Her Forbidden Alpha King novel Chapter 6

~~~ Allaya ~~~

“Man candy at 12 o’clock! Don’t look, he’s coming your way!”

Alexis smiles mischievously and my treacherous mind instantly travels to that man that looked as sexy as the devil himself, the absurdly gorgeous man that of course has a girlfriend.

‘You’re a terrible person, Allaya!’ I silently reprimand myself, yet my heartbeats are going wild in anticipation. Though I can’t explain exactly how, I can feel his presence in this club, that all-male fragrance mixed with fresh ground coffee scent is everything my nose can pick up in here.

Time moves in slow motion as I wait for him to show up, it seems like an eternity passes until someone is lightly touching my shoulder.

With no delay, my hope falters, I don’t feel my insides bursting into flames, so it cannot be him.

“Allaya, you’re here again!” A man’s throaty voice is pulling me out of my train of thoughts.

I turn around and meet a pair of charming baby blue eyes. A smile graces my lips before I can even become aware of it, he has that soothing aura I never encountered before our first meeting.

It's the sexy guy. Landon. He too has an effect on me, but somehow different.

“Landon Morgan, isn’t it?”

“You remember me.” He smirks, and then leans over, his lips grazing over my right cheek.

Suddenly, my flirty side awakens. I should focus on a man who’s not committed to someone else, and get the other one out of my mind forever. Though my heart is the one that craves for what it can’t have.

“How could I forget my hero?” I breath out a silly line, while a blush creeps on my cheeks.

“Ohh, I’m touched!” His hand flies to his chest, grasping it. “Since you are so grateful, I might steal a few dances from you. What do you say, are you up for it?”

“S-sure. I’d love to!”

He inches closer and whispers to my ear. “I have to take care of some stuff, but maybe later?”

I narrow my eyes, did he have the nerve to ditch me after asking me for a dance?

“I know that one, he is a man whore!” Alexis flashes a suggestive smile, her voice low, just for me to hear. “But doing him might prove to be a very efficient medicine for that broken heart of yours, as long as you know it’s with no strings attached!”

“Who, Landon?” Amiera never ceases to amaze me with her sharp hearing. “Yeah, Alexis is right. I know him very well, we are family friends. He is not a bad guy, but he changes women more often than he changes his socks.”

“So that was Landon Morgan!” The revelation hits Alexis.

“I didn’t know he was like that!” I utter, disappointed.

All men are the same. Jerks.

My eyes trail to where Landon went, and he is all wrapped in female presence, smiling and flirting with three ladies at the same time, they don’t seem to mind sharing him.

Wait… was that the stuff he had to take care of?

I roll my eyes in annoyance, he is just as entitled and arrogant as the others.
