The Alpha And His Beautiful Monster - Chapter 124
Oliver’s POV
I was talking with Noel and the rest of the elders when I noticed Victoria was no longer inside the restaurant, and I excused myself from them because I suddenly felt nervous, but Zane blocked my way, and when I looked at him, he was smiling at me from ear to ear.
“Couldn’t wait to see your fiancee?” My best friend asked, and I nodded my head.
“Hell, yeah, I don’t care if you will call me crazy or head over heels in love with her, I just wanted to be honest, and I love the way I feel towards her,” I responded, and he chuckled.
“She is with Trixie, and I think they are having a girl’s talk after Amanda talked with your fiancee.” He said, and my eyes widened, and I could feel the loud pounding of my heart against my chest, and I felt so worried if what Amanda had done.
“Relax, buddy, and I am sure my wife would convince her never to listen to Amanda.” He said, and I released a deep sigh, and when I looked around, I found Amanda staring in our direction with a mischievous grin on her face.
“I think I should go and speak with her.” I declared.
“I could say your pretty face could cause you much trouble, Oliver.” He said, and I shook my head.
“I thought, Amanda, will understand that I finally meet my mate, and I hope she will stop bothering me,” I responded.
“I think her mind is so focused on having you in her life that is why until now she remained unmated.” Zane declared.
“I don’t think so; based on my experience, the moment she will meet her mate, I am sure Amanda will realize what a fool she had been for spending her life thinking about us to be together in the end,” I said, and Zane smiled broadly at me.
“Wow, it sounds so different coming from your mouth, I had been reciting the same mantra when I tried to convince you that having a mate was real, and I felt glad I don’t need to tell you about it again.” He replied.
I excused myself from Zane and walked towards Amanda’s table. I asked her right away to come with me, and she quickly got up with a seductive smile on her face. I brought her on the balcony away from everyone, and I almost jumped on my feet when I turned around to face her and realized she was already standing so close to me that I took a back step.
“What have you done, Amanda?” I asked as I tried my best to control my voice, and I could tell she talked with Victoria harshly because I have always known she would always cause trouble.
“Why do you look so worried, Oliver, I haven’t done anything wrong, and as far as I am concerned, you are only mine. My father said, you can have me as your mate; you don’t need to follow what the elders had said.” She declared as she tried to get closer to me, and I raised my hand to stop her.
“You said you don’t believe in mating, and why did you bring that brat here in Gallant?” She asked in an angry tone.
“Look, Amanda, nothing is going on between us, and I don’t want to hurt your feelings. We grew up together and went to the same grade school and high school, and we were friends, but it is about time you need to stop with what you are doing.” I responded.
“Who are you to tell me something like that? All my life, I have been saving myself for you, and you are aware that we have chemistry. And felt so hurt when you rejected me years ago after something happened to us.” She yelled at me.
“It was a mistake, and it was all your fault, you tricked me, and I know it was your plan all along, and you can’t blame me if it happened. I don’t want to remember that night, Amanda; besides, you badly wanted it, and I want to tell you I am now happy with my life.” I muttered, and I could see how her face fell and her tears welled up in her eyes.
“Oliver, how could you say that? You will never be happy with her, and you can’t marry Victoria, or else I will tell everyone about her secrets, my father knew something, and I know they will kill her if the werewolves know the secrets of their family.” She said, and I could feel my anger is boiling in my veins, and I realized Tyron must have done something, or she was only bluffing. But I have always known her father constantly disagreed with my plans, but I never expected he would listen to his daughter’s pleas.
“Then, I will die first before they can touch Victoria, and I don’t know what kind of secrets you were talking about, Amanda. And no matter how you will threaten me, I will never stop loving her. And I am sorry to tell you this, but I love Victoria more than you will ever know.” I said, and I could see the pain that registered on her face and the hatred in her eyes.
“You will regret this, Oliver.” She said, and I could tell she would never listen to me.
“Remember this, and I will do everything to ruin what you have. I waited for so many years for you, and I will not accept if I will only gain tears, and all I ever wanted is you.” She added.
“Hey, Amanda, you are beautiful, and you have to believe me; the moment you find your mate, you will realize I was right. I am not the one for you, and you should acknowledge that by now.” I responded, and she shook her head as she came closer to me.
“Stop, and don’t you dare come closer to my future husband, Amanda!” I heard Victoria’s voice, and Amanda ceased walking towards me, and before she could say anything, my beautiful and sweet fiancee ran and threw herself towards me, and all my worries were gone the moment she stood up on her toes and curled her arms around my neck.
Victoria claimed my mouth hungrily, and I put my arms around her tiny waist as I kissed her back and pulled her closer to me, and I heard Amanda curse before she retreated, and I heard her footsteps fading away as I continued to devour Victoria’s mouth.
And I could feel Victoria’s love for me through her kisses, and when she released my mouth, I could see the blush on her face, but I only allowed her to look at me for a while before I captured her mouth again.
“Wow! That was unexpected from you,” I said, grinning when I finally let go of her swollen lips.
“That was my way of telling her to back off because you are only mine.” She responded, and I beamed at her, and when I looked around, I felt glad I could no longer see Amanda.
“I am sorry..” Victoria didn’t let me finish when she put her soft finger on my mouth.
“You don’t need to explain to me, Oliver. I know how much you love me, and that is what matters most. I don’t care about your past, and I am not afraid to face Amanda. I love you, and I will only listen to you.” She declared.
“If you want to leave, we will go home now, Victoria,” I said, and she gave me her sweetest smile.
“You will be leaving with me to Zenith, and I don’t want to ruin your night, and I wanted you to enjoy with your friends Oliver. You don’t need to worry about me because I will be with Trixie.” She responded while I was still hugging her.
“Besides, I don’t want to go home without meeting the rest of your pack members, even there is one man looking daggers at me, and I wanted to meet him.” She said, and I knew right away she was referring to Tyron, Amanda’s dad.
“It must be the father of Amanda, and he is one of the elders.” I blurted out.
“Oh, I see, no wonder he was also looking daggers at me. I couldn’t blame him, though. I could tell he was feeling the pain of her daughter. And I felt sorry for his daughter too, but I can’t give you up because I will be so lost without you.” She stated as I took her hand.
“Well, he has always been different, but I don’t think he wanted to give her daughter false hope, and he knew about mating, and he understood what it means to find a mate,” I replied. I felt a little anxious about Amanda’s threat when she told me Tyron knew something about my fiancee’s secrets. I couldn’t tell Victoria about it, and I am confident Amanda will not tell them because she knew I would protect Victoria whatever it takes.
As we joined my pack members, I realized Amanda left together with her father, and I felt so relieved, and I held Victoria’s hand until I brought her to Trixie.
“Trixie, I couldn’t thank you enough for bringing my fiancee back,” I said, and she grinned at me.
“I like Victoria, Oliver, and it feels like I finally found someone I could trust, and I don’t want her to be crying over with something unimportant; besides, you are Zane’s best friend, and I know my husband will never be at peace if you are unhappy.” She responded.
I kissed Victoria before I left them and made my way to the table of the elders. At the same time, I couldn’t stop myself from looking at her because I was afraid someone would try to drive her away again, but I felt at ease knowing she had her friend, and I knew Victoria would miss Trixie by the time we left Gallant.
And I wanted to make sure to come home often because I have company to run, even if I can manage it online.. Still, I will do everything to visit my pack members because I don’t want them to think I abandon them because of one girl. Still, they all know I needed to do everything to be with the woman I love, even if it means sacrificing my position in the company and my responsibility as the Alpha of our pack; it was all for the future; after all, Victoria would be our savio
