Chapter 6: First Experience

Olivia

"Olivia, you can go home now," Darren said, I had just given him the last file to sign and he asked me to go home, I looked at my watch, it was still 8 pm, he never asked me to go home so early.

"Is there nothing I can do, sir?" I said.

"No, and you can take a week off," Darren said.

"What? But why? I mean, I'm fine, sir, why should I take my leave?” I said.

While I was working with him, I never took my leave, but that was because I didn't need it yet and I was still fine with my pregnancy, even though now I could see my stomach growing a little.

“Just do what I say, and go home now,” Darren said, he put the paper out of his hand and looked at me.

The Alpha's gaze made me unable to say anything, I just nodded and left his room with lots of questions in my head, but I didn't mind if he still paid my salary.

It doesn't feel like I've been working there for 4 months, I've also set aside my money to save and buy several things for my apartment. I moved from the simple flat to an apartment that was a little nicer and not too far from the office so I could save more on my expenses.

For 4 months, maybe I looked fine, that's true because my current job means I can't think about anything other than meetings and Darren's schedule for the next month. But when I'm at home, honestly it's not a good thing for me.

That feeling still sticks with me, behind my destruction because of Hunter's treatment of me, I still think about it, what is he doing there without me and our baby?

Is he happy and forgetting me because he got what he wanted?

I always think, whether 5 years with me, there is not a single day that makes him miss me, or miss the memories of our time together.

I was playing a movie in my room, leaning against the headboard of my bed with the popcorn I had made earlier. I missed him tonight, that's why I did what I always do with him.

The mark on my neck hasn't even disappeared, I still belong to someone, it's just that he may never want my presence. Sometimes looking at my stomach and remembering that there is a baby in it makes me not think so.

This is what we have been waiting for for 5 years and it came a little late, or maybe I realized it too late, if I had obeyed him that night and let the doctor come to examine me, the end wouldn't have been like this.

Hunter would choose me over that Omega, of course, I'm his Luna, and I'm the one destined to be with him until death do us part. But knowing the news of Omega's pregnancy made me very disappointed, there were no problems in our marriage apart from children, and I never thought an Alpha like him would have the heart to do that behind my back.

Without thinking about how his father and I would feel if he knew about this.

Ah, talking about his father, I haven't heard from him for a long time, I always ignore his calls until he no longer contacts me, I feel guilty because I disappointed him but I know if I talk to him maybe everything will be worse.

'Beep..Beep..'

From Leo: Did Darren ask you for a day off?

To Leo: Yes, I can still come if I'm needed

From Leo: Is there a problem?

To Leo: No, what's wrong?

I waited for his reply but he didn't reply anything, did I do something wrong?

Because Leo's question made me uneasy, I felt like something was going on and yes, that was also a question in my head since he didn't give me a reason why I had to take a week off.

The sound of an incoming call surprised me, I immediately took my phone and found Leo calling me.

“Hello,” I said.

"Are you waiting for my call?" Leo said.

“Aish, your question makes me curious, what happened to him? He's your older brother but you asked me about the problem that happened to him," I said.

"I don't know, he looked gloomy when he came home and I asked what happened to him but instead he told me that you wouldn't be coming to the office for the next week, so I asked you," Leo said.

“Wait, he just came back home? But it's almost midnight, he let me go home at 8 pm," I said.

"Is there any problem? Meetings or other schedule matters?" Leo said.

"No, everything is fine, even next month's schedule is full because many people have applied for collaboration with him," I said.

“But why did he ask you to take a week off when he needs you to help him? I can't possibly help him, I already have a lot of work to do," Leo said.

"Do you think I'll still come to the office tomorrow?" I said.

"That is your choice, But as long as he asks you to take a week off, I think you should obey him," Leo said.

"Okay, but please call me if you see him having trouble, I will come to the office immediately to help him," I said.

“What about your Alpha? Would he mind if—”

"Leo, you know where my Alpha went so don't talk about it anymore, I'm going to sleep now, bye," I hung up the phone on him and took a deep breath before turning off my TV.

At first, I didn't intend to tell anyone about my life, but Leo was the only one there to listen to my story so I had no other choice but to tell him what happened to me and Hunter.

Of course, as an Alpha, he felt quite embarrassed by Hunter's attitude, perhaps because their pack had many strict rules that prevented Alphas and Omegas from doing as they pleased.

Even though Leo didn't know Hunter, he knew about their pack. Leo only supported me because he thought I had made the right decision to leave his life even though I was pregnant.
