All Chapters of A MAID(TE) FOR THE ALPHA: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

~ Ava ~One hour into teaching Eugene about the contents of the book he chose, I noticed Benjamin leave the room. He left the door ajar and stayed outside for roughly ten minutes. I heard murmurs from the outside. The voices were his and Mister Malcolm’s, but I couldn’t exactly detail out what they were discussing. Eugene’s happy singing filled the room as he created his house origami. It hindered me from hearing their words clearly.Origami was one of the activities the children at the orphanage loved, especially Little Brianna and Kitty. I thought I could teach Eugene this too, and it turned out he also loved it.Minutes later, he invited me to play at his inflatables. I agreed, standing up from the desk and nearing his play area. There was a pool of balls near him. Suddenly, he threw some at me. I threw two balls back, and that consequently started our silly ball fight.His laugher reverberated across the room. It was beautiful to hear. I was glad I could make him smile, even just

~ Ava ~My skin hairs stood on end as I waited for who would step inside the room. Yes, I was afraid it would be Alpha Darius. My mind was totally going gaga thinking about our eventual meeting, but to my relief, Eugene walked in, wearing a kiddy bathrobe, and simply moving in his childlike self, munching on some dried plum he pulled from a pack on his left hand.He closed the door and walked past the living room to his bedroom. When I realized he didn’t notice me, I decided to speak: “Good morning, Eugene.”His head quickly whipped to where I stood. His face flashed with happiness thereafter.“Ava! You’re here!” he shouted as he ran towards me with open arms. I kneeled on the ground and took him into my embrace. He squeezed my chest and suddenly sobbed.“Hey, why are you crying?” I asked, gently rubbing his back so that he’d feel comforted.“Because I’m happy you returned,” he answered while he buried his face on my shoulder.Oh, goddess. This boy had certainly captured my heart. He

~ Ava ~I felt better when Alpha Darius left the gazebo, but the way he dine-and-dashed left me wondering why. Of course, I already knew he couldn't stand my presence at the same table, but must he have to leave us after I made that sound? Was he disgusted with it? Or did he think I was trying to seduce him because it sounded erotic?What a prick.Trying to cool my temper off, I directed my attention to the boy who was still having the time of his life eating the dessert. It was true. The ice cream banana split was really good that I had inadvertently made that sound. Now that Alpha Darius wasn't with us, I let myself loose. I moaned as much as I could and Eugene, as innocent as he was, happily moaned, too.We were enjoying our time together until Malcolm told me about the tour. Eugene immediately volunteered to head it, telling me he wanted to bring me to his favorite spots in the manor.Malcolm and I were happy to give him this chance. We walked to the pool and the nearby gardens an

~ Darius ~'Don't worry sir, when I leave, I'll make sure you won't come running after me.'What the fuck did she just say?Me, running after her?Huh. That's absurd.She actually had the guts to say that.As expected, my temper rose, disliking her words. If not only for Eugene's presence, I would have already dissed her; give her a piece of my fucking mind. Instead, I remained silent, picked my sleeping nephew up and exited the limousine. Good thing we were already at the manor. I couldn't stand being close to this woman any longer.Seconds later, I heard the car door open and close. It told me she disembarked, too. I continued the path to the main entrance without looking back, but the stuffed puppy toy Eugene bought dropped to the ground. She hurriedly picked it up and handed it to me. I didn't take it."Give it to him later during your lessons," I said and quickened my walking. I didn't need to hear her reply or her voice. It would just irritate me further.Plus, I didn't want to

~ Ava ~Dred drove me from the manor to Aunt Grace's house in a matter of minutes. The big guy was a pro-driver. No wonder Alpha Darius gets from his office to the manor in record time.When we arrived, he parked the sports car in front of the house and got out. Luckily, he didn't insist when I said he stay outside the main door. I didn't want him to see my father and I had a firm belief he was Alpha Darius's spy, so I couldn't afford to invite him inside.Like his boss, Dred gave me a silent arched brow. I replied with a fake smile just to lighten the mood and thereafter entered the house.The second I was inside the living room, my father's scent reached my nose."Father?" I muttered and slowly neared the kitchen. He was sitting on the barstool drinking some juice while Aunt Grace was busy pulling something from the freezer."Ava!" He quickly stood up and hastened his steps to me. "I missed you, my daughter," he whispered as he embraced me tightly.I was honestly taken aback. I wasn
