THE ALPHA KING'S HUMAN MATE

CHAPTER 2: ALL IN ONE NIGHT

OLIVIA’S P.O.V

I just put on my second heel when I heard a hoot outside. Getting up from the dressing stool, I grabbed my purse and the next thing I knew was that I was on the floor. I groaned in pain then took out my phone and called my best friend.

“Hey Dawn, can you come inside? I think I am going to be a while. Oh and come up to my bedroom, I need your help.” I said. “What’s wrong now? I told you to be ready by 6” she moaned, throwing herself on my bed, her gold sparkling dress was just long enough to cover her buttocks. “I was ready but these shoes are useless” I complained, holding the shoes in my hand. Lifting her head up to see what I was complaining about, “The shoes are useless?” she asked in a sarcastic voice. “Yes, they dropped me down and now I have to change my whole outfit” I tossed the shoes to the side and headed towards my closet. “Well, I guess that it’s better in a way that you fell here, rather than in the club, in front of everyone including Brad” she said.

Brad was my boyfriend by the way. He was a year older than I was, he was the captain of the football team and I was the head cheerleader…a movie-made couple. However, unlike in all the movies you watch where the head of the football team dates the head cheerleader, our story was different, because we were in love! Crazily in love! From the time that I saw in our senior year of high school till now when we both have already completed the first year of college, butterflies still awaken when I see him and a big wide smile still forms on my face when I think of him.

“Can you stop standing there with that silly grin on your face and pick out an outfit so that we can get going???!!!” Dawn half yelled in annoyance. “Okay, okay…don’t yell at me!” I said, turning around and going into my walk-in closet. “What do you think about this?” I asked wearing a loose black dress, which ended just above my knee. “It is Halloween? Because that looks like a bin packet” Dawn mocked me. “Shut up” I scoffed and went back into the closet. “How about this?” I came out of the closet again, wearing a brown suede dress, my hand on my hip as I strike a pose and battered my eyelashes at her. “Are you trying to compete with Pocahontas?” she laughed at me. “Really now?” I rolled my eyes at her. “Yeah, you know what, let me come in there and help you,” she said, getting off the bed. “Oh here, try this on!” she picked out a long-sleeved white cocktail dress. “Don’t you think that it is too short?” I asked, holding the dress against me in front of the mirror. “No, I don’t. After all, it is in your closet” she shrugged. “Yeah only because you bought it for me or I would have never bought a dress this short,” I said to her. “Just try it on! I know how you are with your privacy ‘issues’, so I would just wait outside” she said, removing herself from my walk-in closet. “They are not issues…I just like my privacy” I defeated my ‘issue’. “Wow, you are going have the guys looking for their jaw on the floor” Dawn complimented my look, while I was busy fidgeting with my dress, trying to make it look a bit longer. “I don’t know, I feel that it is too short. It’s not me.” I said. “It’s not that shirt for a club, in fact, it’s perfect,” she said. “Are you sure?” I asked again, still fidgeting with the length. “Yes, now let’s go!” she said. “No, wait! I have to change my long to suit my dress” I said. “You have to what???” Dawn asked in shock. “Just give me 10 minutes,” I said and rushed to my vanity.

I straightened out my curls from my long brown hair and put it up in a high pony. I added some mascara to my already long lashes to bring out my light brown eyes, highlighted my cheekbones and put on some matte red lipstick to finish off my look. Throwing on some silver heels and packing my silver purse, Dawn and I left for the club.

……

It was late, the music was loud and the club was full. “Let’s go on the top!!! We would be able to spot Brad and the rest of the group!!!” Dawn said. Nodding, I followed her on top. We stood on for a while trying to spot them when I felt someone watching me...I turned around thinking that it might be Brad when Dawn distracted me. “Liv, I think I see Rebecca and Joe…Oh, and there is Trey! They are in the VIP section” Dawn said. “Who is that guy in a white shirt that Becca is dancing with?” I asked, seeing Becca dance rubbing her body against some guy, her arms around his neck and his hands seem to be on her a**. “I don’t know, Probably some stranger that she just met. You know how wild she is…” Dawn scoffed. “Dawn, don’t say that she is our friend” I laughed. “Come…let’s go down,” Dawn said. “Wait…is that…BRAD!!!” I said in shock as Becca and the guy turned around and we could finally see his face. “Oh, my f***” Dawn said, shocked as I am.

“Wait maybe they are just friends,” Dawn said, trying to calm me down, but the next thing we saw was Brad locking his lips with Becca while his hands explored her body. “WAIT!!!LIV!!! SLOW DOWN!!!” Dawn called out while trying to keep up with me as I made my way to them.

“BRAD!!!” I yelled at him. He turned around, his expression seemed like he has seen a ghost. “Liv? Babe, you made it! I thought that you weren’t coming. You said that you will be here by 8 but never showed up…well until now” he said, trying to hold my waist. “DON’T TOUCH ME, YOU ASSHOLE! IT’S OVER!” I yelled at him, pushing him back. “Babe? Why are you calling her that? You told me that you broke up with her!” Rebecca butted in, questioning Brad. “What? What are you talking about? I never said that!” he tried to defend himself. “Yes you did!” she said. “YOU KNOW WHAT IT DOESN’T EVEN MATTER BECAUSE WE ARE OVER NOW SO YOU HAVE TO GET YOUR SLIMY LITTLE CLAWS ALL OVER HIM!” I said to her. “Why the f*** are you at me? Firstly, he told me that you two had already broken up, secondly, it’s not my fault that you want to keep your virginity for the man that you want to marry and refuse to satisfy your boyfriend!” she said. “I’m not even going to argue with a brainless b**** like you. I’m done here. I wish your’ll all the happiness, your’ll are made for each other!” I said and turned around to leave, Dawn by my side. “Wait! Liv, you can’t break up with me, we spent 3 years together!” he begged. “Yeah and I’m not wasting anymore with you!” I said, pulling my arm from his grip. “Just let her go, baby, she is not even worth it” Rebecca, held his face, trying to comfort him. “F*** off Becca” he yelled and pushed her away. “Liv, listen! I love you!” he tried to grab me again but as my anger built up I turned around and slapped him. The expression of shock reflected from his face to mine, I didn’t expect myself to do that, I couldn’t believe that I slapped him.

“Let’s get out of here, Liv” Dawn took my hand and lead me towards the exit when I felt that intense gaze on me again. Moving through the crowd, Dawn's grip loosened and we got separated. I stood there…looking around…everyone around me was dancing of interacting with one another, none of them seemed to be staring at me, but I couldn’t fight off this feeling of being watched. I looked around at the VIP section, but Brad wasn’t even there anymore then my eyes moved to the entrance of the Executive section…the entrance to the MOST elite side of the club where you could only enter if you had shares or was invited by one of the shareholders…and then I saw him!

My eyes locked with his Egyptian blue eyes and I felt drawn to him. I felt intoxicated, inebriated, desperate! I didn’t know this man, he was a complete stranger to me and I have never seen him before but I NEEDED to be with him! It felt as if my life depended on it! I needed with a man as much as my lungs needed air!

So…I took a step in his direction but my heartfelt shattered when he smirked and walked away. I watched him with a blank expression on my face as he disappeared into the Executive section, out of my sight but definitely not out of my mind.

“Liv, there you are! Come let’s go!” Dawn, distracted me and lead me out of the club.

…..

I rested my head on my pillow, it was after midnight and I tossed and turned. I couldn’t get and blink of sleep because my thoughts were still invaded by him. It felt like a part of me was missing and it’s not because I broke up with the guy that I thought that I would marry and the guy I claimed to love with every inch of my heart…No! It was about that at all! I felt hollow inside, I felt weak and broken, I felt ill and injured all because…a complete stranger seemed to not want me…but he stared at me! I need to know who he is! I haven’t seen him at the club before, it’s a great possibility that he is not even from around here, but I didn’t care, I still needed to know who he is and why I feel so much towards him!
