Chapter 0037
“I’ll take care of you tonight,” Alpha Edward told me softly, “Don’t worry about a thing. You just focus on having fun and forget about that terrible ceremony.”
I smiled, grateful to him.
After my third tequila shot, I could barely walk. As soon as I slid off the barstool, I nearly fell to the ground. Thankfully, Alpha Edward was there to catch me. He had his arms wrapped around my body, and my face was pressed against his chest as he caressed my back almost lovingly. I had a weird feeling about his touch, and I didn’t particularly like it, but I was too far gone to do anything about it.
“Come on, you can come home with me,” he whispered into my ear.
I could hardly even feel my lips, so I remained silent.
He was practically dragging me out of the dining hall. I couldn’t use my feet, so most of my weight was being supported by Alpha Edward. I briefly wondered where Nan was, but I brushed the thought out of my mind as we reached the doorway, and the Alpha lifted me off the ground, cradling me bridal-style.
My head fell limp against his chest.
I murmured something incoherent, and I felt the rumbling of his chest as he chuckled.
“Alpha!” I heard a female voice say as he rushed toward us. I kept my eyes closed because the entire room was spinning, so I wasn’t sure who it was, but her voice sounded so familiar. “What are you doing? You shouldn’t be taking this girl anywhere. She’s far too drunk.”
“We are two consenting adults,” Alpha Edward told her simply. “It’s her choice, and she clearly wants to go with me.”
Before she could say anything, another voice spoke in a low and threatening tone.
“Walk away before I break your arms and legs.”
Alpha Edward tensed immediately.
“I tried to stop him, Sir,” the woman said.
When I opened my eyes slightly, I saw that she was the dean’s assistant. Gavin stood beside her, his eyes fixed on me. Alpha Edward held me even tighter.
“It’s okay, Alpha. I know her quite well. I’ll take her home,” Gavin said.
“I won’t ask you again,” Gavin said through his teeth. “Or your title will be stripped from you, and you’ll never be able to walk again.”
I felt Alpha Edward shuddering as he stepped toward Gavin. I felt the warm and familiar arms of Gavin as he wrapped them around my body, pulling me out of Edward’s grasp. I immediately clung to Gavin, pressing my face against his broad and warm chest, inhaling his scent.
“I… I apologize,” Edward said, bowing his head.
Gavin said nothing as he carried me away from Edward. I felt the cold air outside the moment we were out of the building. A car pulled up in front of us, and the back door opened. Gavin slid me into the seat before getting in beside me, his arms still wrapped around me, keeping me close to him.
Heat spread across my cheeks as my hands roamed up his body. He was so handsome in his suit and tie, I just wanted to undress him right then and there. His scent and overall aura were so intoxicating that my mouth practically watered at the thought of having him, tasting him.
He put his hand over mine as I reached for his tie. The space around me was still spinning, but a confidence like no other rose inside of me.
“What are you doing?” he asked, his tone kept in a low whisper as if it pained him to speak.
My eyes were fixated on his tie as I used my other hand to loosen it.
“I want you,” I whispered to him. “And I know you want me too, Daddy.”
I barely even sounded like myself, but didn’t care. His eyes darkened, and just as I got his tie loose, his phone rang.
