“Why an intruder was allowed inside?”
Alpha roared, lashing out his anger.“Luna has permitted Charlotte to work here, Alpha.”Alpha’s eyes narrowed at the name of “Charlotte” like running through it in his memory. With a “Hunhh!” he turned back without even sparing a glance for that so called “intruder”.Charlotte laughed at herself, braiding her knee length hair to show that she was busy, unfazed by Alpha’s fury.Her shift went smoothly as Roslie was very kind to her. Despite of her zero knowledge of cooking, Roslie taught her basics and gave her simple tasks of washing and sweeping.Charlotte noticed that Luna ate dinner with pack members in the Pack house. Whereas Alpha didn’t leave his office even for meals.“How hard working he is!”After midnight, she was scrubbing the floor for the tough oil stains when she heard intense enraged growls. She bowed her head more, like this feeble trick would make her invisible. Roslie came to her quite distressed, her face like a broken fuse,“Our usual cleaner forgot to wash the curtains of Alpha’s room. Can you help me with ironing?”Charlotte got up immediately, washed her hands and accompanied her to the laundry room.“I was used to do all work alone. Perhaps I am getting older day by day.”Roslie chuckled while drying brown silk curtains, reminiscing her past years at the Pack house. She was an omega born to the Pack’s omega cook. She took her mother’s place after her death. Her own daughter was mated to a warrior, so their family services ended with her.She was a lady in late fifties. Obviously, it was the her age to rest. Charlotte took all of her work to herself, ironing those king size cloth piece in just half an hour. Well, that was almost a blessing for her plus size body. She worked faster and harder, having more stamina to endure thirst.Along with the human meals, she was able to survive with one ration for the whole day. And today, she was like a rocket flying high due to the rouge’s powerful essence. In the hope of a chance to sneak in Alpha’s room with the excuse of curtains, she sent Roslie back, assuring her that she would take care of it.With her heart thundering in her chest, Charlotte re-adjusted her shirt and her long snake like braid. Roslie told her that Alpha was not in his room, but still she knocked, laughing at her stupidity. She entered to be welcomed by the waves of his scent, calming her nerves at once. He was not in the room but his scent was fresh and strong enough to intoxicate Charlotte.With utmost care, she hooked the curtains, matching with the brown-red covers and a thin blanket. Whole room was painted white unlike she expected black or grey, most Alpha’s favorite color. She jumped down from the stool finishing her task when a sudden verbal onslaught startled her,“So, here is that ingrate little one, who didn’t even remember the promise of favor repayment. Hypocrite!”Charlotte gulped hard before turning to face him. She looked at him frozen, glued to her spot. What else she could do when Alpha was deliberately shirt-less to scare her. She, who had just seen men naked in films or social media, flushed red at this open display. She was noticing Alpha’s upper body’s was different from the pictures she had seen where men had skin to tanned body colors.Alpha’s shining white skin color was quite surprising, as well as alluring too. He wasn’t even waxed bare like the models, adorned with silver manly hair, according to her liking. Alpha was satisfied with her stunned reaction from her. He squinted his eyes, curling up his lips,“So that’s how you decided to repay me? Standing like a statue in response?”He gestured her to pour him a drink which broke Charlotte’s trance. She quickly poured a shot of 90ml brandy in a wine glass, thanking to her bar job which gave her basic info about liquor. Her finger got slightly touched with his while handing him the glass, a jolt of electricity passed through her cold body due to his scorching heat.“You were supposed to spend your life for my life debt, how it ended up in full week’s vanishing and then working as a servant?”Alpha proceeded his one sided conversation and looked at her seriously, expecting a response this time.“Luna has allotted me this duty when I told her about my story. I was sick before. As soon as I recovered, I came here.”That was a white lie. Charlotte prayed in her heart for Alpha to buy her poppycock.Alpha’s expressions seemed to be soften at the mention of her sickness.“I need a full time secretary to assist my work. You should fill that vacancy as you owe me your life. You will stay with me 24/7 , accepting my every command without any question. Are you ok with this?”Charlotte swiftly nodded with enthusiasm, considering it as a golden chance to stay close to him.“Your duty starts from now. Hop on the bed and lay under the blanket quietly.”Her jaw dropped at his absurd demand, her wide eyes annoyed Alpha. He pointed her again. Suddenly, the door knocked. Without much thinking, she hid under the cover as she could not afford her savior’s anger by denying his first order.Charlotte almost screamed when she felt a heat pad pressed on her body, an iron palm shutting her mouth. She squirmed under the weight, trying to break free, a familiar deep whisper smiled near her ear,“Don’t move…!”..Note: Word ration for a vampire meal is often used as a quantity of blood in ml. It’s a unit.500 ml= 1 rationFive years later.“Now my girl is looking like a real princess.”Alpha Eric fixed Anna’s white frock and wore a gold chain around her neck, his eyes were filled with fatherly love.“I am hungry.”Little Anna cried out for food; this last-minute dress change was limiting the time of her preparation.“Do you remember your dialogues? Tell me?”Eric took her to the dining hall, where Orion served breakfast quickly.“If I meet the Moon Goddess in my dream, I’ll ask her for food for everyone.”“That’s my princess! Go for the audition and give your best. Your teacher will love it.”He praised her innocent act and fed her cereal gleefully.“Eric!”“Here we go.”Their happy session was ended by a warning hiss, Charlotte stormed out of her room.“Amy dressed Anna as a flower with great effort, she even tailored her outfit overnight. Why did you ruin her hard work?”She placed her hand on her back, walking through the corridors was a strenuous task for her in the seventh month of pregnancy.“I s
As soon as Casper destroyed Ramla’s curing pad, Charlotte’s pain came back in full intensity. She yelped and scratched her nails at the cage. The smell of the burning flesh suddenly overpowered the cocktail of different scents.Finally Eric started to respond to her efforts, his low growls motivated her dying courage. On the other hand, Ramla was struggling to resist those fire arrows, the unending sea of fire was consuming her power rapidly.“What do you think, Ramla? Your measly tricks can defeat the entire coven? The sacrifice of the Ring Fire Coven’s witches wasn’t for nothing.My ancestors are still with me, guiding me on every step. You cannot fight with me alone.”A ring of golden fire surrounded Lisa’s body, she rolled her sleeves and flexed her mark.“I am your sworn enemy and your worst nightmare, Alpha Eric. You signed your death order the day when you burnt my Coven alive.King Casper was just a way to approach you. I used his resources, as it was impossible for to take re
As a puppet, Charlotte received that silver knife with a smile and broke the necklace around her neck obediently. She didn’t even spare a glance at Eric, aimed the weapon towards her neck and locked her gaze with Casper’s dubious one.“Anything for you, Casper.”With that, she slashed her neck, blood gushed out of her wound. An involuntary howl came out of Eric’s mouth. The grim darkness prevailed before his eyes; the weakness of their bond shattered his soul.When he removed Melinda’s mark from his neck, he didn’t feel anything. But now a simple slash on their mark hurt like hell. He couldn’t even scream out his agony. Overwhelmed by helplessness, this torment was beyond his endurance level.On the contrary, the smile on Charlotte’s face was pleasant like winter’s sun. She raised that blade again.“It’s enough, Star.”Casper hastily grasped the blade and threw it away.“The removal of this mark will kill you. You are my beloved. I am not a heartless to hurt you like that.”Satisfied
The rattling of chains and squeaking of the iron tires shattered the eerie silence in the room, maids left quickly as that black cloaked man raised his hand.“The devil!”After seeing his bloodshed in the concert, Charlotte never thought that she would see him like this, but the silver cage behind that tall man paralyzed her for a moment.“Eric!”Her gut-wrenching scream resonated in the whole surrounding. Charlotte shot up to rescue him, but those restraints kept her in place. Eric's Alpha wolf was caged in a silver cage, two sired vampires settled the cage in the chamber and closed the door while leaving.Eric raised his eyes and whimpered, the extent of injury inflicted on him rendered him motionless.“How did you break into the security of the Royal Castle? You...”Charlotte was short of words to speak her mind, her heart pounded against her rib cage like a desperate prisoner, her breath hitched in her throat. That cloaked man stood still for half a day, the silence in the room wa
“My mate has left me.”Holding his head in his hands, Julian was wailing before his house. When he came back home after midnight, only emptiness welcomed him, seeping through his veins.Hearing his cries, the entire colony was gathered around him, the absence of Alpha Eric worsened his condition.“I thought that she forgave me.”Jason and Mathew were the last ones to join the grieving crowd, Mathew sat beside him.“Did she pack all of her stuff and left? And didn’t you mark her? Don’t worry, we will sort this out.”But Julian’s heart rendering tears fueled the fire of loneliness in his heart, his helplessness watered everyone’s eyes.“Ramla wrote a note for you. Read it.”Jason looked for Ramla in the house and came out with a paper. He handed him her last letter, but Julian threw it away.“I have read it. This is a lie. She made an excuse to leave.”Jason glared at his tear-streaked face for a while and counted to ten before bursting out.“After reading her goodbye note, you are cryi
“You didn’t pack my boxers.”Charlotte was balling her fists in the living room, whereas Eric was searching the bag efficiently at last minutes.“I asked you that if you wanted your boxers, but you said no. Why would I pack them?”She replied to him patiently, giving that Madam Lily was witnessing the circus.“Why don’t you ask mom? She knows what do I need in my vanity bag.”“You are not a child, Eric.”Charlotte’s hand flew to her mouth, as she and Madam Lily spoke this sentence simultaneously.“You both are bullying me. Great!”Eric stomped out to get his things from the room, Madam Lily said in a solemn tone.“I was used to do his work, as he was busy with important stuff. I didn’t realize that I was spoiling his habits.Don’t worry. I am his mother. I will straighten him like a line.”They left after the fifteen minutes argument, Madam Lily prayed to the Moon Goddess.“Please bless my children. They are happy after a long time. Please be gentle with them.”As soon as Eric’s car l
