THE ALPHA’S ADDICTION

“Who doesn’t know Lily? You aren’t even curious about how I came to know yours?” The strange guy asked Emma, as he crossed his arms on his chest.

“Not really.” Emma shrugged.

“Everyone around here seems to know my name for some reason they don’t want to talk about. So, I stopped asking the how and why questions.” She replied.

“I see…not your fault though…you are quite famous.” The guy who Emma guessed should be around Anthony’s age said.

“Famous for what?” Emma muttered tiredly, obviously exasperated with this fact that seemed to be more common than water nowadays. Why was she famous? She has only been here for a month plus, doing nothing other than going to school and frolicking with Derek. Or was it because she was Derek’s girlfriend? Did they need her, so that they can get to Derek and the pack?

She remembered then the dream she had had for two consecutive times.

It was surety that her boyfriend had been that wolf with blue eyes, the wolf that had died trying to protect her from the evil man which she was sure was a vampire now. Yes. If werewolves existed, then there should be vampires.

Was this guy a vampire?

The likelihood of this being true had her taking some steps backward.

Vampires, as she had read in fantasy novels, usually moved around in the night time, never during the day. The day time was their death time; they could be burnt to ashes.

As she took some steps backward, she also pinched Lily on the arm, wishing all the way, fervently, that the little girl would wake up.

“I told you to stop hurting her. She wouldn’t be waking up soon. And I don’t think that Damon or Daniel would love to see some red markings on their little sister’s flesh. They are quite…well…over protective.” The guy said, and Emma stopped trying to escape. The guy knew Lily so well, perhaps he wasn’t the enemy, perhaps he had just been strolling when he had come upon them.

But even as she made that deduction, she knew it was stupid and untrue, the creepy feeling was still there, in her guts. Anybody could know anybody, especially in this non-human realm, where words even move faster than light.

“Why did you say that she wouldn’t be awaking anytime soon?” She asked rather, picking out the point which she thought was of utmost relevance at the moment. She needed to know the why to this question to know she would go about in waking the girl.

“Well…let’s say I had a hand in that.” The guy said, coming closer to her.

Emma gulped down her saliva, taking steps back, gasping as she hit her back against a solid rock, more like a solid body.

Her heart beating out of the normal rhythm, she turned her head slightly and inhaled haggardly when she realized that she had just mobbed herself against another male, a much larger male.

“Where do you think you are going to?” This one asked her; his voice like the sound of rumbling waters.

“Who are you guys?” She croaked out, as she moved away from the new guy.

“Let’s say, we are just people interested in your wellbeing.” The first one replied.

“Wellbeing?” Emma scoffed.

“This doesn’t look like that.” She said.

“That’s because you’re trying to run away, instead of trying to know us.” The first one said.

“Draco, we don’t have time for this. Let’s knock her out already, before Daniel or Damon comes here.” The one behind her stated.

Knock her out?

No. she couldn’t allow them to do that. If not, she will be taken.

She had to stall them, until help came. They must have noticed their absence in the palace now, especially Prescott and the other twin.

“I have been trying to know you, but you seem to be bent on lying. Who are you?” She asked the one whose name she now knew to be Draco, determined to keep the communication alive.

“I think I have replied that question.” Draco answered, stepping closer to her.

He twirled some strands of her red hair on his fingers, while looking down on her with black emotionless eyes.

“What did you do to Lily then?” She asked, putting up a brave look, as she cocked her head one side as if to take a good look at him.

“Well, I have been watching you guys since you had come to the park….” He was saying, when Emma interrupted him.

“How did you know we would be coming to the park?” She asked, groaning in pain the next second, when Draco pulled her hair until her scalp hurt.

“You don’t interject me when I am talking. Understand?” He questioned flatly, like he wasn’t annoyed.

Emma nodded her affirmation, and he left her hair, much to her relief.

“So, we had been tipped off by someone that you guys were in the park. You could imagine the happiness that flooded my soul when I had gotten that news. So, I had geared up myself, with my friend that’s right behind you, to come pay you a visit, and of course collect you for our queen.” He stated.

Someone had tipped them off? There was a spy in the palace?? What a wonder! She thought sarcastically.

And then, which queen was he talking about? Leonarya??

No, No. She had to escape from this. But how?!

“I believe you want to hear the rest of the story, right?” He asked, and she just nodded, egging him on.

“Draco, we don’t have time for this! We have her now. Let’s go!” The other guy shouted, and Draco scowled at him.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Are you now telling me what to do?” He asked.

Emma thought that the guy had egoistic issues. Although, she was glad and hoping that they would fight and bicker among themselves till help came.

“No, I’m just…” The unknown guy was saying, but Draco cut him off with a wave of hand.

“Shut it up. I don’t want to hear you say anything.” He said, before shifting his gaze to Emma.

“Now, where did I stop?” He asked her,

“You were telling me how stupid and foolish you are.” Emma stated with a smirk.
