Alpha’s Tormented Seductress

“Do you still love me?” The words kept on ringing in Alyssa’s head and the more she thought about it, the more she felt nervous.

She knew what she wanted to say, but she wasn’t sure if it was going to be what Liam really wanted to hear.

Liam was looking at her straight in her eyes, while waiting for an answer. He had already seen the answer on her face, but he still wanted her to say it with her mouth. He could be wrong.

He doesn’t even know where the question came from, all he knows is that he’s very interested in hearing her answer.

Alyssa looked away from him and her gaze fell on Ella and Timothy. She wondered why Ella was trying so hard to make her jealous, when she obviously wasn’t.

Okay, maybe she was.

Just a little.

The fact that her son wasn’t even with her, was enough to hurt her and make her so jealous.

Liam snapped his hands in front of her, and she realized that she hadn’t answered his question.

“Yes?” She asked with wide eyes, trying to act like she doesn’t know what he is talking about.

“I asked a question.” Liam said, and he crossed his hands against his chest. He raised an eyebrow, and she tried looking away from him to avoid his question, but he was really persistent with it.

Alyssa was stalling, because she felt like telling Liam that she actually loved him, might just change the way things were between them.

The both of them were already getting along, and hating each other less. So, telling him might change that, and Alyssa didn’t want that.

She looked into his eyes, to try and read what he was thinking about. She kept on doing that, but it wasn’t working, at least not for her.

Liam was becoming impatient. He frowned, and a loud hiss escaped his mouth. Alyssa knew that her silence was annoying him, but she just couldn’t help it.

Alyssa looked at him one more time, before she turned around, and ran away from him. The way his eyes were piercing her eyes, like they could see everything that she was thinking about, was a bit too overwhelming for her.

She didn’t know how to tell the man that she was madly in love with, that she still loved him like crazy even with the way he treated her.

Saying that she’s never fallen out of love for him, would just be too much for her, because she didn’t even know if he felt the same way about her at all.

Alyssa kept on walking really fast towards her room, and even though she could hear Liam’s footsteps behind her, she still didn’t want to stop.

She believed that day wasn’t the day for her to profess her love to him, at least not when she wasn’t sure about the relationship between them.

Alyssa was about to get to her room, when she suddenly felt someone’s strong hand on her shoulder.

She didn’t need a magician to know who the person was, she already knew that Liam was going to call her back.

“Tell me now. Are. You. Still. In. Love. With. Me?” He said, while stressing each word, so it would sink into Alyssa’s head.

“I don’t know, I already told you that.” Alyssa said, and she tried removing his hand from her arm, but it wasn’t working.

Liam glared at her with so many emotions in his eyes. Alyssa could tell three of the emotions that she could see and feel in his eyes, but love wasn’t part of the emotions.

She was in love with him, but she feels like with the way things were between them, they would never end up together.

“You do know. Spill it.” Liam said, moving her closer to him. He looked into her eyes, and brushed away the strands of her that were sticking out.

Anyone that saw them at that moment, would have thought that they were a couple in their honeymoon phase.

“I-” Alyssa started saying, but Liam placed his index fingers on her lips to stop her from saying any other thing.

“Please.” He pleaded, and he bent his head downwards, and Alyssa just felt like he was going to kiss her. So, she pushed herself from his embrace, and she stood at least two feet away from him.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Okay, Liam.” She said, and wanted to gauge his reaction. For some weird reason, he actually looked anxious to hear her reply, and Alyssa couldn’t just deny that that made her feel… good and… wanted?, she wasn’t sure.

“I am still in love with you.” Alyssa said, and she looked away immediately. She wasn’t seeing his face, but she could guess the look on his face.

“I don’t know if it’s possible, but I wouldn’t mind if we could… get back together. I don’t know.” She said, and she shrugged casually, knowing that he didn’t care about that anyway.

She didn’t know if she should just leave immediately, or wait for him to send her in.

After a few seconds of silence, she settled for the former, and turned around to go to her room.

He didn’t follow her.

She couldn’t deny that she actually wanted her to go after her, so they would spend more time together, but at the same time, she wasn’t surprised that he didn’t.

Liam was a bit shocked that Alyssa still loved him even after… everything. That’s something that he wasn’t expecting, he had expected her to say no, so he would get over it.

Alyssa is still in love with me? Wow. He thought, and he scratched his head in frustration.

Liam kept on pacing around, not knowing how to react to what she said.

Hell, he didn’t even know if he was in love with her either.

Was he? He wasn’t sure.

Alyssa went back to her room, and the moment she closed the door behind her, she jumped on the bed, and buried her face into the pillows.

She couldn’t just believe that she finally said that to Liam, after thinking she wouldn’t ever know that she was still in love with him.

She was low-key happy about it though, because nature MIGHT just consider that, and being the both of them together again.

It would be so nice for the both of us, and Timothy, to end up as a family. Oh God. Alyssa thought, and she started daydreaming about the three of them as a one, nice family.

Alyssa’s daydreaming was interrupted, when a guard told her that Ella needed her attention with Timothy. Since it was about her son, she hurried out of the room, and she went to the main palace.

She was sent to watch Ella bathe Tim, and while Ella was doing that, Timothy kept on looking at her.

Alyssa could see that the boy wanted to go to her, but that was impossible because of Ella.

She felt hope that her son had not completely left her, because of that, and she just wished that she could spend more time with the boy.

Ella on noticing that, was angry and sent Alyssa away, because her plan to make Alyssa miserable had backfired.
