Capítulo 3: Inside The Heart Of An Omega
Merrick inquires Halsey to rest, after getting to the gazebo, these is where they usually come to when he was around her.
Merrick brought a bench for them to seat on.
"Thank you" Halsey appreciates. But Merrick replied with a smile and he sat next to her and stared into the lake along with Halsey.
They both stared at the lake and after some time, he asks her "If you were offered any easy task than this shitty job you usually have to endure would you?"
Of course she will. Who wouldn't?.
She has anted to do easy task rather than the hard task she is forced to do everyday.
Where she usually gets bullied.
Halsey was not comfortable with these, she was surprised by the sudden concern Merrick is showing towards her, originally, he helps her but not cares for her these much.
But she nodded slowly, excited to leave the overbearing head Omega lead.
"Okay, that will be good. Okay then let's forget about all these. Are you in for Sushi and then pizza?"
She quickly nodded in response.
Merrick's smile grew at Halsey.
"Okay, come with me!." He drags Halsey from the gazebo and walks her to his room, he ask her to settle down.
He scanned her dress, giving her a look of pity as he questions, "I think you have to change your cloths, you look ragged. You know, I have these dress, and I would like you to try it on. You are always wearing these tattered cloths, it does not look good on you"
Merrick's expression was that of displease.
She was not expecting to see him care these much, she could feel he has different motives. But she was not going to say no to this rare opportunity and she is going to try the clothes on. After all she has only two dresses so, what will be bad in dressing up?.
Moreso, it would not hurt to have some sumptuous meal and get dressed for the day, she can be able to end her day without being bullied unlike before.
These information brought realization to Halsey's face as she consumes the Sushi and then he offers her the Pizza as he had promised.
All of these caring from Merrick are all new to her. She did not know why he is being kind towards her,but she was sure she would unravel his reasons soon enough.
After some hours that she and Merrickhad hung out and he had brought her he food as promised, Merrick gave her the dress and he forced to give her privacy before she could change into the dress.
Halsey had been feeling uncomfortable unlike before 5hat Merrick would just galce her way and act all kind to her. But she always knew it was all a facade.
While she was consuming the meal, she caught Merrick staring at her, he was scheming something in his head but she could not grasp them.
Since she was dressed up in these black sleeveless knee length gown, he was ogling her.
And she was beginning to get uncomfortable with him.
He wanted to say something.
And that was when he spewed it.
"Halsey"
He started.
"You are so beautiful"He said, Halsey knew it, he had ulterior motives and she was not feeding him whatever he wanted.
She liked her new look too, she did not know she could look these good. Though she was aware of her own beauty, but lack of better accessories to display them was her problem.
But she did not dress up for Merrick,
She was saving herself for her mate.
"Thank you". She muttered in response.
"Um, how about I make you Damon's mistress?". Merrick proposed suddenly.
The question caught her off guard, Halsey was expecting him to seek for her heart, or something close.
But making her an egocentric, cold hearted and repugnant, Alpha, Damon's mistress?.
That was not expected.
Halsey did not like the Alpha one bit, and according to rumors, he was in love with Arianna.
The Alpha, Damon, is not usually around the pack house. He was always out. Only few people get to see him. And some other doesn't,some others like Halsey.
For some reasons unknown to Halsey. She only knew his name, but she has never met him before.
She was never going to be Damon's mistress all because Merrick was a good person to her.
"I _i am sorry but I can't. I really am grateful for helping me all these while, but I- can't. It will only cause much t-rouble if I try to compete with -Arianna. And may I ask why you say these?" She stutters out.
"That would not be hard, I no longer want to be constrained by Arianna, I will always ensure Damon loves you_"
"You -cannot force Da-mon to love me when he is in love with some-one else. Especially my potential enemy. I am sorry but I cannot". Halsey apologized, fiddling with her fingers, there was no way she was consenting to that offer.
"Okay, how about I tell you the reason?".
Merrick pushes,
"The only reason I am doing these is because, I don't want Damon for Arianna, I don't want to be a pawn in her game. She always make a fool of people just because she is with Damon. So I intend to insert you as his lover by Damon's side to diminish her position In Damon's side. And it is not true that Damon like her. I do not believe that, he does not seem to like her. And truth be told he only respect women in general. And he does not make it known that he is with Ariana because she is a strong factor in the pack. Her father been the factor itself"
Halsey listened as carefully as Merrick explains these to her. She fiddles with her necklace, thinking over, if what Merrick is telling her is the truth then will the Alpha even accept her?.
Halsey leves her necklace that she was fiddling with and looked back into his blue eyes and could see the weariness in them. He was telling the truth.
But was she going to let go of her determination to keep herself for her mate because she wanted to leave this hell hole and make enemy of Ariana?.
Oh and Damon, he is like the highest of the food chain.
The man is a billionaire and she is pretty sure he does not even now she is the one that makes his meals whenever he is around.
Because Arianna usually tell her to make them. Then she would lie to Damon that it was Ariana who made the meal.
She is in the least bit bothered though.
How would she refuse Merrick?
And how was she sure the Damon would ever fall for her?.
