Alpha’s Virgin Stripper

Lake:

You have got to be fucking kidding me.

That was the first thing I said when I lifted my gaze from Jojo’s beautiful face and found him standing in front of us, IN MY FUCKING HOUSE.

Now, call me what you wish, but I had just managed to go through one hurdle that had kept Jojo, Lucian, and I apart. I swore in my heart that I’ll die before I allow anyone stand between us again, not even ourselves.

I arched my left brow and glared at him until he got uncomfortable enough to leave. I just hoped I had come early enough to stop him from doing any serious damages.

From the second I set my eyes on him in the hospital, I knew that I had he wary of those his snake eyes. I mean, who the hell had eyes as white as his?

“What? What did I do?” I asked, when Jojo frowned at me with her arms locked underneath her breasts.

“You practically chased him away!” She cried out. I scoffed and turned to look at the door. I had to ensure he wasn’t lurking around, waiting for me to leave.

“Chase him? Jojo, I didn’t even say anything to him.” I replied.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“But you were looking at him!”

I tilted my neck to look at her. She rolled her eyes and shook her head.

“I wasn’t supposed to look at him?”

“You know what I’m talking about.” She fired back. I took one step forward, trying to close the distance between us.

“Do I?”

She glared at me, then took one step backwards. For every one step she took backwards, I took two steps forward. Soon, she was pressed to the wall with nowhere to run.

“It’s your eyes. They chased him.” Jojo retorted. She did not look at me as she spoke.

Lucian was the only reason I had not pinned her to the wall and kissed her silly. This woman… she was driving me crazy. She always did. And I did not understand why it took me so long to admit it to myself.

“Do my eyes chase you too?” I allowed my lips thin into a smirk as I stared down at her. I had expected a million and one reactions, but none of them involved her pushing me away and walking behind me. I wanted to brush it off, I wanted to tell myself she was just being Jojo, and she wanted me to chase her a little bit more, but when I turned to look at her, the narrative disappeared from my mind.

Jojo wasn’t playing around. She had something to say and it was something very serious.

“What are you really doing, alpha Lake?” She started to speak. The intensity of her gaze caused mine to soften. She had only looked at me in this manner once – on the day she said she didn’t want or need me in her life, just Lucian’s.

“I mean, I am really grateful for your presence and support so far, but what do you really want? I don’t want to play games, Alpha Lake. I don’t want to be your sneaky Link or anything, so if that’s what you’re after…”

“I want us, Jojo.” I blurted out.

She narrowed her eyes on me. Doubt and disbelief flashed through her green orbs all at once.

Shit. I had already started to pour my heart out, so there was no going back. I just wish I had done it when I really wanted to, and when my speech was well prepared. But now, I was going to have to speak from my heart… and I wasn’t good at that.

“Yes, Jojo. This is beyond Lucian, it is about you and I.” I took a step forward as I stared into her emerald green eyes. She did not look away this time.

“I need you by my side, Jojo. I need you, Lucian, Valerie… I need the whole family in my life. In all my years, the happiest days of my life have been all the days I spent with you. And I want that to continue, Jojo. I want to win your heart, just like you have won mine. I… I want you to stay back. Please, don’t leave again.”

She shook her head and parted her lips to speak, but I had to cut in before she spoke.

“You do not have to agree now, Jojo. Please just… just stay for a while. Take sometime to think about it.” I stretched Lucian out to her and she took our baby boy into her arms.

She needed some time alone, I could see it.

She looked up at me and sighed.

“I don’t know how long it’ll take for me to change my mind. I don’t even know if I will.” Her tone was definite, so I knew that she meant every word she had said.

“I know and I understand, Jojo. Believe me, I’ll work for it. I’ll earn your trust and your love. All I need is a chance, another chance.” I pleaded. She took her eyes off me and fixed them on Lucian’s face.

“If you say so.” She breathed out. And I could swear I felt my heart do a summersault in my chest. I couldn’t help the bright smile that formed on my face as I looked at her.

I didn’t know what to say that wouldn’t make me look and sound like a fool, so I just placed a soft kiss on her forehead.

“I’ll be on my way. I need to head to the office and see to some things there.”

She spared me nothing more than a short glance and a dry “be safe,” but I knew it was only for a while. I was going to prove to Jojo that she could trust me. And I was going to work hard for her love, it didn’t matter what I had to do.

I bid my baby farewell and stepped out of the office. It only took fifteen minutes for me to drive back to the office with the speed I drove with.

I got to my floor of the office and found Bec standing in front of my door. Beside him was one of my dancers whose name I couldn’t quite remember, but I knew I had seen her a couple of times.

I narrowed my eyes on the both of them as I got closer. They both bowed in courtesy when I stood in front of my office. I placed my fingerprint on the door and it opened immediately – it was the new security lock I had installed.

They stepped into the office behind me and I settled into my chair before I looked up at them. I didn’t need anyone to tell me they didn’t come bearing goodnews.

I fixed my gaze on Bec before I started to speak.

“If any of you have something to say, please go ahead and say it.”

I saw them exchange uncertain glances, before the girl in a pair of ripped jeans and a black hoodie spoke.

“My name is Brandy… Brandy Wyatt.”

Brandy Wyatt. I narrowed my keen eyes on her tall frame. I knew that name, I could swear I had heard it be…

Fuck.

My eyes widened as I leaned out of the table.

“Brandy Wyatt?”

She looked down at the ground and as she nodded.

“You look at me when I’m speaking to you, warrior!” I screamed and banged my fist on the table. I could not tell where the anger had risen from, but I had a feeling it stemmed from the fact that I now knew why she was here.

One of my warriors was a daughter of his, and she had been the mole in my army. It suddenly made sense how we were almost never able to catch him.

I fell back into my seat as I glared at her.

“My mother got married to Jesse Wyatt a few years back. I already had two brothers. He was a very cruel man. I was asked to come here as a spy, of he’ll kill them. And if I ever mentioned a word to anyone, he’ll kill them too. I did what I did for them, all for them. I just wanted to be safe. I would take whatever punishment you give to me today in good faith. All I want to be promised is that my brothers would be kept safe and away from your wrath.” Her voice had already began to shake.

The penalty for treason was death, but if Bec was here, it means he knew before now. And if he knew before now, it could only mean she had done something in exchange for her request.

I heaved a sigh even though I could feel my stomach burn with anger. The mention of the man’s name always caused my stomach to turn. Even now, I wanted to wrap my hands around his neck and make him apologize for using Brandy’s brothers as bait.

Jesse Wyatt was irredeemable.

“If I must do as you say, then you must know that from this minute, you would seize to be a member of Rush pack. You are never to be found on any of our lands and the penalty for doing so would be death on sight.” I spoke through gritted teeth, my dark eyes glanced over her.

She bowed her head and looked down at the ground.

“Yes, alpha. I am very well aware.”
