Sold To An Alpha

A few minutes passed, and Leia walked out with her body draped in a short white towel and her hair wrapped up with a towel as well.

Her eyes fell on Adrik, who sat on the sofa with crossed legs and his phone in his hand. She glanced at his hair, which was scattered on the couch, and she guessed he was waiting for her.

She strode to him and signaled him to the chair with a small tilt of her head. Adrik nodded and stood up from the divan, then strolled to the seat in front of the wide mirror at the table and sat down.

He peeked at Leia through the mirror and watched her take care of his hair. She gave it a comb and brushed it, then let it fall. "Do you want it in a ponytail? I can't band it up into a bun because it has become too long now, and even if I do, it will look quite messy." Leia gazed at him through the mirror with a questioning expression on his face.

"Alright." That was all he said to her and crossed his legs as his eyes watched her. 

Leia nodded and pulled his hair up into a neat ponytail, using a gel product to perfect the edge of his hair when she was done.

"Done." She smiled at him, and Adrik glanced at himself through the mirror. He nodded in satisfaction and stood up from the seat.

He picked his phone up from the table and proceeded to leave. However, Leia grabbed him by the arm and stopped him. "Do you have to go to work today? I mean, it could wait till you have recovered." 

Adrik turned to her and gazed at her with no expression on his face. He snatched his arm from her and turned around to leave. "I will be fine." With that being said, he ambled out of the room, shutting the door behind him.

Leia let out a sigh and scratched her head. 'I thought he forgave me last night. Why is he still cold to me?' Her face grimaced in confusion as she thought, and she turned around to saunter into the dressing room.

Adrik worked in his office throughout the day, and when it seemed like it was breaking dawn soon, he left his office and drove to his estate. He rode into the compound and stepped down from the car.

He glanced at the mansion, which was quite tall and well decorated. Its body wasn't built of almost glass, like his other mansions... but rather it was walled but beautiful. In the middle was a fountain that was sculpted in the shape of an Alpha wolf, quite bigger than the one at the mansion where he lives with Leia.

He yanked his hands into his pocket and elegantly walked into the manor. His men that were taking care of the manor bowed deeply at him. "Supreme Alpha." He nodded at them and continued to walk further into the house.

He stopped at a certain wall and placed his hands on it. Reading his palmprint, the wall turned, revealing a secret room that no one knew about.

Adrik stepped in and the wall closed back. He stepped down wooden stairs and finally arrived at a dark chamber, except for the light from the white bulb, which didn't spread its light across the room. Without glancing around, he strolled straight to a silver wide chair that looked like a royal seat and gently sat down. He crossed his legs, spread his arms to each side, and playfully tapped on the chair armrest.

"Bring her out." He said it in a calm, yet chilling voice and his lips curled into a dangerous smile.

From the dark, Alex walked out with two men dressed in black suits following behind while dragging a young lady whose head was hung low as though exhausted.

They threw her to the floor a little distance in front of Adrik and she immediately raised her eyes to glance at Adrik, who looked so elegant with the white mask on the lower part of his face. "Adrik!" She said it in a tone that held deep fear and hurriedly lowered her head to avoid his gaze.

Adrik chuckled softly at her behavior and stood up from the chair. He walked to her and placed his hand on her sweaty cheek, then lifted her head to have her look at him.

"Cathryn," Adrik said her name, and she wasn't so oblivious to the deadly icy tone in his accent. She shivered uncontrollably when she heard the soft, deadly laugh that exited his mouth, and she instantly lowered her head and began to sob. "Adrik, please forgive me. Please let me go. I swear I will make up for my wrongdoing." She grabbed Adrik's hand, but a merciless slap from Adrik landed on her cheek, causing her to fall heavily on the floor and her cheek shortly swelled up.

"Filthy hands!" Adrik tsked as he stood up and walked back to his chair, then sat down and crossed his legs again. 

His eyes lazily gazed at Lady Cathryn, who had her hand clutching her cheek, and his face became completely stern and cold.

Lady Cathryn's body shook violently, and she once again cupped her hands at Adrik's with tears raining down her face. "Adrik, please spare me. For the sake of my poor daughter, who has no one but me, please spare my life." Her voice quivered as she wailed nonstop. She would be a fool not to know that whatever was coming ahead might spell her death.

Adrik's brow raised, and as though amused, he laughed softly in a chilly tone that would send shudders down anyone's body. "Your poor daughter..." He nodded his head as though pondering something and stared at Lady Cathryn with merciless eyes. 

"You were quite a fearless woman... I want you to be that way right now because what's ahead, you might not be able to endure. " He smiled behind the mask latched onto his face and raised his lethal eyes to glance at Alex.

Alex nodded and glared at the two men standing behind Lady Cathryn. They hurriedly grabbed Lady Cathryn and pulled her up from the cold floor.

Then they began to haul her towards an iron chair that had chains, and she couldn't help but kick her legs around and struggle to free herself. "Let me go!!! Let go of me!!! Help!!! Somebody help!!! "

The grin on Adrik's face widened, and he relaxed back in his silver seat.. "Begin" He commanded in a calm yet dangerous voice and interlocked his hands.
