THE SLAVE WHO COULD TAME THE ALPHA CHAPTER 35
Liana povMy eyes fluttered open slowly. I couldn’t see clearly, so I blinked a few times as I tried to stretch, but I felt something heavy around me. I looked down, and I was sleeping on someone’s chest, a man, for that matter. I jumped up almost immediately with a gasp and a hand over my mouth. He opened his eyes and sat up straight. “Alpha Ryker? No, no, no, no, please no.” I stood up from the bed and gripped my hair in fear. This can’t be happening. I slept with the alpha? How?He grabbed me and spun me around to face him. His fierce eyes were strangely relaxed, and his hair was messy. “Why are you panicking? Are you disappointed it wasn’t my brother?”“You’re insane. How could you do this? How could you take advantage of me?” I was almost on the verge of tears. “Advantage of you? Liana, you came on to me. And why are you sad? Do you know the number of women begging to warm my bed?” My hand flew across his face, slapping him hard. “Do I look like I want to warm your bed? How

Liana pov The hallway to the servants' chamber became unexpectedly long and swirly. I could not see where I was going. It felt like everything was just bouncing around, and I could hardly focus. What is happening to me? Am I sick? Before my mind could wander further, I felt strong hands around me. I looked up and almost squealed. Lord Vance was actually here with me, holding my hand. How many times is he going to be my saviour? At this point, the moon goddess is just shoving my mate in my face, and I must have him. What if lord Vance is my mate? He also has a mate, and the moon festival is soon approaching. What if we’re mates?Would he accept me or reject me because of my status? Does he like me?Why is he always so kind to me? Does he see me as pitiful? Is that why he’s always looking out for me? Or is it because I’m sick? Why am I even thinking about all of this? There’s no way he would be my mate. I’m too weak, fragile, I can’t even go a day without my heart flaring up. Why

Liana povTonight was no different, so many nobles were in the palace, but this time around, they were mostly men, and the women who came were only entertainers. Anytime I sent a tray of wine, I saw how the men stared at the women as they danced. The women were absolutely gorgeous, adorned in fine silk and jewellery. They were breathtaking. I noticed that Lord Vance was not around, and that kind of warmed my heart. I served the tray of wine and walked towards the kitchen to fill up more glasses. I met Stella on the way.She grabbed my hand and pulled me to the side. Her eyes darted around to check if someone was in earshot. “Okay, spill it.” She looked me dead in the eyes when she said that. My brows creased as I gazed at her. “Spill what?”She breathed out slowly as she released my hand and dropped her hand on her hips. “One of the servants said that the Alpha is fond of you. What did you do to get in his good books?” I blinked rapidly, waiting for me to answer. I chuckled lightl

Liana pov“Why are you doing this?” Vance’s voice cut through the silence of the chamber. I kept scrubbing. The brush dragged against the stone floor, sending dirty water over my fingers. My knees ached, my back felt like it was going to snap, and every part of me was begging me to stop. But I refused to give Vance the satisfaction of seeing me break.“I was told to clean it,” I said quietly.Vance looked from me to the bucket beside my knee, then back at me. His expression hardened. “Who told you? I hesitated. I didn’t need to answer. The sound of the door opening behind him answered for me.Ryker stepped into the chamber.His black eyes immediately landed on Vance. Then they shifted to me. I was still kneeling on the floor, sleeves rolled up, hands wet and red from scrubbing. There was a long silence.“What are you doing here?” Ryker asked.Vance turned toward him. “I came to check on something.” Ryker’s eyes narrowed. “In my chamber?” Vance didn’t move. “I found her here.”“And?”

Ryker pov I pulled back from Scarlet's lips, letting out a heavy, tired sigh. My hands dropped from her neck. I couldn't do this. I was completely turned off, and trying to force myself to touch her just made my skin crawl. Scarlet blinked up at me, her painted lips slightly parted, looking completely confused. She reached her hand up, gently caressing the side of my face and running her soft fingers through my dark hair. "Ryker?" she whispered, her brow furrowing. "What's wrong? Why did you stop?" "I'm not in the mood, Scarlet," I said, my voice dead and emotionless. I took a step back, breaking her touch entirely. "Go back to your room." Her jaw dropped in utter disbelief. "What? You pulled me all the way down the hall, dragged me into your doorway, kissed me, and now you're telling me to just leave?" "I said I'm tired," I lied, keeping my tone completely flat as I leaned against the heavy wooden doorframe. "It's been a long night. I need rest." Scarlet’s eyes flashed with pu

liana pov“Two for copper.”I looked down at the tomatoes in front of me.“No, these are too soft.”The merchant laughed. “Then take those.”He pointed toward another basket.I picked one up and pressed my thumb gently against it. Perfect. I smiled.“I'll take six.”“Six?”“Yes.”He began counting them into my basket while I looked around the market. Polaris Citadel was unusually busy that morning.People moved from one stall to another, arguing over prices, carrying baskets and calling out to one another.A little boy ran past me with a loaf of bread tucked beneath his arm.“Come back here!” A woman chased after him, laughing.Somewhere behind me, a merchant shouted about fresh meat. The smell of baked bread drifted through the air.I smiled. I loved the market.It was one of the few places in the Citadel where everyone seemed to forget their place for a little while.Rich and poor stood beside one another. Nobles came with servants. Farmers came with baskets. Children ran through th
