Novel {Book 2} Chapter 4 – ~Amelia~
I observed the argument between Alpha Leo and his friend. It was very sad what was happening to the
man. From what I heard, the bastard was a douchebag and deserved all that he was getting, but I also
learned that Leo was a very powerful and influential man.
Why would fate tie me to the heavens and leave me on earth with no ladder? I was aiming above my
station.
His statement made me believe I might not succeed with him. Many horrible things happened to me on
the streets and in prison cells. Things I never speak of and just brush aside, buried deep in my mind. I
often live in denial, but I know the truth.
When I find a place to sleep at night and get through it safely without being disturbed, I know the truth
because only then do I experience peace.
Leo’s words scared me and made me almost lose hope completely. I felt terrible about the dish I broke
while eavesdropping on him and his friend. But it wasn’t deliberate. Honestly, his statement about
breeds and high-borns shocked me and cut me deep, but I hoped I won’t be cut off guard again.
The rest of the day was hard because I had to walk on eggshells. Leo was annoyed after his friend left
and did not seem to come out of it.
Seeing him, I knew he had a lot of pain, but didn’t we all?
After I had made his dinner and cleaned up, I opted to leave before he kicked me out.
As much as I was willing to put in an effort and try, I did not plan to irritate him and lose my job in the
process. This was the first time in my life that I would have a semblance of peace. A place to sleep,
food to eat and hope for wages without being violated. Rejected or not, he has been the kindest person
to me.
I returned to the servant quarters, and everyone was there.
The moment I stepped in, the women were silent. It made me feel awkward and out of place, but it was
normal. I was the new girl and not just a new girl but a Delta servant. It was unheard of.
Delta’s were usually high-borns from top families. Unfortunately for me, my mother was an Omega that
had an affair with a high-born and dumbed the result at an orphanage when she could no longer cope.
I think my eyes also were the problem. If I had the money, I would buy some contacts to hide them, so I
do not continue to look like something from a horror movie.
My gaunt, malnourished looks did not help matters either. That was why I was grateful for my new job. I
planned to eat as much as possible to fill my body and look healthy.
I smiled to reduce the awkwardness. While some of them returned the smile, some looked annoyed
and disgusted. I wondered whose job I might have taken.
I knew Omegas loved to serve the Alphas. Still, I was the only one in Alpha Leo’s house today. He did
not seem like the type to fuck the help, or maybe that rule only applied to me since I am the ‘displaced
thief he took pity on’.
I did not care, regardless. I had food, a place to stay, wages to collect and a fated to fight for. They
could look at me with all the hate they wanted. I just did not care. My skin was too thick for their shit.
I went to my bunk, and a blonde woman was waiting there with a smile. She had blue eyes. She was
too attractive for her own good. How can Alpha see me with people like this around him? I did not study
them really until I saw the woman. All the Omegas were gorgeous.
“They have had care, Amelia. Sure, we would look better in their situation. Throw them into our life, and
let’s see how dreamy they would look. Overprivileged bitches,” Aurora hissed, and I almost laughed but
held it.
The woman smiled at me, and I returned the smile, not knowing what to expect.
“Hello, Amelia. I am Macy. The head Omega,” She said with a warm smile, and I nodded, not knowing
what to say.
“This is the first time we will have a high breed with us. I want you to know you are most welcome. If
you need anything, feel free to reach out to me. Alpha said you are to work only in his house. So you
will take up the cooking and cleaning entirely tomorrow. I did the cleaning today, so you can sleep in,”
She said and smiled at me.
“Kappa Tom told me what happened. I want you to know he will come around. He has just been
through a lot,” She linked me and then winked at me.
“I will also advise you to be careful with some ladies here. You have taken their dream job,” She linked
me again, and I giggled, relaxing.
I guess I would not have a hard time with Macy after all.
She left me to settle in.
I managed to change into the Pyjamas available and went to bed.
I woke up early the following day and headed to the shower. It was an open place, but I wasn’t shy.
When I took off my towel, some of the Omegas laughed.
“My goddess, is that a skeleton?” Someone said, and Aurora made me turn to see who it was.
It was red-haired. I could see why she would open her trap. She had a gorgeous body. I could easily
subdue her, but I did not want to create a problem that would make them report me to Alpha Leo.
I did not need anyone to tell me I was on probation, so I will be on my best behaviour.
The bitch glared at me, and I turned back to continue what I was doing. I finished up quickly, dressed
up and went to work.
Alpha Leo wasn’t home when I got there. So I cleaned the house and waited around.
“Bring my breakfast to my office. Make it for two,” I heard his voice in my head, and I jumped a bit.
Rarely do people link me, but it seemed I would be getting a lot of that now.
I made him turkey sandwiches with many cold cuts between the toasted bread. I did not like dry
sandwiches, so I made them with sauce and mayo and added some heat.
I ate much of it before placing them in a basket and heading to his office. I asked for directions on my
way and arrived there.
The office was beautiful. It had a reception and all. I wondered if this was what the Luna’s office would
be like.
I waited in the reception and was soon asked to go in.
I wondered what he was doing in the office on Sunday, but I did not need to wonder much when I
entered the office and found a pretty brunette in the office with him.
She looked sophisticated and alluring and was a delta like me. Only that she was a pure high-born, not
a halfling like me. She also seemed to be into Alpha Leo.
“Oh good, the help is here. I am famished,” She said, turning to look at me, and she screamed from
shock when she saw me. My eyes had that effect. I believed I was the only one with those eyes.
“Can she see with that thing?” She asked, referring to my eyes. Alpha Leo ignored.
I greeted Alpha Leo and refused to greet the bitch. I was also a bit defiant about it, and Alpha Leo
noticed. I did not care. There was no way he would fire me for her sake. I did not care who she was. I
did not work for her.
I went to the table to arrange the food.
“Leo, she is rude,” the woman said, and he chuckled.
“She didn’t do anything, Leah. You said you are hungry. You better fix yourself something from Amelia’s
basket because I doubt she will serve you,” he said, chuckling, and I heard the woman growled.
“I am a guest in this pack. I came from the north to pay you a visit, Leo. The least I could get is some
respect from your staff,” she complained, and he said nothing.
I served the sandwich and took Alpha Leo’s plate to him. Then I went out of my way, placed one
sandwich on a plate, and dumped it in front of the woman.
She looked at the plate with disbelief.
“I thought you asked her to make it for two?” She asked him, and he looked at me.
“Well, I ate my share, miss, and I do not share my food,” I said to her blandly, and Alpha Leo chuckled.
“It’s Miss Clayman,” She corrected me, but I did not care. I had passed my message.
” I am sorry I did not explain it better, Amelia. You may go. I will share mine with her,” he told me, and I
was a bit pissed.
I made that sandwich good for him. I would have made a dry one for her if I knew she was in his office.
“I doubt someone with Miss’s figure would appreciate that sandwich alpha,” I said, packing up the
basket and heading out.
I grumbled all the way back to his house.
When I got there, I found that the door I had locked was left open. I hurried inside, and I could pick up
the scent of an omega. It wasn’t Macy’s scent, so I was curious.
I knew only Macy was allowed to come to his house. I checked the entire bungalow and did not see
anyone. Maybe they had come to see if I were around and left. I did not bother about it and found
something productive to do.
Alpha Leo returned in the evening with Leah Clayman, and Aurora began to boil. I never accepted the
rejection, so I will be in pain if anything transpires between them. I did not prepare for this.
The woman entered with a small travel bag and looked about the place as if it was a dump.
“Why do you live like this? With all your money, you choose to live like this?” She said.
“Tamia chose the house, and I loved it.” He said that name rang a bell because it was the same as the
evil Queen’s name. I wondered who this Tamia was.
“Well, your ex-wife now lives in the palace and is Queen. You should upgrade, you know,” the woman
said, and I was dumbfounded.
I cursed at myself for not being vast in current events.
I should have paid more attention to what was happening in our world. How could I when I was busy
trying to survive?
I knew the King was the Queen’s second mate, but I never imagined that I would be fated to her ex-
husband. I did not want to jump to a conclusion, but I was now curious because I suspected his
behaviour toward me had much to do with her.
“Take my bags to the room,” Leah said, and I stood still and waited for Alpha Leo. She wasn’t the boss
of me.
“Fix the small guest room,” He told me, and I nodded, glad she won’t be sleeping in his room. I noticed
the woman wasn’t happy. She came there with intentions to seduce him. I could see it.
“A small room?” She asked.
“Yes, Leah, I wasn’t happy you could not book a hotel. I will find you one tomorrow. There is a guest inn
in..” He said, and she shook her head, trying to stop him.
“It’s just a week; I will manage,” she said, clearly knowing he would get a room but wanting to be in the
same space with him. I wondered who she was, but I wouldn’t make her stay pleasant. Servant or not,
Alpha Leo was mine.
