0013 Lucians POV Since Arias absence , things had not been going very well for me .
With Aria gone , Sheila had taken the initiative to try and fill Arias shoes in doing the housework .
Shed insisted , confidently , that she could do anything that a low born orphan like Aria could do and better .
In reality .
Sheila struggled .
Only this morning , while I was reading the morning newspaper , Sheila gently brought me a cup of hot coffee .
It was a kind gesture , perhaps , or would have been , if I was hot allergic to coffee beans .
Something that I was sure Id told Sheila many times .
Oh Im So sorry .
Sheila said .
She hadnt remembered .
Or she was actually not care about me .
Every morning , Aria would give me a cup of tea , heated to just the right temperature , exactly how I liked it .
Last night , I had been working late in my study when Sheila had come in wearing a sexy , semi see through nightgown .
Shed leaned over my desk in an attempt to tantalize me with her cleavage .
Even if I had been interested , which I wasnt , my work was important , and I couldnt nor wouldnt leave it unfinished to chase selfish , momentary pleasures .
Aria would know that .
She would never attempt to seduce me like this , especially when I was busy .
How dare you treat me like this ! Even comparing me to that lowly orphan , Aria ! When I had denied Sheilas advances , reminding her that I was married , she had run from the room crying .

Perhaps she had expected me to chase her and offer her comfort .
I did not , opting to finish my work instead .
My work , building our pack stronger is the most important .
Overall , Sheila was not considerate and was not good at managing the maids and the housework .
In fact , the maids had begun to express frustration with Sheila and the state of the house .
Rather than helping .
she was constantly getting underfoot .
Because of Sheila , the house had become a mess ! With a massive headache growing , I had sat Sheila down this afternoon and attempted to bring up these topics .
with her .
You shouldnt worry yourself so much with the housework ..
I had tried to say .
Sheila , aggrieved and apparently heartbroken- neither of which I particularly believed threw herself at me as if expecting to find comfort in my arms.
+25 BONUS Chapter 0013 Its only because the maids hate me so much , Lucian .
They are never satisfied with anything I do ! I think they might hate me .
According to Sheila , anyone who had even the slightest disagreement with her , hated her .
I suspected that was true only some of the time .
I pushed her away .
Leave the maids to their work .
Do not concern yourself with housework anymore .
With that , I walked away , ignoring her attempts at calling me back .
Id left the room abruptly and changed into my suit .
Later , after finding the tie where Aria had told me it was , I left the mansion to head to the Alpha Headquarters building , where I was needed for work .
I was loath to admit it to myself and accept that I had misjudged her , but I missed the home I had made with Aria .
Before this silly rebellion of hers , I had thought that with ber just staying at home , she had decided to take on a life of leisure .
I envisioned her lazing about all day , working hard only in a few brief instances throughout the day .
I hadnt considered that there was actually some talent and effort required in caring for the house , in making it a home .
Now that Aria was gone and Sheila was trying and failing to take her place , my former opinions were very c misguided .
Aria had the talent and skill and dedication to ensure I hadnt needed to worry about the home at all .
She accomplished it all on her own , without my having to even think about it .
