Spare you the trouble
It was almost evening, and they could not find Kyle in his office or his house. It was as if he already knew they were on to him.
Alex decided to just go back home, but he suddenly remembered that Ellie might be angry at him. He forcefully kissed her last night, but he was thankful Callum called him because he knew he would have done more than kissing.
“Will she still be angry? No. She can’t.” Not that he doesn’t know how to handle her when she’s angry at him, but he noticed that she has been looking down lately. What made him even more surprised was that he couldn’t hear her thoughts again. And the only thing he could think of was to cheer her up.
“Take me to a flower shop,” he said to the driver. He had once heard that humans love flowers, and women like Ellie love it when a guy gives them one.
He bought her flowers and also got chocolates, which he saw on the internet, but he was shocked when he got home.
“Where’s Ellie?” He dropped the things he bought on the table and turned to Shawn, only to hear from him that she had left for her friend’s place in the morning. “Ellie left the house, and you couldn’t inform me about it! You’re fired as soon as I find her, Shawn! He screamed before going out of the house to look for her.
He drove at full speed for about a few minutes. He got to Jasmine’s house, but he was shocked to hear from her that she had left her house in the afternoon. “What do you mean she left in a car? Where did she go?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Warren. I don’t have an answer to that. She told me she had an important thing to do, but she did not tell me what it was.” Jasmine said with fear.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
He knew that he was wasting his time if he kept on asking her questions. He quickly called his men to put on a search throughout the whole city and to reward anyone who finds her within hours with a lot of cash.
He searched for her for hours. He thought maybe the rogues had kidnapped her, which was making him more worried and angry. He looked for her until Shawn suddenly called him to say that she was back home.
He quickly ran back home, forgetting to tell the men to stop their search. He walked into the house only to find the girl sitting on the couch, emotionless, with Shawn standing behind her. “You can leave.” He said this to Shawn.
“Where have you been?” He asked calmly, but Ellie did not reply. “I’m talking to you. Where the heck have you been?!” He screamed.
“Why?! Why does it concern you so much? It’s none of your business, so stop all these questions you’re asking.” Ellie snapped.
“None of my business?! You left the house pretending to go to your friend, and you dare tell me it’s not my business. Do you have any idea how I’ve been looking for you the whole night?”
“That’s enough. I can’t take this any longer. Let me spare you the trouble. That stupid bond has to break tonight.” She said , only to find Alex looking at her with a shocked expression. “I, Ellie Loren, reject you, Alex Warren, as my mate. Accept the rejection, Alex.” She said with tears running out of her eyes.
But Alex suddenly held her shoulder. “What did you say? Where did you hear that nonsense from?”
“Let me go, Alex.” At that point, she wished her eyes could change, but nothing happened.
“Reject me?” He scoffed. That’s something that could never happen. “Is this because of that stupid human? Are you trying to reject me just to go back to him?” He asked, which got Ellie confused about why he added Sam to the conversation.
“Let me go, Alex.” She screamed, but the man before her was not ready to let her go. “Yes. I love him so much. And the only thing I want is to get free from this bondage.” She screamed again, which got her free from Alex’s grip.
“You can never reject me, because I won’t free you from this bond. If you want him so badly, then go to him. Go to whichever house you want, but don’t you dare try to use any of the cars in this house for your plans again.” He said this before going out of the house.
Ellie fell to the ground and wept. Not only did she learn in one night that her real mother and father were dead, She’d still have to deal with Alex’s mother because her son was not ready to accept the rejection.
She took the flowers off the table and slammed them on the ground. “Why? Why does this have to happen to me?” She cried in the living room for a long time, until the crying reduced.
But not too long. She started crying again because of a sudden pain she felt in her chest.

He was so angry, he drove to the biggest club in the city.
Sitting on the couch in a private room. A lady was sitting beside him and rubbing his arms as he drank his alcohol. “Is Mr. Warren okay tonight? It’s been a long time since you came here.” The lady said it with her flirty voice, but Alex was not in the mood.
All of a sudden, he dropped the drink and turned to the lady. He slammed his lips on hers. He kissed and sucked on her lips, making it difficult for the lady to breathe, but he still couldn’t stop thinking about her.
Ellie’s face kept appearing to him. “Ah! Why is your face everywhere?” He groaned and walked out of the room to leave. He had come to the club to forget about Ellie, but he kept seeing her face everywhere.
He sighed and drove to the office to keep himself busy with work.
