Stop flirting with her.'
ROSE Ambrose is Delta of the Silver Ring pack—and one of the two childhood friends of Rum. That explains why Rum is particularly elated by his visit. He literally begged Dan to extend his break to two hours before the next job, which is a magazine photoshoot and interview for his upcoming album. As soon as the elevator to his penthouse opened, Rum dashed out and bolted straight for the ruggedly handsome guy in an army cut, a grey T-shirt and worn jeans. “Goddess, Kee! You look so… so pretty!” Ambrose blushed a little. “Shut up, you dumbass!” Rum laughed and grabbed the visitor for a long-time-no-see hug that ended with a strong pat on each other’s back. Grabbing Ambrose by his shoulders, Rum asked, “How’s everyone? How’s uncle? How’s mother? Is everyone well?” “Calm down, mutt.” Ambrose chuckled. “I’m a little hungry actually. Got anything to eat?” Rum turned to me and, before he said anything, I hastily suggested, “There’s some roast beef left in the fridge. I can he

ROSE So Rum put that term in the contract because werewolves can’t mess with humans? I stared at the marble floor of the elevator, feeling especially glum. Stop it, Rose. You can’t fall in love with Rum anyway. You’re here to make sure he does his job and continues to gift the world with his talent—not do a rom-com with him, Jesus Christ…. “Tsk! Are you upset because you can’t hook up with Ambrose?” I jolted up and looked at that gorgeous face of an angel, its features knitted in bitterness. “No. I’m not.” “That doesn’t sound like it.” “What’s wrong with you? I have colleagues—and some of them are men. Are you telling me to avoid everyone who has balls?” “YES.” My eyes flared up in shock. “You’ve got no right to do that.” “Sure, I do.” His blue eyes turned to a fierce shade. “I’m your fucking boss.” “No, you don’t! You don’t have that kind of right even as my boss.” I refuted firmly. Then, a thought popped into my head. I folded my arms and felt a smug look on my fa
Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 54: 'I'm sorry, Kee.'
AMBROSE I lied. The pack needs you back, Kee. Desperately…. Your mother misses you sorely…. And something doesn’t feel right about your Uncle. He’s… acting strange. When he thinks that no one is looking, he mutters… he whispers… as though he’s talking to someone. But there’s no one around him. I think he’s sick… but he says he isn’t. A Delta follows the orders of a Beta—who acts on behalf of the Alpha. I want to bring you back, Kee. But my orders were: make sure he doesn’t feel the need to ever return. I turned away from the slightly bitten moon, faintly present behind the thick veil of white clouds and blue sky. What can a third rank werewolf do? Can he disobey the acting leader of the pack? What if he exiled my parents? Will we survive the wilderness? Are we willing to give up everything and become rogues? Crushing my fingers in my palms, I moved back indoors and looked around Kee’s quarters—everything was exactly as what I heard in the grapevine that stemmed
Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 55: SPLASH!
ROSE “By the way, have you seen Rum?” I looked up from Ambrose’s shirt to his beaming face as he asked, “He was pacing up and down the pool, checking his… uh… phone? Wondering what time you’ll be here.” Ambrose seems to be adapting well to the human world. “W-Was he?” The werewolf nodded. “It’s fun to watch. But scary to see.” I forced out a chuckle. “He said I was late.” “Did he?” Ambrose inched closer and lowered his voice. “Between you and me: I think Rum likes you.” What? My heart skipped a beat. It can’t be true. He was just making out with Christy…. Ambrose shifted away. Then, he muttered, “Rose?” “It can’t be true.” I heard my voice in a disappointing whisper. “Hmm?” Ambrose crunched his nose. “I can’t be wrong… Rose, I know Rum very well… We’ve known each other since we were cubs… I mean, kids… Rum’s paying a lot of attention to you—that means he likes you….” I sneaked a peek behind Ambrose’s left shoulder and saw Rum’s face disappearing into Christy’s
Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 56: 'Your hot chick of the week! Merry Christmas!'
RUM I watched my assistant as she scurried away like a mouse. Goddamn it! I don’t know why. But every time I look at her, her eyes are on some guy, as though seeking their attention. What the fuck is wrong with her? Why say that you aren’t interested and then keep giving them eye signals? Is she an idiot or what? “... Rum, darling? Are you still with me?” I stared at another one of those perfect faces of smouldering eyes, doll-like lashes, sparkling cheeks and luscious, glossy lips. Who’s this again? Sissy? Meg? Roxy? Amelia? “It’s Faye! We did a commercial together, remember?” She leaned in and purred into my ear, “Wanna find some place quiet and I’ll help you with that memory?” I glanced at Ambrose and the girl that Faye brought along—Sissy was it?—had already thrown herself onto him and was sliding her breasts up and down the man’s chest. With a smirk, I turned to the girl in my arms and saw Rose’s face smiling back at me. WHAT THE FUCK. I blinked and it was Faye
Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 57: 'Right now... as of this fucking second...I want to feel every—.'
ROSE “W-Who was that?” I asked, my eyes closed to fight off the remaining anxiety from the terrifying experience of almost being raped by three drugged models, my face buried in Rum’s chest to hide my embarrassment and shame, my arms hugging his neck like a security blanket as he carried me away from the pool. “Ambrose.” Rum’s silky voice vibrated from his chest to my forehead. Silence fell between us. But I heard the gentle crushing of loose stones under his feet as he padded across the concrete… the sounds of the crazed and dazed crowd muffling to silence… I felt the lights coming on…the droplets of pool water dripping off Rum... the warmth from the bare skin of his chest… the protection from his shirt covering me… and the soft thudding of his heart. His heart was beating fast…. “Are you mad?” I asked. I felt the bobbing in his throat and got my answer: he is mad—and I better shut the fuck up. The rumbling of a car engine seeped into my ears, getting louder with each
Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 58: 'Just pretend I'm those models.'
ROSE My mouth felt dry. My throat felt stuck. W-What was that? Is he on drugs? No. It can’t be. Ambrose said that he felt dizzy for a while so even if Rum did take any, it would’ve already worn off. But why did he say all those… things? Ah… he’s upset. Sex night is ruined and he’s upset. He’s frustrated. I blinked at the dark curls swirling from the heaving flat plane of his chest. “Rum….” My voice sounded like the breeze from the air conditioning. He exhaled in irritation. “What now?” “Are you… sexually frustrated?” “Jesus Christ….” I felt him slap a palm on his forehead and then a groan vibrated from his chest. I lifted myself off him and faced him. “I’m sorry.” His hand jerked down and his eyes flew open—they were in rage. What the fuck are you apologising for? They seemed to ask. “I ruined sex night for you.” I hoped I sounded sincere. It felt weird apologising with the word ‘sex’. But this seems important for Rum, so I gotta respect that. Those bright blue
Starstruck by the Alpha Chapter 59: 'Punish me.'
ROSE As the van sped through the expressway, silence continued to separate us, keeping us to ourselves—me to my thoughts about my unrequited love for a man who belongs to the people and my dilemma to have a fling with him; him… to his nap? Rum hasn’t moved since he flung me aside. Perhaps, he’s fallen asleep. After exiting the expressway, meandering through the maze of city streets, the van finally turned into the luxury apartment building of Rum’s penthouse. I jolted forward in my seat. “David, I think you should send me home first—.” “Rum said to come straight here,” David reported like an army soldier as he turned the steering wheel, and the van swerved into the parking lot. As soon as it stopped, Rum sprung alive, grabbed my wrist and yanked me along with him as he got out. The trip up to the highest floor was quiet at first. Then, I turned to Rum and whispered, “Rum….” “I don’t want to hear anymore of your nonsense talk, Rose. Just stop talking.” “Then why am I h
