REJECTED: The Alpha Behind The Mask

Alpha Eric’s POVProperty © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“What’s this.” I asked while taking the piece of paper from Gracie’s hand. “It’s the list of the people who wish to spend a day with you.” she explained while staring at me with a big smile on her face.

I groaned and kept the paper in my jacket pocket. “I will come later to take the name you’ve chosen.” She said, and moved over to the next DOM. I moved my gaze around and noticed most Doms were holding the same paper as me.

” This is ridiculous.” I groaned as I took out the paper from my pocket and ran a quick gaze at the names listed on the paper.

I saw the names of different subs I have had sex with and even the name of the last sub I just had sex with a few days ago. I stared at the list annoyed, until I saw a name that made me numb. “Victoria.” I called out in disbelief.

I knew she liked me as DOM Tim, but I never knew it was up to that extent of wanting to spend a day with me. With a frown, I stared at the name and felt extremely excited seeing her name on the list. I glared at the name and wondered how fun it would be if I could get the chance to spend a whole day with her.

Without further thought, I took out my pen from my pocket, ticked out her name and kept it back in my pocket before taking a sip of my drink with a big grin on my face. A few minutes later, Gracie came back and collected the paper from me, “We will announce the names in the bar.” She smiled at me before leaving.

” Hey!” I tried communicating with my wolf, but he was silent and numb, like he didn’t exist. Sighing heavily, I emptied my glass and left the VIP lounge.

I went to the bar and sat with other Doms as we waited for the names to be called out. I peeked around and caught a glimpse of Victoria. She was staring at me with curiosity, it was obvious I knew what she was thinking.

“Good evening Doms and subs, as usual, we’re celebrating our anniversary and every sub or worker in this club has a chance to spend a whole day with a DOM if he or she is being picked by the DOM”. The manager said and took out a paper from his pocket. “I’ll call out the names.” He slightly lowered his head and began calling out the names.

“DOM Mike has chosen bartender Linda.”

“DOM Eli has chosen sub Jennifer.”

“DOM Tim has chosen bartender Victoria.” The moment he said those words, I could hear whispering and murmuring around, which I ignored and made eyes with Victoria.

She stared back at me with stunned eyes, but I could see a small childish smile on her face, and I wished I could see that on her forever. Unknowingly, I smiled back at her and realized what I had just done. Quickly, I frowned at her and looked away from her.

“What are you doing.” I murmured to myself, as I roughly ran my fingers through my hair before standing on my feet with other Doms.

I was on my way to the VIP lounge when I noticed someone was following me. I turned around and saw it was the last sub I had sex with.

“Good evening, DOM Tim.” She greeted with a weak smile. “How are you?” I asked, even though I knew why she was here. “I’m not fine, DOM Tim, you didn’t treat me well at all.” She grumbled with a frown. “I thought you would choose me since we enjoyed the last time together, but rather you went on and selected a naive bartender who isn’t a sub.” She spoke in a calm voice, but I could notice the anger in her voice. “I thought you liked me and would love spending more time with me.” She grumbled.

Those words from her made me chuckled, and I had to take a step closer to her. “You won’t tell me what to do.” I uttered out firmly. “I had a pleasant night with you and I paid for it, so I don’t own any obligation to you or anyone.” I declared firmly.

”But…” She tried speaking, but I shut her up with my hand. “Know your place and limit.” I warned her and walked away.

I got to the VIP lounge, took a seat and noticed DOM Eli sat on the seat right before me. “So you chose her, huh?” He said while taking a sip of his drink. “You know it’s risky to spend the whole day with her when you are hiding your identity from her.” He warned and dropped his glass on the table.

Those words from him made me realize he was right, and I did not even think about it. How was I going to pretend to be someone else for an entire day without she finding out my identity.

“You like her, right ?” Eli asked, while staring at me with curiosity.

I scoffed at his words and took a sip of my drink before speaking, “And what makes you think I’m into her.” I asked with raised eyebrows.

He chuckled and glared around to see if anyone was around before leaning closer to me. “Because she is your mate, and we can’t resist our mate for so long.” He expressed those words like he was so sure of it. “No matter how hard you try, you can resist her for a while, but not forever. Good thing that she is a human and won’t feel the torture of you cheating on her, but I’d advise you not to take it for granted.” With those words, he sat back on his seat and picked up his glass from the table.

Hearing those words from him, I couldn’t say a thing because I knew he might be right. “I need to go.” I stood and left the VIP lounge because I didn’t want him blasting words at me.

I went to a bar stand and sat on the high stool. “A bottle of water.

“Yes sir.” A familiar voice responded,

I looked up and murmured in regret when I realized I was in Victoria’s bar stand. She hurried to me with a bottle of water and a glass. “Here you have it, sir.” she kept the water and glass on the table while smiling at me like a little kid who has been given some candy.

I locked eyes with her and had the urge to smile back at her, but I held myself back, “Can I help you with something?” I asked, pretending to be annoyed by her behavior. She swallowed nervously before speaking, “The water is on me.” She said those words as a whisper while avoiding my gaze. “Really ?” I asked while raising my eyebrows at her. She smiled shyly and said, “That’s my appreciation for choosing to spend a day with me.” She spoke excitedly. I smiled at myself and poured the water in the glass before taking a sip of it, wondering what would happen If she knew who I was.

After a moment of silence, she cleared her throat and bite her lips nervously. “So I was wondering where we could meet.” She asked, and gulped.

“I’ll call you.” I groaned and stood to my feet.

“How will you call? You don’t have my number.” She asked, giving me a curious look.

“Shit.” I murmured to myself when I realized I had just made a mistake. “I’ll take your number from your manager.” I said quickly and confidently, so she wouldn’t suspect a thing. Damn, I’m a good actor.

“Oh, I see.” She smiled at me and tucked her hair behind her ears, reveling my mark on her.

When She noticed I was staring at her neck, she quickly removed her hair from the back of her ears and let it fall on her shoulders. “I was playing with our neighbor’s dog, and he injured me with his teeth. But it’s okay, I’ve already visited the hospital and took some injections.” She murmured nervously.

Those words from her made my silent wolf growled with anger, sending a different kind of anger to me. She was so ashamed to let someone know she was claimed by me.

Angrily, I groaned, took out my wallet from my pocket and kept some dollars on the table. “You don’t have to, I’ve already told you the bill is on me.” She pleaded, took the money from the table and brought it fort to me.

I stared at her coldly, and I could notice the color of my eyes were changing, so I had to look away from her before speaking, “Women don’t pay my bills.” I said and walked away.

Furthermore, I left the club, went into my car and drove off. Angrily, I slammed the steering of the car as I drove back home. “How dare she!” I yelled out angrily and continue slamming the steering of the car with rage.

She had been covering my mark with clothes and never wanted to show it to anyone. She felt ashamed of my mark, a mark that many people could kill for, but she had it, and she was embarrassed about it.

I got home, parked the car in the garage and got out of the car.

“Welcome alpha.” my driver lowered his head in respect.

I nodded my head to his greetings, threw the keys to him and walked inside the house. Furthermore, I took the stairs to my room, got to my room and pulled off my mask. I went further and took off my clothes before going to the bathroom.

I released a sigh of relief as the cold water from the shower splashed on my body. I quickly took a quick bath and went back to my room.

I put on a loose underwear and lay on the bed with so many thoughts buzzing in my head.

Firstly, I had to spend a whole day with Victoria while acting to be someone else with my mask on. The thought of that scares me, but also excites me.

I roughly ran my fingers through my hair and tossed around on the bed while the thought of what Victoria did today at the club filled my thoughts.

I realized she must really hate me so much to fabricate such a lie to me and everyone. ” Damn it!” I groaned and tried to force myself to get some sleep, but I couldn’t. Sighing heavily, I left the bed and took out my phone from the bedside and was about to call her when I realized I was about to call with my first phone, the number she knew as Eric’s.

”Get a grip of yourself.” I urged myself and kept back the phone. I went to my drawer, pulled it out and took out a new and different phone. I switched on the phone and copied her number from my other phone before dialing it.

It rang a few times before it was picked,

“Hello.” Came her low seductive voice. She was seducing me even without trying.

I sucked a deep breath and cleared my throat before speaking, “Hello.” I called out.

“DOM Tim.” She responded happily like she had been expecting my call.

“Where do you live, so I can come pick you up.” I asked even though I knew where she stays. “I’ll send the address to you.” she whispered casually, but I could notice the excitement in her voice.

“Fine, get ready by 9am.” I did not let her say a word before ending the call.

Groaning, I threw the phone on the bed and roughly ran my fingers through my hair, having a questioning thought of my decision.

I knew tomorrow was going to be a significant and special day, and I could feel it in my bones.
