Chapter 40: Alesea

Alex stood motionless and stared at her with eyes that held so many different emotions. He swallowed hard and shut his eyes to resist the urge to stare anymore. 'Such a temptation.' He instantly shook his head the moment he had the thought and opened his eyes. He cleared his throat and raised his gray eyes to gaze at her face. "Why aren't you wearing proper clothes again? And why is your upper body bare? " He asked, with annoyance apparent in his tone.

The lady, who was named Alesea, fluttered her eyes in confusion and glanced at her body. She creased her brow and raised her blue eyes to stare at him. "Well, we don't have clothes under the sea, so..."

"Nevermind." Alex let out a deep breath and gazed at her. "What do you want?" 

Alesea frowned her face when she heard that question, and she folded her hands in displeasure. "Alex, aren't you even happy to see me?" She raised her blue eyes to gaze at him. "We haven't seen each other in a year now." She blinked her long lashes and walked closer to him.

Alex's face grew dark, and he stepped back away from her. He pinched between his brows, and a deep breath escaped his nose. "Please, I am not happy to see you. Nor will I care, even if I don't see you in a hundred years." He shook his head and gazed at her with no emotion on his face.

"Why Alex?" Alesea's hand tightened as her heart ached within her. Tiny bubbles of tears welled up in her eyes, and she stepped closer to him. "What have I done wrong to you?"

She walked around him and tightly hugged him from the back, pressing her bare upper body against his. "Why are you rejecting me? Am I not pretty?" She asked with a cracked voice, showing she was about to tear up.

Alex's face darkened, and he pushed her away from him. He grabbed her by the wrist and made her look at him. "Please know that I am not rejecting you for any of those reasons. So know this and know it now: you are the most beautiful woman I have ever met in my life, so stop thinking like a kid." He let go of her wrist and turned his back on her. "I have rejected you as my mate, and that means that I don't want to have anything to do with you, so please leave my life alone." 

"But I love you, Alex. I lov-"

"Stop it!!!" Alex yelled, causing her to flinch back in shock. "Don't you get it? I will never be with you because it will never work between us."

"Why won't it work between us? The moon goddess brought us together as mates. Why won't you accept it?" Alesea gazed into his eyes, and tiny drops of tears fell from her eyes.

"Because I have a grudge against you sea people." Alex stared into her eyes, and he let out an annoyed groan. He turned around to grab his clothing from the tree, but Alesea abruptly appeared in front of him, and before he could anticipate what she was about to do, she covered her lips with his, leaving Alex in a dumbfounded state.

What was happening? Alex gazed into her eyes with dilated eyes, and he immediately proceeded to break the kiss, but Alesea, however, wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. 

Alex's mind instantly went into chaos and his lashes fluttered uncontrollably. He had kissed women before, but what he felt with them was different from what he was feeling right now. He felt like everything within him was bubbling and that he could melt within her kiss. He was losing his mind. He couldn't think straight anymore.

His wolf, which was calm all along, erupted in desire, and Alex grabbed her by the waist and pressed her against the tree. He fiercely grabbed her hair and deepened the kiss, taking control of the situation.

Alesea moaned as she fell deeply into him and tangled her hands in his hair. She parted her lips when she felt him asking for entrance, and their tongues danced in rhythm with each other.

Alex's grip on her hair tightened, and he kissed her deeply. What was he doing? He wasn't supposed to be kissing her; he was supposed to push her away, not kiss her! His eyes abruptly dilated as he realized what he was doing, and he broke the kiss, then hurriedly stepped away from her. He turned around with his back facing her and his grip on his shirt tightened. "You got what you wanted." Without sparing one last glance at her, Alex fled, disappearing into the dark woods. 

Alesea stared in the direction he left, and drops of hurtful tears fell from her eyes as his name left her lips. "Alex." It came out more like a painful whisper.

Alex arrived back at the mansion, and the minute he stepped inside, his eyes fell on Adrik, who sat on the couch with his legs crossed over one another and a cup of coffee in his hand. His hair was, as usual, neatly wrapped up in a bun with only a few strands falling over his face.

Alex stood motionless and stared at him for a while. He blinked his eyes, and his face grimaced in confusion.

Adrik raised his green eyes and glanced at him immediately, noticing him. His brow arched and he stared at him with a questioning look on his face. "What happened to you?"

Alex gave him a respectful bow and took his seat on the sofa opposite him. He folded his hands and his face puckered in irritation. "I saw someone I wish I could have avoided."

"Hmm." Adrik chuckled softly and sipped his tea. "You met your lovely mate, no?" He raised his brow and gazed at him.

"Mate my foot! I have rejected her and made it clear to her that I don't want to be with her, but still, she won't leave me alone. " Alex clenched his fist and let out an annoyed groan. "She won't stop until the day I strangle her to death in anger." 

Adrik slightly shook his head and sipped on his coffee. "Let me ask you, why do you always look like a ghost whenever you see her?" 

"Because she makes me sick!" Alex pinched between his brows and took a deep breath. 

Adrik laughed softly and stood up from the couch. He dropped the cup of coffee on the mini table and glanced at Alex with a smirk on his lips. "She's a very alluring woman." He cleared his throat and walked away, leaving Alex with his jaw dropped in bewilderment.

A smile couldn't help but spread across Alex's lips as he gazed at his Alpha's disappearing back. His Alpha had always been like a big brother to him since he was a young boy. Even though his Alpha acts cold and scares him sometimes, there was a time like this, when the status is thrown behind and brotherhood takes over. 

Then, Alex took a deep breath and stood up from the couch. He walked to the elevator and rode up to his room on the 2nd floor.
