Chapter 15: Arrogant man
As dinner approached, Damien requested that his food be brought to his room, stating that he would not be dining with the rest of the people. Aurora reluctantly accepted her unfortunate fate, realizing that as long as the Alpha was in the mansion, she would always have to encounter him, even when she didn’t want to.
She now regretted her promotion to her current position, finding it more troublesome than she had anticipated.
"Come in," she heard him say before entering his room. It had been over five years since she had last been in his room, and it appeared more beautiful than she remembered. Of course, she had only spent one night there, so she hadn’t had the chance to appreciate its beauty.
Damien stood by the window, holding a file in his hands. He was dressed only in his pants, his upper body exposed.
’What is he doing?’ She thought, immediately scolding herself for her panicked reaction.
"Would you just stand there?" His voice startled her, pulling her out of her inappropriate thoughts. She moved further into the room and placed his food on the table, deliberately avoiding his gaze to prevent herself from having further improper thoughts.
"I will take my leave now," she said, not waiting for a reply as she headed towards the door.
"Wait!" He called out suddenly, causing her to stop in her tracks. She hadn’t expected him to call her back when she was already feeling flustered.
Damien slowly walked towards his dinner and scanned the dishes, but he couldn’t find the tea. Arrogantly, he asked, "Where is the tea?" refusing to admit his fondness for it.
