Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker - Chapter 43: Chapter 43

Freda POV
My eyes were covered by Allen’s warm and big palm and I could only see a faint light coming through his slender fingers. The sudden darkness didn’t make me feel scared at all. Instead, I felt warm and secure. I could sense the heat of Allen’s hand and his body heat wrapped me around warmly.
I couldn’t hear alpha Levi roaring at me anymore.
But until the car was started, Allen still hadn’t put down his hand.
I couldn’t help but chuckled, “I’m not that vulnerable, Allen, you can put down your hand now.”
Allen didn’t listen to me and still kept covering my eyes, which made me feel like I was being held in his arms. I gently took his hand and saw those people from the Fullmoon Pack through the car window and that tall figure not far away. I didn’t care anymore and laughed, “It’s fine. I’ve always known what kind of person my father is and he will give up on me when it comes to his interests. So I’m not hurt by his words at all. I’m stronger than that.”
Allen paused for a while and then withdrew his hand, pursing his lips, “Okay.”
“But thank you anyway.”
Cam grunted in my head, “Come on, you were really touched by his gestures just then. Why are you acting so cool about it? You don’t have to hold back your feelings all the time. Let’s kiss him hard to thank him just like that day.”
I tried not to argue with Cam and locked her in my mind to cool down my head. Then I asked, “Why did you come here? I’ve got Richard.”
“Richard? He’s the same as me?” Allen sneered, “if I hadn’t sent people to guard you in advance instead of waiting for you outside like a fool, it would’ve been much harder to get you out of there.”
He was right…
If Allen hadn’t come just in time, there was no way Cam and I could get away from those lunatics safe and sound.
I had no choice but to nod, “Okay, you two are different.”
Allen gave me a subtle smile that was hard to detect.
Someone coughed at the front seat and Richard awkwardly turned around and said, “Should I cover my ears?”
Oh my god! I forgot there were other people in the car and it was Richard who we had been talking about all this time. I suddenly felt embarrassed and Allen just coldly rolled up the partition and blocked Richard’s playful gaze. For other people, what we did looked like flirting.
There was a weird tension mounting in the car.
I had to change the subject to break the ice, “By the way, you told me you had a gift for me this morning. Is it the video that was played on the screen?”
I didn’t prepare the consent for abortion that was signed by Natasha and those pictures of her and Carl looking intimate. After some time of thinking, I realized only Allen could pull it off.
“Yeah,” Allen nodded, “are you happy with the gift? Do you feel better now?”
“Yes, I love this gift and I do feel better now.” Thinking about the look on Natasha’s face, I was more than happy, “You have no idea how funny they looked. It was the first time for me to see Olivia panic like that. If there weren’t so many people there, she would’ve definitely come at me and stopped acting nice. Natasha was the same. She got all dressed up today and I heard Carl planned to propose to her today. But none of them expected that…”
“I’m not a puppet and I won’t let them pull the strings.” I didn’t know why I became so talkative in front of Allen and I even started gabbling about what happened at the banquet as if Cam had taken control of my body. After realizing that, I laughed awkwardly, “Sorry. I was being too loud.”
But Allen was just listening quietly and naturally reached out his hand to fix my hair. He smiled at me with those golden eyes and said, “No, you made it sound hilarious.”
“But thank you anyway, for the gift at the banquet and coming here to save me just in time,” I said sincerely.
However, he kept staring at me with his golden eyes and his voice was deep and charming and sounded more seductive than ever in this narrow space.
“Then do I get a prize for that?” Allen looked at me bluntly and then fixed his eyes on my lips, implying something else.
A prize…
“Go kiss him! Right now!” Cam couldn’t help it anymore and she came into my head again.
I held her back and my heart was racing like crazy. I couldn’t help but turn to him and stare at his sexy lips. I still remember the taste of his lips and I felt like I could smell his peppermint scent of him which was like a breeze in the forest. It blew away all the sadness and rage hidden deep in my heart and right now all I could see was Allen.
“Is there a prize for me?” Allen looked at me with a subtle smile and his voice was tempting and sexy.
I pursed my lips and couldn’t help thinking about that kiss on that delirious night. I had to admit that kiss did feel great…
Stop it.
What were you thinking!?
I hastily looked away and subconsciously said, “We’re not alone here.”
Allen paused for a few seconds and chuckled while looking at me significantly, “So it’s okay for me to do that when we’re alone.”
“I’ve never said that…” I realized something was off. Allen only said that he wanted a prize but he never said it was a kiss. What was I talking about?! “No, you misunderstood. That’s not the prize I meant.”
“So what do you think was on my mind?”
I froze and didn’t know how to make this sound right. I knew I was blushing right now and Allen just kept looking at me. I glared at him and then looked out the window.
“Never mind. Your happiness is my greatest prize.”
That sounded like sweet talk that only lovers would say but Allen said that with a straight face and he sounded even more sincere. Where did this man learn to do all this? He kept sweet talking me as if someone had taught him how to do that. A few days ago, he was still stiff and serious.
Something crossed my mind.
I turned to look at Allen and asked, “Where did you learn to do all this sweet talking and nice gestures? Who taught you these?”
Allen stopped smiling and looked away, pretending everything was fine, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
But I could see his ears blushing right now.
