Alpha’s Virgin Stripper

Today was the day he would meet her again. Only, she would not be able to know that he was ever there. She would not be able to know that he was there, right by her side, while she suffered immense pain, just like she had caused him. Alpha Cole stepped out of his office and slipped his phone into his front pocket. Neil was in front of his door waiting for him. Lake was in the office today and he didn’t need his son finding out what he was up to.

He allowed Neil to move before him, the two men did not speak to each other until they were in the parking lot, and Neil opened the back seat of the Range Rover for him to enter. Cole climbed into the car and Neil got into the driver’s seat.

The engine roared to life immediately after Neil turned the keys in the ignition. Cole knew it was going to be a long drive, especially for him. He wondered what he would spend the time talking about with this chatterbox of a man.

He could bet that Neil already had a lot of things hanging at the tip of his tongue, waiting to be spilled. He could only hope, for the man’s sake, that his words did not put him in trouble one day. Still, boredom was eating at his old mind. He needed the man to fill him in on his son’s recent activities. “Say. I was surprised to hear Lake was at the office today. He barely ever shows up there.

I wonder what dragged him from his precious casino and suite.” Alpha Cole started. It was always the best way to get his son’s assistant involved in a discussion; indirect chattering. Just as he suspected, the man shook his head in agreement. Neil’s grip tightened on the steering wheel as he risked a sharp turn to look at Alpha Cole.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“You are indeed very right sir. I was asking myself the same thing. Perhaps, it has something to do with the party coming up. The fact that he did not even want to go in the first place.

You know that the alpha is a very reserved person. He ignored the invitation for so long, but suddenly decided to go with that girl. I am sure that his reason for going has something to do with her, I’m very sure.”

Alpha Cole had only let him rattle on because he needed to hear someone speak, to silence his thoughts. However, his ears stood alert and his interest peaked at an insane level once he heard Neil utter the word “girl.” Alpha Cole sat up slowly in his seat. His ironed black tux relaxed against his muscled chest. Even at almost seventy years of age, he took pride in being a fit and handsome man.

“What girl do you speak about?” He asked again. From the rearview mirror, Alpha Cole could see the man’s eyes light up. He was probably very delighted to be speaking to the father of the alpha of his pack.

Who would not be? “The stripper, sir. I mean, to be honest, things have been getting a little bit heated between those two.” Neil continued. Alpha Cole narrowed his eyes at the image of the man in the rearview mirror. That stripper girl again? Was Lake just trying to rebel against the crown? Or was this his method of coping with harsh realities?

“Things with this stripper girl are getting pretty serious. But, I trust my son, I know Lake knows what he is doing. He would never be with a woman without interest in what she can do for him, for our crown. I have full faith in him.” Alpha Cole replied, even though he did not believe half the words that had come out of his mouth. He could allow Lake to fool around with whoever he intended to fool around with. But, if she was not worth the money Lake had spent on her, if she could not give their throne an heir, then he would have to quietly and subtly get rid of her. “I believe so too, alpha.

Alpha Lake values the pack, and would never do anything to…” Alpha Cole’s attention drifted from Neil’s honorary speech of his son. He had heard that one too many times to be interested in what? The three-hundredth time?

He stuck his eyes outside the window, just to appreciate the beauty of the pack. The car slowly approached a restaurant in front of the traffic light. Cole had not wanted to, but his gaze remained fixed on the door of the restaurant. A woman, lean and tall, stood in front of the glass door.

He saw her hand some money over to the uniformed man at the doorpost. But, when she raised her head to flash the security man a warm smile, alpha Cole’s heart did a quick summersault in his chest. He turned back to take a close look at her, but their car had already gone far past her. He was tempted to instruct Neil to turn back, just to make sure he was not hallucinating.

Had old age begun to creep in already? That could not be Uriel! Uriel could not be here, not after their agreement. His heartbeat refused to steady. He clutched the collar of his shirt and adjusted it so he could breathe.

“Are you alright, Alpha?” Neil asked from the front seat, his tone laced with concern. Cole waved him a hand of dismissal, urging the man to keep his eyes on the road. He turned one last time to look at the restaurant, even though it was already out of sight. He had to be imagining things, he just had to. Uriel had promised that she would never come anywhere close to Lake, that had been the only condition for her freedom.

He had let her go to be with the man she wanted to be with, so why was she here? Those sunny blonde locks of hair, bright blue eyes, and equally bright smiles. Could he have mistaken all of those things? Yes. Yes he did. “We’re here sir,” Neil stated, seizing his attention from the thought of his ex-wife, Lake’s mother. Cole sat up straight. First Uriel, and now he was going to see her.

Was he overestimating the power of his brain? Neil led him through hospital corridors until he got to the door of a ward. When Neil opened the door and ushered him to step in, Cole did so immediately.

His nostrils were greeted by the harsh smell of disinfectant and bleach. He looked around the room, fairly admiring his son’s act of philanthropy. In the exquisite hospital room, she looked like a sick queen. Which she could have been if she had not decided to be stubborn and…

He paused his thoughts there. There was no need to flog a dead horse. Although, he could not help but wonder what, or who had done this to her. Where was the man she had abandoned him for? Alpha Cole scoffed bitterly. The answer was simple; it was right there in the room.

Nowhere to be found.
