REJECTED BY THE ALPHA CHAPTER 54
CRYSTAL'S POVI woke up to the sound of running water from the bathroom. Soft music was playing in the background from the music player box on the table close to the bathroom.I groggily sat up, rubbing my puffed eyes. I quickly took a sneak peek at the bed mirror stand hoping it wasn't obvious that I cried myself to sleep. There were sleepy bags underneath my eyes that all. It could be mistaken for sleepy bags so it was all good. I yawned and stretched my arms as I peered at the wall clock; It was 10 am in the morning. I wondered when I slept off. I wondered how long I was awake. All I could remember was that I cried myself to sleep. I didn't remember what happened afterwards.Anyway, I've decided to forget whatever happened in the early hours of the day and face the day as if nothing happened. But when he came into view, the content of the letter popped up in my head again. The contents of the romantic letters came back to haunt my consciousness...I took in a shuddering breath

CRYSTAL'S POVI gulped. How do I couch the question? How do I ask him what I said when I was drunk? How do I ask him if I made a mess of myself? At any rate, I was curious to find out what exactly I did or might have said last night."Crystal?" He called out, and I jumped as his hand touched my arm.Heat rushed to my cheeks, blazing like hellfire underneath my skin.He clicked his tongue as he lolled his head back and chuckled."Not you spacing out on me again." He shook his head.I wanted to kick my own ass mentally. I couldn't believe I had just spaced out on Xavier twice in a row. What happened to take charge of the situation? It was a hell of a difficult task now. It was like everything changed after I found the letters.Remember, no matter what, don't let him find out that you went snooping around his stuff and found the letters! But it was so hard. Anytime I stared at him, I was reminded of the contents of the letters. It drifted through the recess of my brain; it was as if i

CRYSTAL'S POV Oh my God! Did he find out that I had opened the box and found the letters?! Or I was simply overreacting?I sucked deep breaths through my lungs. My heart was a frantic drumbeat in my chest, my stomach a storm of nausea.He stepped out of his walk-in closet, his eyes darting all over my face dubiously.My breath hitched in my throat."Crystal?" He said again. Uncontrollably, my eyes lowered to the piece of towel tied lazily around his waist that had now dipped lower. I almost caught a glimpse of his groin.Instantly, my nipples hardened in reaction.I gulped and cleared my throat as I forced my gaze to look up at his searching face.What happened? And why did he call my name?"What?" I asked hoarsely. "I can't find something in my closet." He said, looking at me pointedly like I took whatever it was he was looking for.Wait! Hold on... What was that?I forced a lump down my increasingly dry throat as I forced my brain to recall if I had mistakenly tumbled anything

CRYSTAL'S POV His words were clipped and icy. And as they rolled out of his mouth, my heart was pounding relentlessly like a hailstorm against my chest.I swallowed as I watched him say those words. What the hell? He sounded so harsh! I don't even get this man at all. One minute, he sounded nice, and the other minute, he sounded harsh.But I needed that reality check, though. I was just his mate and an omega. I shouldn't forget that and get carried away. Maybe I was wrong after all.... all his so-called calm and nice demeanour towards me might be all a facade, and I kept falling right into it. Helplessly and hopelessly in love with my prisoner.I couldn't just leave here if I wanted to. My movements were limited. I never knew who was watching me. My life could pretty much mean nothing to him, and yet I fell in love with him. What was I even thinking? Did I actually think that there might be some sort of hope after I found those romantic letters between Xavier and Alicia? C'mon, now,

CRYSTAL'S POV In less than twenty minutes, I was ready. I put on something simple and light. It was summertime, after all, and it was probably hot outside.I needed to bask in the sunlight for a little tan, so wearing a light fabric was the suitable option. I pulled up my long dark brown hair into a ponytail. The embroidered dress was a little below my knee, and I put on a pair of brown sandals to match my chestnut-coloured dress.After one last satisfactory nod, as I assessed my reflection in the mirror at the dresser, I stepped out of the room quietly, locking the door behind me.I should get to the servant's quarters... Emily should be there. Or what does she usually do at this time?I peered at my hand-held wristwatch. The time read 12:10 pm. Wow, it was still quite early. I suddenly remembered when Emily mentioned that, in the early hours of the day, she was stationed in the laundry room. I was already making my way towards the servant's quarters when I halted and turned arou

CRYSTAL'S POV "Thank you, Amber. I need you to get Emily for me. Tell her that I'm waiting for her now and it's urgent." I said to Amber.She nodded frantically. "Of course! Give me a minute, and I will be right back with her." She offered me a wide smile, which I returned.She disappeared into the Laundry room, and in a couple of minutes, she returned, dragging Emily with her.My eyes lit up when I saw Emily."Emily! I was already worried that you wouldn't be here. Thank goodness you are here." I said airily with my arms outstretched. Emily chuckled and walked into my open arms."You look stressed," I said, breaking the hug to look at a pale face riddled with beads of sweat.She dabbed her napkin on her face and huffed out a deep breath."It's been a stressful morning. I've been up since 5 am, doing the laundry." She said, her brows wrinkled with stress.My heart lurched forward. While Emily was working her ass off, I was busy lounging on the bed, fantasizing about a man that I w

CRYSTAl'S POV"Ma'am?" The guard called out, yanking me to the present. I blinked repeatedly in shock.Damn it! Remembering he asked me a question, I quickly shot him a rueful smile.I exchanged a confused glance with Emily, who arched her brows at me."Um, that must have been super early or something." I laughed nervously.The guards looked utterly baffled as they eyed me as if I were a psychiatric patient who had been let loose.I quickly clamped my mouth shut and shot Emily a help- me -look.I was making it worse. Damn it! I thought I could handle this situation. Emily cleared her throat and offered the guards an apologetic smile."Um, what she was trying to say is that she needed my services, but there was some sort of delay back at the laundry house, so she had to wait for me."The guards exchanged a confused glance.One of them cleared his throat and tilted his head towards my direction, giving me the once-over look.I gulped.What was his deal, and why was he staring at me l

CRYSTAL'S POV "You're kidding, right?" Emily squealed at me with widened eyes.I shook my head frantically in the negative. "100% certain. Her name was literally in the letters, Emily. It's a love letter between Alpha Xaver Fernández and Alicia Evans." I narrated how I went snooping around his private study and the event that happened before that morning.Her mouth hung open like a fish on a hook throughout the entire narration.After I finished, silence hung in the air like a guillotine ready to drop. After a couple of minutes of silence, Emily rubbed her hands gently as she shook her head."I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. I can't believe this!" She croaked out.I nodded, shooting her a rueful smile."Neither can I. Who would have thought that Alicia of all people would be capable of love? At worst, she and Xavier, for that matter!""I know right? It just sounded so sour in my mouth." Emily said, scrunching up her face which earned her a giggle from me.I swatted
