Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 109
Adrik’s body trembled uncontrollably, and his eyes fluttered in pain. He slowly walked towards the tub and squatted down to its level.
He gazed at Leia’s face, and his heart squeezed tightly within him when he saw the drops of tears falling from her eyes. What happened?
He reached out his hand and gently caressed her cheek.
Leia’s eyes opened, and she stared at the ceiling. “Little wife…” Adrik whispered, and she turned her head to glance at him, only to see his eyes wet as though teardrops were about to fall from them.
She stared at him but uttered not a word as the tears in her eyes never ceased falling.
Adrik stood up and dug his hands into the water, wrapping them around her body. He gently lifted her from the bathtub and rain of water fell from her wet body. “Little wife…” He whispered her name once again, and Leia’s eyes blinked once as they gazed at him.
Ever so gently, he carried her out of the bathtub and laid her down on the floor that was devoid of any pieces of the broken bottles. Then he knelt in front of her.
He hugged her tightly, and when he tried to stroke her back, something liquid tainted his fingers, and he couldn’t help but glance at her back.
The moment his gazes fell on her back, his eyes, which had returned to their green color, changed to golden and darkened.
He glanced at her and then to her back, and he roughly grabbed her shoulder, staring deep into her eyes. “Why?”
“Tell me why you’re hurting yourself this way! I was going to come home and hug you tightly, not to see this! It hurts to see you like this!! Just why? ” He shook her as he threw every question, but Leia uttered not a single word, however, a low whimper came from her and her tears flowed down to her cheek, dropping onto the floor.
Adrik’s heart ached painfully within him, and he immediately clutched his chest. This is how strong their mate bond is. They feel each other’s pain and it hurts them.
“Leia, please stop! Just tell me what it is! Who hurt you? Who made you do this to yourself? ” He questioned her, but yet again, not a word escaped Leia’s mouth. Rather, she raised her teary eyes to stare at his face.
She slowly reached out her hand and placed it on his cheek. “He… was the one.” She whispered, behind tears, and Adrik’s face changed in confusion. “Who? Little wife, I want to know who hurt you! ” He grabbed her hand that was caressing his cheek and rested it on his chest. “Please tell me….” He pleaded with a face that was altered in pain.
Leia’s wet lashes fluttered, and she unexpectedly fell into his arms, wrapping her arms around him and burying her face in his chest. “H-he was the one that killed my mother!! He was the one!! ” She sobbed uncontrollably, and her body couldn’t stop trembling.
“I feel full, h-holding my tears back. I wanted to let it all out! I wanted to hurt myself!! To remind myse- ”
“Shhh…” Adrik hushed her and tenderly caressed her hair. He drew her head back so he could look at her face, and lovingly placed a warm kiss on her lips.
“Little wife…” He dabbed off the tears on the edge of her eyes with his thumb and leaned down to deliver a soft kiss on her forehead.
Drops of warm liquid fell on Leia’s forehead, and her eyes couldn’t help but quiver in confusion. “A-adrik…” She parted her lips to say something, but Adrik pulled her into a loving hug. “I am sorry…”
He said, and Leia immediately pulled away from the embrace. She gazed up at his face, only to see tears falling from his eyes. Those green eyes of his.
“Why… are you crying?” She couldn’t help but ask in a tone that held sadness.
“I am sorry… I couldn’t keep you from getting hurt. I am sorry for—” He didn’t finish his words when Leia unexpectedly covered his lips with hers and kissed him passionately. “I love you so very much.” She whispered against his lips, and Adrik cupped her cheek.
His tears fell on her cheek, and she gently wiped the tears from his eyes.
She broke the kiss and wrapped her arms around him. “Forgive me.” She said, and her heart ached in grief. “I know you hurt when I do.” She raised her head to look at him, and Adrik tenderly caressed her short hair.
He gently scooped her into his arms and stood up from the floor, then stared down at her with a smile on his face.
He walked out of the bathroom and out of the room, then proceeded towards their room.
He pushed the door open and stepped in, slamming it shut behind them.
“Let me take care of you.” He whispered to her and slowly carried her to the bathroom.
He walked to the tub and sat her down on the white pavement near the tub. He then turned the tap on to fill up the bathtub and threw some bubbles into it.
A beautiful scent filled the air and he walked to her.
Adrik grabbed the hem of her tube and pulled it off, exposing her breasts.
He unbuttoned her shorts and pulled them off her waist, then went for her panty. Now she sat completely naked in front of him.
With his eyes fixed on hers, he lifted her from the pavement and gently laid her in the tub. Then he scooped up a good amount of water and sprinkled it on her body.
He tenderly scrubbed her body with the sponge, and Leia relaxed her head on the edge of the tub.
He gave her a nice bath, and when he was done, he carried her out and dried her body, then wrapped her up in a white towel.
He walked her out of the bathroom and had her sit down on the white soft stool in their bedroom.
Adrik walked back to the bathroom and grabbed the first aid box in the cabinet, then ambled back to her.
He strolled to stand behind her and squatted down to her level.
