Sold To The Scarred Alpha

Chapter 50



MALIYA

I woke up feeling a little indifferent. Alpha Xandler is not in the room as usual and I am bothered about it, I knew he was probably in his study room or attending to other things. He can do whatever he wants though, not that I minded.

His absence brings me comfort more than it should and it’s something I’d always appreciate.

Just then, a maid came in with a tray of food and I ate by myself For some reason, Alpha Xander hasn’t invited me over to eat with him since the last time. I bet it was going to be that one–time thing and I couldn’t be happier.

Eating with him was so uncomfortable. I had to be so conscious so that I didn’t annoy him, but I guess I eventually did, seeing how he left the dining without touching his food.

“Do you need something else?” the maid asked as she waited for ne to tell her if I needed anything else.

“This is okay, thank you,” I smiled and she nodded. I finished eating and went to stand on the balcony. I think this place might be my new favourite place after the garden. The view is so beautiful and it makes me feel so much at ease. I can see almost everything going on outside by just standing here and that is the best part of it all.

My gaze fell on Alpha Xander as he spoke to Lord Williams. I didn’t miss how humble Lord Williams appears to be in front of Alpha Xander. For a man as huge and powerful as he was, he sure does have a lot of respect for Alpha Xander or is it fear?

He shifted his weight occasionally from one leg to another. I noticed that Alpha Xander was the one doing all the talking. while he listened but something was evident.

He only acts on the order given to him,

I wondered if everyone around him obeys him out of loyalty or put of fear. It was glaring that none of them would defy his orders. He wouldn’t come this far if he was surrounded by dishonest subjects, I can’t stop the thought that came to my head.

Despite everything that they have seen and witnessed. Are they with him because they find him worthy of their Alpha? Is it out of loyalty? Or could it simply be because they had no choice and they did not want to risk their lives?

Judging from how he is always with Alpha Xander, running errands for him, I wondered if he’s Alpha Xander’s most trusted

man.

Why do you care? A voice asked in my head. The truth is I don’t care about what the answer is, I just want to know out of curiosity.

“Maliya, Claudia’s voice snapped me out of my truce and I turned back to look at her.

“You are here,” I said with a small smile as she joined me on the balcony.

I’m not sure if this is a good thing or if Alpha Xander would like it, but I can’t tell her to leave, plus, he’s not even here.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes.. you have been complaining of boredom for a while, so I came to keep you company since I’m less busy,” she smiled

you. I gave her a thankful smile.

“Aw, that is so sweel of yo

The breeze soon got chilly and I took it as my cue to head back into the room or Alpha Adonis would get see me standing here in the cold.

Let’s go back inside, the Alpha won’t like it if I stay here for too long, I announced.

Claudia followed me back into the room and I couldn’t help but get curious about Prince Kane again.

“Did you find out anything? What was the Alpha’s response? Is he going to help Prince Kane?” I asked,

I haven’t heard anything since then. Maybe Alpha Kabder thinks he is not worth thould have heard rumours if

he decided to help him, but there is nothing.”

stress? I

A part of me hoped that Alpha Xander really wouldn’t offer to help him, but I didn’t know and I guess it doesn’t matter either anymore.

“What is going on in your head?” Claudia asked and I sighed.

“I feel the urge to get out of here… I don’t know, maybe bathe in the river or just be surrounded by nature. I don’t have plans of running away before you ask,” I said, clearing the air before she started getting ideas.

“I never said so she chuckled.

“I know, just saying.”

The mention of the river suddenly makes me want to bathe in one real bed. I can still recall bathing once in the river. It was my first and last time and it was pretty amazing.

I went with the closest person I could call a friend. She actually dragged me there because she didn’t want to go alone in case she got caught. I was scared at first, but the moment we got to the river, I forgot all my worries and got lost in the moment.

“Come on, inside,” she said as she jumped in and I was tempted to do it, so I did.

I can still remember the way the water felt against my skin. It was everything. It made me feel at ease. I felt exposed, yet so peaceful. There was nothing compared to that feeling and I want to feel it again.

“Is there any river around us?” Thinking about it makes me want to try it so badly, and I doubt that I’d be satisfied unless 1 really bathed in water

No amount of bathing in the tub or under the shower can ever replace the river’s feeling and I won’t miss it for anything.

I don’t know if Alpha Xander would allow me to go though. I know how protective he was of his baby growing inside me. there is no harm in trying, right?

“Yes, there is a river nearby, but the Alpha is the only one that is allowed to go there,” she said, ruining my immediately.

mood

I knew Alpha Xander was a private person and he would never grant me access to the place not to talk of how overprotective he is about my pregnancy.

1 wanted to go so bad and I was starting to get my hopes high that I could not help but feel disappointed.

“What is with the sad face? I thought you were eager to go?” Claudia asked and I sighed.

“Yes, but like you said, no one is allowed to go which means I can’t visit the place either,” I groaned. It’s times like this that i wished Alpha Xander wasn’t such an asshole and I can really approach him and ask him for favours.

“Oh, you can go. The Alpha wouldn’t mind. After all, he has been allowing you to do a lot of things lately, I guess he won’t mind if he learns about it later. Claudia smiled.

“Are you sure about that? I don’t want to get into any trouble later, I asked, unsure.

“Of course, I won’t lie to you,” Claudia said and I smiled.

“Great! Let me change into something comfortable so that I can leave,” I grinned. “Are you sure Alpha Xander wouldn’t mind though?” I asked again, and she nodded.

I jumped up, feeling super–excited about what I was about to do as Claudia led the way.

The guards followed after me immediately and I stopped in my tracks.

“You don’t have to follow me. I don’t have plans of running away I just want to go and bathe,” I said and they looked at each other.

“She is only visiting the river, Claudia added. “It’s just outside the mansion. You have nothing to be worried about. It is safe and well guarded too.”

The guards nodded before taking a step back and I released a breath. Finally, Freedom!

Claudia took me to the place so that I didn’t get lost and made sure to tell me how to get back to the mansion even though we were practically still in the mansion.

“I’d have stayed with you but I know how much you wanted to be alone, plus I’m not really allowed here,” she smiled.

“Thanks for bringing me here.” I smiled back at her before she turned to leave.

I waited until Claudia was out of sight before I began to take off my clothes until I was completely naked. The chilly breeze hit my skin, making me shiver slightly and I danced out of excitement.

This is the closest thing I’d ever get to freedom.

I walked into the river slowly until half of my body was covered with water before I began to swim.

Hoved the feeling so much. My skin tingles from the water’s wave, and I cannot help the smile that spreads on my face.

I believe bathing in the river brings me good luck because the last time I did, I found my mate the next day even though he later turned out to be an asshole.

Bathing in the river brings me so much comfort. It’s a feeling I can not trade for anything in the world.

I decided to put the past and my worries aside as I continued to dance in the water. The sound of the wave was enough to use as a beat that alone was enough to excite me.

Why didn’t I think about coming here earlier?

It felt as if someone was watching me and the thought alone was enough to make me scream out of fear even though I knew no one would hear me, but for some reason, I wasn’t bothered.

The strong scent coming out of the person made me know who it was, even without turning back. It was Alpha Xander.

My heart skipped a beat at the thought of him staring at my naked body, and a part of me suddenly wanted to hide, but 1 didn’t.

Maybe it was because I was enjoying the water a little too much to allow someone to ruin the fun for me, or maybe it was because I knew it wasn’t the first time he would see me naked, I don’t know and I don’t care.

I turned around slowly and my eyes met with Alpha Xander’s gaze. He was staring at me shamelessly and didn’t bother to hide it.

My eyes fell on his chest and I noticed how he was naked too. I thought his face was the only thing that was perfect about him, but I took back my words. His body was like an artwork. Toned and firmed. His chest rose and fell in a rhythm and 1 couldn’t stop myself from staring at him.

How can a man be so perfect?

Neither of us tried to break the silence, but I didn’t miss the way his eyes darkened as they fell on my boobs. I licked my lips unconsciously, and his gaze pet with mine again.

His eyes flashed with different emotions, all of which I could not comprehend, as my heart raced with anticipation.

What I was expecting. I didn’t know, but I couldn’t break away from his gaze.

Just then. Alpha Xander broke the silence and his voice came out so smooth, angelic, yet so soft. It was like a melody to my ear, one that I wanted to play on a repeat.

“What the fuck are you doing to me, Maliya?”
