Alpha 218

Natalia’s POV

I walked to the lobby area while enduring other people’s gazes. There was a curious look in their

eyes, which did not surprise me.

I left the company in a really bad mood. I took a cab and headed back to the coffee shop.

The day was bright and sunny. My hands were bathed in sunlight as it came in through the window.

When I lifted my hand, I took a close look at my fingernails.

They were shining in the sunlight. There was no blood, no cut, and no crack.

I curled my fingers as I fisted them.

My eyes were drawn outside the window. I did not see a single person walking with peace. They

looked in a hurry and were anxious about their daily lives. I wondered if they also had problems in

life, just like me.

My life and fate both changed their colors.

How was I supposed to take this? How long would I keep working in a coffee shop and thinking

about saving my brother? How long would I have to wait for my brother to wake up and make

everything right?

I leaned back against the seat and closed my eyes. I put my hand on my chest.

‘Is there still a heart? Why is it even beating? I should have been the one to endure all of this, not

my brother.‘ I thought.

Why was there no solution to my fate? Why could I not be happy at least once?

All of my life, I had to live with my abusive parents, and when I found the person I loved, he tore my

heart in a way I would never repair.

Then, I found my real family and began to live with them and my children.

But once again, all of my ways were closed. I had nowhere to go. I felt the Moont Goddess was

really angry with me for some reason.

Otherwise, why did she give that man so much power but make me helpless in front of him at every

step in my life?

“Miss.”

I opened my eyes and found the cab stopped beside the coffee shop that I worked at.

“Thanks, brother.”

It looked like it was my only destination now. I paid the cab driver and got out of the cab.

I looked at the glass walls and found the employees were taking orders from the customers. Inside,

everything looked spotless, as though they were not getting ready to fill orders for hundreds of

coffee cups.

I entered the coffee shop. Immediately, the bell rang over the door, indicating that someone had

entered the shop.

I glanced at the old customers, the young boys and girls who always stopped by the coffee shop. I

gave them a small smile, though I was exhausted inside.

Raising their coffee mugs, they smiled back. I gave them a nod and made my way to the counter.

I was feeling nervous. I had no idea what I was going to say to Liana. How was I supposed to break

the news to her that the order had been canceled? We were not delivering the coffees to Alpha

Adrian because I was not going to his company ever again.

It came to my attention that Liana emerged from the changing room while she was holding her

phone close to her ears.

“Liana.”

She looked at me with a smile. But her focus was on the person she was talking with over the

phone.

It came as a complete surprise to me when I overheard her having a conversation with the other

person.

“No worries, Alpha. I will take care of it. Thanks for continuing the order.”
