Falling For The Alpha King novel Chapter 9

"What do you mean by the word "messed up"?" asked Bruce.

“There were bruises on her face and her eyes looked puffy. I don't know what happened to her. Hurry up and see her, it looks like she has something to tell you," said Dorothy.

"Okay, Mom. Then I'll see her now after putting Lisa's things into her room."

Then they entered the house. Lisa and Sean sat at the dining table, while Bruce went up to the second floor and put all of Lisa's belongings inside her bedroom. Then, without waiting long, Bruce immediately went back down to the first floor and said goodbye to the mother and his two children, then hurried off to meet someone who was waiting for him at the hotel in the city center.

That afternoon, the weather in Stowe was quite chilly, and as he drove carefully, Bruce wished those waiting for him well. Remembering the word bruised Dorothy made him even more anxious.

About forty minutes later, Bruce's car arrived in front of a hotel that wasn't too big but was quite busy in winter and holidays. After closing the car door tightly, the man immediately entered the hotel and stood in front of the receptionist.

"Is there anything we can help you with, sir?" asked the receptionist.

“I want to see someone, but I don't know the room number. I'll call her now. Wait a minute," he replied.

Bruce immediately pressed a name that seemed familiar to him. Several ringtones rang and finally the phone was picked up.

"Bruce," said a voice on the other end of the line.

“Gwen, are you all right, honey?” he asked.

"I-I'm fine, come to my room," he pleaded.

"Good. I'm there now. What's your room number?"

"Number 35."

"Okay."

After his conversation with the woman identified as Gwen was over, Bruce immediately informed the receptionist that he would visit room number 35. To ensure security inside the hotel, the receptionist verified this by calling the room where Gwen was staying.

After all the info was verified properly, the receptionist invited Bruce to go up to the third floor. Without waiting long, the man hurriedly walked quickly towards the elevator to go upstairs. His heart was beating faster, hoping that Gwen would be okay.

Arriving in front of the room where Gwen was staying, Bruce knocked on the door shouting, "Gwen, it's me."

Gwen who was originally lying down, then stood up and walked excitedly to the door of her room, then opened the door for Bruce.

After the door opened, Gwen immediately hugged Bruce tightly while crying. Of course, this made Bruce confused, but to comfort her lover, he returned the hug.

“Gwen, tell me what happened? Why did you follow me here?” Bruce asked curiously.

Gwen didn't answer, she continued to cry in Bruce's arms.
