OLIVIAI couldn't permit him to toil with my life again. He had done too much.Mustering all the strength I had, I pushed him away. He staggered backwards like before resulting in his phone falling from his hand.The thought of those photos going viral made my stomach churn in fear. No one would believe me if I tried telling them the truth—not when the Alpha was involved. Besides, he was getting married to the Beta's daughter.What interest would he have in an omega like me, why would he try forcing himself on me? Those were going to be the questions thrown at me.My words and pleas were going to fall on deaf ears and I might risk getting shamed or exiled.The pictures must get deleted even if I had to do that by force.In the struggle to take the phone that had fallen, I lowered myself and swept the phone off the floor. I took some steps forward and was able to grab it.He tried getting his hold on me but I kicked him so hard in the groin that he fell to the floor, holding his cock. T
DANTEI stood outside waiting for her to let me in but she refused to come out of her room, and the silence inside remained deafening."Olivia," I called her name again but my call was met with the same silent response.She had left the party without a word. After leaving the restroom, I wondered why she wasn't coming out of there or joining me at the wedding party. I wanted to check on her but didn't want to seem clingy. She was already having a hard time because she was sold to me.She doesn't have a good impression of me and I wouldn't blame her."Alpha, should I bring a spare key?" My Beta (assistant) asked as he came to me.I thought of using a spare key but it seemed like she wanted to be alone. I wondered what had happened to her. She wasn't so lively when we left the party but at least she talked to me.Did something happen in the restroom? Was she bullied?"No, there's no need to open the door. If she wants to be alone, that's okay with me." I replied and stepped back from th
DANTEAfter the doctor left, I called my assistant to my bedroom. I couldn't go out since the doctor said I should rest for the evening until the next day.I called for my assistant to inquire if Olivia had eaten the food I prepared. He arrived at my bedroom shortly after, and bowed in greeting."About the food I prepared?" I asked him, feeling a sense of apprehension. "Did she eat it?""No," my assistant replied, shaking his head. "It's still sitting in the kitchen. Are you sure you're not going too far in your efforts to win her affection? She's an omega, and she doesn't deserve this kind of treatment."I ignored his words, not wanting to hear them. I was already feeling frivolous and didn't need him to reinforce that feeling. I simply needed to focus on getting better, and then I would figure out what to do about Olivia.“Why didn't she eat from it? Didn't she like it? Or wasn't she aware I made something for her?” I asked, feeling worried while looking at my beta.“She never came
OLIVIAAfter Dante’s threat, I felt a chill run down my spine. His eyes were filled with anger, and I knew he wasn't joking around. I realized that it was time to let go of everything and start over.Dante had never mistreated me. He had only shown me love since I moved into his mansion, despite my behavior. It was love I didn't deserve.I thought about what to do first. I had to show him that I was ready to let go of everything, including Mateo and Charlotte. They were probably happily enjoying their honeymoon, and I was stuck in my room sulking over nothing. It was time to move on.As I sat on my bed in my room thinking about what to do, I remembered that I had never eaten the food Dante had cooked for me. I had abandoned it, and I felt remorseful. I decided that the first thing I would do was make it up to him by cooking a meal for him. I could invite him to dine with me and show him how grateful I was for his kindness.I rushed to the kitchen and began preparing a meal, I chose to
OLIVIA"Alpha!" His assistant, Diego exclaimed, rushing over to his side. I followed suit, but as I approached, he gave me a look of dread, and I stopped in my tracks."Quickly, we need to call the doctor," he instructed the head Butler, who immediately reached for his phone. Diego helped Dante to his feet, and I watched in horror as he guided him out of the room, his body cold and unresponsive.“What have I done? My mind was filled with questions, and I could feel a sense of panic rising within me. I looked over at the untouched bowl of noodles on the dining table and felt a knot in my stomach. What if something was wrong with the food? I felt a wave of anxiety wash over me as I paced back and forth in the dining room. My thoughts were racing, and I couldn't stop questioning myself. "What have I done?" I wondered, glancing at the bowl of untouched noodles on the table again.I started to feel a sinking sensation in my stomach as I considered the possibility that the noodles had made
DANTEI had regained consciousness when I overheard the argument between Diego and Olivia whom I recognized by the sound of her voice. Then I saw Diego walk in and bang the door in rage, he was almost approaching the bed when a heavy knock came on the door, and the knock turned to unending banging as Olivia kept demanding that Diego should allow her to come in.I wanted to ask Diego to allow her in, but he had already stormed out of the room, the door slamming shut behind him. I tried to sit up, but the doctor held me back. "Please, I need to stop him," I said, my voice urgent."You need to rest," my doctor said, shaking his head. "You've been through a lot."I knew he was right, but I couldn't let Diego hurt Olivia. “Please doctor, I understand everything you have said but I have to do something if you wouldn't want to witness murder before you leave tonight,” I said and started climbing down the bed despite how dizzy I was and the doctor couldn't help but give me a hand.He led me
OLIVIAJust as the doctor had said - Dante had made a full recovery within a week, and I was immensely relieved. I had been desperate to know what illness he had suffered from, but the doctor had refused to tell me, and Dante had been secretive whenever I had asked him. I knew that something was being kept from me, and I tried not to force him to tell me about it.I was getting ready for the day, trying to put my hair into a knot, when one of the maids knocked on the door. "Are you almost done, ma'am Olivia?" she asked."Yes, just a few more minutes," I replied, hoping she would leave me to finish getting ready in peace. But instead, she said, "The Alpha is waiting for you."My heart fluttered, and my hands trembled as I tried to finish tying my hair. "Tell him I'll be there in a bit," I said, hoping I sounded more confident than I felt. The maid nodded and left, and I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. I didn't know why Dante wanted to see me, but I couldn't help but fe
DANTE’S POV"Are you okay?" I asked Olivia, noticing the tension in her expression when she came back from the restroom. She was looking around nervously, and there was a sheen of sweat on her forehead."Yeah, I'm fine," she said, a fake smile plastered on her face. But I could tell she was not being honest."You're acting a little off," I said, trying to sound casual. "Are you sure you're okay?"“Yeah I am fine, why do you ask?” she asked me, widening the smile on her face which concealed how tense she looked before.“You don't look comfortable, tell me what it is about. I will listen to you,” I assured her.Olivia hesitated, then finally blurted out, "Can we just leave? I don't really feel like being here anymore."“You are suddenly asking that we should leave when we didn't get to do everything we came here for,” I said to her.“Oh, about that. I want us to visit other places.I think it's getting late, I don't want you getting exposed to how cold it's going to be at night,” she sa
Author's pov "No!" Olivia's answered flatly. "I don't understand, no what?" Carlos asked her feeling surprised. "No, I will not marry you!" Olivia repeated with a note of finality in her voice."Why can't you marry me?" Carlos asked her feeling hurt by the constant rejection he was always getting from Olivia. "Look Carlos, I have told you before that there is no space for love in my heart right now, I appreciate your friendship and your help and concern but you see anything more than pure platonic friendship, I don't want it." Olivia asserted. Carlos worries about the rejection like a mask on his face. He could not hide it and it hurt him badly but he still tried to convince Olivia knowing fully well that there was nothing more that he was going to say that would change her mind."See Olivia, this is not even about love or marriage, this goes beyond yourself, you have to think of your child here..." Carlos tried explaining. "That's exactly what I am doing! Everything I am doing
Author's POV.Olivia was about to take a sip of the juice when her boss suddenly flung the glass from her hand.The glass of orange juice fell to the floor and shattered. Olivia flinched and stared at her boss in shock and confusion."Why did you do that?" Olivia asked.Her boss heaved a sigh of relief and shook her head."Nothing," She replied."I don't understand, you must have done that for a reason," Olivia muttered, a bit suspicious of her behavior. "I added some brown sugar which isn't too natural...and I don't know if you are allergic to it. Since you are an omega, you could be prone to different allergies and I didn't want to give you something that would make you more sick," Her boss lied. Olivia never thought she could harm her, so didn't suspect her intentions further. "Oh okay," Olivia beamed at her. "I'm not allergic to anything. I can eat whatever I have but thank you for your concern," Her boss forced a smile on her lips and nodded. "Let me clean this up," Olivia s
Author's POV.When Carlos left Olivia's room, she felt a little relieved that he was going to take her place. Although she was still bothered about her boss' reaction, she didn't want to overthink it.Olivia let out a heavy sigh and slowly closed her eyes to sleep. As she was about to get drawn into utter darkness, a knock came on the door interrupting her sleep.She flinched a little and snapped her eyes open. She rubbed her eyes gently, feeling bewildered by the knock."Come in,"The door creaked open and Olivia saw her boss walking into her room. Her eyes bulged in surprise and she quickly sat up despite the dizziness that immediately overwhelmed her."Oh," She whimpered, taking her hand to her head."Hey, why did you get up like that?" her boss asked with a forced smile on her lips."Ma'am, I'm sorry for not working. I am not feeling well and the pregnancy is taking a toll on me. I know that I have no right to rest and expect a payment but please pity me," Olivia said in one breat
Author's POV. The next morning wasn't the best for Olivia. She had been feeling nauseous since she awakened and the dizziness she felt was stopping her from leaving the bed. Despite attempting to stand several times, she was weakened each time by the dizziness."My head hurts," Olivia lamented, taking her hand to her forehead. "Why is it hurting this bad, gosh!" she complained.She placed her other hand on her stomach and rubbed it gently."Baby, give Mommy a little rest," Olivia pleaded. "I can't work like this, my boss is angry enough. I don't want her to get more annoyed with me," Olivia muttered and turned restlessly in bed.As she faced the wall, Dante came to her mind."I'm sure that he's enjoying his life, while I'm here suffering," She uttered thoughtlessly, but then she remembered how sick Dante was.She suddenly became worried about his health and how he had been faring since she left him. A part of her felt guilty for leaving him in that state but her mind was telling h
Author's pov "What?" Olivia exclaimed, surprised by what her boss had just suggested."You heard me right, you cannot keep the baby!" Her boss insisted."And why is that? Why would you suggest such a wicked act that I should kill an innocent baby." Olivia bemoaned."Olivia, you have to be reasonable! You are in no position to keep a baby! Who would take care of the baby? How will you feed and clothe the baby? Do you think taking care of a newborn baby is a walk in the park? You can barely even fend for yourself and now you want to add another mouth to feed? And what if the worst happens and you end up giving birth to twins or triplets?" Her boss asked Olivia trying to reason with her.Olivia thought about what her boss had just told her for some time and tried to consider it but then she put her hands on her stomach and gasped. How could she think of doing that to an innocent baby who did nothing wrong?"No! I will not! I will keep my baby, even if I have to beg to feed myself and th
Author's pov "What? I don't get it, you want us to kill Dante?" Anna asked Mateo in shock. "Yes and also to take over his properties," Mateo answered nonchalantly. "So when we succeed in killing Dante, who is going to take over his properties?" Anna asked Mateo."What kind of stupid question is that? Who else would it be if not me?" Mateo asked Anna back and it was clear that he was beginning to get irritated by the question. "So what happens to me and my son? What would be our share in it?" Anna asked, choosing to ignore Mateo's irritation. She was fighting for her and her son's future so she was not ready to act soft and naive before Mateo. Anna knew that Dante did not love her nor did he come to trust her but she knew that she and her son's future was more secure with Dante than with Mateo whom she had come to know as a very selfish and self-centered person. She was not ready to risk her and her son's bright and settled future to please someone as condescending and disrespect
Author's pov Olivia burst into tears in the restroom. She wished and hoped that she was not pregnant."God, I can't deal with a pregnancy this period and at this point in my life, where will I see the financial resources to take care of a child?" Olivia asked herself as she continued crying. Olivia had always loved children and she would always say that children are special blessings given to them by the moon goddess but Olivia knew that having a baby at this point in her life would not be a blessing but was going to be a burden to her. "Please moon goddess, please let it not be what I think it is, please, you cannot be more cruel to me in this life than you already are to me." Olivia prayed silently in tears to the moon goddess hoping that her prayers would be heard and the moon goddess would have mercy upon her but deep down inside of her, she already knew her true situation. Carlos noticed that Olivia had been in the restroom for quite a long time and he was beginning to becom
Author's POV.Dante was shocked to learn that the child was his own, he never expected Cooper to be his child. But since the medical result has said so, he had no other choice but to accept it."Alright, doctor, thank you." Dante smiled and shook hands with him.Anna smiled secretly, feeling happy that Dante had finally fallen into her trap. She will be living a perfect life after today.She remembered how loving Dante used to be, though he was harsh now, he must still have that good side to him. She would finally enjoy it while her son would attend the best school and live a good life.She finally had what she dreamed of.Once the doctor left, Dante heaved a sigh and turned to Anna, who smiled at him."I told you that Cooper was your son. I would never lie to you. I can't pin my child on another man, just because of my needs." Anna smiled and reached for his hands."I know that you've never really liked me but I want to ask you if you would fulfill the condition that I gave you?" Ann
Author's pov Jane was startled to see Diego behind but she quickly comported herself and smiled sheepishly at him. She didn’t know when he showed up but she was sure he didn’t catch on anything."Hello Diego, longest time, I guess you have finally remembered me today." Jane said smiling at Diego but Diego was not Impressed with whatever nonsense she had to say. His face remained grim as he didn’t even listen to what she was saying."Who were you talking to?" Diego asked looking stern and without a single smile on his face. He knew she was up to something, she was so suspicious and had been since she showed up in Dante’s life."I don't understand, why are you asking me that kind of question?" Jane asked Diego, rolling her eyes. She was nervous that Diego had caught on something but she didn’t want to show it."Because I am a Beta and you are just a mere omega which means that I have a higher rank than you and so I have the right to ask you whatever questions that I feel like asking."
