THE ALPHA'S VIRGIN SLAVE: Submit Alpha Ian's curse - Chapter 336: Chapter 336

Tanya's POV
I glanced at him, then focused on the road, feeling conflicted. A few minutes ago, he looked like he wanted nothing to do with me. To be honest, he looked like he wanted to avoid me at all costs. He couldn't even gaze at me or just look at me for more than a minute. I felt bad over his actions, but I chose not to show it or say anything.
But now, looking at him, he seemed very different and his voice sounded a little deeper. Not only was he not taking his eyes off of me, he couldn't stop smiling at me.
"So you are twenty?" He asked as my heart picked up.
That was the question I wanted to avoid for some reason. I was afraid of how he would react if he knew how old I was.
No, he was my mother's lover. Why was I even thinking like that?
"I'm turning eighteen soon," I answered nervously and then glanced at him to see his expression.
He was no longer smiling at me, and that made me feel sad. I quickly pulled to the side and parked the car.
"What, was it a turn-off for you?" I asked loudly and then gasped, moving my hand to my mouth.
Why was I acting so desperate for this man's attention?
He shifted his gaze to the side in silence.
So that was it?
Why was I so stupid? I could have easily lied, yet I didn't. I was so laughable.
"You are a kid, huh," he whispered softly. I dropped my hand and glared at him.
"I am a teenager, and that doesn't mean I'm a kid. You are making it sound as if you are an old grandpa in a toddler's car," I answered jokingly.
When he looked at me, I noticed how his eyes were back to their natural color.
"That's because I really am an old grandpa. I'm in my late forties," he answered with a sad expression on his face.
I kept quiet for a second, thinking about how it wasn't a big deal.
He looked nothing like his age, yet I believed his words easily. Me, from a year ago, would have laughed in his face and called him all types of harsh names.
Was my attraction to him that deep that I wanted to make him smile and laugh whenever he looked hurt or sad? I also genuinely concerned about him back in the apartment.
"It's not a big deal, I like older men," I lied, then smiled widely to cheer him up.
"I know it's not a big deal because your mother and I aren't that much apart in age," he answered as my smile faded.
It wasn't the first time he brought up my mother in our conversation. It was because she was who he loved, yet it felt terrible hearing it from his own lips.
"You are right," I said in a low tone and then started the car, following his past directions.
Why, just why? I asked myself over and over in my mind.
Was I finally pent up with sexual tension for being a virgin all those years? Or was I going crazy?
Since I hit puberty, I had a lot of male attention, that even my father had his guard up in protecting me. Men usually tried to woo me with gifts and charming looks, yet there was never a day I gave in.To me, they were all average and annoying as hell. I even began to think I wasn't straight. I watched my friends make out and still felt nothing.
I was broken, or so I thought, and I was going to stay that way until he appeared in front of my mother's door, and everything changed.
I knew how badly I wanted him from our first encounter. I wanted to go out with him on a date and just hold his hand.
I could tell he was older than me, but that didn't bother me at all. Even now, after finding out he was way older than what I had thought, I still wanted him.
When my mother introduced us, I felt my heart ache, and I thought how everything was over before they could even begin, until I noticed how he was acting towards me.
If he felt no attraction towards me, then why was he avoiding me when he was just a total stranger?
There really was something between us, and he felt it too. It was like he was trying to shut it off and yet failing so terribly at it.
From that point on, I cared less if he was my mother's lover or not. Yes, I was messed up, but I couldn't help myself.
"Here, park right in front of that blue house," he instructed, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Okay," I answered and did as he had instructed.
"Thank you," he said and then opened the door and got out.
I quickly unbuckled my seat belt and got out, rushing to his side before he could move.
I stood in front of him with a rapidly beating heart.
"Please, before you leave, there is something I want to ask you," I said seriously.
"Fine, what is it?" he asked.
"I will be returning to Dad's place tomorrow," I said and then continued to speak.
"So I thought I should say everything I thought of, and that includes how I feel, because there is a chance we may not see each other soon," I said softly.
"Ask already," he ordered seriously.
"Do you or do you not feel this attraction between us whenever we touch? There are also these beautiful tingles I experience?" I asked.
He looked surprised for a second and then he brushed his hand on his face.
"Please answer me," I whispered.
He dropped his hand and then leaned in, grabbing my hand in his.
"What I feel or don't feel doesn't matter because I am going to marry your mother soon," he answered and then let go of my hands.
So that was all he was going to say? If he wasn't going to be honest at least once, then I wasn't sorry for what I was about to do even if it meant him pushing me to the ground or yelling at me.
I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and then tiptoed and pressed my lips against his.
He widened his eyes in shock and froze.
"There, at least I'll have no regrets or feel sad being apart," I said when I had slightly pulled back.
I was about to completely pull back when his arms went around my waist and his eyes turned a golden yellow.
"That was a child's kiss," he whispered in a deep, husky voice.
I was about to tell him how sorry I was when he crushed his lips against mine, startling me as he thrust his tongue in. I powerlessly closed my eyes and intertwined my tongue with his while trying so hard to breathe.
I had no idea what I was doing; all I knew was that it felt very good.
When he pulled back, I breathed heavily with tears filling my eyes. I didn't want him to stop or pull back.
"What the fuck?" A lady's voice yelled.
I quickly turned and looked at her.
Her car was parked in front of us, and she had just stepped out with a very shocked look on her face. There were three other people in her car, and they looked very shocked as well.
"Felix, it's not what it looks like," August said at the top of his voice.
"The fuck it is," she exclaimed and then looked at me from head to toe.
"Are you cheating on Teresa with a kid?" She asked in nearly a scream.
"What was all that crap about her being your one and only ray of light?" She asked.
"Well I wasn't speaking crap and no I am not cheating on her," he answered as I turned and faced him.
He looked so conflicted and angry for some reason and it was all my fault.
I turned back to the lady and forced a smile on my face.
"I was the one that seduced him. I'm Teresa's child yet I felt jealous when I found out that such a sexy man was going to be my step father. To be honest I am a proud slut who can't resist a good looking man. I would gladly sleep with....,"
"Stop that!" August yelled in what sounded like a growl.
I turned and looked at him sadly. He looked even more furious than before. Why couldn't he see that I was trying to help him out of the mess I had created.
"She might have initiated the kiss, but I contributed by kissing her back," he said, surprising me.
"What the hell!" The lady exclaimed.
"You see, her being Teresa's child is the truth but the part of her being a slut is all a lie, because she confessed to never being attracted to anyone before me," he said as I blinked back the tears that were forming.
Why did his words make me feel so happy? Just him believing in my words meant a lot.
"Oh my goodness, are you fucking her, kid?" The lady asked as the passengers in her car opened the car door and came out.
"Felix, I'm sure there is a good explanation for all this," a man with red hair tried to reason with her.
"What explanation would justify such a horrible deed?" She asked.
"Well... Well...," he hesitated.
"Out with it, August! What is the reason?" Another guy demanded.
"She's my mate," he whispered, confusing me.
So he was going to introduce me as his friend? It wasn't as bad as I had thought.
For a second, I thought he was going to come up with a lie, saying everything was a prank.
"Oh my goodness, are you telling us the truth right now?" The lady asked in a softer tone.
"Do I look like I'm enjoying this conversation?" He yelled.
"Oh shit," she whispered.
"Tanya, can you please go back for now. If it's possible, tomorrow before you leave, I will come and say goodbye," he said softly and then smiled.
I wanted to refuse but at the same time do what he wanted me to do.
"Why do I have a feeling that you won't come and say goodbye?" I asked sadly.
"I will come and say goodbye, please believe me," he answered.
"Okay," I whispered and then turned and looked at everyone.
"I am so sorry about this misunderstanding," I said and then went to the car and got in.
I looked at August for a minute, then started the car and drove away.
I still wanted to believe in his words, that's why I was going to wait for him tomorrow before leaving.
