Lahat ng Kabanata ng REJECTED BY THE ALPHA: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

XAVIER'S POV"What the hell are you doing here?!" I hissed with annoyance wrinkling at my brows.She shot me a lewd smile and drew closer."Why can't I be here? I came to get some air too. It's been quite a day." She puffed out a deep sigh as she rested her arm on the railings.I huffed out an exasperated groan. "Alicia...what if Leo catches you here? He's your boyfriend now. You should spend more time with him, not me."She scoffed, rolling her eyes."His name brings me disgust. Will you just forget about your brother while we are together? I'm here with you, Xavier, not with him. Stop ruining the moment with the same old story."I arched my brows at her."Same old story? You're not in love with my brother, are you?"Her brows pinched together in disgust as she shook her head aggressively."Of course not! Why would I be?""Then why did you end things with me, Alicia?" I quizzed, fixing her a suspicious stare.She looked away and gazed at the moon. A tight-lipped smile graced her red

CRYSTAL'S POVI yelped in shock as the booming voice from the door startled us.I gasped in astonishment to see Xavier's huge frame filling the entrance of the door.That wasn't the only reason I was shocked. My eyes dipped lower as my jaw gaped wide open like a fish on a hook to see the beautiful banquet of flowers he was holding on his left hand. Flowers?!! For me? Was he really serious right now? What the hell was going on here? Was there some sort of contest going on because why on earth did the Fernández brothers both come to give me an expensive looking banquet of flowers? Or perhaps it wasn't meant for me but for Alicia? Don't be lame, Crystal, the look of puzzlement in his eyes said otherwise. It was most definitely for you!Hold on! Someone, please wake me up .This had better be a dream!! I'm screaming mentally right now and flapping my hands like a bird! Xavier just got me flowers???!!! What for?!But this wasn't the time to get excited. We have far more important things

ALICIA'S POVWho the hell does he think he was? Acting all mighty and domineering?! Humph! I clicked my tongue and rolled my eyes in exasperation. The nerve of Leo to send me out like that! I didn't even do anything wrong, I was merely being logical! He had to kick me out like he was scolding some seven-year-old child. What the hell was his problem anyway?But I wondered what transpired at Xavier's private chambers... Was Crystal involved? What could possibly have gone down there, and why was Leo's face so battered like that? There were so many unanswered questions and I was dying of curiosity. Even though I tried to eavesdrop, it would be hopeless because the door was metal. I could barely hear what was going on at the other side of the door.Perhaps I should take a stroll towards Xavier's chambers in the hopes of running into any clues that might tell me what had happened there.I didn't necessarily have to enter into his inner chambers. Of course, it's forbidden unless I was

ALICIA'S POVI got him! He appeared uneasy about what I said. Does he know?I gingerly stepped into his chambers, but it felt weird for some reason today. I mean, this was literally where I stayed with Leo, so why does it feel weird? Maybe it was because, this time, I was aware that Leo was drifting apart from me, no thanks to Crystal Thorne. That stupid slave girl was the cause of it. And of course, she would pay for it. I will think of something tonight; it was very important that I devised a plan to bring her closer to me. I had to find a way to poison her mind somehow; to make her hate Xavièr Fernández; to make her separate from him, giving me an opening to attack her and whisk her out of the picture once and for all.But first, it was important that I convince Leo to stay away from her. But would I be able to do just that? Knowing how inherently stubborn Leo was, it may be difficult to attain that. What could I possibly do? Even if it was to plant the seed of doubt into his mi

XAVIER'S POVWhen my eyes caught a glimpse of the banquet of flowers he held in his hands, I was utterly enraged. How dare my brother get her flowers?! He didn't have the right to! Crystal Thorne was my mate and not his. I don't know why he was still adamant and stubborn to accept the fact.No matter how hard he tried, Crystal was mine, and it didn't matter if he had once claimed her and even rejected her. She was mine, and that was on period.If he tried to act funny or cunny I don't know what else I might do to him. He had better steer clear from Crystal Thorne, or else he would see the full wrath of my anger. Today was just the tip of the iceberg, and he should just count himself lucky that I didn't unleash my full wrath on him. I was almost about to lose it when I found my brother, Leo, alone with my mate in my private chambers! I had no idea how long they had been together, but judging from the situation of things and how uncomfortable Crystal looked, I knew he had been forcing
