Lopen
I wasn't in the mood to have sex with Emmiel but now I was in the mood to punish him. How dare he advise me to get married to another?.
It's not that it wasn't possible. Most alphas do that. Although bonded to one omega, they get married to another.
The point being the one they got married to was theirs until death. So how dare Emmiel suggest I be with another that wasn't him?!.
Infact, why did this bother me so much?!. I hated being confused.
Just as Emmiel was about to sink to the ground on his hands and knees, I stopped him. "Come with me"
Taking his hands in mine, I lead him out of my office to my room on the second floor. "Get on bed" He does, looking expectant as I could see the fear in his eyes. "Relax. We're not doing anything tonight. Just go to sleep"
Climbing onto the bed, I pulled Emmiel into my arms. "This would do for tonight"
With Emmiel in my arms, I slowly drift off to sleep. While asleep, I had a nightmare. I'd seen the woman Dan had ordered me to kill for him.
As I sliced her throat, she'd cursed me with her last breathe that I would never find happiness and my lover would leave me.
Before Emmiel walked into my life, mere curse words like this wouldn't move me but after he had, I'd become anxious.
The woman couldn't revoke the curse because she'd died instantly. "No. Wake up and revese it"
"Lopen" A faint voice calls out to me. "Alpha Lopen!"
My eyes flew wide open as I find a worried Emmiel gazing down at me. "Emmiel?"
That's right, it was just a bad dream and Emmiel was with me. Those curse words meant nothing.
I had probably just dreamed about it because Emmiel had suggested I marry someone else that wasn't him.
"It's me. You were having a nightmare so I tried to wake you up" Emmiel explains. "Are you al-"
I pulled him into my hands, hugging him with relief. "I never want to have such dreams again"
"May I be curious about what you dreamed about?"
Pulling him away from me, I explained. "I've been cursed"
Emmiel gasped in horror. "What?"
I chuckled at his expression. "It's not that surprising. Alot of people hate me and wish i was dead"
"Honestly, it had never bothered me before because they were just mere words that didn't mean anything and I had nothing to loose" I continued. "But now, those words strangely made me feel paranoid"
"Why?"
"Because I have something to loose now; you"
What the fuck was I saying?. Infact, why was I even saying the words that spewed out of my mouth?.
"I was cursed to never find happiness" I continued. "So, what do you suggest I do about this now?"
"I don't know" Emmiel admits. "I wish I could take away your nightmare"
"There is a way you can make my nightmares end, Emmiel. Do you want to know?"
He nods. "I do"
"Getting married" I reveal. "Let's get married and prove that I can find happiness. You would never be able to leave me even after death."
Emmiel remains mute for a while before speaking up."We shouldn't get married if it's just to prove a point, Alpha Lopen. Marriage goes far beyond wor-"
Annoyed, I climbed down from the bed. Why did he keep on rejecting me?. I knew exactly what marriage was so why did Emmiel keep on reminding me as though I just threw the word around lightly?.
Unless he was just beating round the bush and was planning to leave me. Deception was something I loathed so it was best I cut him loose first.
If he wanted to leave all he had to do was ask and I'd return him back to the hell hole I'd picked him up from.
Emmiel chases after my heels. "Alpha Lopen, where are you go-"
"Don't you dare call my name" I growled. "You're planning to leave me that's why you don't want to get married so before you do that and make a fool out of me, I better return you back to where I picked you up from"
"Get ready" I informed him. "I'm going to call Kent to come take you back to that shit hole of a place. I'll just replace you like you'd always hinted on"
Emmiel drops to his knees, pleading with evident tears in his eyes. "No. Please don't take me back to the omega facility. I'm sorry Alpha Lopen. I won't go against your words again. Please give me one more chance"
"Why? Are you afraid to be labelled a damaged good?" I scoffed as Emmiel doesn't respond confirming my thoughts but I wasn't hurt by it.
Infact, it made me thrilled to know that he was aware of the fact that his life was in my hands. If I didn't keep him, no one else would want to take him. That is the sorry ass life omegas lived.
If he was that scared to be returned then he should grab this opportunity by the horn while it still stood. "If it scares you that much then marry me. You don't really have much of a choice. Secure a permanent spot for yourself in the Lopen's mansion before I change my mind."
Raising Emmiel to his feet, I continued. "You have nothing to loose by accepting my proposal but everything to gain. You get to really step outside into the real world as you're to be my side at all times in all things"
"I never wanted you close to me so that you wouldn't get wrapped up in business affairs but if you would be my wife, all your curiosity would be satisfied as you would be my business partner and not just my lover"
"So I'll ask you one last time and this would be the last; will you marry me?"
