HER WOLF AND MATE

The maid heard Carly’s call and moved closer to the door, “What is the problem?”

“Open the door for me, please.” Carly whispered her answer.

“You aren't allowed outside until Lord Ralph arrives.” The answer came straight up.

A slow smirk plastered across Carly’s face. She had expected that answer so, she went with plan B.

“You see, the thing is that, I can’t find my gown and Lord Ralph will be here soon. Please help me.” Carly begged for assistance.

The maid thought the request to be absurd.

“I thought they dressed you up already?” the maid said.

“you got me. yes, they did but, I took off the gown and now, I need assistance putting it back on. Please, come and help. I will be punished severely if caught like this.” Carly lied.

“I don’t get why you took it off to begin with,” 

“It was so itchy.” Carly lied. She prayed in her mind the maid believes.

“Okay,” The maid finally had her hand on the door knob and Carly moved back. hiding behind the door and waiting patiently.

“Where are you?” The maid asked as she was completely inside the room.

Carly remained behind her. Shutting the door, Carly managed to put the maid unconscious, bashing her head with a lamp. 

“I'm sorry about this,” Carly muttered under her breath as she started to undress the maid and took her attire to deceive others.

She then dragged the maid to the bathroom, tying her against the bathtub as well as her mouth before locking her in there. 

Wearing the maid dress, Carly walks out of the room with her head bowed to the ground. 

No one was aware of what happened in the room because, they were all busy with the banquet. No one had the time to check up on an irrelevant thing; except Ralph, of course. 

Feeling excited for what the night awaited him, Ralph excused himself when Zoya came to inform him that Carly was ready for his services. 

“I will lead the way,” Tabitha said as Ralph got up. 

He chuckled, “Please do,” 

As Lord Ralph made his way out of the banquet hall, he hummed to himself as the images of Carly body against his coursed through his mind; stimulating his libido.

“I can't wait to have her in my arms,” He declared, coming to a stop in front of the door to the room the maids had prepared for him. 

Twisting and turning on the knob, he pushed the door opened eager to see Carly in the sexy red nightgown splayed on the bed waiting for him, but rather she wasn't there. 

“Are you playing hide and seek, my love? That’s too naughty but, I love it,” Ralph said while searching the room for Carly, as he seemed to be having fun with the chase. 

“I can do this all day,” he announced.

As he got to the bathroom and tried to push through the door, but it turned out to be locked. “Ah, I see. This is getting more interesting,” A slow naughty smile spread across his lips.

 “This is where you are, huh?” He asked and channeled as much energy as he could to his hands before punching the door open; smashing it to pieces. 

“I found yo...” his excitement turned to shock and then anger when he found someone else instead of Carly.

Pulling off the cloth from the maid’s mouth, he inquired. “Who are you and where is she?”

Shivering in fear, “I don't know. She knocked me out and...” 

Ralph stormed out of the room, burning with rage as he made his way back to the banquet, annoyed that Alpha Hulbert had played him. Meanwhile, as Carly had already gone as far as reaching the palace gate without getting noticed, just as she was about to walk through the gates, she was intercepted by the guard.

“Where are you going?”

Calming herself down, with labored breathing, she responded in a low tone. “I was sent out to get something,”

“Really?” The guard questioned her, looking doubtful. 

 “Just one second” The guard says, moving to answer his radio, "Yes?”

“We have a runaway maid on the loose,” We assume she would be making her way towards the palace gate. If you see her, make sure you detain her,”

Immediately she started running. Going anywhere her legs would take her. 

She finally stopped at a point, conflicted about which route to run through. Her head was aching so bad and she was feeling too hot and strange. Something felt different and just then a voice shouted. “Take your left!”

“Who is there?”

“It's I, Alexis, your wolf. We don't have much time, so hurry and take your left. The guards and other Alphas are closing in on us!” Her wolf warned in her head.

Fear gripped Carly as she took to her heels once more, running at her fullest speed towards the left path. But the left path had led to a dead end as in front of it was a locked gate and behind her was Alpha Hulbert with a guard. 

Panicking, Carly shouted at Alexis. “This is a dead end!”

“How dare you humiliate me like this? If you come here right this instant, I'm willing to overlook the chaos you'd just caused” Lord Ralph said before anyone would utter a word.

“Never!” Carly retorted. She found it hard to believe that those who framed and killed her father would suddenly show her mercy after the stunt she had just pulled. 

She was positive that they were going to torture her to death. 

    

Alpha Hulbert commanded, “Capture her!”

Carly’s world suddenly became quiet as Alexis, her wolf growled. “Mate!”

They all turned to see Supreme Alpha Derek. He had no emotion on his face. Something about him screamed danger and for that, Carly was scared and uncomfortable.

The Supreme Alpha, her mate?

Overlooking everyone, he walked up to Carly, “A maid on the run is my mate? This is so pathetic.” He scoffed and rolled his eyes. He was about passing them when he ordered, “Lock her up. I will deal with her later.”
