Alpha’s Tormented Seductress

Alyssa finally lifted her head the moment she observed that the light still engulfed Liam who laid on the ground. She wondered what could have happened and the only explanation she could get was that someone might have come to help her.

“Did Nathaniel go get some help?” She asked herself silently, especially because she haven’t seen Nathaniel for a while now.

She lifted her head slowly again and that was when she observed something that replicated a light in her hands.

At first, she thought she had not seen clearly, but a closer look at herself indicated that it was her the light came from.

The aura emanated from both her hands and her chest and they flowed directly towards Liam who was now stirring slightly.

Liam was very weak and exhausted, but was not ignorant of what was currently going on. His thought of magic, because that was what it looked like.

It was strange to see a sudden burst of light that would encircle him and stand as a barrier…

He looked up and that was when he realized that the light was coming from Alyssa. He was shocked to his bones, but no one could come off his lips.

Liam observed the bizarre look on Alyssa’s face and he needed no one to tell him that she also had no idea of what had just happened.

Lucas was not left out in the shock and surprise. At some point, he thought that he was only hallucinating, but after flickering his eyes for countless times, he still caught sight of the aura of light that came from Alyssa.

He turned his gaze to his men who were now trying to turn the door knob. For some unknown reasons, the door knob couldn’t open.

There was a break of panic from his men who cried and pleaded for mercy. This angered Lucas who felt that they should be trying to grab Alyssa, rather than planning to escape.

“Are you all dumb? Get her!” Lucas screamed out of his lungs, but his men didn’t budge.

They were scared for their lives that their only wish at the moment was for them to find a means to leave the room.

Liam stood after he had gathered some strength. He staggered a bit, but he swiftly regained his balance. Alyssa took note of him and returned her gaze to the light emitting from her. She couldn’t say what it was or how she did it, but somehow, she directed the light to Lucas’s men.

“I want them blind for a moment”, she said and immediately, it was as though the light obeyed her.

One of Lucas’s men screamed and fell to the ground, yelping in pain and clinging to his eyes.

The next one followed and it went on like that till the last of his men who rolling on the ground and screaming.

“What is going on?” Lucas asked as he wiped the sweats that had formed on his forehead.

He was trying so hard to remain fearless, but the current state of his men was giving him away.

“I can’t see!” The head of his men shouted and for a minute, Lucas’s heart skipped.

“I think I’m blind. All I see is darkness!” Another men said and abruptly, Lucas started breathing heavily.

At first, he had made to think that it was only some tactics the men were pulling off to save themselves, but on a closer look, he needed no one to tell him that it was real.

“Alyssa! What are you doing?” Lucas asked with a shaky voice as he started taking some steps backwards.

He had thought that Alyssa was only a young girl who was naive and had no idea of how to fight or lift a finger. Seeing how swift she was with using a strange power to blind his men was a great cause of worry for Lucas.

Liam used Lucas’s fear as a weakness to strike. The only thing that was going to pacify him at the moment was ensuring that he killed Lucas. He had done a lot to Alyssa and nothing else was going to pacify him.

Not only did he ruin their wedding day by kidnapping Alyssa, he had also tried to have his way with her. Thoughts of that enraged Liam and like a flash of light, he picked up a knife and descended towards Lucas.

Lucas made to fight back. But then, he wasn’t fast enough since he got the first stab that moment. He groaned lightly and fell to the ground, looking at Liam who held no pity in his eyes.

Liam crouched low and stabbed him again, harder this time. And then, he did it over and over again until he was sure that Lucas had taken his last breath.

He let out a loud scream as blood dropped from the knife and down to the ground.

After a while, he threw the knife to the ground and looked at Alyssa who was gazing at him with clear shock in her eyes. She stared as though she have never witnessed something as cruel and blunt as that.

Liam couldn’t find words to utter, neither did he figure out how to feel about the situation. One thing he knew though was that he did what was best, because if he hadn’t done it, Lucas would have harmed any or both of them.

“Alyssa, I did what was best!” Liam explained as he tried to calm his raging heart. He still felt entirely weak, but he could swear that he felt a relieve in his heart.

Lucas was an enemy, and taking out an enemy was no crime.

Alyssa wanted to tell him that he did nothing bad. Lucas had also attempted to take Liam’s life and if he hadn’t killed him, he would have been the one to die instead.

She couldn’t hide her surprise though. She had emotions after all, and most times, they failed to hide themselves.

“Liam…I”, she was saying when she felt the first wave of dizziness.

She groaned and staggered lightly, holding her head that was beginning to throb.

She couldn’t tell if how she felt was as a result of the kidnap or what she had done some minutes ago, but one thing she was certain of was that she didn’t feel good.

She suddenly felt dizzy as she held her forehead and moved backwards, wondering why she was feeling strange and suddenly, utterly weak.

Her head was swirling terribly and she was beginning to feel as though life was slipping away from her. Despite how hard she tried, she couldn’t help it.

She made to open her eyes the moment she realized that if she leaves them shut, she may not open ever again. Her heart ached at that thought, but she didn’t know what to do about. She smiled calmly, to make Liam a lot more relaxed. He had just killed Lucas and she could tell that he was a bit shaken from the situation.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

But then, the more she smiled, the more she saw herself sleeping away. It seemed as though the world was tilting and she had no control of it. Again, she tried to resist it but it doesn’t work out and rather than fighting it, she submitted to it’s will. Slowly, she closed her eyes as darkness covered her…
