The men were carrying guns, all of them. Mr Reyes with fury in his eyes was leading the whole group. They surrounded Mr Nergall and all his men and now were pointing at them.
“Arya, my darling, what has he done to you?” Her Alpha was holding her. She could smell his pheromones as she was sobbing in his arms.
“It’s Ok baby, I’ll take you home. You are safe now.” He kissed her forehead as his hand slipped to touch her nape.
“He hasn’t marked me.” Arya managed to pronounce it between her sobs.
“I will make him suffer.” He whispered into her ear.
‘Mike, take care of Miss Arya for a moment.” Mr Silas Reyes turned to the count.
Arya wasn’t willing to respond to any questions asked. She was finally back to her safe place. She was warm and cozy. She felt cared and pampered. Her Alpha was with her and she was willing to take full advantage of this situation. It was actually the very first time she was in heat and was in one room with an Alpha.“Arya, is this your heat?” She heard Mr Reyes asking her for the tenth time.“Hmm, yes Alpha.” Arya’s hands had already slid under his shirt and were touching his bare skin. Her eager lips were searching his, she wanted to kiss him.“Finally Arya, I have been waiting for it for so long.” He kissed her gently as he was pulling off her nightgown. “My own Omega’s heat.” His hands were right on her nape rubbing it an
Ever since that heat her Master, her Mate became extremely attentive to her. All her anxiety slowly settled down. She was still herself, two things however have changed. She felt a certain connection with her Master. She felt drawn to him. Whenever he touched her it felt as if a little spark was igniting something inside her. It was hard to control in the beginning and Arya ended a few times initiating closeness with her Alpha.“You became so needy, I like that.” Was his only comment. They actually did it a few times outside the playroom. After that they agreed to enjoy their time both in her bedroom and in the playroom.Second one was her hairdo, Mr Reyes insisted that she should pin it up to expose her neck. Right after her heat was over everyone in the mansion knew she was marked. It was a weird feeling. Arya wanted to h
For the next two days Arya felt stressed. Everything was happening so fast. She was preparing the invitation according to the Master’s list, ordering musicians to play during the ball, agreeing the menu with the chef and she also signed a contract for renting the workshop for a year.From one day to another her life switched completely. From a person with nothing to do, to a busy bee with almost no time to rest. Arya loved it. As soon as she overcame the first shock she was in her environment.She looked through all the fashionable magazines to check the trends, she decided to set a new motive to the ball. That was now really in. She only needs to think of something catchy.During breakfast with Mr Reyes she decided to talk about it.&ldqu
Arya was standing in the workshop, there were three sewing machines that has just come. She was looking at them proudly. Her new workshop was one of the few that actually had those. In front of her were all the young Omegas she had bought from the Institution.“I’d like to officially welcome all of you. In this workshop we will be making unique creations, lingerie for those who can afford our luxury products.” Arya smiled and so did the girls. They looked excited, two of them however were still really stiff.“I know how you feel, I was raised in that Institution too, now I have a chance to change something. Actually no, we have a chance to change our lives. If our brand becomes a success we will earn money and be independent. If we fail, well that will be problematic.”“Will your ladyship sell us to a brothel?” A timid blond girl asked.“What’s your name?” Arya asked back.“Mira, madam.”“No, never. In the worst case scenario you will gain your freedom back and look for a decent job.
The next morning Arya felt refreshed, the night with her Alpha was the best. Ever since she was marked, sex has become a way better. Their connection made her feel him more. The sexy black item made its work. Mr Reyes didn’t even want to take it off for the foreplay. It was so … Arya blushed again. Today was the big day. Everything was ready. The hall totally changed, with little tables and flowers placed on each one as well as a long table standing at the wall which will be later on used to display food and drinks. There was also the dining room with extra chairs to sit and relax and finally the biggest room was cleared of all the furniture to provide space for the dancing couples. The whole decoration was held in black and golden color. Those were the colors used by Mr Reyes in his shop and it connected nicely with wealth and luxury. All maids were wearing simple long golden dresses which made them look like golden statues. From the ceiling attached to the chandeliers strips of g
As soon as the remaining few guests arrived Arya and Mr Reyes finally made their appearance in the hall. People were already talking in groups and the gentle sound of a harp made the beginning of the ball a real appetizer.Arya could feel all the gazes focusing on her and the house master as soon as they entered. They were wearing matching outfits and looked like true lords of their own empire.Mr Reyes approached the pyramid made of champagne glasses and with a strong voice made the introduction for the first toast.“Ladies and gentleman, first of all thank you for accepting the invitations and spending this evening with us. Today there are many reasons for celebration, first of all the marine project so many people were involved in came to its final phase. Thank you all for your hard work.” Arya clapped her hands along with the guests. “What is more, my business partner Miss Arya will soon launch a new brand on the market.” Clapping of hands followed but Arya could see how shocked
The ball was over and Arya felt relieved. The tension of the recent past few days finally left her shoulders and she could focus on her business more. Mr Reyes was in his final phase and was seldom at the mansion. Arya was spending every morning in the workshop. Almost all her designs were already made and the girls were working hard to finish their work.“Look at this. What do you think?” Piper proudly showed her the latest model. It was made of pale blue satin trimmed with white embroidery and it looked elegant.“I like it, Piper. In two weeks time we are about to prepare a display of our products and there will be a great opening at Mr Reyes shop. I already bought something really special. I’ll show you.”Piper followed Arya to the office where she found mannequins .“Oh wow, they look like people.” Piper looked at the mannequins with round eyes.“Well I wanted to make it special, so ladies will be able to admire the models and will know how it will really look like on them. They w
The whole ambient was set. The tables with sweet snacks, bottles of champagne and chairs for the invited guests. Arya clad in red stood close to the door hoping for a flood of guests. Her heart was pounding, everything today has been so hectic, it all started with a disaster and all this stress almost drenched the whole energy out of Arya. She was nervous but she could only imagine how the girls might feel as they were about to present themselves wearing lingerie.“Arya, I just heard what happened.” Mr Reyes came in with a worried look. “Don’t worry, even if the presentation won’t go as planned I’m sure your designs will be a looker.” He held her tight and Arya almost started to cry.“Miss Arya, the guests …” She heard one of the shop workers interrupting that intimate moment.
“A question?” Silas crossed his arms. His stern look reminded Arya about their first meeting. Yet she was no longer a slave, now she was his wife and she was with a child. What is more she wasn’t the one who did something wrong, she wasn’t hiding anything. She suddenly felt she had an upper hand in the following discussion. “Yes my dear husband.” Arya sat down on Silas’ chair. ”Have you ordered your men to demolish my workshop?” There was a short flash in his eyes. He was shocked but not surprised. Arya suddenly deep inside already knew the answer. “Who told you such nonsense? Was that the Omega you met today?” He stepped inside the study and closed the door behind him. “Have you ordered it? Yes or no?” Arya asked again. “Will you believe me when I answer you? You seem to already know the answer.” He was standing in the middle of the room with his hands in his pockets. True Master of this place. “I need the truth Silas. Be it un ugly truth but still the truth.” Arya decided not
For a brief moment Arya didn’t know how to react to such a question. “Why are you asking me such a question?” She finally decided to ask back.Mehan was fidgeting with her fingers looking down on the table before she looked Arya in the eyes.“I ‘m not sure whether I should tell you this or not. I owe your husband my freedom, but I think I owe you even more. I owe you my life so I think you should know that.”The serious expression of Megan made Arya feel uneasy. Her stomach suddenly tightened, the first indication of stress.“What do you mean Megan?” “ The man that brought you the documents before we left, he works for your husband right?” “Yes.” Ary felt some cold tentacles crawling up her spine. “When I was working at the brothel I met him. He was into Carla, a Beta with curly brown hair. Once he brought three other men with him, they were celebrating something. All four of them were drinking and having fun talking about their business. From what they were talking I assumed they
Winter was slowly coming to an end. Every day the sun was shining a little bit brighter and longer. Every morning Arya was watching her reflection in the mirror carefully. Her body was changing. The belly was slowly growing and each time Ary was touching it she felt that the child was a real thing. Inside her a new life was growing.“You look amazing.” Her husband sometimes was hugging her from behind while his hands were resting against her belly. Then he would usually place a kiss on her nape and advise her to rest, relax and eat. Yet Arya’s conviction was firm, she wanted to stay active. Her underwear brand was doing well. Two weeks ago some new designs were presented and immediately picked up interest. Right now she was selling not only in her husband’s shop but also in two other places. The income was good enough to maintain all the costs and earn her a nice sum every month. Of course it wasn’t near as much as Silas would earn, still Arya felt satisfied that she was also contrib
Dancing and talking to all the guests finally wore Arya out. She needed a break and really looked forward to all of them leaving the mansion. The wedding however lasted till late at night. Arya managed to get back to her room and without taking off her dress threw herself on her bed. Her legs were hurting and all the tense feeling from the whole day finally left her. She was on the verge of falling asleep when the door opened. “Is my lovely wife trying to fall asleep in her own room on our wedding night?” Silas voice sobered her up. “No, I was just a bit tired.” Arya sat down on the bed.“Come with me, I want to show you something.” Silas took her hand and they walked out of her room. Arya followed him in the direction of the playroom. Fuck no. She wasn’t in a mood for something like that. Silas stopped in front of his bedroom. In one swift movement he took her in his arms and opened the door. “I always wanted to do that, carrying my wife inside our bedroom.” Arya’s heart started
Arya was taking a deep breath in and out. It was a moment of quiet for the first time this morning. She woke up early as usual and then a bunch of maids entered her private room. Arya was washed, some creamy mask was put on her face, her body was rubbed with a fragrant and relaxing oil. Next was her hair, it was dried and turned into curls and then pinned up and decorated with white flowers. Later was break time for Arya to eat something. After putting on some makeup Arya was dressed. The dress was magnificent, with sparkling lace, underlining her breast and waist, making her look princess-like. The maids even helped her put on earrings and a necklace of course. It all looked very expensive and Arya felt like some heroine out of a romance novel. After all that hustle and bustle she was finally left alone to rest for a bit before the ceremony would start. Arya came to the window, it was late autumn. Winter will soon paint the whole garden in white and grayish tones. Not even a year a
“Hmm, so now you are telling me that it is up to you what will happen to the family business?” He placed the glass aside.“You have no shame, don’t you care about your brother and sister? Have you ever thought about what might happen to them?” He looked nervous. He must have hated the situation when a pitiful Omega is about to make a decision concerning his future.“You are mistaken sir, I have no family. I’m an orphan. If I had a loving father I surely wouldn't be abandoned in a hell like the Institution.” Arya clenched her fists, she was ready to pour it all out.“You see, a loving father wouldn’t allow other men to beat his daughter and humiliate her. A loving father would care if she is cold and has enough food to eat. A father wouldn’t turn his back at a child that had to beg for food on the street. A decent man wouldn’t allow other men to treat his daughter like a sex object that can be bought and later disposed of.” Arya knew she wasn’t able to keep her tears from rolling. Stil
Fredric Bailey was a good looking man in his late forties. His hair had the light ouch of grayish color yet the way he was walking and his erect posture made him look younger. He was wearing a dark gray suit and a walking cane, that was an accessory rather than something he needed for walking.He had this noble atmosphere around him, even now sitting opposite Mr Reyes, he didn’t look like a man who came here to beg for favors. Baron Fredric Bailey had a serious expression and his way of speaking was very composed.“Mr Reyes, I’m glad you have found time for a meeting. I have a few issues I need to discuss with you.”“The pleasure is all mine.” Mr Reyes leaned comfortably and crossed his arms waiting for the other party to continue.“As you surely are aware Mr Reyes your recent actions have interfered with so far established ways of doing business. I believe as gentlemens we can find a proper solution that would be beneficial for both of us.” Then there was a pause. Baron was waiting f
The event turned out well. The man enjoyed the view of prosperity and a successful project, while the women had their share in gossiping and checking each other’s outfits. Arya was done with it, she only wanted to go back home. She had her urgent question she wanted to ask but for that she needed privacy and the right timing. Silas knows how to keep things a secret so it won’t be easy to make him speak if he doesn’t want to. On their way home Arya did what probably all other women were doing that very moment. She praised her fiance.“I must say that the marine is a really impressive project, I’m glad that it successfully ended. “ Arya grabbed Silas’ hand and smiled.“Me too, there is still much to do but it already starts to bring its profit.” Silas was beaming with joy. That celebration did him well.“I was so worried that the matter with the count would harm your business.” Arya decided to start it slow.“Well the count has his shares here too, so he gains as much profit as we do.
The door was opened and a tall elegant looking man faced Aya.“Good afternoon sir.” She greeted him.The man bowed a bit.“Good afternoon Miss Arya.” He was leaving and Arya went inside. As soon as the door closed Arya asked.“Who was that, Silas?” After engagement he decided that she should call him by his name, the Master thing was saved for the playroom. That was definitely a huge step forward.“Just a man who works for me to collect some information.” Silas smiled and placed a peck on her forehead. “Do you happen to know anything about that burglary in my workshop?” Arya sat down opposite the desk.“Unfortunately no, there were no traces and no witnesses. I’m sorry.” Silas sat down behind his desk.“Hmm, I have a request. Today I met an old acquaintance from Institution, her name is Megan. She was sold to a brothel, she’s around my age and I feel sorry for her.” Arya lowered her gaze, she knew she was asking about much but Megan was worth it despite her recent reaction.“You want
