Accidentally mated to Vampire King novel Chapter 10

When the time hits 5 o'clock in the evening, school ends, and now I have one hour to reach the hotel to report for my job.

I wonder if I can keep this job now, I'm sure everyone knows whatever happened in the college by now.

What will they think about my work ethic now?

I tried so hard to secure this job. With my hard work and passion, I made an impression on my Manager. And now It's all gone, for a lie Tina and her friends waved for me.

Well, it's not entirely false. I lost my virginity to some asshole Tina has arranged for me whom I can't even identify, even if the man passes just by my side.

But I'm not being as shameless as s*ut and sleeping around in the town.

Why is she hell-bent on making me regret being born and living with them?

It was familiar for everyone to see the welled-up tears in my eyes, and I could always see the pettiness they felt towards me.

And it always hurts more when I see those looks people give me when they hear about my suffering and losing my family at such a young age.

I don't want their pity. I want people to see the potential and strong willpower in my life.

But everything will change today; even though I hate those pity looks people used to give me, it would be better than the disgusted looks they will give me from now on.

I cringe at the irony of my destiny. Now I'm thinking what I hated once is a lot better than what I'll get now.

I make my way towards the hotel but what is weird is I see nobody on my way to work.

The road is empty, and it's very unusual to see streets empty during this time. I always notice small children playing games on the road or in the playground and the elderly going for their evening walks.

But today, it's as if I'm walking in a deserted city, not a soul can be seen, and it is too silent for my liking.

And again, I feel as if someone is watching me and my every move.

It's getting too creepy, and fear starts to build up in my heart. My heartbeat rises, and I scan my surroundings for any signs of danger but nothing.

And it scares me even more, so I quicken my pace to cross this path. As soon as I reach the middle of the road, I sprint toward my destination.

When I reach the hotel, I see that nothing has changed and everybody is behaving normally.

I got no odd looks directed at me, which surprised me.

When I enter the staff room, it is empty. I'm a little early, and others haven't come yet.

Two more students from my college work here with me and maybe they are late.

Even though I never interacted with them, I think they are good people. They never took advantage of me or my situation to make me do their work.

They never talked behind my back with other workers, which is why I can work stably without any problem.

I kinda like this job. I just hope this is not my last day at work.
