The Rebirth of the Betrayed Alpha

As Alexandra sits by the window reading a book to the moon for a long moment. She closes it and blows a kiss towards the moon, and shuts her window.

"Sleep tight beautiful moon" she turns off the lights and climbs on her bed, closing her eyes, darkness overpowers her mind.

The sky roars and a storm begins to pour down in the city, a heavy wind blows causing the curtains to brush against each other, although not menacingly.

Alexandra tosses, grabbing the duvet and covering herself, embracing her chilled body. A heavy arm sticks in through the window, putting his other arm, Adam jumps into her bedroom and runs his hand through his wet hair.

"Annoying weather" He shuts the window and begins to take slow yet calculated steps toward Alexandra, who was fast asleep.

"So beautiful" he tucks the strand of hair behind her ear.

Trailing his index finger on her face, Alexandra turns and he pauses for a moment. Adam lowers his face towards her, bringing his lips closer, almost attempting to kiss her when Alexandra quickly opens her eyes, and he jerks, startled.

"Adam" she whispers, sitting up bewildered to see him. "What are you doing in my room? How did you get in? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" She asks, her cold gaze burning through his eyes

Adams smiles, ashamed of getting caught.

"How did you get in here?"

"Through the window"

"Are you a thief? A killer, why on earth will you go through my window?"

"It... because it was already late and I knew you would be asleep"

"I locked my window, how did you get in?"

"You did not lock it"

"You're a liar"

"That window doesn't even have a lock remember"

"Why are you here?"

"I came to talk to you"

"In the middle of the night. Are you nuts?"

"Yes... I mean no... I wouldn't be here if it wasn't urgent"

"Urgent? What sort of urgency is it that you couldn't wait in the morning"

"Don't marry him"

Alexandra bites her lower lips trying to calm her nerves. "Get out" she whispers "What? Are you kicking me out of your room in the middle of the night?"

"Did I invite you over?"

"Alexandra please, I... is late and there's a heavy downpour in the city, the roads must all be blocked"

"Then sit on the couch over there and don't disturb my beauty sleep"

Adams laughs. "Beauty sleep" locking eyes with Alexandra, he quiets down and moves to the couch while Alexandra hides under the duvet.

"Are you cold?"

"Stop talking"

"Should I heat up-"

Alexandra shoots sharply. "Shut the hell up and let me sleep before I kick you out"

"Yes, boss... I mean Alexandra"

Ignoring him, Alexandra closes her eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.

The sun shines through the window as the warm breeze blows the curtains

causing them to brush against each other.

Tossing and turning around, Alexandra wakes up, stretching her fragile body, runs her hand through her hair, and opens her eyes, jerking up as she sees Adams gawking at her.noveldrama

"So pretty. You look cute when you're sleeping"

"What are you doing here?" She asks, forgetting he was around last night.

"You let me spend the night"

"Shouldn't you have left at the dawn of the day"

"Left to where? We haven't spoken yet"

Alexandra rolls her eyes standing up.

"If this is about last night, you better leave, I don't want to hear any of it"

"Please, please Alexandra just hear me out"

"Why should I? Do you have anything better to say? I guess not"

"Please just this once, please" He states desperately

"I'm going to freshen up and by the time I get out, I hope you will be gone" Alexandra walks into the bathroom locking the door.

She turns on the shower, letting the water pour down on her skin. Alexandra frowns hating the fact that Adam had to sneak into her bedroom, tiny goosebumps crawl up her skin sending shivers through her body.

"What the hell was he thinking?" She thinks to herself as she continues bathing hoping he would be gone by the time she walks out of the bathroom.

When she stepped back into the room, Alexandra locks eyes with Adams who was sitting on her bed, looking at her portrait.

"When was this taken?" He lifts the portrait

"Why are you still here?"

"You look beautiful in this portrait, how come I've never seen this picture"

"Adams!" Alexandra raises her voice aloud, feeling a surge of anger rush through her. "Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to leave?"

"You did"

"So why are you still here?" She clenches her jaw. "You are pushing it and -"

"Don't marry him" he stands up "I heard you two will soon be getting married but Alexandra please don't marry him"

Alexandra laughs. "Aren't you something Adam Hawthorn? First, you question if he's truly my mate and now you come here requesting that I don't marry him. Why? Who are you to tell me what I should or shouldn't do?

"You are nothing to me, we are not mates and certainly not my family and even if you were, why must I listen to you?"

"Yes I'm nothing to you and maybe my approach and choice of words may not seem right. However, I would still plead with you not to marry him" He falls to his knees

Alexandra scoffs, feeling uncomfortable and disgusted by Adam's sudden act of humility.

"Please, Alexandra Guerrero, do not marry that man" he pleads, gazing into her eyes and she gazes back, a sly smile creeping up her face.

Alexandra lowers down to his height with her eyes still locking into his desperate eyes.
