"Why?" I couldn't help but blurt out on instinct, his sudden dismissal of me hurting me more than I cared to admit. He had never been cold to me save for the one time in front of Alpha Adrian and that too had been an act. So this, him suddenly being so cold and rude stung like no other. I knew for a fact that he didn't like sharing things about himself. And I'd always tried not to push him for answers. Besides, he'd been answering me just fine up until a few minutes ago. I figured since he'd willingly divulged his past to me, we were somehow closer to each other now. That I had the right to ask questions and that he would answer me. Apparently, I'd been wrong. "Because I want you to. Because I'm not a saint like you," he said to me, his voice sharp. Not a saint like me? What was he going on about? "I'm not some saint, Evan. I'm just me. Melody," I told him, my words slow, careful. "That's just what the problem is, isn't it?" He replied, his tone sardonic. Turning around s

I pushed the door to Miss Lillian's room open once she had called for me to come in. "Miss Lillian, I have someone I want you to meet," I told her, gesturing to Alpha Evan who had entered the room behind me. Miss Lillian looked surprised that I'd brought him along but she quickly got over as she stood up from her bed and approached us. "And who might this be?" Miss Lillian asked, her tone light and teasing. "This is Alpha Evan and Alpha Evan, this is my nanny, Miss Lillian," I said, quickly introducing the two of them. Miss Lillian smiled, holding her hand out for a shake. Much to both our surprises, Alpha Evan took her hand in his before bringing it to his lips, placing a soft kiss on the back of it. For pretty much the first time in my life, I watched as Miss Lillian blushed a deep pink, her pale cheeks filling with colour. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Lillian," Alpha Evan said with a radiant smile, letting her hand go and looking like he meant every word. Miss Lill

"Have you seen Raymond?" I asked Jen, one of the kinder slaves who often helped me. "He might be somewhere in the kitchen. That's where I last saw him," she told me on her way to the Ball room, an assortment of beautifully selected flowers in her hand, blue and white, which was the theme for the night. "Thank you," I shouted at her over my shoulder as I ran towards the kitchen, looking for Raymond. After visiting Miss Lillian, I realised I didn't have much time to say my goodbyes to Raymond and I had to do it tonight itself for I didn't know how or when I'd be leaving tomorrow. I had just opened the door to the kitchen when someone coming from the inside slammed right into me. Strong arms held me, keeping me from falling as I lost my balance. "I'm so sorry, I was in a hurry," I heard a man's voice say and it took me only a moment to realise that it was Raymond. "Raymond!" I exclaimed once I'd righted myself and pulled away from his hold. "Mel! Thank Goddess you're here, I

"What happened? Are you okay?" I asked as soon as Alpha Evan shut the door to his room behind us. "Fine," he said gruffly, his back to me as he pulled at his tie, loosening it. My frown only deepened as I walked towards him. I knew he was troubled and it was troubling me as well. He had treated me so nicely so far and I didn't like seeing him like this at all. Slowly, I approached him from behind, reaching up and placing a tentative hand on his shoulder. "Evan?" I called out, my voice soft as I urged him to turn around. I felt his shoulders slump a little under my touch as he let out a sigh. Ever so slowly, he turned around, looking straight into my eyes, his expression unreadable. "What happened out there?" I repeated, my voice still soft as I coaxed him to answer. He stared straight into my eyes, seemingly conflicted as he looked down at me. Instead of answering me, he lifted a hand, rubbing the back of it against my cheek. I felt the sparks I usually did at his touch, lea

The Imperial Ball was finally over and the guests had been leaving since morning. All the servants had been tasked with either cleaning up the guest rooms- changing the bedsheets, cleaning the bathrooms and such, or helping the guests load their luggages into their cars. I had been tasked with cleaning the bathrooms. Yeah, it's as fun as it sounds, which is not at all. I had been at it for at least four hours when I realised it was finally time for lunch. With an excited grin, I made my way towards the kitchen, ready to take food to Alpha Evan's room. I was hoping that he would finally tell me what the plan of action was, let me in how he was going to take me with him. I mean, it was me he was taking with him, so I obviously had to be let in on the plan for it to work successfully, right? And if he was going to do it today like he had told me he would, then now was as good a time as any to tell me everything. "What are you doing here?" Michel asked as soon as I stepped foot int

I watched silently, tears streaming down my face as the small room I had called home burnt to ashes right in front of me. But it wasn't the site of the burning room which was making me cry, no. It was the sight of Miss Lillian and Raymond crying like anything right in front of it that was making my heart feel like it was being ripped out of my chest slowly and painfully. They thought that I had died. They couldn't see me because of a magical spell Alpha Evan had put on me but I could see and hear everything just fine. It was late at night when I finally made it to my room, exhausted to the bone after the day's work when I noticed Alpha Evan sitting on my bed as if he owned the place. For a moment, I'd thought that my tired mind was playing tricks on me. Because he had already left, hadn't he? How could he be there? But even after I blinked several times and rubbed at my eyes to clear them, he was still there, looking amused as ever as he stared at me. "What the hell?" I'd fin

"This is it," Alpha Evan said, opening the wooden doors and letting me in. "This is your house?" I asked, slowly walking in. After walking away from the painful scene of Miss Lillian and Raymond sobbing as the small room I'd called home burnt to shambles, Alpha Evan had shifted into his wolf in the woods. I had sat on his back much like I'd done a few days ago and then he had run all the way from our pack to his, stopping hours later at this house which seemed to be situated on a hilltop, over looking the town underneath. "It is," Alpha Evan said, walking in and closing the door behind us. I took in our surroundings. On the outside, it had looked like a quaint, cozy little place with a small garden, a picket fence and cobblestone pathway. The inside was much the same. The whole place held an antique look with an open plan living room and it's cozy looking fireplace placed in front of an equally cozy looking sofa set, complete with a plush carpet. Off to the side was a typical k

"I'd have to experience it first to know if I can put it up there with other good things on the list," I blurted out without putting much thought into it. It was when Alpha Evan's eyes widened almost comically that I realised what I had just spoken and I nearly face palmed myself. My cheeks heated up anew, probably turning an even brighter shade of red than before. Goddess, what was wrong with me? How could I say something like that? That too in front of Alpha Evan? I was so embarassed I couldn't even look at him straight. "Melody?" Came his oh so delectable voice. Reluctantly, I looked at him, not wanting to see his pitiful expression. What twenty six year old had never had sex in their life? I opened my mouth, ready to defend myself but one look at his face and I promptly shut my trap. The expression he was giving me right then could only be described as one thing- desire, that too in it's rawest, most unadulterated form. I'd seen men look at other women like that, like they
