Desired By The Alpha

I wanted to ask a lot of questions, but instead I kept my mouth shut and leant against the glass while I watched the trees go past outside. Before we reached the closest eatery, we were silent for the whole of the preceding hour. It seemed as if Asta had already made reservations for all of us at the hotel. The manager came out to greet him and shake his hand as soon as we entered the opulent restaurant that was packed with families consisting of a large number of people. "You are always welcome here, Mr. Moore. Are you in this for the job opportunities? Should I make a reservation for the standard room for you?" "No, it's not public knowledge," was the response. After he finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed my arm, drawing me in closer. When the manager turned around and spotted me at that moment, he was taken aback. He seemed to instantly see what she was getting at, as shown by the broad grin that appeared on his lips. He indicated with a nod and then said something in the waiter's ears. Following that, they led us to a separate room that had a circular table in front of a window that was covered with crimson curtains and seats set on both sides of the table. A number of candles were arranged in a cluster in the geographic center of the table. The left side of the room had a huge sofa with enough space for five or six people, a flat-screen television mounted on the wall, and a music system to the side of the couch. "One of our most romantic accommodations for couples may be found here." After that, he rubbed his fingers together and smirked at Asta while looking at her as if he was trying to get credit for something he had done. "Please enjoy." Only the waiter remained in the room with us after everyone else had departed. After Asta had provided us with dinner, you were once again left alone with him. In a state of extreme anxiety, I couldn't help but twitch my fingers. He reached behind him, grabbed a chair, and dragged it back while smiling at me the same time. "Please have a seat." After we had taken our seats, my mind started to wander to the woman I had encountered earlier in the day. It was impossible for me to contain my interest, and I blurted it out. Who was she exactly? It was clear that Asta was familiar with the topic. "She was someone who had dated me for a long," he replied while pursing his lips and making an impassive expression. That means they had a romantic connection in the past. That woman most likely wasn't trying to mislead us in any way. But- "If you had dated her in the past and broken up with her, then why would she come claiming on our doorsteps that she's still your girlfriend?" "If you had broken up with her in the past, then why would she come claiming that she's still your girlfriend?" It was as if all of a sudden I had transformed into a police officer and was conducting an investigation of a suspect. Before continuing, Asta exhibited an uncharacteristic pause for a while "To be quite honest, I never did tell her that we had ended our relationship. It was impossible for me to win." When I heard it, my eyes became so big. So what happened to her was she simply abandoned like that? I cocked my head to the side. It did not seem as if Asta was the kind of person who would date anybody for no apparent reason. He did not give off the impression of being the typical playboy kind of guy. Instead, he gave off the impression of being a callous and merciless someone who might severely punish you if you disobeyed him and did not listen to what he had to say. He swiftly added that before I could even begin to have any reservations about him in my heart. "It was important to me to begin my search for a mate inside my own pack rather than with an outsider. After that, I used a ball to pick an appropriate companion. Everyone was thrilled, but they were clueless about my objectives with regard to it. After giving each female great consideration, I decided to go with Abby, whom you have now met." When she saw the look on my face, Asta let out a sigh of helplessness and added, "It never occurred to me that this girl was a cunning chameleon who kept a lot of secrets; I had no reason to suspect otherwise. I despise individuals like them." "What was it that she did?" As he glanced at him, my interest was stirred for some reason. She must have done something wrong for Asta to simply up and rush off to the camp where the mating ritual was taking place. "We went out for a total of two years. I got the constant impression that this girl wasn't typical, but I convinced myself that it must be a mistake on my part. I investigated her history on many occasions and even had others shadow her throughout the day. Then, however, only two days before the mating ceremony, something took place that caused me to reconsider my position." As he recalled something upsetting, he scrunched up his eyes and became indifferent as his attitude changed. "When I was in her place, I eavesdropped on her conversation with her buddy. I heard every word. She made a statement that sounded something like, "I finally trapped the tiger, and I would soon become a Goddess of this pack, and dominate everyone!" Then she continued on and on about how clever she was to behave precisely like a girl I wanted to marry, and then she added something that was even stranger than that." In all candor, I had never before heard Asta speak such a great deal following the mating ritual. On the other hand, barely a day had passed since they had met. This individual was completely unknown to me. "Okay, so what was that strange occurrence?" I inquired as to when I had once again seen Asta hesitating in an odd manner.
