My low-born Omega

Afraid of something

Karina's POV

My entire body were aching after I got home from work. I still need to do the laundry and that includes Lucas' dirty clothes. I'll be washing them together with mine, but I'll separate them when dying of course. It's already been a month when I started working in his place and after that morning incident, it has never happened again since I've finally got a medicine that works on me during my heat. It was way more expensive than the normal ones though. But still, I'm happy that Lucas wouldn't have to lay a hand on me again just because of my heat. It's almost been three weeks the last time we did it since I'm making sure that we won't be having s*x even I'm not in heat, just like how he did it last time. He didn't have to help me with that again.

After drying the clothes, I decided to go back in the kitchen to cook something to eat. But while walking at the hallway, my feet froze when I heard my name from the living room.

The voice is obviously from Niccolo. Who else screams my name like that anyway. "Alpha, I'm telling you that you wouldn't regret this lady. She's a grand daughter of a late Duke. She has a blood of a royalty family and serves a high reputation in their community. You should at least meet her."

I almost couldn't believe about the things that they were talking about. Like they're talking about nobility and stuff, like I don't get how does it relates to them since they're business man. And this Niccolo is trying to hook Lucas again to another lady named Bianca which he said came from a royalty.

"Niccolo, how many times did I have to tell you not to interfere about these kind of matters. It's my personal stuff and you don't have to worry about that." I don't why, but I kind a feel relieve that he's not going to see another woman.

"Huh?! How can you tell me not to interfere? I'm telling you this not as your Beta, but as your friend. Though I totally respect your decision but can't you at least reconsider? It's been a month that you didn't see any female alpha or beta because of that omega."

Tch! This Niccolo, he hates me not because I'm an omega but because he thinks that I'm not good enough for his master. Huh! As if! I don't have any kind of feelings for Lucas since he's an alpha, so why is he so worked up just because we slept together during my heat. It's it normal for an alpha and omega?

Can he just leave Lucas alone? This is not the first time that I heard Niccolo persuading Lucas to meet someone. It's not like Lucas will agree to meet other female, he'll just going to reject just like how he used to.

"Hays.. you know that I've been so preoccupied about work so I didn't have time to play around. Alright, I'll meet this woman you're saying. Since it's been so long since I had a grip on myself."

What? He agreed this time? But why, I thought he'll going to reject just like before?

"Wonderful! Just in time I had a message from Ms. Bianca this afternoon that she's in the city for a business. I'll arrange tomorrow's date for you two tonight."

"I can do it. Instead, you should check the proposal plates that were sent to me by the SJ group before forwarding it to me. I don't want to waste my time checking them myself."

"No, you don't know what's Ms. Bianca's likes, so I'll handle everything Alpha and just relax tonight. Anyway, I'll better be going."

"You won't eat dinner here?"

"Nope, I already had my plans. Goodnight Alpha."

I felt like I was dumbfounded while clutching myself in the corner, when my legs stiffen for standing in such a long time.

Ack! I shouldn't have eavesdropped when I had my chance. This habit of mine is getting worst. It's fortunate that I still haven't found even this time since I'm trying hard to conceal my pheromones while listening to them.

When I heard Lucas went up to his room, I immediately went to the kitchen to cook for dinner.

So he's really going to see her? Why do I feel so bad about the idea of it? It shouldn't be bothering me since I have nothing to do him. But why do I feel pain inside my chest?

I can't stop thinking about it that it motivates me to do better so I won't be a disappointment just like how Niccolo would describe me. After cooking the dish, I knocked on Lucas' door to invite him for dinner.

"Hmm?" He hummed after he opened the door.

"The dinner is ready. I cooked something special for tonight you should try it." I uttered it like a kid wanting to let my parents see my drawing.

"Okay, I'll be there." He said, so I went back to the dining table.

When the two of us got seated, I served him the food and watched him took a spoon of it inside his mouth while waiting for his response and feedback to the food that I cooked.

"How was it?" I asked excitedly.

His face made an unreadable expression that I can't tell if he likes it or not. "Hmm not bad, but I like the dishes more that you usually cooked for dinner."

"Ah haha really? Well, it's my first time cooking this, so that's why it's that perfect yet." I said trying to defend myself from the embarrassment I'm feeling.

"It's okay. Let's just enjoy the food that you cooked."

My head were down the whole time I was eating since my face and neck feel burning out of embarrassment. I can't believe what am I doing with myself.

After eating, Lucas went back to his room after giving his gratitude to the meal.

I mean, he didn't have to say that the dish was good when the food wasn't even that tasty compare to other dishes that I always cooked for him. Even though I did my best on making it delicious for him, I still failed.

I feel so afraid about something inside that I really want to make an impression to him. Why am I even trying so hard, and for what?

This is seriously driving my crazy.
