Reedah's Pov
"What did you just say ma'am?!" I bellowed, letting out a shocking gasp after listening to what Vivian's mother was telling me.
I heard a slight chuckle from the other end before she replied, "I mean it, Reedah. Don't be too surprised, since you're the best pack tutor, you should be expecting something like this from us."
I gasped for more air to enter my throat as I heard her saying those words. Well, don't blame me for being so surprised. It was no easy feat for even most pack members to enter the Pack House, more or less being honored with an invitation!
Unbelievable!
"I still can't believe it, ma'am," I said, truthfully and my student's mother giggled once again.
"Why don't you start today?" She threw another shocking question and I almost lost my breath this time.
"You… you mean, today?" I sputtered, still unable to grasp the sudden news.
"Yes, Reedah, my children will be so excited to see you," she uttered, her voice soft and pleading.
It truly was happening and I wasn't dreaming. Maybe I should give myself a hard slap to wake up?
Ahhh! I wanted to scream but I controlled my emotions.
I took a deep breath before finally coming to terms with the invitation. I had to accept the proposal, because why not? I was going into the Pack House to teach!
Awesome offer!
"I will be right there, ma. Give me a few minutes," I promised.
"I'll be waiting," she uttered and soon ended the call.
I became restless as I found it difficult to even press my fingers on the screen of my phone because of how shocking the news had gotten to me. I still couldn't believe I could become a private tutor for the Pack House meant for Royal children? Was I dreaming?
Never in my life would I believe anyone who told me I was going to one day enter the Pack House, the most difficult place you could ever set your foot on. Whosoever gets the chance to go into the Pack House of Silver Spring Pack mustn't be an ordinary pack member, more or less an Omega like me.
It was impossible.
But then, the Beta's wife called me and asked me to come tutor her children there since they were told never to ever leave the Pack House due to how restless they behave if they get out of there.
I was filled with joy and happiness. I've never been so happy in my life before. Seriously, I was entering the Pack House for the first time ever since I was born.
"Why don't you come today?" Vivian's mother's voice rang in my head again.
In no second, I was already hurrying out of my cottage, arranging my teaching books and everything I would be needing into my handbag. I almost ran my way to the pack house that was a few meters away from home.
After a few minutes, I stood at the entrance of the gate waiting to get entry from the Pack guards that refused to open up the gate stating they needed to confirm if truly I was asked to come teach my students in their home.
I guessed I waited for almost ten minutes before one of the guards, who seemed like their head, signaled his hands, telling his colleagues to let me in.
"Hurry up!" A guard yelled when I started to take slow strides into the pack house.
It was as if I was entering into a furnace of fire. The same way I was excited was the same way fear gripped my heart. What if something goes wrong?
What would be my punishment especially now that I was already in the monstrous Alpha's abode, Alpha Jasper. The most powerful Alpha all over the territory. Alpha Jasper, someone you shouldn't mess with, someone who wasn't scared of death or afraid to eliminate anyone that comes in his way.
He was a rude, arrogant, brutal Alpha feared by everyone in the pack including his friends.
My eyes scrutinized the Pack house and my mouth parted ways in amazement. Just as expected and how those who had gotten the chance to enter into the Pack house had described, it was a big fancy mansion. It was so gigantic that each time I passed through the huge gate, it was impossible to see what the rest of the pack house looked like.
"What are you still standing there staring at?" The guards that were asked to lead me into the pack house broke into my thoughts and I came back alive.
"What?"
"Can't you move?!" One of them snapped.
It was then I remembered why I had come here in the first place. I apologized for my rash ignorance and hurried after them as we made our way into the Pack house.
I was soon led into the Pack house and it didn't take us a minute before we got to the Beta Wife's abode.
"Good day, ma'am," I greeted Vivian's mother with a genuine smile on my face. I know I might appear stiff because of my fear, but I truly appreciate her.
Her gaze traveled to my direction, a sweet smile curled on her lips as she trotted towards me, spreading her hands to receive my hug.
"It's nice to meet you in person, Reedah. Oh, what a beautiful girl you are!" She bellowed, complimenting my look while I stood, smiling back at her.
"Nice to meet you too, ma'am."
She made some gesture, "Come, come, follow me to the kids room, they've been anticipating you," she gushed out and I chuckled, excessively.
We got into the kid's room and after lots of greetings, I began my teaching. As the Pack tutor, I teach the infant pub some certain things they need to know about themselves, how they are different from humans and many more.
"How do we know humans when we see them?" Vivian asked and her two siblings nodded their agreement.
I smiled at them and squatted to their level. "Through their scent, you can detect a human," I told them but their expression was looking all confused.
"You will know a human when you see them. Their energy is weak unlike us," I added for more understanding and it was then they changed their countenance.
I continued my teaching until Vivian told me she was in need of water. I looked around the room and saw that there was no water in the bottle they had in the room. When Vivian saw my facial expression, she smiled reassuringly.
"I will go ask mom for water."
"Yeah, sure. I will appreciate it," I said, nodding my head.
|Few moments later|
Vivian wasn't back for over five minutes and it got me worried. "Where could she be? I thought she only needed water," I said to myself as I gaze at her other siblings who were busy with writing down what I've taught them. "Cassy?" I called one of them.
"Yes, Teacher Vivian," she answered.
"Finish up your work and stay back inside, I need to check on your sister," I told her and she nodded her head.
In no seconds, I was out of the room as I began to call out Vivian's name but she wouldn't give me any answers. After checking the whole chamber and still couldn't find her, I sniffled in the air to catch her scent and discovered it was far away. Where the hell did she go?
Without hesitating a bit, I headed for the door and went outside, not after shutting it to avoid the other kids from coming out too. I trembled as I took slow steps through the passage, hoping that I would find Vivian as soon as possible so I wouldn't get into trouble but then, Vivian's scent seemed to go farther. I became scared. Her mother wouldn't like it all.
I continued to hurry through the corridor when suddenly I sniffled in a scent. It was a sweet strawberry fragrance, very alluring and it made my body become very active. Before I knew what was happening, I began to trace the scent and not long after, a hand suddenly gripped me and I saw myself inside another chamber with someone, pinning me aggressively to the wall. Where was I?
