Chapter 4
"There is a lot to talk about the Alpha, yet nothing to say all the same. He is a closed book, fierce on the outside, and also on the inside. A look at him and you could tell he means business. He is the owner of this club, and I'll advise you to play your cards well, who knows? he might let you go with what you desire the most on earth__money!" he said.
He knew she would immediately change her mind especially when it has to do with money. The only good thing about the lady that stood before him is that she made her intentions pure from the beginning.
"If I want to be a dancer, I'll buy a pole and keep it in my apartment where I will enjoy myself. I mean business, that's why I came to this club," she said the day of their first encounter.
To him, it showed how serious she could be, even though they are several professions out there, she chooses this one and brags over it.
At times, He will always wonder what will make a young lady like she indulge herself in this activity.
"Where is the lady? you numbskull, can you believe it's been thirty minutes gone? I hate waiting, like seriously, I hate it," he shouted over the phone.
Nothing made him mad than allowing him in the dark, he was stretched on his couch, he needed the lady to be here, had it been he had been the one to court her, she would have already been in his bed by now, but no, he had to send his crackhead personal employee to do the simple job for him, and yet, he was incapable of doing it.
"What is taking you so long?" he asked his angry voice piercing the ear space making him tremble.
He knows perfectly well who his boss is, a trick at him and he will be on his way to doom, something he dreads the most.
In a trembling voice, he gave feedback to him.
"I am sorry, Sir, but I tried my best to convince the lady to come along with you, but she refused, saying that she only does an hour with her clients, therefore hiring her for the night will be an impossible task," she concluded.
At once, he shot his eyes closed, he waited for his Boss's verdict, the sooner it came the better it will be especially for his sanity.
We expected, it came as early as he had planned it to be, he was mad and him for failing in his mission, he is not suppose to fail, personal assistance is supposed to be the best, very supportive, and always does the boss's binding, in order to receive primes from him.
"Wait, like seriously, what is that supposed to mean that the lady does not accept people to hire her for the night? did you let her know that it is the Alpha that wants her? did you call me name? does she know who is spoiling her for the night? I am sure that if she does, she wouldn't be fumbling around. Now tell me, does she know who the boss is? or where you busily courting her for yourself?" he concluded.
The fact that she had asked these many questions means that he knows who he is, always flitting around and losing track of the things he ought to do.
As he had expected, he was guilty of many of these things, he confirmed it himself. It would have been a huge sort of disgrace, especially as it will mean that he is leaving his questions unanswered.
It might cost him his life, and so far, he does not want to lose his life, therefore, the earlier he reports himself, the better it will be for him.
"I sorry once, but I didn't inform her about the fact that you sent me, I just played it low key, leaving her in the dark," he muttered.
As usual, he expected him to praise him, and to his greatest surprise, he carried the shock of his life, especially after he is being threatened.
"Before I drop this call and call you back in a minutes's time, let me hear the door of my room knocking, I will not tell you again, your time starts ticking now," he said.
His words frightened the young man, he felt like his life is being threatened, of course, it was, especially when he was the cause, he wanted to turn the hands of time to a minute back or so, he needed to apply wisdom, especially when having to deal with the lady, this is all her fault, had it been that she just accepted without bringing any problems, things would have actually been easier and swifter than this.
In anger, he hanged up on him, leaving him in the mood of frustration.
Rushigbak to the club, he looked at the table for the pretty young lady she just met a while ago, but then, she had disappeared.
'Wait, what does that even mean? That he is missing or what?' he asked himself.
Of course, that wasn't true. Searching around, he tried glancing his eyes through the several people that were at the club hoping that he will meet her, but to no avail.
He felt frustrated, devastated, and the fact that he will face her wrath scares the hell out of him.
Moving with anxiety from left to right, he searched for the stripper, his biggest fear is that she might probably be spending the night with another man.
If this happens to be the case, then she is doomed, yes, more than doom.
After about a minute of searching, he spotted the lady at the corner of the club, with him.
The joy that he had in his heart could surmount all his past experiences put together. Striding his way to them, his heart was lighter than before.
"There he comes, remember what I told you, play your cards wisely, okay?" he said rubbing his palms around the lady's arms.
who is always known for being brave, courageous, and wise now seemed to behave like a little inexperienced young lady who had just joined the squad.
A slow sensual smile played across her features, she blushed profusely, turning scarlet red in a blink of an eye.
She knew that the color in her face had transformed into a bright red, so she didn't dare to stare behind.
Turning her attention to him, she wanted to know if she was anything close to perfection.
"Hey, look at me, how do I look? am I okay to face the outside world? please, tell me, is everything okay with my? my hair tone, is it shuffled? Oh my God, please tell me, I am getting worried as fuck," she cried out throwing her head back in pain.
It was his place I comfort her, but then, he didn't want to take pleasure with her, he just wanted to boost her morales so that she can face the men without fear.
He stared at the lady that stood before him, and not knowing what to do, he hugged her.
The hug helped her to can down, she inhaled some air severally, she needed to make herself feel comfortable, and above all, feel his cologne waffles her nostrils.
They were busily hugging one another when a hug came from behind, it was obvious who it was.
They parted from one another as fast as they embraced themselves.
This time, she looked more confident, she looked like someone who is going to break the rules for anything, as long as money is involved.
Swirling her head at the man just cleared his throat, she waited for him to start the conversation. A pang of disappointment hit her to know that she had thought for once that he is the boss, how ignorant had she been before.
"Pardon me that I wasted so much of your time, I hope that you have no client on your list tonight because my boss..." he trailed his voice.
She cut in, saying it as if she means it.
"Has hired me for the night, I get it, let's get going now," she said rudely brushing past him.
He stirred at him with wide eyes, wondering what had just taken place, only him knew what ad happened, yet he raised his arms in confusion too, pretending like a didn't know about all these things.
As she let the way, brushing past him, his shocked expression made him grab her wrist still not understanding what chemistry was going on just now.
A minute ago, the lady was adamant, headstrong about her services being hired for an entire night, and now, she seems so ready so much that she is the leader.
He was struck to the core.
Stopping her tracks, he swirled to his side, ready to ask his question.
With a brow quizically raised at her, he let out in bewilderment,
"What the hell is going on here, I thought..."
Once again, She cut in, this time sounding more rude than the previous times.
"What did you think? does it matter now? see if you don't want me to go, that's fine, but stop ranting like a wussy," she fired at him.
His mouth dropped open, she couldn't believe that the girl had said that, in fact, his jaws had fallen, the same as his' own.
The bodyguard had the urge to argue a bit with this lady, especially putting her in her place, but then, he remembered his Alpha voice, It rang in his head a million times.
Shaking his head violently as if he had been in a trance, he decided to work things out perfectly.
"I am sorry, if you don't mind, let's go this way," he directed, opposite from the direction she was already heading to.
She nodded in apprehension.
Allowing him to lead the way, she followed him slightly behind him.
She noted that it was a thirty minutes drive she had with he, it was serene, peaceful, no one dared to talk with the other.
He' mind was troubled, every now and then, he kept staring at the lady who had her mind on the outside.
She didn't bother to start a conversation with him, neither did he, yet his mind was troubled.
Deep down in him' mind, he knows that if She reports him to him, he will have himself to blame, something that he is not ready to face.
With him, h doesn't look at the number of years you've been loyal to him, what always triggers him to act is the one time you commit a crime, no matter how small the mistake is, if you are not careful, you might end up taking a ride to Hades where you will present yourself as a parcel to the devil telling him his loyal servant on Earth sent him.
He didn't want that to happen, so the earlier he apologizes to her, the better it will be.
He always wants to be on the safe side at all times, because he does not know when a bullet might penetrate his forehead, so he needs some wits to serve him that purpose.
Going up a hill, he parked the car in front of a mansion.
It was big and was located on the hill, one could look at the house and admire it already.
Her eyes were bright, they glow with several sparks on them.
To say that the house is fantabulous is a slip of the tongue, she loved it, it was attractive, and she couldn't believe that she will be spending a night in there, it just looked like a dream to her.
She sent her hand to open the door but He hurriedly placed his hand on hers.
"Please, wait," he said stopping her.
