REJECTED: The Alpha Behind The Mask

Victoria’s POV

I stood up and wandered in the room as I reckoned on the dream I had few minutes ago.

In the dream, I saw Eric and DOM Tim standing before me with their hand stretched out to me, asking me to choose one of them.

I stared at Eric who has a pity look on his face full of guilt, but I totally ignored him and moved my gaze to DOM Tim who was masked up, staring and smiling at me with his hands out to me.

Without a second thought, I ran to DOM Tim and was about hugging him, but he took a step away from me.

”What’s wrong.” I asked in fear, but he stared at Eric, who just stood there with no emotion on his face.

”I think you should go to him.” DOM Tim muttered while taking another step away from me.

I stared at DOM Tim shocked and stunned before settling my gaze on Eric who still has no expression on his face.

”Why would you ask me to do such.”? I asked while trying to step closer to him, but he took a step backward.

”He has double of whatever I could give you.” he murmured those words while he took another steps away from me.

”No.” I yelled in anger and hatred, ”I will never have anything to do with this man.” I yelled those words and stared at Eric with so much anger and hatred.

Again, I tried moving closer to DOM Tim, but he vanished into the thin air, which forced me out of my sleep.

I walked around the room with so many thoughts in my head.

The dream was indeed strange, but it looks so real and familiar.

Tiredly, I released a heavy sigh and continued wandering in the room when I heard Sonia’s voice. ”And what is the meaning of this.” she sounded irritated while pointing at the light that was put on.

I shook my head at her behavior and went for the switch of the light.

This was strange, Sonia saw me awake in the middle of the night, and wasn’t concerned about it.

Sighing heavily, I switched off the light. Slowly, I made my way to the couch and sat on it.

”It was just a dream.” I whispered to myself and took in a deep breath before forcing myself to sleep.

I woke up the next morning and realize I was still sleeping on the couch.

Quickly I stood up, went to the bathroom, and took my bath. I came back to the room and was bringing out clothes from the closet when I noticed Sonia was awake.

She stood up from the bed and went to the bathroom, after a few minutes she came out of the bathroom, walked back to the bed and sat on down with her two eyes on me.

”Have you made your decision yet ?” she asked, while I just shook my head and closed the closet.

”If you want to keep the pregnancy, then you have to tell them about this.” She suggested.

”I can’t.” I murmured and picked up the clothes from the bed.

I can’t see myself telling them such things, how can I possibly stand before Tim and said those hurtful words to him.

”If you can’t then what are you going to do.”she asked

”I don’t know, I’m just taking one step at a time.” I mumbled those words to her and began dressing up.

After dressing up, I picked up my bag and left the room.

I paid a visit to aunt at the hospital, and was on my way back home when I noticed a car stopped In front of me.

I ignored the car and continued searching around for a taxi until the person in the car came out.

Seeing who was in the car, I became angry and irritated.

”Where are you going ?”

”None of your business.” I murmured while trying to move away from him, but he took hold of my hand.

”Let go of me.” I muttered out in anger and tried removing his grip on me, but he tightened is grip on me.

”Relax.” He expressed those words as an order.

Hearing those words, I hated how my body submitted to his words.

”Let me take you to wherever you are going.” he muttered those words and opened the passengers’ door for me,

”Please go in.”

I stared at him and decided to follow him instead of causing a scene here.

I entered the car while he closed the door and sat on the driver’s seat before driving out.

We drove in an awkward silence until he cleared his throat and broke the silence, ”Were you coming from the hospital?” He asked with his gaze still on the road.

I heard him but acted like I did not hear him.

He drove in total silence until he stopped in front of my house.

”Thanks.” I murmured and tried opening the door but realized the door was locked which made me turned around and met eyes with him.

”And what is the meaning of this.” I spoke in anger.

He took in a deep breath before speaking up, ”Can I talk to you” He sounded as a plead

”No”. I bluntly refused.

He sighed heavily and ran his fingers through his hair before speaking, ”You are my mate Victoria, you have to accept it.”

Hearing those words from him, I felt anger run through my blood and I couldn’t control it anymore.

”I’m not your mate and will never be your mate.” I declared those words in a serious tone.

”We hated each other, remember?” I yelled while he shook his head but did not say a word.

”let me go.” I shouted at the top of my voice and this time He nodded his head before I heard a click of the door, indicating the door has been unlocked.

”Thank you.” I murmured in anger and opened the door.

I walked to my apartment door, opened the door and entered the room without looking back even though I knew he was still staring at me.

I threw my bag on the bed, sat on the couch with so many thoughts in my head.

I can’t tell Eric about this pregnancy, I don’t think I will be able to bear it if the baby happens to be his, I don’t think I can take it.

Heaving a deep breath, I pulled off my shoes and was taking off my clothes when I heard my phone ringing, I checked the caller and realized it was DOM Tim calling.

Hurriedly, I picked up the call with a big smile on my face, and placed it on my ear.

”Hello.” I muttered out, happily.

”Hello Vicky.” he responded in a calm, cool voice. ”How are you. ” He asked.

”I’m fine.” I responded cheerily.

”I miss you and wish to see you but right now, I’m on my way to the airport I need to leave for china for a business deal, but I will be back in the next three days.” He announced.

Hearing those words from him, I frowned before uttering, ”That means I won’t see you in the next three days.” I murmured like a kid, while He chuckled over the phone for a while before speaking. ”Stop acting like a kid.” He teased,

I rolled my eyes but didn’t say a word.

I heard him took a deep breath before speaking up, ”I will show you my face and answer all your questions once I’m back.” he expressed those words as a promise.

Those words from him were supposed to make me happy, but strangely I became scared and anxious.

”Vicky.” he called out my name when he noticed the line was silent.

”I’m listening, I’m just so happy.” I lied.

”I see, I have to go now, but I will call you once I’m in China.”

”Alright, have a safe trip.”

”Thank you.” he said and ended the call on me.

I lay on the bed with my back, as his words kept echoing in my head.

I was anxious and scared at the same time. I wanted to see his face, I’ve been the one begging to see his face, and now that the opportunity to see his face is near, I’m so anxious and scared.

I knew he was incredibly handsome by the looks of his eyes, and sometimes I imagined him as a look like to Eric.

He has thick black hair, a smooth-spaded shaped beard, a dark bristly mustache, broad shoulders, two sets of green sparkling eyes and incredibly full lips.

Eric was indeed handsome and attractive, but with a disgusting personality.

I knew DOM Tim was handsome, but then again I was scared for no good reason.

Tiredly, I opened the fridge to make a simple lunch when I noticed there were no carrots and cabbage in the fridge.

Groaning tiredly, I closed the fridge, picked up my bag from the bed, opened it and took out some cash before leaving the room.

I walked for a bit before getting to the supermarket.

I went to the vegetable stand and brought a few things we would be needing at home.

I took them to the cashier, paid for the goods and was about to walk away when I bumped into someone.

”So sorry.” I apologized and tried walking away, but he called out my name.

”Victoria.”

I turned around, and immediately I knew who it was. I mean, how could I possibly forget this face.

He smiled widely at me before taking my two hands and placed kisses on them.

”You look more beautiful each passing day.” he smiled at me before letting go of my hands.

I smiled back at him with shyness before looking away.

”What is a prince doing here?” I asked, while he just beamed at me before speaking, ”I was tasty and noticed there was no water in my car, so I decided to get a bottle of water here.”he explained with a friendly smile on his face.

I smiled and nodded my head at him, while he smiled at me before staring at the bags in my hands.

”You are leaving already?” he asked

”Yeah”

”Give me a minute.” he did not let me say a word before he quickly walked away.

I released a soft breath I never knew I was holding.

Standing before Liam was a big deal to me because everything about this man speaks power and authority. His presence alone intimidates me, and it took everything in me to stand before him and talk.

”Let’s go. ” he smiled at me before leading the way.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

We went outside while he led me to his car. We got to his car and he offered to open the door for me, but I rejected.

”My house is just at a corner.” I tried rejecting his offer because I didn’t think I would be able to be in the same car with him.

”I can take you there, I’m not complaining.” he smiled at me and showed me the door. Seeing that I couldn’t reject his offer, I decided to just go in.

I entered the car while he smirked at me and closed the door before entering the driver’s seat.

”You drive yourself.” I asked,

”Most times, yes.”

I nodded my head and directed him the way to my apartment.

Within a few minutes, we were in front of my apartment.

”Thanks, I really appreciate.” I flashed him a grateful smile before looking away.

”You are welcome.” he beamed at me and sniffed deeply.

”I have to go.” I mumbled nervously and tried opening the door, but he took hold of my hand and made me glare directly into his eyes with fear.

”Any problem.” I asked in a shattering voice, which he ignored and closed his eyes while he took a deep breath before opening his eyes.

”You are pregnant.” he declared those words like he was so sure of it.

Hearing those words from him, my eyes widened in fear as a cold shiver ran through my body.

How could he know I was pregnant, I’m just two weeks gone. How can he possibly see it.

”What are you talking about.” I tried moving away from him, but he tightened his grip on me before speaking, ”Don’t bother denying it, I’m never wrong.” he flashed me a weak smile before letting go of my hand.

”You haven’t told him yet, why?” he asked.

”Who are you talking about.” I asked, confused.

”Eric, you haven’t told Eric.” he declared those words like he was so sure of it.

I stared at him shocked and confused before speaking up, ”How did you know all that?” I asked in curiosity.

”It’s a gift. Every one of our kind has their gift gifted to them by the moon goddess. Mine happens to be the gift of seeing past events, but not all events, just a few. If I hold your hands I might be able to see few past events in your life, but not all, and I’m still training, so I could be able to see everything.” he explained to me with a smile on his face.

Hearing those words from him, I felt a cold shiver run through my spine, and nervously I moved away from him before he sees things I didn’t want him to see.

”So why haven’t you let Eric know about the baby?” he asked with his eyes on me.

”Eric is not responsible for my pregnancy.” I muttered angrily.

Liam raised his eyebrows confused, as he stared at me, ”What are you saying?”

It was obvious he did not see DOM Tim in his vision, and I was happy about that.

”You heard me right, Eric is not responsible for my pregnancy.” I blurted out.
