The Omega For Sale

“Jessy?” I called out once I got closer to her door. The silence coming from her room was too suspicious.

And I confirmed it when I pulled open her door to find the room empty. Greyson had been having series of meetings since that morning and Jessy kept insisting on being around him in the way that she was getting used to. I had no doubt that the little minx had found her way there in the last couple of minutes that I left her alone to play by herself.

I sighed heavily before moving towards the office door. Knocking softly, I silently hoped to not be disturbing the meeting. Once I heard Greyson’s voice inviting me into the room, I pushed open the door.

“Hi Freya!” Smith’s voice greeted me first and I offered him a wide smile. I hadn’t seen the Beta since I left his home and I had been hoping to catch up a little with him after the meeting.

“Hi Smith!” I called out, giving him a small wave which he returned before turning my attention back to Greyson.

Who currently had a sleeping Jessy clinging to his chest. I shook my head slightly at them both and approached his table.

“I’m sorry she interrupted your meeting. I only put her down to play, while I helped in the kitchen. I was hoping she wouldn’t try to come in here again after my several warnings.” I said, reaching out for her.

“It’s okay. She fell asleep almost immediately I picked her up. Let her sleep here, she might wake up if you try to move her. I’m almost done with my meeting anyway.” Greyson said, still holding on to Jessy.

Offering him a small smile, I nodded, dropping a small kiss on his head before exiting the office.

I headed towards the kitchen and it was to find Christie and Naomi preparing the last bit of dinner.

“Where’s Jessy?” Christie asked the moment I walked into the kitchen.

“Stuck to Greyson’s chest.” I replied, moving to the sink to wash my hands and the two girls began laughing.

“I knew she would definitely try to go to him and Master would let her.” Naomi said and Christie nodded in agreement.

I only shook my head at the two girls before I began serving the food into bowls. Cooking for Greyson was still my favorite thing to do and although I was no longer his maid, I still did this particular job and there was nothing the Alpha could say or do to make me stop doing it.

“I’ll start setting the table.” Naomi said and exited the room.

“You’ve been quiet. Are you okay?” Christie asked and I offered her a small smile

“Of course.” I replied but The other maid only continued to watch me with suspicion.

I wasn’t lying at all. It was only that I felt a little tired and sick but I knew it was because of the fact that I hadn’t gotten enough sleep during the night. Hopefully this was going to be a better night and I would be able to sleep better.

I heard Greyson and his officials coming down the stairs and troping into the living area and I moved out of the kitchen.

Most of them were moving out of the house but Greyson was currently engaged in a conversation with Simon’s father. The man had been nothing but nice to me since we met but maybe because of the way his eyes remained on my frame for so long, I always felt uncomfortable around him.

“You okay?” Smith called by my side and I turned my attention towards him.

“Of course. How was your meeting? It lasted for a while so I’m hoping it was productive.” I said.

“Yeah, well we got most of the serious issues out of the way so we wouldn’t be bothering your man for a while, you can have him to yourself again.” Smith said and I chuckled.

We stood in silence for a few seconds and I watched as Smith shuffled in what looked like discomfort.

“Would you like to join us for dinner?” I offered, but the Beta shook his head, giving me a small awkward laugh.

“No thank you. Maybe next time. It’s always nice talking to you Freya. Take care.”

And just like he was walking away and heading towards the door after a last goodbye to Greyson who was rounding up his conversation.

Greyson headed in my direction, Jessy was now awake in his arms and she was currently running her fingers through his hair.

A recent habit she had formed, since she discovered how soft her father’s hair was. I caught her eyes and my daughter offered me a small shy smile.

“I thought I told you not to go into his office Jessy.” I said, but my four year old only ignored me hiding her face into Greyson’s neck, causing the later to chuckle.

“Please leave her alone Freya.” Greyson said and I rolled my eyes at the two.

“Are you hungry babe?” I asked, stroking her cheeks fondly.

“Yes mommy.”

“She ate all my snacks during the meeting, I don’t know how she could still want more food.” Greyson said playfully, placing Jessy in her chair before moving to the head of the table.

I sat to his right, like had become a habit for us and we settled down to eat like a family. It felt like I wouldn’t ever get used to this because every single time it happened felt surreal. I couldn’t believe that the Goddess had given me such a perfect family.

“Are you alright sweetheart? You look tired.” Greyson said and my stomach bubbled with butterflies at the endearment, just the way it did every time.

“I am. I’ve not been sleeping great.”

“Do you want me to call Clara to check up on you? She might be able to help.” Greyson offered.

And on one hand I wanted to take the offer immediately because I really was struggling to sleep. Sometimes I managed to fall asleep but it was never for very long as I always managed to wake up earlier than normal and at other times I just stayed awake till very late before I was drifting off and waking up every thirty minutes until I got frustrated and got out of bed. So maybe the healers help would be welcome at this point.

Plus I also wanted to speak to the older woman, but not tonight. Honestly, all I wanted was to be with Greyson for the night. I had just really missed the man during the day and now I was craving him more than ever.

“No, no. I’ll be alright.” I assured giving him a small smile which he returned.

Once we were done with dinner, I began pilling up the dirty dishes.

“I think you should leave that. Someone else could take care of it. Go prepare for bed and I’ll join you soon after I tuck Jessy in.” Greyson said and I nodded my head.

I watched father and daughter exit the room and the smile that painted my lips could split my face in half. It was so blissful to watch them together and they both made my heart feel like it was bursting out of its cage.

Christie came into the dining room before I could leave.

“Thought I heard you all leaving.” My friend said.

“That was Greyson and Jessy.”

“You look like something is bothering you Freya. Please talk to me.”

I sighed heavily, rubbing my eyes gently before turning completely towards the maid.

“Have you noticed anything lately with Zoe? Did anything happen when I left or go wrong?” I finally asked and Christie furrowed her brows in confusion.

“No, I don’t think I’ve noticed anything. Zoe has always been weird and keeps to herself most times so it might be hard to tell. What’s the problem though?”

“I’m not sure, it’s just that last night when I came down for a glass of water. She began apologizing for something she supposedly did to me and she was crying seriously.”

“Jess-” Christie began saying but I shook my head, interrupting her before she could continue.

“It’s not Jessy. She said so. Something else that was weird, is that she had a glass of water to her lips when I came in and when I spoke and startled her, she let go of the glass breaking it in the process. I promised to clean it up and after she left, I set out to do exactly that but what I noticed was that there was no single spill of water on the floor.”

Christie’s brows furrowed even deeper.

“If there was no water in the glass why was she holding it to her lips?” Christie asked and I shrugged.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“That’s what I don’t know too. Plus her apology just makes me uncomfortable for some reason.”

“I could talk to her if you want. I know she has been keeping to herself lately and I’m not sure if she’s alright.” Christie offered and I nodded my head.

“Thank you Christie.”

I made my way towards the masters bedroom and when I got to Jessy’s door and heard her singing the alphabet song, it made me smile. I didn’t stop to check on her, since I didn’t want to distract her and so I continued towards the room.

After a warm shower, I settled on the chair in front of mirror that was attached to the dresser and dried my wet hair while letting my thoughts roam.

My mind was barely at rest here in the mansion, I was usually always worrying about one thing or the other. Thinking about Emilia and now Zoe, sometimes I felt like I was on the edge of going crazy.

The door was pushed open and Greyson walked into the room. I raised my head and my eyes immediately connected with the Alpha’s and the look within his grey orbs caused a shiver to run down my spine.

That look could only mean one thing.
