ARAIA'S P.O.V
"Burn this." Alpha Alejandro handed me a pile of documents.
"Yes, alpha."
I went to the nearest fire pit and burned all the documents that he gave me.
I really thought that I would be a maid here as per what he said but I am more of an assistant rather than a maid.
That is what I have been thinking since earlier, I thought that maybe they just don't know what an assistant is. That is why they refer to it as a maid.
However, I am happy because I get to serve him as an assistant and not a maid. Because for sure if I serve him as a maid, werewolves , especially those like Giselle would just bully me worse than before as I am now serving the Alpha up close.
"Enjoying your work?" I almost jumped when Geronimo suddenly appeared.
"Why are you showing like that?"
He innocently looks at me. "like what?"
I raise my eyebrows and answer him, "like that! So suddenly!"
Geronimo just shrugs at me and focuses his attention on the documents that I'm holding.
"Don't you have a job?" He should be doing his job right now because he is still on his duty.
But he just smiled at me, showing me his naughty smile, saying that he could do whatever he wanted.
That is not a lie though…
He stayed by my side until all the documents were burnt and accompanied me back to Alpha Alejandro's room.
"What are you doing here?"
Alpha's voice is so solid that it can even pass as a voice for commercial use.
"I have something to say to you."
Geronimo gave me a smile after he said it.
I went out of the room after getting Alpha Alejandro's permission, although Geronimo didn't say it to me directly, I know that he and Alpha Alejandro have something important to talk about.
What could they be talking about?
It's been 2 months since I came to this world and I grew accustomed to how werewolves act here, it's not an easy days for me back then because werewolves will always have a say to you specially when you are under Alejandro's commands, but sometimes I think that it's the same as how it is on Earth since there are people who would envy you, like, it's pretty normal.
I am not saying that Alpha Alejandro favors me though…
Let's not assume things, I'm too far from his standards.
I spent almost half an hour before Geronimo left the room.
He just wink at me before going off. He's always like that.
I went inside and waited for what Alpha Alejandro would order me to do but since he does his work alone almost all the time, except those easy side tasks that he passes to me, I am spending most of my time here standing, and staring at him.
I just realized that wow, he's really handsome…
His look is very manly, those thick lashes, pink lips, tan skin and that jawline? Wow.
He's like those people who own hacienda!
The time passed by and as usual, I am not tired at all.
"This is great." Although it is refreshing to lay on my bed.
"I am not tired at all, so why do I feel like sleeping as soon as I see my bed?" It's weird.
But regardless of my thoughts, I slept well that night.
"HEY, SOMEONE IS CALLING FOR YOU." Melissa, one of my colleagues told me.
"Who is it?"
I am on my break. That is why I am resting here outside Alpha's mansion to get some fresh air.
Melissa shrugged her shoulders and gave me a piece of cloth.
I scanned through the piece of cloth and saw a familiar place in it.
"To whom does this come from?"
I tried to reach out to her again but my eyes squinted when she didn't respond and walked out on me.
"Just what is wrong with her?"
I shook my head in disbelief, I am still not welcome here in this place after almost three months of staying.
Like, hello? I am their colleague and we all have the same position here which is being an omega, it's not like I am different from them- except that I am a human which they're not aware of, but through their perspective we're still the same, so how could they treat me so differently?
"Ugh, whatever!"
I read what is written again, "What does this mean?"
What should I do with this information? Should I go to this place or not?
I am having second thoughts right now as I am not sure what is waiting for me in that place but my curiosity is kicking in.
Should I go or not?
I bite my lower lip. I want to go there but I don't at the same time.
"Haaa…"
I guess I'll just take a look, my curiosity won't subside if I don't go there.
Let's just hope that my decision is right. Besides, when I see something dangerous I will leave that place immediately.
Okay let's go.
I stretched my arms before I went to the place written on the cloth.
It took me some time to go there as I'm still not familiar with the place here, although I know where it is but sometimes my mind is tricking me.
And it is still my second time going there now because I just went there for a tour before, Geronimo made me go there.
Now, who wants me to go there, is it the alpha? I guess since no one can give me orders unless Alpha approves it or it should be coming directly to Alpha's mouth.
When I was near the place I noticed that the guards that were originally here to patrol were nowhere to be found but I just shrugged it off as I thought that maybe they changed their shift already, that's why they are not here.
I continued walking until I reached the door.
I can't hear anything from inside, am I mistaken? Did I go to the wrong place?
I looked to both sides but I still couldn't see anyone.
I knocked a couple of times waiting for someone to open the door but no one responded.
Did I perhaps come earlier than them?
In the end, I decided to go inside. a dark place welcomed me, I just remembered that there's no electricity here and since this place has no windows, everything inside was covered in darkness except those that had the light from the outside , I feel like those are holes that even my finger wouldn't fit in. That is how small it is.
I cleared my throat, "Hello? Is anybody there?"
I waited for a few seconds but no one answered.
I am not sure if there's anyone inside as I can't see anything clear.
"Hello?"
Still no response, don't tell me I was mistaken and this is not the right place…
I waited for a few minutes before deciding that I will just go back to wearing Alpha Alejandro so I can get the orders directly from him.
I should ask where the right place is too…
I was about to turn around when I felt a pressure pulling me inside.
"Woah!"
In a second, I found myself inside the room lying on the floor because of the pressure.
"What's that?" Ouch!
I felt like I had a bruise on my shoulder, it stinks…
My attention was transferred to the door of this room when I heard someone laughing.
"Haha!"
Wait, that is familiar!
I tried my best to block the sunlight that was blinding me so I could see clearly who was in the door.
When I finally adjusted to the light I saw a familiar figure standing.
"Now let's see if this won't humble you! enjoy your stay here! Bye!"
What?
That is the last thing I heard before the door closed.
"H-hey!"
What is she doing! Why is she closing the door?!
I stood up immediately but collapsed again because of my feet.
"Dammit! I think I sprained my ankle when I fell earlier."
It took me some time before I could finally stand and walk to the door but my eyes widened when I realized that the door was locked and I couldn't find a way to open it.
"What the-!"
Oh my god…
I was stunned for a moment.
I tried again and again to open the door but I still couldn't open it.
Gosh!
What should I do?
"Giselle!"
That girl!
"Open this! Giselle!"
I am shouting on top of my lungs but Giselle is not responding.
Did she go already? Why did she lock me up here?
"She's really crazy!"
Why did she leave me here? I've never imagined that she would go this far because of hatred towards me!
I held my head as I felt it hurt a little. oh my god…
How should I leave this place? For sure Alpha Alejandro is looking for me now as it is already past my break time but I can't find a way to escape this place…
I tried again to ask for help in case someone passed by this place and happened to hear me but no one came, nevertheless, I didn't stop and started to shout on top of my lungs but the same thing happened, no one came to save me.
I flattened my legs on the ground to lessen the pain from my ankle. I took a deep breath before I closed my eyes.
What should I do?
I have noticed that the light from outside is slowly fading away indicating that the sun is already setting outside.
"I don't want to stay here any longer!"
A hoarse voice came out.
What would happen if all the lights went out? Will the ghost hunt me or a monster will appear here?
different thoughts came to my mind but what made me tremble is the thought of alpha alejandro being mad at me.
What would he do to me? I don't want to get killed, this isn't my fault, I don't want this to happen!
But will he look for me? I mean it is common to look for your assistant who went missing right?
"No, why would he do that in the first place?"
That's right! He is the alpha so he must tell his underlings to do the work for him, but what if he ordered to kill me when they found me?
"Oh my god…"
It scares me as I know that he can do it without a second thought…
Damnit!
Just why did I fall for Giselle's trap?!
I should have known the first time that someone sent me a message asking me to go somewhere without the Alpha's order.
I should bear in mind that all the orders that I will obey are those who come directly from the Alpha and not to someone who just gave me a peace of letter!
I'm starting to get frustrated.
I have never experienced this before, even though I have many enemies from school…
Come to think of it , I've never experienced being bullied by someone and their friends for this long. Usually, they will just bully me for a couple of days but since I am not really responsive and I don't want to make them hate me even more I just ignore them and they will stop after that.
But the bullies in this place are built differently. Someone will bully you for a few months for unknown reasons, even going too far like accusing me of stealing something?
You can never find someone who will do that except Giselle. The one and only.
Ha…
I roam my eyes around this place, everything is becoming darker.
I hide my face between my knees so I will not pay attention to the dark surrounding.
It's been a few hours since I was locked here but no one is coming. I even called for everyone's name in my mind in hope that they would show up but no one came.
"Please…Someone…" Please help me…
I am afraid of the dark…
