Vanessa

I was going to be in trouble. Serious Alpha-grade trouble.

And Goddess, it was going to be so worth it.

From the second I walked away from Alec in the garden, I knew I’d poked the bear. Calling Zachary my boyfriend was the verbal equivalent of slapping him across the face. But the way Alec had stiffened with barely restrained rage had been delicious.

I could still picture the look in his eyes. He hated that I’d dared to entertain someone else, even if it was just a joke. He hated that I had that kind of power over him, even if I wasn’t supposed to. And honestly? That kind of power was intoxicating.

He was always playing control games with me, pushing me, pulling me, making me feel like I belonged to him while he still danced around Maya. So I gave him a taste of his own medicine.

Still, I wasn’t blind. Alec wasn’t the kind of man who took things lightly. He wasn’t going to let this slide. I’d feel the heat soon. He'd make sure I paid for it. And weirdly, I was kind of looking

    AlecMaya was dramatic. She was on the floor with her shirt halfway off, back arched, moaning like a performer on stage. But the real show was watching the discomfort on Vanessa's face, and the stiff way she stood by the door. It was comical.I could barely keep a straight face. She didn’t say a word, but she didn’t have to. Her entire body was recoiling. She didn’t want to see any part of this, and honestly, I didn’t blame her.I watched her leave, quietly. I should have followed her. But Maya rolled on her side like she was paralyzed and needy.She grabbed my hand and pressed it to her lower back. “Please,” she whispered. “Just... for a minute.”I crouched beside the bed and started rubbing gently, just enough to make her shut up. My fingers moved automatically, not out of desire, but obligation.Maya sighed like she’d found heaven. “That’s it... right there...”She climbed onto the bed slowly. “Mmm,” she breathed, curling into the pillow, “don’t stop.”Within minutes, she was out

    VanessaAfter attending to Maya,I stepped out of her room, closing the door quietly behind me. I was grateful that I hadn’t let that dark voice inside me win.I barely made it to the stairs when I saw Nina.She was standing still, leaning on the banister. Her arms were crossed tight over her chest, and when she turned, her eyes were swollen and red-rimmed.I slowed my steps. “Nina? Have you been crying?”She turned her face away and gave a small laugh. “It’s probably that damn shampoo,” she mumbled. “It stings.”I arched my brow. “Try again.”She shook her head, and then the tears came. Silent at first. Then, suddenly, she broke. Her shoulders trembled and her hands went to her face.I didn’t hesitate. I reached for her wrist and guided her down the hallway, straight into her quarters. She followed me like she had nothing left.When we entered, she sat on the edge of her bed.“I’m tired,” she whispered. “Tired of being silent. Of swallowing every insult. Of smiling while Maya and Isab

    VanessaMorning crawled in slowly, dragging the weight of my thoughts behind it. I didn’t want to think about anything. I wanted my mind free from worries. So I resumed my morning duty, dusting and folding.Somewhere below, a grunt echoed through the air. Then a laugh followed by the clatter of bodies hitting sand. The sounds came in intervals. My curiosity edged forward.I set the cloth aside and walked to the nearest window. The courtyard was alive. Three males sparred shirtless under the rising sun, blades in hand and adrenaline thick in the air. But only one of them made my breath catch like a snare.Alec.His back was turned at first. Muscles stretched across his shoulders in perfect lines, moving with precision. Each step was calculated and graceful. His laugh rang out as he ducked under Lucas’s blade and struck clean across his side.He turned, and I swallowed.Tribal markings sprawled across his torso, half-faded in places, carved into flesh. My heart betrayed me with a thud.

    Alec Vanessa's scent curled into my lungs like a slow-acting drug. That damned scent. I wanted to tear my skin off just to stop feeling it.Everything in me burned. My wolf was pressing harder than ever, raging and clawing beneath the surface. One second more and he’d take over.Vanessa had no idea what I was holding back. If she did, she would’ve run.Instead, she held her ground like she wanted to die pretty.I narrowed my gaze. “You will show me respect.”Nothing.“I’m not one of those foolish nobles who chase skirts in the shadows. I am Alpha. My word and will is law.”Still nothing. Not even a flicker of fear.“Do you even know who you’re speaking to?”“Loud and clear,” she said, unbothered. “The almighty Alpha who follows his cock more than his crown.”I took a step forward. Her back touched the tree.“I should punish you for that.”Her mouth twitched, amused. “But you won’t.”I leaned in, enough to brush her cheek with the heat of my breath. “Keep talking like that and I’ll ma

    VanessaI didn’t go upstairs. Nina said I was assigned there, but nobody else had told me anything. The head maid hadn’t, and until someone made it official, I was going to mind my business.Besides, I wasn’t ready to be near him again.I needed somewhere quiet, somewhere people rarely went. So I slipped into the kennels.They were built near the east garden, tucked behind the laundry building. I didn’t know whose dogs they were, but they were so beautiful. Sleek coats, clearly imported breeds. They looked hungry, and I couldn't ignore them. One nuzzled my arm as I poured food into a bowl.“You’re so beautiful,” I whispered, rubbing the ears of a small brown pup.I moved slowly, cleaning out the cages, wiping down metal bars, changing water bowls. There were maybe twenty pups, and a few adult dogs. The sun was already high, but this was the first time all morning I felt something close to peace.Then I heard two boys arguing somewhere nearby.“I told you the third verse is about the b

    VanessaI sat in front of the broken mirror, brushing through my hair like it was a mission. Each stroke was precise. I wasn’t going to give Maya the satisfaction of finding fault again, not over something as ridiculous as hair.The stupid comments from yesterday still rang in my head. Smelling like a mutt? Filthy hair in her food? Tch. If she wanted to see how wild I could get, she should try touching me again.But I wasn’t going to let it get that far.I parted my hair down the center and began twisting the ends inward, tucking the length into itself, pinning and styling it low against my neck in a way that made it look shorter and almost forgettable. If I had a few flowers, I’d stick them in and call it a crown just to spite her.Cut it? Goddess forbid. I’d rather rip the sheets off her precious Luna bed.I stared at my reflection. The cracks in the mirror blurred the image, but I could still make out the final look. Clean. Simple. Not the wild beast look Maya accused me of. Let he

    AlecVanessa rushed off down the corridor. Her maddening scent still lingered. Lucas was pissed.“What the hell are you doing?” he barked, marching over.His glare was sharp, but I didn't care. “Relax. It’s my house.”“Your house?” Lucas laughed bitterly. “You were kissing her out there like no one could walk by and see. Do you know what would have happened if anyone else had seen you? Maya's room is down the fucking hallway.”“I couldn’t help it,” I said flatly. “If you’ve got a problem, go argue with the moon goddess.”I didn’t wait for his reply. I turned and started walking toward the wine bar. My body was hot, my wolf kept prowling beneath my skin like it hadn’t calmed since the last time she touched me.Lucas followed me, fuming. “Alec, this won’t end well. You know that, right? People loved your father. He was respected. And you're screwing the daughter of the man who killed him.”I stopped walking and glanced at him with a smirk. “My father wasn’t the saint everyone paints him

    AlecMaya's scream cracked through the hall like glass shattering.At first, I ignored it. Maya screamed often over dresses, food, and maids. I had learned not to respond. But then I heard something else.Begging.My chest tightened. I stood frozen, listening. A low whimper. Another hit. The sound of something being dragged.Vanessa.My wolf roared beneath my skin, pacing, agitated. I clenched my fists. My steps were fast, nearly thunderous, across the corridor. I reached the door, ready to kick it down, but I stopped.Breathe. Think.She’s still a servant.I couldn’t go storming in like she was mine.I opened the door.And there she was. On her knees. Hands raised in defense.Maya stood above her with a fistful of hair and
