Slaved To The Alpha

“Grant! They’re here!” He just told me as he was trying to catch his breath.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

I didn’t know who he was talking about, so I just assumed that it was another high ranking guest of some sort, so I just told him to guide them to the entrance where I’ll be waiting.

He then calmed down a little and just left the room. I, on the other hand, was still taking my time in the dressing room, a couple of minutes later, that very same man came back to my room again. “Grant! Are you still going to take long? I’m sure that we can’t keep them waiting.” He told me in a very nervous tone of voice.

At this point, I was starting to realize why he was rushing me to get out there and actually greet them.

“It’s the Alpha family, they are already here, they have been waiting for you for the last ten minutes.” He told me as he began to get frantic, but I just stayed calm since that’s what I have to do in order to not cause a panic.

“Okay, okay, just calm down and tell them I’ll be on my way, you should’ve told me earlier that it was the Alpha family that was waiting for me.” I told him in a serious tone of voice as he looked terrified and just rushed to get back out there, I just finished up everything I was doing at the time and just went for it, I went and left the room I was in, and headed straight to the entrance to finally meet the Alpha family, even if they are furious, and would probably yell at me, I know that they won’t since I am the host, they might look at me with a deadly glare, but I’m sure that’s it, they won’t do anything irrational that will make them more unpopular.

I just headed to where they were waiting and just greeted them with a smile, pretending I didn’t leave them waiting for me for fifteen minutes or so. “Hey! Alpha Jaster! It’s so good to see you again!” I greeted the head of the Alpha family first to show respect, but I had zero respect for this stupid Annual Pack Gathering.

I was met with laughter, joy, and smiles. I was expecting them all to be grumpy paired with grumpy faces, but no, I think they were all eager to actually meet me as well as I was eager to meet them in person.

“Grant? Look at you! Hosting this year’s Annual Pack Gathering! Hopefully you’re doing a good job on it!” He told me with enthusiasm in his tone of voice, he then shook my hand a couple of moments later, his grip was firm, but not what I expected from the head of the Alpha family.

I then turned to the woman standing beside him. Lalisa, I looked at her and kissed her hand. I think she is the wife of Alpha Jaster, maybe his second wife. “A pleasure to meet you!” I told her with a huge smile on my face.

She looked flattered and her cheeks were blushing, I found this a little weird, but I just took this as a compliment. “Oh, the pleasure is all mine Grant, I think that you are wonderful! Goodluck on tonight’s event!” She told me with a sincere tone of voice, I couldn’t tell if she really meant it or not, she is either a good liar, or she is just kind.

For a couple of moments, I smelled something very dear to me, something familiar. It was my favorite scent, lilacs! I wouldn’t mistake that scent for anything else in the world.

Oddly enough, after I smelled the lilac’s scent, I felt weird, I felt something off about me, but I just ignored it since nothing looked off about me at the moment.

Then I saw someone standing near Mario and Alpha Jaster, it was their daughter, Asthrid. When I saw her at that moment, she wore a very bright red dress with flower accents on the side, her hair was flowing, it looked like it was soft enough to sleep on, she is gorgeous, but oddly enough, I wasn’t attracted to her in any sort of way, I was just staring at her beauty, but that’s all there was to it, nothing else. I thought that I would fall in love with her or something, but I had said to myself before the night of the Annual pack gathering that I will reject whoever is my fate, my true love, and I still intend to keep that plan in mind.

But why was I feeling weird, the smell of the lilacs was a factor of me being odd, but that’s not all there is to it, there was something else, it wasn’t the Alpha Jaster’s daughter, I didn’t feel anything earlier when I stared at her, then I saw her.

She was the one making me feel butterflies in my stomach, my feelings were being sent mixed signals, I saw her, carrying luggages from the Alpha family’s car.

She was their maid! She was the one making me feel weird things, even if Asthrid is gorgeous, looks just don’t cut it, it doesn’t cut it.

After talking to the Alpha family for a couple of more minutes, I just told Alpha Jaster. “I’m terribly sorry, but I must get going, I need to take care of something.” I just said without any hesitation, even if they are the Alpha family, I needed to know something badly.

I didn’t hesitate getting out of their faces to find out who she was. For the first time ever, I was determined to see who she was.
