He made his decision and started to talk, saying, "I, Alpha Valle—"But before he could finish, Alexa cut him off. She quickly punched him in the stomach. "You jerk!" she yelled, feeling a mix of anger and hurt. Her voice showed how much she felt betrayed.As she looked at Valle, Alexa felt frustrated. Her punch seemed to do nothing to him. He didn't even flinch or show any sign of pain. Fueled by her anger, she swung her arm again, trying hard to land a strong hit. She wanted him to feel the sting that she was feeling right then. But Valle easily dodged her punch, and a smug smile appeared on his face.This only added to her frustration. She tried again to hit him, but once more, he moved out of the way quickly. As they continued this playful but intense back-and-forth, there was a strange mix of excitement and energy between them. Each movement was filled with a blend of frustration, desire, and the urge to show who was in control. It was like a dance, their bodies caught in a stru
The sound of a knock echoed through the house, startling Alexa from her undressed state. She quickly grabbed her clothes, pulling them on in a frantic rush. "Valle, hurry!" she whispered urgently, glancing around the living room, which was a complete mess. Her heart pounded as the reality of their situation hit her. Another knock followed, more insistent this time, adding to her panic. She stumbled toward the door, her hands shaking as she fumbled with the handle.When she opened the door, Leonard stood there, his face a mix of confusion and suspicion. "What took you so long to answer?" he asked, stepping inside without waiting for an invitation. His eyes swept over the disarray of the room, finally landing on Valle, who was still buttoning up his shirt. Leonard's gaze lingered for a moment before he looked back at Alexa, raising an eyebrow in silent question."What happened here?" Leonard asked, his tone laced with curiosity and suspicion. Valle, tense and clearly uncomfortable, sta
Chapter 28"A sneeze? That's all I got?" Leonard said quietly to himself, frustration and disappointment hanging heavily in the air of his messy lab. For two whole days, he had worked hard to create an amazing new formula, hoping it would cause a big reaction. But instead of the grand outcome he dreamed of, all he got was Valle sneezing, which made him feel defeated.Leonard began to pace back and forth in his lab, and with every step, his frustration grew. He had put so much effort into this project, checking every detail to make sure it would work. It felt like he had done everything right, but now it seemed like all that work was for nothing.flashbackEarlier, Leonard had watched carefully from a hidden spot as Valle followed his instructions. He had handed Valle the formula and told him to spray it around the car that Valle and Alexa were going to use.As he waited anxiously for the results, Leonard felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. Valle and Alexa were getting closer to
Valle found himself unsure about what to do that weekend. He was used to spending time with Myra, but now that he had a rare break in his busy schedule, he felt a bit restless and lonely. Then, he remembered his friends Alexa and Rahilla. Maybe they would like some company! With that thought in mind, he decided to visit Alexa's home. A small smile appeared on his face as he walked toward the familiar door.When Valle stepped inside, he was greeted by the cheerful sounds of baby Rahilla squealing with joy. In the kitchen, he saw Alexa busy preparing breakfast. "Valle! What a nice surprise!" she said happily, her eyes shining with excitement when she saw him. Valle smiled back and replied, "I was just thinking about coming over to see you both."He walked to the living room, where baby Rahilla was playing on her colorful playmat surrounded by a bunch of toys. Valle bent down to get closer to her and began to make silly animal sounds. He pretended to be an elephant, making loud trumpetin
Alexa walked back and forth in the living room, looking at the clock. She quietly repeated to herself how frustrated she was as the minutes passed, making her even later. With a sigh, she tried to contact Valle, hoping to find out why he was late. But there was no answer.Feeling annoyed, Alexa decided she couldn’t wait any longer. She picked up baby Rahilla and held her close. Determined to go on with her plans without Valle, she walked to the door, ready to leave.Just as she was about to step outside, the door swung open, and Valle came in. Alexa’s urge to scold him faded when she saw the scar on his forehead. Worry filled her face, and she rushed to him, her voice filled with concern."What happened? Are you okay?" she asked urgently.Valle stepped back from her, acting colder than usual. "It'll heal, don't worry about it," he replied, brushing her off.Still anxious, Alexa quickly went to get the first aid kit. Even if it was a small cut, she wanted to be careful and avoid infect
The nice restaurant was full of chatter and soft jazz music playing in the background. Alexa sat elegantly at a table covered in white linen. Her dark curls fell beautifully over her shoulders. Across from her sat Paul, a good-looking man with a warm smile that made her heart race.“So, Paul, tell me about your recent trip to Europe. I want to hear about all the amazing places you visited,” she said.“It was amazing, Alexa. I went to so many beautiful cities—Paris, Rome, Barcelona. The buildings, the art, the food… everything was just breathtaking. I wish you could have been there with me,” Paul replied.As they joked and laughed, their smiles caught the attention of other diners. Everything felt perfect until Alexa noticed a familiar scent in the air, mixing with the delicious smells of the food. It was Valle's scent.Her eyes widened, and she turned her head to see Valle walking into the restaurant. He looked around until he spotted Alexa, and she could see the anger and jealousy in
Valle walked mindlessly past the colorful amusement park, watching families laugh and play together. He stopped for a moment to look at a family—a mother and father happily pushing their giggling kids on swings. The fun atmosphere made him feel something deep inside, a feeling he didn’t recognize from his own childhood.He felt a strong longing in his heart. It seemed like a world he couldn’t understand, a world that was always out of his reach.As he watched mothers pushing swings, fathers lifting their kids into the air, and the sound of laughter nearby, he remembered his own childhood. A wave of sadness hit Valle—he had never known the simple happiness he saw in front of him. His father, obsessed with power, only showed him the harsh side of life. Love and warmth were not part of his father’s world. His mother, too, was a victim of his father’s cruelty, too scared to give him comfort.Valle felt helpless as he realized he was stuck knowing only darkness and pain. The thought that
Chapter 33"I am not going to say I’m sorry!" Valle said defiantly, crossing his arms tightly over his chest.Alexa looked at him with a serious face. "Yes, you are going to apologize."Valle frowned, clearly frustrated. "What do you want me to apologize for? He asked for it.""He's hurt, Valle," Alexa replied firmly. "You really did hurt him."Valle narrowed his eyes at her, feeling upset. "He deserved what happened to him." There was a bitterness in his voice that was hard to miss.Alexa raised her voice a bit, sounding both angry and frustrated. "Valle!""I will not say I’m sorry—" Valle started to say, but suddenly the sound of the doorbell rang out, interrupting their argument.The doorbell ringing created a surprising break in their heated talk. Valle looked at Alexa with a mix of confusion and disbelief. "No! You did not just do that!" "Yes, I did, and you better apologize when he gets here," she insisted.When Alexa opened the door, Leonard stood there, looking like he was in
Valle, Alexa, and their daughter Rahilla woke up early on a beautiful, sunny morning. The sky was clear, and they were all excited to spend the day together as a family. After getting dressed and packing their bags, they loaded the car with everything they needed: sunscreen, snacks, toys for Rahilla, and even a portable grill for lunch. They were ready for a fun-filled day outdoors.Their first stop was a nearby park. Valle parked the car, and they found a perfect spot under a big shady tree. They spread out a blanket on the grass, and Alexa unpacked some toys for Rahilla. The baby giggled happily as Alexa played with her. Valle, on the other hand, got the portable grill ready to cook some burgers and hot dogs for lunch.As Valle prepared the food, he and Alexa chatted and laughed, enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The gentle breeze blew through the trees, rustling the leaves and making the perfect background noise to their family outing. Rahilla’s laughter echoed around them as she
The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room, gently illuminating Alexa’s peaceful face as she lay asleep. Valle sat quietly on the edge of the bed, watching her, his heart swelling with affection. The sunlight played upon her skin, and Valle couldn't help but be captivated by the sight of her. He marveled at how peaceful she looked, her chest rising and falling in the gentle rhythm of sleep. A small smile tugged at the corner of his lips, reflecting the warmth and love he felt for her—the woman who had captured his heart completely.As the sunlight grew brighter, Alexa stirred, her eyes slowly fluttering open. She met Valle’s gaze, and a soft blush crept across her cheeks as she realized he had been watching her. “Good morning,” Valle murmured with a tender smile, his fingers gently brushing her cheek.Alexa returned his smile, still a bit shy from his gaze. “Good morning,” she replied softly, her eyes momentarily lowering in a bashful gesture.V
Valle woke with a start, his heart pounding in his chest, his skin damp with sweat. He sat up quickly, gasping for air, still reeling from the nightmare that had gripped him. It felt so real, so vivid. In the dream, he had seen Alexa—his love—drowning in a swimming pool. Panic had surged through him, and he had sprinted towards her to help, only to be struck by a sudden, sharp pain in his chest. He turned, and there was Leonard, standing there with a twisted smile on his face and a gun pointed at him."Time’s up," Leonard had sneered, his hand steady as he pointed the weapon towards Alexa. But just as the gun fired, Valle had jolted awake, his body trembling in terror.Breathing heavily, Valle tried to shake off the lingering fear, but it clung to him. He wiped the sweat from his brow, his hands shaking. Then, suddenly, he heard Alexa’s voice echo in his mind, a desperate scream that sent a chill down his spine.Without wasting another second, Valle leaped out of bed. The fear from th
As Leonard stepped out of the monitoring room, a sinister grin crept across his face, twisting his otherwise calm features. The dim light in the hallway cast long shadows, accentuating the dark satisfaction in his eyes. Slowly, he made his way to his bedroom, where two additional versions of himself stood motionless, waiting.He pulled a small remote from his pocket, the device cold in his hand, and pressed a button. Instantly, the two clones powered down with a faint mechanical hum, their lifeless forms now resembling mannequins. Leonard’s grin widened as he stood over them, a sense of triumph swelling inside him.A laugh bubbled up from deep within, and soon, he was consumed by maniacal laughter, his voice echoing off the walls of the dimly lit room. He had done it. He had succeeded where others had failed, where his mentor had failed."I told you, didn’t I?" Leonard muttered to the shadows, his voice filled with conviction. "I told you, Mr. Sampson, that I would become the greatest
Valle walked quickly toward Alexa’s house, his heart pounding and his mind swirling with confusion and fear. His steps echoed in the quiet street as a storm of questions raged in his head. Who was Leonard really? How could he have been at his house and at Alexa’s place at the same time? Something was very wrong, and he needed answers.As he reached Alexa’s front door, he didn’t bother to knock. The urgency of the situation pushed him to act without thinking. His hand moved instinctively to push the door open, and it swung wide with a soft creak. Valle stepped inside, his eyes immediately searching for Alexa. She was in the living room, sitting on the couch with a cup of tea in her hands, clearly startled by his abrupt entrance. Valle wasted no time, his words rushing out before he could stop them. “Alexa, you have to listen to me. Leonard is not who you think he is. I just came from his house, and something is very wrong. He’s dangerous.”Alexa blinked at him, confused and caught off
It was late into the night when Alexa and Valle dragged Leonard into Alexa's small living room, struggling under his heavy weight. Leonard had passed out cold after drinking too much, his usually sharp features softened by the stupor of alcohol. His head lolled back as they managed to hoist him onto the couch, his body slumping awkwardly as they stepped back, both breathing heavily from the effort. The room was dimly lit, casting long shadows that made the air feel thick and suffocating. Alexa stood back, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear as she glanced nervously at Leonard’s unconscious form. Valle, standing on the other side of the room, leaned against the wall, his arms crossed. The silence between them was palpable, thick with unspoken tension. Alexa couldn’t meet Valle’s eyes, and he didn’t seem interested in offering any comforting words. They had been friends for years, but something felt different tonight. Something was shifting, and neither of them knew how to handle
Alexa and Valle sat in the car, ready to head home after what had been a long, eventful day. Alexa gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles whitening slightly. The day had drained her, and she was eager to be home. Just as she was about to start the engine, her phone rang, breaking the silence. She glanced at the screen, noticing it was an unknown number. Her brow furrowed in confusion, but she answered it anyway, a bit hesitant."Hello?""Hi, is this Alexa?" a female voice asked from the other end of the line.Alexa hesitated. "Who’s asking?""My name is Eve, from Lights Bar."Alexa raised an eyebrow. "Okay...?""There's a man here, Leonard. He’s really drunk, and he gave us your number as his emergency contact."Alexa sighed heavily, rubbing her temples in frustration. Of course, it was Leonard again. "Fine," she said, trying to contain her annoyance. "Send me the address, and I’ll come pick him up."The call ended, and Alexa leaned back in her seat, exhaling deeply. Valle,
Valle stood nervously at Alexa's door, his hand trembling as he knocked. His heart was pounding in his chest, and his mind raced with thoughts of worry and doubt. He had no idea how Alexa would react to seeing him in such a state. The door creaked open, and he was greeted by Alexa’s shocked expression. Her wide eyes took in his battered appearance—his torn clothes, bruised face, and the exhaustion that weighed on his every move. This wasn’t the confident, composed Valle she was used to seeing.“Valle! What happened?” Alexa's voice trembled with concern as she quickly ushered him inside. Her eyes scanned his injuries, filled with alarm.Valle collapsed into a chair, breathing heavily, trying to collect himself. Alexa stood by his side, her face filled with worry as she pleaded, “Please, tell me what happened.”Valle looked up at her, his eyes full of pain and desperation. “I was attacked,” he said, his voice strained.Alexa’s face paled with disbelief. “Attacked? By who? Who would dare
Valle walked quickly down the street, his heart light and a grin on his face. He felt an unexpected rush of happiness, a sense of joy bubbling up inside him like a newly opened bottle of soda. He couldn’t quite figure out what had made him so cheerful, but he didn’t mind. Maybe it was because Alexa had been showing him more affection lately. She had been more attentive, making him feel wanted and cared for. Baby Rahilla, too, had started to giggle whenever Valle was nearby, reaching out her tiny hands as if she couldn’t wait to be held by him. Or perhaps it was the steady progress he was making toward his goal. Whatever the reason, Valle embraced the moment, enjoying the warmth of it all.As he rounded a corner, Valle’s mood suddenly shifted. Two men stood in the middle of the path ahead of him. They were dressed in black from head to toe, their faces hidden in shadow. A sense of unease crept over Valle, and his excitement quickly faded, replaced by caution. He knew that men who appea
