Alpha's Regret; She Has Our Son 19
Alexa's POVAfter dropping off the documents with the finance department and giving them their orders, I head back to my office to get the little I can done and treat myself to brunch a bit later. I don’t show it, but I'm famished, and all I can think about at that moment is food. I'm a bit grateful that Drake doesn't have any more work cut out for him at the moment. Well, except the big question, which I still have to answer. I'm extremely grateful that he's not taking every moment of our time to notice and bug me about it. Time spent in his presence is fun and relaxing. I actually like spending time with him, and he's a great guy. I don't want to carry all my baggage and wreck that. This is just one of those thoughts that plague you when you're hungry, I guess, so I have to wrap this up and eat. ASAP. I'm just rounding up, and the intercom starts buzzing. I don’t answer at first because I don’t want anyone to know I'm in my office, and two, if it's Drake, I don't have the willpower

Lucien“I can’t believe that bastard cut the call on me. Who the hell does he think he is? I won't let it bother me because when it’s all said and done, Alexa and I will be together, and Drake will not be able to do anything about it. So I won’t let inconsequential people bother my peace of mind this morning.” I just realized that I have been talking out loud in my office, and thankfully no one is there to notice my outburst.I take a moment to look through my office view and admire the city’s skyline as it helps to calm me down whenever I’m having moments like this. Breathe in and out. I get back to my desk and remember that I sent something to Alexa this morning and ponder if I should reach out now or wait for a little while. If I do now, I may come off too strong, and if I don’t, it may become stale. I decide to reach out because what’s the worst that could happen.“Hey Alexa,” I type and hit send. And now I wait.She doesn’t respond, and after a few minutes, I message her again. “

Lucien “You know, Drake, you should mind your goddamn business.”“Not when that business concerns me, I wouldn’t.” Drake gets in my face, and I step up too, not about to back down. “So, you better tell me what exactly is your deal here making absurd demands and making threats because I assure you that I do not respond well to threats, so do mind your words and what you say or do next time, okay, Bob?”“Oh, big man, I’m so scared of you; I’m shaking in my shoes. You talk tough a lot for someone who is depending on me at the moment, and you better listen to me because this might get ugly fast.”“Well, that’s depending on whether you back off on all this shit and stop making stupid demands and bothering Alexa with the call, the gifts, and basically with trying to force me to give her to you like she is some sort of object that I can just hand over to you.”“It’s not like that, you imbecile! I don’t see her as some object that should be passed around.”“Then what is it you want because y

Lucien stares in disbelief at Drake. He can't believe that he is threatening to go that far, even though he knows he has no moral standing as he issued the first threat. However, this direct attack is too much. It would be one thing if he told his parents after achieving his mission to get Alexa back because he would be ready to face them. But for them to hear it from someone else while still actively pursuing would be chaotic, especially with his mom, whom he knows would not take the news kindly."I can't believe you would go so far as to jilt my folks so that you can keep me away from Alexa," Drake says with a light laugh. He somewhat admires the audacity of Drake to want to out him this way."Well, better believe it.""You really have some balls there.""And you are selfish and unkind to Alexa, bothering her with the calls, the gifts, the threats to this deal. You are so self-serving, and she does not deserve all this in her life.""You know nothing about me, Drake.""Oh yeah, I do

Alexa's POVI run out of the room, wiping the now cool tea off my body. It stings like hell back there, and I know that bitch Elena got her fill from watching the hot tea nearly burn my skin. I hear footsteps after a push from the room door, but I don’t check to see who it is because what I need most at that moment is a nice relaxing bath when the day ends. But for now, I'll settle for a clean towel to wipe this stain off me. There should be some in the locker room.“Alexa, wait.”I recognize the voice, and it's one of the last people I want to deal with in that moment. I try to ignore him.“Alexa, I know you can hear me.”“Alexa, please wait a minute. Let me help you.”“Lucien, stay away from me.” He grabs my hand and forces me to stop. “Lucien, I swear to God, if you don’t let me go, this might be the last time you use your hands.”“I don’t want any help, especially from you, Lucien. Please, for the love of God, leave me alone.”“Alexa, come on. I know you don’t mean it that way.”“

“Okay Alexa you can do this, come on girl don’t let what these men and that stupid Elena both get to you and turn you into a savage. Your bigger than all that. Better than all that and you are going to show them that they can not do anything to change that because you are always going to rise above the occasion”.The pep talk had gone on for a few minutes because I have to give myself the much needed assurance that I can take what they are throwing at me and come out on top of it all without a scratch. I take a look at my hands one more time and we’ll maybe in this case without mute scratches as they had already drawn first blood.I can still Remember Lucien’s stricken face when I rejected him again and the pain he felt although he deserved it I could not still but feel a bit bad for him.

Alexa’s POVI don’t know how long I can put up with these declarations as they are beginning to affect me more than I can explain or handle, not to talk of Elena on the other end with her threats to completely assassinate my character without regard if I don’t leave Drake and inform Lucien’s wife that I’m after her husband. The whole situation is driving me crazy. Drake is right by her side, asking if I’m okay, and to that, I reply I’m fine. I’m rubbing my forehead so hard now I won’t be surprised if I took off my skin anytime soon.“Alexa, are you sure you’re fine? I could send Elena to get you something,” Drake leaned in to talk to me, but I could see Elena’s reaction, and I can’t decide if it’s because she heard her name or because he leaned in.“You need to focus on the deal, Drake, and ignore me.”“You know I can’t do that, you don’t look well.”“And I wonder why that is?” I shoot him a rhetorical look.“Come on, Alexa, that’s not fair.”“Not fair is having to sit through this af

While Cole is speaking to me, Elena comes back in and I waste no time in going to her to appeal to her not to use what she has against me.“Elena, please, I have nothing against you and I don’t want us to be having these issues. I’ll do what you want, but please let’s not do anything that will jeopardize my life as it is in this place already.”“It’s a little too late for that already, and worse still, it’s affecting the company. If you weren’t such a selfish slut, all these things wouldn’t be happening.”“Elena, mind your words. You don’t use such words on a colleague. Now apologize.” Cole could be playful, but the person in front of me was a completely different person. The order came with a tone that carried a deadly threat with it. It was something I had never seen before, and it was comforting that he was standing up for me, but frightening at the same time because I did not know what he was fully capable of.“I’m sorry, Alexa.”“Good girl.” The old Cole was back in an instant, a

Authors povDrake tells Cole about how much he likes her and how hurt he felt there last week with Lucien all over her trying to make her his girl. Especially with the negotiations going on and trying to make her part of the deal.“See Cole I don’t want her to actually work for Elena but I have to do this and keep her at a distance Lucien be a the more she is close by the more he feels like he can get her and I simply cannot let that happen” Drake explains to Cole.“So if you do like her this much why would you have to do all this? I really don’t see the need to be all mean and non chalant about the whole Elena thing because it is well within her rights to refuse to do anything that is not within her employment” Cole says to Drake.“I know that but I had to draw a boundary between us. No matter how I much I feel about her I am still her boss and that respect needs to be there”“As much I understand this what you did this lot was going a little of the top to stamp your authority wasn’t
Alpha's Regret; She Has Our Son 28
Author’s POV)It’s the first day for Alexa to work under Elena, and she completely hates the idea of doing it and the fact that she is actually going to be doing it daily for the time being. She hates that Drake is doing this to her for trying to leave the office. Now she’s not only still sick here with all that has happened but also having to work directly under, not with, but under Elena. She walks into the office, and the air feels thick, and she wonders if it has always been like this and swears that it was not always this way. Maybe it was her mood that made the place feel gloomy and dark.Alexa heads to her office, and on her way, she runs into Drake, having an uncomfortable encounter.“Hi, good morning,” Alexa greets and forces a smile.“Yeah, morning,” Drake mumbles a reply and walks by without saying another word, which is unlike him. But she understands and does not want to pursue it further. She slowly picks up her pace and continues to her office to settle down before the

The constant vibration from my phone disturbed the peace and tranquility of the morning. This morning, my sleep has been going off and on as I have tried to force myself to sleep away through the pain of Alexa’s rejection and frustration of the contract.Nothing was going according to plan, and I experience and feel new levels of anger and frustration every time I wake up and realize my situation. Now, to add to that, someone is blowing up my line this early morning, and honestly, I’m not having it.My two guesses will be Letty and my Mum. They were the only two people who have the mindset to bother me this morning. However, I have no intention of dealing with them this early morning but finding my peace of mind. The calls, however, don’t stop, and I can’t switch my phone off, so I have to answer.“Oh my God, Lucien, I have been calling for ages now. Why didn’t you pick up?” Letty screams into my ear. “I may have been shot or in real danger, and you would not have answered on time. Wh
