I gave her chores and she has refused to do them! She called me names and even tried to hit me Alpha !" I shut my eyes, keeping my anger well bottled in and in check.

I heard a whimper from her, rewarded with a deadly glare that shuts her up.One glance around the room and I felt disgusted."Get out" I ordered.The very sight of her was disgusting and irritating. I wanted her out of sight and immediately too…"My father asked to see you" she said as she made her way out of my room, fully dressed moments later."Tell him I am not seeing anyone at the moment" "I believe this has to do with the recent attacks on the border" "What part of my words don't you understand?!" I yelled at her. She takes a few steps backwards but not fast enough before I took hold of a handful of black luscious hair."I am not meeting anyone now.

Exhaustion weighed heavily on me the next day, my body aching and bruises stinging even more than before. As the morning light spilled into my room, my weariness tried to pull me back into the embrace of my bed. But before I could find solace, Ms. Emma barged into my room, her face twisted with anger."Why are you still in bed, you lazy fool?" she screamed, her words like knives in my ears. Without warning, she grabbed a fistful of my hair and yanked me up, forcefully reminding me of my duties. "Get to work!" she spat, her grip tightening, and I stumbled out of the room, pain radiating through my scalp.Joining the other maids, I tried to blend in as we went about our cleaning tasks. But it seemed that none of them wanted to be associated with me. They avoided me, casting glances laced with judgement, as if my mere presence tainted their own reputation.Silently, I swept and cleaned, the monotonous routine a bittersweet distraction from the persistent ache in my body and the heavines

The realization that she was my mate hit me like a ton of bricks, and I felt a heavy weight of regret settle in my chest. How could I have treated her so poorly? The thought of it made me feel both horrible and disgusted with myself.Just as I was lost in my spiral of self-reflection, the door swung open, and Tyler, my loyal beta, entered the room.

Joan's POV I continued with my daily routine, sweeping and cleaning alongside the other maids. The bruises on my skin were still as horrible as before, causing a constant ache. I couldn't help but wonder if the ointment Lady Gina had given me was making them better or worse. The pain persisted, but I held on to the hope that it would eventually fade away.As I worked, my mind drifted to the cruel and wicked nature of life. It felt like the world had dealt me nothing but hardship. I questioned why I had been subjected to such suffering and what I had done to deserve it. But alas, there were no answers, only the harsh reality I had come to accept.In the midst of my thoughts, a guard approached, breaking my train of thinking.
