Shadow of the past

Amara Kaytlyn POV:

I admit I enjoy the lunch that we had.

I told him that I need to change and he told me about the paper bags that are in his living room area.

I saw that a while ago before he leads me through the dining area.

"I still can't believe that I am at your place!" I said as I stand up and turn my back at him making my way to the living room.

I don't understand myself anymore.

I am like a robot now.

Sometimes I am on the go, then automatically turn off.

I see the paper bags and took them as I make my way to the bedroom.

I undress myself leaving nothing, it's my normal routine before entering the shower.

As in I am totally naked while thinking if he cooked and prepared all those things.

"He doesn't have a maid?" I asked myself.

Then suddenly the door opens and there I see him standing looking at me without even blinking.

I stop and there again that f*cking feeling like I can't move.

He turns his back at me.

"Stay here, I'll just go out...side!" I heard him said.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to" he added.

I felt like I am having a fever.

He says something but my mind can't absorb what he says anymore.

My ears hearing something but it is not registering in my consciousness.

After a few minutes, he's gone in my eyesight.

"Am I sick?"

"Am I too afraid of him?"

"No! no! no! that's no way possible! I yelled and it echoed to the room.

I hurriedly enter the bathroom and opens the cold shower.

"Yes, I really need this to calm my senses" I keep saying to myself.

After showering I open the door to his closet.

I raise my eyebrow as I see men's branded kinds of stuff.

"He's a neat freak!" I uttered.

My closet is not organized the moment I enter it to look for my stuff.

My maid just cleans and tidy it.

I see a white long sleeve polo shirt and take it out.

"This will do", I said as I use it.

I grab the paper bag and take out one underwear.

The underwears are all white lowrise panties.

All are panties. No bra.

Well, I didn't really wear bras, I am not comfortable wearing one.

I am using a gel-like flower to cover my tiny pink n*pples and its just sticks to my skin.

That's a thing that only made for me.

I never introduce it to the market.

I storm my eyes to the whole bedroom.

Aside from the big wolf painting beside the big TV screen, you can't see any wall decor anymore.

Then I saw a small black wolf crystal figurine located at the headboard top of the bed.

It's glistening.

"What is this?" I uttered as I tried to lift it up but it looks like it glued.

I twisted it and its move and suddenly the wolf painting opens like a door.

I am just curious if what is inside.

'Whoah! A library or an office?" I uttered as I sat down and taps my hands at the table.

I focus my eyes on the screen monitor and my right hand automatically covers my mouth in awe.

I immediately leave and twisted back the crystal figurine to close it back.

My hands trembled at what I saw.

He is indeed the leader of the Alpha organization.

"How cruel!"

"What should I do?"

"Maybe my body automatically reacts like I can't move because I am afraid of him?" I whispered.

"I need to see Chase!" I uttered.

Chase Edwards is not only a subordinate but he is my confidant, my doctor, my psychiatrist, even Hunter doesn't even know about it.

Only me, Chase, and grandpa.

Chase and I were more like siblings.

My grandfather took him in and live with us.

I never ask him about his family and why he ended up in our house.

I just thought that he is one of my grandpa's far relatives.

He and I witness how my mom abducted 15 years ago.

I was only 9 years old and Chase who is 4 years older than me was 13 years old during that time.

I saw my mom waving happily at me in a few distances when suddenly a car stopped and took her away.

I also heard something then I felt Chase embracing me then I saw blood on his right shoulder.

Chase has a scar on his right shoulder because of protecting me.

Two years passed after that, I never see my mom again and my father who becomes aloof with me suddenly brought up Susanne and Olivia who were the same age as me and marries Susanne.

Yes, they got married because of the death certificate which my father handed over to grandpa.

Grandpa doesn't honor the death certificate and he publicly announces me as his young heiress at the age of 11.

Chase and I were accelerated in learning.

He let me and Chase go to Kashima and there we learn to depend on ourselves and defend ourselves.

In that place, there's a private academy that costs millions for a school fee and there we've met Hunter which just arrives out of nowhere we didn't bother to ask during our senior years.

The three of us with the help of grandpa moved back to Windsor City after we finish our academies.

But we have already participated in underground activities and created an organization.

----------------------------------------------------

I snap back to reality as I see him standing at the open door.

"The alpha's leader," I thought as I gasp.

"Come! Let's have dinner" he said in his baritone tone.
