Alpha Alec's Redemption



"Yes, Alec had told me that you would come by," she sits down. I follow suite, sitting beside her.

I take her hand and mesh our fingers together before placing our joined hands on my lap. Her hand tightens in warning, but I refuse to let her go. I am not going to miss this chance. The chance to feel her even if it's just her hand.

"Do you have any enemies? Anyone that would want to harm you?" Nolan directs the question to me.

"I'm a businessman, of course I have a lot of rivals and enemies. It comes with owning the largest security firm in the country."

"Anyone that would have a personal vendetta?" This comes from Chris.

Well, plenty of them if I am being honest, but they don't need to know that.

"Not that I know of, officer."

"What about you, Sadie?" Chris directs the question to her.

"I don't think so. I would say the thousands of women who are infatuated with my fiancé, but not a lot of people know that we are engaged."

Who would have thought that Sadie was such a good actress? Looking at her, if I didn't know the truth, I would have believed her.

"How long have you been engaged, and where is your engagement ring? I doubt a man like Mr. Ashford would propose without a ring." Nolan's eyes move from Sadie's finger back to her face.

Fuck. I'd not thought of that. Should have bought a damn ring or told them that she was my girlfriend.

"I think I lost it during the wreck. I woke up without it, and the nurses said I didn't come in wearing a ring on my finger." Sadie looked sad, as if the thought of her lost ring broke her heart. "We've only been engaged for about three months.”

"Don't worry, darling, I'll get you another. A better one" I raise our joined hands and skim my lips on the back of her hand before kissing it.

"But I want that one. It was the perfect one," she pouts, her eyes shining with unshed tears.

Damn, she was good.

I turn to the officers. "Please, if you find it, let us know."

They nod their heads. They then jot something down in their notebooks.

"Did you get a good look at the men that were after you?" Chris asked.

"Not really. What was important to me is Sadie. I needed to get her to safety." I didn't lie. That part was true. My only concern then was getting Sadie some help.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"We understand that Sadie was the one driving?" Chris looks from us to his notebook.

"Yes, I was," Sadie answered.

"And what happened after you crashed?" Nolan questioned.

"I got Sadie out of the car; we ran to the forest and hid. I couldn't risk engaging them when I didn't know if they were armed. My phone had cracked but surprisingly worked called my men. When they found us, they told me they ran when they heard them. They tried capturing them, but they escaped and couldn't find them." I lied

"We haven't been able to trace them either; the car they used was stolen so we have no lead so far, but can assure you that we are doing all we can to catch those men," Chas assures us.

Sadie and I just nodded our heads, but deep down we knew they wouldn't be able to catch them. They were already dead.

"That's all for now... If you remember anything important, please give us a call." Nolan hands us a car and I take it. "Thank you for your time." "Thank you for coming."

The moment they are gone, Sadie springs away from me as if I have an infectious disease.

“Don't ever ambush me like that ever again, Alec,” she growled, her eyes flashing and narrowing into slits.

"I did no such thing."

"Really? Then what was it with the damn kisses?"

"We needed to sell the picture of a loving, affectionate couple," I shrugged, lying to her face. I can't really tell her I kissed her because I wanted to feel her soft skin.

Her hands are fisted, and her lips

form a thin line. She opens her mouth about to probably spit something at me, but her phone rings. Her eyes widen after checking the caller ID before she answers.

"Rave! Where the hell have you been?" She screamed, her tone a mix of relief and frustration.

She quietens down as she listens to whatever Raven was telling her. A minute or so later, she hangs up.

"What is it?" I asked, noticing the worried look on her face.

"Raven told me to get to the pack. She found something. Something important."
