Alpha Dominic
Chapter 118

Still Bethany's POV

I went up to our room, but I didn't go up into his bedroom, I sat on the couch in the sitting room and waited for him. This is the first time that I'm ever considering Dominics feelings, I can't believe that I'm putting his need a bead of mine. I'm actually choosing him over my friends and it sounds kind of weird but I want to take care of him this time. It's a welcome change, you know. He has always been the one to look out for me and make sure I'm doing okay. Yes, he acts like an a*****e sometimes and he puts his mission before me, but that doesn't change the fact that he always looks out for me. He may try to do hard to act all tough and strong, but I know that he needs me right now. It is high time I swing into action and activate my Queenly duties, I mean that it is time for me to start acting like a f*****g queen, I need to be there for him, I need him to know that I can share in his burdens, I can be the shoulder he leans on when his duties weigh him down.

The door pushed open and he walked in and shut the door after him. He sighted me on the couch and he came over and dropped on the couch, sighing tiredly as he leaned his head on the headrest, shutting his eyes firmly.

"Have you heard from the guys, were they able to locate the Alphas?" I asked calmly, trying to keep my voice very low so I don't sound worried. The goal is to ease his worries and not to make him even more agitated with my own worries. He shook his head in response, he did not raise his head up or open his eyes, he simply shook his head to the sides.

"How about you, Dom. How are you feeling?" I asked him calmly, making him raise his head to stare at me curiously.

"What is that supposed to mean?" he asked me, keeping his eyes on me.

"I know how difficult it must be for you to handle all this, I can see it's taking a toll on you and I wanted to make sure you are okay." I responded with a warm smile, moving closer to lean on his arms, kissing him softly on the lips, putting my palm on his chest, drawing meaningless lines on his chest before opening the first two buttons of his shirt, slipping my hands into his shirt, rubbing caressing his bare chest, hearing his breath hitch in his throat. "Oh, really Beth?" He asked in a hoarse tone. I could tell that he is moved by my touch and I f*****g love it.

"Is that really what you want to do, or are you trying to distract me from the real conversation we are supposed to be having?

Are you trying to act all lovey-dovey so I don't get to ask you why you killed those people?" he asked me sternly, making me pause my movement as my hands froze on his chest immediately. "What the hell are you talking about?" I asked him in shock.

"When did you start caring about my feelings, why now?

If you ask me, I think you are simply trying to take my mind off the important things. You know I am vulnerable right now and you choose to take advantage of the, but trust me, I'm way smarter than that. I may be down right now, but that doesn't mean that I would let you manipulate me. So give it up already because I'm not falling for it. As much as I enjoy having your hands all over my body, right now, I have to decline your offer right now because I have something important to talk to you about." He let out with a smirk while taking my hands away from his chest.

"Sometimes I wonder why I put up with you Dom, you are such an a*****e. For f***s sake you just ruined my perfect mood. For crying out loud, Dom, Why can't you just go with the flow, why can't you just let me have this perfect moment with you, must you ruin everything?" I yelled at him in anger and frustration, causing him to chuckle loudly.

"I thought you just said that you were just looking out for me, why are you getting so upset over it, did you have something else in mind?" he asked me teasingly, making me even more furious than I already was.

"You know, for a moment there, I actually thought that this is a normal relationship where I can show my man how much I love and care about him. I guess we'll just go back to fighting and arguing like a bunch of lunatics." I told him furiously, standing up to leave his presence, but he pulled me back into his arms, holding me down firmly, forcing me to stay in his arms.

"If you want to show me how much you love and care about me, you can start by telling me the truth Beth, why did you kill those people?" he muttered softly, bringing his hand to cup my cheeks, raising my face up and forcing me to look at him. I tried looking away, but he wouldn't let .e look away, he kept looking into my eyes, making me feel a little nervous.

"I told you already, Dom. I was just so pissed at you for not doing anything to them, he hurt Ciara, and it got me so pissed, I just wanted to pay them back for what they did to her." I responded calmly, but he shook his head at my answer, telling me that he doesn't believe me. I don't know where he is driving at, but I sure know that I am no longer comfortable with these questions.

"You have given me this same response for countless times, my love. But I know you, Beth, you won't do something so stupid simply because you were furious. You are always so smart and calculating, you don't make reckless decisions and you sure as hell don't go around killing people. You know I can never punish you for this, you are my queen and you have the right to order the execution of moles if you deem it necessary. I am not contending that fact and I have already forgiven you for it, but I need you to trust me right now, I need you, to be honest with me. You said you wanted to show me how much you love me right?

Well, if you must know, it starts with honesty. It starts with you being honest to me. And right now, I am only going to ask you one more time and I want you to look me in the eyes and tell me the truth, I want the whole truth this time. Why did you do it?" he asked me firmly, pulling his hands through my hair, pushing my hair backward as he kissed my forehead. I think he is trying to get me to relax and open up to him and as hard as it is to say it, I have to admit that it is actually working. "What does it matter, Dom. I killed them all, does it matter why I do it?"

"Yes, my love. It doesn't matter to anyone else because they don't care about you as I do. But it matters to me because you are my woman, my mate." He muttered softly, pulling me into his arms.

"Fine, I got scared okay. I was angry and I got scared so I killed them all."

"You got scared?

Sacred of what?" he retorted.

"King Ashford," I responded

"King Ashford? What the hell are you talking about? I don't quite get you, Beth, you need to make me understand what you mean?" he told me, looking at me curiously. "Maybe your stupid wore hasn't told you yet, but she was going to kidnap me and take me to king Ashford. She was ready to take me to that maniac and she was actually happy to get rid of me. I don't know what I would have done if she had succeeded in taking me to that man. You have no idea how scared I was, I have no idea what I would have done. I spoke to him in my father's room, Dom. I could not resist the guy, even over the screen. What if I was taken to him, would I have drooled over that bastard? Dominic, I would have screwed that guy and I wouldn't have been able to stop it. The thought of his hands on me, it scares the s**t out of me. I don't want any of the moles to escape and finish the work that Bianca could not finish. He could appoint someone else to bring me to him and I couldn't allow that, I can't let him do that, I can't let them take me there. It scares me, Dom, it f*****g scares me." I told him honestly. I know I had been so angry because of what that bastard did to Ciara, but I was also scared for myself. If Bianca had succeeded in taking me to King Ashford, he would have claimed me as a concubine and I wouldn't have done anything about it because I would be so busy drooling over him and ogling his body. It's so damn scary, I just had to take them all out so they won't get a chance to hurt any of my friends or kidnap me anymore.

"Oh, my poor baby." Dominic muttered softly, hugging me so tightly as he kissed my forehead and my lips.

"I keep imagining it, Dom. I keep imagining myself with him, when I close my eyes, I see myself in his arms and I just can't let that happen. I'm so sorry Dom, I'm so sorry."

"You have nothing to apologize for, you owe no one an apology. But I need you to trust in me, my love, I would never have allowed that to happen, I would never let anyone to hurt you. King Ashford would never have what is mine, he would never have you, I promise." He told me, promising to always be there for me no matter what.

"Now that we've gotten that out of the way, I want to ask you another question and I want the truth as well. No more lies, understand?" I nodded in response, smiling as I looked into his eyes. I could see the mischievousness written on his face and I know that whatever he wants to ask me, it can't be good.

"Tell me, my love. When you asked me to come up here, what did you really have in mind?

Were you trying to calm my nerves, or did you want me to calm your?" he asked me teasingly, pulling me up to straddle his hips.

"You are such an i***t, Dominic Rayleigh." I managed to let out before he capture my mouth in a hot, fiery kiss, kissing me so passionately.

"I've missed you so much," he let out in a hoarse tone as he stood up from the couch, with me straddling his hips. He carried me up to our room, kissing me passionately as he climbed up the stairs. I guess it's a good thing that we now understand each other again and we are now on the same page, I just can't wait to have him between my legs. Gosh, I'm so wet already and I know that he knows I'm wet for him. He inhaled deeply, taking in my scent and he said,

"I can smell your arousal, my love. Gosh, it's so intoxicating."
