*Omario POV*Rufus keeps my eyes open. Alpha C’s face is priceless when Dire’s razor sharp teeth sink into his neck. His lifeless body is thrown into the floor like the useless piece of garbage he was. Olivia’s wolf must have deemed the scene too much to witness because she is now in her human form. I don’t feel the least sympathetic as she holds her chest and screams in horror as the disgusting stolen bond fades. “His Highness is slipping away. I can’t hold him back anymore!” It is the first time I hear Rufus so distressed. I guess the prophet really did love me. Dire growls at Olivia, who shrinks and trembles. Shaking his head, he shifts, hurries towards me and kneels in front of me. “Leave his eyes alone,” Terrence commands. “He will surely die!” Rufus cries but Terrence laughs at him. “No, he won’t.” He sounds so certain but I am not so pessimistic. “Unless he is an idiot, then he will,” he adds. I guess the time away has not done much to change his cocky attitude. “Liste
*Omario POV*A day later, Luna Sarah bids us farewell to return to her pack. She and my mother have had very long conversations. Our warriors will accompany her all the way. With the sceptre on her hand and determination to make her pack better, I have no doubt that she will just be fine. The whole nation is fussing about our pup, I don’t know how many times I have seen his name on ships, billboards and television adverts. Having Terrence, Duncan and Loyd around has made my job so much easier. I get to spend a lot of time with my mate and pup, knowing that everything is taken care off. Abi is also thrilled to have mother back. The two of them spend hours giggling, it warms my heart to see them so happy. Two months later, mother and Terrence’s pup is born and my cocky friend is now worse and insists on being addressed as father Alpha. I have accepted it because in reality, he is the ultimate Alpha and I am thrilled that our people have accepted him just like we have. Abi, Mother an
*Abi POV*It’s seven o’clock in the evening when I dash out of the castle and run towards the wood as fast as my feet can carry me. Each week I am faster than the week before, but it’s still futile. They are faster with better vision at night than me. They also have much more endurance. There is a limit a human form can take, maybe one day when I get my wolf I will be as fast. They always give me a ten minutes head start but it’s really not much when being chased by wolves. I can hear them howl and growl when I pass the ten kilometres mark. Last week I was caught just after the eight kilometres, I am definitely faster. Ten more kilometres without collapsing, then I can escape this hell. This for me is practise to improve my speed and endurance but it is a game for Alpha Theo and his friends. They get to hunt me down every week and sharpen their skills before presenting me to the prophet who will read my deepest thoughts, no matter how intricate or embarrassing. I get lashes for every
*Abi POV*Susan holds my head and Chloe holds my legs and quietly take me out of Prophet Rufus’ guest room. I try not to wince as they bang me against the walls all the way to Omario’s chambers. Every servant here still secretly treat me like a princess and do their best to help me when no one is looking, except these two. They are the same age as me but they both have been to Blake’s bed. It took them weeks to heal from whatever Blake did to them. I and other servants did all their work until they were ready to come out. They have subsequently been through the rest of Alpha Theo’s friends. I understand their anger but it seems to be directed at me, not the Alpha and his despicable friends. It’s as if they resent me for not having been through the same experience. Omario’s claim has made things worse. Brenda must have noticed this too. It would explain why she’s been specifically choosing them to take me out every Friday. Two weeks ago they were stopped by Terrence from tossing me in
*Omario POV*It’s Friday night again. My father’s freak show is starting. Him and his disgusting okes are about to chase a helpless, wolves-less servant, who apparently, will be the end of him. I can’t freakin’ wait for that moment. It all sounds ridiculous, dad is literally indestructible while she is… just a girl. History has proven a lot of people wrong though. Little boys have destroyed giants and a tiny ant has killed a mighty elephant. I bet the prophecy will come to pass and the servant girl, Abigail of the Lilly town creek pack, will destroy the mighty Alpha Theo. I hear the howling and head to Rufus’ room. The idiots are even celebrating catching up to the girl. They think it’s hunting, like they used to when they were rogues. They don’t get that they are making her stronger and resilient each time. They don’t even see that she outsmarts them too. They really panic when she froths her mouth and shakes her body and think she actually has a convulsion. It’s the same when she h
*Omario POV*It takes a few seconds for me to regain my strength after that electric jolt. Abi’s face is still flushed with embarrassment but her eyes are a raging inferno. She clearly has no idea what she possesses and I plan to keep it that way. I lift her out of the bathtub and carry her to my bed. She is about the lightest woman I have carried to my bed.“The list you can do is feed her” Titan says, as if I am the one starving her. I don’t bother responding to him, my eyes are shamelessly glued to her nakedness again. I should get other maids to dry and dress her, but I can’t help myself. She looks away, clearly uncomfortable with this, maybe I do possess my dad’s disgusting traits after all. Madness is insisting on touching a woman who just sent a current through my body. Who is to say the next one won’t stop my heart permanently? Still, I can’t stop and Titan is behaving very strange. I pick up her clothes from the floor but they wont do. The hand-sewn poor quality material t
*Abi POV*I am initially disoriented when I wake up to find myself on a king size bed with silky sheets in a exquisite bedroom. I blink and rub my eyes a multiple times to make sure that I am not dreaming, then last night’s events come rushing back. I scan the room around for Omario but there’s no sign of him anywhere. I curse when I see the clock and jump out of bed. It is almost 8 o’clock, I overslept. My chores start at 5 o’clock sharp. Brenda is going to punish me severely for this. I rush to the bathroom but freeze halfway there. I am still wearing Omario’s shirt and nothing else. He put it on me but I can’t walk out of here with it. I am pretty sure that equates to stealing from royals and that’s a punishable offence. Several servants have had their arms cut off for something like this. Even though it was a misunderstanding in almost all the cases, no one was interested in the explanation. What do I do? I can’t find my clothes anywhere and I can’t really leave this place naked.
The clock continues to tick, I am expecting the blade to make contact with my skin and cut through my poor arm at any moment now. I can’t help but tremble and be engulfed in self pity. What did I ever do to deserve any of this? I was only six years old when Alpha Theo took over my pack. I have always been an obedient child and made a point to be kind to everyone because my parents would not tolerate anything less. If this is a punishment for a sin I committed, I have no idea what that was. No, this had nothing with me. Some greedy, evil and stupid human decided to have a nuclear weapon plant. I wish I can one day meet that person and ask him or her what the fuck for? I wonder if they are still alive and if they know the real consequences of their actions. There are times when I think that the prophecy is my blessing, not today. Had it not been for it, I would have suffered once, died and buried like every heir of the Lilly town wolf pack. Why didn’t the prophecy chose someone else,
