The Alpha's Temptation 09.
Falling back to sleep could be the worse thing she could ever plan to do. Especially after getting a call from her sister.She pictured her sister dressed in a white fitted fishtail wedding gown, adorned with expensive white lace and silver pearls adorned by the hems. Just like the one she had always bragged about, standing beside her ex-husband.An imaginative picture of the smile on their faces before the elder who would officiate them could not devastate her more than the reality of seeing her only sister having sex with her once loving husband.She stared at the ceiling and then back at the floor. There was no drop of tears during her movements. She surely wasn’t going to cry. Not after crying for days after witnessing the betrayal.Tessa jumped off her bed, a glance at the forest outside her room spread a sense of peace down her spine. The one thing that seemed to keep her happy even after witnessing the annoying wolf that refused to end her pain.Her tummy was growling. She hadn

‘’Oh my gosh! Tessa you look so beautiful,’’ Sophie said after pulling Tessa into a hug and was now staring at her with amazement.Tessa on the other hand, could not believe her eyes. She was definitely shocked, unexpectedly meeting a friend but she wondered how Sophie could recognize or even remember her. Especially when she was putting on a hoodie. After all, they weren't exactly close friends back in school.‘’Sophie!’’ Tessa finally replied with the same amount of surprise filled enthusiasm.Sophie had a round face with full lips which was carefully colored with her red lipstick. Her eyelashes has always been long, but at that moment they seemed longer and darker, giving her the pretty gothic girl look with her red knee length gown.‘’Tessa, I am so happy to see you. I just spotted you down the hall. I kept wondering if you were the one, but after a much closer look. I could not control myself from calling out your name," Sophie said all through, with a smile on her face.Tessa wa

Tessa got dressed in a gray hoodie and stepped out of her home for a stroll. She had been indoors earlier eating some of the junk food purchased for her by Sophie. She didn't do much and didn't even dare to take a sip of the wine. She had contacted a few well-known nutritionists online the other day so she could be well informed about the pregnancy. And the dos and don'ts.She hadn't been outside her home since the day before and needed to get fresh air. She also wanted to exercise a little so her muscles would not become stiff.As expected, her neighborhood was quiet. The leaves on the trees aligned by the side of the road blew lightly from time to time, adding to its serene atmosphere. ‘’Hey pretty,’’ a guy dressed in a pair of royal-blue shorts jogged past her. He paused in front of her, with a smile on his face.He had Italian brown hair that brushed against his forehead as a result of the slight wind that blew. And coupled with that, he had quite an attractive face too.‘’Good

The breeze blew by and the numerous papers that were scattered on his desk began to fly to the floor but he paid them no heed.

He peeped into his office and was shocked at his disorganized his desk was.He never left his desk untidy before every weekend.

There was nothing, but his shelf also with scattered books.Bryce walked stealthily towards the shelf while roaming his eyes around his office.

‘’So tell me, how did you feel when you met a high school friend after a long time.’’ Bryce rested his arm on the desk and palmed his face, taking a relaxing position and ready to listen to his talkative younger sister.‘’You should know her. You were in senior year when she joined the school.’’ Sophie asked, squinting her eyes in the process.‘’You know that I was a reserved boy back in school. I barely even knew you.’’ He laughed. And, it was meant to be a joke.A knock was heard on Bryce's door, just before Sophie was about to make her next statement.‘’Come in,’’ Bryce ordered, still looking at his sister expecting her to speak.‘’Mr. Bryce, a letter just came in from the ministry of transport. It has to do with the business proposal you shared earlier this month with the minister."’ Said the lady who should be in her early 30s and dressed in a corporate black gown with her pixie-styled hair. She walked briskly and dropped the file on the office desk just a few feet away from wher

Bryce's phone which was lying on the couch beside him, let out a beeping sound at that moment, disrupting their discussion.He picked it up and checked what it was. It was a text message. His gaze skimmed over it swiftly and as he did so, there was a change in his expression. But, it was soon masked by his usual indifference and calmness.‘’I’ll read this after we are done.’’ Bryce put off his phone and dropped it on his desk. Then, he clasped his palms on the table.‘’I don’t get to see my loving sister every day, you know.’’ He added, causing her to giggle.‘’I’ll be coming more frequently from today."Bryce immediately raised a brow. "Nevermind. Don't. If you come here frequently, it means you have a hidden motive."Sophie immediately leaked a laugh and she shook her head. "Always be sincere, brother."‘’When you met Tessa at the shopping mall, how did you feel? Did you feel happy or sad since you said she knowingly or unknowingly did things to you?" Bryce asked, as he leaned onto
