Alpha’s Virgin Stripper
Chapter 89

Jade Lockwood traced the alpha back to the Rush Empire casino building. She walked straight past the huge electrical glass doors, slipped past the receptionist - there was no need to stop there, she knew just where she was going - and walked into the elevator. She pressed the button to take her to the top floor, where she was sure Lake would be.

It was only common for the man to frown himself at work on days he was unhappy. Jade had known him since they were little, very little had changed about him.

The elevator doors parted and she stepped out of the cubic box. She struggled to keep confident strides in her block heels, but she was far from confident. How could she be? When she was going to meet the man she loved most in the world, and without any invite whatsoever. She might have as well walked into a fucking lion's den.

Jade kept her eyes on the road, constantly wiping her sweaty palms against the fabric of her red tailored suit pants. She did not stop walking until she got to the door of his office. She would have bothered to knock if the door had not already been opened. So, she allowed herself to slip past the door like an eel dipped in jelly.

Just as she expected, Lake was seated on his chair. His onyx orbs were buried into the screen of the laptop in front of him while his right hand furiously scribbled into a notepad by his side, his left hand typed away on the keys of his keyboard. Jade stood silent for some seconds, just to drink in how handsome he was. She had known him for more than half of her life, yet it was hard to get over or used to his effortlessly sexy aura. He had stolen her heart without trying and the heart was still his.

"Drowning yourself in work again? You should give yourself a break, Lake. You don't always have to work too hard." She finally spoke.

The alpha did not raise his eyes or his head to look at her. He only stopped typing and allowed the pen in his right hand to fall on the notepad.

"And you don't always have to show up in places you're not invited to." He bit back. It was only after the statement had left his lips that he looked up at the lady in front of him.

Jade stared blankly at him. It was very common and she had expected him to do exactly what he did. But, if he thought that it would be enough to deter her, then he had a big surprise coming for him.

She cleared her throat and took one step forward, toward him. Lake sat still in his chair. He hoped, more for her sake than his, that she would not dare cross the table that separated them.

"I always show up because I care for you, Lake. I have always cared for you." She leaned into the table and placed her hands on it. She lowered her body slightly, opening a part of her cleavage in her chiffon top, to his view. Lake's eyes danced to her chest, he stole his gaze back immediately and focused it on her face. A thin smile formed on Jade's face.

Yes! She was getting there. Just a little bit more effort and perseverance and she would get him, she could almost feel it.

"I know you and Kenji fought. And I know that..."

She saw the alpha's jaw harden with a frown. By the time Lake sent her a glare, the iciness in his eyes caused her to stand straight.

"You do not know anything, Jade. Get out of my office, I would hate to call security on you." He spat out. His tone was laced with bitterness and anger, it was nothing she was unfamiliar with, but it did not make it hurt any less. His words of rejection always stung her chest and pierced her heart, even more than a bee sting and worse than a sword being driven into the flesh. But it had never stopped her from trying harder, this time could not be different. Jade allowed herself burst into tears. She stomped her feet on the ground and found her way to his side, walking past the physical barrier that mounted itself between them. The alpha turned his chair to look at her, his glare was more than intimidating, but Jade stood firm on the ground.

"Every time, Lake. Every time that I try to get close to you, you do all you can to push me away." Her eyes were flooded now; the warm salty tears ran down both her rosy cheeks. She intertwined her fingers firmly in front of her. "I have been here for years, watching you, wanting you. I could never leave if you didn't want me to. And even on days when you wanted me to, when you asked me to when you made sure you disgraced me, I stayed. I stayed, Lake." The alpha's eyes remained unperturbed, but Jade couldn't stop. She would not be able to, even if she tried.

She sniffed, giving herself time to breathe so that she did not choke on her tears before she continued. But not without taking a step closer to him and leaning against his table. She watched the alpha's eyes follow her every move, she took his silence as a sign to continue.

"I have always wanted you Lake, you know that, even after you rejected me. Wanting to be your mate was my biggest dream. When I found out Salome was your mate, I was hurt."

She mounted his desk, right in front of his face. Lake had turned his chair to look carefully at her. His eyes did not bear any emotion, but she was able to convince herself that he was enjoying the show.

"It broke me because I wanted to be your mate. I wanted to be the one to satisfy your wolf, I wanted to be the one to have you. But I waited, I waited because I knew that you were mine."

Slowly and sensually, she took off her first button. Lake's eyes darkened on her, she could see it. Heat rose from the sole of her feet and warmed the valley between her legs, moistening her panties. She liked the look in his eyes.

"I am all yours Lake. I have always been, and I always will be. I would wait for you..." She took off the second button, her full breasts were on display now. The white chiffon top could not do anything to hide them anymore.

"No matter how long it takes, Lake." She was not crying anymore. Instead, there was a fierce look of determination in her eyes.

"I would wait."

She watched as the alpha rose from his seat. He stood in front of her, and even though she was seated on top of his desk, he still managed to tower above her.

Jade swallowed hard and looked at him. Lake's eyes landed on her lips. She licked her bottom lip sensually and bit it softly, while her fingers worked on taking off the last button. The alpha seized both her wrists with the speed of light.

Jade felt herself melt into his table as he leaned into her, placing his soft lips against her right ear.

"You would wait forever, Jade. I would never be yours." He blurted out.

Jade saw red. Humiliation pricked the hairs on her skin. She sat there, frozen. Lake leaned away from her, his eyes raking down her body in disgust.

"Get out, Jade. Don't make me say it again."

He did not need to speak twice. She quickly buttoned up her shirt and jumped down from his table.

She picked up whatever remained put her dignity and self-respect and ran out of his office. This time, she did not allow a tear to drop, not even a single one.
