"Bella, what are you thinking hey!" Rumi's rebuke disturbs Bella from her admiration for the glittering atmosphere of the city's only international airport, bringing her to the realization that she has gone so far from her village.
"Yes, Rum," Bella replied while trailing behind her senior who has fifteen years of experience working in a mysterious place that promises extraordinary fantastic pay, a place called the pack.
"We have to take care of immigration procedures. After that, while resting, we are waiting for a pick up from one of Mr. Alpha's men, they will take us there… it will take quite a while to drive by car." Without being asked, Rumi had already told them what they would do in a short time. "Hopefully our employer will be kind, Bella ... because there is a possibility of a change in leadership, his son is already at the right age to become the new leader." She continued.
Bella smiled in agreement. The thought of the life of a maid who was tortured while working for an employer made her shudder with horror. After this, it was impossible to think again. She had no choice but to finish her two-year contract, stick around and try not to complain about anything. Bella herself was adamant when her mother and siblings did not agree with her decision to become servants in a place she had never heard of after her father died in a traffic accident.
Bella's reverie was stopped by the encouragement of her colleagues who were queuing to pass through the plane's courtyard. She immediately apologized to the person behind her while hurriedly taking a step.
They were all escorted to the immigration check gate which was guarded by several people.
"Bella Rosemary?" The investigating officer stuttered Bella's name as he looked at her investigating. You can speak English?"
"Yes, Sir," Bella answered.
The clerk smiled kindly, "Oh! You can speak English?"
Bella smiled back, "Just a little."
"And, what is the meaning of your full name?"
"A woman ... and a beauty?" She answered with a questioning tone.
“Beautiful name. You came from Asia, right?"
"As you see, sir."
"Good luck in this country," said the investigator as he returned Bella's passport.
"Thank you," Bella replied, nodding and walking away from the examination door. Rumi who was waiting for her immediately pulled Bella's hand.
“Bella, remember! This is a different place, especially in our workplace ... be careful and behave...don't be too nice.
"What's wrong, Rum?" Bella doesn't understand. She could not understand why her seniors would scare her with such words."They have different customs. The men over there can instantly choose who they like ... then .... Umh you better not smile or look ugly! That's better!"
Bella laughed at the words of her senior, "Okay, Rum, I won't repeat it next time. Thanks for telling me."
They then line up to pick up the luggage with the prospective helpers, their place of work is called Pack, with a great master called Alpha, needs a lot of new helpers ... Rumi said Because there will be a big event. "After getting your baggage, you guys stay where you are. Soon there will be officers who collect data. Got everything?"
As a senior assistant, Rumi helps inexperienced prospective maids like Bella with her explanations a lot.
“Remember our master's name is Mr. Alpha… You can die on the spot if you call him other than that. Don't look at their faces ... look down, and stay still. When asked, you can talk," said Rumi again. The woman in the middle age of thirty had to half scream to get the attention of her group.
Bella looked at the employer's name on her passport. Alpha Tomas. There is only the writing without any other frills. She frowned in confusion.
"How is this pronounced?" Rene, a fellow worker, approached Bella and handed her the passport of her migrant worker.
Bella accepted, then glanced at it. "Al ... fa ... To ... mas." Spelled Bella helped her partner.
"Oh! So the name is Alpha huh? "
"Yes."
"Thanks, Bel."
"You're welcome, Rene."
"When will our employer pick us up, Rum?" asked Bella.
"It depends on the person who picks us up. Usually, outside, employers are lining up to take care of correspondence. They are usually big masters who need people to hurry help with his work."
They were still sitting waiting and suddenly another immigration officer arrived with a middle-aged man wearing a dark tuxedo suit. The man looked more like a European.
Bella — as well as the other women in the room — saw how respectful the officer was when he greeted him. After they talked for a while, the immigration officers called Bella's name. Bella hesitated to come over to the two of them.
"This is the people, sir!" The officer spoke to the elegant-looking blonde man politely.
Bella nodded her head in greeting the person who turned out to be focused on looking at her as if he was evaluating.
"Do you speak English?" he asked in a stiff, authoritative voice.
"Yes, sir."
“Good. I hope you understand my instruction. My name is Draco, head servant of Crescent Pack, the place where you and all the ladies will do your job."
"Nice to meet you, sir," Bella said softly.
They chatted for a while before finally Mr. Draco, the butler of the Tomas Black family, who was waiting in the waiting room to come with him. There is a handover file between the employer and the prospective migrant worker that they must sign.
After all the paperwork was done, Mr. Draco led them to a car that was large enough to accommodate all the girls, while he sat next to the driver.
Mr. Draco then explains who Tomas Black's family is, as well as the tasks the girls will be doing. They would all be servants in several Packhouses ... a kind of private pavilion, one of which was the pavilion that belonged to the only son of the Tomas Black family, Prince Remus Black.
Bella — just like other workers — did not think that the family she would serve as a kind of aristocrat in that place... Because they needed so many servants.
"Don't forget to always use the title 'Alpha' when you do work for him."
'Alpha? Such a weird title!' She taught.
Bella and the other girls nodded in understanding. “Use the same title when you served the father of His Highness Remus Black." The car they are in arrived in front of a high brass gate guarded by several men dressed in strange clothing. However, as far as the eye could see, Bella did not see a single building standing behind the high fence. All forests. After passing through the gate, they crossed a thick paved road which was very smooth until finally, Bella could see a magnificent building standing proudly behind a large and old grove of trees. Bella stared in awe especially at the green watery oasis surrounded by orange flowering plants, creating the illusion of splitting the gap between the lush trees and the building. "Welcome to the Cresent pack," Draco said proudly. "Welcome ... and behave," Draco said again. As if he was giving both a welcome and a warning. “The Tomas Black family is the second richest f
"Repeat again!" Miss Rowena ordered the umpteenth time."All plates and glasses must be clean from dirt as well as fingerprints when presented to Alpha.""Fine, miss," said Bella before finally returning to her job.Since becoming a servant at the Tomas Black family house, Bella has been tasked with cleaning dishes. It might seem like a trivial task, but in fact being the plate maid at the Tomas Black family home is a very tough task. Dinner and lunch have become very difficult times, because they are used to eating together. There might be more than twenty people.There are hundreds of plates and divided into several different sets categorized according to the country of origin of manufacture. Elegant cutlery from France and Italy, classic-style porcelain from East Asia, simpler craftsmanship in Switzerland and the Netherlands, and fine gold and silver fixtures handed down from previous presidencies. Bella
Bella felt the touch of a large hand hugging her body, while another gripped the back of her head, holding her back from hitting the hard marble floor. The presence of the helper was felt through the weight of the body on top of her, making it difficult for Bella to breathe.Her body, and that of the stranger, rolled several times across the marble floor and the haystack. Bella isn't sure she is alive, but a gust of warm air on her face made her realize that she is safe.Slowly Bella opened her eyes. What she saw for the first time is the silhouette of a face obscured by the light."Are you okay?" The question is in English, but the accent is very sexy."Y-yes ...," Bella replied haltingly. Her breath is gasping because she is still in shock."How can you be this stupid?" asked the voice again. "Didn't anyone tell you that this horse is very dangerous?"Bella didn't answer that
The pack life is not suitable for Remus at all. He is given everything like a king. His status as the sole heir to the Alpha title in this place made everyone bow to him while walking, they would always say 'Yes,' to whatever he says and give anything he wants.The only entertainment in this place is Panther, his beloved horse. A Stallion that only obeys when he touches the horse. He would ride and stroll around with the horse all day long, huh .. he would prefer his horse rather than to attend his father's formal meetings with the other alphas. From the bedroom window, he could see that many alphas from the other packs had arrived. Some of them brought their families, and that only meant one thing. One thing he hates the most.Matchmaking.He didn't even know, and couldn't stop thinking. Why would the alphas family from another pack want to bring their daughter and be presented to her, even though they know that ... Whoever bec
'Remus, get back to the packhouse..now!' An order from his father via telepathy. One thing he hates in this pack is telepathy. His father and the rest of the pack can relate and communicate with him telepathically, it is very noisy and there is absolutely no quiet time for him, like what he feels right now. 'Right. Alpha. ' The answer is forced. He is not a father for him, he should be called alpha, because his father has always positioned himself as an alpha, never as a father. Remus grew up without any parental affection, he was raised by one of the senior servants, that's why he prefers to stop this cycle. He doesn't want to be the alpha in this pack .. he prefers to live with humans, and stay away from the pack. Live a normal life like any other human. "Ah .. here it is... Remus." Alpha Black said to his guest when Remus walked into his father's study. Remus saluted his father, he also bowed slightly to his father's guest who sat in front of t
That night Bella received orders from Miss Rowena to join the maids who will be serving their employers' dinner."I have to bring a dinner plate for His Excellency Mr. Remus? But… but..." ”Bella stuttered in surprise at her senior's orders."Just do it!" snapped the curt-faced woman. "Quickly take the silver plate from the storage room. Dinner this time in a European manner. ""Fine, Miss." Bella went to the storage room and still couldn't help thinking about the order. Rumi who had heard Miss Rowena's orders was waiting there."You're so lucky," she said, grinning."I don't know, I'm surprised myself," Bella replied, reaching for a silver plate and a cup from the same set. "I have to go before Miss Rowena calls," she said."Wait!" Rumi grabbed Bella's hand. She took something out of her pocket. "Let me wring your eyes first with this." Rumi opened the lid of a small object shaped like
Bella immediately panicked at the command. Even so, she continued to advance while the other servants turned around and walked away from her."Your Majesty, she's a new servant. There may be a lot of mistakes in your service. Do I need to be here to watch her doing her job?" Miss Rowena asked doubtfully."No, let her do it alone.""Very well, Your Majesty." Miss Rowena bowed her head respectfully, then her gaze turned to Bella."I hope you don't forget what you learned the other day. Don't do anything wrong. " The woman gave her junior a final warning.Bella nodded respectfully before Miss Rowena walked away, leaving her alone to serve their master.After Miss Rowena's departure, Bella returned to pay tribute to her employer. "May I do the preparations now, Your Majesty?" She asked quietly while keeping her head down."I don't want to eat yet, but please pour me some tea.""
Bella tried to move because she was startled, but because she was halfway under Mr. Remus's grip, she couldn't move much. Over the shoulder that hugged her, Bella could see a woman dressed in a typical European female robe standing looking at them. Her beautiful face was blurred in Bella's eyes, which were fixed on the sharp eyes that stared angrily. "Remus! What are you doing with ... ”That woman stop her sentence to examine Bella's appearance. Her eyes suddenly widened when she realized the uniform that became the identity of the girl in his nephew's arms. "Jeez !!!" She exclaimed disgustedly. "Waiter?! What a joke....are you trying to make our family sink with disgrace, like this?" "Sorry if you saw it." The nephew answered without hesitation. Not at all the normal reaction of people caught making out with a waiter. "Why is my aunty, here?" The questions are answered with other questions.
