The Rebirth of the Betrayed Alpha novel Chapter 26

Hearing the sound of the door, Adams walks into the living room, and glances around suspiciously for a long moment. Turning around to leave when Alexandra enters back into the house, she jumps, meeting his cold eyes.

"You're there" she whispers, wishing she could smack herself for using such an unstructured line.

"Yea. I heard the door open".

"I went out"

"For what? You are sick, you should be in bed resting"

"I was but then I started to feel suffocated so I went to get some fresh breeze"

"You should have told me, I would have come with you"

"That's precisely why I didn't tell you"

"What?"

"You will certainly disturb my thoughts and make me talk every second, is tiring"

Adams laughs. "I don't".

Alexandra rolls her eyes.

"By the way, where you the one the first time"

"I don't understand"

"I heard footsteps and I felt it was suspicious so I came to check but strangely I didn't see anyone" he chuckled

"You must have had a lot to drink"

"I didn't drink last night"

"Then try improving your hearing"

"Improving my hearing"

"Olivia's not at home and I was in my bedroom, just came down now so who did you hear?".

Adams ran his hand through his hair.

"Maybe I didn't hear right"

Alexandra smiles. "Anyway I will just be in my bedroom"

"Didn't you say it was suffocating up there?"

"I did however it's chilly outside"

Adam raises his brow, confused. "The weather is scorching hot, how come you are chilly?"

Alexandra scoffs, pissed off. "What's with the question?".

"Why are you pissed off? I was only asking to make sure you are alright"

"I'm alright" Alexandra snaps, trying to walk past him when he holds her hand.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't stating otherwise just wanted to make sure you are alright"

"I'm alright, I will just be in my bedroom" she runs up the stairs into her bedroom, exhaling deeply, relieved.

"That was so close"

She falls to the bed, tossing and turning around with a triumphant smile on her face, imagining the look on Olivia's face tomorrow when she meets her fate. Feeling her hand itching to play the violin, Alexandra pushes the thought aside hating to draw unnecessary attention.

"When will he leave?" She groans, almost frustrated, sitting up.

Alexandra wonders what Adam was still doing In her kitchen, she had only sent him to cook so he would take advantage of the opportunity and run but she hadn't expected him to put on an apron and start preparing her meal. Lost in thoughts, a soft knock comes on the door and Adams enters with the pack doctor causing Alexandra's eyes to widen.
