Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 95

“That’s exactly what I said.” Kiesha chuckled and cleared her throat. “But then I realized that he was dead serious. I swear I was stunned for a whole two minutes, just staring at him.”

“Well, guessing he had never taken a woman on a date before, I told him it was very romantic and that any woman would love it. He asked me my name, and after I told him, we said goodbye to each other and he left. ”

“I didn’t know that it was our best friend that he was taking on a date.” Keisha chuckled and turned her head to stare at Leia. “Was the date nice?”

“Nice?” Victor’s jaw fell at Kiesha’s question, and he shook his head in disbelief. “Do you even watch TV or use the internet?”

“Well, not recently.” Kiesha shook her head as she shrugged.

“I see.” Victor nodded and pulled his phone out of his pocket. He unlocked it and browsed through the internet, then handed the phone to Kiesha. “Look.”

Kiesha received the phone and started staring at the screen to watch the video that Victor searched out.

“This was how the date went.” Victor wiggled his brow funnily and patted Kiesha on the back when he saw her jaw falling with her eyes dilated like a saucer.

“Oh my God.” Kiesha shook her head and smiled happily. She raised her head to look at Leia and abruptly stood up from the sofa to tightly hug her.

Leia, who was stunned by the sudden hug, fluttered her eyes as her body stood motionless. “I am so glad you are no longer living with those horrible people who call themselves family.” Kiesha chuckled and stroked her on the back.

Feeling warm in her heart, Leia embraced her back and took a low breath.

“Awww.” James and Victor both said at the same time, and they exchanged glances. James patted Victor on the shoulder and gazed at Leia and Kiesha. “Men, I am glad we are all back together.”

“Yep.” Victor nodded in agreement and took a low breath.

Keisha drew back from the hug, and a deep sigh left her lips. “I can’t wait for my dream man to come to me too.” She cupped her hands together and walked back to the sofa to sit down.

James, who stood beside Victor, creased his brow at her words and abruptly cleared his throat.

“Now that I remember, what about Shawn? What’s going to happen when he comes back?” Kiesha turned her head to gaze at Leia as she asked.

Leia’s eyes fluttered, and she shrugged. “If he already has someone else in his life, that will be awesome, but if he doesn’t, he will have to move on when he comes back. I love my man and will never leave him for anyone, no matter who it is.”

Everyone took a low breath and slightly nodded their heads. “We will always be here for you, alright,” James said with a smile on his lips, and Leia smiled back at him, then glanced at each of them. “I have to go now. Meet you guys on Tuesday.” She said and waved goodbye at them before walking out of the apartment.

She boarded her car, drove out of the compound, then sped off down the road.

She arrived home in one hour and hurriedly went up to their room. When she got inside, she realized that Adrik was yet to come home, as there were still hours left before six.

Leia took deep breaths and plopped into the bed, gazing up at the ceiling with a distant look on her face.

Seated on the sofa in his estate, a deep frown emerged on Adrik’s face, and he threw away the phone tablet in his hand, smashing it against the wall.

Alex, who stood beside him, was startled and swallowed hard.

“Get the car ready. Let us pay him a nice visit. It’s been a while.” A smirk formed on Adrik’s face behind the mask, and he stood up from the sofa.

He shoved his hands into the pockets of his long black jacket and proceeded to walk towards the entrance.

He walked out of the mansion and towards the Rolls Royce parked in the compound’s parking lot.

Alex opened the back door for him, and he stepped in with an expressionless face.

Taking his seat in the driver’s seat, Alex started the car’s engine and rode out of the compound and onto the road. He raised the speed of the car, per Adrik’s order, and sped off.

They rode for three hours before arriving in front of a tall mansion that was painted a gray color. On each side of the black gate were beautiful flowers neatly cut into a nice and unique shape.

A butler walked out of the mansion as though expecting them, and ordered some men dressed in black suits to open the gate.

Alex carefully drove into the compound and parked the car in the parking lot. He stepped down and walked over to open the door for Adrik.

Adrik smiled dangerously behind his mask and elegantly stepped down from the car.

He shoved his hands into his pocket and raised his eyes to glance at the butler and the mansion. He motioned for Alex to follow behind him, and they began to stroll into the building.

The tall red door at the staircase opened and they stepped into the mansion.

The first thing that came into view was an elegant living room that resembled that of a palace. Its color was white, while the pillars were gold-colored. The sofas were also white, and the curtains hanging from the tall glass window were golden in color.

Above the ceiling was a tall diamond chandelier emitting a radiant yellow light, bestowing more beauty on the already beautiful compartment.

Adrik brushed back his hair that fell over his face with his fingers and walked to the sofa to sit down.

Alex took a seat beside him on the couch, and Adrik relaxed, waiting for whoever he was waiting for.

It didn’t take four minutes when a young man with completely white hair that stopped at shoulder length began to walk down the stairs with another man that Alex knew too well following behind. ‘Nirmolak!’ Alex’s hands clenched tightly as he said that name in his heart.

The white-haired young man walked over and took a seat on the sofa opposite Adrik, who sat with no expression on his face. His plump red lips curled up into a grin, and his sword-shaped eyes narrowed a bit. His gray pupils gazed at Adrik, and Adrik smirked behind the mask on his face.

“Dear brother, it’s been so long. Hmmm, I wonder why you visited me today. Do you perhaps miss me?” He chuckled softly, and Adrik lazily stared at him.

“Still haven’t broken the curse.” He laughed and tsked while shaking his head. “Pitiful.”

Adrik smiled behind his mask and chuckled softly. “Ileus, you do know why I’m here, no?”

Ileus’ face, which was bright with a smile, instantly darkened, and he maliciously gazed at Adrik. “Of course, I do. What can you do about it?”

Adrik chuckled yet again at his question and took a deep breath. “Nothing, absolutely nothing. However, do keep in mind that only the brave play with fire.”

“Hahaha!!!” Ileus chuckled crazily and shook his head at Adrik. He abruptly stood up from the sofa and walked to Adrik. He bent down so his face was close to Adriks’s and stared deeply into his green eyes. “Brother, remember what I told you a hundred years ago. One day, what you took from me, I will take back, and I will make you bow before me. ”

He moved his hand to take the mask off Adrik’s face, but Adrik immediately caught his wrist and gazed at him with a threat apparent in his green eyes. “And yet, you have fulfilled none.” He chuckled and pushed Ileus aside, then stood up from the couch and turned to stare at him.

“You don’t know what you’re engaging in. I do hope you’re ready to finish what you’re starting.” He said it leisurely and tucked a strand of his hair behind his ear.

Ileus’ breathing became heavy, and he abruptly grabbed Adrik by the arm and stared deep into his eyes.

Adrik’s leisurely eyes gazed at him, and he snatched his arm from his grip. “Take care of yourself, brother. You need it.” He said and, with a turn, he proceeded to leave, but a sentence from Ileus made him stop on his track.

“Your mate is truly quite a beautiful, tough girl.”

Adrik turned around only to see him smirking with his arms folded. His eyes narrowed and he balled his fist that was within the pocket of his jacket. “Indeed, she is.” He grinned behind the mask on his face and chuckled softly.

“Let’s go.” He motioned for Alex to follow behind him, and they exited the building, leaving Ileus and Nirmolak staring at the entrance with an expressionless face.

Ileus smirked and said to Nirmolak, who stood beside him, “Start the job tomorrow.” He took a deep breath, and his eyes narrowed into a thin line. ‘Brother, I will let you know how it feels to have what truly belongs to you taken away. ‘ He thought within his heart and turned around and began to walk back up the stairs.
