Semua Bab THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL: Bab 111 - Bab 120

AUTUMN:Alpha Hugh was silent for a moment as if he was contemplating the right words he should answer. He should contemplate his answers because that would make me decide if I will accept him or not.I may be an omega and his slave, but it did not mean that I was going to beg for his love or something like that.The cold started digging inside my bare skin. Or maybe it was the dread I felt of the alpha's silence. Which only meant one thing: he was uncertain about where I stood in his life.Pathetic."I'm not anyone's replacement, Sir Hector. Pamela is different. She was Gabriel's mother. While me, on the other hand, is nothing but an omega and slave of this household. ""Autumn..." There was a heavy pang inside my chest. I was not in pain. There was no way I was. “Let me talk to Dad.” He faced his dad. My heart hammered against my chest and dread washed over me. Until now, I was not ready or anything like that. Why did I get scared whenever Alpha Hugh would tell someone about us be

AUTUMN:Focus, Autumn!Your goal right now was to escape the alpha. Not to admire him at all.I was not admiring him!You were always observant when he was around. Wake up, Autumn! Now is not the time to lose focus.I put both of my hands in front of his rock-hard chest and tried to push him away. He would not even budge. Damn it.Lifting my gaze, we stared at each other’s eyes.“Why are you doing this, Alpha Hugh?”“Since we will now date, you may call me by my name when we are alone together.”“Did I say I will date you?”He smiled, showing his perfectly white teeth. Despite the absence of his dimples unlike Eric, he was still handsome.‘Nothing surpasses his looks in your eyes,’ Trisha teased inside my head.‘Shut up. I did not even think about that,’ I scolded. ‘Would you leave me alone?’She rolled her eyes and was suddenly gone. Remembering I was still trapped in the alpha’s arms, I asked, “What’s the use of dating me?” When do I plan to reject you a few weeks from now? This

115AUTUMN: “Mom! That’s enough disrespect!” Hugh exclaimed, his voice echoing across the four walls of this room. “Slave or not, you should treat people with respect. I will never tolerate any of this. You know I always treat my people with the same respect I give you.” Luna Joy’s eyes narrowed. “You’re raising your voice at me now. All because of that woman? Was she good in bed? Did that woman bewitch you?” “Nothing of that sort happened, Luna Joy. I did not know any kind of witchery,” I explained. She pointed her fingers at me and snarled, “Don’t talk when you were not asked to! Hearing your voice will only make everything worse. I hate it. I hate everything about you.” My heart felt like it was being ripped apart.Of all the women I know, Luna Joy was the only one whom I expected as someone who would understand me. But now. It did not happen. She was the first one who did not understand me. She was full of judgments. We just kissed. Twice, but I was already a whore in he

AUTUMN:Beta Maddox was oblivious to the tension inside the dining room. He went straight to the refrigerator, opened it and grabbed a bottle of cold water.He entered the room as if he was drunk, and could not even walk straight. Groggily entered the room and did not even see that we were there. Was he that oblivious? Or was he that sick? I found myself on the verge of standing and helped him, but then realized I was in the presence of Hugh’s mom. Which reminded me that I forgot to send him any food at all. How could I eat right now, without even remembering that he was also hungry? Maybe he was only forced to enter the kitchen all because he had no one to order.Damn it.Despite the kind of relationship we had, I could not fathom leaving him alone in his room to die. Still not seeing us, he returned to where he came from, back to his own private room where he could rest again.When everyone was no longer in shock at the beta’s sudden arrival, Luna Joy called him, but it seemed

AUTUMN:I was expecting that the beta would give his rebuttal. That he would say it will never happen. That he will never regret rejecting me. But instead, he looked away."Will I?""I was only teasing you," I said, taking back my words when I saw the expression on his face. It seemed as if he regretted everything he did to me. Or maybe I was only delusional. That might be the best explanation. There was no way he would regret rejecting me. "Of course, that won't happen. You love your beloved Sabrina. And when you marry, the love you feel for each other will deepen even more.""Is that how you look at it?""Yes. That's what will happen shortly since you chose Sabrina over me. You should make sure that it will be worth it,” I pressed and waited for his reaction. He heaved a sigh and met my gaze. "I don't really know."I chuckled. “Don't tell me you're in doubt after everything?" Beta Maddox did not join my happiness.To hide the awkwardness, I laughed out loud.Damn it. Why don’t you
