Chapter 4 A girl in his bed

Lilac awoke with a start, the pounding in her head matched only by the rapid beating of her heart. She felt disoriented and confused as she looked around the unfamiliar room. The sheets were tangled, and the room was dimly lit, but through the haze of her hangover, she could make out the form of a strange man lying next to her. She gasped in shock and recoiled, the memories of the previous night flooding back in a painful wave.

"T-they tricked me," Tears streamed down her face as she realized the implications of what had happened. She had been taken advantage of while she was vulnerable and helpless. She felt violated and ashamed. She searched frantically for her clothes, unable to look at the man lying next to her. He was the same man Kate called the alpha.

"I... I should go," she tried to move, but unfortunately the man shifted and ended up placing his arm over her fragile body. She spotted her clothes on the floor closer to the bed. She could crawl there. Kate took her crutches. Even if she wanted to leave, she couldn't do it.

"Mmm" she heard groans coming from the man. Fear washed over her, she had to hide. But before she could do that, the man spoke.

"Who the heck are you?" He growled, startling her, his voice was deep and carried authority. Lilac tried to hide her face. But in one go. The man grabbed her by the shoulders and turned her around.

"Who are you?" He asked again, he seemed desperate to see her. His sharp blue eyes held rage, she lowered herself out of shame. Gripping the sheets closer to her even more.

"P-please sir...let me go," she cried out, knowing a big mistake was made. The man before her, who was none other than Alejandro, frowned. How did a girl end up in his bed and room?

"Leave this room this instant...or I'll rip you apart," the man growled angrily, making Lilac flinch, she nodded nervously and struggled to get away from him. She felt disgusted, especially seeing blood all over the bed.

On the other hand, Alejandro was having a fit. His eyes shone with murder intent. He watched as the girl crawled out of bed. Didn't she know how to walk? How dare she. How did this happen.

"Damn this," he muttered as he ran his hands over his face? He scanned himself and the bed. He did it. He slept with a strange girl.

"Get out!" he growled when he noticed something. The girl was crawling on the floor. He prompted on his elbows to see what she was doing. She was naked. He tossed some sheets on her. How disgusting. He snorted silently and grabbed his clothes.

"I would rather not see your ugly face," he should have been careful. How did he get like that, let out multiple curses, he got out of bed and wore his sweatpants? Glancing at the girl once last time, he proceeded to the bathroom.

(Lilac)

My mind was a mess, I was doomed. I slept with a man I didn't know. As I dressed in silence, my mind raced with a hundred thoughts and questions. What had happened between us? Was I safe? I knew that the answers were unlikely to bring me any comfort, but I couldn't help but feel a sense of desperation at the unknown. Tears streamed in my face even more as I crawled away. How was I going to leave the bed?

"Alex we..." The door opened, and I was startled when Esme walked in...she stopped upon seeing me on the floor. Did they plan this? That man was barbaric, a heartless monster. He used me and that was their fault.

"Did you do it...where is my brother," she asked in a hushed tone while looking towards the bathroom door. I didn't answer her, my heart was heavy. She seemed excited as if what she wanted to happen took place.

"Brother! Where are you?" Esme started shouting, shortly after, the door opened and the man emerged. I was sitting in the same place. With the sheets wrapped around my fragile body. The man came out, his movements were animalistic. There was no smile on his face. His hair was messy, but even so. He was exceptionally good-looking.

"Get this girl out of here and make sure no one..." the man said sternly as soon as he walked out. I averted my eyes from him, afraid of what he was going to do to me. He made a mistake, not me.

"Bro, that can't happen...but calm down... I'll get her out," the lady said nervously and came to help me up. I didn't want this, but all I wanted was to get away.

"Come on," she muttered and started helping me up. I complied and did as told. With much difficulty, I managed to stand, although without my crutches it was hard. I couldn't walk by myself, but the lady came to help me up

We stumbled out of the room, barely acknowledging the man as we left. The world outside was bright and harsh, and I couldn't help but think that my life would never be the same again.

The lady took me to the previous room they kept me in.

"Stay here and wait... I'll fix this," she said, and let me sit on the bed. I was stunned how she seemed so anxious. Did they plan this? Only then did I realize something. These people hired a girl to get in their brother's bed. But why?

"This can't be," I was doomed. I wasn't the girl for this. They mistook me for another. I needed to explain to them. But the lady was gone, and my crutches were nowhere to be seen.
