The Rebirth of the Betrayed Alpha novel Chapter 19

Famished as she finishes her chores, all Alexandra wanted to do was take a little nap before heading to the library to study. Alexandra walks up the stairs cornering into the hallway, and enters her bedroom, she shuts the door, falling against the bed, groaning.

Closing her eyes, she begins to gently drift off to sleep when the bathroom door opens and Adams steps into the room, all freshened up.

"Are you sleeping?"

Hearing the familiar voice sound aloud in her ears, Alexandra opens her eyes, bewildered.

"Adams, what are you doing here?"

"Sorry I was waiting for you"

"Why? Didn't I tell you to leave already? What are you still doing here?"

"Well I'm…" he smiles a little awkward "I'm hungry so how could I leave without having breakfast"

"Did I invite you over? Why should I give you breakfast and isn't it a little late for breakfast"

"I meant lunch. I'm really hungry, just give me food please"

Alexandra groans. "You're driving me crazy"

"Sorry but this isn't how to treat a guest"

Grabbing her pillow, Alexandra throws it at him. "You are a guest when you are invited. You weren't invited and your presence isn't welcomed at all. Honestly, what are you still doing here?"

"I couldn't leave since your parents were still around"

"So? If you wanted to leave, you know your way around through the back door, and what about the window"

Adams picks up the pillow and strolls to the couch, he plops down. "I'm not a thief who sneaks in through the window"

"Isn't that where you came in from last night"

"That was last night and this is another day"

Alexandra runs her hand through her hair, frustrated. "You are driving me crazy"

"Just lunch and I will take my leave plus am starving"

"You know your way around the house, make your lunch"

"I can't cook. You already know that but you are a better cook. I remember that time you made that chicken stew, the taste is still lingering in my bud"

Alexandra laughs, trying to calm her nerves. "Get out"

"I'm really hungry" he makes a puppy face "Just lunch, what could be so wrong in giving this unwanted guest of yours lunch to eat? Nothing right?"

"Lunch right and you will be gone afterward"

"Cross my heart and hope to die shall I do otherwise"

Alexandra stands up, walking out of the room with Adams trailing behind, he observes her intently as she soars down the stairs in all splendor into the living and off to the kitchen.

A faint smile creeps into Adams's face as he stares at Alexandra while she heats his food in the microwave for a long moment.

Turning around, Alexandra locks eyes with him, dropping her gaze, she takes out the food and lowers it down to the countertop. Adams takes out the cutlery and begins digging into the hot pasta.

"So hungry" He exhales

Alexandra rolls her eyes and attempts to walk away.

"Stay" he whispers

"What did you just say?" She looks at him

"Stay a little longer"

"Adam!" She raises her voice aloud "I have a mate"

"Then don't marry him"

"What the hell do you think you are trying to do? No. What do you think you're trying to achieve?"
