Chapter 17 Mr and Mrs Netherfels

The Society. Nobody wanted to be a pariah, being part of the society meant you were somebody, you achieved something. The society could chew you up and spit you out or make you raise to the top. Noble people were most welcomed and desired as everybody sought their companion and wanted to be noticed by an earl, baron or the duke. Recently new group of people has been added to the society, the rich ones. Being a noble person doesn't always equaled to being wealthy. Quite often the nobles were on the verge of bankruptcy than marrying a nouveau riche might be a life saving matter, thus marriages of that kind occurred more often. Mr and Mrs Netherfels were an example of such marriage.

Mrs Netherfel was a plain plump Beta in her thirties, her father was a successful merchant in vine business. Her husband was the second son of baron, tall, lanky Alpha with piercing blue eyes a bit older than his wife. He had that sophisticated look of being bored wherever he was, as if his presence was a gift to the host. His blonde hair were receding but he kept the appearances by trying to comb his hair from the back of his head to the front, to cover the missing spots on his forehead. It looked kind of funny.

He was sitting stiff next to Mr Reyes drinking whiskey suggested by her Master while Arya was placed next to Mrs Netherfel. The food was served and some small talk followed now it was time to make the right impression.

"Aria, please play for us, something classical." Mr Reyes said it with a light smile.

Aria stood up and sat down at the piano, her fingers were moving swiftly and the music filled the room. Both Mr and Mrs Netherfel were watching her playing and Arya made sure to look professional. As soon as she finished she heard Mrs Netherfel praising her skills.

"Well Mr Reyes I see you have taste for fine things." Mr Netherfel noticed. "This young girl seems to be very talented."

"Yes, Aria is my little gem." Than he looked at his Omega "Arya please show Mrs Netherfel the rose garden we've been talking about. Mr Netherfel and I will gladly have a cigar and talk business."

"With pleasure Mr Reyes. Mrs Netherfel it will be my honor to show you around the garden."

Mrs Netherfel stood up giggling.

"Well, I must admit I'm very found of roses. My mother had a nice garden behind our house but it was rather small. There were some fine species inside though …

Arys smiled but she wasn't listening anymore, that talkative woman will for sure cause her headache. Before leaving Arya released some of her pheromones on purpose to distract her Master as a small punishment for sending her away with that silly woman. Mr Reyes noticed it and his look became stern.

"That's a fine Omega you got yourself … Was all Arya could hear before leaving the room with still talking Mrs Netherfel.

Twenty minutes later and half a kilometer of wandering around the garden Arya has learned about all the roses Mrs Netherfell has ever seen, touched, smelled and admired. The plump Beta had no need for Aria to respond, she only required a person with two healthy ears. Arya was nodding form time to time and managed to ask three question only to maintain an irrelevant flow of words the woman has been spouting.

"Oh dear, the time is sure running. I must admit I wasn't willing to come here but my husband insisted as he does business with Mr Reyes. Thus I have really enjoyed my time here. You know Miss Arya interacting with other nobles can sometimes be so difficult." She smiled awkwardly.

"Now you Miss Arya and Mr Reyes, are you engaged?" The curiosity behind her eyes was clearly visible. That was probably the main goal, this woman needed something to make her gossip more interesting. What's more her question was considered rude as it involved delicate matters.

"We aren't Mrs Netherfel." Arya smiled watching the shocked expression of Mrs Netherfel. Now she had it, something to talk about, the lecherous life of Mr Reyes and his young Omega. Many other rich Alphas had Omegas as side lovers, not many though decided to show around with them or introduce them to the society. Soon they will be declared a curiosity and invited around by sensationalist people.

The two women were going back only to notice the Alphas standing at the patio with cigars in their hands and laughing a bit. It was late afternoon and the tea time was over, they should take their leave.

"I see our ladies have returned, well Mr Reyes that was a really pleasant evening, we will be glad to return the invitation. I must admit Mr Reyes you are a true Alpha." Mr Netherfel smiled and looked again at Arya in a way that made her feel disgusted.

As the couple has been leaving accompanied by Arya and Mr Reyes they were invited to a dinner party which will be held in a week at the Netherfel's mansion. There were supposed to be about ten people.

"With pleasure." Mr Reyes responded and they finally parted.

Going back Mr Reyes looked at Arya who to be honest counted on some feedback from her Master.

"Did you enjoy the meeting with the Netherfels?"

"Yes Master, that was something new. Mrs Netherfel sure loves flowers and talking about them too."

Mr Reyes felt the hidden information behind her words and smiled.

"You have made an even bigger impression on her husband."

Arya was silent, not knowing how to respond to that information. There seemed to be something off about it.

"Go to your room Omega, take a bath and wait in a bathrobe, I will call for you." The cheerful mood was over. He was back to being a Master. Not good. Arya had a bad feeling.

"Yes Master."

She want back to her room, since her birthday he hasn't called for her, he probably gave her time to recover after their passionate first time. Now she wasn't a virgin and her Master had like a lot of things in that room. Taking a bath she was wondering what will happen. He won't punish her right? She hasn't done anything to be punished for.

She was anxious while sitting on the bed and waiting. That waiting was awful it made her think the weirdest thoughts. Soon she heard footsteps. Master was coming.
