Alpha’s Tormented Seductress

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE



Alyssa was exhausted and clearly needed to rest after the long day. She whistled to get a little bit distracted from her thoughts.

Just as she approached her room, she caught sight of a familiar figure pacing around.

She was surprised and quite shocked when she realized that it was Liam.

“What are you doing here?” Alyssa asked with a wide scowl on her face, trying so hard to avoid peering into his eyes.

“I came to see you, of course…”, Liam replied and smiled, extremely glad that she decided to say a word to him on this day.

“I’ve warned you to avoid coming to see me!” Alyssa said with a cold gaze and a haughty voice.

“Well, I just figured out that I’m going insane without your presence”, Liam said with a cracked voice, staring at the woman he loves and wishing that he could grab her and dig his lips into hers.

“Then, go insane!” Alyssa replied bluntly after which she made to open her door.

Liam was stunned at her response. It was so swift and cold that for a minute, he stayed dumbfounded.

“I know you don’t mean that”, Liam said as he held her wrist and peered piercingly into her eyes.

“Look at me”, he whispered, with his breath falling directly on Alyssa’s face.

“I love you and would love you forever! I just can’t stay without you”, Liam said sincerely.

“Please, forgive me”, he pleaded, almost at the verge of tears.

Alyssa looked at him and her once stone cold eyes turned soft and warm.

“Don’t you miss me? Those nights at the lake, the moments we couldn’t do without each other…”, Liam said and Alyssa sighed deeply.

She really did miss him and wished she could pull him into a tight hug.

“No! I don’t”, Alyssa said instead and ran into her room, slamming the door at his face even before he could react.

She leaned back behind the door, ignoring Liam’s voice and pleas for her to open up. Her heart was racing and tearing apart each minute she heard him asking her for forgiveness. He truly didn’t deserve the level of emotional tantrums she threw across to him because she was as guilty as he was.

“Liam! Go away, please”, she said with a cracked voice, hoping that he would finally give up and walk away.

His heightened pleas and cries for forgiveness finally resonated into a small sniff. And after what seemed like ages, Alyssa heard his retreating footsteps.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

She rushed into her room and paced around, with her hands digging into her hair and her heart beating frantically.

She had almost succumbed to Liam’s pleas for mercy and she needed no one to tell her that she would eventually do so if she didn’t think of a plan.

“I can’t be in this plan anymore! I can’t wait in this palace”, she thought to herself as she paced around the room in worry.

Guilt engulfed her soul and she needed no one to tell her that she was only a hypocrite who had darker secrets, but disturbed Liam because of his slight mistake.

The truth still remained that she came to steal from his family, and even though she didn’t know he was the prince, her major intention was to use him in getting the information about the artifact.

Liam would hate her greatly if he comes to discover the truth, and his reaction was something Alyssa knew she wouldn’t be able to handle.

Just as Alyssa starts packing her things into a bag, tears starts dropping out of her eyes. She wished Liam and wished that she could call him and hug him passionately.

But she couldn’t…she had sent him away just some moments ago.

She felt her heart tearing apart with each minute that passed. With each seconds that ticked, she got reminded that she was on her way to leave and may not set her eyes on Liam again.

With a sorrowful eyes, she strolled towards the window and caught sight of him, some distance away. He seemed to be giving some sort of instructions, even if he wasn’t in the best of moods.

She took in a final deep sigh, and went back to continue packing her things into the light weight bag.

This was her decision and it was simple; stay out of the plan and escape to a place other than home.

There was no way she planned to return to her home where torments prevailed. She was convinced that she would be beaten until she gets to the point of death. They would conclude that she only wasted their time by going to the palace and not coming back with what they wanted.

Thoughts of that sent cold chills down her spine. The palace was a  great place for her, but she couldn’t stay anymore. With a deep frown, she resolved to leave, without an idea of where to head to.
