Her Heartless Alpha

What are we?

Isabella looked almost lifeless as she walked back home. She's had many things to dwell on before, but she couldn't have ever imagined something as big as this. Her own son...He had powers! After everything that has happened, believing it was that easy for her...like who in her shoes wouldn't? His father-whoever he was wasn't human, and Dave was turning into him.

Isabella grabbed unto the wall, her legs getting weaker with every step. How was she gonna do with all of these problems now?! What is gonna happen to her? Who's out there that's gonna help her through all this? She's always done everything alone, but right now her head was gonna blow up.

She had a pounding headache, and she couldn't see well. Everytime she raised her head, the pain would intensify and she would quickly look back to the ground. She managed to keep on going till she got to the house.

"Miss Watson " A feminine voice called out to her.

She Couldn't look up to see who it was, she couldn't bare the pain.

"Miss Watson? " The voice was closer, and once the person was in a range of view she could see, she saw Ciara standing there staring at her with worried filled eyes.

"What's wrong? Are you okay? " She walked over to her and helped her stand well. Ciara had seen her since she stepped out of the other house like this, and she couldn't bare to just leave the woman. She was gonna try and also understand things from Bella's point of view. Bella wasn't a bad person.

"Drive me around town. " Bella said, hissing out in pain.

Ciara quickly helped her into the car and took off to the nearest clinic. After getting her drugs and helping her take them, she returned to her duty of driving around time, going at an average speed that wouldn't stir the poor woman sitting behind her. Ciara watched her through the car mirror, as she slowly recovered and her breathing finally evened up.

They had been driving for over an hour now, just going around town. Ciara wondered what was going through Bella's head right now, all this must be hard for her.

"When did you get here? " Bella asked softly, her head lying on the car seat.

"I came to see how you were doing after you fainted last night " Ciara replied, eyes on the road.

" Oh, thank you"

"Don't mention " Then she Looked at her through the rear mirror, "how are you feeling now? "

" A lot better than before, and it's all thanks to you"

" Of course. What are Friends...chaffeurs for?" Ciara bit her lips. What were they?

" True. What are Friends for" Bella smiled, and Ciara let out a breath she had been holding. She couldn't explain it, but she really liked this women-whoever she was. She could be herself around her, and her mind was at peace too. The same also applied to Bella.

"Would you like to continue the drive? " Ciara inquired.

"We've been at it for a while now. I think it's time I get back home " Isabella replied. This wasn't her car, and it definitely wasn't her fuel. When she had seen Ciara back at the house, the first thing that had jumped into her mind was that she wanted a drive instead of going to bed and being alone...and then more thoughts would flood her mind. She hoped the drive would at least reduce the way she thinks, and thanks to Ciara here ..she was feeling much better.

Ciara dropped her home, and they both walked into the house. James was in the sitting room, making a call but when he sighted them he made his way there with concern.

"I've been trying to reach you. What happened? "

" She wasn't feeling too well sir, so I took her out for a little drive" Ciara replied.

" What?" James placed the back of his palm on her forehead. It was still a bit hot, and her face looked pale, "We need to get you to the hospital " he said worriedly.

"Don't bother " Bella shook her head in disagreement, " I already went to the clinic and got some drugs, I'll be just fine with a little more rest"

He contemplated for a few seconds, then finally gave in "Fine, let's take you to bed " He held her by the arm and helped her to the room, leaving Ciara standing alone. If this had happened yesterday, she would have easily left both of them. But they aren't siblings!!

Also, she's lived long enough to be able to differentiate the look in people's eyes. And from the way he had stared at Bella from the moment they walked in, she could easily tell that feelings were attached.

The man clearly had feelings for her, she could read it in his every move, and that's the more reason why she just can't leave them alone...so she followed them to the room.

Bella wanted to keep sleeping, but the voice in the background wouldn't shut up!. The sunlight was already streaming in through the window, but she refused to get out of bed. Getting out of bed meant facing her problems once again, and she felt too lazy to do so now. She just wanted to have a normal life like every other person!

"Yes, Boss would be taking off this morning. Only five of us, plus our top betas know about this " the voice was getting clearer and clearer and in her ears.

" Maybe in the next thirty minutes or so, I guess"

"Who knows where he's headed to, I bet Dawn and Silva have no idea too "

" Well, of course he's boarding a private plane. He's a billionaire, the CEO of Kingston industries"

" Anyways, I'll talk to you later. I gotta leave before she wakes up"

Bella was as quiet as she could be. She was now fully awake and had heard everything. That voice was definitely Ciara's, and there's only one CEO of Kingston industries she knows about...

Her eyes shot open, and she jumped out of bed as fast as she could. Eyes wide open, Ciara stood there in shock watching the woman she thought had been asleep all this while. She had been a hundred percent sure that Bella had been asleep two minutes ago, and she had been whispering as she made that call.

"What do you mean he's taking off ? " Bella inquired, her heart drumming inside her chest.

" Wh..what?"

"You were talking about Adrian, weren't you? Where is he going to this morning? How come I know nothing about this? "

Ciara couldn't say a word.

" He can't leave. He can't leave just like that. Take me to him, take me to him now!!" Bella breathed, desperation all over her voice.

" Miss Watson, I don't know what you're talking..."

" Don't!" Bella suddenly glared at her, " I heard everything. I know Adrian Kingston. I know him, he can't leave like this. For how long would he be gone? I need to see him, drive me to him right this second!" Bella grabbed unto her shoulders, squeezing. She didn't know how to start explaining things, she didn't even have time to explain anything to anyone. She was angry right now, she was confused, her blood was pushing through her veins, and the pounding in her head still lurked, "I'm begging you, take me to him please, please! " Her eyes softened, and tears gathered in his eyes.

"I..I... "

"Don't do this to me. Just take me to him, I have something to tell him before he leaves " Bella then stared directly into Ciara's eyes, letting the heavy emotions swirling through them do the talking. Ciara got trapped inside her grey eyes for a second there, and her heart began to ache. Few things moved her in this world, and this woman could be considered as one of those. Her eyes said many things, the tears running down her cheeks spoke too.

"Let's go then" Ciara replied and they dashed out of the house, hopped into the car and zoomed off.

Ciara drove as fast as she could, seeing her restless the woman beside her was. She has asked herself times without number what she was doing! What was she doing? She was crazy to actually be doing this. Adrian is the most scary and fearful person she's ever met in her entire life, he was extremely powerful and if he ever finds out she went against him... She couldn't even begin to imagine the things he would do to her before he finally disposes of her.

Her hands were trembling as she got closer and closer to his private airport where he was gonna take off this morning to only God knows where. She badly wanted to turn the car around, but whenever she looked at the woman beside her whose eyes were focused on the road, years still flowing down like a river... She would steel her mind once more.

She could see herself driving to her death. Once she comes into his range of sensing, Adrian would immediately know she's close.

That was bad. Too bad.

"Are we gonna make it? " Bella asked, her voice barely coming out.

"Let's hope we do " Ciara replied.

The plane was ready to take off, and Adrian was walking up the stairs to head inside... When his nose caught that Rosy scent of hers. He stopped Midway, a little perplexed. How... Did she get here? He never told her he was travelling this morning.

No! He's gonna pretend he didn't notice her presence. No matter what she would just have to go back. Right now, they were in the open space planes usually took off from into the sky, and the cold breeze had been blowing since morning.

Before he could take one more step, her voice yelled through the open space.

"Adrian...stop!!! "

She sounded weak. He could tell she was. He wasn't looking her way, but he could clearly see her. She wasn't putting on thick clothing to protect her from the cold, and she kept staggering as she walked... Was she sick?

But, why should he care?? He continued his way into the plane.

"Wait!! Please wait!! " Her weaker voice came through again.

He didn't listen. He would be inside the plane before she catches up to him. He has things to deal with.

"Don't you dare take another step!! " Her warning and intensity made his pause for a second, but he continued anyways.

"Stop, would you? I only have a question to ask before you leave. Just one! Can you just listen to me??" She sounded so desperate, her voice pleading.. holding on to that tiny hope that he would at least listen to her even if it was for five seconds.

He didn't. And he walked into plane.

"No!! " She yelled, and continued to run towards the plane with the little remaining strength of hers. The stairs were already being lifted back in, and she doubted if she would make it before the plane would take off and start moving.

She wanted to know, she wanted to know at least. She wanted to know that much... She wanted to know by any means! "What are we??! " She screamed, as the plane began to move just before she got there. She tried to run with it, but that was the limit to her weakened body. Her legs gave out and she stumbled and fell.

"What are we Adrian? What are we?? Tell me! Please, I can't.. " she gulped, completely out of breath, her heart heavy " I've fallen in love with you, Adrian! Just tell me what we are??" She cried out at the very end once the plane was already up in the sky. Please, please...

After a few seconds, she got a reply.
