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 before he could take the first step up the stairs, he suddenly felt something strange. He looked back at the sitting room, from the couch to the floor. He wasn't the type to sleep on the floor after getting drunk, but it was strange that he found himself on the floor. He kept looking at the couch, rubbing his forehead, until he finally remembered something. "Mate?" He said to himself before scoffing. "That's impossible." "Eric!" He called out in anger, and at that second, a man quickly walked in as if he had been waiting for him at the entrance of the house. "Who came into the house last night?" He asked with fury, but the man looked up at him with surprise. "No one came into the house, Alpha." "Are you telling me I'm lying?" He asked again, but was hit with a more terrible bang in his head because of how he was raising his voice. He winced, but still, he didn't care. He walked closer to Eric and held him by the collar. He was sure someone entered the house, and he knew it was a woman. "No sir. Please forgive me." The man begged before he finally let go of his collar. "Get every worker here now. No one leaves the compound." He commanded before the man left. He sat on the couch with his legs crossed. He was so angry that he didn't even go upstairs to change his clothes, which smelled of alcohol. He didn't know what was going on, but he didn't want to jump to the conclusion that his wolf called someone a mate last night. "It can't be. She can't be the one." He thought, rubbing his hands together nervously. Soon after, the door opened, and Eric walked in. "They're all outside Alpha." Without bothering to say anything to him, he stood up and went outside. As soon as he stepped outside, he didn't have to say anything or look further before he sought a frail creature among the employees. "Mate." His wolf called. He moved a few steps forward. The other maids, who also saw where his eyes were, quickly moved away, giving him a way to see the girl, who was hiding behind them. They felt that something was wrong, but none of them could say a word. *** Amelia was ready to go home. She had already been given her pay and was free to go, but she couldn't because of her phone. She had been so restless since she woke up that morning. She didn't even know who she met yesterday, nor did she see the face because of how dark it was. She wished she had her wolf, which could have helped her see in the dark, but at that point she didn't want to think about that. She just hoped it would be time for the maids to go clean the house so that she could come clean to the housekeeper about her phone. But not too long later, a knock came from the door, and the housekeeper went ahead to open the door. "Good morning, Eric. What are you doing here early in the morning?" The housekeeper asked, but the man did not reply to her greetings. "Alpha Aiden requests to see everyone of you right now." "Request to see us?" The woman asked, surprised. Even the other maids that were in the room having breakfast quickly stood up. "But why? Did something happen?" They knew the alpha didn't even know any of them except the housekeeper, who served his food and made his bed. "I don't have time for this. We need to go now." Eric said, knowing that even a minute late could cause him death. Amelia was so scared that she felt like her heart would explode. She has never seen the Alpha before, and she has heard stories of how wicked he was. He was the only ruthless one among his brothers. And his requesting to see them all of a sudden made her remember last night and feel terrified. She quickly walked towards the housekeeper. "I should get going." She said, forgetting how she was planning to get her phone, but before she could move an inch, "No one leaves until you all meet the Alpha. And also, wasting more time means trouble." Hearing this from the man, Amelia knew she was in deep trouble. The other maids were also scared, but they all accepted their fate and followed the man. They stood in front of the big building and watched as the man went in to call the Alpha. "Maybe if I beg him, he will spare my life." She thought, but her mind drifted to how she had pushed him, which made her accept that there was no way to get out of the trouble she had brought on herself. She had seen the alpha sleepwalk, and there was no way for forgiveness. She was already fidgeting as they all stood together outside, but she made sure she was standing behind them. Suddenly the door opened, and everywhere suddenly became silent. She didn't even look up, but what surprised her was that the person standing in front of her quickly moved away, and a man was walking closer to her. She looked up slowly, and her heartbeat became even louder, sweat running out of her whole body as she kept looking at the man, who was standing in front of her with an emotion that could be described as rage. She didn't know what he was thinking, but she just knew he was looking at her with so much hatred. "This must be a joke. The moon goddess must be playing tricks on me." Aiden whispered as he kept looking at the girl. He didn't even know what to do or say to her. Turning to Eric, he said. "Lock her up in a room." And at that same instant, he walked back into the house. Amelia thought she heard wrong. She looked at the man who had signaled some men to drag her. "No. Please, please forgive me. Someone help me." She kept screaming as she was being dragged away. Even the maids were surprised at the incident that just unfolded. They could not explain what had happened, nor could they help the lady, who was being dragged away. They all quickly left the scene.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
They had already caused a scene, making everyone's focus on them. Even the Luna was about to stop the woman when a loud voice sounded in the quiet room, making everyone look towards the route where it came from. "That's enough.""Beta Liam." The woman called out with a smile, looking at the man who was already standing beside the girl."How much is the gown?" Liam asked, looking at the woman with no emotion.The woman, who was also surprised, felt embarrassed. She knew that she had caused a scene, which must have made the beta ask her how much she was shouting over, and not that she was pained about the clothes or worried; she just wanted to show the low-class omega a lesson. "The gown costs a fortune, Beta, but that's not even the problem. People like her need to be taught a lesson." She said, looking at Amelia, who was just looking down with tears falling out of her eyes.Liam sighed, as if he were trying to keep his cool. "How much is it?"At that point, the woman knew she was don
He got home late in the night. He entered the house to see Carrie sitting in the living room, pressing her phone. "Aiden, you're back." She stood up to hug him as he walked towards her.Aiden just stood without wrapping his arms around her. He pushed her back gently. "It's late. You should be in bed already.""I was waiting for you. Change first and come back downstairs to have dinner."He stopped in his tracks. There was only one person that do wait for him to have dinner, no matter how late he was, and he didn't even eat it often. Everything happening to him kept reminding him of her. She would leave soon, and he wouldn't see her again. That was what he wanted, but why does it make his heart feel heavy? Thinking about it made him feel so uncomfortable. Without looking at Carrie, he said. "I don't like eating dinner this late. Good night."She watched him until she couldn't see his back view anymore. She scoffed angrily. "You have nowhere you can run to, Aiden. You're only mine."
"Is this the time you wake up every morning? Starving hungry? What is he paying you for when you can't wake up early to cook breakfast?" Carrie asked, folding her arms in front of her chest. She sounded angry at the same time, smiling. Her actions could make anyone confused.Amelia walked slowly towards her. "Oh my goodness! Your neck. You're the girl. Pardon me for my mistake. I mistook you for a maid." She said, covering her mouth with her hands as though she were surprised.She stretched her hand towards Amelia in a handshake. "I'm Carrie Wills." But before Amelia's hand could touch hers, she moved her hand away, making Amelia's hand hang in the air."I didn't expect this. You don't look like anything I imagined." She said, looking at Amelia from her head to her toes. "That was why I mistook you as a maid. You're a maid. There is nothing to apologize for." Carrie laughed.Amelia was so angry. She was shocked when she saw a lady in the living room as she walked down the stairs. She
He paced up and down in the lobby as the doctor attended to her. Not too long later, the door opened, and a doctor came out of the room.He hurried towards the doctor. "How is she, and the baby?""They're both fine. Your wife inhaled a lot of smoke, but she's fine. Please monitor her more. She's in a delicate state." The doctor smiled.Aiden did not say anything. He felt relieved that she and the baby were okay. Ever since he learnt about the baby, he had changed. He wasn't sure he was ready to be a father, but he didn't want to abandon his unborn child. For the past week, he would create time to accompany Carrie to the hospital. He was ready to do any tests and attend any lesson. He's cold, and he's angry at Carrie, but he wouldn't abandon his child.He wanted to correct the doctor that she wasn't his wife, but he let go of it. What would he say she is to him? Girlfriend? Mate?"Can I go in?" He asked, to which the doctor nodded.He opened the door and walked into the room. She was m
It was her mid-exam week. She focused on reading and writing her exams well. Seeing the magazine with Aiden finally got her to sort out her thoughts. She wouldn't be selfish to separate and destroy someone's family. He will soon be a father, and it's only right that she keeps her distance. She had been planning to move out immediately after she sorts the breaking of the mate bond between them. She had finished her exams, and a few days later, it was Christmas. She didn't even have plans for how to celebrate it. Aiden was right. It was for humans. She sat in her room all day on Christmas Eve. Vera called her on Christmas Day for ice skating. She wanted to reject the offer, but she felt it was too much for her to say. She couldn't reject the Luna. She also felt she would feel okay if she left the house.There were a lot of people in the skating field, but despite that, it was fun. Vera was grazing the floor while Amelia kept trying to balance herself, but she kept falling.Vera made
He waited for her to say something, but nothing was coming out of her, not even a movement. He continued. "She came back around three weeks ago. And..." he found it hard to say. "She's pregnant."The towel she was holding around her body fell to the ground. As if the revelation of her coming back wasn't enough, she's pregnant.He had met her three weeks ago, and she's now pregnant. He had been distant. Is it because of her? Because he had seen and reunited with his first mate."You... you're going to be a father?" She asked.He nodded. "It's complicated... She's still my mate." Hearing this, she couldn't hide her tears anymore. It felt like her heart ripped into pieces. He said she was his mate. What about her? Tears ran out of her eyes. She tried to wipe it off, but it didn't stop. The girl who had left him was back. She didn't know about her, but she heard rumours. His first mate. And now soon-to-be mother of his child. She was back to take her place. She was just a substitute. Th
He couldn't breathe, couldn't think. All he could do was sit there with his eyes closed, surrounded by the suffocating silence of the water.He was confused and frustrated. It was a Friday, and he was supposed to be at work, but he had to take a break, especially after what he heard last night.He was trying to solve the matter of the two fated mates at hand when another came in. He wasn't even sure he was ready to be a father, especially after the issue with Carrie. She left him without a word, and he was still angry about that.Speaking of Amelia. She's also his mate, and even though he didn't want to understand how that was possible, a part of him didn't want to let her go. He wasn't sure of his feelings, but he knew he was attracted to her.He was still underwater when he suddenly heard a loud sound. Someone had entered the pool. He swam up to the surface, angry someone had the guts to enter his special pool. Just when he was about to get to the surface, he noticed the person was
"Alpha, Ms. Carrie is here to see you," Eric announced as he entered the room. He wouldn't have come to inform him, but since she works for the investee company, he had no choice.Aiden looked up at him. "Let her in." There was no reason to avoid her, especially after what had happened the night before."Yes, sir," Eric replied before leaving the room. After some minutes, a knock came from the door. He asked the person to come in, and she walked in. She wore a V-line neckline red dress that stopped on her thighs. "Good morning," she said with a smile, walking towards his chair. "Sit down." He said with no emotion, but Carrie still kept smiling. She sat in her chair opposite him. "How are you doing?" She asked. "What do you want? Did Mr. Bates send you here?" Aiden asked, but to his surprise, Carrie burst out into laughter. She flipped her hair to the back and asked. "Do I look like I'm here for business? I came here as Carrie, not Miss Carrie.""Then I'm busy. I don't have any time
"Who comes to a training facility this early morning?" Liam asked, looking around the empty room. He didn't get any reply from the guy, who was already sweating a lot because he had been hitting the punching bag for over an hour.Aiden suddenly called him to come, and he knew something was bothering him only for him to get there and be treated as if he was invisible. He asked him if he would box with him, but he declined. He left the hospital to join him, and he would go back to the hospital so he couldn't afford to destroy his clothes. Aiden, on the other hand, was wearing a shirt and suit pants, but still, he was in the ring boxing like he was training for a fight. To think he didn't even have a bath and was still in his last night's wear. Finally, he stopped. He removed his boxing gloves and left the ring. Liam handed him a bottle of water as he took a seat beside him.He also took it and drank it until he almost emptied the bottle. "Do you feel okay now?" Liam asked, but Aiden
The next morning, they didn't see or meet each other, not to mention eat breakfast. He went to work as usual and did his normal routine, even though he still couldn't get the thoughts of having two mates out of his mind. He didn't understand why Carrie would just come back after a few months and still be his mate. He never rejected their bond, but he never thought the bond might still be there when he had already marked Amelia. He didn't know what he could do even though he and Amelia had planned to break the bond. He was uneasy with the thought of it. And even if he breaks the bond with Amelia, he can't act like things are fine with Carrie.He stopped working when Eric came to inform him it was time to leave for the party. Work had ended hours ago, but he stayed back in the company to attend the party, and he was uncomfortable going home.The party was held at a big hotel in the city. He walked into the large room filled with different people, dressed in different classy suits and
