Chapter 13: Lucas
Chapter 13
Lucas walked tentatively towards Alpha Charles' door. He hoped that his sudden impromptu visit to the alpha wouldn't cost him anything more than embarrassment. He had been patient enough to wait until Maya had left the room.
After taking a deep breath, he slowly turned the knob, and pushed the door slightly. He took a peek into the room, just to make sure that he was in the right room.
His eyes caught a glimpse of Alpha Charles as he lay on his bed, with his eyes closed in a restful state. Lucas felt his heart skip a beat as he saw his alpha, bare-chested, and peaceful.
He looked to his left, to his right and all around before he slipped into the room like a thief at night. The tip of his toes were beginning to hurt, as he stayed on them all through the whole secret operation.
Some moments after he had gotten in, he stood far from the bed looking at his alpha's body, trying his best to keep away from the lewd thoughts that paraded the corridors of his mind.
He was clinging on to the last string of his self-restraint at that point, as he would rather not get himself into trouble for doing that.
Charles was a Casanova to the best of his knowledge, and already had six women in his life, besides the other ones whom he had implored for pleasure in times past. Laying a hand on Charles would mean his death, and the end of all his unrealistic fantasies.
"Get a grip…" he whispered to himself, as his feet itched to walk towards where Charles lay, but he pinned his back against the wall which he stood against.
He was almost regretting why he had come to see his alpha in the first place, as he had put himself under unnecessary pressure to keep away from heading over to where his alpha lay.
In an instant, he felt the cord of his self-restraint as it snapped. At that point, it felt as though he wouldn't mind if getting his hands on Charles was the last thing that he would do before he died. Under the insane urges that he was being influenced by, he deemed it to be totally worth it.
He hesitantly put forth the first foot, as he walked towards the bed. Those steps felt heavy, as he knew that a whole lot was at stake, just for his lustful desires. In a moment, he was standing by his bedside, looking at Charles' sculpted body.
"Maya…" Charles muttered, as he turned his head in his sleep.
The mention of that name nauseated Lucas, as she was one of the major obstructions to Charles looking in his direction. She seemed to be his obsession every single day, and someone he couldn't live without.
Charles was still fast asleep, and somehow unaware of the person standing beside him. Lucas was relieved by that, as he put forth his hand over Charles's face, just to be sure that he wasn't awake.
"What are you doing?" Charles's eyes opened suddenly, forcing Charles to jilt backwards. "Lucas? I thought it was Maya that had walked in…"
"I'm sorry, I just came to check on you, and know how you were doing… nothing more," Lucas said, quivering frightfully. "I see you're much better than before, and that's great news…" he tried his best to do anything to take the frightful look off his face. He forced a smile up into his face.
"Why are you acting so weird?" Charles asked with a frown. He had been expecting Maya's face to be the first he would see when he woke up, and not that of his absurd beta. Why in the blue moon was he standing that close to his bed?
"Nothing really, I'm just overly excited to see that you're doing okay. For a moment, I was scared that you wouldn't be able to recover. Seeing the way that Maya helped you into your chamber had me scared, honestly," Lucas said, as he backed away from the bed.
He was feeling stupid for ever harboring the thoughts of laying a finger on his alpha. The look of disapproval on Charles's face made him want to run out of the room in shame.
As though that wasn't enough, the door came open, with Maya walking into the room and looking at Lucas with a frown on her face. She was dressed in a long sable coat, which was an unusual attire for staying indoors.
There was an awkward silence in the room after that.
"What are you doing here?" Maya inquired angrily from Lucas. "Did you send for him, alpha?"
"No, he didn't…" Lucas muttered. "I just came to see how he was doing, but I'm taking my leave now." He harbored a secret spite for her, which he intended to make known in due time. He headed out of the room and shut the door in disappointment.
"I'm sorry about that," Charles said, as he tried to sit up. "I had no idea when you stepped or when he stepped in."
"It's alright. I had to step out to freshen up a bit before I could come and keep you company," Maya said, walking towards him, and stopping by his bed side. "But now… I'm here to stay…"
She spoke, as she undid the belt holding the sable coat together, letting it all fall to the floor to let him feast her eyes on her nude body.
Charles stared in amazement. For a moment, all his worries eluded him.
On the other side of the door, Lucas as burning with anger and in the green flames of envy. He felt petty that he was feeling the same thing that the other queens were feeling towards Maya.
But then, he was still angry with her, and his mind was running with ways of getting even with her, even if he wouldn't be able to have Charles to himself. All he wanted was some sort of revenge.
"She just wait..." he mumbled to himself. "She won't know what hit her."
