Mated to the Wolfless Omega

His study I

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 he wouldn't come home and she should just go to bed. Despite that, 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 hurried back to the dining room.

"Welcome." She said, but sighed when she didn't hear anything from him. He just walked towards the chair in the dining room and sat down. She watched as he opened his food and took the cutlery to eat.

She was surprised at first. She didn't expect him to eat the food she made that night. She had even prepared only his food, thinking that he wouldn't eat it and that she would eat it instead.

But there he was, eating calmly even though he looked so stressed and uncomfortable. His clothes and jacket looked rough and dirty, but Amelia did not think too much. One thing she wouldn't do was interfere in his business.

She used that opportunity to express her problem instead. "I'm sorry that I'm talking to you over your meal, but I wanted to ask for something really important to me." She said, but seeing that he wasn't talking, he was just holding the fork in his hands without eating again, she continued. "My phone. I need you to return it."

She waited for him to say something, but two seconds passed, three, and until a minute passed, he didn't say a word or look at her. She heard him drop the cutlery on the table before walking out of the room.

"Didn't he hear what I said?" She asked herself as she kept looking at the food he barely touched. She wanted to tell him about school first, but she thought it would be too forward, and seeing him not reply to any of it, she got sad. "Did he pretend not to hear? He surely heard. At least, he could have replied. I should tell him again tomorrow."

The next morning, she woke up early to cook breakfast. She waited for him to come downstairs but didn't see him. "Has he gone out again?" She asked herself, but she knew he was still in the house. She woke up early just to make sure he didn't leave before her, but still she hadn't seen him. "What the hell is going on? How could it be today, of all days?"

It was already ten a.m., and the other maids were already coming into the house to clean. She also thought of leaving his food to go do her chores, but she couldn't carry her mind away from what she wanted to ask him.

She knew he might not allow her when it comes to the school part, but she still wanted to try her luck. When she couldn't take it any longer, she went to meet the housekeeper, who was giving instructions to some maids in the living room.

"Good morning." She greeted her, to which the woman also looked at her as if shocked. "What do you want?" The housekeeper asked, looking at her with a sneer.

But Amelia did not care about how she reacted. "I wanted to tell you that the Alpha hasn't come down for his breakfast yet, and I think he's still inside his room."

"He's at home?" The woman asked, surprised. The Alpha was never at home during weekends or holidays. He would rather go out late in the morning than be at home. And they also know they can only clean when he's not around. "Why didn't you tell me beforehand?" The woman asked before telling the other maids to leave the house immediately.

"I didn't know. It's just weird that he hasn't come down yet when it's almost eleven." Amelia said. She also felt like something might have happened to him. He looked so strange last night.

"Do you think we should go check him in his room?" She also realized what she had said. Why was she so worried? Could it be that it was more than what she wanted from him? She saw the way the woman was looking at her. " I just thought we...

She hadn't finished her words when she heard, "Lead the way, but just so you know. If the Alpha gets angry, I'll make sure you pay for it."

Amelia wanted to disagree. "Why should she pay when the Alpha was surely going to get angry, but still she just nodded.

They both walked up the stairs and walked towards his room. They both stood in front of the white door. Amelia's heart was already beating so fast that even the woman beside her could hear. "What are you waiting for? Knock." The housekeeper commanded, to which the girl also nodded.

She stretched her shaky hands towards the door and knocked lightly. The housekeeper was also scared, but there was nothing she could do again, especially when the door had already been knocked on.

They both waited for an answer, but didn't hear anything. Amelia knocked again, and this time louder, but still she didn't hear anything.

"Are you sure he's at home?" The woman asked, before moving closer to the door to knock, but still no answer. "Open it." She said.

"Open it?" Amelia asked, surprised. She knew the woman was trying to avoid trouble for herself, but she also didn't want to get into trouble. "I don't think we should open it. What if he's inside?" She whispered, but the woman just looked at her and sighed.

She placed her hand on the doorknob herself, and opened the door slowly, but as the door opened, they didn't find anyone inside. "Alpha Aiden." The woman called out in the room, but no response. "See. I told you he's not inside. Just clean the room and stop all this nonsense." The woman said before walking out of the room.

Ms Jones couldn't believe she had followed her. She sighed and shook her head as she walked away from the room to go back downstairs, but before she could walk down the stairs, she looked towards her right side and saw the door of the study opened. "So he's in the study." She said before taking a step forward to leave, but suddenly paused. "It won't be bad to teach her a brief lesson."

She turned back towards the Alpha's room, and saw Amelia, who was still looking lost in the room. "Hey, I just saw the Alpha enter his study, and he said you should bring his food to the study."

"You saw him?" She asked with an expression the woman didn't know what to define. "But I thought I wasn't allowed to go to the study room."

"Yes. And I don't know why he suddenly changed his mind. Just go on time." The woman said before turning away to leave, while Amelia just stood in that same spot, confused.

She didn't understand why he would tell her to bring his food to the stud she wasn't allowed in at first, but she didn't bother to think much about it. All she could think of was just to tell him about the school.
