Sold To An Alpha

Chapter 15 - Minutes

Mr. Adolpho's eyes suspiciously darted around and fell on a young girl seated by the window with a bat stick in her hand. He gazed intently at her, and a complicated glint flashed in his eyes. He was sure that something was fishy, considering how suspicious his daughters were acting. His brow crinkled and his face grimaced in annoyance. Something is still off.

"Father, is something wrong?" Leia asked, with a warm smile on her lips. She stared at her father, who was gazing at her with narrowed eyes, and she couldn't help but smirk internally. She would be so foolish as to let herself get caught. She had already planned everything and made sure to make it back in time to tidy everything up. Although, if Amy hadn't stalled him for a little bit, she might have been caught.

Mr. Adolpho gazed at her for a while and subconsciously shook his head. "Nothing is wrong... I just want to check up on you." He smiled warmly, with his eyes still viciously staring at her. "As I promised you, your expensive and gorgeous dress has arrived."

"Really?" Leia raised her brow, pretending to be surprised, and a wide smile formed on her lips. "I am excited to see it." She cupped her hands together, and a dangerous glint flashed in her eyes.

"You should be excited. Your big day is next tomorrow." He chuckled cheerfully and gazed at her for a moment. "My men will bring you down tomorrow to see your dress. For now, you need to rest." He gave her a warm smile and glanced at his daughters who stood by the door. He ambled past them and walked out of the attic. 

Leia took a relieved breath when he left and glanced at Amy, who was staring at her with dilated eyes. "What?" She raised her eyebrows in a questioning manner.

Amy fluttered her eyes and scurried towards her. "When did you arrive back? I almost had a heart attack." She pouted with a grimaced face.

"Minutes ago." Leia shrugged with no expression on her face.

Amy clutched her chest and took a deep, relieved breath. "So glad you made it back on time. We would have been dead meat if you hadn't." A half-smile formed on her lips as she gazed at Leia, who had her eyes fixed on the bat stick in her hand. She drew in closer and sat down beside her.

"Ehem..." Jenny, who stood by the door, cleared her throat to remind them that she was still around. Leia averted her gaze from the bat stick in her hand and glanced at her. A deep hostility flashed in her eyes, and she scowled within.

Amy glanced at Jenny, and she couldn't help but click her tongue in annoyance. She shook her head and gazed at her with a grimaced face.

Leia resumed gazing at the sky, totally ignoring Jenny, whose face was turning shades darker. A vicious glint flashed in Jenny's eye, and she glared at both of them. She stomped her feet on the floor in annoyance, and with a turn, she left the attic.

Amy shook her head in bewilderment and turned her head to stare at Leia.

"What?" Leia glanced at her with a slight frown on her face.

"What did you leave to do?" Amy nudged her on the elbow and wiggled her brow funnily.

"Why do you want to know?" Leia shoved her away and raised her creased brow at her.

"Well, I helped you escape for a while. Don't you think I deserve to know?" Amy's face puckered a little, and she gazed intently at Leia.

Leia rolled her eyes and dropped the bat stick in her hand to the floor. She pulled her shirt and slipped out of it, revealing her whole body filled with different unique and beautiful flowery tattoos. 

Amy's jaw fell and her eyes dilated. What was she seeing? This was a work of art! A masterpiece. She reached out her hand and traced the beautiful artwork on Leia's body. She smiled with wide eyes and shook her head in disbelief. "Wow... just wow... It looks so beautiful." She caressed it and couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle. A pessimistic expression made its way to her face, and she lowered her head. "I am sorry."

Leia wore back her shirt and turned to stare at Amy with a bewildered expression on her face. "Sorry for what? She asked with furrowed brows.

"For everything you have gone through from that year till this day, I am sorry." Little tears welled up in her eyes, and she kept her head low, refusing to look at Leia.

Leia's creased brow deepened, and a complicated expression emerged on her face. She reached out her hand to touch Amy on the back, but changed her mind and retracted her hand. She let out a deep sigh and gazed at the sky. "Don't be sorry." She said this without looking at Amy.

Amy sniffed and lifted her lowered head. She glanced at Leia, and a half-smile formed on her lips. "You will always be my best friend, no matter what." She moved closer to Leia and tightly embraced her.

Leia's eyes broadened and a slight frown emerged on her face. She gently shoved Amy away and glared at her, "Don't try that next time."

Amy rolled her eyes and laughed softly. She shook her head, and her lips twisted funnily. "Gosh, you're so cold. It's not good for a girl. " She blinked her eyes and stole a peek at Leia, whose face was turning a few shades darker.

Her jaw fell, and she fluttered her eyes in bewilderment. This simple statement of hers had Leia's face turn ashen. She shook her head in disbelief and smiled at her. 

"Jeez." She mumbled with a grimaced face and lowered her head. Leia, who heard her mumble, averted her stare from her and gazed at the sky.. A slight smile formed on her lips when she heard Amy still murmuring with a lowered head.
