Alpha's Nala

Chapter 31: Hi

Legaxy

“Oh no, Evee. There are none.” I responded.

Then, I instantly stared at the two who looks like they still have a million and one questions for me.

Seeing that I need to ease them, I shortly flashed them my warm smile.

“Whatever negative thoughts you guys are distressing about, you should stop that now because it will not help you control your nerves.” I started gently while tucking my loose black strand around my ear, “Being in love with these creatures are very magical, ladies. It's unlike any other forces or sensations you will ever experience with a human relationship.

You see, with them mixed-race, you can be your true self without any second thoughts. With them, you don't need to adjust, just to please them. With them, you can breathe, you could live and could conquer whatever your heart desires… with them, you can guarantee that you will have a future full of unconditional love, unending care, and utmost respect.

That's how special it is, and to think that it will be you and only you who will feel the magical pull once you find your match, is something to be considered as a blessing already.

So don't think too much about their standards or preferences. Their likes and dislikes... Your RED will certainly accept you no matter what happens and will love you just the way you deserve. ” I enlightened, prompting the table to go silent.

Feeling that I said something wrong, stupid or hurtful, I instantly glanced up to glance at them.

Surprisingly, both of them were gaping at me with full of admiration and fondness that I felt my cheeks burn.

Thank you for the being who invented blush powder since it will cover the natural hue from my skin — saving me from embarrassment!

“It sounds so dreamy, Ms. Legaxy.” Zia finally commented with a dramatic sigh.

“Sure is,” Yvette conceded with a full-blown smile, “thank you for that, Ms. Legaxy. It really made me believe that somebody is really out there, patiently waiting for me.” She added and surprisingly, she hugged me. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Zinnia joined in after.

“You two are welcome,” I murmured after I freed myself from the group hug.

“Quick question though, Ms. Legaxy, have you been in love before?” Zinnia inquired, both looking and sounding interested in me.

That caught me off guard.

Me?

In love?

Oh, dear… How should I put this?

“Actually, I — ”

“Hailey?”

“Flower?”

Two deep husky voices, which I recognized as Howard and Axel's, interrupted me.

I turned from my chair and just in time for the two to be standing behind my back.

Before I could even acknowledge their presence, I saw Howard eyeing Yvette while Axel was on Zinnia.

Both men have blank expressions.

Then, their eyes' irises dilated and shockingly, a white mist appeared in their eyes, covering their original color and making it look like they had cataracts.

Woah...

I looked at the two girls, who were presently standing from their seats, and their eyes did the same.

Double Woah...

And then, with a blink, all their eyes turned normal again.

I was about to voice out my concerns at the guys when the two moved and pushed past by me.

Unexpectedly, and without any words, they hugged the girls; Howard engulfing Yvette in a tight hug while Axel embraced Zinnia more gently.

That's when I understood it, the boys found their match…

Holy mother of all grace!

Does this mean I have sisters then?

And to think that it's the girls from the ball, made me smile…

I instantly excused myself and promptly decided to search for the family so I could tell them what happened.

Not knowing where the others are, I decided to go to Dad first, remembering that he was the last person I have known the whereabouts with.

I ascended the stairs, shockingly with a haste even with the heels…

What?

I'm just excited.

When I was on the second floor, I was quick to recall that I have no idea where the meeting room was.

I facepalmed.

So, I concluded that I will ask somebody for directions.

I know there are soldiers here, somewhere…

I was just walking mindlessly along the hallways when I finally found someone to inquire to.

I tried to wave as I thought he saw me, but receiving no response from him, I run towards him.

Not the literal sense, but still my feet worked with urgency…

Up close, I noticed him wearing a blue-tailored suit with a black undershirt and a bow tie. His blonde hair was long on the top until down his neck, but short on the sides.

But what really caught my attention was his posture, it was rigid, and that he's looking at me like he's seen a ghost.

Odd.

Still, I need to find Dad so I just bluntly asked.

“Excuse me, Sir, but I was looking for the meeting room. Can you tell me where it is?”

The tall blonde man didn't respond to me at first, making me assume that he didn't hear me.

I was about to inquire again when I noticed his icy blue eyes looking over my features; starting from my face to the tip of my toes. Not in a lustful manner though, but much in surprise.

Like he knew me but couldn't wrap his finger around the idea as to where…

Then, his eyes went back to gaze at me. This time, his face softened.

I awkwardly waved a hi at him.

“Um, hi? Do I need to… repeat myself or… you just don't understand what I was saying?” I shyly questioned.

The handsome devil only smirked and with a clear of the throat, he mumbled, “It's on the fourth door to the left, Miss. Just walk straight from here.”

Oh God, that voice!

It was so deep and masculine, it almost reminded me of hot sex on a cold day.

What!

Why did I just think about that?

I felt myself blushed at the sudden naughty thought I just had and that's when I realized, I hadn't said anything to him.

Seriously?

Get a grip, Legaxy!

You're clearly humiliating yourself…

“Oh, thank you so much…?” I timidly eyed him, hoping he gets my point that I was asking for his name.

Surprisingly, he did and flashed me his perfectly aligned teeth.

I did catch a glimpse of fangs at the front though…

So that's why!

He's a vampire.

Yet, I'll be damn...

He's very handsome for an ordinary vampire that it completely enraptured me.

No!

I should not feel like this.

I know, I am more stable than this... Stronger than these abrupt fantasies.

But with this man…

Ugh, cursed Vampire men and their extraordinary beauty!

“Theo,” he started, snapping me out of my internal conversation, “Theo Callix Gray.” he proudly declared.
