ELLA
Okay, I'll be honest with myself. I think there is something about that Zion guy. He has this aura that gives authority and let's not forget how gorgeous he is. He is super handsome.Funny enough he's been stealing a look at me and that gets me giddy. Does he see me as a freak or something, I wondered.I sipped my glass of wine and pretended to be oblivious of him staring. I swayed my hips to the beat of the music. I was enjoying myself. Stella was also dancing and having a conversation with a guy. They look quite acquainted and I'm glad. She's been in a bad relationship. Her previous one didn't end well, I almost lost my friend to death but she fought the battle hard and won.Stella can be unbearable at times but she is sweet and fun to be with. I can see some connection between Alex and her but the two are stubborn to even notice." Hey"I almost lose balance, that voice can't be missed. I turned around to come face to face with the intruder." Hi" I pushed my hair behind my ears. Suddenly I was shy. Why does he make me feel shy?He chuckled " I believe we've not introduced ourselves properly considering that my big head of a friend together with your friend Stella did give us a show"I chuckled agreeing with him " you are right "His beautiful eyes illuminate his face. Gosh this man is a Greek god. " or well, I'm zion " he stretched out his hand for a handshake." Ella is the name, " I said shaking his hand.He smirked " A beautiful name for a beautiful lady like you," he said while I blushed covering my red face with my hair." erm thanks, I guess"" Do you care for a dance?"This wasn't expected " Me?"He chuckled " yes of course who else "I check for my friend but she didn't even have my time so a little dance won't hurt. " sure"I took his outstretched hand and together we went to the middle of that dance floor. I could feel thousands of eyes burning behind my back. I shrugged it off. Who would decline dancing with a guy like him?He guide my hands to his shoulder while his hands went to my waist. The action made me pause for a second then finally got used to the feeling.He smirked when he saw my red face " Calm down love "Love?" I'm calmed," I said" of course you aren't. I don't bite and, this is a harmless dance. Unless if you don't want to dance again"I can't decline, I'll look like a scared cat." of course let's dance"...He smiled " Good"We moved to the beat of the music. Dancing does relax one's state of mind and most importantly when you feel comfortable and with who you are dancing with. I feel comfortable with him and I don't know why." So tell me something you've never told anyone ?" he said all of a sudden while I found the whole thing funny." Why should I, I don't know you and you don't know me," I said stupidly." That the aim of this, to finally know ourselves better" he explained.I shrugged " ok then but I ask the questions first, deal?"He chuckled " Sure why not. Ladies first"I giggled " oh please stop making fun of me "He stared deep into my eyes as if trying to read through me. I use that moment to stare at him too." you are beautiful" he blurted out.I didn't expect that to come from him " Erm thanks?"Something flash in his eyes then suddenly they changed. He smiled " Go ahead with the question"I nodded trying to think of what to ask him " How long have you known Alex?"He swirled has around " for over a decade now "" A decade?"" yes, I've known Alex for a very long time. I could equally call him my brother because he is just like a brother to me "I was in awe " So in short words, you've known each other since birth?"He nodded " you can put it that way"" That's nice "" My turn now ""Shoot"" How did you meet Stella. You don't look that aggressive to me, unlike Stella who does not take a shit. That girl is a tigress if you ask me " he shuddered at the thought.I giggled " Stella is nice"" I never said she wasn't nice." He corrected" Well, Stella is more like my guiding angel. I've known her since high school and we go a long way" I said remembering that moment with her. Stella was my superwoman.The first day I knew her was when she came to my rescue when the Bully of our school tried to bully me. I can remember, how she drove them away with a stick." Well, that's good to hear. Your turn"I thought of something " Are you single?"He smirked " is someone trying to shoot their shot on me?"I scoffed " oh please don't be full of yourself. I was only asking that's all"He shrugged " Since you don't want to admit it then it's fine. I'm not single "" Oh" I didn't expect that thoughHis mood changes immediately. But why did I feel bad though?" erm please excuse me. I need to use the restroom" I said.The moment his arms left my body, I felt incomplete " you're quite excused"Ok, something is off with him. Why does he suddenly change his mood towards me? Was it something I said? I wondered.I took off to the restroom. I banged the door behind me when I got in. The nerves of him make me feel this way. Why does his action affects me ? Why does he have to make me feel this way when he already has a girlfriend? This isn't fair at all.I sprinkled water on my face, then stared at my reflection in the mirror. My face looks different. I look like a different person with all the makeup on my face.I am Ella and no one dares to bring my spirit down. I'm promising myself right now that the moment I step foot out of the restroom I'm going to enjoy myself by myself without anyone or Zion in the picture. The aim was to go out and live for once and that's exactly what I'm going to do.ELLAI was all tipsy. I've had enough to drink tonight. I stared at the room and then my eyes met that of Zion's. For a moment I was glued to the floor not until I felt two arms around my waist which made me break eye contact.I turn to look at the intruder only to see Alex smirking at him. I pushed him away from a little but he was adamant not to let go." Calm down princess" he whispered to my ears.I rolled my eyes at him " oh please don't call me that "He chuckled " You are a princess, don't you know that?"" Hey, don't even try flirting with me" I glared at him." Are you always this feisty," he asked and finally let me go." Only to some set of people" '.." But I'm not a player, "he said to himself and he also didn't find what he said convincingly." just be far away from me "." Calm down princess"." Stop calling me that!" I huff and he chuckled" It's really easy to rile you up. That's why I want to be friends with you though"I furrowed my brow" So you can always rile me
ZionI was able to escape from Annie. She's been all over me since she saw me. It's so annoying. She's always like that around me and I made it clear to her that I don't want her. Moreover, she has a mate somewhere so why try to glue herself to me.They all want fame and I seem like their perfect target since I'm a high ranker. She won't be the first and also won't be the last. I fixed up my shirt and then made my way upstairs. Exactly where Ella went through.I began my search for her. I could see the sore look in her eyes the moment she saw Annie beside me. That just shows that she feels some kind of pull towards me and I'm glad. It's always hard to know how humans feel especially when they are our mates.I keep wondering why was I given a second chance to have a mate? Why does it have to be a human but I don't mind really? She's beautiful and does seem mysterious. There is something about her that is so skeptical.I opened the first door to my left but saw no one there, I did the s
ELLAI moaned softly enjoying my sleeping posture. I felt a hand wrapped around my waist making my eyes snap open. I was in an unfamiliar room, where was I?.I tried all my best to pry the hand off me. The event of what transpired last night came rushing back to me. I had a one-night stand for the first time in my life. I could still feel the pain in between my legs.A blush crept up my face. Last night was heavens, I've never done this with any man before. Zion was so gentle with me. I had thought he'll be rough but he proved me wrong. Gosh, what is this man doing to me ?.I was still naked from under the duvet. I sat upright gently not wishing to wake him up, Zion groan a little when he felt my absence but he didn't wake up. He looks peaceful when he sleeps. I stared at his beautiful face sadly. This will be the last time we'll meet. I need to run off before he wakes up.I got down from the bed and went to clean myself up in the bathroom. I was so fast about it just so he won't wake
Zion" Take this away!" I yelled at the maid. She took the coffee and ran off. I knew that wasn't called for but who cares? I'm the alpha and they must obey me.I tried to control my anger but found it hard to do. I was so mad, really mad and angry at her. She left without saying goodbye or something. Does what happened last night mean nothing to her? Was I just one of her puppets?The nerves she has to just flew like that. Alex knew something was off but didn't say anything. He's been staring at me for a while now.I glared at him when I caught him staring again " What?! What are you looking at ?"He raised his hands in surrender " nothing "" Fuck off man"" Look Zion I don't know what happened to you but please you need to tone down the anger in you," he said.I glared hard at him " you don't get to tell me what to do! You have no right to tell me what to do! "He scoffed " I won't sit here and hear you yell at me all day. I should leave maybe when you get yourself together you'll
Stella was persistent, she wants to know where I was last night. She has her hand on her waist ready to hear me speak and I didn't give any indication that I'd speakShe pouted " really? You won't say anything ?"I rolled my eyes " I was upstairs where else ?"She shook her head at me " but why didn't I see you. When I got upstairs, all the rooms were occupied with people having sex except you are among them "She got me right there " I don't know what you're talking about "" Don't play games with me, Ella. I know you didn't go home last night so where the hell did you spend the night? I tried calling your line but it was switched off"I shrugged " that's because I didn't want any disturbance. I was already asleep"" I don't know why I find it hard to believe" she gave me a look " you were with someone, my instinct tells me you were with someone last night," Said and came right beside me.Stella sniffed the air like a dog " you smell different "" Are you now a dog?"She glared at me
I don't have the zeal to go to work today, I feel really lazy and I feel as if I'm wasting my time working in that company. The pay isn't as good as you think. I pouted then got up from the bed.I stretched a little and dragged myself to the restroom. Immediately I got in my eyes went to the mirror on the wall. I've noticed that my face glow this past few days and it makes me wonder why and how? I haven't been using any cream on my skin so why was I experiencing this? I'm not complaining but one needs to be alarmed when you find something suspicious about yourself.I sprinkled water on my face then picked up the toothbrush and brush my teeth. I've got enough time to prepare for work. When I was done I decided to take my bath. I enjoyed every bit of that shower.I was out a few minutes later with a towel wrapped around me. I picked out a pair of trousers and a shirt. I put them on and apply a little powder to my face. I'm not a make-up type of person but I still appreciate applying a l
Surprisingly, Alex what quiet and he allowed me to do my work in peace. I glanced at him from where I was, he was on his phone texting Someone. He looks really serious and I'm very sure whoever he was texting is important.I shrugged not to dwell too much over it. Just when I taught I can have my peace a call from Stella came through. I groaned" Some boyfriend?" Alex asked from where he sat and I rolled my eyes at him." it's none of your business"He shrugged " okay".." Hey girly" I chirped in when I picked up.Stella screamed into the phone. I had to move it away from my ears because of how loud she was." Stella! What the heck"At the mention of her name, Alex raised his head. He looks interested in the conversation." I'm sorry. Just guess what?!" she screamed again.Why was she so happy? I wondered" What is it?"" it's Marcus"I furrowed my brows confused " what is it about him ?"" well, I might have thought over it and then decided to give him a chance," she said.I squeale
I'm done with this loneliness, it's time I see her and I mean now. I need to go to her place and no one can stop me. I headed up to my room to change my work clothes. I took a shower first before anything.I put on something casual and headed for the door. My beta knows what to do when I'm not around so I need not bother myself.I've long dismissed my driver who must be with his family by now. I don't need to inform anyone about my whereabouts. I'm the Alpha.I drove myself to her apartment. Don't be surprised I know where Ella lives, she didn't know I'd been stalking her whereabout. I swiveled into her street. It was dark already and most likely she must be sleeping but who cares.I parked my car far from her house and got out to make my way to her apartment. I may be alpha but right now, knocking isn't my thing so I did what was possible at the moment. I entered through her window. It was wide open as if she knew I was coming, joking.She needs to stop opening her window, she does t
