Amaris Laurier Pov: -

As I bustled around the kitchen, searching for the necessary ingredients for the tea as well as dinner, I couldn't help but feel a presence behind me. I turned around to see Alpha Samuel following me like a lost puppy, his face a mixture of annoyance and sadness. I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

" Amaris, can you please talk to me? " He pleaded; his voice laced with frustration.

I sighed and turned back to my task, determined to ignore him. He had supported Meera, that human who was obsessed with him, in yesterday's fight.

But Alpha Samuel wasn't about to give up that easily. He continued to follow me around the kitchen, the last piece of my dress clutched in his hand as he sulked. I could see the Omegas and maids silently giggling as they went about their work, cleaning the floor or coming into the kitchen to do their tasks. But one glare from Alpha Samuel made them bolt away, clearly intimidated by his alpha presence.

As I finished brewing the tea and began preparing the ingredients for dinner, I could feel Alpha Samuel's frustration mounting. He seemed to be on the verge of explosion, and I couldn't help but feel a little bit guilty. I knew I was being stubborn and stubborn, but I couldn't just forget about his betrayal so easily.

I took the vegetables and started to wash it. But finally, Alpha Samuel had had enough. With a growl, he pinned me against the counter, his eyes blazing with anger.

" Amaris, talk to me! " He demanded while I death glared at him.

" You idiot! " I yelled at him before hitting him on his arm while he looked at me sheepishly rubbing his neck, while I bent down and took out the vegetables as I cursed at him under my breathe.

" Samue--- Sorry, sorry continue your work! " I heard Spade voice; I stood up as soon as I realized our position which we are in.

" Spade come back, nothing is happening here! " I yelled out while he ran away as fast as the jet. As I couldn't find him anymore, I glared hard at Samuel who was inspecting the vegetables, his eyes roamed throughout counter before his eyes met mine and he flinched.

" Oh Amaris, you scared the crap out of me! " He exclaimed, placing a hand on his heart.

" This is all because of you! " I said as I threw the tomato at him which was in my hand as he caught it because of his quick reflex.

" What did I do now? " He asked me with a pout on his face.

I couldn't believe it. Alpha Samuel, the most serious, ruthless, and savage man I knew, was pouting at me. It was a sight I never thought I would see, and yet here he was, his bottom lip jutting out and his eyebrows furrowed in a way that was both adorable and hilarious. I tried to hide my smile as I turned towards the stove, pretending to be busy with the cups. I knew I shouldn't be amused by this, but I couldn't help it. It was just so unexpected and seeing him like this made my heart flutter in a way that was both new and exciting.

" Come on, baby, talk with me, " he said, his voice laced with frustration.

I sighed and turned to face him, my smile fading as I saw the seriousness in his eyes. " Then tell me the real reason for asking me to fight with Meera yesterday. "

The ghost Pov: -

Oh man, I was really freaking out yesterday when I saw that twisted doppelganger of myself. I mean, seriously, who wants to see a twisted version of themselves? Not me, that's for sure. I was stuck there, pondering on my thoughts and trying to figure out if it was real or just some kind of hallucination. But no matter how many times I tried to see that person again, all I saw was myself.

It was like some kind of weird, twisted dream. And then I realized that I was a ghost. That's when I started to laugh. I mean, seriously, who freaks out when they see a twisted doppelganger of themselves when they're already a ghost? It's not like it's even real or anything. It's just some kind of weird, twisted dream. So, I just laughed it off and went on with my day. It was kind of amusing, in a weird way.

Well, let me tell you, I was having quite the emotional breakdown yesterday. It was intense, to say the least. And by the time it was all over, I was absolutely exhausted. I just wanted to crawl into a cozy little bed and sleep for a million years. But unfortunately, I'm a ghost, so cozy little beds are kind of out of the question for me. So, instead, I just floated around aimlessly until I was too tired to keep my ghostly form intact.

And that's when things got really interesting. You see, as I was floating and floating, I must have drifted into some poor unsuspecting person's bedroom. And when I woke up, there she was – my twisted doppelganger – just inches away from me.

Talk about a creepy wake-up call! I mean, seriously, who wants to see a twisted version of themselves first thing in the morning? Not me, that's for sure. But instead of freaking out (again), I decided to embrace the absurdity of the situation and just laugh it off. I mean, what else could I do? I'm a ghost, after all. It's not like I can just run away or hide.

So, I floated over to my doppelganger and gave her a little ghostly hug. " Hey there, twisted version of myself, " I said with a grin. " It's nice to meet you. Sort of. Kind of. Not really. "

And then I floated back out of the room, still giggling to myself about the absurdity of it all. It was definitely a memorable experience, to say the least.

But hey, at least it gave me something to laugh about. And let's face it, sometimes laughter is the best medicine – even for ghosts.
