Alpha Dominic
Chapter 79

Dominic's POV

She knows something, she is not acting right. I don't even know how to explain it, I mean, she didn't say anything to me or anyone and she is not acting naughty or asking any weird questions. She is so calm and docile, and that is my problem exactly. Bethany is too smart to be deceived so easily, she is never docile, I mean, never. I wonder why she is not asking any questions, I just can't help thinking about what could be going through her mind right now. She has not argued or refused to carry out my orders, she just accepts anything I say and agree to do everything I say. That is not my Bethany, that cannot be her, She can not turn into a good two shoes overnight, can she?

I stayed back in the office with Carl, Dwayne, and my tech expert. He sat by the corner with his laptop in front of him, working on the software for my computers and at the same time, building a security wall around my system that would be impenetrable. The guys and I were here to create a diversion and make everyone think that we are holding a meeting. Beth and Harriet left together, acting like they are following king Ashfords orders. We had to keep up the act so the moles won't replace out about our counterattack. I have a pretty good idea of what king Ashford wants to do with my computer, but I have to be smart about it because he could decide to get much more than I bargained for, he could corrupt my entire system or shut down my security system, he may decide to use this as an opportunity to replace out about my spies and their positions. He could replace out everything and even destroy me if he wants to, but I'm not letting him get anything, he would be so shocked when he realizes that he would not be able to get anything out of my system. I've instructed my tech expert on what he is going to do, I need him to work on a trick that would lead the moles right to my doorsteps. While king Ashford would be trying to steal information from my computer, my tech guy would be doing the same to his computer. I would try to replace out about his moles as well.

I'm going to make him believe that he is succeeding in his quest, it would seem like he has gotten all the information need, he would even think that he now has control of my security cameras. We stayed in my office until dinner is over, we had our dinner in the office, and I mind linked Alaina to get dinner in here, she is the only omega I trust right now. I also mind linking Harriet, reminding her not to say a word to Bethany about her family, I can't let her replace out, not yet. It would be bad when I finally tell her the truth, but it would be even worse if she did out from someone else, she would never forgive me. I just hate thinking about it, I shudder to think about her reaction when she finally replaces out the truth. It's all I could think about as I sat in my office with Carl and Dwayne. They were both talking and laughing with each other, but I wasn't even paying attention to what they were saying, I was so lost in thought, thinking about Bethany, I can't bear to lose her, and I don't want her to get reunited with her family, I just don't know what to do right now.

It was almost 1:00 am when Carl and Dwayne left the office, turning in for the night. I would have gone to sleep as well, my tech expert, Tyler has everything under control, he knows what to do and he knows how to reach me if anything goes wrong, I would have clocked out as well if I wanted to, but I just don't want to. I can't look into her eyes right now, I don't know why, but since we got mated, I replace it hard to lie to her, it hurts me to see her sad, especially now that she is pretending to be okay when I know that she is not okay. She must be trying to figure it out on her own, she would never give up until she gets what she wants. I just don't want to face her now, I can't look into her eyes and lie to her face. I just have to avoid her for now until this whole thing passes away. I decided to sleep in my office instead of going back to the room. I picked up my phone and called her, I would have mind-linked her, but I wanted to hear her voice, I want to see if she would get nervous or something.

"Hey babe, how are you doing, have you had dinner?" I asked her calmly, trying to take out every emotion from my voice.

"I'm fine my love. I had dinner with Harriet in the dining room. How about you, are you good?" she asked me calmly, sounding so genuine, her voice so innocent and sincere. I know she is faking it, I know she is trying to hide her feelings, I have no idea what she is planning, but I'm going to replace out soon enough.

"I'm fine babe, I just need to stay here and monitor Tyler as he works on the software. I won't be coming in tonight, so I need you to shut the doors firmly before going to bed. I need you to contact me immediately if anything happens, I'll see you in the morning." I told her calmly, earning a surprised look from Tyler who has been sitting silently with his laptop, tapping on the computer. He keeps shuffling between my computers and his laptop, tapping endlessly on the keyboards.

"Are you sure you'll be okay, would you be comfortable in the office?" she asked me calmly. I don't even know if she is asking me that because she truly cares about my welfare, I don't know if she is being honest with me right now or maybe she is pretending again. I don't know how I got into this situation in the first place, why can't I be completely honest with her. I keep replaceing myself in these compromising situations that always hurt her feelings and make her hate me. By the way I'm lying to her and breaking our trust. If the truth finally comes out, will she ever trust me and believe my side of the story?

"You know you don't need to be here right?" Tyler asked me, startling me back to reality.

"Shut the f**k up and mind your goddamn business." I retorted.

"Sorry boss, just checking to be sure that I understand what is going on." He responded.

"I said shut the f**k up." I yelled in annoyance, trying to get him to stop talking, but it seems like all the guys around me have suddenly grown wings, or maybe I'm losing my authority as Alpha. They just don't take orders anymore, they don't listen to my words again. "I will shut up boss, but I'm still going to tell you the truth first. What ever it is that you are hiding from her, know that she is going to replace out about it pretty soon. Nothing stays hidden forever, besides, your girl looks pretty Smart to me, she would definitely replace out the truth sooner or later. If you ask me, I think you should tell her whatever it is. Save yourself the stress of having to beg for forgiveness when she finally replaces out, because trust me, she will definitely replace out." He told me pointedly, not mincing words. He is right, you know. If I want her to trust and believe me, I have to make an effort to build a solid foundation for our relationship. If she replaces out any other way, she would never trust me again, even if I happen to be telling the truth.

No, I can't keep up with this. I want her to trust me. I want to build this trust between us. Our relationship may not have started out well, but that doesn't mean that we would keep lying to each other always. She always makes an effort, to be honest with me, and I should do the same also, I have to come clean with her. I got up from the couch where I was trying to balance my muscular body. I walked towards the door, heading back to my room. I'm telling her everything tonight, I don't care if she hates me afterward, but at least I'll know that I tried doing it the right way. I would know that I did the right thing although not at the right time, or is it the right time?

"I believe that thanks are in order." Tyler called out to me as I headed for the exit, reminding me to say thank you to him for telling me the truth. He should know that I'll never do that, I'll never admit that he is right, at least not right now.

"You need to learn to obey instructions." I told him sternly as I kept walking to the door. I heard his loud laughter as I shut the door, he knows exactly what I'm doing and it looks funny to him. Who would blame him, it looks funny to me as well, who would believe that I was actually planning to sleep in my office because I want to keep a stupid secret. Gosh, I'm so stupid.

"Babe, are you asleep yet?" I called her once more when I got close to my room, no, our room. For some reason, I just love calling her on phone tonight, I want to hear that beautiful voice, I want to hear it out loud and not through our mind link. Is that weird? "Not yet, my love." She responded.

"Good, now come down and open the door." I let out hoarsely, hearing her gasp in surprise "What?

Are you for real?" she squeaked out in surprise, then I heard the sound of her footsteps as she ran down the stairs. Damn, I miss her so much and I know she misses me as well. I heard the lock clicking and she flung the door open, running into my arms in joy. I twirled her around as we both giggled excitedly, with her in my arms.

"Why did you leave Tyler alone, I thought you said you needed to stay with him in the office." She asked me while still giggling like a little girl in my arms.

"Yeah, I figured that he can handle it himself and I know I can trust him to do a great job, besides I missed you and I wanted to hold you in my arms tonight." I confessed to her.

"Oh really, you really miss me that much?" she asked teasingly, rubbing her body against me, letting me feel the warmth of her body. I can smell her shampoo and lotions on her body, I'm sure she just showered to head to bed. Too bad she wouldn't be catching any sleep tonight, I'm going to make love to her all night, and just before she goes to sleep, I'll tell her the truth. I'm sure she would be too weak to fight me or get mad at me, She would be too exhausted.

"Shut up and kiss me already." I ordered teasingly, pulling her up to straddle my hips, leaning down to capture her lips in a fierce kiss, kissing her so passionately. She responded with equal passion, kissing me back with equal passion and fervor, making me groan in pleasure as she moans into the kiss. Damn, this girl will be the end of me, I f*****g love this girl, I can never live without her.
