Sold To An Alpha

"OK, everything is settled," Victor said as he clasped his hands together and drew closer. "Let's get down to business."

"Wait, wait, hold on." Keisha's brows raised, and she stared at them as though staring at fools.

"What is it?" Victor's brow creased, and he turned his head to look at her.

"Don't tell me, y'all want us to discuss our plan here?" She blinked her lashes in disbelief. "Common, the walls have ears."

Everyone fluttered their eyes in realization and slightly nodded their heads."She does have a point." James shrugged and turned to glance at Victor. "We should find a much more private place to talk."

"Mhmm." Victor nodded his head and stood up from his chair. "Let's head to my apartment."

"I hope it's clean." Kiesha blurted out and proceeded to stand up, but a knock from Victor abruptly landed on her head, and she raised her eyes to hatefully glare at him. "Victor! Why the fuck did you do that?"

"I'm a grown man! What the hell do you mean by "I hope it's clean"?" Victor's displeased-filled eyes gazed at her, and he clicked his tongue.

Kiesha's lashes fluttered, and she parted her lips to say something, but not a single word came out. 

Leia and James, who stood on one side, sealed their lips as the urge to laugh overwhelmed them. 'Remember, best friends don't laugh at each other.' They nodded as they recalled their code and they friendly patted Kiesha on her shoulder.

"Let's go." James grabbed her by the hand and dragged her along with him.

They walked towards the Lamborghini that Leia came in, and Kiesha's eyes flickered in confusion as she saw Leia unlock the door. Her jaw fell, and she glanced at Victor, then at James, and back to Leia.

"When did you buy a car and a cool one at that?"

"Get in." Leia shook her head and stepped into the driver's seat.

"Wait, I need to-" Keisha tried to inquire for answers as she was confused, but was pushed into the car by James.

"Just get in." James' brows creased, and he also got in and shut the door.

Leia started the car engine and slowly drove off down the road. She increased the speed of the car and sped off.

It took them twenty minutes to arrive at a tall building, and Leia slowly drove into the compound and carefully parked the car.

They all stepped down, shut the car door, and proceeded to enter the building.

"It's been quite a while since I came here," James said as his eyes darted around.

"Me too," Kiesha said, nodding. She smiled and they all walked towards the elevator.

It took them to the 2nd floor, and they stepped out when the door opened. Victor walked towards his apartment with them following behind. 

He stopped in front of the door of his apartment and swiped his card to unlock the door. "Come in." He waved his hand at them and stepped into the living room.

Leia, who had already been there before, walked in and ambled to the sofa. She plopped down into it and crossed her legs.

James and Kiesha slowly walked inside, and their eyes darted around, scrutinizing the living room. Keisha glanced at Victor as she proceeded to sit down and half smiled at him. Obviously, the apartment was to her taste.

Victor shook his head at her and cleared his throat. He interlocked his hands and crossed his legs. "Alright, let me break down the plan for you all." 

"We need to be extremely careful as this is not going to be easy at all." They all nodded at him and relaxed on the sofa to listen to what he was about to say next.

"First of all, we are going to knock out two nurses from the hospital. One is black, while the other is white. They are always at the hospital backyard during lunchtime to talk about girls' things, so I think this one might be a bit easier."

"Do you stalk them?" Kiesha blinked her eyes as she asked, and James abruptly slapped her on the back of her head. She angrily turned her head to glare at James. "What is your problem?"

"Seal your mouth and let us hear the plan. Does it matter if he stalks them or not? " James clicked his tongue and folded his arms.

Kiesha's eyes glared at him, and she slightly nodded at him. "Just you wait. I will properly deal with you later." She smirked and turned her head to face Victor, who was staring directly at her with a lazy look on his face.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that? " She asked and puckered her face in displeasure. It was just a question.

Victor took a deep breath and proceeded to continue talking. "So, as I was saying, After we knocked both nurses out, Kiesha's younger sister, who is a monster at makeovers, will give you and her a nice touch on the face to look a bit like the two nurses. " He glanced at Leia, then at Kiesha.

"Then, since you are both pretty good at picking locks, you will head in first and get the doors open for us."

"James, you will head in right after them, and disable all the CCTV cameras. Then rush to my father's office and help them extract the files from my father's computer. " 

"Roger that." James nodded his head with a smile on his lips.

"What is your job then?" Leia, who was quiet all along, suddenly asked, and Victor's eyes fluttered. 

"Well, I am in charge of distracting my father while you all proceed with the plan. Once anything is about to go wrong, I will let you guys know through this. " He handed small ultrasonic speakers to them and they examined them.

"We will be connected through this, so no worries. Once there is any mishap, I will let you guys know." He smiled and clapped his hands together. "That's all."

Leia and the others nodded, satisfied with the plan, and stuffed their ultrasonic speakers into their pockets.

"We are carrying out the plan next tomorrow, which is a Tuesday, so meet back here at 7 in the morning." They all nodded at Victor, and James abruptly stood up from the sofa.

"Since we all lost contact, should we, um, exchange phone numbers?" He asked and glanced at each one of them.

"He's right, we should." Victor smiled and pulled out his phone from his pocket. They all exchanged contacts, and Leia stood up from the couch. "Well, I have to go now." She proceeded to leave, but Kiesha stopped her.

"Hold on, you still haven't told me when you bought that cool car of yours." Kiesha's lips twisted, and she folded her arms.

"My husband did." Leia took a low breath and turned around to face her.

Kiesha's face went blank upon hearing her words, and she couldn't help but turn her head to glance at Victor and James. "She's joking, right?"

"Nope, she is married." Victor shrugged and chuckled softly.

"What!" Kiesha blinked her eyes in disbelief and turned to stare at Leia. "Girl, when the hell did you get married? How come I don't know?"

"Two months ago." Leia smiled at her as she shrugged.

"Damn! So who are you married to?" Kiesha sat back down on the sofa and raised her eyes to gaze at her.

"Mr. Avalanzo," Victor answered before Leia could, and Kiesha's brain instantly exploded. "Impossible." She stood up from the couch and stood in front of Leia. "Which Mr. Avalanzo?"

"Is there any other Mr. Avalanzo?" Leia stared at her and asked with a raised brow.

The moment Kiesha realized that she wasn't joking, her body became motionless. A smile crept on her lips as she immediately remembered that day at the restaurant, where she met Mr. Avalanzo, who had never taken a woman on a date before. Haha...so Leia was the woman he wanted to take on a date.

Kiesha couldn't help but chuckle softly and turned to stare at Leia, who was gazing at her with a bewildered expression on her face.

"I didn't know that you were the one he was going to take on a date." Kiesha shook her head in disbelief and patted Leia on the shoulder. "Your husband is something else."

Leia's brow creased, and she narrowed her eyes. "What do you mean? Have you met him before?"

"Yes." Keisha nodded and plopped down on the sofa. "It was one night, and I was drinking at a bar in that newly opened restaurant. It hadn't even been up to twenty minutes when he abruptly walked in and took a seat beside me at the counter."

"At first, I thought it wasn't him, but when I looked again, I realized it was him. I said nothing and just sipped on my drink. However, I suddenly noticed him drinking bottles after bottles of alcohol and I kind of felt weird."

"Not just that, he was murmuring to himself and saying things I don't even understand. I felt uncomfortable by his weird behavior and I asked him why he was acting like a creep. He laughed at me, as though he was finding it hard to believe I was talking to him."

"I asked him yet again, and instead of answering, he abruptly asked me if women find dates romantic. "

Hearing this last part, Victor and James couldn't help but burst into laughter.. "Who doesn't know that it's romantic?" James, who couldn't contain his laughter, bent down while clutching his belly.
