Rejected by the Beta, Craved by the Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 111 - チャプター 120

I stood rooted to my spot as I tried to come up with a reasonable explanation as to what was happening. Maybe I was being delusional and simply hallucinating? Or perhaps, somehow, I'd managed to cry myself into a state of shock where anything and absolutely everything could be possible. Because tell me why, I just had to be surrounded by literally the very same people I didn't want to see. “Alyssa?” My blood ran cold at the sound of my name. It was from one person and if someone had told me a time would come where the sound of my name on his tongue would no longer give me butterflies, I would have laughed my head off right at that person. I guess fate did have it's many ways of fucking you over. “ Is that really you?”I pressed my eyes shut, trying my possible beat to tune him out, but it didn't work. The more I tried,the more memories of us started to surface in my mind. “Please look at me.” No matter how mad, how heartbroken I was, I doubted I could stay away from him.

Cameron Time ceased to exist as we all stared each other down, each one of us silently daring the other to move. It was impossible though, we were currently a circle of three different people, so the probability of anyone backing down anytime soon was actually quite low. “What the hell was that supposed to mean?” Bennett spoke up, something unreadable lying underneath his words. I knew exactly what it was, but I ignored it. I wasn't going to indulge him yet. “Cameron!” He yelled again after not getting a response from me. If he wasn't careful, I still wouldn't answer him and he would have to make do with that, whether he liked it or not. “ Have you suddenly gone dead?”“It depends on who's asking.” I finally quipped. “Have you finally come to your senses now?” “What is wrong with you?” Bennett seethed. “ What the fuck has gotten into you?”“Definitely what hasn't gotten to y

“Are you sure you want to do this, sir?” The voice behind me reached my ears. A quick comeback hung on the tip of my lips, but I held back. Not yet. “ I can arrange something else for you. I'm not trying to impose or anything, I'm just asking because you asked to cancel all of your meetings today.”Silence. I made no move to answer as I kept on walking, my destination painfully etched into my memory. Right now, nothing else mattered more than getting there, no matter how hard the idiot behind me rambled. “Sir?” He called out again and I ground my teeth in anger. I was sure if I kept it on for long, he was bound to hear the sound of my teeth grating against each other and he would take the hint. On second thought, knowing how dumb my employees were, that was actually unlikely. “ Sir, are you listening to me? Also, with the number of potential customers there I feel it's unlikely that we reach a reasonable agreement today and if we don't, it'll be a total waste of time and effort

I refused to, I refused to believe it that just like that my fate had been sealed. I'd been bought, sold like some sort of commodity in the market, but that wasn't the worst part. I had no idea who my buyer was. Not even a face to pinpoint and rain curses in the middle of the night. Just a low, smooth and velvety voice to pin the beginning of my suffering on. "Amore." Papa's voice reached my ears. It was a little in the distance but I could hear it quite well. "Amore, where are you?" I said nothing.There was nothing I could say. So I sat there, rooted in my spot with my knees up to my chest as I stared out of the window. The wall length window made it easy to check out the scenery below. From my room up on the first floor, I could make out really small details in the town below. It was dark and supposedly chilly, if the people that hurdled together was a good indication. Even nature understood what I was going through, sadness, disappointment, anger. I hadn't found the right person

I woke up with a start, my lungs begging for air. The ringing in my ears made it hard to think or comprehend anything and the ache in my head was threatening to split my skull into two. I tried to open my eyes but even I knew that would hurt. Literally Out of options, I peeled open my eyes, gently, hoping the very act would somehow subdue the pain. I was wrong, very wrong. I winced as the first few seconds with my eyes open were blurry. I blinked back twice just to come face to face with pristine white walls that seemed to cave in around me, with a red source of light at the top . It seemed to be radiating some sort of heat hence the really hot atmosphere. I took a deep breath and regretted it immediately. I squirmed as It trailed a fiery blaze down my lungs. My skin began to itch and I felt uncomfortable. My throat was parched and my skin sticky with sweat. The slimy liquid stuck to my clothes, making me all the more irritable and frustrated.It took me a good while to realize I wa
