My Alpha Devil

Chapter 2

UNTAMED LOVE CHAPTER TWO

I was arranging the files on my desk when Grace, a nurse at the hospital, walked up to me.

"Someone is at the lobby asking to see you".

"Who is it?"

"I don't know but he said he's a friend of yours".

"Okay I'll be downstairs in a bit".

I wondered who it could be. I had very few friends and they all worked at the hospital except Timmy. Timmy would have definitely called before coming to see me.

It couldn't be my brother, James, he was taking his masters in the United States and wouldn't travel down here just to see me.

I changed from my scrubs into my original outfit I had worn from home, then I headed outside.

I walked downstairs and headed to the front desk. Grace pointed to the direction of where my supposed visitor was sitting.

I froze on my spot instantly, and I could feel my breath getting hot and the hairs on the nape of my neck rising.

What in the world was Xavier doing here!!!

I really hope he didn't come to ask for an apology or a second chance or he would really see the other side of me.

Once our eyes met, he stood up and started walking towards me.

I didn't want to talk to him so I told Grace, "tell the security to walk him out of here I don't know him".

I walked towards the steps and didn't even try to wait when I heard him calling my name repeatedly.

"Grace I'm sorry. I didn't mean to".

"Sir this is an hospital we won't tolerate any form of noise please kindly exit the lobby". I could hear the security telling him.

I jammed the door of my office so loud and kept my head on my desk.

"Oh God what a day!"

*****

It was 6:30PM, and I was beginning to get feverish. I just wanted to go home and get some rest. I checked out at the lobby and headed to my car.

I turned on the engine of my car and revved off onto the main road.

I drove for a while and my house came in sight.

Finally home sweet home!

I moved my car off the road and parked.

I turned to open my door and stopped when I saw a figure sitting on my porch.

What was he doing here?

Xavier!!

I opened the door and got down from my car. I locked it and clutched my bag so tight. I was beginning to get so angry and I was starting to get very hot.

"What are you doing here Xavier?" I said almost shouting.

He stood up almost immediately and tried to touch me.

"If you dare touch me Xavier".

"Zoey please calm down and let's talk inside. I have so much to explain".

"Inside? Whose house? Whatever you have to say, say it right here or you leave. It's not like I'm interested in whatever you want to say even".

"Zoey I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to...."

"You're sorry?" I said cutting him short. "You could have just told me you were tired of me instead of cheating on me in that manner. I don't think you are sorry, I think you did it intentionally".

"Zoey no".

"I'm still talking Xavier, please let me finish. I believe you've had your way and you're satisfied with whatever you did that night. Please let me be, I totally forgive you but please stay out of my life". And with this, I walked away opening my front door and stopped halfway when I heard him talk again.

"I'm coming for you Sarah, you'll forever be mine".

I turned my back and was about opening my front door not until he dragged me back and tried to kiss me. I struggled and kicked him in his groin, and ran to enter the front door quickly.

He stood up just in time and pushed me till I fell through the door and landed inside my living room.

God! I could feel blood running from my nose. I got a hold of myself, and before I could figure out where Xavier was standing, I felt another figure behind me.

I turned back almost immediately, and I saw Michael.

Wait! What? How? When did he get here?

Michael and Xavier kept on staring deep into each other's eyes with a devious smile accompanied with it.

Michael gave me a quick glance and left without saying anything and Xavier followed suit.

What was happening? I was so confused!!

Soon enough, I ate, showered, and fell asleep.

Such a long day!

*****

"Michael Smith is not human!" I ranted to Jessica and Jay Paul.

I had invited them to my office because I couldn't keep it to myself anymore and it still feels so unreal. Even if Michael had threatened not to let anyone know, but I wasn't going to give in to this threats, never!

"What do you mean Michael is not human? Did you hit your head or something?" Jay Paul asked gulping down a glass of water.

"Zoey has been stressing herself lately, it’s probably just stress or wait you're falling for him?" Jessica said widening her eyes.

"Come on don't be crazy. Believe me I saw it with my own eyes he's a werewolf, and none of us are safe, humans basically. I literally don't know what to do that's why I'm letting you guys know".

"Werewolf?? In this 21st century? Come on girl get some rest". Jessica replied.

Jay Paul held my head in his hands and wriggled it.

"Get your head straight together babe".

I face palmed and wiped my face with napkin. "You guys believe me or not, Michael Smith is human, and I don't know what he's up to or even werewolves in particular but I'm going to protect everyone around me".

"That's blasphemy girl. Get some rest Jay and I have work to do". Jessica said dragging Jay Paul along with her as they walked out of the room.

"Arrrggghhh!" I banged my head on the table. "Now all my friends think I'm crazy".

I decided to call my mum when I get home at least she would believe me. I couldn't bear to keep all of these to myself.

I made way to the toilet to wash my face and ease myself. I opened the door to the toilet and walked straight to the mirror.

I looked lean and I had eye bags. I've not been eating well and I've not had enough sleep too. Too many things on my mind.

I started washing my face and I immediately felt a hand touch me. I turned back almost immediately and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Why do you have to scare me like this? What do you want again?"

He walked over to the basin opposite me and leaned on it.

"I came to see you".

"See me? When did the famous Michael Smith start visiting random people?"

He laughed and sniffed, rubbing his forehead. "You're not wondering why I didn't kill you the first day we met?"

I rolled my eyes and I actually thought about it. "Why didn't he hurt me?'

"Look I'm still in great shock about everything that is happening. I don't know anything. If you don't mind I have work to do now". I started walking out of the toilet not until he started speaking and I stopped in my tracks.

"Zoey Smith".

"You're stalking me now? How on earth did you know my name?"

"Doesn't matter". He started walking towards me and I moved back until my back touched the wall. "Good thing is we share the same surname". He stared deep into my eyes.

"Nobody cares. Please stay away from me". I pushed him away as I walked out of the toilet.

'God! Not today again!

*****

*THE UNDERWORLD*

Fiona Smith paced around the room breathing heavily.

"How on earth is this happening? How on earth is this happening John?"

"Michael should not make the same mistake his parents made. We'll end him if he tries to get involved with any human". John said glaring his eyes in rage.

John Smith and Fiona Smith were grandparents of Michael Smith, and the superiors of the underworld. Sam Smith and Elizabeth Smith, Michael's parents were one of the strongest werewolves sent to earth, but they were destroyed after they both fell in love with different humans on earth.

"No werewolf sent to earth is meant to get involved with any human. Michael is beginning to trespass".

"If he doesn't fix up we might have to destroy him. He can't put the underworld in risk just because of his selfish desire". John said gritting his teeth.

"We might have to visit earth soon enough John before Michael ruins everything".

"Let's get to it".

*****

*EARTH(BOSTON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL)

I was on my way to the parking lot. I needed to get some groceries from the store.

I unlocked my car and as I was about entering, someone from behind shut it.

"Wha...". Someone gagged my mouth and covered my face. I went into total blackout.

I woke up with my mouth still gagged and my sight blurry. I tried to place where I was, but it was strange.

My hands were tied to a chair and my legs were bounded together. My sight was clear now but my head was starting to hurt real bad.

I looked up and I widened my eyes in shock.

Xavier!

I wriggled my body on the chair and tried to set free. But all my effort was in vain.

He walked over to me and loosed the gag in my mouth. I breathed out heavily as I felt life feel me again.

"Why are doing this Xavier? Why?"

He gave me a devious smile. "I told you already if I will do anything to have you back. I can't have you freely, I'll have you by force".

"What is wrong with you?" I screamed with all my might. "Why are you doing all these? You chose to hurt me, I chose to leave you. We're even jerk!"

"Call me names one more time and I won't hesitate to hurt you Zoey". He spoke with rage this time.

"What is that even supposed to mean? What are you going to do coward?" I screamed my guts out.

He stared deeply into my eyes, and he closed his eyes. He opened them slowly but this time he had a red eye.

I gasped as I tried to free myself from the chair. His fingers started changing to wild long claws, and he had this wild dinosaur like teeth.

He gnashed his teeth and rested carefully on the wall.

'Wait what? What was happening?' I thought.

Different thoughts were running through my head. 'Yeah I know this! I've seen something like this before! This was the same look Michael Smith had the night I saw him!'

Wait! Xavier is a werewolf?? Xavier is not human! Now I know why he and Michael behaved that way the other day.

I couldn't believed my eyes as I blinked profusely and I needed somebody to wake me up from this bad dream.

He started walking towards me and I tried to free myself but it proved abortive. Tears started flowing deeply from my face. I was so scared!

He knelt down in front of me and leaned in until our noses were almost touching.

He cupped my face and started speaking. "I'm not going to hurt you my love, but I'm going to make sure no one is going to have you asides me. Whoever comes in my way, is going to end up being killed. I promise". He licked my face and I flinched as tears continued to flow from my eyes.

I knew I was in for it! How was I going to free myself? How would I call for help? Nobody knows I'm here. God I'm so scared!' These thoughts kept on running through my head.
