“Y-You...” her lips trembled as she uttered that word. She was having difficulty breathing after she heard my response to her. Lady Maureen was like Sarah because they were one of the respected women in the harem, they wouldn't think twice but use it to fulfill their agenda.“What do you say? It seems my ears aren't perfectly working,” she added.I plastered a grin on my lips, my eyes became sharp and cunning when I looked at her straight in her eyes. If she thought I wouldn't fight with her because she was a Lycan, she mistakenly assumed that. “Lady Maureen, I don't think there's something wrong with your ears. You already heard me, so what's the purpose for me to repeat what I have told you?”“Bitch, what makes you think you are higher than me? Are you bitter because he forgets you are waiting for him?” she sounded with mockery. ”Lady Maureen, I don't think I'm bitter because I'm only stating a fact. Oh...” I paused with a smile on my lips. “It seems King Edward has treating you t

Sarah had a point. I wouldn't think she was trying to manipulate me. She only said what she was thinking that night. It was strange to agree with her because we used to fight each other, and hated each other. It seemed like we were not crazy bitches who came back to their sanities.That night was different because of the peace between us. I stared at the ceiling as my body was lying on the bed. I didn't want to think about what Sarah had said but I couldn't stop my mind from thinking about it.I recall I asked my mother about it but she denied I was adopted. I didn't know what I would believe in but the feeling I might be not his true daughter had a great impact on me.‘Alice, do you think I'm his daughter? What do you think about what Sarah has said?’I couldn't stop myself from asking Alice. She might know if I was adopted or not. I was waiting for her response but she didn't say anything but gave me a silent treatment. My wolf was heartless, I couldn't stop myself from overthinking

I heard the shout coming from the concubines as they tried to stop Lady Maureen from attacking me. I didn't flinch but looked at her in her eyes when she almost slapped my cheek. She gasped and stepped back. I noticed the fear in her eyes. “We are both a damn slut, Lady Maureen. You aren’t different from me because we are whores of King Edward. You don’t have the right to act like you’re higher than me. I’m not accusing you; it’s King Edward who went to my room and told me everything.” I gritted my teeth with so much anger. I tilted my head and proudly glared at her when I stepped forward closer to him. “We can directly ask King Edward if you want to know if he’s the one who tells me that," I added. Her nostrils almost flared when she heard what I said to her. She began to pant; anxiety was evident on her face. I saw how the Omega looked at me with discomfort. “You’re a story maker. I don’t see any reason why King Edward would go to your room to explain why he can’t sleep with you.

King Edward was different. I used to think he was ruthless with me whenever we were sleeping with each other, but when we had sex, he was full of gentleness. I was curious why he seemed caring, but I didn't want to sound hypocritical by saying that I liked it whenever he was tender with me. I felt like fragile glass, and he was scared to break me accidentally.Whenever I squirted because of him, it was filled with a lot of emotion. He couldn't stop himself from giving me a kiss, especially when I decided to be on his top, grinding his cock and trying to control the pace of each thrust of our private parts. He seemed to enjoy my performance because he couldn't stop himself from moaning my name. I begged him to give me a deeper stroke. Naturally, it was good. I never thought I would experience this kind of care for him. King Edward changed me a lot and gave me the confidence to be strong and fight every woman who wanted to bully me. However, I didn't want to be dependent on him because

Marcus' words haunted me, and I couldn't enjoy the day I was with King Edward. The thought that Lady Maureen might do something nastier to me made my heart skip because of anxiety. The truth was, Lady Maureen had her ways because she was one of the powerful Lycan women in the pack. She might have a connection with her family. I was stupid to think I could easily teach her a lesson by putting her in the torture room. She would be more resentful towards me. I needed to prepare myself; she would avenge herself for me. From the moment she dared to break the rules, it meant she had the boldness because she knew how her other backer worked.I had a feeling that my life wasn’t safe anymore because of them. The thought that I should be more vigilant and wiser because of her made me think I was the living prey she must not devour. As my heart pounded too fast, my breathing became so difficult that I experienced my chest clenching.“Ashianna, why are you upset?” My body froze when I heard Kin
