Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 217
Leia stared at the screen of the phone, and her eyes blinked twice. ‘He dared to hang up on me!’ She smirked viciously as she thought and slowly nodded her head. “Till he comes back.” She scoffed and proceeded to grab her hoodie from the dressing room. She slid into it and pulled the cap over her head, then began to make her way downstairs.
The elevator brought her down to the last floor, and she stepped out, then strolled towards the white door that led to the backyard.
She pushed it open and stepped outside, then shut it behind her. She lifted her head to glance at the dark sky, and a low breath exited her nose. From her prediction, it looked as though it was going to rain sooner or later.
She slightly shook her head and made her way towards the swing to take a seat, then slowly began to swing herself back and forth. A slight smile emerged on her face and a low breath escaped from her nose as she recalled her mother.
‘I miss you so much.’ She let out a cry in her heart and shut her eyes as a pessimistic expression made its way to her face. She grabbed her phone and turned on the music as she plugged her AirPods into her ears.
….
From a bit of a distance, a young boy who looked the same age as Leia stared at her. An unknown glint twinkled in his gray eyes, and he tilted his head to one side, trying to glimpse her more.
“Your highness, please, we need to go. His Majesty will kill me if he finds out you came here to find her.” A middle-aged man with completely white hair stared at the young boy with anxiousness in his eyes.
The young boy, who was no other than Azazel, ignored the old man and continued to gaze at Leia. “He can’t do anything, Gavin.” He shook his head at the old man and moved closer.
“Your highness!” The middle-aged man by the name of Gavin fluttered his eyes in panic and also moved in an attempt to stop him. However, Azazel unexpectedly disappeared and appeared behind Leia on the swing.
A slow smile emerged on his face as he stared at her. Slowly, he reached out his hand to touch her. However, as though a barrier was keeping him from her, unknown energy electrocuted his hand, causing him to hiss and retract his hand. He gazed at his fingers and Leia and proceeded to try and touch her again. However, this time, not only did it electrify him, but someone appeared from nowhere and grabbed him by the wrist, disappearing instantly from sight.
As though she felt a presence behind her, Leia turned her head and glanced around, but on seeing nothing, she shrugged and returned her attention to the dark sky with a half-moon on it.

“Take your filthy hands off me!” Azazel glared and narrowed his eyes at the man who looked to be around the age of 30 to 35. His short black hair was neatly combed, matching his brown eyes, and surprisingly, he was clad in black sweatpants and a black capless hoodie.
“Forgive me for disrespecting your highness, but you are not allowed to go near her. I am sorry, but I cannot let you go against his majesty.” The man bowed a bit in respect, and Azazel’s face altered in deep irritation. “Fuck the both of you!” He scowled angrily and disappeared, leaving Gavin with the man.
The man who was known by the name of Asmodeus turned to the middle-aged man and deadly glared at him with narrowed eyes. “Next time you allow him to cross his boundaries, I will send you to the afterlife.”
“Please forgive me, My Lord! Have mercy!” Gavin instantly fell on his knees and began to hit his forehead on the ground as he pleaded for leniency.
Asmodeus’ eyes narrowed cruelly, and without bothering to utter a word, he disappeared out of sight, allowing Gavin to take a deep breath of relief. He hurriedly stood up from the ground and disappeared to find Azazel.

It was 8:30 pm and the Rolls Royce pulled over into the mansion and parked in the parking lot.
The bodyguard, who was seated in the front seat, got out and hurried to open the door of the car.
Adrik stepped down and adjusted his white long jacket, then glanced at the entrance of the building. He took a deep breath and pinched between his brows. How the fuck is he going to face his little wife now? The fact that he hung up on her before she could finish her sentence was enough to let him know what he would be facing when he returned home. But no worries, he knows how he can get on her good side.
He smirked, and with his hands stuffed into his pockets, he began to walk towards the huge door.
The bodyguards pushed it open and he stepped in. He vigilantly glanced around for any flying knives or punches, and on seeing none, he straightened up and proceeded to go upstairs to their room.
He slowly pushed the door open and stepped in, and the first thing his eyes fell on was Leia seated at the edge of the bed, with her legs crossed and arms folded. “Welcome back, sweetheart.” She said it is a very calm dangerous tone, and Adrik drew his head back in vigilance. Since when did his little wife begin to call him “sweetheart”? His eyes fluttered in a bit of suspicion, and he awkwardly cleared his throat and smiled at her. “Little wife, I can exp-”
Before he could finish his words, Leia appeared before him and sent a punch to his stomach. “This is for not telling me you were going to be having a meeting today!”
She sent another fierce punch to his stomach. “This is for getting me worried and causing me to call you in the middle of your meeting!” She then drew back a bit and violently and ferociously, she sent a wild kick to his stomach, which earned a deep growl from Adrik. “And this is for hanging up on me!!” She scoffed angrily and turned around to walk towards the bed, but Adrik’s arms wrapped around her body, hugging her tightly. “I am sorry, little wife. I won’t ever do that again, I promise.” He took his mask off and kissed her on the cheek, and a grin emerged on Leia’s lips.
She pulled away from the hug and turned around to gaze at him with folded arms. “You don’t have to tell me. I know you won’t try such a thing again.” She shrugged at him and smirked viciously. “Unless you want more than this,” She used her hands to make a punching gesture, and Adrik swallowed immediately.
“I promise never to try such a thing again.” Adrik smiled widely at her as he shook his head, and Leia nodded in satisfaction.
“But hold on a moment, what was with that last kick? It was too violent and felt quite painful. Little wife, are you forgetting that I am your lovely husband?” He inquired with his brow raised a bit, and Leia glared at him before moving to lie down on the bed. “Next time will be worse..” She smirked and shut her eyes.
