All Chapters of A Deal with the Mysterious Alpha: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I sat by the window of a tavern far away from Nightsong but near my father's home, debating whether or not to go home and see what other secrets my father was hiding. Torn, my eyes looked out the window.The basement, the hospital, the drugs, the crazy woman, the strange Hank and my strange father…What was the connection?The basement was discovered at Nightsong, and things that were left behind by my father were also discovered here. What secrets were there? What secrets did Hank have?These thoughts had plagued me for several days, and during that time, I never once laid eyes on Edmond. Was he angry at me? I rejected him that day. Would he continue to cooperate with me? My head was spinning. Strange things and the inconsistency of Edmond were driving me crazy! Wait… My attention was grabbed by a man across the road in front of me. Was that... Hank? Why was he here? This territory was far from his packland, and why did he not bring a driver? This was not his usual style, he always

The moment Irene turned around, Edmond pounced on me. He pressed me against the car seat and kissed me. This position made his kiss deeper than ever before. I felt like I could barely breathe.I wanted to resist because my tongue had been numbed by Edmond's kiss, almost to the point of unconsciousness, but I was afraid that Irene would hear the commotion in the car and lean over to check. She was already less than five feet away from the car.There was no other scenery outside the car window, only the pink color of Irene.I was almost afraid to breathe for fear of attracting Irene's attention. Edmond, however, acted as if no one was outside the car. He unbuttoned the top two buttons of my shirt, exposing a large part of my collarbone.Edmond kissed my collarbone, occasionally making kissing sounds when his lips touched my skin. I thought the sound was so loud that it could penetrate the car window and was clearly in Irene's ears.Bang, bang, bang. My heart was pounding like a thunderst

"Stop joking, Edmond." I smiled at him. He was a real flirt.I remembered how the burly guest tried to hit on me that day. He was exactly like Edmond. I didn't know if my neck was really so beautiful.Edmond put me down and pushed me until we were a meter apart."You wanna eat out or hang out?" Edmond held my hands without making his way over."Or both," I answered. It was either sex or quarrel with Edmond. It seemed that we had never truly hung out as a couple.Finally, we agreed on having seafood in the open air.The sunset lingered on the sky and dyed the sea golden. As the night breeze blew gently past me, I flung my hair back up and I stared at Edmond across from me.He was wearing a t-shirt and jeans today as opposed to his usual garb of a shirt. He looked just like any other man on the street, except that he was unbelievably handsome.There was no fancy dinner or clothes. We hung around the beach while enjoying the breeze and sunset like any other couple. We also kissed amid th

I remembered what Hank had just said. Something was wrong. I tugged at Edmond's sleeve and said anxiously, "Let's go. I remember dad mentioning that Hank had an elite omega squad. They might be on their way over now."Unfortunately, it was too late. I heard a series of footsteps coming up the stairs, but they seemed to be waiting for something and didn't rush in immediately.Edmond went back to being an unruly playboy. He was even in the mood to carry me to the bathroom. He walked to the sink and picked up my right hand which had been licked by Hank.He held my hand and washed it carefully under the water. His handsome face was soft under the light, and his focused expression made him look exceptionally gentle.My heart instantly calmed down. He put my washed hand to his lips and kissed it as if he wanted to cover all the smell left behind by Hank.Blood rushed to my cheeks. I cowered and wanted to pull back my hand to stop him, but I didn't have any strength to do so.He seemed to be

I rushed all the way to the hospital. Then I rushed into the emergency room with Liana in my arms. The doctor instructed the nurses to put Liana on the bed and push her into the operating room.I paced anxiously back and forth outside the operating room, silently blaming myself for not taking her with me earlier. I couldn't imagine what I would do if I did lose her.Time passed very slowly. As each painful second passed, I heard a soft sound. I turned my head and saw that the red light in the operating room had turned green.I hurried to the door. It was pushed open and Liana was wheeled out. I approached the doctor to inquire about the situation."The operation was successful, but she's not out of danger yet. It depends on whether she can wake up within the next twenty-four hours."My heart, which was barely at ease, became nervous again. I followed her bed all the way to the ward but was stopped by the medical staff. It was the ICU ward.I saw that Liana was connected to various medi
