Alexa's POV
The taxi stops by the side of the road, just by 7 Scent Avenue. I pull out my luggage from the boot of the car, raising my eyes up to see the beautiful house. I was told by the manager of the agency I work for that this belonged to just one family.
Coming from the Beline Pack to the Avelon Pack is quite an uneasy task with the heavy traffic on the road and not-so-good roads at some spots. On my own, I would love to stay and work in my Pack but I had no choice when I was selected for the role of being a nanny to the baby of seven baby daddies. I suppose they had a mate and perhaps something happened to her.
Even if nothing would scream luxury, the pay alone being eight thousand dollars a week is enough to tell me that it's a wealthy family, so being chosen for this job is a privilege. I needed at least two hundred thousand dollars for my brain tumor surgery. I'd only have two years left and a possible chance of survival should I undertake this surgery. This made me jump right into accepting the moment my boss assigned me to his role. I didn't care where I was being taken to, all I needed was money. As I approach the address given to me, my attention drifts towards the identity of these baby daddies. I haven't been curious like this before.
I was asked by my manager to dress officially, so I put on a Royal blue fitting gown reaching up to my knees and a pair of black heel shoes. My hair is straightened, falling to the back, just above my ass. I applied a little make-up on my face to make me glow, I didn't want to look seductive being that I'm going for work and there's still a chance of getting rejected by the clients even after being selected by the agency I work for. This made me so cautious, I'm working to fight for my life. I can't be careless.
Aside from my luggage, I have my black handbag with me, typical of a young twenty-three year old nanny like me.
"You need to look confident, put up a slight smile when you meet them and show yourself capable, lest you would be returned even after successfully passing to have met the eligibility criteria." I remember these words my manager said to me before I began my journey.
“Glitz Care is a top care agency which supplies the best nannies to families all over the world, so you must represent our brand well.” These words never leave my head. I memorize them as I take a walk to the said address.
I was told to reach by 8 AM, so I left my pack by 6 AM. Peering over my watch, it's 7:40 AM. I'm a few minutes early.
I brace up, taking a deep breath as I walk in through the entrance door of this huge estate just located by the side of the road. My mind begins to recreate Lucy's advice of how I should behave.
I walk towards the reception to introduce myself as the new nanny, perhaps there's a permit to get. I take this to consideration, it could be one of those things observed.
I met with a young lady, supposed to be in her early thirties. She's dressed in white shirt and a fitting black skirt. I can't see her shoes since she's behind the desk but I guess she would put on a black heel.
"Good morning, Alexa."
I widen my eyes slightly as she mentions my name. She smiles, observing my expression. "I know you're quite surprised how I know your name but since you were accepted, your resume has been with us even with the Alphas you would be working with--"
My eyes flared open, it hit her too at this moment. The identity of the family is being kept a secret until you meet them.
My brows arch and I pull my face closer with my gaze fixed on her. "But which Alphas?" My lips hang open as I continue to stare at her.
Did I just hear Alphas?
Seven Alphas?
All I had in mind was an ordinary family not some fucking Alphas. I know it seems as though I'm already rejecting the job but everyone knows how Alphas can be possessive, arrogant and cold, especially to Omegas like me. She shakes her head as a slight grin escapes from her lips while she taps on her system.
"I'm not expected to tell you. You're here, so you'll know. That was just a slip of the tongue."
I quickly pull out my phone, tapping on Google. Then I type in Alphas of the Avelon Pack. I didn't really care much to research about this pack, in fact nothing about it concerned me except for the fact that my celebrity crush belonged here.
Dustin Bennett is a famous leader of the pop boys band, 7Rocks, as pertaining to the fact of being seven in number. I'd always had a crush on him right from high school and some day wished to marry him, I researched and found out he has six identical brothers of which he was the second.
Whatever controversy about him, as some people claim he's transgender doesn't apply to me. In the werewolf world, there are no scientific means to change one's gender. It must have been a cause of rebirth or evolution as the moon goddess might have wished for him. No one really knew much about his history and his brothers outside of the Avelon Pack. I would say this is one pack that is the most secretive in the world.
For a second, it seems thoughts had taken my mind away but like a film fading off my eyes, my sight drops back on the screen of my phone. Seven gorgeous men line up on my screen. My jaw drops the moment I realize they all share the same face as my pop idol.
I slowly lift my eyes to the receptionist in front of me, then back to the screen. Then suddenly, my wolf turned into a deep, overpowering aura which completely filled the whole space. It was like being in the middle of nowhere the moment the atmosphere changed. A sweet, charming scent filled into my nostrils, Alphas often have this strong, alluring scent but this wasn't just alluring, it took my mind back to five years ago. Then my baby was taken away from me and that's the last time I ever heard of her.
I drop my face on my palms, shaking my head. I'm tormented by this scent but I quickly realize I'm here for a job, I didn't have to let emotions from the past set control over me. I have time to grieve about this later on in private.
"Oh! You're here? Turn around, let me see you!" A strong, commanding voice looms in the air. My muscles are stiff.
