Slaved To The Alpha

He just smiled at me and looked relieved. “You can always count on me! That’s a promise. I mean, have I ever let you down?”

Is this supposed to be a joke? I literally just met him not too long ago. Of course, he has never let me down. Is he being sarcastic or what? “Are you serious? Be careful with your choice of words, Greco, and you wouldn’t want to break anything. If I were you, I would not make a promise you can’t keep. But if you think otherwise, then go ahead.” I said to him in my serious voice as I looked at him like I would go crazy if he did something that would anger me.

I wanted to emphasize that I do not like people that lie to me, especially those who break their promises.

“I know I can keep this promise because I just said it. I know what you mean. I hate people that break promises. That’s why when I make a promise to someone, I always try my very best to keep it. I don’t know what you’ve been through regarding this matter, but you don’t know what I’ve been through as well, so let’s just agree to disagree? Does that sound good or?”Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

He did have a point though, we both don’t know each other’s experiences, as well as our history. So we don’t exactly have any right to judge each other, but it’s still up to us whether to trust each other or not, and I’ve come to the conclusion that Greco was worth trusting. My instinct was just telling me that it was the right decision. I wasn’t regretting it in the back of my mind, which would usually indicate that what I’m doing is right, and I believe in it myself.

“Yeah, let’s agree to disagree. Sorry again for earlier. I was just a little startled when you said that I told you the thing that was supposed to be a secret. And I guess I was just mad at myself, I wasn’t mad at you, but I was just taking it out on you, which isn’t fair at all.” I told him what I felt. I was a little angry at myself since I couldn’t even keep my own secret all to myself.

“Really? Well, thanks, I guess, for not being mad at me. I like you. You’re honest, you’re confident at the things you say, you always have the guts to say what you want, but I guess not to your master, huh?”

I sighed and just looked dejected. “Yeah… But that’s all I need to put up with, luckily, I don’t have to fight with her whole family, or I might not even make it out of there alive when I get older.”

He just laughed and smiled at me as he looked like he was amused with my relationship with Asthrid.”Asthrid sounds like a handful. From what I’ve heard, she likes to tell her servants that they are no more than a service to her like she doesn’t even treat them like packs. I know that it’s normal for a master to look down on their servants, but I never really liked the idea of them looking down on others. I’ve never really been fond of the idea since I’ve never really been a master, nor have I ever served someone else. I guess I’m my own master, to say the least.” He said in a confident tone of voice.

I, on the other hand, have been serving since what? Since the day I was born? Maybe not that early, but maybe in my youth, I might’ve started when I was still young. “Well, she is a handful, I have to put up with so much from her and the Alpha family, but if they heard me say that right now, I’m sure I would be on my way to prison right now since you know how dramatic the Alpha family can get. But it’s just quite refreshing to finally let all of these thoughts out, even if I let it out on someone I only knew for about a day. So, Thank you again. I am telling you all of this because I fully trust you right now, Greco, and I hope that you feel the same as well for me.” It was really the first time I was this comfortable with someone besides Fravis. It felt like I was talking to him right now.

“Thank you for trusting me, and I’ll ensure that this will only stay between the two of us and no one else. This includes Grant and the Alpha family. So just sit back and relax because you don’t have to worry about me.” He smiled at me while pointing to himself, and he felt confident about himself. It was actually quite charming since it is one of the great qualities I found attractive about someone.

Krisna’s POV

The way we are talking at the moment, I’m sure that the way we are talking right now, I’ll forget that I still need to train, so I had to ask him again. Every time I asked him if he knew some place where I could train, I didn’t know how he does it, but he could always change the subject without me even noticing. It was like his only superpower besides being charming and, hopefully, having experience in combat. Who knows? He may be the one that could serve as Fravis’s replacement at the moment while he isn’t here. Well, there’s only one way to know for sure. “Hey Greco, before I forget, I asked you this earlier, but then the subject changed and all that…” I was a little hesitant to ask him since I was a little shy.
