Lena’s pov
“This is unfair” I proclaimed silently in my heart as Lady Claire’s whip landed on my back, I was still in shock as I tried to look for the incident that I really cause that warrant such beating on my back and yet I found none.
There was anger visible on her face as she looked like one who had lost her candy.
Remembering that she was my rival in the “Luna’s” position before Alpha Adrian changed his attitude towards and I sighed wondering if I was cursed, or there was something going on with me.
Alpha Adrian came in just in time to see bruises on my body, he silently gazed at me as his eyes stared at me for some minutes before he removed his eyes on me and looked at Lady Claire.
It’s not a rumor that’s it’s better for Alpha Adrian to shout at you than for him to silently gaze at you, his silence gaze is a warzone on its own.
I guess Lady Claire had this consciousness that was why the whip which was to be landed on my back for the……. Truth to be told I had lost count of how many times she had flogged me with the whip.
Alpha Adrian tactics has turned out to be the bloody tactic that’s is being feared by friends and foes alike, she tried not to show it but she was shivering within as the whip fell from her hand in shock.
His silent gaze spoke volumes as he went to the library which stood by the corner, he brought out a book and began to read it. Although I tried not to show it but I almost rolled my eyes as he’s repeating the same routine.
There was mixed expressions on her face as she left the palace, a cold voice stopped her ok her tracks
“Don’t you know how to pay respect?” The voice said
She bowed before Alpha Adrian and went on her way, her maids following her suit.
I wrapped my hands over my stomach and began to weep silently.
I cleaned my tears and went in with that day’s job, obviously I had been reduced to being a maid in the palace. The treatment in which is was getting was worse than the treatment that I received in my former pack.
I did not have anywhere to go to rather do I have anyone to turn to.
The two of us were left in the palace, I could not meet Alpha Adrian eyes, I shrunk back as I bowed my head towards him .
An uneasy washed over me, the thought of him killing or my unborn child made me scared of him, who knew that such a sweet soul could turn into a deadly monster.
There was a unusual silence as I began to feel the tension in the air. He stood up from where he was sitted, sweats began to pour out of my forehead as his whole body screamed danger.
He chuckled, his look was menacing as I looked like a small fry before the god of death.
“If the news I heard that you are a spy in the pack, I’ll let you experience a fate worse than death”. His cold voice wafted through my ears.
Different thoughts ran through my head that moment, “how am I a spy and I’m not aware of my mission??” This question rang in my heart.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
There were many unanswered question that requires answers, the answer was vague and I could not ask Alpha Adrian for the fear of sending me to my early grave, I do love my life.
Alpha Adrian looked at me disgustingly as he left where I was, leaving me in a confused and perplexed state.
I thought about the earlier words of Alpha Adrian and was plunged into confusion, I had no business with royalty so how the hell am I a spy??
I began to connect the dots as I knew for a surety because he guessed that I was a spy that was why he treated me as such. It was by this time that I knew about the severity of the next phase.
I needed enough strength and courage because the next phase would be so tough and challenging. I took a deep breath and sighed. Looking at the days ahead of me, I knew that it was going to be long days of trouble.
I did not know where he got such information, and I began to ponder on this matter
“how can I go to Alpha Adrian to tell him that I was not a spy” the question keeps ringing in my heart. We never had any serious conversation when we were quite close as I was too shy to discuss any of my personal matters to him.
I mean he’s the ruling Alpha of the pack, what does he need to know about a lowly girl like me??
“You’re thinking too much” Lyla said to me
I rolled my eyes as I chuckled on how she normally shows up at the important phase of my life.
“I’m a part of you, baby girl” she said
I could not be bothered by whatever she was doing as there was crucial matter I needed to do.
She kept mute like she knew that I do not want to be disturbed.
Oh…. Where do I stop
Well….. I had no regret whatsoever but I was conflicted, because there was no way that the misunderstanding concerning my personality and my mission would be averted.
I went into the maids quarters and I was being gazed at with different looks, I could not be bother ed by the look given to me because right from start I knew that I was not accepted in the pack because of my rank.
I was only accepted because I was the “Luna” then. The status of the “Luna” was revoked as I got to know the intent and the heart of the wolves. This was including the maids, I wondered how I got into this mess.
