Chapter 5 (Amber's Curiosity)
After one hour and thirty minutes ride they immediately arrived at the Mansion of Artesian. A large black gate will open for you automatically, Upon entering... they turn left towards the car parking area. Amber saw a different kind of car model which is new to her, mostly each car are very expensive and have a rare design. Bri got out of the car and quickly opened Amber's door, she led her to walk towards the location of the big house.
They both walk further to the right,
Amber saw a wide expanse of bermuda grass at the opening, it is surrounded by large and tall pine trees. In the center there is a circular structure fountain with a statue of an Angel holding a jar, you will see some lily that floats at the water, and it's just so nice to see the surroundings, clean and fresh.
They both continue to walk at the path leading into a wide stairs towards the big house, but before you get inside, you'll pass a patio where Zach often had breakfast, Amber looked up and she saw that the sun is about to rise.. the patio is illuminated by its light. Theres a large white stone table with benches similar to its design. Amber was really fascinated with what she saw.
"Wait... seriously? This is Alpha's house?" Amber asked, her eyes wide with surprise.
"Wow, it's huge... I wasn't expecting this at all."
"as you can see, the design of the house of the Artesian family is simply pleasant and pleasing to the eye, from the structure of the house to its furniture, the furnishings are really expensive and of good quality. everything you see belongs to the Artesian family for so many decades, which Alpha of the North had already inherited." Bri's long litany.
"Why? where is his family!? doesn't he have a family?" Amber asked
Bri faked his smile.. and turned towards Amber's direction
"Zach's entire family including his mom and dad was simultaneously attacked by bandits wolves who came from the Western part of the continent. Bri said mischievously. "In other words, Zach's parents passed away at the same time..." he said in a serious voice.
"Oh..! I'm sorry I didn't know.." Amber said
Bri shook his head .. "oh no.. it's ok...! actually it's a long story, you'll be about to know all of that when Zach tells it to you in person. Besides that is not a secret" Bri winked at Amber while talking.
"You know..!? that's the reason why all of them are saying that Alpha is Cruel, well... yeah..! it's true he is so Cruel and rude as we all know, it is because bitter experiences and bad memories really change a person's behaviour, and I'm expecting that you will be a great help so that his true personality can return.
I missed the old Zach. I remembered him as being cheerful, kind and a loving person." Bri looked at the inexplicable void as he said those words.
"Hmm..! the personality of this Alpha is too mysterious, wait a minute..! and what will be my role in the life of that Cruel wolf!?" Amber thought
Bri interrupted Amber's deep thoughts
"come and I will introduce you to mother Zita the Alpha's butler.!, mother Zita has been serving the Artesian family for about thirty five years. she is a human not a wolf. Bri smiled while saying it.
They both walked towards the kitchen where mother Zita was preparing the guest's breakfast.
Amber was amazed at every detail of the House, even the kitchen has expensive furniture and appliances, with a combination of white and black colour.
It looks like a Modern Mediterranean
Ambience. Apart from the things she found out about her Big Boss... there were many surprising things in the house that really amazed Amber.
Curiosity knocks at Amber's thought, and she wants to know everything about it.
She's normally very curious about so many things, and that feeling is not new to her, right now she's a bit excited about what would happen to her in the hands of an Alpha.
.... at the kitchen she saw an old lady wearing a butler uniform, she's about five feet and two inches tall which is normal to her body structure. A petite body. If you look at her she looks like a primary school teacher, she's wearing a reading glass and she looks so kind in her appearance.
"Hello Mamita..! Bri's endearment to mother Zita.
"Amber I would like you to meet Mother Zita..! it's Mamita for short, Mamita this is Amber the new personal secretary of our boss, from now on you'll be with her every day." said Bri
Hi Mamita nice meeting you... Amber instantly hugged and kissed mamita at the cheeks as a sign of respect.
"Oh, there you are...! come sit down and eat, the food is ready" Zita's eyes showed joy
the food served on the table looks delicious, Amber felt hungry. so she quickly sat down and was about to eat.
"What did you prepare for breakfast Mamita? a familiar voice was heard..!
it was Zach.
Amber immediately stood up, not knowing what to do first. She felt awkward in the situation, this is the second meeting between her and Zach, but it's as if electricity runs through her entire being every time she sees him in person.
A silly smile appeared on Zach's face. he could feel Amber's loss of track while looking at him, he knew that he was cornered Amber in that situation, and to cut the awkwardness that Amber felt... he immediately turned his gaze to mimita and smiled. He sat on the chair in front of her, so now he could see Amber's trembling lips vividly, and as he gazed at her lips, a warmth sensation flowed to his core, he needed to control his feelings, so he immediately spoke.
"Aren't you gonna greet me Amber!?" he said
Amber was surprised by what Zach said, by the way.. why was she suddenly felt confused by the situation!?
"Uhhm.... G-Good Morning Mr. Artesian" a trembling voice came out on her.
