Alpha Princess’s Possessive Mate - Chapter 216
*Selene’s PoV*
Infuriating, utterly infuriating! Fang crossed all his lines with what he did. I splashed the water which accumulated in the cup of my hands on my face before letting my hands rest on the sink counter. Eyes focused on the running tap water, I clicked my tongue. Why did I even let him do all that… It is all the fault of my stupid wolf. I couldn’t even control my own wolf.
“AHHHH, stupid idiot!”
I screamed before my head snapped up to look in the mirror and there she was at the bathroom entrance. Hailey Cermesi.
“Someone is having fun alone,” Hailey commented as she walked inside and there was another girl who walked in from behind her. That girl probably heard my scream as well. When my eyes shifted to the unknown girl, Hailey turned around and pushed her out effortlessly, “Make sure no one enters here or I’ll slice your throat.” Hailey locked the door and sighed, “This is much better.” My eyes squinted at Hailey when both of us heard the stall door open. How much did I have to embrace myself in one single moment!
The girl who had just come out walked casually to the sink and washed her hands before keeping her huge purse on the counter.
Her eyes were looking at us as if she was superior here. No doubt she was beautiful and stuff, but it was stupid for us two Alphas standing in the command bathroom. I thought Hailey would warn this one as well but I should have known her patience. As the girl removed a lipstick to touch up her makeup, Hailey was behind her in the blink of an eye. The girl turned, ready to fight like a true werewolf but Hailey grabbed her throat and slammed her down, “When your superior order, you bow and obey.”
“Who do you think you are?” the girl questioned with arrogance while clearly struggling with Hailey’s strength.
Hailey growled, “Know your place when you talk to a-”
“We need to do maintenance here,” I shouted over Hailey’s words, “There is a plumbing issue and we are the hotel staff.”
Hailey looked at me, ridiculed by the reason I came up with, “No we aren’t.”
“Yes, we are,” I suggested as I widened my eyes at her. I walked to them and pulled Hailey away from holding that girl down, “I- uh ma’am, please head out or there might be sudden pipe leak and ruin your nice dress.”
“Wuss,” Hailey rolled her eyes before jerking out of my hold.
The arrogant girl got up, “You mere hotel staff should know your place better.” I nodded and bowed to apologise but the girl crossed her arms, “What are you doing you, pink-haired idiot? Better apologise for what you did. Do you know I am a gold member here!”
“I won’t,” Hailey smiled at her.
“Please head outside, ma’am,” I spoke with impatience this time with a rather heavy tone. This was going to be a fight of ego. There was no one better than an Alpha when it came to having a mountain of ego.
The girl stepped ahead, “Watch your tone, you lowlife. Better tell your colleague to bow as well or I will ask the tavern staff to make you lick my foot and apologise.”
Hailey stepped ahead, ready to throw a fist when I stopped her. My lips curled in a polite smile, “Sure go ahead. Please make sure you go till the owner of this tavern.” The girl just snapped at my words. The disbelief was clear on her face. Surely no one had talked to her like this before and given the fact that this side of Greenland did not have any Alpha rule, made it more obvious she had never faced one.
“Oh, that was a nice one,” Hailey commented as she patted my back.
“You swine!” the girl fumed before raising her hand to slap me hard across the face. Hailey was quick to hold her hand and twisted it behind her back. Next thing, Hailey grabbed the girl’s red lipstick and drew a clown make-up around her face. “What are you doing you bitch!” the girl screamed but like she could move in Hailey’s grip. When Hailey was done, she let go of the girl and the girl turned around with rage filled in her eyes, “How dare you-”
“Here, let me help you wash it off,” I commented before I held her neck and dunk her face in the sink filled with water. Pulling her out as she gasped for air, I looked at her, “Maybe you need a little more cleaning.” I pushed her head again in the water as she struggled.
When I got her up this time, she was gasped in disbelief. Hailey laughed, “I think this is better. Get out now before you make any more fool out of yourself.”
The girl stumbled before grabbing her belongings, “You will suffer, both of you.” She bolted out faster than how her mouth was running a while back. Hailey put her arm around my shoulder and we looked at each other, an odd look of satisfaction in our eyes before we turned to her and waved her bye.
“Visit again, gold member,” Hailey shouted and I couldn’t help but chuckle.
I walked away from Hailey, bending down to pick up my now wet sling bag. If it wasn’t for Fang who made me stand in the rain, I would have had some dry clothes to change into.
“I had a hunch you’d be fun,” Hailey said while leaning against the counter by her bottom while folding her arms.
I looked at her before going back to my bag to check if I had anything dry left, “I am not your type of fun Hailey. About this girl… It was some other irritation which drained on her.”
“Oh, you mean Fang?” Hailey asked without hesitation.
I smiled at her, a smile which did not reach my eyes, “And you.”
“Damn, what did I do to you?” Hailey exclaimed dramatically, “I thought because of that big red mark Fang left on your neck.” Hailey pulled at my fabric without warning and I pulled back quickly. I had missed it a while back because of the turtle neck but now that I saw there was a hickey on my neck!
“That… Ahhhhh, I am gonna kill him,” My fist punched the mirror and it shattered on the counter.
Hailey did not flinch from her place simply laughed, throwing her head back, “Look at you dating two Warchilds at one time.”
“I am dating no one Hailey,” I said in an irritated tone before going through my bag.
Hailey shrugged, “I mean, I wouldn’t mind being your third fling you know. I am fine with girls as well.” I looked at her with a giant ‘seriously’ face. Before going back to my search. “So which one do you like better?” Hailey asked curiously as I kept ignoring her, “Come on, I mean I have been with Fang. He is amazing in bed and very easy to deal with. I couldn’t be Channing because my sister was his soulmate.”
I sighed, “are you done?”
Hailey laughed before patting my shoulder and walking away, “I was just here to confirm about Fang but that hickey was enough answer, so I’ll be leaving first.”
“Hailey,” I stopped her. She raised her eyebrows questioningly while her fingers wrapped around the bathroom main door. “You should be smart enough to not use your actual name and the fact that you are a Warchild for some time. Not until we find what happened to your clan.”
“Pfft~ you mean that building which was attacked? Don’t worry, it happens every time people confirm our location,” Hailey responded.
My brows creased, “Every time?”
“Yeah,” Hailey responded in a bored tone, “I mean, no one wants an assassin clan around them, right? No big deal.” It was fair logic. Why would a tourist district have assassins around? And the more I looked around west Greenland, it looked more like some shady organisation running it. “Hey don’t use your big brains. They would be somewhere around this part. We never leave the west,” Hailey assured before opening the door, “Also, Fang loves submissive girls just like you, keep it up. I don’t like giving such stupid advice, but you could use it.”
“What do you mean, I am submissive?” I asked as I gritted my teeth just at the thought of even submitting an ounce of me.
“Well, I saw you guys in the alley when I came back to call you both,” Hailey said, “I mean you really hide a lot of your desire for him.” I opened my mouth to reply but Hailey just spoke up, “But you know that is not what actually surprised me. I mean, the way you handle his dominance… Are you even an Alpha if you can’t be pissed by that? We used to clash a lot because of our Alpha nature, the reason we went on only for a month. What is wrong with your Alpha nature?”
Her words left me speechless. She was right and somewhere I did realise about myself, around Fang. “Just leave,” I said and Hailey shrugged before leaving me alone.
I sighed before turning back to my baggage. There was no use thinking about it so much. I shuffled through everything, I could not find a single thing that was dry.
Though Hailey was saying to not worry, I felt like either she was tricking me or was going to lead me to a dead end. It was so tough to trust a girl like her, after all. Over it all, Fang was here to mess with my head. I clicked my tongue as I closed my eyes, wishing I could just go out to buy new clothes but how could I when even my money was soaking wet? How bad do things always have to be?
I turned around, opening my eyes as I was startled by an obvious tavern staff. She bowed before handing me a package, “Please use whatever is to your taste. You can keep the rest in your storage.”
“Umm, what is this?” I questioned while opening the large package, which looked rich even with the way it was packed.
The lady spoke, “It is a change of clothes for you. Minister says he is sorry you had to face this because of him. If you do not like anything, please let us know. I let the minister know so he can pick some more outfits for you, he picked out these especially for you.”
“I- um…no this much will be fine, I am sure I will like something out of the bundle,” I replied while undoing the ribbon around the wrapped packing.
It was frustrating enough that Fang picked these out for me and now I had to wear them, but as the waitress said, it was his fault, to begin with. It was only fair Fang paid.
