MY ALPHA CHEATS ON ME, I MARRY HIS ALPHA BESTFRIEND

Maya's POV

I walk with great pride to the stage, amidst the cheers of a few and murmurs of the rest, the jealous winks of girls. None of these negative reactions get to affect me because what has happened to me is much more than I can ever think of.

He takes my hand and faces the audience, looking straight into my eyes, he begins his speech.

"What do you have that qualifies you to be my girlfriend?"

"Huh?"

"You heard me right?" His tone gets more firm. I stare at him with a confused face, a blank mind which can't think of the next thing to do as defense here. "Will you reply to me and stop acting like a fool?"

"What?"

A heavy slap swipes across my cheeks as I attempt to ask what he meant. The girls who had been winking at me with jealousy now push themselves to the front where they boo harder, so I can hear them saying. The rest feel sorry for me, a good number but not as much as those who are glad I've been disgraced.

"Can you look at yourself in the mirror everyday? I think you don't have one in your house?"

"Why did you say so?" I protest, tears fighting high in his eyelids, his eyes are now crowdy and bloodshot. Anger shoots tight across his face.

"You wretched daughter of bankrupt parents dare to force your way into my life? I have always noticed you and how you wished to make me yours right from the estate we stay, so sad that you have been foolish up to the extent of believing I would accept you as my girl. What of all the fine girls here?" He points through the crowd at the sexy girls standing in front, they giggle in excitement, then Kennedy's heated up face returns its focus on me, I flinch my face to avoid his furious glare.

"I'm sorry!" I mutter in a very low tone, folding my arms and glancing at the floor with sorrows. Why is it that no man cares to look my way? All those stories of a billionaire falling for an ordinary, but beautiful girl, why can't they happen to me?

"Hmmm," I sigh, obviously frustrated and downcasted, the hormones which had skyrocketed to bliss, descended drastically.

"I declare you unfit to even breathe the air that I breathe, talk less of even stepping a foot closer to me. Henceforth, I don't wanna see you anywhere near me both in school here and at the estate!” He barked, sending me deadly stares.

“Guess what will happen if you disobey?" He leans and hisses. "You know what can happen, nothing to doubt."

A heavy burden picks up on top of my head as Kennedy's instinct has rejected me. It is quite evident and has been occurring in several cases. When you crush on someone like in the physical sense and you both are soulmates, then he rejects you while you don't, he releases that part of his negative energy which bothered him on you and you are now left to go with the problems of two persons, yourself and him.

"I don't have time for fucking idiots like you, perhaps you can go find a guy who is in your class." He puts on his tinted sunglasses, walks down to the crowd, picking a girl from among the audience down, one of my mockers. Without even looking at me, he walks off, making the mockery even louder and worse, some of them start to throw empty bottles on me, the rest scream hard, booing me off the podium.

"What were you thinking before, when he called up?"

"Do you think a girl like you would ever fit in Kennedy's eyes!"

"Come, don't be naive. You're just perfect for some dumbass, not a prince like Kennedy. He is a prince even though he is not royalty. Come on, just look at him!"

I hear all the other comments from the girls, I feel hot tears burning in my eyes and running down my cheeks, I shouldn't have done this to myself, now laughter erupts and some scream 'coward.' I can't handle it anymore, I run off the stage, outside, as fast as possible. The soothing air of the afternoon calms my nerves, with the setting rays of the sun. Its golden nature is the best for such moments like this.

If not for anything, I take consolation that one day the sun will shine. I don't know how or when or through what means, I got to believe it. This single dose of optimism soon paves way for depression, the ordeal was so terrible, something I can't easily forget.

I don't know for how long I've been wandering till I reach the gym, the most popular gym we have in town. Would love to visit it today, so I pushed the door open. Some workout would serve as a remedy to this, I would come out strong, so I actually opt in for this.

My eyes scan through the entire gym, on ordinary days, it's always filled with people even into the night. How come I don't see anyone? A voice deep within me asks me to look to the left.

Aarrghh!

I gasp, placing my hand on my mouth in an attempt not to be heard. I turn around slowly, attempting to run but all of a sudden, his deep brash voice thunders, shaking all the energy remaining off me.

"Freeze!! If you move, I shoot your legs." He starts to walk towards me, my eyes close in fright, even the aura that follows him is deadly.

It's Caden Jackson of the Jackson's family too. Caden is his real name, aside this, it depicts who he is, a tall, muscular but charmingly handsome young man in his late twenties. A dreaded mafia who eliminates anyone who crosses his paths, has his deadly gang and partakes in undercover operations. We, living at the Jackson's estate know fully well about him, even most people outside. He's deemed one of the most dangerous mafia in the world. Most refer to him as the Last Man, others Evil genius and others Charming Death. All these names aren't just fond names, but they fit into him based on what he does.

There is no one who wouldn't set eyes on Caden and not shiver. From where he stood, I began to hear the voice of guys supposed to be conspiring. Panic shoots through my vein, before I could make my next blink of eye, he jacks me off my foot, grabbing me tight.

"Fuck, delicious meal. You wouldn't enter my trap and escape the way you came." He opens the door of his car packed outside and pushes me in, as if I was some non-living trash, in the process I hit my head on the window. This doesn't concern him either. Before I knew it, he was zooming off at a terrible speed. All these happened within a few seconds, before I could get a full clue of what's happening.

Here I know, I'm in great trouble. Would I come out of this trap alive? Hot tears burn down my cheeks like tar, as I remain inside here like a cow being led to the slaughter.
