Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 63
ELODIE Jessica’s voice drew the attention of everyone at the party, and they all turned to us. I felt their judging eyes on me, the weight of their gazes heavy with accusation. “I’m sorry that I bumped into you, but you didn’t have to spill red wine all over my white dress,” Jessica said, sobbing and rubbing her eyes. “My dress is ruined, and it was my late mother’s.” What the hell? She had changed her demeanor in seconds, playing the victim flawlessly. “How could you say I poured wine all over you?” I demanded, my fury rising. It was a cheap trick, and I’d seen it too many times before to fall for it. “Why are you holding a glass then?” she questioned, a smirk slowly spreading across her lips. Everyone began to murmur, their whispers growing louder. “Who the hell is she to do that to Jessica?” “How could someone be that cruel at a party like this?” “She’s heartless, doing that to another woman in a white dress.” “And it belonged to her late mother?” “And this is
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 64
TEDROS“Go check if she’s alright if you care about her so much!” she snarled, brushing past me and hurrying towards the house.I stared after her, confused as to why she was acting that way when I did nothing to her. My eyes trailed to her bleeding hand as she moved.Her words rang in my head as I watched her grip her gown until she was out of sight. How was I going to tell her that I didn’t care about Jessica as much as I did about her and that Jessica wasn’t my mistress?Turning my gaze back to the path Belle and Jessica took, they were gone too, and I felt all eyes on me. Ducky had quite shifted her anger from Jessica to me. I should have helped her when it happened, but I wasn’t close.Mom had asked me to help her carry something, and when I returned, Ducky was about to strike Jessica. I wanted to stop her and deal with it myself, but I had no idea Jessica was biting her.And of all things, why did Jessica resort to biting?I felt bad, and I knew what Ducky was probably thinking.
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 65
ELODIEGetting into the room, I slammed the door behind me and locked it securely in case Tedros came after me. Leaning my back against the door, I blushed harder than I ever thought I could.Tedros’ words kept ringing in my head. “I am not in love with Jessica!”“Just know that I am not in love with Jessica, nor is she my mistress.”“I care about you, not her!”He cared about me, not her. I slid to the floor, covering my face with my hands. Excitement filled me, making me feel like a thirteen-year-old who had just had a first crush.“Stupid, I had been stupid to think he loved her. It’s been years, and I have seen him date other ladies, get his heart broken, and break girls' hearts.”He didn’t even date Jessica, and I was getting jealous over nothing. Jessica wanted to make me angry, and I was not going to let her succeed.Rising to my feet, I unlocked the door and peered into the passageway. The party was still on, and I was supposed to be introduced, wasn’t I?Why would I ignore th
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 66
ELODIE“You could have refused their offer to introduce you to the pack members until later,” Tedros said, holding my hand and leading me into the building.The party was done, and everyone had retired for the night. After getting introduced to everyone, I had a glass of alcohol, then another, then another until I was halfway drunk. I couldn’t walk properly unless someone supported me. I glanced at Tedros, who had a concerned look on his face.“Easy for you to say. Did you see the delight in their eyes when I agreed?” I questioned. “It was worth spending time with the other ladies from several packs, and I met the younger Luna among them too. I think she is the Luna of a new Alpha.”“You could have turned them down still,” Tedros said, ignoring what I had just said. “Now you are drunk and can’t walk. I don’t have a memory of you being drunk.”Pouting, I shook my head. “I could never get drunk in front of so many people. Although I drank, it was with Mom, Cole, and Belle. They are my f
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 67
ELODIE“What did I do after that?” I asked, but Tedros rolled his eyes and rolled off the bed.He managed to stand straight in the pile of toys and kicked some out of the way to make space for standing.“Do you need help getting up?” he inquired, stretching out his hand for me to take.I took his hand and slowly rose to my feet. I peered at him, and from up close, the makeup on his face was visible and it made him look like a beautiful man. It was hilarious.I chuckled softly and began giggling. He had so much courage carrying that makeup on his face, and the eyeliner looked like it was drawn by a black marker.“What’s so funny?” he asked. “You did all of this to my face, can’t you remember?”I immediately stopped giggling and stared at him. “I did? When?” I didn’t have that memory in my head.He ran his hand through his hair, groaning in frustration. “Let’s clean up. This room looks like a dumpster.”Frowning, I wondered why he had just ignored my question. “I just asked you a questi
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 68
ELODIEI peeked through the door, my eyes scanning the place for Tedros. I wondered if he was still there. I had spent a long time in the bathroom, hoping that he would leave. Although I had taken both cold and hot showers, I didn’t remember a thing. It had been a long time since I had done something as embarrassing as that. The worst part of it all was that I didn’t even remember what I did.Sighing in relief that he wasn’t in the room, I walked into the room. I hadn’t taken any clothes to the bathroom, and I was in a towel. My hair was dripping wet, and I grabbed a hair towel and began drying my hair. I shook my head to stop myself from thinking about what I did. It was all in the past. I don’t think about the past.Walking to the wardrobe, I picked out an outfit to wear and walked back to the bed. I let my towel drop and began creaming my body. A few moments later, I was dressed and walked out of the room to find the others. I still had no idea what Belle had done to Jessica or
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 69
ELODIEI scanned the area, searching desperately for an escape route. The wolves were closing in, their growls low and menacing. Just as they lunged at me, I paused, waiting for the perfect moment. As they jumped, I dodged swiftly, turning on my heel and sprinting towards the nearest passageway.If only I had my weapon, I could easily take down these wolves. But without it, I was vulnerable, forced to rely on speed and quick thinking.The wolves chased after me, their speed faster than I had anticipated. I glanced back just in time to see the white wolf leaping at me. With a quick turn, I took the path to the right, leading directly to the kitchen. I pushed open the door, hurried inside, and slammed it shut behind me.I locked the door as fast as I could. The wolves immediately began throwing themselves against it, their growls growing louder with each impact. Fortunately, the door was made of metal and sturdy enough to withstand their attacks—at least for a while. But if they couldn’
Alpha Tedros CHAPTER 70
ELODIEIt had been ten minutes since he offered to cook for me. I sat on the edge of the kitchen table, my heart pounding as I watched him slice through the beef with the butcher knife. The distance between us was only two centimeters, but it felt like an unbridgeable chasm. I couldn’t take my eyes off that knife. I needed to stay alert, just in case. If he decided to swing it at me, I had to be ready. The thought made my blood run cold, but this time, I wasn’t going to cower. If he tried to harm me, I would fight back. I had to.He glanced back, and our gazes locked. I forced myself not to flinch, not to look away.“Why are you staring at me so intensely?” he asked, one brow arched in amusement. “Are you that hungry?”“Yes,” I replied, my voice steady despite the fear clawing at my insides. “Can you finish cooking quickly?”“Alright,” he said with a smirk that sent a chill down my spine.I kept my eyes on him the entire time, tracking every movement, every flick of the knife.
