#2 Chapter 4
Chapter 4.
The kitchen’s door opened, revealing an angry Carl and some guards beside him. “What is wrong Madam Sandra? I have been in the dinning in my chamber for minutes but I saw no green light of you, I have to come here since I’m dying of hunger. What’s wrong?”
Madam Sandra, the head maid gulped, “My alpha, I don’t understand a thing, I placed your food on the table but it got missing, I don’t know how but we can’t find it anywhere around.”
“Then you should have made another one, I’m hungry.” Carl said with a frown, not liking the way they were taking him for granted.
“That’s the problem my prince, I put the food in your favorite plate and it got missing with the plate.”
Carl frown deepened, “I don’t understand you but make me another or I eat your flesh, you are having just five minutes Madam Sandra.” He stomped out of the kitchen.
Madam Sandra touched her head, releasing an heavy breath, “Thank God my head is still there.” She then glanced around, “What are you all staring at? Get to work, and prepare the alpha’s meal!” She yelled at the other maids.
They all got to work while Luna just stared at them, doing nothing because she didn’t know what to do. “And what are you standing there for, doing nothing?” A maid asked her, noticing she was idle.
“Hmm nothing.” She quickly picked up the napkin, dusting the shelf and cabinet.
The alpha’s food was done in no time and was dished out, Madam Sandra carried it to his chamber where he was waiting impatiently. “You are five minutes late but I will pretend I don’t notice.” He dogged inside the food eating, “What do you said happened to the first food?” He asked Madam Sandra, not raising his head up from his food.
“I don’t know how it happened, it got disappeared from the table.” Madam Sandra replied with a slight bow.
He stopped eating and dropped his spoon to talk, “Someone must have stolen it. I checked the CCTV footage but nothing seems unusual. Anyways, forget about that and prepare my party very well, I want no mistake, neither will I want any of the food to disappear on the day.” He picked up his spoon again and continued eating.
“Sure my alpha, there will be no mistake.” Madam Sandra vowed.
“You may leave.” He waved his hand rudely to her.
“Sure my alpha.” She left the young alpha’s chamber to the kitchen.
“Madam, is the alpha still angry?” A maid asked the chief maid as soon as she entered.
“Of course he is.” The chief maid said sweetly before shouting, “You are expecting him to take out his anger on me right? Well, unlucky you, because I survived and he is not more angry.” She was foaming in anger. “There should be no mistake in the food, cakes and refreshments, drinks or anything relating to the party, I gave the alpha my words and I still cherish my head.” She went out of the kitchen, feeling like a fool for the food to have got missing through her.
The other maids laughed as they watched her leave, “I don’t pity her, I wish the alpha gave her a tragic punishment. She could have wish for something more terrifying if it is any of us.” A maid said, not in any way sorry for the chief maid.
“And she could have giving us a million and one reasons why we shouldn’t be careless with things especially things relating with the alpha-to-be.” Another maid agreed with the first and they all nodded their heads in agreement.
Luna was just separately doing her work, she decided to mind her business, neither did she care about what they were all talking about, she knew that they all could have been happy or more delighted if they were to find out that she was the person behind the missing food, all thanks to her cat but she was eager to know what the alpha to be said to Madam Sandra, though she kept her cool, she knew she shouldn’t be obviously eager or she gets suspected.
Rebecca entered the kitchen later, “Hey, have you eaten?” She asked Luna, glancing at the other maids.
Luna stared at her for sometimes before gently shaking her head, indicating, “No.”
“I dropped a food in your room, check it out and eat before you come back here and continue your work.”
Luna stared at Rebecca, “Why is she behaving different, has she hear about the missing food? Is she suspicious of me?” She wondered but asked, “Are you okay mother?”
“Your mother will not be okay, neither will she have a rest of mind.” Rebecca cursed. She feels disgusted every time Luna calls her mother.
“I’m sorry, I will just go.” Luna left feeling hurt. “I know my mother is not okay anywhere she is, she will wish to come back here to be my pillar but she’s gone forever.”
“Hi there.” Rebecca called unto one of the maids, wanting to ask her about some information relating to the missing food.
“How can I help you madam?”
“I heard about the missing food of the alpha to be, isn’t it crazy that a food is missing in the park for the first time and its not any other person’s food but the alpha’s.” Rebecca told the maids how she knew about it, she had heard from Amanda, who heard it when Carl was discussing with Madam Sandra and everyone in the park already know about it all thanks to her, who was spreading out the news.
“Its crazy and astonishing but I think the alpha is not ready to punish anyone for it since the mistake came from Madam Sandra.” A maid answered nonchalantly.
“I hate that woman so much, I wish she gets punished.” Rebecca said in deep hatred.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
The door opened at that time revealing Madam Sandra, “And shame to my enemies, the alpha to be overlooked my mistake.” She said as she entered, she had been hearing what Rebecca was saying from outside because of her ability of picking up of words from a far distance as she was a wolf.
“In this palace Rebecca, its either you die before me or you leave here before me. One will happen out of those two. Now, leave and allow us to concentrate or I will tag you as threat in the sight of the alpha himself!”
“Its not over Sandra, you won again.” Rebecca left the room angrily, cursing Madam Sandra under her breath.
“And what are you all discussing with her?” The chief maid asked the other maids, folding her hands together.
“We were not answering her, she was only one doing the talking.” They defended themselves.
“Oh yeah! Where is the unfortunate omega by the way?” The chief maid asked, noticing Luna’s absence.
“She went to eat, probably some leftovers.” They mocked.
“The leftovers are meant for her and the animals, so its nothing new. Get back to work.”
