Alpha Games

Chapter 31-Golden Party

Stretching out in the bed i realized for the first time in a while i was not being poked, shook or disturbed at all. I peeked one eye open then the other looking around my brightened room, I was indeed alone. Sitting up slowly i reached over to check the time on my phone and it was half past eleven in the morning! I haven't slept this late in forever, my stomach started to growl signaling i missed breakfast.

 I reluctantly pulled the covers away and placed my feet on the cold marble floor. My phone buzzed before i could make it to the dresser so i laid back across the bed on my stomach to see who was calling me. "Doll, how are you?" I smiled at my nickname and butterflies erupted in my stomach. 

"I actually just woke up, guess i needed the extra beauty sleep since i was not disturbed for once." I was so happy to hear his voice so i continued "Happy Birthday! How old are you now 43 or 44?" I laughed as i heard him snort. 

"Now doll you know i am not a day over 18, plus i know you like the older ones but you'll enjoy me since i've  the stamina of a racehorse!" He proudly stated as i heard a door closing on the other end. 

I couldn't help laughing at him, this guy always meant things sexually to me but in a funny flirty way. "Oh Max, you may be young and have the stamina but i believe you have to much experience for my taste. I like them older because they are well seasoned and educated to take their time. It's not about the race, its about the journey to get there." i cooed to him. 

It was his turn to laugh "Sarah, i am speechless and that doesn't happen often. You win this round doll, but next time ill be prepared to stun you with my wit." I only snorted at him as we continued our banter for another few minutes on each others wits. 

"Max, i'm sorry ill miss your birthday. I wish i would be there with everything in me, tonight i will look at the moon as soon as it is high in the sky. Will you look too and pretend we are together? I am really homesick, i have you as my home screen so you are always with me." i almost whined into the phone as i spoke. 

I heard him sigh as he replied "Doll, i'm looking at the sun now pretending to wake up in your bed with you in the light. To wrap you tight in my arms as you get up and pull you back to play away the rest of the day together. Thank you for the birthday wishes, the best birthday would be if i could spend it with you. I feel like i love you more every day, i miss you." 

I blushed and smiled at his words not noticing Sophia coming to the bedside until she jumped on the bed. "Sarah, are you finally awake? Who you talking to? Momma said i couldn't wake you until noon." I turned and smiled at her as i held the phone a little away from my mouth. "Well i will thank mom later, i am talking to Max right now." 

She giggled and made kissey faces at me as she said "OOoo is that your boyfriend! Are you going to marry him?" Her playfulness turned serious so fast it made me search for an answer to her question. "Max i will call you later, i hope you have a great day. I will be thinking about you all day." 

"Okay doll, tell the banshee i said hello and ill talk to you soon. Bye i love you." 

"I love you to Birthday boy! bye." 

I hung up the phone smiling like a love sick fool until i seen the look on my parents face. My father was scowling and my mother was covering her mouth hiding her smile that her eyes gave away. I shrugged and gave a cheesy grin as i stared back at them.

"No sense hiding what you already know daddy. Besides Max is the best choice for our realm anyway, i think everyone would agree plus he has his training as beta and i know he would allow me to lead. Can we just call off this silly Alpha Game and bless our union instead?"

My father growled as he replied "No, Sarah had he been the best choice i would have never suggested the alpha games in the first place. You deserve an Alpha of pure blood and strength not a beta who cannot keep his attention on one female at a time!" Ouch i though as i hung my head, i know i should defend Max but part of the accusation was true.
