After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 030: Coffee And Stranger
ALAINAIt seemed like it's been hours since I'd been waiting for my coffee order, partially praying that Lorraine would walk through the door soon and I'd have the chance to go crazy and rant all I wanted.This shouldn't be happening to me! Why? Whatever did I do wrong to be plagued like this? My feet tapped rhythmically against the marble floor and I gnawed on my finger nails, absolutely distracted. My thoughts seemed to be pouring out of my head without mercy.Just then, I heard the waiter call for number nineteen which was the same as mine and I stood up reluctantly. The coffee would wake me up, definitely but that wasn't enough reason for me to be delighted, not after how much of a mess that day had been.I walked to the counter and at the exact same time i wanted to grab the coffee, another pair of arma grabbed it first and I turned to the person, angry. “Excuse you?” I snapped. “That's my coffee.”When I turned to look at him, I was met by the most piercing set of green eyes and
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 031: Coffee?
ALEXANDERI couldn't get the Alaina of yesterday out of my mind, no matter how hard I tried. That she'd be that adorable? I never expected that and now like a madman, I stood by my door, waiting for her to return.I'd followed her halfways downstairs when she'd asked my caretaker who I was and the expression on her face when she realized I was the owner? It was impeccable and I had to stifle a laugh.Within the short time that I stood there, Alaina's scent breezed through the hallway and my stomach clenched. I felt a sensation build up inside me, almost worse than the last night. I didn't love this woman Innocently, at all. All the parts of me screamed of want for her.Alaina appeared at the far end and the moment we locked eyes, her expression contorted into fear, nervousness. Even anger. Frankly, I was used to that. So I simply smiled, for both of us.She seemed glued to that one position. She wouldn't move an inch for seconds. Until she inhaled deeply and approached me with such el

ALAINA“Coffee?”Instant recognition struck me. He was the dude from yesterday that I'd bathed in his own cup of coffee. Oh my! What was he doing here?Damon, was it? I stood there, maintaining a nice smile while bearing the weight of Alpha Alexander's gaze on me. I wasn't over all that embarrassment and I'd indeed hoped that he wouldn't be at work today, long enough to buy me back my pride.I had none. “Damon?” I called out, finally prying my lips open. I wasn't doing anything wrong. But how come two men before whom I'd embarrassed myself happened to know each other?What ill-fate! “Wow…” Damon eyed me. “It's so good to see you again. I was about to make a composite sketch and have it on the walls, all around packs to find you. Thankfully, that wouldn't be needed now, would it?”I let out a small laugh. I liked his sense of humor and his face, well. But then, if I smiled a bit too much, my boss might rip me apart, seeing as he hadn't stopped gawking at me. “That wouldn't be needed,
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 033: August Visitor
ALAINAThe entire demeanor of the room had changed and I wore my confidence like a cloak as I sat before the camera, staring into the light and awaiting engagement. It came through, in just seconds. The viewers started to skyrocket, pouring in like water from the crack of a dam. A simple smile sat on my face and I waved slightly. “Hello, lovelies! Isn't it amazing to be hanging with me again?”IloveQueenofDawn: She's back!! Omg I thought something happened to you! You didn't stream for two days!Goddessfever: The Queen is here!MichealOps: The love of my life is back!The comment swarmed in. I was awed and my cheeks burned red underneath the sparkly mask. The light poured into it, causing its sequins to reflect, bouncing and scattering against the walls. It was art.Everything was art. The beautiful sparkly dress I had on, with no arms and glued neatly to my chest. As always, a fair amount of cleavage was revealed.My neck was graced by a double-layered lace shocker, with strings sca

ALEXANDERCall me stupid.No, don't. That was a statement to justify my next set of actions and it might really be stupid. My conversation with Alaina earlier had left a bitter taste in the back of my throat because I'd never once thought she saw me as that much of a disturbance, well until she said so.And now, my keys circled my fingers as I walked through the corridors and stood by her door, contemplating what to do to make it better or worse. Her little interaction with Damon had set my soul on fire and it killed me inside.First, Logan?Now, Damon? Wouldn't they leave a beautiful woman be? I needed to change her perspective of me and there was no better way to do it. Everything she'd said was right.Alaina's mother, before she passed away, was my mother's maid, and it was generational, seeing as her family was the lowest of the hierarchy. Alaina was able to break free, thanks to civilization and the useless man she married. If she hadn't, I would have done something about it.A

ALAINA“My boss will kill me!” The only words I could utter in the past thirty minutes that I'd been stuck in traffic. After last night, I figured I'd give a chance for a new page with Alpha Alexander, whatever this relationship was turning out to be.But that wouldn't work if I was this tardy! I groaned inwardly as I looked out the window and tension pricked my skin. The worry might kill me and the vehicle had become a hot mess despite the functioning air conditioner.It was appalling and I'd carry the entire vehicle on my shoulders if I could. I continued to tap my feet rhythmically. The driver didn't seem nearly as bothered as I was and it just angered me more.Not because he wasn't feeling as tense as I was, his relaxation just seemed so off and it struck a nerve. He was enjoying the rock band playing on the radio. I, on the other hand, termed it as noise pollution.Everything was noise pollution. Why was the road so congested! What the hell was happening? “Is something going on
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 36: Such Absurdity!
ALAINAWas he kidding me right now? My hands trembled as I held the card. This wasn't the kind of image I wanted to put out there. I should be able to hold it together even when I was being tested like this.I looked up at him slowly as I dropped the envelope back to the table. His expression was serious and he stared at me intently.This was no prank. He meant it with every fiber of his being. He wanted me to go to the wedding. Logan's wedding. My ex-husband's wedding? How much more ridiculous could this get? “I don't understand…” I stated, holding his gaze. Alpha Alexander didn't look away.I didn't know what angered me more. Just yesterday he'd apologized for being a goddamn son of a bitch, just to reenact a new streak today? And it was even worse that I believed his half-assed apology and accepted it. Anger burned inside and I stood still, “You want me to attend this wedding with you? For what reason?” I tried to find a cool in my voice as I asked, not wanting to seem too harsh
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 37: Bad Decisions And A Present.
ALAINABad decisions 101. I shifted in my chair, knowing that I got Damon's full attention. I shouldn't be doing this, but I could deny that I was infected by Alexander's tactics.He had poisoned my mind and all the parts of me that I thought had made peace with all Logan did to me seemed to fight for attention. I was still hurt by it, though I was over him.Now here I was, childishly asking an acquaintance for the right step to take. Damon's eyes were fixed on mine and I didn't know the right way to table the question. “So, do you believe in revenge and stuff?” I asked coyly, fiddling my hair. “Do you believe in…you know those petty things that people do to get revenge when they're hurt, like ruining a birthday party on purpose?”Damon's lips spread into a smile and he nodded slowly, probably trying to understand my ramblings. I felt like a child all over again and couldn't help but laugh too. “I love those in movies, but we're talking about reality here, right?”I pursed my lips an
