Se connecter~Emilia~I flinched as the door slammed shut.I let out a long deep breath immediately Adrian left and crawled into my bed.I folded my legs up to my chest and hugged myself tightly.The coldness in Adrian's voice when he said those last words where terrifying.I shut my eyes and threw my head backwards, trying to recall all that happened.I bit hard on my lips when I realised I caused everything that happened.If I didn't hurry him to speak and also talked back when he yelled, it wouldn't have gotten to this.He wouldn't have suddenly turned me into his personal servant if I had shut my mouth.The sad truth was that I am now his servant, though it isn't fully but partially.I will have to walk into his room every two days and take his robe from his wash room, wash and spread it, then take it back to him once it's dried up.It isn't more than the things I did in my father's home, but somehow I have become so comfortable here that I never remembered having a home.I just can't succumb
~Emilia~I bumped into Adrian right at my door.I didn't act like I was surprised, and he didn't either.The urge to slam the door right on his face was there, but I fought the feeling and decided to take up this chance.I stared right into his face till our eyes locked. We both stayed that way for about a minute and a half.He didn't look away, and neither did I. I didn't want to accept it, but I was enjoying this moment until Adrian cleared his throat.“We need to talk, now." His voice was stern, like he didn't stare at me dreamily minutes ago."Huh?" The sound escaped my lips as I swallowed it immediately.“Can I at least come…”He was halfway through when I stepped aside and he walked in immediately.I gently shut the door and walked over to my bed and slumped on it.Adrian shoved his hands into his trousers' pockets, assessing the room like he hadn't seen it in a long while.I hurriedly stood up when he was approaching my dresser and blocked the way.“This is my room, remember th
~Adrian~Austin rushed into my room before I could walk out of the door.“Alpha, the southside armies are attacking soon; we need to be careful." Austin explained, catching his breath like he had been running for an hour.I frowned, staring at him in confusion.“And where did you get the information from?" “This.” He pulled out a white wrapped piece of paper."An anonymous letter from an unknown source”I stared blankly at the paper in his hands, refusing to touch it.“An anonymous letter from an unknown source?” I echoed, walking back to the stool to take my seat.“Explain more on what you just said, Austin; I didn't get it." Austin followed me to the front of the stool and tucked the paper back into his pocket."This later was found in the pack's box by the messenger, and he brought it straight to me.” He pointed to himself, trying hard to make me understand."I read the description on the letter, and it isn't directed to anyone in particular, so I decided to go through the letter
~Emilia~“Just wait here, Ivy. I will be right back." I stood up and was about to taking a step towards the door when I felt a hand on my wrist.Ivy held my wrists tightly and pulled me back to the bed.She shook her head wildly. "He is the Alpha of this pack, Luna Emilia. You dare not confront him for any reason," Ivy said and then stood up."He has every right to punish whomever he wants to punish. He is the Alpha." Ivy pleaded and held my other hand.“It was all my fault, though. I ordered the cloth myself and even allowed you to wear it to the meeting.” She broke down."It's clearly my fault; I caused it," Ivy cried.I gently freed my hands from her grip and gently dropped them on her shoulders."Stop blaming yourself, Ivy. I asked you to pick my cloth yourself, remember?" I explained and helped her sit back on my bed."I should be the one to take the blame in this situation and not you; you don't deserve any of these Ivies, you don't.” I sighed and then stood up again, but Ivy
~Adrian~My heart melted the moment I saw Emilia run past the door. She was completely terrified at the scene she met here.I dropped the gun almost immediately; she shouldn't have seen me in this position.Pointing a gun at someone, and worst still, Ivy, her personal guard.The scene left me in disarray, and I dismissed Ivy immediately.I didn't want to confront Emilia directly because of the dress she wore and that is why I called Ivy.She was her personal servant and should be accountable for everything that is related to her.And that is why I called her in here to tell me the exact reason she allowed Emilia to wear that dress for the meeting. And I was sure she saw the mark on her body after she wore the dress.I headed back to the stool and sat down gently, recalling the way Darius stared at that mark disgustingly, like I married a piece of trash with no value.Emilia must have worn that gown intentionally. She just wanted Darius to see that mark on her body.Like Ivy said, she
~Emilia~I emptied my purse for the fifth time to make sure I searched it properly before concluding.And still the paper wasn't there, and I was sure I dropped it back before going to the shower.I decided to check the couch, where I dropped the purse before leaving, and still I found nothing.I dropped to my knees and looked under the couch, but still no trace of the paper.I pushed the couch forward and looked behind it, and it wasn't there. I went back to the dresser and randomly looked around, still no sign of it.I hissed and gave up in the search. The papers were obviously not here, and Ivy should be the one to answer for it.I tapped my feet impatiently on the floor, my hands on my waist as I fixed my eyes on the door.I heard faint footsteps, and I waited to see if it was Ivy. Minutes passed and the steps faded completely and no one came in or knocked on my door.I hissed again, but loudly this time, and went to sit on my bed.Would it be true that Ivy searched my purse and
~Emilia~I pushed the door open, ran in, and jammed the door again. I lay back on the floor, blinking away the tear that already trickled down.How could Adrian say that? He called the mark disgusting, just like Ava did all these years.That very incident I witnessed only brought back sad memorie
Third POV,“Don't just waste my time, Ivy, or I'll blow off your head." Alpha Adrian grinned and raised the gun to her head.Ivy was shrinking in fear but held her gaze to hide her nervousness."I will just say this for the last time: don't ever make me repeat my words.” He said and held down the g
Third POV,Ivy's hand was hidden behind her white apron as she hurriedly walked back to the servants' quarters and into her room.She has successfully taken the piece of paper in Emilia's purse and was glad she did.She saw everything that happened at Adrian's private office.A few minutes after Em
~Emilia~Ivy looked at the purse, then back at me, and let out a sly smile.My left hand still held the door handle, and I didn't smile back; there was obviously nothing to smile about.I left the door handle and walked into the room fully. My eyes were still locked with Ivy's, and I advanced clos
