CHAPTER 3: FESTIVITIES

Alpha Leonard POV

The moment I saw her with her father on the first day I met her, I knew there and then that I would be so into her and won’t be able to stop myself from obsessing over her, the look of fear on her face almost forced me to hug her and promise her all the world but I knew I had. To be strict with her because she didn’t want me.

The first night with her felt like heaven and after that day I couldn’t stop myself from having her. My mate felt it was getting too much and tried to call me to order but I got angry and stopped her from being present with us.

“You should mind your fucking business and make sure she’s taking all her medication and eating well!… In Fact, face that and stop coming to her room whenever I’m there” she didn’t like the idea of me being alone with Florence but she dare not say anything to piss me off.

My relationship with Rose was a very complicated one, I didn't believe she's my mate. The first time I met Rose I never perceived her as my mate and the second time we met I did which was weird. I never felt that mate pull but it came around once in a while but I still kept her around.

I was beginning to like Florence and Rose was becoming annoying I'm sure she hated it cause I never had such relationship with her.

Sometimes I would walk up to Florence wherever and whenever, order her to pull her skirt or gown up or her trousers down and have her right there, the guards or maid. Would have to excuse us or watch us for all I care, she’s mine and I don’t give a damn what anybody thinks.

“What else do you want… Florence, talk to me! You keep crying all over the place, haven’t I done enough to make you happy?” I asked her, I needed to hear from her. I noticed that she’s so scared and shy with me that she hardly talks around me.

“I enrolled you in college and allowed you to make friends… I want you to be happy here but if you keep thinking you can go back to whoever it is, I might have to lock you up and that would be cruel” I threatened her, maybe she would open her shivering mouth to talk to me if I did that.

But she kept her head bowed and mouth closed, i grumbled in frustration, I turned away from her and sauntered briskly to the far end of my office to look outside my window, doing that always help me stay calm and my father begged me on her behalf just last night to stay serene with her.

But she always infuriate me, most time I would have to tie her to her bed before I can have access to her sexy and alluring body, it’s becoming scary even to me because I can’t have enough of her, one time I had her until she fainted and I was still pounding aggressively into her. Bathed her to revive her and continued again, it’s that crazy.

“I allow you to invite your friends to the mansion.. I treat you right and give you every good thing in life.. so what else” I asked again, still looking out from the window, the view of the blue sea and green grass in my mansion, was beginning to calm my nerves as usual.

“If … if you will allow me call my mother” she finally spoke to me, i veered around quickly to look at her, she was about to cry again as usual, i brought out one of my personal phone and walked quickly toward her to hand it over to her, she called her mothers’ number and I found myself reaching to her beautiful face to clean her tears.

She sniffed in her tears and spoke into the phone.. “it’s me mother … it’s your daughter … ahaaa mother .. it’s me… yes… mother I’m fine … please don’t cry… ohooo … it’s a blatant lie.. I didn’t run anywhere … noooooo!… mother he sold me … he sold me … mother … ahaaaaa.. he’s a liar….” She was talking rapidly into the phone. Her full attention was so engrossed in the discussion that she didn’t realize when I took the phone from hee.

“Hell… helloooo… Florence.. are you there.. hello… ohooo… Florence .. Please talk to me” her mother was crying and calling out at the top of her voice through the phone, I gazed at Florence and she stood behind me, stretching her hand to take back the phone.

But I didn’t give it back to her before she find a way to inform her so called mate about her whereabouts, “mother she’s fine … she’s with me… and I’m

Taking good care of her” I assured her teary mother, she laughed sadly but said nothing in response.

“I asked your husband and he told me you both knew about the transaction..” I told her truthfully? Florence's mother sighed and cried out through the phone, guessing she couldn’t hold her composure any longer.

“He’s a liar, he told me she ran away when he got home that night… I have been crying and begging him to allow me to search for her, I thought something bad happened to her… thank you for allowing her to have this call Alpha Leonard …thank you…” she breathed out amidst her tears.

I didn’t know what to do with both of them. Florence had cuddled herself in one of my couches and was crying her eyes out while her mother was brawling through the phone as well. I ended the call at once and moved quickly back to my glass window, breathing out my frustration.

“I don’t have whores or any other woman who graced my bed, until I met you I don’t intend to hurt you Florence… it’s for this pack's sake.. the famine will kill Everyone except we have a child from my blood… since you got to the mountain crest here, things have improved and plants are yielding.. Why do You think I will give that away?” I spoke to her softly? But my gaze was fixed outside my window.

She said nothing and kept crying but this time it was low sobs rather than the loud wail she and her mother were exchanging a few minutes ago, then I dropped the bomb, the main reason I called her into my office.

“We will be getting married soon Florence .. as soon as possible” she thought I was joking around, maybe to get her to cooperate with me, because she didn’t say anything to my announcement.

Instead she excused herself to leave, but when she started to see the elder council, spiritual leaders and my pack people troop into the estate, she found out that I wasn’t joking.

She tried everything to escape it, begged, cried and even sent Rose to talk to me but it was all in vain, my mind was made up, I couldn't live if I lost Florence. Now I know and I won’t leave any opportunity for her so called mate to take her away.

“This is not a good idea… we didn’t talk about this when I picked her” rose grumble quietly to me while the wedding was being held. I ignored her and instead placed my attention on my new wife to be.

Something about Florence makes me want to give her the whole world, although I had to chain her in her chair to keep her from running off or causing a scene but I know she will come around one day.

She will realize why I’m doing all these and understand it’s merely for her sake mostly.
