Sold To My Alpha Mate

Maya’s POV

After taking multiple photographs of me, I was convinced Venom had brought me to the restaurant to just come watch me live life and experience it.

We had ordered food which I failed serially at, but he came to my rescue with the menu and recommending what I should get or not and after every little movement or action, he would take pictures on his little camera thingy.

“Are you going to finally eat your food and stop watching me eat my own meal?” He only looked at me and smiled after I said that.

“I don’t think I’m interested in my meal the way I am in you, don’t worry about it. Let’s ignore it.” Every word that came out of his mouth felt like the most romantic thing ever and it was so mesmerising to know that he loved me.

I had finished eating and he had only gotten half way, I got an idea and figured I’d reciprocate the romance with him.

I picked up his fork and attempted to feed him the pasta before him.

“What are you trying to do?” He complained and tried to push my hands away.

“Come on, I’m trying to feed you, just open your mouth,” I told him.

After so much complaints and protests, he finally opened his mouth for me to feed him and it was his turn to feel shy.

Every time the fork went to his mouth, he would chew for a while and laugh hard at what was going on before him.

” You’re something else, young lady!” He exclaimed.

” Nope, I’m just doing what you would have done too. You had me blushing throughout, it’s my turn to put you through the same thing you did to me.”

He didn’t complain anymore and would let me feed him the food until I was sure he had finally eaten to his heart’s content and the plate was empty.

” Where shall we go next from here?” He asked me, feigning a strange accent that sounded weird.

” I don’t know, you brought us out and I thought you had plans.” I retorted.

” I just want to know if you’d like to be somewhere too. I wanna hear from you too.”

” I can’t say, you know I’ve barely had the chance to experience the world, how about you just show me the good things here and that would be it. I could appreciate that.” I told him.

He smiled mischievously and said ” wait a minute.”

I watched him walk to the counter where he brought out some notes and paid for the food we had eaten, he returned back briskly and was at the table again.

” Carry your bag, I wanna take you somewhere.”

I did just as he told me and we left the restaurant. “Where are we going?” I asked out of curiosity.

” Don’t worry, you’ll find our once we get there.”

For the journey this time around, we didn’t use any vehicles, we were trekking the whole thing, but slowly, he didn’t rush and I didn’t do the same , it was like we were savoring the moment.

“Do you know what these are?” He picked from pebbles off of the floor and showed it to me.

“I don’t know if” I couldn’t complete my sentence, we were interrupted. By who? By some people that wore masks on their faces.

Venom and I disengaged and we both stood behind each other, he faced the front while i faced the back. Perhaps, it was vice versa, all the same.

The men aimed at us with their machetes and we swiftly fought back, disarming the men. They were weaklings and I felt proud of my prowess.

Venom knocked all three of the men out and they laid there lifeless. He went close to their body to check their faces. “Bandits!” He spat out.

“Let’s go, I’m sorry for that.” He apologized.

“It’s not your fault that it happened and we were safe, don’t worry.”

The interruption from the men had totally changed the mood of our walk and how everything was going on between us.

“Are we still going to where you want to?” I asked him.

“Yes, yes, we are.” He replied to me and held me closer.

We finally reached somewhere covered by some leaves and trees but he managed to make a pathway out of the plenty of trees and then he held my hand so I could climb up.

I wasn’t sure of where we were going, but I had to trust him and warely climb up where he was leading us to.

“Where are we going?”

“Just don’t worry, we’ll be there soon. I’d have covered your eyes if I could, but it would be unsafe and you understand other factors.”

I chuckled at what he said and I just followed suit whatever he did.

We got to where he wanted us to and I figured we had actually been on top of a mountain all through the time. “How come?” I asked, I was bewildered by what I saw.

“It’s just illusions and geography, baby.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

I looked around and I could see the whole pack’s territory from up above. I then realized why he had wanted us to go up there. He positioned himself somewhere at the edge and asked that I come join him.

I went there and immediately, it felt like my heart would fall out. It was high, extremely high.

“I’m afraid.” I told him warily.

“What do you mean?” He laughed. “You’re a warrior and you fight at hell’s pit, what’s more brave than that?”

“You know those are different scenarios and I have to fight for my survival.” I retorted.

“Alright, alright, I give up. Just pick where you want to sit so we can watch from this top for the night, we have the whole time to ourselves.”

I sat where I had been standing throughout, I looked at my dress for a bit, unsure of whether it was the right thing to try sitting on the mountain top with it. When he didn’t complain about anything, I sat and waited for him to join me.
