She sat down on the couch in the living room, looking at the table in the middle of the room as she was lost in thoughts. She didn't even realize it when two people walked into the room.Her mom and dad, Cassandra and Gary, both entered the room, to which Gary asked, "You're back. How was the party?" But seeing that their daughter wasn't looking happy, they walked closer to her and sat beside her. "What's wrong?" Cassandra asked. Every time, they had always known that their daughter, Valerie, was the one who would change his life forever. They were happy when their daughter got to attend a party in the pack, even when they couldn't because of their status. But for their other daughter, Amelia, they didn't see her as anyone who would benefit their family, especially Gary, who was her biological father. The only thing he could do was collect Amelia's money or steal it from her.He really loved Valerie to the point that he would always give her anything she wanted just to make her happy
In the woods. It was a quiet, bright day. The trees are blowing around in the direction of the breeze. They stayed hidden as they kept waiting for the enemies to show up. They'd gotten the information that the enemies would surely walk along that route as they were planning to attack a nearby village. For about an hour, they were still hiding in their respective places, and there was no sign of the enemy. "I think we might be wasting our time. What if they already know we're on to them?" Jason whispered to Aiden, who was just looking straight forward with no emotions. They were both hiding together behind a tall tree, while Liam and the other men are scattered around the woods. "They won't be able to smell us, so just calm down and stop talking." Aiden said, looking at him before looking away, but Jason didn't look like he would back down. "I shouldn't have come for this mission. I knew this would happen." He complained, but Aiden could only hiss. "Let's just..." Before Jason coul
That same night, she waited for him in the dining room as she kept looking at the food she had prepared for dinner. He was unusually late that night. It was almost ten p.m., and she thought maybe he wouldn't come home and she should just go to bed. But still, she couldn't stop getting worried. She hoped she could talk to him that night about her phone and if he was in a good mood. About going to school. She had been thinking of not giving up on her dream because of her father. She would love to go to school. She had even applied at one school not quite long before he started working in the Alpha's house, but couldn't continue because of the money. The money from the work she was doing now was enough, but she only had one problem. The Alpha. She waited for about half an hour again, but when she was already feeling sleepy, she stood up to leave for her room. Just when she put one of her legs on the stairs, the door opened, and he walked in. She quickly ran back to the dining room. "
In the study room. The room was so quiet and a bit dark. It would have been darker if not for the small light seeping through the brown curtains. The room was so quiet to the point that one wouldn't know that someone was in it. He sat on the chair behind the table. His eyes were closed as he faced the curtains, and his back rested on the chair. On his left-hand side lies a long jacket on the floor. He had removed it and threw it on the floor carelessly last night. He kept moving uncomfortably, his hand going over the cut on his arm that had seeped a lot of blood on his shirt. Just then, the door was pushed open. ** Amelia walked into the room with a tray. She slowed down as she was met with a dark room. "What does he have with dark rooms?" She thought as she walked slowly. "Alpha Aiden. I brought your breakfast." She said as she took another step forward, but when she didn't hear anything, she stopped. "Is he not here?" She said to herself as she quickly turned around to leav
She ran to her room with tears in her eyes. Standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, she cried, touching her neck. She took some soap and rubbed it on her neck before applying water, but no matter what she did, it didn't wipe off. Once again, being nice has brought her into trouble. She should have just left him. Maybe if he had died, she would have been free. But here she was saving the devil in her life and causing more problems. She sat on the floor of the bathroom as she thought of a way out, but she knew there was nothing she could do. She was hoping to escape from him, but that wasn't possible again. He had marked her. She's finally trapped. She didn't leave the bathroom, nor did she go out to cook lunch or breakfast. After some hours later, she finally dragged herself to the bedroom, and she slept off. The next morning, the rays of sunlight seeped into the room and shined towards the man on the chair, disturbing his sleep. "Ah!" He cried out as he opened his eyes slo
"You have a meeting by eleven a.m., sir." His assistant said as they entered the office. "Cancel it. I'm not in the mood for any meetings right now." For the first time, they got to the office late. It was almost time for his important meeting, but still he told him to cancel it, which shocked Eric, his assistant. But sir... He couldn't finish his words when Aiden snapped. "Seriously Eric! Do you need me to come open your ears and scream into them before you do what I told you?" "I'm sorry, sir." He said and quickly ran out when he heard. "Leave." He was already having a headache thinking about the problem he had gotten himself into, and he wasn't ready to deal with his assistant's nonsense again. "Oh my gosh! I can't believe what this omega has gotten me into. Did she think I'm weak like her?" he said, rubbing his hair before looking up. He knew that she had saved him, and that was the mistake she made. She had come closer to him when he wasn't himself, which made him mark her
"Come again. The housekeeper, what?" He asked, to which Eric also swallowed hard before saying. "I was told the housekeeper beat her until she passed out."He suddenly found a rage growing inside him. It felt like he wasn't in control of himself. "The housekeeper dared to beat her? Get the doctor first, and bring that woman to me now." He said. His tone denoted how angry he was feeling. Eric also ran out immediately.He was so angry, but he still managed to control himself and sit. The confidence she had to beat her was what pissed him off the most. Not long after, the door opened, and the woman entered with Eric and a guard behind her.Ms. Jones knelt on the floor with her face down. She knew she was in trouble with the way the Alpha was looking at her, but still, she couldn't help but have a little confidence that he wouldn't do anything to her."I heard you discipline my maid. Why is that?" Aiden asked calmly. It took everything in him just to be as calm as he was, despite how angr
She ran to the living room, but she didn't find anyone there. "Has he gone to work? No, it's still early." She said to herself, looking up the stairs. "Should I go to his room?" She thought, but she remembered what brought her into trouble. He could kill her if she dared knock on his door.The nurse said as she walked down the stairs and walked towards her. "Ma'am, you need to come back to the room.""I'm sorry. I just need to see the Alpha real quick." She said, but the nurse wasn't ready to hear her out. She knew the consequences of what the doctor, who would soon be there, would do to her if they found the patient not receiving treatment. Amelia also wasn't ready to listen to her, causing the both of them to argue loudly with each other."What the hell is going on here?" They both stopped immediately when they heard the stern voice and looked up to see him walking down the stairs with his assistant behind him. He was surprised to see her already up. He looked at her, examining her
The weekend was awkward. They didn't talk to each other; they almost didn't see themselves in the house. Aiden ate nothing from the house, and Amelia also stopped cooking for him when she noticed. She also had her pressing issues, and sulking Aiden was something she was less bothered about.It was finally Monday. The day she had been dreading. She couldn't help but feel she might get another note. And the fact that she had no one to talk to it about. Aiden was not an option for her, and she didn't want to worry or get Alicia into trouble. She went to a morning class and stayed until about one pm until she decided to leave. She had been on edge all morning, expecting another note, but so far, nothing. She left the school to go to the bus stop to take a bus when she noticed someone had been following her.She looked back to see someone wearing a black hoodie and mask. And at the height of it, the person waved at her. Her heart skipped a beat as she saw the person wave at her. She fel
"Are you sure you don't want to have dessert before going?" Vera asked, holding Amelia's hand.Liam and Jason had gone, leaving only her and Aiden. She didn't want to follow Aiden home, but she had no choice, especially when Jason had gone because he had important work. She felt Liam couldn't do anything to hurt Aiden, so she didn't do anything, even though that didn’t stop her from wondering what he wanted to do with the fork.The car had been brought to the driveway, and she was bidding her goodbye while Aiden stood beside the car, looking at them."I'm sorry, Luna." She apologized, to which Vera also smiled. "Ok.""And I'm also sorry about the wine.""How many times do you want me to say it's okay? Stop worrying about that." Vera smiled before looking at Aiden. "Thank you for coming. Get home safe.""Good night, Mother." He said before entering the car. Amelia smiled at Vera one last time before she turned around to enter the car. Her stomach churned at the thought of sitting in th
He had to leave the room when he felt like he might suffocate soon. He walked towards the garden to get some fresh air. Weird things he couldn't give explanations to keep happening to him. He came to have dinner in the pack's house after a long time, for no good reason. And he couldn’t eat well because he couldn't stop staring at Amelia.He even remembered how she was smiling while eating, and that almost brought a smile to his lips. He got to a shed in the garden and took a seat for some time until Jason joined him there. "What are you doing here? Are you feeling hot?" Jason asked with a teasing smile, but Aiden did not say a word or spare him a glance."Is this because of my sister-in-law? Isn't she looking so pretty?" "I told you not to call her that again," Aiden snapped, to which Jason raised his hands. "Ok. I'm sorry." He sat next to him, and silence filled the air for some time until Aiden asked. "You bought the dress?"Jason looked at him. He wasn't expecting such a question.
They all looked shocked as he entered the room."You finally came," Jason said, breaking the silence."Aiden, oh my goodness. I can believe it," Vera said. She stood up and hugged him. Her eyes were almost teary as she stared at him. "Get another plate, please." She told the maids."I thought you were not coming," Jason said with a smile, but Aiden knew he was teasing him. He did not bother to say a word; he just sat beside Liam, gazing at Amelia, who was looking so uncomfortable. He only took his eyes off her when Jason added. "It seems Aiden also couldn't get enough of your beauty, Amelia. He seems lost."Amelia was so embarrassed. Jason was making everything worse for her, and the other two people in the room weren't helping either. They chuckled as he made his jokes. She thought she would get swallowed by the ground. But luckily for her, it didn't happen. Liam came to her rescue. "It's okay now, Jason. You can do this after eating.She finally eased up a bit, but she kept looking
She looked at the gate as the guards pushed it open. Even though she had been here before and had seen the Luna before, she couldn't shake the nervous feeling in her.The car drove into the compound and stopped in front of the house. She got out of the car after a man standing at the end of the grand entrance stairs walked up to her and opened the door. "Good evening, my lady.""Good evening. Thank you." She felt uncomfortable, but she bowed her head and smiled."Welcome, young master." The man faced Jason, who had also gotten out of the car and walked up to them."Good evening, Robert. Is dinner ready?" Jason asked with a smile, to which the man also smiled back. "Yes. Let's go in."As if it wasn't embarrassing enough, Jason stretched his hand to her and smiled. "Let's go, my lady."She sighed inwardly. She could have easily rejected his hand, but she had no choice. The heels wouldn't allow her to do that unless she wants to embarrass herself more.The house loomed before her, its ex
Jason took her home. He had informed her that the luna invited her for dinner in the pack’s house and she had to be there. It was not enough getting a threat note. Now she would go to the pack's house to have dinner with the luna. She was about to go in when she spun around. It was as if Jason also knew she wanted to say something. He got out of the car. "I'm sorry, but is there a way to refuse this? I'm not feeling well." She said, smiling lightly, but stopped when Jason was just looking at her. Suddenly, he placed a hand on her forehead. "Are you sure? You don't look sick. Maybe we should go see Liam, then?" He turned around to enter the car, but Amelia quickly stopped him. "No. I didn't... it just... she couldn't complete her words when she heard Jason chuckle. She felt embarrassed, and she had to look away from him."You don't have to be scared. It's just dinner." Amelia gave him a nod, even though she wasn’t fully convinced.Jason left, and she walked into the house. She wante
He knotted his tie as he looked at himself through the mirror. He noticed his undereyes were a bit puffy. He couldn't sleep well after he overcame his tipsy state last night. He kept thinking about Amelia's face throughout the night. "I must be going crazy," He whispered. All of a sudden, his phone rang, and it was his mother. "Good morning, Mother." He said."Aiden. Good morning. How was your night?"He heard her ask. He could sense her happiness through her voice. And he knew it was something he wouldn't like. "What do you want, mother?" He asked."Come for dinner tonight. Your brothers will also be coming.""I'm busy, mother. I can't make it." He said it with a tone of exhaustion."Don't give me that again, Aiden. It's just dinner." Aiden heard, but he did not say a word. It has been a long time since he did all those kinds of things. Having dinner in the pack's house. "Ok, fine... inform Amelia about the dinner. Jason will pick her up." He didn't give it a second before he aske
After Patricia left, she also went to her room. To her, it was still early to sleep. She lay on her bed for hours, thinking. "I have a wolf, and now it's leaving me. Just nice." Even though she would have the chance to continue school, she couldn't help but feel Patricia's suggestion might not work.She rolled on the bed many times, but she couldn't sleep. It was almost midnight when she left her room to get water in the kitchen. As she walked out of her room, she realized the lights were already dimmed. It was not too dark for her to walk.She managed to walk down the stairs, but as she was about to go towards the kitchen, she felt a strange thing in the sitting room. It was a strange feeling as if someone were sitting there and staring at her. She felt strange chills run through her body. She couldn't run, nor could she say a word. Her phone was with her, and she couldn't press it.She was so scared, thinking a thief might have entered the house. Not once did she think it might be a
He sat in his office going through a file while his assistant stood in front of him. "It seems you're tired of your job, Eric. How could you keep making the same mistakes?" He asked as he dropped the file back on the table."I'm sorry I... Eric couldn't finish his word because they heard a ruckus coming from behind the door. He looked back at Aiden before walking swiftly towards the door to check who it is.As he opened the door and stepped out, immediately he was pushed back in by Mark, who entered the room."Alpha Aiden. How have you been?" He asked with a smile as he entered the room, but Eric tried to stop him. "Let go of me! Do you know who I am?!" He screamed at Eric, but still, the guy didn't pay attention to that. He was more focused on sending him out before the alpha would get angry.Aiden motioned for Eric to leave him. "You never listen, do you? You still have the guts to come into my office.""Are you angry at me? I thought you would like my gift. Looks like you didn't."
