Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 71

The day went by faster, and just like Adrik promised, he returned around 6 pm.

A deep breath escaped his nose as he stared at the entrance of his mansion. He shoved his hands into his pocket and, with a wide smile on his lips, he walked through the door and entered the building.

He took the elevator and went straight to their room, then opened the door and shut it behind him. “Little wife.” He called when he saw no one inside the bedroom.

“I’m inside here.” Leia’s voice sounded from the bathroom. “Where did you go? been waiting for you.” She opened the door and stuck her head out to peep at him with a little frown on her face.

“I had some business to deal with,” Adrik replied with a smile and strode to the sofa to take a seat.

“I see…” Leia nodded at him in understanding and retracted her head. “I will be done in a while.” She smiled and closed the door.

Adrik took a deep breath and stood up from the sofa to take his jacket off, then strolled to the second bathroom in the compartment to take his shower.

They both spent a few minutes before Leia walked out with a white towel wrapped around her body.

She glanced at Adrik, who also had a towel wrapped around his waist, leaving his upper body bare, and her cheek suddenly turned a light shade of pink.

She hurriedly covered her face with her palms and rushed into the closet. Adrik’s eyes darted around in confusion at his little wife’s behavior, and he slightly shook his head.

He unrolled his hair, which was tied up messily, and it fell down his shoulder, past his waist, and almost touched his back knee. A low sigh left his lips as he stared at the length of his hair, and he shrugged, then walked to dry his hair.

It took them a while before they were done, and Adrik stood gazing at himself in the mirror. Instead of wearing his complete suit today, he went for a different style.

He wore a white shirt and suit pants, then a long black elegant jacket that had a golden pin on its side. He left the jacket open, showing off the white shirt he wore inside, and his feet were covered in pristine black shoes that looked very expensive.

His black raven hair, which was carefully done by him, was tied up in a ponytail, leaving a few strands to fall over his face as usual. Well, his face needed no touching as it was already as perfect as it could be for him.

He smiled to himself and turned around to stare at the closet in which Leia had been in for a while now. His brows creased a bit at how long she had been in there, and he couldn’t help but ask, “Little wife, is everything alright with you in there?”

“Um… Yes, I will be out in a while.” Leia replied from within the closet, and he nodded his head, then strolled to the couch to take a seat and wait for her to be done.

He let out a low breath as he sat down and gazed at the wall. Today is going to be a different day in his life, and deep down, he is wishing for everything to go according to his plan. He smiled to himself and slightly nodded, expressing he believed everything would be fine.

A maximum of four minutes passed, and the door of the closet creaked open. Adrik, who was seated on the sofa, turned his head and the instant his eyes fell on Leia, who had just walked out of the dresser, he immediately sat up from the couch without letting his eyes leave her.

Standing with her head hung low, the sexy red dress that draped her slender body sparkled under the luminous light of the chandelier in their room. The dress hugged her body perfectly, showing off her curves and matching the red lipstick on her lips.

Her short hair was neatly combed and seemed like it had grown a bit longer; it was about to reach neck length. Her neck and ears were beautified with the gold necklace and earrings, complimenting her collar bone, which was exposed as a result of the dress being sleeveless.

Adrik’s lips unknowingly curled into a wide smile, and he walked to her. Leia raised her head to look at him, and he cupped her cheek. “Do I look okay?” She asked with a nervous smile on her brim.

“You don’t look okay-” Adrik stared deep into her eyes, “-But you look beautiful. So beautiful!! ” He brought her forehead to his lips and planted a soft, tender kiss on it. “You are so lovely.”

Leia’s cheeks turned a few shades of pink, and she abruptly pulled him into a tight hug. “Thank you!” She raised her eyes to gaze at him and smiled happily.

Adrik caressed her hair and pulled away from the embrace. He grabbed his mask from the mini table and turned to Leia with a smirk on his lips.

“Shall we? My beautiful little wife.” He gestured out his arm like a gentleman and funnily wiggled his brow at her with his lip arched in a smile.

Leia giggled with a shake of her head and turned to him. “We shall, my handsome.” She interlocked her arm with his, and they both chuckled softly.

They took the elevator, which took them to the last floor, and elegantly, they ambled outside through the entrance and strolled towards the white Lamborghini packed just near the gate, with his men standing on each side of the car and Alex standing near the driver’s side.

The men, including Alex, bowed to the two of them and opened the back seat for them.

Adrik helped Leia in and took his seat behind her. Alex motioned for the bodyguards to use the Rolls Royce to follow them, and they nodded their heads at him before leaving.

He took his seat in the driver’s seat and started the car’s engine.. With a careful reverse of the car, he drove out of the compound and sped off down the road.
