CHAPTER 58: 058

The next weekend came quickly, and Tristan does not know what to expect.

He was nervous beyond words, his hands were sweaty and as the time drew closer.

Trevor had gotten a custom made outfit for him, and he felt reluctant to accept it but Nita reminded him of how big the event was which added to his worry.

What if someone recognizes him and reports to the Alpha?. That would be disastrous and he doesn’t want to add any more problems to what he has now because Alpha Mitch is unpredictable.

"Do you think this looks good on me?" Nita swayed to his front in a pink fluffy dress that made her look like a princess as it fell to the ground in beautiful ripples.

"Yes" he mumbled, his mind half on her dress.

"I think something that shows some skin would be good. I look naive in this". She replied with a frown of disapproval.

Tristan gasped and took a closer look at her.

"I thought you hate him, why are you trying to look sexy because he invited you out?.

Are you trying to impress him?" Tristan’s disbelief made her look away shyly.

"I think he is hot aside from being disgusting. I don’t want him to think I’m young and innocent," she continued.

"What’s wrong with being innocent?"

Tristan forgot his worry and tried to warn his best friend of an impending doom.

The Alpha that is a source of nightmare to him, but she is trying to impress.

"He is not a good person. You should know that". Tristan warned and she nodded with a wide smile. But he knew deep down that she wasn’t listening to what he said.

He would hate to see her heartbroken or emotionally torn like him.

They are poor and ordinary omegas. They shouldn’t make life harder for themselves by getting involved with Alpha Kings.

Tristan got distracted when Trevor arrived a while later.

He looked handsome and boyish in a suit. Tristan noticed they were wearing the same colour of shirt but said nothing about it and just sat beside him in the car.

Someone was driving them and Tristan’s attention was on the view outside as the car moved smoothly in the evening traffic until he felt Trevor’s gaze on him.

Tristan turned his head to look at him and their gaze met for a few seconds until he turned away.

The intense gaze from the young Alpha made him warm and their closeness wasn’t helping.

"I should not be doing this". He thought absentmindedly.

Trevor beside him felt proud and giddy inside, he has been watching the Omega for months.

He had been helping him secretly and openly.

He had watched him hurt and sometimes happy but since he had first set his eyes on him, he had been determined to protect the Omega with all his might.

Attending this event together means a lot to him. Soon he would go everywhere with him, and proudly show the world the Omega belongs to him.

***

After about thirty minutes of driving, they arrived at the venue. Tristan noticed the flashing cameras and immediately became more nervous.

He was more nervous to say out his discomfort and Trevor held the door for him with a proud smile.

Several cars arrived also and everyone was looking prime and proper. Extravagance was evidence but so was the obvious power strain among the Alphas who were there to show off.

Trevor held out his hand and Tristan reluctantly put his’ after a brief hesitation. He was slowly getting used to his gestures and he was glad it’s just that and nothing weird.

Tristan noticed quickly that every Alpha had either one or two Omegas with them and that made him relax a little bit. Although many female Omegas dressed in a sexy manner, their gorgeous dresses left nothing to the imagination.

He hadn’t seen so many Alphas in a single place before. It was scary and fascinating to him.

They walked inside the banquet hall and his mouth opened slightly in awe. But the mixture of different pheromones hit him and his eyes watered.

It was brightly lit inside and soft music played in the air.

He earned a few lewd gazes from some Alphas as they tried to locate their seat.

"I never knew it’s usually this crowded here. Just make sure to stay with me no matter what" Trevor said with a smile and raised a finger to help him tuck back a strand of hair that had fallen to his face.

Tristan nodded and returned his smile.

He doesn’t know anyone here to wander off anyways. That wouldn’t happen. He thought silently.

They hadn’t been seated for minutes before a voice interrupted them.

"Trevor?" The voice called and both of their heads whipped to the direction of a middle aged Alpha. Trevor smiled and stood out of his seat.

"I know I can never be wrong!" The Alpha said with a chuckle until his eyes traveled to Tristan.

Tristan avoided his gaze and looked away.

"Is this your...

The Alpha hinted at Tristan and Trevor nervously smoothen over the awkwardness.

While they were sharing pleasantries, Tristan subconsciously had his attention drawn to the entrance of the hall.

He quietly enjoyed the entrance of people until his eyes landed on a familiar figure. His body went rigid and his heart skipped several beats.

"What is he doing here?" Tristan thought in panic and immediately turned towards Trevor as the Alpha had finally left.

"What is it?" Trevor asked as he noticed the pale face of the Omega. It was as if he just saw a ghost.

Tristan could not form any word as his heart continued to slam violently against his rib.

"Are you okay?" Trevor asked again, his brows drawing together in worry.

He gently touched him on the cheek and Tristan immediately moved back.

Trevor’s frown deepened as he did not understand what had happened under the fraction of a minute while they were together.

What had he seen?

"I...I -

I need to use the restroom" Tristan managed after some time.

Trevor slowly nodded but he was still confused as to what had caused such sudden change.

He wrapped an arm around him and they both disappeared in the direction of the restroom.

But a pair of dark eyes followed them as they disappeared into one of the doorways.
