C2 CHAPTER 2

Marty, Miss"she bowed acknowledging Eve and I

I have given her a firm warning not to address me with formalities

"Your mate awaits your presence" she said directing the news to Eve

"Oops I have to run along,Mateo needs me"

"I will be back by noon,get ready we are getting you a dress today "

"I don't think Dad will allow me go out "

"Look for a way,Bye" she hastily walked out.

I sighed, One day it will be me getting all giddy just by hearing my mate's name.

I told my Dad about the shopping

"Dad I..I would like to go shopping with Eve ahead of the event" I bowed my head, shivering in fear

"There will be no need for that, I already got a stylist for you and Alisa,she will be here soon,all you need to do is select your choice and she will get you ready on that day"

"And varieties will be available to choose from "

I sighed. I knew this would be his response but why must I do this with Alisa

That girl has a foul mouth,she has a capability of inflicting pain on people with her tongue .

I silently prayed to the moon Goddess for Alisa not to pick on me.

Eve kept to her word and came back by noon. She was so disappointed when I told her of my father's decision but she insisted on following me to make a choice of outfit.

"Marty, the stylist is here" Kathy announced

"Oh! Let her in"

"Sorry Alisa already took her to the dressing room,she said you can come over to meet them if you want "

"Ok thanks,you can go"

"Is she serious, we have to go over and meet her.That is disrespectful "Eve blew hot

"Is fine let's just go "

She reluctantly followed me, cursing under her breath,I chuckled when I noticed that

The overprotective nature of my Dad sometimes makes me wonder if they is a secret behind it.my suspicion heightened when I overheard him arguing with his mate over it

" You can't keep locking her in,let her explore like her peers" Helen fumed

"There is a reason for this,she is not supposed to be wandering about "

"How about you share that reason with me "

"You don't even like her,why are you advocating for her"

"That's the main reason I want her out,she is always in my face"

"I don't want to talk about this anymore "

When I heard footsteps approaching the door,I scrambled out in a haste .

I was always confined in the house.i get whatever I want and in return I act like a dutiful daughter and do whatever am told.The only time am allowed to go out is to run and my dad always stationed three or more guards with me

It was frustrating.

Alisa held a dress , when we got in

She was flaunting it at us , Alisa is a petite girl,she could pass as a model,her blonde hair making her tanned skin glow to me, she was a beauty queen

Eve always shut me up when I say it out loud, she always likes to remind me that I was sexy and more appealing than Alisa

Eve sure dislikes Alisa

"Hi, am Anna,I will be your stylist for the coming event" The hairstylist introduced herself to us

I shook her hands formally and smiled

I noticed she was fidgeting and am sure Alisa has a hand in it.she must have bullied the poor woman

I held her hands this time passionately,she slowly raised her head and smiled at me. I squeezed her hands gently. I noticed this little gesture made her more comfortable.

" You sure are a sight to behold" Anna said

"I know right,I've been told countless times " Alisa responded without even sparing a glance at us ,she was tossing clothes she didn't like all over the room

I shook my head lightly at Anna when she wanted to correct her that the compliment was for me.

If she does that we all will get an earful

"Wow ,I am sure this will look amazing on you"Eve shouted excitedly, she held a black diamond engraved dress.

It was shining even in the daytime

"Yeah it's beautiful but the length is too short"

"You friend sure has a great taste" Anna compliment

"It suits your body type , don't worry about the length"

"Try it on let's see if it needs anymore adjustments"

Suddenly ,we heard a huff and the door banged loudly,Alisa left the room for reasons best known to her.

I looked back at Eve but she just rolled her eyes and urged me to go get dressed

"Woah you look great,the dress suit like it was made just for you" Eve compliment,the smile on her face was heavenly

"Take a look at it yourself "

I stared at myself in the mirror, my curves stood out as if on a parade show. The dress hugged my body like a second skin. Truly the dress was gorgeous

The only problem was the length,Eve swatted my hand away when I tried to pull it down a bit.

Finally we were done with the outfit selection,we padded Anna goodbye and she left with a promise of coming back to get me ready on the event day.

Living in this house has been my greatest setback. I needed somebody who would take me out of here. Eve has always been there for me, anytime she is ready to go out and I ask for permission .

I have a very strong hunch that there must be a reason, a very solid one for my dad's behavior towards me going out but I couldn't place my hands on it.

The event was fast approaching, the preparations all in motion and almost done, the Alpha King must be a very special and strict person .

I kept thinking about how the outcome of the Alpha visit will be, I just hope nobody loses their life at the expense of his arrival.

He sure was a wicked person if even my father was terrified about his visit.
