Chapter 8

*** Bridget P.O.V continues *** I woke up with a start because it was so late at night. I looked around the room and saw that I was the only one there. I was still scared of that dream, so I grabbed a pillow and a blanket and went into the toilet. Before getting in the tub, I turn on the light and put the blanket down. I went to sleep right away. After a few hours, I woke up and put the blanket and pillow away. I then went to the kitchen to get some tea. I got a cup ready and took it. Then I grabbed a blanket off the couch and wrapped it around me before walking out to the balcony. I like the morning because everything is quiet. I heard, "Hey, Bridget," coming from behind me. I almost spill my tea when I jump up a little. "Forgive me. "I didn't mean to scare you," he told her. He looked like he had just finished working out because he was wearing gym shorts and sweat was glistening on his beautiful body. God, Bridget, stop being so crazy. "Please don't punish me. Before I get ready for breakfast, I usually have a cup of tea. I'm sorry, I'll go back inside "I was a little bit scared at first. I should have known that this is the time when wakes up. "Bridget, could you please sit down? He said, "We need to talk," and I sat down in the chair next to me. No, I don't know for sure if Daniella gave him my messages. I need to do what he asked of me. Maybe he'll turn me down and send me back home. I started to feel scared and lost my breath. He grabbed my hands and said, "Breath, Bridget. You are safe." I inhaled deeply and closed my eyes. "I apologise. Don't send me back home, please. I will do anything you want. I'll clean and cook. Let me stay, and I'll help you in any way I can. You can turn me down if you want, but..." "Bridget stop!" He cuts me off and looks mad. I'm not good at this. "Smith You're not here, Bridget, to cook or clean. You are not a maid. You're my buddy." He took hold of my hand. "Do you know what I'm talking about?" He asks with worry. I gave a head shake. He groaned. "How about I have Daniella explain it to you when you're ready? But you should know that my job is to protect you, not to use you." "But you bought me," I whispered the last part because I remembered what my brother had said. When I looked up at Alpha to see what he was doing, I heard a low growl and saw that the colour of his eyes was changing. In shock, I pulled my hands away. "Bridget I'm not like the other guys you've met. I know that if I hadn't given your father something, he wouldn't have let you go. He said as he stood, "Please don't ever compare me to those animals." I can tell by the sound of his voice that he is angry. I shrunk into my blanket. I just feel like disappearing. I looked up and saw that he was looking at me. Even though he looked sorry, he just turned away. "In an hour, Danielle will be here. I'm going to my place of work, "From behind the door that leads to the balcony, he says. I just nod, but I don't turn to look at him. "Bridget, I'm...," he starts, but he doesn't finish. I could hear him go. I just stay there until morning. Daniella showed up 30 minutes later and came out to the balcony to see me. "Hey, sweetie, I heard what happened. She was on her knees in front of me and looking up at me. I nodded. She laughed and said, "Good, honey, because we need to go shopping." She took my hand and pulled me towards the door. We took the elevator down and walked into the lobby. The bellman in the lobby said, "Good morning, Beta Winter and Miss Smith," as he opened the door. "Are you leaving for the day?" "Yes, Dan. "Let's go shopping," Daniella says with a smile as we get into an SUV that looks like it cost a lot. "Have fun at the mall, ladies," Dan says with a smile as he waves. Then we went home. After driving around for a few minutes, the car stopped in front of a cute little shop. We were met by a beautiful woman with long, wavy hair. She locked the door behind us and said, "Welcome, Daniella." "Stacy! Here's Bridget, who will become our Luna. "She needs to get a new wardrobe," Daniella said as she walked to the living room. Stacy showed me the way to a different room. "Go in there, take off your clothes, and I'll take a few things from your world." "Honey, what size are you?" Stacy asked. "Oh! I'm not sure anymore. I guess," I said in a nervous tone. Before she left, she laughed. I took off my pants and shirt and stood in front of the mirror wearing only my pants. I felt very uncomfortable. I can see all the scars that have formed on my body over the years. "Okay, miss, I have a lot of options... Oh Miss," When Stacy saw my scars, she stopped. When Daniella came in, she looked shocked. "Bridget, my dear," he said. Her eyes go to my wounds. I tried to cover them with my hands, but I have scars on my hands, so it didn't help. The tears fall without a sound. "Please don't cry, Bridget. What's wrong with you, my love?" As she dried my tears, Danielle asked. When I didn't answer, she said, "Okay, that's fine. I'll be here whenever you're ready to talk." Then she said, "You have such great legs that would look great in lingerie." She looked at Stacy, who gave her a nod and walked over to me. She took my measurements and said, "We'll play these up and give you both full-size and quarter-size sleeves." Okay?" She looked at Daniella and me. Daniella nodded, and after taking a deep breath, I did the same. They both leave, and when Stacy came back with a lot of different clothes for me to choose from, I told them to go away. I put on each piece of clothing in turn. I've never worn so many different kinds of clothes in my whole life. Danielle liked them all. "Stacy, we'll take all of them. Daniella tells Stacy, "It's time to go to the next store." Stacy runs off to wrap all the dresses. "What's next? "How many shops will we visit?" I asked. "Well, I'd chosen five stores. I don't want you to be too tired, though, so let's just go to four stores." She laughed when she saw how shocked I was. Four stores!!? . . . .......
