CHAPTER SIX
[What’s going on]
************
Rose’s POV
************
We soon got to the venue, Collins’ apartment and we hopped out of Levi’s car. Music was already booming everywhere. “Wow, such a party mood,” Levi remarked. I nodded my head in agreement, anticipating the fun.
I could notice that Levi hesitated before walking towards the door. Just as we were about to enter, he grabbed me by my hand and I turned towards him with a confused look.
“Stay close to me.” He said and I nodded. We headed inside and other students from the school were already there. I looked around searching for a quiet place to sit. Not a fan of drinking and dancing like a maniac. Levi’s words rang in my head again and breathed.
I waddled through the crowd and went to sit at a corner.
“Oh, see. Who’s here?” I heard Hadley yell over the music. I shifted uncomfortably on the seat and looked around for Levi.
“Hi,” I said nonchalantly, looking at the set of the people that were dancing. Then suddenly, I felt a presence behind me. I smiled and turned. I saw Levi, glaring daggers at Hadley who did nothing but bow. I smirked as I watched Hadley scurry off.
“You don’t need to scare the sh*t out of them. They ain’t worth it.” I yelled and Levi flopped down on the seat next to mine.
“Wanna dance?” He asked with raised eyebrows. I shook my head negatively and picked a glass of wine from the waiter that was passing by.
I suddenly felt pressed.
“I will be in the toilet,” I said to Levi and left my purse with him. Getting to the toilet was hard since I did not know my way around here. I saw a tag on the wall that had an arrow and a writing ‘Toilet here’. I walked towards it and saw the door. I pushed the door open and went in.
After I was done, I flushed and stood up, staring at the mirror, trying to make sure was good. Then I felt the door open, just as I was about to turn, something was sprayed on my face, making my vision blurry.
I almost fell on the floor but instead, I leaned against the wall.
“Who are you?” I managed to ask. Then I heard a scoff. Just two steps towards me and I felt something pierce through my skin. I gnashed my teeth and tried forcing my eyes open. Then it was pulled out.
“You should have stayed away from him. Anyways, have a nice time at the party.” I heard a feminine voice say and walked out. I suddenly started slipping into a state of unconsciousness.
Then I heard a familiar voice growl angrily and run towards me.
“Rose.” He called out but I could not answer. I felt like my lips were sealed or something. I felt like I was carried in a bridal manner and I could feel the breeze as it blew by. Then suddenly, I felt drops, no, fall of water on me. I shuddered and forced my eyes open.
“Rose… Sh*t… You scared me.” Levi said with worry and concern as he knelt close to me. I looked around and saw that I was not familiar with this place.
“Where is this place?” I asked with scrutiny.
“My house.” He replied and I sprang up instantly. He brought me to the Alpha’s house?.
“Why? What happened?” I asked.
“Don’t you think I should be the one asking you that questions? Like you told me you were going to the toilet and for some minutes, you did not come back. I felt so worried and came to meet you. I saw you, you were kinda dizzy and disoriented.” He said. I looked at him.
Remembering the incident.
Yes, I told him I was going to the toilet.
But who was the person that sprayed something on my face?
What was I injected with?
I slowly brought my hands to the place that I was pierced in and rubbed it. I looked at it to see if there was any mark or anything.
I saw nothing and the pain was already gone.
“Thank you. I should return home now.” I said and I realized that I was soaked with water from head to toe. I swallowed hard and looked at Levi who stared at me with… Lust. I licked my lips nervously and cringed under his intense glare. I cleared my throat so loud and he seemed to regain his posture. He headed out first and I followed suit.
I saw him, ransacking through his wardrobe.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“This should be okay for you.” He said, bringing a big top out. I collected it. Not like I have any choice. I would wear it on top of my own.
You don’t expect me to change my clothes here.
I am quite self-conscious.
I quickly wore it and I could hear him groan.
“Thanks, will do well to return it,” I said.
“You don’t need to do that. I will drop you off.” He said and we both exited his room.
The Alpha’s house was a huge one. Like Levi’s room is the addition of two rooms in my house. Not to talk of the living room that looked like some royalty own. Well, they are the Alpha. So they are more or less royalty.
We got into his car and he drove off.
After a while, he parked the car and I got down. We did some pleasantries and I walked into my house.
I hurried into my room to change since my parents were not back yet.
*Some weeks Later*
Levi always did well to remind me that his birthday was approaching and that I should get him a gift. Well, I don’t blame him. On most of his birthdays, I always forget to get him a gift and that annoys him.
He has been reminding me for the past two weeks and now, I am standing in front of the mirror, trying to look my best.
Ever since I came from the party. I have been feeling jittery and sensitive. Sometimes, I would find my hand going down to my private region.
I told my mother about it and after so many trials, she agreed to take me to a doctor.
When the report came out, we were told that there was nothing wrong with me.
I stared at the little package I got for Levi. I know mine may not be the best, at least, I got him something for this year.
Levi and I have always been friends ever since I resumed in South Weston. He always stood up for me and it was quite an advantage for me since he was the alpha’s son.
I got him a silver wristband with his name *Levi* inscribed on it. I bet he would love it.
I carried my little pink purse and dashed out of the room. It’s noon already. And my parents don’t need to know about my outings. It’s not like they care anymore.
I stepped into the cab that was awaiting me and he drove off.
I got to the Alpha’s house. Well, I am still quite scared about coming there but I’ve got no choice. Levi is my friend.
I got down and walked with hesitation towards the huge door that served as the entry.
I pushed the door open and saw a few people there. Guess, it was not a big one. I looked around, avoiding the gaze of the people around me.
Then suddenly, I came in contact with that familiar pair of eyes. I beamed a smile and he walked towards me.
“Hey, it’s quite noisy in here. Let’s go outside.” He said, grabbing my hands and he led me outside to the woods.
“As the celebrant, you should not be far away from your party.” I teased.
“Well, my mother forced me to throw one.” He shrugged.
Then we stopped right in front of a tree and I looked at him.
“Hey, this is what I got you,” I said, handing the package over to him. He had this shocked expression on as he collected it from me. He went through it and saw a bracelet.
He pulled it out and read the word that was inscribed on it out.
“Levi.” And I smiled.
then suddenly, my skin started feeling sensitive. The hairs on my skin stood at their ends.
