Alpha's Regret; She Has Our Son 17
Alexa povWith the surgery and work, there is so much on my mind, not to mention the fact that Lucien is a constant figure, making things easier for me. And now here's my kid who won't let the matter go. Well, he's four and never really had this, so how can I blame him?"So when is Lucien gonna come around again?" He asks so innocently, it's adorable, the kind that makes you forget you were pissed in the first place. "Am I gonna see him again?" With a hint of sadness in his voice and head dropped, he throws this question open to us both. Now, I personally want to shut this down, but at the same time, I don't want to hurt my boy, so I let Drake go first."Hey buddy, of course, we're going to see him again. I have some business with him, so he will be coming around much more often, and you can see him as much as you want. How does that sound?" Drake says smoothly without a glitch.He wasn't expecting the leap and hug from Trevor, but he welcomed it and returned it."Thank you, I'll be s

Drake's POVThe light filters through the blinds, and the room comes alive. I don’t need to check the time to know it’s half past 6, but I’ve already been awake for half an hour, lost in thought about my conversation with Alexa last night. She assured me that everything was alright and I had nothing to worry about, but I couldn't shake off the feeling. Anything that involved her made me feel this way. I knew it was Lucien. Only he could provoke her that way at that hour.I shake off the raging feeling and continue with my morning ritual before getting ready for work. Skipping breakfast is not the norm, but right now, I have no appetite for it. As I arrive at the office, Ken is the first person to approach me.“So boss, what’s good? You look like you're ready to rip into anything that comes an inch near you.”“So how come you can come talk to me?” I reply, maintaining my stride to get to my office.“Well, that’s because I’ve been around you long enough to know that you could never harm

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. But however, it all happened for the best and now he knows that he cannot be toying with me anyhow.I think I am all set now to leave and with one last look before I hear a chime from my cellphone. I

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
