Anya Zhukov " If you don't mind my la… Anya!! Hmm; can I also ask what happened?" I heard Maya ask. Instead of telling her anything, I just smiled and waved it off; I knew she was still new and I can't possibly tell her my problems, not yet.I was also wondering silently, how and when she became recruited to be a maidservant. A part of me was in doubt, while the other just wanted to succumb in the peace I was currently having. I live for once without bothering about some stupid bonding that my parents and his parents won't accept.That part was more like Nala. Cool and calm yet observing. My breathing was steady inside me and for once, quiet and even quick to respond to Maya. Nala just wanted to stay and not be bothered to think while I also enjoy every minute that lasts but still, they felt wrong!! Wrong about my newly found friend! The truth was, I just can't trust her…not yet and even in the future? It's enough that I exposed my life to her when we have only just met at the ga
Gabriel Moore "Don't tell me shits Martin..!! How can you say my wife's niece visited? For what reason did she come and you delayed informing me?" I asked, infuriated about nearly almost everything. How did they get a U-turn now? Why would they get a U-turn now? Never was it planned like this, not while I carefully took a draft, or was I wrong in any way?. Pissed at every passing second, my thoughts would skyrock; making me think of the worse. Shaking and vibrating at every joint in me…. "I am sorry my Lord; it happened fast ." I heard Martin say. Never did I ever think it'd go like this; none was comforting even when I'm clearly the person that brought all of these to myself. Every perfectly etched plan of mine is either discovered or simply just worthless..! Is it that bad to want to claim what's yours even while it has been years? What does it change? Aren't they all the same? Gritting and gnashing; hissing and cursing, growling… none that I haven't done to get rid of the
Maya POV Twenty-five years ago, according to how it was rumored around my birth; it was noted that a war broke out. A war that made both humans, werewolves and even crops to feel the impacts of how strong it was.Then, I was literally just four; with apparently no mindset of my own. Losing my Dad to the war that swallowed him raw, my world all came to a crash when few years later, my mother called sick. I am just like every other ordinary shewolf with obviously nothing.Around that period of my mother's illness, I came across Gabriel Moore, a man that lived up to his name, our Alpha's brother. He rendered help, making sure to check the bills till my mother got and completed her treatment. He changed my life but that was in some years back when she ended up dead.I can't do it.Even when I knew I promised to pay back in one way or the other, I clearly can't be a mole and be kept in between.It's absorb, absolutely wrong in every way.Though, he was still going to pay me, it was in a j
MayaI never believed what I heard after all of the show that happened. Apart from the butler and I that witnessed the scene, every other maid was sent to their quarter. It was an impression I never thought I would witness. Well, I was just a common person and I have never truly encounter quarrels between royals.Honestly, from a point of view, I think the Princess was very rude to her parents but then it was heartbreaking to be a pawn. I know the feeling. At some certain point, I turned off the recorder as it would be for my own good, to know what truly happened and to stop thinking the Zhukov's are at fault. I strongly believe there must be some hidden truths. It did make a lot of sense; knowing I was sent as a mole to keep track but after everything was revealed, it turned out that I was wrong about the Zhukov's.The room given to me was much bigger than the one I had at home. With nobody to talk to…just myself. This one can be divided in five to get the size of my room, well..
Hayley ArresA rejection like that isn't what I expected; it was a show I would never want to participate in… never again.Anger..!!I felt it, the rush, the need to just run my fist through. Why?Does it have to be Anya? What's with her? Aren't I better?A lot of thoughts, both the questions and answers, all in my head, they felt like a time bomb.I, Hayley Arres… never have I ever been rejected. If this was how it felt, well, it's enough to pull the strings of one's thinking. I felt used, with my eyes wide open, I couldn't help it. His parents liked me; I felt at peace even when I knew it was just a pretense. The luxury I saw and ones I touched was just a mind-blowing outcome of wanting to try.Not anymore..!!It's my rightful position to be the next Luna of the clan. If I hadn't pushed him away then, I could have just dragged him closer.. tell me, who's Anya?She has always been my rival.. almost in everything, only that.. I was well known while she'd just hide.Now I think it's
CHAPTER 31Derrick MooreDown there I almost collapsed of anger, the very kind that was brewing in me.It's a different thing to know that you're separated from your mate; all in the name of making things right when clearly, nothing can and would be right about our situation.The issue of twenty-five years ago would continue trying to break us as it was seen that whenever there's a little improvement between Anya and I, more forces kept coming.How did they try to set me up with Hayley? What does the damned fucking asshole expect? That I'd accept her back because she once used to be my mate?We're all tied, tied to the same tree, nobody wanting to give up. If only the reunion never happened that night..!!If only I had followed Anya's wish and just didn't bother about some stupid reunion that seems now to be the cause of all we are facing.Isn't it just enough? Enough that we are in some stupid bond that only breaks us?I felt useless at this point. My Anya can be somewhere for all I
Hayley ArresThe thoughts kept coming; taunting me to no end; the feeling I would have had clearly disrupted. Peace!How can I be when Anya is at it again?…Though, it makes perfect sense and obviously, I am the insane one between us both still I won't have it… not in my wildest dream.My nightmares started, Anya taking all that I have from me. First she was mated to Carter, fortunately he rejected her but now Derrick? I know I rejected him but I want him back at all cost! Fuck!I can't let her; I can't allow her to take what belongs to me. It's enough to see that I have no power around those men again due to my foolishness yet I am not giving up! The only piece of information that I was forever wanting and dying to hear was that of the Zhukov's.I wanted to know what they were thinking. I wanted to know if they are willing to accept Derrick. That would be my stepping stone. Standing in my room, my own private room, I needed to let off some steam. I can't find Carter anywhere so I
Anya zhukouThe incident I had with Maya; the part where I knew she was secretly recording was totally heart wrecking.The words of her mouth, the ones that once soothed my heart, were now nothing but blunt lies. How she met with her betrothed…, how she argued about orange smoothie?Though it was truly soothing like she said, really?I did take her as a sister; spending time with someone aside from Derrick. It felt calm and peaceful, only for it to be another form of warning that whoever she was recording clearly knows of myself and Derrick.How stupid can I be? To think all she said was just from her innocent mind.. consoling me? None of these bothered me, at least not until Nala spoke in my head."Don't you think something is off?" She had asked.In my lonely room where I let my thoughts go wild, the only place where I can make loose of myself without any concern in the world… I tried figuring it out and truly; like Nala said… it did form a puzzle..!!At the point where my eyes tur
