The Alpha and Vampire King Fight for Me

Thursday morning.

Alessia walked into her office only to be informed that all her orders had arrived and her secretary had signed the paperwork as the receiver, but when she inspected the delivery, she came to know that some things were missing or rather not delivered and that made her really disappointed. She didn't have any other choice but to go back to the mall to sort out the mix up.

Alessia checked everything else had been delivered and was right, before leaving the office, getting into her car and making her way to the mall where she had originally ordered the items from. The whole journey there she hoped that this problem would be able to be peacefully rectified, especially as the paperwork had already been signed to say that everything was present and accounted for. After a while Alessia pulled onto the mall's car park and parked her car.

Alessia walked into the mall, passing the security guards dressed in their uniforms. As usual a salesgirl walked to her, but it wasn't the one that had attended to her and Zelda the last time she came here so it wasn't easy explaining the situation to her. Alessia showed her the paperwork, but since everything had been signed for the salesgirl had no say in the situation because it was above her capability and her work so she directed her to their boss's office. Alessia asked what her boss's name was, so she could introduce herself, but the salesgirl didn't know who her boss was nor had she seen him, but she had heard rumours from the other staff that their boss looked like a pale, skinny man with red-blooded eyes. She directed Alessia to his office, which was located on the top floor of the building and it was a restricted area from the staff so she had nowhere to direct Alessia other than the owner of the mall.

Alessia was eager to sort out the mix-up and to get her missing orders, so that she could go back to the company and start working. She followed the directions of the salesgirl and walked into the next empty elevator and pressed the button to the top floor. Immediately, the elevator jerked up, but she could feel an unusual emotion running through her as she waited patiently till it dinged open to the floor where she was going, she blinked her eyelashes as to why the hallway appeared dark from inside the elevator. She hesitated slightly before stepping out into the cold, dark hallway, scared of what lurked in the shadows.

She stared down the dark hallway and wondered where she really was. Why was this place so mischievously dark? It was creeping the daylights out of her.

She stiffened as cold air blew at her back and she realised that there was a presence behind her. As she turned she was startled at what she saw, it was the same man she had seen in the mall when she came with Zelda.

His piercing red eyes stared at her, the gleam on his eyes made her uncomfortable and she couldn't help thinking that the colour of his eyes weren't real, that he was wearing contact lenses. She took some steps backwards as she tried getting away from his gaze that seemed to be staring at her very hard. She moved backwards nervously, hoping to get away from him but he took more steps towards her and her eyes were wide in horror as he kept on moving towards her while she moved backwards.

Her temperature began rising dramatically as his eyes were roaming all over her and creeping the hell out of her. She wanted to escape from his gaze, his eyes turning to a predator watching his shivering prey. She kept on taking little steps backwards, but as she felt her back hit the wall, she realised she was now trapped as she had nowhere left to run to. Especially from his enchanting red eyes that seem to be swirling, almost drawing her in.

" Why are you shivering?! " As he spoke, the cold air from the hallway blew on her face and she could see another glittering of his eyes from the dark.

His hands went to her waist, holding her steady, but his hands were so cold that they were sending shivers into her. He continue to stare though not as intense as before.

Alessia felt deeply terrified. Who was this man?! Why does it seem that all the handsome men are becoming strange around her?! Alessia thought to herself, but the strangeness didn't stop there because the man still held her waist tightly. She could feel something penetrating her skin and then she realised, he had used his long fingernails to cut through her, a drop of blood dropped on his index finger and he brought it closer to his lips, his eyes watching her deeply, like he was seeing her soul, then he licked his finger which had her blood on it.

Alessia's eyes widened at how long his fingernails were, but then they suddenly got shorter again. What the hell?! What a strange man! Who would want to lick a stranger's blood?! She watched him with widened eyes as he seemed to enjoy her blood and the intensity in his eyes grew.

" What...what do you think you're doing?! " She stuttered, unable to get her words.

"I should be asking you the same thing, what are you doing in this part of the building?!" He questioned, his eyes never leaving her figure.

" I...I was directed here to see the owner of the mall.." she answered his question like a robot, her eyes blinking furiously, trying to break away from his gaze. A smirk appeared on his lips and as he raised a hand to run it over his face, a big red ring caught Alessia's attention. It was glistening a deep dark red and almost looked like it was blood.

" Where did you get that ring from?! " She asked him curiously as she narrowed her eyes at him.

" Why are you asking?! Have you seen it somewhere?! " He asked with curiosity,

Alessia hesitated before replying, " No, I haven't. Just that it's so big and looks natural. "

" Why were you looking for the owner of the mall?! " He asked, changing the topic and taking some steps away from her as he felt some strange movement crawling down his body.

" There was a mix-up during the delivery and they forgot some of the things I ordered…" she explained.

"Well you're in the right place. My name is Kane and I'm the owner of this mall, so how can I help you?"

She had a surprised expression as she stared at him, unable to make up some words for a perfect sentence because she hadn't expected such a reply. He was a dim fit to be a CEO of a company, but what he had just done earlier made Alessia think the other way around about him.

What sensible man would lick the blood of a stranger?! She thought of him as a maniac…

And finally, she built up the courage and replied to him,

" I would like the mix-up to be sorted out, "
