Forcing Her to Bow a Hundred Times at the False Heiress's Grave

ผู้เขียน: Daphne
(Eliza's POV)

The cool night breeze carried the scent of earth and decay as William dragged me deeper into the Morgan family cemetery. Moonlight spilled across rows of headstones, casting long shadows that seemed to reach for us with ghostly fingers.

"Keep moving," William snarled, shoving me forward.

I stumbled but kept my balance, carefully maintaining the appearance of weakness while discreetly testing the ropes at my wrists. They were loosening—just a bit more time and I could free my hands completely.

The cemetery stretched before us, a silent witness to generations of Morgan pack history. Elaborate mausoleums and ornate headstones stood as testaments to wealth and power, even in death.

William's grip on my arm tightened painfully as we approached a fresh grave adorned with white flowers. The mound of earth was still bare in places, not yet fully covered by grass.

"Do you know where we are?" he demanded, forcing me to my knees before the grave.

The headstone was temporary b

    (Eliza's POV)At the critical moment, William sensed the danger. His eyes widened as he caught the flash of my blade.With reflexes I hadn't anticipated, he jerked his head backward and pushed my hand away. The sharp dagger missed his jugular but still left a deep gash across his neck.Blood immediately poured from the wound, staining his collar crimson. His howl of pain echoed through the cemetery.I seized the opportunity. Adrenaline surged through my body, temporarily masking the pain radiating from where the iron rod had struck my back. I scrambled to my feet, desperate to put distance between us.William clutched at his bleeding neck, fury and disbelief warring in his eyes. "You actually tried to kill me!" he sputtered, blood seeping through his fingers."Catch her!" he roared to his guards. "Hamstring her and bring her back to me!"The guards hesitated for only a moment before moving to follow his orders. Their earlier reluctance vanished at the sight of William's blood. P

    (Eliza's POV)Just as I was about to give up, the person on the boat suddenly spoke."Come up." Relief flooded through me as I quickly climbed aboard. The boat was small with a covered section that offered shelter from prying eyes.I collapsed into the space, grateful beyond words for this chance at survival. My sodden clothes clung to my skin, and my entire body shook from cold and exhaustion.Suddenly, the light of torches appeared along the shore. William's men were approaching the docks, systematically searching every vessel.I shrank back, pressing myself against the hull. Terror clutched at my throat as the footsteps drew nearer.Without warning, I felt the cool tip of a dagger tap beneath the stern, signaling me to hide. I quickly squeezed into a narrow compartment under the stern."Hey! You there!" A voice called out to the boat's owner. "Have you seen a young woman? Soaking wet, possibly injured?"I held my breath, my heart hammering so loudly I was certain they must

  • Fighter Luna's Shifted Fate   Infiltrating the Hideout Where the False Heiress Lurks

    (Eliza's POV)She merely smiled and pointed to the tray she'd brought, encouraging me to eat. When I repeated my question, she tapped her throat and shook her head.Realization dawned slowly. She couldn't speak—none of them could.I glanced around the room again, noticing a calendar on a nearby desk. Three days had passed since my escape from William. Three days in which I'd been completely vulnerable, at the mercy of whoever had rescued me.The mute servant's kind expression offered no threat, but caution had become second nature to me. Verbal questioning would clearly yield no results, so I began piecing together what I knew.I had fled William by jumping into Silverlake. A mysterious man had found me hiding on his boat. I'd revealed my identity as Eliza Morgan, daughter of the Morgan family. And now I was here, in this strange residence with its silent servants.This place—this "Hayes Compound" as I'd later learn—likely belonged to my rescuer. But who was he? And why had he he

    (Eliza's POV)"Please forgive me," I murmured, keeping my eyes down. "I was told there might be work here."The stern housekeeper studied my bruised face with disapproval."And who exactly told you that?" she demanded, crossing her arms.I touched my bruised cheek. "A woman at the market said the Hayes household sometimes needs extra help."The housekeeper's expression softened slightly. "Those bruises... your previous employer?"I nodded, letting tears gather. "He had a terrible temper. I ran away three nights ago."My performance worked. Her face shifted from suspicion to reluctant sympathy."What's your name, girl?" she asked, her tone less harsh."Rose," I answered promptly.The housekeeper studied me a moment longer. "I'm Harriet Stone, head of this household. We might need extra hands in the kitchen."Relief flooded through me. My ruse had worked!"However," she continued sharply, "if I discover you're lying about anything, you'll be thrown out immediately. Understood

    (Eliza's POV)I curtseyed low, keeping my eyes fixed on the polished floor. My heart pounded so hard beneath my ribs, I feared someone might hear it."You may rise," Harriet Stone said, her tone clipped with efficiency.As I straightened, I carefully maintained my submissive posture—shoulders slightly hunched, head tilted downward, hands clasped before me. The bruises on my face, though fading, provided the perfect disguise.Who would look twice at a beaten servant girl?The servants around me moved with practiced precision, arranging dishes and tidying spaces. No one paid me any particular attention.I wondered if the "Alpha" they spoke of was Alexander Hayes. I hadn't anticipated that my unassuming appearance and the bruises on my face would become such an advantage in infiltrating the residence.Harriet Stone studied me with narrowed eyes. "You'll do," she decided, nodding curtly. "Follow me and do exactly as I say. The Alpha expects perfection.""Yes, Nanny Stone," I murmur

  • Fighter Luna's Shifted Fate   Grandmother's Fury, Brother's Murderous Intent

    (Eliza's POV)I discovered that the small gap in the fence I had used to escape from the Morgan estate was now sealed. Standing there in the pouring rain, I felt a strange mix of frustration and amusement. Elder Morgan had likely ordered this repair after discovering my secret excursions into town.The rain intensified, soaking through my thin clothes and plastering my hair to my face. I needed to get back inside before I caught my death in this downpour.I studied the wall encircling the estate. It was high, but not impossible to climb. Water ran in rivulets down my face as I tested handholds in the wall. My fingers ached from the cold as I began to climb. The wet stone was treacherously slick.My foot slipped, and I barely caught myself. My heart hammered in my chest."What are you doing?" a woman's voice called out.I twisted around to see Donna Dennis standing below, her face a mixture of concern and confusion. She held an umbrella that did little to shield her from the d

    (Elder Morgan's POV)The moment they entered my chamber, I felt my blood begin to boil. William glanced at Eliza with cold indifference before looking away, as if she were nothing more than an insect beneath his notice. Victoria couldn't even meet my eyes, her gaze darting around the room like a cornered animal. And James—my own son—appeared utterly oblivious to the tension filling the air.I watched as James noticed Eliza sitting quietly beside me. His brow furrowed, disapproval etched across his features."I greet Mother," he said with a stiff bow. Then his eyes narrowed at Eliza. "Mother, by pampering Liza like this, you'll spoil her and make her lose all sense of propriety. When she marries Zachary Wilson from the Hawthorne pack, she'll disgrace us all..."The audacity! After everything they had done, he dared lecture me about propriety?I slammed my hand against the table with such force that the teacups rattled. James fell silent instantly, his mouth snapping shut mid-senten

    (James Morgan's POV)"I have always acted in the best interests of the pack," I began defensively, but Mother silenced me with a raised hand."Best interests?" she hissed, her eyes flashing with rage. "Was it in the pack's best interest to allow your wife and son to drain Eliza of her blood under the pretense of a cure?"My face burned with indignation. How dare she speak to me this way in front of my family!"What nonsense is this?" I demanded, looking between Mother and Victoria.Mother turned to Victoria, who had gone deathly pale. "Tell him, Victoria. Tell your husband about this fabricated eye ailment that required your daughter's blood."Victoria's lips trembled as she shot a desperate glance at William. My son stood rigid beside her, his face darkening."It wasn't like that," Victoria whispered, her voice barely audible."Then what was it like?" Mother's voice cracked like a whip. "Explain to us all how a mother could repeatedly allow her daughter to be cut and bled, kno

    (Katherine's POV)I watched Zachary storm away, his broad shoulders rigid with anger. The moment the door slammed behind him, I wiped away my tears with the back of my hand, my expression going blank.These tears had served their purpose. Now I needed to focus.The winter banquet at The Night Princess's Manor wasn't just about social prestige or petty revenge against Eliza. It was my only chance to see Alpha Alexander, to coordinate our next move.I paced the room, my mind racing. Without an invitation, I would be cut off from my most powerful ally. Everything we had planned would fall apart."That bitch," I muttered, clenching my fists until my nails bit into my palms. "She knows exactly what she's doing."I stopped before the mirror, studying my reflection. The face that looked back at me was beautiful but haunted, the eyes calculating despite the redness from my manufactured tears.Gritting my teeth, I made a silent vow. "Eliza Morgan, if you refuse to give me this opportunit

    (Elder Morgan's POV)Mistress Dennis bit her tongue, clearly struggling to maintain her composure after my direct insults. Her face had turned an interesting shade of red, a mixture of embarrassment and barely contained rage.But it was her sons who couldn't restrain themselves. The eldest—a burly man with his mother's features—stepped forward, his face contorted with indignation."Mother, it's only right for us to come back and serve you, but my mother—"I slammed my hand against the table, the sound echoing through Green Pine Sanctuary like a thunderclap. Everyone flinched, including Victoria and Katherine who stood at the back of the room."Who do you call mother?" I demanded, my voice cutting through the sudden silence. "Outrageous!"I turned my glare to Donna, who had gone pale beneath her rouge. "Mistress Dennis, is this how you raised your sons? To address me as if I were some common pack member?"Without waiting for her response, I snapped my fingers. "Nanny Edwards!"M

    (Zachary's POV)I watched as William's face contorted with rage. Eliza's words had struck him like a physical blow, leaving him trembling with fury.His knuckles turned white as he gripped the armrests of his wheelchair. For a moment, I thought he might actually launch himself at her, legless or not."You—" he began, his voice shaking with barely contained violence.Katherine quickly placed her hand over his, her touch gentle but firm. "William, please," she whispered, her eyes wide with what looked like genuine fear.I frowned, studying her reaction. Something wasn't right. Katherine had always been confident, even arrogant, in her position within the Morgan pack. This new timidity seemed out of character."Young Master Morgan, don't be like this," she continued softly. "Liza didn't actually say anything wrong. It's my own guilt toward her."William's jaw clenched, but he remained silent, allowing Katherine to continue."After all, I occupied her place all these years. Seeing

    (Eliza's POV)"Let's wait and see, brother." I stopped and turned, meeting William's threat with unflinching resolve.My amber eyes locked with his, cold as ice under the estate lights. The hatred in his gaze was palpable, but I refused to be intimidated. Not anymore.William's jaw clenched, his fingers digging into the armrests of his wheelchair. The silent challenge between us stretched, neither willing to back down.I had endured too much at his hands to show weakness now. Let him plot and scheme—I was no longer the helpless girl he once tormented.(Zachary's POV)I watched the silent confrontation from the doorway of the War Room, unable to look away. There was something compelling about Eliza Morgan's quiet defiance.She stood straight-backed and dignified, facing William without a trace of fear. This was not the timid, broken creature I'd expected after hearing the rumors of her wilderness upbringing.Despite my loyalty to Katherine, I couldn't help but admire Eliza's com

    (Eliza's POV)A wave of revulsion washed over me as I walked toward the Morgan Estate War Room. It felt as if I'd swallowed something foul, the bitter taste lingering on my tongue. I knew perfectly well that Zachary Wilson's heart belonged entirely to Katherine. The thought of my grandmother and my disappointing father continuing this foolish meddling made my stomach churn."Sparrow," I instructed coolly, "go to Wolfstar Hall for me. I need you to retrieve my embroidered handkerchief."My loyal maid nodded quickly. "Yes, Miss Eliza. I'll be quick."I paused outside the War Room door, steeling myself for whatever awaited me inside. Father's invitation had been unexpected, and I'd spent the morning preparing for the worst.When I finally entered, I found dinner already laid out—venison, roasted vegetables, and moonlight wine. The spread was impressive, but my appetite vanished instantly when I saw who else was present.Victoria was nowhere in sight. Instead, Zachary Wilson sat at

    (Eliza's POV)The Moonlit Barge Tavern bustled with activity as Nanny Winters settled our bill. I watched her count out the coins—nearly two hundred dollars for a single meal—and felt a strange pang in my chest. In my previous life, such an amount would have been unimaginable."Is something wrong, Miss Eliza?" Sparrow asked, noticing my expression.I shook my head. "It's nothing. Just thinking about the cost."Nanny Winters tucked her coin purse away. "It's a reasonable price for the quality, Miss Eliza. No need to worry.""Miss Eliza, this is nothing," Sparrow said enthusiastically. "For the sons and daughters of prominent pack families, a single meal costing $500, $1000, even $10,000 is normal."I raised my eyebrows. "That much for a single meal?"Sparrow nodded vigorously. "Oh yes! The wealthy packs spare no expense when it comes to dining."I glanced around the tavern, taking in the elegant decor, the attentive staff, the satisfied patrons. A business idea began to form in

    (Eliza's POV)I stared at the bracelet in disbelief, my fingers hovering over its surface. The last time I'd seen this bracelet, it had been broken during my desperate escape on Evergreen Mountain. Now it lay before me, whole again."You fixed it?" I repeated, unable to mask my surprise.Alpha Daniel's expression remained impassive as he watched me. "Not just fixed. Improved."He reached across the table and picked up the bracelet, holding it between his thumb and forefinger."The original thread inside was weak. I replaced it with tempered steel wire."I blinked, trying to process his words. Why would the fearsome Alpha Daniel, the territory's Chief Justice, bother with such a trivial task?"May I?" he asked, gesturing toward my wrist.I hesitated before extending my arm across the table. His fingers were surprisingly gentle as he slipped the bracelet onto my wrist, though I couldn't help but notice the contrast between his large hand and my slender wrist."Try to break it,"

    (Eliza's POV)The stranger's words hung in the air between us, his enigmatic smile doing nothing to ease my suspicion. My hand remained firmly on the hidden dagger in my sleeve as I studied him."Someone who shares my interest in justice?" I repeated skeptically. "And who might that be?"Before he could answer, Sparrow stepped between us, her small frame vibrating with protective fury."How dare you!" she shouted, throwing a wild punch that the man easily dodged. "Where did this madman come from, daring to block our Miss Eliza's way? Our Miss Eliza is not someone who can be seen by anyone who wants to!"I suppressed a smile at her fierce loyalty, though her outburst was drawing unwanted attention.Nanny Winters moved with surprising speed for her age, drawing a knife from the carriage and fixing the stranger with a deadly glare."Go away!" she commanded, her voice leaving no room for argument.The man seemed unperturbed by their hostility, taking only two steps back while maint

    (Katherine's POV)I stared at my reflection while my maid arranged my hair. Ruby Pearson's name still stung in my mind."Tell me more about her relationship with my brother," I said calmly.The maid's hands trembled. "I shouldn't speak of such things, Miss Katherine.""I insist." My eyes locked with hers in the mirror."They were very close. The Young Master relied on her during his recovery.""How close?" I gripped my dressing table's edge."She was often in his chambers late into the night. Sometimes servants whispered that he would call her by your name."The brush in my hand snapped. I looked at the broken pieces, feeling just as shattered inside."Is it okay to ask this? The older brother favors a maid who looks like his younger sister. Isn't this shameful?" I could see the thought in her eyes, poorly hidden beneath her respectful face."Leave me," I whispered.As soon as she left, my composure crumbled. William had replaced me with someone who looked like me. Was I so
