ALPHA ADAN STONE.

“Get out!” I told the female who was kneeling in front of me in a cold voice. Her eyes widened with fear flitting across them.

My face was void of any emotions as I stood up from the single couch I was lounging on and drew my trousers up, buttoning and buckling the belt in place before I walked to the other side of the room.

The female, who was still on her knees, wiped the drool from the side of her mouth before she spoke, her voice trembling. “But, sir… let me try again if you didn’t like the…”

“I said get out.” My voice was low, but it was deadly that the female scampered on her feet and grabbed her heels before she opened the door to the private room and walked out without throwing another glance at me.

I grabbed the decanter and poured whisky over my empty glass before I tipped it over my lips, slowly sipping it as my gaze roamed around the bar below. I was on the second floor in the VIP section of this gentlemen’s club, looking over at the crowd below me. The big glass window was one way. I could see everyone, but no one could see me inside.

Soon, the door of the VIP room opened, and even without looking, I knew it was my Beta that had stepped in.

“What the fuck is wrong with you? That’s the third female you kicked out tonight. Not counting the other females three days ago.”

I didn’t answer him and continued to stare at the scene below. This was getting old already.
