Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 97
“She told me about your encounter with her in the restaurant. She was surprised to find out I was the one, you were taking a date.” Leia chuckled softly and took a low breath.
Adrik slowly nodded his head and fluttered his eyes in realization. “No wonder you both have almost the same attitude and character.”
“What do you mean?” Leia’s face puckered a bit, and she turned her head to stare at him.
“You are both very sarcastic.” Adrik shrugged and glanced at her, only to see her face alter in disagreement.
“I am not sarcastic.”
“Yes, you are.”
“Well… I don’t care. ” She rolled her eyes at him and laid back on the bed. Her mouth twisted and she scoffed.
Adrik chuckled at her and caressed her cheek. “That’s another thing I like about you, little wife; you’re sarcastic when it’s needed, not unnecessarily sarcastic.” He kissed her on the forehead and laid back on the bed.
Leia’s face, which was a bit frowned, changed, and a smile formed on her lips. She turned around and raised her head, supporting it with her other hand. “Tell me something. Am I really the first woman you have ever taken on a date? ” She stared at him with anticipation in her large eyes.
Adrik abruptly cleared his throat at hearing her question and darted his eyes around.
Leia’s brow crinkled a bit at his behavior, and she grabbed his chin, then turned his head to make him look at her. “Why are you avoiding the question? Just tell me okay.” She smiled at him and brushed his hair back with her palm.
Adrik clicked his tongue and chuckled softly. “Well… you’re indeed the first woman I’ve ever taken on a date.” He said, and before he could anticipate what would happen next, Leia unexpectedly sat up and sat on his belly, staring at him with glowing eyes. “Really?”
“Um… yes.” Adrik gazed intently at her as he couldn’t understand why her eyes were gleaming as though they were one of a little girl that candy was given to.
“You…” She flicked her finger on his forehead and laid her head on his chest. “I feel special to know that I am the first woman you took on a date.” She smiled and drew circles on his chest with her finger.
“Mhmm, I see… well, that’s a surprise.” Adrik chuckled and stroked her back.
“Adrik…” She whispered his name.
“Mhmm,” Adrik answered her, and she raised her head to stare at his face. “Can I… use the SUV on Tuesday?” She asked, and Adrik halted, stroking her on the back.
“Are you going somewhere, little wife?” He curiously asked as he sat on the bed, leaving her to sit on his lap.
“Mhmm.” Leia nodded and gazed at him with pleading eyes.
“Um… sure, but you know you didn’t need to ask me if you wanted to use it. Whatever mine is yours. ” He said, and Leia immediately jumped on him and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly. “Thank you, thank you.” She tightened the hug, and Adrik chuckled, then drew her back.
He gazed at her face and reached out his hand to scratch her hair. “You look adorable at this moment.” He said, and Leia’s cheek turned red.
Adrik reached his hand down to her lips and stroked her lower lips with his thumb. Leia’s heart instantly raced within her, and she gazed into his eyes.
Adrik cupped her cheek and leaned in to brush his lips against her. Leia’s body shuddered as she watched his plump red lips, ready to claim hers.
Her eyes slowly shut as his lips covered her, claiming as the owner. He kissed her passionately, and Leia parted her lips as she felt him ask for entrance.
Their tongues danced together, and his hand traveled down to her body, slipping under her top and grabbing her exposed breast.
Leia moaned against his lips as he rolled her nipples, which became erect between his fingers. He pinched on it and pressed hard on her breast.
Leia tangled her fingers in his hair, and he slowly took the top of her pyjamas off, exposing her upper body.
His eyes roamed over her body, and he greedily claimed her breast, pressing the other with his right hand.
Leia threw her head back as pleasure overwhelmed her and her grip on his hair tightened, unbinding his banded hair.
“Adrik…” She moaned his name, and Adrik slowly laid her down on the bed, leaving himself on top of her.
He leaned down and kissed every part of her body and took her back to the world of pleasure.

The next day arrived, and heavy rain poured uncontrollably, leaving everyone in a boring mood.
In the backyard of a white-colored mansion, people dressed in black clothing with umbrellas over their heads surrounded a young girl whose eyes were swollen from too much crying.
She was also clad in black with an umbrella over her head. Her teary eyes watched the priest who prayed over a woman’s corpse lying inside a well-decorated coffin. The woman was draped in white long clothing and flowers were laid on top of her.
This woman was the one and only Lady Cathryn, who was known as one of the top five richest people in the world. Today she is finally being buried.
Amanda’s heart squeezed within her as she couldn’t help but remember the day she woke up only to see the corpse of her mother lying in their living room. What broke her heart the most was that she was wrapped up in a bag like a worthless, homeless human being.
Who was her mother? The only woman who managed to fight against men and bit through life to make it to become one of the richest people in the world.
Her hand balled into a fist and her eyes narrowed dangerously.
She didn’t need to do any investigation as she already knew who was behind the death of her mother.
She could remember that fateful day after the incident that happened at the party. She had been crying and refusing to come out of her room as she was too embarrassed. Yes, the video was restricted from being uploaded to the internet by anyone, but does that mean that some maniacally stupid reporters wouldn’t go against the order?
They had uploaded the images, and some lucky ones got a glimpse before the post was deleted and the reporters were handled by the police. Those who got a peek of it had it uploaded again, and what they wrote as the headline broke her more.
Her mother, who knew it was useless to chase everyone around, trying to stop them from uploading the video and images, gave up and came to her room to talk to her.
…
“Amanda, you can’t continue to lock yourself in the room every day. It’s just a video and gossip that people will forget in a few days.” Lady Cathryn kissed her daughter on the forehead and caressed her cheek.
“But mum, she embarrassed me! She slapped me in front of everyone and no one reacted, not even you. ” Amanda slapped her mother’s hand away and stood up from the bed to gaze out the window.
Lady Cathryn took a deep breath and also stood up from the bed to stand beside her. “Ama… I am your mother, and I promise you that I will never let whoever hurts you live to see the daylight. ” She caressed Amanda’s hair, and Amanda turned to look at her. “What do you mean?”
“I mean, I’d do anything you want me to do to her as long as it makes you happy and brings you back to normal.” Lady Cathryn smiled and stared intently at her daughter, awaiting her response.
Amanda bit her lower lip and the scenes of what happened that day at the party flashed in her mind. Her face puckered and a malicious glint flickered in her eyes. “I want her dead.” She grinned viciously and turned her head to stare at her mother. “Only then will I be happy and back to normal.”
Lady Catherine’s eyes fluttered, and she took a deep breath. “Anything for you?” She brushed her arms and placed a soft kiss on her forehead. “Now relax. Mother will get the job done.” She smiled and brushed Amanda’s hair.
Amanda nodded and embraced her tightly. “I love you, Mum. You’re the best mother in the whole world. ”
Lady Cathryn nodded at her and hugged her back. “I love you too.”
..
After that day, her mother had begun to plan out how to kill Leia and finally got the chance.
She had felt really unwell that day and asked her mother to stay back, but her mother insisted that that was the only chance they had to get revenge. And as someone who really wanted to see the bitch dead, let her mother go.
However, what she didn’t expect was that she would wake up the next few days only to see her mother’s corpse lying on the floor in their living room.
