In the big mansion of the Alpha of the Shadow Moon pack. The house was as quiet as it has always been. Some maids could be seen walking in and out as they cleaned in a hurry. They all know what could happen to them if Alpha Aiden meets them there.
They were only allowed to clean the house at their scheduled time before going back to their quarters. And no matter what happens or whatever noise is heard from the main house, no one must interfere or enter the house except the person who wants death. Rumor has it that the alpha sleepwalks at night, which makes him not want anyone to stay with him in the main house. In the hallway upstairs, a maid could be seen mopping the floor. She packed her brown hair into a tight bun. She looked messy, with the sweat building up all over her body. Suddenly, a loud ringtone disrupted the quiet hallway. She quickly took the phone from her pocket and put it in silence mode before looking around her to check if anyone was coming. "Good of you, Amelia. You picked up my call on time today." She heard the voice say over the phone, followed by a laugh, but she just sighed as she kept looking around to see if anyone was coming, because she knew the consequences as they weren't allowed to use phones in the house. "Send me money. I will be expecting it." "I'll send it tomorrow. I'll collect my pay tomorrow; please just wait." Amelia begged. She knew he would surely call her for money, since it was already the end of the month. She has been working as a maid since she was eighteen, four years ago. Apart from being a wolfless omega, her life has been so difficult ever since her mother died, and her father blamed her for her mother's death. Not that she knew who her mother was because she died when she was a baby, but she only heard from her father and had seen pictures of her. And ever since then, she has had to work for her family. Not that she was also happy working and giving her father the money, but she didn't have anyone or anywhere to go. He's the only one for her in the world, even though he's also the worst. "Just make sure you send it tomorrow, or you won't like what I'll do to you." She heard, followed by the hang-up sound. She sighed again as she thought about giving him and her stepmother the money she had worked for again. Tears were almost running out of her eyes as she thought of her miserable life, forgetting where she was. She was just a wolfless Omega who still wished to go to college and become successful, even though she knew it wasn't possible because of her status in the pack. The money she makes from side jobs, her father still collects from her. She was still thinking about her life when she heard a voice call her name from behind. She quickly turned around to face the person, but due to fear, the phone in her hand dropped. But it didn't drop to the ground; it fell into the big flower pot that was close to her. "What are you doing here? The housekeeper asked us to come together for a meeting downstairs." The maid said, looking at her suspiciously. Amelia also noticed this, and she knew that the maid might have thought that she had stolen something, given that she was just a part-time cleaner. Without bothering to search for her phone, she left the mop and left the hallway with the maid. *** She was assigned another job downstairs by the housekeeper, and she couldn't get the chance to go back upstairs to get her phone. By the time they all finished their jobs, it was already late, and it was the right time to leave the main house. Also, she didn't remember leaving her phone upstairs. They all went back to their quarters, ate their food, and went to their respective beds. Amelia, who was also packing her bags as she would leave for her house the next day, collapsed on the bed. She was so tired that the only thing on her mind was to go to sleep. But as she closed her eyes, she suddenly opened them back. She sat up immediately. "My phone. Oh my goodness! I didn't take my phone from the house." She whispered with her eyes widening. "How could you forget your phone, Amelia?" She hit her forehead lightly. She sighed as she lied back on the bed, but raised up again. She wasn't allowed to go into the mansion at night, nor could she forsake her phone until next week, when she would come back. She had a feeling that something would have happened to her phone by then, and she was the only one who knew what she faced before getting the phone. When she couldn't take it any longer, she sneaked out of the room quietly and walked out of the quarters. She was so careful as she watched for the guard monitoring the building. It took almost an hour before she could get into the mansion, and to her surprise, it was so quiet and dark that it gave her chills as she stepped inside. At that point, she regretted not taking a torch with her. She was not expecting to find a dark room, but still, she couldn't go back after what she went through before entering the house. "I think I should find the switch first." She whispered to herself, not thinking that someone might be in the room. She didn't see or know where she was going, but she just kept trying to feel things with her hands as she moved, but suddenly she felt something like a hand grabbing her by the arm. She became alerted immediately and wanted to scream, but couldn't. She knew she was caught. "I'm..." Before she could complete her words, she heard a masculine voice. "Mate." She heard him say, but she couldn't move. She was shocked that she couldn't push him away, but when she felt his other hand on her cheeks and heard him say. "You came back." His hand slowly went behind her neck, but before he could pull her closer, Amelia finally screamed and pushed him away, making him fall to the ground before she ran out without looking back.The next morning. The whole house was clean and bright, with the rays of sunlight shinning through the windows. The house was so big and beautiful, covered in white and beautiful furniture. The living room was so big, with a large couch and pillows, but in the middle of the room lied a man. He was sleeping on the floor, with his back on the ground, his hands spread on the floor, and one of his legs on the couch, as if he had no life in him. Suddenly, his leg that was on the couch moved slightly before he put it down and moved in his sleep. After some minutes, he opened his captivating dark eyes slowly. Even with the way he looked rough and reeked of alcohol, he still looked handsome. Thin lips, a strong jaw, and beautiful black hair. He was just too handsome, even in his state. He sat up, but was hit with a terrible headache. Ah! He exclaimed with his hands on his head as he pulled himself up in struggle. He kept running his hands into his hair as he walked towards the stairs, but
He took his bath and went to work, but still he couldn't stop thinking about how his wolf could call another woman a mate.He had to cancel all his meetings because he couldn't concentrate. This is the first time such has happened to him in months. "Shit!" He closed his laptop frustratingly and took out his phone to make a call. "Eric, I need every detail about that girl this night. Even the little ones." He said this before hanging up.The day kept becoming shorter for him as each minute passed by. He couldn't even get any work done until work was finally over for the day.It was already late when he came back home. Almost midnight. Something that has never happened before. Even when he gets drunk in the club, he comes back home early and continues with his drinking.He walked into the house. "Good evening, sir." Eric greeted. Eric was his assistant at work, and he had some things to attend to on that day, so he couldn't follow Aiden to work.Without replying to his greetings, he ask
In the big office.The door opened, and a tall guy with blue eyes and brown hair walked in. Nicely carved brows, strong jaw. He was as handsome as Aiden, even in his white shirt tucked in black pants. "Is something wrong? I left home as soon as you called me." The guy named Liam said before noticing his pale face. "You didn't get any sleep again?" He asked, but Aiden just sighed. Aiden had already dropped the file he was going through. He walked towards the mini-palor in the middle of the office and took a seat on the couch, before Liam also sat opposite him. "That was why I said there was a problem. I met this girl... She's a new maid in the house or so, and..." He couldn't even complete his words. He ran his fingers into his hair in frustration and sighed. Liam was the only one he was really close with and could confide in. He shares everything going on in his life with him, maybe because he's a doctor. But he still talks with him more than he does with his other brother, Jason.
The next morning,She woke up with puffy eyes. She had cried all night. Looking around the big room, she quickly moved away from the big bed. She noticed that her belongings had been brought to the room, but as she searched through her bag, her phone was not there. How can she call her father and tell him about the problem she has encountered? She cried, thinking about it, but stopped immediately when she heard a loud knock on the door.She became even more terrified as the knock kept getting louder, but still she couldn't move closer to open it. All of a sudden, the door opened. "Have you gone mad? Didn't you hear the knocks?" The housekeeper screamed, but Amelia was just looking quietly with her face all sweaty.Seeing that she wasn't saying a word, the housekeeper also sighed before dropping a pair of clothes, which she recognized as the clothes the full-time maids wear, on the bed. "You only have fifteen minutes." The woman said before leaving the room.She kept looking at the clo
The van stopped in front of a cafe in the city. She looked around and noticed that the man had gone out of the van, and she took that as an opportunity to escape. Opening the trunk, she slowly crawled out and quickly moved away to avoid anyone seeing her. She was hoping she would get caught at the gate, because the guards at the entrance of the house would surely check any car that leaves the house, but strangely and luckily for her, they didn't, which made her more thankful. She made sure she walked far away from the van to avoid any problems with her getting caught. "You're finally saved, Amelia." She kept saying this to herself with tears running down her cheeks as she walked along the route home, but suddenly she remembered something. "No. I can't." She knew that the Alpha already knew she was an Omega from his pack, and going back home would surely get her caught. Not that she also had anywhere she could go, but home to her father was surely not an option.Having no destination
The next morning, All night, she couldn't sleep. She couldn't believe she would be locked up in that small room again, but still, she didn't care. She kept telling herself she wouldn't be weak give in to his demands, even if he were to kill her. Her face looked strong and determined, with no emotions in it.Not too long, she heard a sound from the door, which made her know that someone was trying to unlock it. The door was pushed open, and two men entered and dragged her with them.She knelt on the cold floor of the living room, facing the empty couch, but she was not alone. Two men stood on different sides of the room, but not too far away from her. She kept looking at the couch, and as soon as she huffed a sigh, she heard a sound coming from the stairs. Without having to look at who it was, she already knew it was him. He walked majestically into the room, sat elegantly on the couch she was facing, and looked at the girl, who was also staring at him directly, like she didn't fear
In the bedroom given to her, she sat down on the bed, looking at the copy of the document she had just signed. She sighed before stretching forward to take the contract. And as she went through it, different kinds of emotions kept flowing through her.Party B must obey and do whatever Party A says at all times without complaining or refusing.Party B must not tell anyone about the relationship or the contract between them or talk to anyone without the permission of Party A.Party B is not allowed to leave the house without permission from Party A.Party B is only allowed to perform the activities of a personal maid for party A, including cooking and doing everything party A wants, except cleaning or going near party A's studies. There were a lot of conditions under which she couldn't even continue reading."This is more like slavery. He threatened me to sign this useless contract." She cried, trying to tear it off, but stopped when she remembered it was of no use.Suddenly, a knock ca
She entered the house and was left stunned. It wasn't as classy as Aiden's home, but the green and brown of the room blended so well, giving it its own class. Just the typical modern, dark werewolf house. She walked in between the people, admiring the beautiful halls. She didn't know what she went there for, but there was no harm in looking around. She was still looking around when she suddenly heard a voice, which she knew was directed at her. "Hey."The woman also knew she had caused a scene because of the people's gazes on her. She just walked up to Amelia and whispered, despite her tone denoting she was angry. "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be serving drinks to the guests?"The woman did not even wait before she dragged her away from the place to the kitchen. In the kitchen. "Take this tray and go serve the guest." She said, pointing towards the drink filled with different glasses of drink, but Amelia, who was still standing there, confused, just kept looking at the drin
She kept staring at the birthday card, which was delivered to Alicia's house. It was Aiden's birthday day card, and it would take place that night. "How come I don't even know today is his birthday? Gosh, I'm so terrible. No. We weren't on good enough terms for me to know, but did he send this?" She kept looking at it, but she knew Aiden wouldn't have sent it to Alicia's house. He knew she had a new place now."Could it be Carrie? She must be the one." She thought. "But why?" She wasn't interested in going, but she remembered she had to expose Carrie. Perhaps that was an opportunity. "I'll go even if I have to see Aiden and the other pack members." She had been trying to avoid Aiden since that day. She didn't even call him for his account details. She didn't understand why. She still feels it was impossible. She likes him. She thought about him more since that day, but she was scared. Scared that she might not be enough. People are right. She's just an omega with no wolf.She search
He walked into the house. "Aiden, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you." She ran towards him to pull him for a hug, but Aiden pushed her back lightly before she could touch him. "You told me you were not feeling well." "Yes. I was feeling a bit dizzy, but as soon as I saw you, it stopped." She smiled, touching his shirt lightly, but Aiden yanked her hand off."I'm not here to play games with you, Carrie. Why call me to come when it's not something important?""Not important? This is because of our unborn baby." She pouted her lips. "You've confirmed your doubts, haven't you? Don't worry. I know you're doing all this because you're still angry." She smiled, crossing her arms in front of her chest, but Aiden didn't say a word. He just walked past her."The maids are here to help you. Only call me when it's necessary please.""Don't forget your party this weekend. I'll prepare the best suit for you to wear that day." She said to Aiden, who didn't wait. He walked out of the hou
He had been taking glances at his phone for about an hour since the meeting started. A man stood in front of the room, giving a presentation. While the other employees' gaze was on the presenter, he was in his world. Twenty-four hours had passed. He couldn't get a wink of sleep all night. He kept wondering what the test results could be. Shortly, his phone beeped. Without sparing a glance at anyone in the room, he stood up and left the room with his phone. "Tell me." He said without waiting for Liam to say a word. He walked towards the elevator to go back to his office. "It's... positive, Aiden. It's your child." He heard. Immediately, his whole body relaxed like he had just been poured a cold bucket of water. "Hmm." He hung up. He walked into his office and sat down in his chair, his hands running through his hair. He didn't want this, but there was nothing he could do. It's his child. *** She went to school with Alicia the next day. It was a long day for her because she had t
Some days later. She had signed the necessary documents with Eric, even though an account where she would pay the rent fee hadn't been sent.Eric told her she could move in, but she was skeptical about it, knowing it might be Aiden's plan not to collect the rent fee.Anyway, she packed her things with the help of Alicia into the new house. "Gosh, the house is so big. How am I supposed to live alone here?" Amelia complained, walking into the living room with Alicia. The living room looked sparkly clean, like the house had just been built and cleaned. From the couches to the beautiful furniture.She would have rejected the house if she had seen it before she signed the contract. The yard alone was vast, and to her surprise, it was a two-bedroom house. "Wow. It's so beautiful. Looks like the cold monster wants what's best for his girl." Alicia teased with a grin, to which Amelia could only shake her head. She had been dealing with Alicia's teasing for the past few days. Ever since she s
"Gosh, what was I thinking?" She screamed, holding her face in her palms as she rolled onto the bed. It has been about an hour since Eric dropped her home. Alicia wasn't at home and wasn't coming back home that night, so she had no one to tell her frustrations. "What would he think of me now? Why would I kiss him suddenly? Was I that desperate?" She thought. She sat up and looked at her phone, staring at his number. "Should I call him and tell him it was a mistake? No. That would complicate things. He might even be busy. He might have gotten home. Carrie." She remembered Carrie. He would go home to meet Carrie."What was she?" Strangely, she didn't feel guilty kissing him, perhaps because she knew Carrie was lying about pregnancy. "No. Carrie is a terrible person and should be punished. But how can I do that? Aiden doesn't know about her." She said to herself, thinking deeply until she got an idea. "The house. I need to get Carrie riled up and find a way to reveal her secret. And t
Amelia looked back at him, confused. "What are you saying?""That piece of shit. You don't seem to complain he's taking you home." He said, his back resting in the chair as he spoke with his eyes fixed on her."Ethan is not a piece of a shit." She couldn't understand why the conversation had suddenly diverted to Ethan. He scoffed. He stood up and strolled towards her, his gaze fixed on her. "Oh, defending him now?"Amelia swallowed hard. He was standing before her, and she couldn't avoid his gaze. She suddenly felt hot, and the only thing her mind was telling her was to leave. "Why are we even talking about him? I don't want to do this. I'm going home." She walked towards the door, but before she could open it, he grabbed her hand and turned her around, with her back touching the door."Amelia, wait... I'm sorry." He said, meeting her gaze. He couldn't let her leave again, angry. Her eyes were also locked on his. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. Aiden apologized to her.
He left the office after Eric's persistence for him to take a rest. He had indulged himself with work because he didn't want to go home, and he couldn't stop thinking about Amelia.He had called Liam to inform them about arranging for the paternity test in his hospital, to which he also agreed. A part of him wished it wouldn't be his, and he was also ready to take responsibility if he was the father. He never thought one day another woman's thoughts could feel his heart. He knew he wasn't keeping Carrie by his side because of her still being his mate, or he might still be in love with her.He has forgiven her for what he did, but the feelings aren't there anymore."Can we eat on the way before going to the hotel?" He said to Eric, who was driving the car."Sure, sir. Where would you like to eat?" Eric asked back, but he suddenly grew quiet.He wanted to see her, even if she wouldn't talk to him, just a glance at her to check if she was okay. He had stopped Daniel from watching over he
She couldn't sleep well throughout the night. Last night still felt like a dream to her, but she knew it wasn't. "I can't believe Carrie did this. She's so shameless. What does she want to gain? Lying to him about having his child." She thought, her hand running through her hair. She wished she could see the man's face. Carrie called him her father. Could it be her father? But why are they both planning evil things?"Should I tell Aiden about this?" She asked herself, but something in her told her he might not believe her. She loves Carrie and his child, and he wouldn't believe someone like her. "But he wants to do a paternity test. Gosh! I'm frustrated."Her mind was in chaos as she also remembered another thing Carrie said. "I've been the one doing all the work here. For years. I got him to the point he is now, and for such a minor problem, you're blaming me."The man's response also stated about manipulation because of what happened that night. She has been manipulating him for yea
It was finally evening. The person who called her told her the manager would only be around at seven in the evening, and that's only when she could see him.She got to the restaurant but still didn't meet the manager. "I'll wait for him," she said to the waiter before walking towards an empty table. The restaurant was large and beautiful, with a fresh scent of flowers in between each table. Several people were having their dinner. She didn't expect she would be accepted to work as a waiter, and it's a pretty decent pay. She can work for some time and get a small apartment.She sat down and looked around until her eyes met a glass barricade. It was another part of the restaurant that was separated from where she was. Perhaps a VIP area. The side looked much bigger, with comfy seats. And there weren't a lot of people there. She noticed a familiar figure talking on the phone."Is that not Carrie? She's the one," she said to herself as she watched her. "Did she come with Aiden?" she thou
