BOUGHT BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA

Chapter 9

I was very tired by the time we left the third store. Who knew that buying would take so much work? We finally got to the last shop, and I thought I was going to pass out. "Daniella, will we just keep on shopping?" I asked nervously. At that moment, my stomach decided to join in. Daniella giggles, "Oh my gosh! We haven't had anything to eat all day. Let's ask them to bring all the bags home, and then we'll go out to dinner." I nodded. Then, after dinner, we'll go home and have a ladies' night. Does that sound good? She didn't even wait to see what I would say. She told me to choose a new outfit, and then we would go to a restaurant just down the street. As we sit down, my stomach starts to growl again. Daniella and I had a delicious meal together. At the end of the meal, Daniella asked Bridget, "Tell me about your wolf." "My wolf? I told her, "Well, her name is Deli, and she's beautiful." "When did you last change something?" Daniella asks. “Oh, I’m . . . I don't...," I shrugged. Danielle takes my hand and says, "Bridget, you can tell me." "Well, two years or so." Daniella was shocked by my answer. "When did you last talk with her?" Daniella asked again. "Um, I think it was a year ago." I was so embarrassed that I turned my head away from her and pulled my hand away. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

"Well, dear, maybe I'll get to meet her someday." I could see tears coming to her eyes as she talked. We didn't talk as we walked back to the pack's home. We went up quietly, and when we got to the room, Daniella told me to take a bath. She picked out a pretty nightgown for me to put on before she left the room. I took a bath and got out of the toilet to put on the nightgown. Alpha William was sitting at the table when I came out of my room. He seemed upset. I just looked at him in silence. He is wearing a white shirt and white trousers, and his tie is hanging loosely around his neck. His dark hair was all messed up. His head was down and his hands were on his legs. I raised my voice to get his attention. His green eyes didn't interest me. He asked Bridget to sit down with him and pulled out a chair next to him. "Dear Bridget, I'm sorry about this morning. I'm not very good at keeping my anger in check anymore. And when I think about what those people did to you, I get very angry. But I want you to know I'm not angry with you. I just want to show you that we are all different. He pushed a small bag towards me and said, "I have a surprise for you." It had the most beautiful phone I'd ever seen inside. He kept his hand on mine, and as he got closer, he brushed his hand against my cheek. We looked at each other with our eyes. He tucked a stray hair behind my ear and then got even closer so I could feel his hot breath on my face. As his hand moves to my thigh, his lips brush against mine. As he moves his hand up my leg, it

makes me breathe faster. His lips touched mine, and he held my neck with the other hand. Oh, he wants me, and I can't stop him. But I'm still not ready for this. This is not what I want. I want to run away and hide, but I just shut my eyes instead. When I opened my eyes again a few minutes later, Alpha William was holding my shoulders and looking scared. "Bridget, do you feel okay? Your eyes got red, and you felt like you were frozen. What's going on?" He is so afraid. “Oh! Sometimes it does. When I'm nervous or if..." I stopped short because I didn't want to say what was on my mind. "If something bad happens to you," he said with a sad face. "Bridget, you need to let me know. Do you feel anything when I touch you?" He is looking right into my eyes. I look down at the ground. He gives me the phone with a sigh. "You can do whatever you want with it. I put my phone number on the list in case you need anything. I also added the numbers for Daniella and Liam." "What's up with me?" When Daniella walks into the room, she asks. "I gave Bridget a smartphone with your number already in it. He turned to Daniella and said, "Can you please show her how to use it?" He seems upset. Am I telling him no? He looked at me again and laughed, but I can tell he was broken. And I feel so bad about it. I know how he feels. Why...? How can I know how he feels? Daniella dragged me to the couch and looked for something to watch. "Daniella, can you explain the

mate bond to me?" I asked her, and now she's just staring at me. Your mum didn't say anything to you about it? She asked, "Or your father?" I gave a head shake. "Well, the bond between mates is important to all wolves. The moon goddess picks the right person to be your partner. You have the same spirit. When you and your partner find each other, it's like you're whole. You'll be drawn to each other and able to understand how each other feels. Your wolves can also talk to each other, and when the bond is strong enough, they can find you," she said. She goes on to explain how she found Liam and how they couldn't stop touching each other. We talked for a few hours before she put on a movie and I fell asleep. A few minutes later, I felt someone pick me up and put me gently on my bed. I heard him whisper, "Good night, sweetheart." That's when he showed up again. The smell of his breath is like sour spirits. He's holding me down to keep me from running away. "Where will you go, little mouse?" He snarled. "Sit still and be a good little sl*t." When I moved away from his touch, he hit me in the face. He grabbed my throat and squeezed it, squeezing it so hard that I almost died. If he keeps squeezing, this is the end. I'm going to die. I thought, "Please let me rest in peace." . . . .......
