Maya
He was still talking to the man when his eyes suddenly drifted to her side. He immediately dropped the cutlery on the table with a loud sound, cutting off the man who was still talking to him.
He saw that a guy was sitting opposite her, but what got him and his wolf annoyed the most was that the guy was holding her hands and giving her a smile, which made his stomach churn.
He stood up and pushed the door open. He walked towards them and raised his voice. “What the hell are you doing? Did I bring you here to have fun with a guy?!”
Ellie was so scared that he might reveal her secret; she turned to Alex and said, “I’m so sorry, Mr. Warren. Forgive me for my mistake.”
Alex was dumbfounded. He looked at the guy and looked back at Ellie before smirking. “Mr Warren?! He asked, looking at her.
“I understand what’s going on here.” He said, still smiling. He moved forward to Sam and said, “Stop whatever is going on in your mind. She’s mine.” He said, looking at him with his intimidating eyes; he remembered him as the guy she went to dinner with. Since then, he hasn’t liked anything about him.
He walked past them and walked out of the restaurant without looking back at them; he also didn’t look back or care about the investment he came there for. He just walked out, expecting Ellie to follow him.
Ellie was so ashamed that she couldn’t even look up to him. “I’m sorry.” She whispered, but before she could leave, Sam grabbed her arm and asked. “What’s going on?” but she couldn’t find any word to say to him; she just took his hand away from her arm and left the restaurant.
They both sat in the car without talking to each other, but Ellie could hear him grumbling. She wanted to ask him why he said that in front of everyone, but she decided to just talk about it when they got out of the car.
She noticed that the car was not going towards the company. It was going towards the house. When they got home, the car was packed in front of the house. She was about to get out when she heard him scoff. Mr Warren?!
Alex was so angry that he didn’t even know where to ask his questions. He’s even angrier than his wolf. “That guy should pay for trying to get close to my mate.” His wolf growled.
He did not bother talking to her in the car, but when the car stopped. His driver got out of the car, leaving only him and Ellie. After some time, he saw that she was about to open the door when he asked with a smirk. “Mr Warren?!”
“Who’s that guy? How is he to you?!” He asked in anger, but when he saw that she was just staring at him without replying or saying anything, he raised his voice. “I’m talking to you.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
But Ellie still didn’t reply; she opened the door and got out of the car. What? Alex asked, looking at her without answering. He also got out and dragged her back. “Have you suddenly gone deaf?!”
“No. I heard you loud and clear, but I don’t see how that concerns you.” She said, raising her voice at him the same way he did when he asked her the question.
Huh?! He scoffed. Suddenly, he pulled her towards him by her waist, making her come closer to him. Her body was touching his chest tightly. “Everything that goes on in your life concerns me. Who you see. Who you talk to, or even smile at, concerns me. He said sternly, looking at her lips. “So don’t even try to question me. Stay away from that man, and that’s final.”
She tried to push him away, but his hands on her waist were so tight. “Let go of me!” Ellie shouted at him, but he didn’t move.
“You can’t keep doing this. We signed a contract, and it’s just for me to give birth. You don’t have any right to tell me to stay away from people.” She tried to push him, but failed.
He only smiled at her before holding her tight with one hand and holding her neck with the other; he brought his lips close to her mouth and was about to kiss her when he heard.
“What contract?!” Maya asked. He had been in the house since he left for work. She only came out when he heard his car arrive, but she stood at a corner when she saw him talking to a girl. She decided to just wait and hear their conversation.
“You! What are you doing?!” Alex asked; he was surprised to see her. He quickly let go of Ellie when he heard the voice.
“Haven’t I told you to call before coming?” He asked; he knew that she would never listen; he wanted to inform the security not to let her in without his permission, but he had forgotten.
“I’m sorry. I just wanted to see you for something.” The girl said, looking at Ellie, whose face had already become red because of embarrassment.
Ellie also looked at her before taking her eyes away. “Could that be his girlfriend? Oh, my goodness. She will make sure she tears me apart.” Ellie thought. She wanted to just go inside and hide in her room, but she couldn’t move because of the girl’s gaze.
She knew that she was the girl she saw Alex with the last time. “How can he cheat on his beautiful girlfriend with me?” She thought.
Noticing this. Alex quickly cleared his throat before saying to Ellie, “You can go.”
She was so thankful to hear that. Without looking at any of them, she moved her leg to get out of there, but stopped when the girl suddenly blocked her; she stood in front of her, staring deep into her eyes. “Who’s giving birth?” The girl asked, staring into her eyes as if to get answers.
Ellie stood there for some time, not knowing what to say, before Alex jumped into the matter and said, “Let her go, Maya.”
Instead of listening to her brother, Maya looked at him before looking back at the girl. “You know that’s not possible, brother. I’m seeing things I shouldn’t be seeing, and I need answers.” Maya said with no emotion, looking directly at Ellie’s neck, which made the girl touch her neck slightly.
Before Alex could reply, Ellie quickly said, “I’m very sorry. It was not my fault. It just happened by mistake. I have no plans of taking your boyfriend.” Ellie pleaded, hoping the girl would forgive her; she didn’t even bother looking at Alex, who was just looking and saying nothing.
Maya looked at her before busting out into laughter. “Oh my goodness.” She said, still smiling, while Alex just scoffed. “My name is Maya.” She pointed her hands towards her in a handshake.
“Ellie.” Ellie also replied, shaking her hands; she didn’t understand why the girl was acting that way, despite knowing the truth, but she felt scared and bad for her.
“Please, let’s go in.” Maya said with a smile.
