I bowed my head in fear, "I'm sorry," I immediately bent down, not able to think straight, I tried to retrieve the broken glass pieces from the floor and gather it on the tray but picking the glass up like this, one of the huge pieces ended up piercing my hand.I heard multiple gasps from multiple angles as blood started to ooze out of the affected spot. Disorientated I wiped the blood stains along my gown before getting to my feet and burying my head, "I'm so sorry." I hurried out of the room. I caught the alpha's gaze once and there was no emotion, I was hoping for something from him, anything to show that he cared but there was none. I didn't know where I was going but I continued to walk out of the palace. I heard Melanie calling for me from behind but I ignored her and picked up my pace."Where are you headed?" One of the guards standing patrol asked me when I walked towards the gates that led out of the palace. When I did not respond, he was going to raise his voice at me I cou

Kira I couldn’t stop thinking about my encounter with Lord Arthur. It felt strange that he would want to talk to me all of a sudden. I only agreed because I was still traumatized from what he had done to me and I feared that my rejection would only cause chaos. A part of me had been hoping that alpha would show up but he didn't. Knowing that I could no longer escape from this palace, it felt like a prison all of a sudden. I had a quick bathe and changed into a free gown and was going to lay on the bed when I noticed the change in the weather. I smiled at the thought that the rain would probably be coming to wash my worries away but the thought vanished as soon as it was followed by a loud Thunder strike. It caused me to flinch and hide under my blanket. “It’s okay it’s just rain.”My mind was suddenly drawn back to the night of the war that took my parents life, it had also been raining that night .All of a sudden, I could hear approaching footsteps that startled me, I thought t

I followed quietly behind him not caring about all the eyes that followed our movement.All I was scared of was what he would do to me, I knew that he had gotten defensive because Theo was being touchy, he was only hiding under the skin of us not fighting when we should have been.A part of me assumed that alpha wouldn't hurt me but I was still scared.We stopped once he got to a small enclosed room.I immediately started talking once I saw that we were alone, "I'm sorry alpha, I swear he wasn't doing anything to me, it's all a misunderstanding, all I wanted was some...""You're enjoying being so touchy with other people for someone that wants to keep themselves for their mate." The calmness as he spoke caught me by surprise."It's not like that alpha I promise."I sighed and raised my eyebrows sadly at him, "what are you going to do to me alpha?""What should I do with you?" He put his hands behind his neck. "I don't know." I sighed. "Are you really going to keep him locked up? He di

The sound of his voice caused me to flinch. I stared blankly at him, unable to find my voice. "You can let go now." I finally summoned the courage to say. He set me on my feet and placed his hands behind him, "are you okay?"I nodded Still unsure of what had happened while I was trying to recover from the shock of almost falling to my death."You seem like you didn't know what you were doing back there. Were you trying to escape?""No," I lied. From what I could tell he looked like he was an higher ranking wolf there was something very familiar about him but I could not point it out. "That's okay, if I had to serve in this palace I would do the same.""Thank you for saving me," I bowed my head in acknowledgment.I spun around on my heels to leave before he would grow the conversation. There was nobody else here, the guards were not necessarily patrolling the garden and and there was no telling what he could do and from what I'd seen from the men in the past, it was much better to avo

He went into one of the rooms and set me on the bed. I saw him from the corner of my eyes, pulling drawers open and mixing ointments together. I tried to stay conscious because I didn't know if I could trust this man.I sat up when he approached me, moving away from him like he was poisonous."Why did you save me?" I asked in a low voice.He didn't look up at me, mixing the concoction that was in his hands. "Well, you're welcome.""Let me apply this on you; it will help you heal up fast.""I'd have to take my gown off. I'm sorry, my Lord, but I can't."A part of me was sharing the grudge that Alpha held against him. I didn't know why, but if he was able to make the king angry enough to leave the palace without his entourage, then there must be something wrong with him.He raised one eyebrow at me."The King will heal me when he's back.""And how do you plan on telling him what happened?""I'll be fine, my Lord.""Well, just in case, you can take this with you," he said, placing the sma
