Slaved To The Alpha

Asthrid’s POV

Ugh, that was the host? I get why he was chosen as the host, he is charming, quite handsome as well, I mean, almost every girl I know would fall heads over heels for him, that includes me, but why did he look like he was in a hurry, argh, I didn’t even had the chance to tell him about myself, my interesting personality, and my perfect self.

I wonder what he was thinking inside of his head, on our way here, I was already imagining him as the perfect man to be my groom to be, I was literally imagining everything to be perfect as possible, in my mind, he was going to be the first one he would greet, with that smile of his, but no. None of that happened, instead, he was late, making us wait like a bunch of morons, and greeted my Dad first, is this really possible? Did he not see my face at all, I’m very sure anyone, any man will fall in love with me at first sight, and he just abruptly left me and my family without even saying anything, I mean who does that.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Asthrid! What were you doing? He was already in front of us, and you were just standing there like a moron, haven’t I thought you better?” My stepmother started to get angry at me, it wasn’t my fault that he just left, I’m sure it’s my stepmom’s fault, since she’s always so full of herself, she might’ve scared him off, he was my chance at a perfect man, but no, they had to scare him off.

But, I’m not entirely sure if it was her fault or the entire family for that matter, it surely wasn’t mine, he left before I could even show off what I can do, I could’ve easily won him right there on the spot. I can’t control myself, I feel like I want to…  I need to punch someone in the face right now or I would just explode from the inside, I can’t believe he made us wait for that long and just leave a couple of minutes later without even saying a word, I don’t think I would be fine after that, where is Krisna? She must be behind this, no one, ever has the guts to tell us to wait, and then leave. Krisna must have done something to Grant, otherwise, he wouldn’t have left that suddenly, he should’ve been charmed by me, he should’ve been captivated by my beauty, and no one else’s.

While my step-mom was yelling at me, she looked furious as well, but it’s a good thing that I couldn’t care less about her opinion. I caught Krisna at the back of the family, she was just standing there like a complete tool, I know that she must be behind this.

“Krisna! What did you do to our host? Were you not told that you shouldn’t talk to people that don’t meet your standards? Especially Grant! It’s your fault he left me and my family hanging earlier, that handsome and charming jerk!” I was furious at her the moment I saw Krisna, she was easy to spot since she really stands out from the crowd, I just looked for the person that was dressed like a homeless person.

She would really stand out, unlike others that were wearing dresses fit for the occasion. I can’t believe she didn’t even prepare anything for herself, I was literally handing out hints to her that the Annual pack gathering is where almost every pack will attend. But then again, tomorrow is the Annual Pack Gathering, we get to rest for a night before the main event, who knows, she might have brought her own dress, but whatever that dress is, she won’t be able to outshine me, to think a maid would be more good looking than who she serves, impossible.

The moment I was walking to her, she knew I looked angry, she looked like she was about to run for a moment, but before she could even think about any of that, I grabbed her by the hand, and was able to control her easily. “Please, let go of Ms. Asthrid, I was just standing here.” She told me as she looked like she was begging for her life, this is good since she is still scared of me.

“Yeah! You are standing here right now! But what were you doing earlier huh? You think I wouldn’t notice? Are you really testing my patience Krisna?! You think I would let this slide?” I am fuming, she acted like she didn’t have a clue about what I was saying, but she wasn’t fooling anyone, especially me!

“I’m sorry Ms. Asthrid, but I don’t know what you are talking about… I think you may have made a mistake, I don’t remember doing anything aside from doing what you told me to do earlier.” She still won’t confess, I think that she won’t tell me anything anytime soon.

This woman really, I know she had something to do with Grant, but I don’t know what exactly, but I know she was the one behind him acting frantic earlier. “Are you calling me a liar? Is that what you’re implying? I am not lying because I know what you did!” I kept yelling at her, but she was just calm, still wouldn’t give in.

“I just brought your and the family’s luggage inside like you told me to, they are all organized by name, inside of the rooms, besides that, I did nothing else, I was just standing here until…”

I didn’t let her finish what she was saying since all I thought of it was just a bunch of nonsense. If she didn’t do anything, the host, Grant, wouldn’t have acted like that earlier, she must’ve threatened him in some form of way, I will find out what.

After giving her multiple warnings about telling the truth, she still kept on hinging on that same answer she told me earlier, which I know is a lie. “You’re not going to tell me anything? What did you do?”

“I told you everything I did earlier Ms. Asthrid, I did nothing else, I swear!”

I looked at her right in the eyes when she said those words to me, then I smacked her right on her head, I hit and hit her multiple times, I was planning on hitting her until she tells me the truth, that she did something to the host to make him act like that, but before I could make her break, some old lady intervened and grabbed both of my hands, the audacity of her to even touch me!
