Piss Off, Alpha! You Lost Me Forever novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Chapter 120 The Intruder

SOPHIA’S POV

"What the hell are you doing in my room?" I hissed, my hand still frozen on the light switch. My heart was pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears. "How did you even get in here?"

Zade stood slowly. His alpha presence filled my small bedroom. In the moonlight, I could see the slight smirk on his face, the way his eyes tracked my every movement.

"I missed you," he said simply, as if that explained breaking into my family’s home. He took a deep breath, closing his eyes. "God, even your room smells like you”

My face burned red “That doesn’t answer my question. How did you get in? And why-"

"I couldn’t sleep," Zade interrupted, taking a step closer. I stepped back. "I’ve tried everything - sleeping pills, whiskey, exhausting myself at the gym. Nothing works. All I can think about is you."

"So you decided to break into my house?" My voice rose slightly before I caught myself and lowered it. "Are you insane?"

"Probably." Another step forward. "But you wouldn’t come to me, Sophia. You made that very clear. So, I had to come to you."

"My brother is literally in the room next door," I said. My wolf was on high alert now, unsure whether we were in danger or not. "If he finds you here, he’ll shift and tear you apart for trespassing."

"Your brother is a heavy sleeper. I checked." Zade’s eyes went dark "And I didn’t exactly break in. I found a way."

That’s when I noticed it - the window behind him was open. My window. I remembered closing and locking it this morning before I left for work.

"You climbed up to my second-story window?" I stared at him in disbelief. "You could have broken your neck!"

"Worth the risk." He shrugged. "Besides, I’m an alpha. We’re built for this kind of thing."

"You’re built for being a stalker?" I shot back "Because that’s what this is, Zade, stalking. "

Instead of answering me, Zade reached for the buttons of his shirt and began undoing them slowly, his eyes never leaving mine.

My brain short-circuited. "What are you doing?"

"Getting comfortable." Another button. "Since you won’t let me leave yet, I might as well-"

"Stop!" I lunged forward to stop his hands, but my foot caught on the edge of my shoes and I stumbled.

Zade caught me before I hit the floor. His arms wrapped around me and pulled me against his chest. I could feel his heartbeat against my palms.

"Careful," he murmured. His face was so close to mine that I could feel his breath on my cheek. "Can’t have you getting hurt."

"Let go of me," I demanded.

Instead of releasing me, Zade buried his face in my hair and inhaled deeply. "Do you know what you do to me?”

I swallowed hard “Zade-”

Zade swept me off my feet and placed me on my bed.

"Zade!" I scrambled backward, but he followed, caging me in with his arms on either side of my body. "Stop this! You can’t just-"

He caught my wrists, pinning them above my head with one large hand. "Can’t what? Touch you? Want you?”

My heart was racing so fast I felt dizzy.

"Please," I whispered. I was suddenly aware of how vulnerable I was. "Please don’t do anything you’ll regret."

Something in my voice must have gotten through to him because Zade’s expression softened. "Sophia, I would never hurt you. You have to know that."

"Then let me go."

"I will....in a minute." His thumb traced circles on my wrist, sending shivers through me. "I just need-"

A knock on my door made us both freeze.

"Aunt Sophia?" Klara’s small voice came through. "Are you okay? I heard noises."

Panic shot through me. Zade immediately released my wrists and dove under my covers, pulling the blanket over himself completely.

I took a shaky breath and called out, "I’m fine, sweetheart! Just... stubbed my toe on the furniture."

"Can I come in? I want to make sure you’re not hurt."

"No!" The word came out too fast. I tried to soften it. "I mean, I’m not dressed, honey. I’m in my pajamas already."

There was a pause. Then Klara’s voice: "But I heard you talking to someone."

My mind raced. "I was... on the phone with a friend"

"Oh." Another pause. "Are you sure you’re okay?"

"I’m fine. I promise." I could feel Zade shifting under the covers beside me. "Just really tired, Klara. I need to sleep."
