I raised my head up to look at the sun, knowing it was the last time I would see the light of the day. The sun has never been so beautiful and bright. Suddenly, the silhouette of a man loomed over me, blocking me from the view that I was enjoying.
The refreshing scent of lemons was wrapped around him and I, who didn't want to cry, felt tears prick at the back of my eyes. Though lemons were not the sweetest of all fruits, I have always loved it.
I smiled through my pain, and then I felt it, the hot slash of pain as the blade of the executioner hit my neck, separating my head from the rest of my body and then everything was gone. All I could see was darkness.
I gasped as I felt a cold liquid splash on her face and I did not need to be told twice that someone had poured a bucket of cold water on my face. It must be my stupid sister Gloria, but before I could open my eyes I felt a different memory's flooding my head making me groan in pain but my hands felt too heavy to lift, I wanted to grab my head.
Memories of me turning eighteen and meeting my wolf and my mate. My mate turned out to be Paul, who I have always had a crush on, but he rejected me and chose to be with Anna. How heartbroken I was and how I met and bumped into Anna unintentionally causing her to miscarry and how I was executed. I felt pains in my neck where the blade of the executioner had cut through, separating my head from the rest of my body
I was supposed to be dead, right? So, why was I alive? I was about to pinch myself to see if I could feel pain when the memories of a girl I had never met before my death began to flash through my head just as mine had. Why was I getting someone else's memory?
"Stand up, you stupid Omega maid."
Omega? Who were they calling an Omega? Surely, I wasn't the one, right? But why does it feel like I was the one the voice was referring to?
"She was hit on the head, and it's a miracle that she is still alive, but do you think that emptying litter and drums of water on her is going to arouse her?” An oddly familiar voice yelled, causing me to cringe and itch to cover my ears with my hands. Why were they so loud?.
"Well, I will make the river go dry if it means waking her up. Did you hear what the head housekeeper said? All maids should assemble outside” another feminine voice yelled, but this one was not in the least bit familiar.
" She's not alright and no one even tried to get her treated, it's not fair." This particular voice was smooth and low but still, I heard it loud and clear as the three girls continued to argue.
I seemed to be the one they were arguing about. I also wanted so much to get up, but my body felt too heavy. I forced my eyes open, blinking slowly as I took in the unfamiliar and dirty ceiling above me.
I flexed my fingers and then my palms before bringing it up to hold my aching heavy. A groan left my mouth as I struggled to sit up on whatever hard surface it was that I had been laid on.
The first girl who had chided them for pouring water on me seemed to notice that I was awake first because she stopped arguing and rushed to me
"Angela, oh bless the moon goddess. You are awake” she reached out to support me.
" Thank you" my voice came out croaked as my lips were dry and parched.
"How do you feel?” Worry was swirling in the pool of her honey colored eyes.
She was a girl from Angela's memory, and she was Angela's friend and the only person who had ever shown Angela love. Why was I here? And what did she just call me? Did she just call me Angela?
"Angela, can you hear me?" The girl who I now know her name to be Amber from Angela's memory looked scared when I did not reply.
"Why are you calling me Angela?" I could not understand what was going on.
First, I reincarnated after my execution, which was something impossible. After waking up, I still had my memory's intact, but I also got the memories of another girl. How real was everything that was going on right now?
"Oh dear, was the hit to your head so hard that you have lost your memory?" The girl who said she was going to make the river go dry just to wake me up was now peering down at me. Her eyes held derision and her voice, mockery.
"Stop that Piper” Amber snapped
"How many is this?” Amber raised three fingers in front of my face.
I gave her a look which I was sure was asking if she was stupid, “that's three”
"Oh, thank God, now can you remember your name?” Amber was looking at me, eyes filled with heartache.
Simple "Mary-lee”
"I said it? She has lost her memories". Me
Piper's voice was smug, " didn't you say that her name was Angela?” She was asking Amber.
" Your name is Angela not Mary or whatever you just said” Amber looked like she was about to cry
" Angela,” I murmured, tasting the name in my mouth. I like the name but still, it wasn't mine.
"Yes, Angela" Amber was nodding her head like a rattle doll.
I gasped as I finally realized what was going on. I looked around the unfamiliar room until I saw what I was searching for. A mirror.
I willed my body to move, and I scrambled up from what I had now known was a bed and rushed to the mirror. My legs gave way under me but Amber, bless her heart, was quick to catch me before I could hit the ground.
"What are you doing, Angela?” Amber yelled at me and I knew she was scared.
" I told you, she has gone mad”
I ignored them and walked slowly to the mirror with Amber's support. My eyes widened in surprise at the face that stared back at me.
Ethereal beauty, that was the only word to qualify the beautiful yet dirt smeared face that was staring back at me. I had thought that Paul's sister, Miranda, was the most beautiful woman, but now I know that I was mistaken. This was an otherworldly beauty. A face that should only belong to a celestial being.
The face was refined and gently sculpted, narrow forehead, high rounded eyebrows with forest green eyes. Long pointed nose and narrow jaws with a small tapering chin. With small pale pink lips.
I raised my heavy hands to touch the face. I was in Angela's body. I reincarnated in the body of another woman. How did this even happen?
"Angela, what are you doing?” Amber shook me.
"Admiring her hideous and wretched face” Piper sneered, her face twisted in an ugly frown
" I am fine” I croaked out as I finally understood what was happening
" You don't look fine” the third girl who had not said a word since I woke up finally spoke out
"What year are we in?” I asked Amber, staring at her through the mirror.
She frowned but opened her mouth to answer my question, “the seven hundreds”
I squeezed the dirty dress on Angela's body, now my body, with my hand. It was the same period that I was born. From Angela's memory I could deduce the pack she was born in, and I remembered that I had heard about it before. It was just like my pack, evil and filled with wickedness.
From Angela's memory I could see how she suffered especially in the hands of the evil princess Marie that she was serving and how she died from trying to use her fragile and weak body to block a heavy blow from landing upon the princess
The both of us have been wronged in one way or the other by our pack members without even doing anything wrong. We both deserve a second chance at life, but I was the only one who was given the chance. I would take revenge, one way or the other, on the people that have wronged us.
I snapped out of my thoughts when the door of the room was thrown open with a heavy force. All four of us turned to the door.
A girl in a white gown like Amber and Piper, including the third girl whose name I did not yet know, was standing at the door. “The housekeeper is waiting to address all the maids. You will be punished if she gets there before you” the girl rushed out after saying her piece.
Piper and the other girl rushed out, and I knew immediately that the housekeeper must be strict
"We need to go now Angela, we can't delay anymore, if not, we will be punished. You are still weak, you won't be able to take any punishment” Amber eyes held anxiousness.
" Alright let's go”
I walked out with her support and my plan for revenge brewing in my mind. I was now very beautiful though weak, I'll do anything and everything to make them pay for everything they have done to me.
Paul, Anna, Greater moon pack, wait for me.
I clutched at Amber's arm and blinked slowly when we got to the place we were to be addressed by the head housekeeper. Everyone was already there, and they began to talk in hush whispers when I appeared alongside Amber. And I did not need to be told that I was the topic of discussion. Before my execution and death, I was the daughter of a Beta and was training to join the royal army in my pack. I was nothing but a mere slave now all thanks to Paul and Anna for ruining my life. I looked up at the sun, it was shining brightly above me. The sun I thought I would never see again after my head was cut from my throat, after I sank into the bottomless pit of darkness called death. My attention was drawn back when everywhere suddenly went silent, and I knew for sure that the head housekeeper was here. My eyes widened slightly at the giant of a woman. She was at least six feet tall with a voluptuous body and brawny arms which I could see peeking out of her uniform gown. She w
“Greetings…”, I paused my words, not knowing how to address her.“Greetings, Queen Luna”. Amber said beside me as we both courtesy. She was really Luna, I thought. She did not reply to our greetings so we remained in our position, with our heads bent down. I could hear the soft patters of her footsteps on the floor as she moved towards us. I stiffened as her feet appeared in my line of vision. She was now standing in front of me. "Up". Just one word and me and Amber stood straight. My eyes met with hers and I quickly looked away from her forest green eyes, which looked like they could see into my soul. I flinched when she hooked her finger on my chin and turned my face back to her. She was looking at me in fascination, her eyes roving over my new face. "I've never seen anyone this beautiful”. She said, and using the hand on my chin, she turns my face from left to right. Me too, I wanted to tell her but I kept quiet and stood still, trying hard not to flinch under her scrutiny
“My brother has got to be the most annoying human ever. How could he just sit there and allow me to address those old men who have nothing better to do than try to march their daughter with him because they want more power?”. I looked at Azalea as I scrubbed her back. She was in the bathtub. After returning from her meeting, she sent a guard to call for me. I helped her pull off her gown, and now she was taking her bath. She has been prattling on and on, and by now I knew everything that happened in the meeting. Alpha king Lothar was her cousin brother, and she was not the right Luna. She was just filling in for whosoever it was until Alpha Lothar finds his mate. The old men who made up the council of elders wanted him to pick a chosen mate for himself. They think that he would become weak if he does not find a mate, and they also wanted him to have an heir. " I also don't want to be Luna, can't they see that and stop bothering me?”. She slapped the foamy water and it splashed out,
I had a hard time getting up from my bed the next morning. Azalea was much worse than my chief commander in my past life. She did not even stop to think that I was an Omega, or it was my first time, she kept barking orders at me to get up anytime I fell down from being knocked down by her. "Are you okay, Angela? You don't look good this morning”. Amber told me, her eyes racking over me from where she was sitting on her bed. "It's okay. I'm tired from my training”. I told her as I forced my weak body off the bed and prepared to take my bath. "What training is that?”. She looked confused. " Azalea is training me on how to defend myself”. I explained as I walked towards the tiny bathroom we all shared. "Azalea? She let you call her by her name?”. Amber spluttered as she jumped off from her bed to follow me. No doubt wanting to hear about everything. From Angela's memory, Amber likes gossip. "Yeah". I admitted. I had already made the mistake of calling the queen Luna by her name in
I watched as Alpha Lothar stood up in all his majestic glory and began to walk slowly to where I was. My heart was beating fast, threatening to fly out of my chest. The whole place had gone silent and everyone was waiting for his reaction and verdict. No one has realized that we were mates. I should be thankful for that. I would silently be rejected again without anyone knowing about it. My breath caught in my throat and I could not breathe when he came to a stop in front of me. It was disrespectful of me to look him in the eyes. I was supposed to bow my head or something, but I couldn't look away. I looked up at the Alpha Lothar who was towering over me at six feet, five inches. He was more handsome up close. More handsome than when I had seen him from Azalea's window riding on a horseback or when he was still seated on his throne. He was the most handsome man I have ever laid eyes on. His green eyes held mine and I could not look away. My wolf was clamoring behind my mind where I
The first place my hand went to when I woke up was my neck. I had just woken up from a bad dream where I was executed. This time I did not see Paul and Anna. Instead, I saw that mysterious man who blew me a kiss while riding on a horseback. He was with another woman, and he was giving me a devilish smile as my head was cut off. I was gasping, there were tears in my eyes as I thanked the moon goddess that it had all been a dream. I was still alive and breathing. My neck was still attached to my head. My hands dropped from my neck to the bed, and I was shocked at how soft it was under my hand. The bed I've gotten familiar with after my reincarnation was a hard one. My eyes went to the bed and then the unfamiliar room. My face squeezed into a frown as I tried to remember how I got here. Then it all came rushing back to me, everything that happened after Azalea sent me back to my room. How I was accused by Piper of stealing Alpha Lothar's golden ring and how I found out that Alpha k
With each question he asked, he took a step towards me. I wanted to stand my ground and not move, but I couldn't stop myself from doing so. I moved back as he advanced until I was against the wall and had nowhere else to go. A sexy smirk was playing around his lips as he came to a stop in front of me. He was too close for my peace of mind. His heady scent of lemons wrapped around me, tantalizing my senses and all I wanted to do was lean over and bury my face in his chest, which I knew would be strong and muscular. I knew it would be a wrong idea to do so. He might not have rejected me, he might have announced to everyone that I was his mate but… "You must have really been overwhelmed by my handsomeness, that's why you fainted”. He was nodding with certainty as he reached out a hand to caress my face. I sucked in a sharp breath and fought hard not to press my face into his warm palm. My body was tingling with sparks as he caressed my face. "Yes, I was overwhelmed, but what about yo
Bang!! My sense, which had flown out of the window after Lothar took my lips in a plundering kiss, immediately returned at the sound of someone entering the room and slamming the door with a loud bang. I jerked and began to frantically shove at Lothar's shoulders to let go of me, but he only groaned a protest and continued to plunder my mouth with his wet and silky tongue. His hips continued to thrust against mine as he pushed his erection on me. My whole body was still flaming hot with heat, and I could feel a heavy wetness between my thighs. All I wanted to do was pull off my clothes and allow him to…. "What's going on here?”. I jerked out of the haze I had fallen into once more when I recognized who the voice belonged to. Of course, no one else would have had the mind to slam the door of the room the Alpha king was in, unless it was his beloved sister Azalea. Lothar's mouth and weight moved off my body, and as my eyes opened, I realized that Azalea was the one that dragged him
