Chapter 19-3

AMELIA:

I woke up to surprisingly replace myself still in the room. I had expected Dexter to be back home since but he wasn’t,

After rubbing my eyes gently, I rose to my feet and turned my gaze to the wall clock,

Fuck! The time was 12:33, and Dexter wasn’t home.

I took off my clothes and found a red silky short nightwear I was comfortable in. As soon as I was done dressing, I wore fluffy red slippers and began walking out of the room.

As I got to the living room, disappointment washed over me when I didn’t see Dexter anywhere. Did he not come back home because of what I had done to him earlier?

The household was empty making me believe all the maids were in their quarters already.

I didn’t have his number so there was no damn way I could contact him to know where the hell he was.

I couldn’t believe I was worried about that bastard and I had no idea why I was. Maybe because I was feeling guilty about earlier. I knew deep down I still Ghated him, but I was still worried about his whereabouts.

What if something happened to him? Would I be able to explain his absence to the Alpha King? What about my mother? I knew I would never be able to see my mother again without Dexter,

He was the only help I had to see my mother,

I hurried outside only to replace out that the car Dexter had taken earlier was still missing which meant he wasn’t home yet,

Nervously I began rubbing my sweaty palms together, my heart thumping so hard.

While I was still working at the club, I had no one to worry about me neither did anyone care whenever I was fucking home, but this was fucking different,

The night stars shone brightly in the sky and the lights around the estate made it easier for me to pace around the compound while waiting for Dexter but my nervousness kept growing with every passing second that I didn’t hear his car honk,

I had earlier expected Dexter to return home early so I could ask him about the gift but I slept off while waiting for him,

G

I suddenly heard the sound of his car and I took a deep breath out in relief. He was home! Finally!

The car halted a few meters away from me and I found my heart beating so fast. I suddenly kept a straight face, wanting to act like I wasn’t worried even a little bit and I had only come out to watch the night sky instead,

I certainly couldn’t let him know that I had been worried,

When Dexter stepped out of the car, I watched him stagger a bit before he was able to stand upright and I arched my brows,

After shutting the door, he turned towards my direction and our eyes met,

What the hell was wrong with him,

I began to walk toward him and as I got closer to him I could perceive the strong smell of alcohol,

He... he had been drinking?

"Amelia?" He questioned without his gaze leaving me and as I stared at him, all I could see was a little kid who was rather very lost and hurt.

I moved even closer to him,

"Are you alright?" I questioned him worriedly, my Ggaze unable to leave his even for a second,

Unexpectedly, he pulled me closer to his warm body and wrapped his arms around me for a tight hug,

But when I sniffed, I could perceive something else around him. The stench of another woman filled his body and since his neck was lowered to my gaze, my eyes darted to his collar and I saw a lady’s lips stick buried in his collar,

I fluttered my brows twice, unable to comprehend whatever I was feeling, but I knew one thing. I was hurt by the sight of it.
