Sold To An Alpha

"Time to stress those knuckles of yours." He smirked, and an evil smile formed on James' lips.

"It's been a long time since I hacked security cameras." A deep breath escaped James' nose and they ambled back to their hiding place to pick up their bag.

James unzipped it and pulled out his laptop, then he squatted down and laid the laptop down on the concrete ground.

"How long will this take? It's getting dark already. " Victor asked as his eyes glanced up at the shady sky, which was gradually being taken over by darkness.

"It will take a while..." James replied, his eyes focused on the laptop.

Leia and Kiesha stared at their reflections in the mirror, and their eyes couldn't help but flutter in amazement.

They look so different, haha... almost exactly like the two ladies. Makeup does wonders. They shook their heads in awe, and Kiesha turned to gaze at her sister.

"Maya, you are... something else." Kiesha shook her head dramatically and spread her arms to pull her sister into a hug.

Maya's eyes darted around, and she smiled sheepishly in embarrassment. Well, she always feels quite embarrassed, mixed with happiness, when someone praises her.

"Gosh, you literally just transformed us into someone else." Kiesha perked her on the cheek and drew back from the embrace.

"Thank you." Leia turned to Maya and smiled at her.

"You're welcome." Maya nodded and began to pack her things into her backpack.

"You... can go home by yourself, right?" Kiesha raised her brow and asked, with concern looming on her face.

"Yes." Maya nodded and slipped her backpack onto her back, then with one last smile and nod at the two, she waved goodbye to them and walked out of the apartment, then made her way downstairs and ambled out of the building.

"Time to get ready." Leia nudged Kiesha on her arm and proceeded towards the backpack strapped to the couch.

She unzipped it and threw a set of nurse's clothing at Kiesha, then took hers and made her way to the bathroom.

It took a few minutes before they were completely ready, dressed up in blue nurse's pants and top. They glanced at each other and waited for another few minutes for any instructions from the victor.

"Guys... I just remembered something." Victor's voice abruptly reverberated in their ears, and they glanced at each other.

"What is it?" Leia asked, with bewilderment evident on her face.

"Once, during the time your mum was still being hospitalized, I asked my dad how your mum's treatment was going. He told me he was no longer in charge of your mother's treatment-"

"What do you mean?" Leia's face altered in utter confusion as she immediately asked.

"He said that the next person in command, which is my uncle Fernando, was the one in charge of your mother's treatment."

"That's impossible! Nobody informed me about that! " Leia shook her head in disbelief. It was impossible! She was not notified about that! She was clearly told that Victor's father was in charge of her mother's treatment.

"That's what my dad told me. Right now, I don't think we should invade my father's computer; rather, we should go to my uncles. This is the only chance we have, and we can't lose it. I know my father will never lie to me." Victor stated with absolute certainty, evident in his tone.

A deep breath escaped Leia's nose, and she turned to glance at Kiesha.

Keisha nodded at her and she nodded back. "Alright, it's a change of plan then." 

"Great... We are almost done. You guys have to be here in thirty minutes." Victor said before he went silent.

Leia let out a low breath and turned to Keisha. "Let's go." She said and proceeded out of the apartment with Kiesha following behind.

....

The sky has become completely dark, with a half-moon and thousands of stars beautifying it.

Leia slowed down the SUV near the hospital, and her eyes narrowed as she stared intently at the entrance.

"Vic, we are coming in." She said, and Victor approved of their starting to make their way into the hospital.

Leia turned to Kiesha and reached out her hand to receive a stethoscope, a long, slim book, and a black wig to wear. Well, the white nurse had long black hair, so... she needed to wear one.

They hung the stethoscope around their neck and stepped down from the car with the book lying in their arms.

A deep breath escaped Kiesha's nose, and with one last glance at each other, they began to make their way towards the entrance of the hospital.

They lowered their heads slightly, and with a push of the glass door, they stepped in.

The vast compartment with people going up and down came into view, and Leia's eyes couldn't help but flutter. Her hand balled into a tight fist as a scene from the day her mother died flashed through her mind.

She took deep breaths and, together with Kiesha, they began to walk further inside the hospital.

"Guys, the cameras are disabled." Victor's voice suddenly rang in their ears, and they halted on their steps. 

Their faces brightened up, and a relieved breath left Leia's mouth. "So, what do we do now? I don't know the way to your uncle's office. "

"Don't worry, let me give you directions. If you guys have walked a bit further into the hospital, look to your right and follow through the hallway that has a red signboard hung above the entrance. "

Leia slightly nodded her head and turned to glance at her right. A wide corridor that was devoid of people walking up and down came into view, and she turned her head to glance at Kiesha.

Kiesha shrugged and proceeded to walk through the hallway. Leia followed behind her, and her eyes glanced at each door that they walked past.

"Two passageways will come into view. One is on your right while the other is on your left. Follow the one on your left. A blue-colored door different from others, with the number 112 written above it, will be the first door you guys will glimpse, so yes, that's his office."

Leia slowly nodded and fastened her pace to catch up with Kiesha, who was ahead of her.

The two passageways came into view, and without hesitation, they walked through the one on their left.

The first thing their eyes glimpsed was the blue-colored door, and a relieved breath exited their mouths.

They dropped the books in their arms to the floor and pulled out a slim long pin from their pockets. Leia raised her eyes to stare at Kiesha and half-smiled at her. "You should do this... I'll be on the lookout for any incoming persons."

"Why should I be the one to do it?" Keisha asked, with confusion written all over her face.

"You know, you're better at this than I am. I mean, you were the one that taught me this in high school, so..." She arched her brow at Kiesha, and Kiesha slightly nodded at her. "Alright then."

Keisha walked closer to the door and squatted down, then inserted the pin into the door. "Men, I don't understand why this man would use such a tight lock on his door." She clicked her tongue in disbelief.

Leia glanced at her and turned around to keep an eye on the corridor and be on the lookout for any incoming people.

"How is it going?" Victor's voice reverberated as he suddenly asked.

"You didn't tell us your uncle was a very wary man." Leia scolded with displeasure in her tone.

Um... he has never even let me into his office once, so how was I supposed to know?... How is it going with Kiesha? Any progress?" 

"Well, we are getting there." Leia turned her head to glance at Kiesha, whose ear was close to the lock.

"I see... Well, we are still waiting outside. We don't have much time anymore. " Victor said in a tone that held a bit of anxiousness, and a deep breath escaped Leia's nose. This has to be successful!

Inside an enormous building, two men who looked like brothers sat down on brown sofas opposite each other in the living room.

One had black hair with a little mixture of white as a result of aging. His gray eyes complemented his white skin, which looked a bit wrinkled.

The other had brown hair and gray eyes just like the other, and his skin, which wasn't that white but a bit tanned, was also wrinkled a little.

"Brother, I am very grateful for the help. Thank you once again." The brown-haired one said, with a half-smile on his lips.

The black-haired one waved his hand at him and smiled cheerfully. "Haizz, Fernando, we are brothers, it's nothing." 

"I am still grateful." The brown-haired one, who went by the name of Fernando, nodded his head and stood up from the couch. "Well... I must take my leave now. I have a new patient at the hospital whom I must attend to. " 

The black-haired one nodded at him and also stood up from the couch. He extended his hand and they exchanged handshakes. "Alright then, see you some other time." 

Fernando nodded, and without another word, he proceeded out of the building and stepped into his car to drive his way to the hospital.
