@alizaa91 at it again with making me this awesome book cover!! Probably, cause I'm so lazy and if I tried, it'll be so bad. Again, thanks to her! This chapter is dedicated to her. Go check out her book 'Tilted Crowns' and give her a follow.
1. Drunk Nights
2 Weeks Later
Theodore's P.O.V.
"3! 2! 1!" The girls scream and down their eighth tequila shot. I lean against the island and watch Alexandra sway her hips to the music, stumbling a little. She turns her head and meets my eyes, smirking. I smile, taking a sip of my beer while Alexander takes a seat next to me.
"Any news on when we're leaving for Asteria?" I ask him, keeping my eyes on Alexandra. He follows my gaze and sighs.
"Yeah, in two days," he answers, "It's been hard for her, Theo. Knowing that mom's alive."
"I know."
"And I know that it's hard for you too. You're gonna have to see your parents again." Alexander mentions and I give him a hard look.
"I know that, too. I saw them at the wedding. Didn't end as my father expected. Now, he'll be thrilled to know I'm coming back." I say sarcastically, rolling my eyes.
"Does he?" Alexander asks, grabbing himself a bottle of beer.
"Nope." I down my glass and set it on the island, leaning my elbows against it, continuing to eye Alexandra. I know I shouldn't be. But I can't help it. She just looks so damn sexy in that short -very short- black dress. She probably wore it on purpose, considering the sly smirk she's giving me right now. I give her a look, a lustful one, and she bites her lip, looking away.
"Surprise visit, then."
"Yeah. I still can't believe he has your mother." I ponder aloud, furrowing my brows.
"Me neither but if he does, we're getting her back." Alexander promises, finishing his beer.
"Why, though? Why capture her in the first place? What did she do? He doesn't take people and lock them in a dungeon without reason. He's not that kind of person." I wonder, mostly to myself.
"But he is the kind person to kill your first love." Alexander challenges and I glare at him.
"Don't start, Alex." I give him one of those Alpha looks and he backs down. I get up from my seat and make my way over to Alexander, who is currently having the time of her life being drunk and dancing on the dance floor. She laughs, raising another shot and downing it. I grab her hand, pulling her off the floor and up the stairs.
"Hey! I was having fun back there, why'd you have to ruin it?" She giggles, clearly happy about what's happening.
Once we reach her room, she shuts the door and grabs my shirt, pulling me in for a deep and heated kiss. Her lips taste like tequila but I don't mind it one bit and place my hands on her hips, bringing her closer.
