SKYLAR'S P*O*VMy heart raced a million beats per minute as I fixed my gaze on Alpha Denver, fully aware that there was no escape from this moment. I had broken the fundamental rules of avoiding beating.I could feel everyone's gaze fixed on me, and the air was filled with murmuring voices as everyone, including myself, waited for what Alpha Denver's action would be."I'm so sorry, Alpha. Please forgive my–"A hefty slap landed on my face before I finished speaking, resounding all through the hall as tears cascaded down my cheeks."You worthless little thing!" He cursed.I could hear the gasps of the guests, none of them dared to do a thing. "Take her to where she belongs." He commanded and the guards quickly grabbed my both hands, seizing me from struggling."No. No. Please, don't take me to the cell. Please, I beg you alpha."He wasn't looking my way, so he was definitely not paying attention to my plea.Being locked in the Alpha's cell was a harrowing phase of life, more like a liv

SKYLAR'S P*O*VMy body instantly froze under his voice, my head contemplating over words to justify my action."You're planning on crossing the territory, aren't you?" I shook my head continuously as I mentally found the words to say. "No. I wasn't planning on leaving the territory, I was only trying to see what it's like outside the pack." I knew that wasn't a strong lie, but I needed something to save my life. He grabbed my neck, raising me up so that I wasn't feeling my feet on the ground. I grabbed his hand around my neck, trying to break free from his hold but his hands were tight.I choked, struggling with the little strength I've got in me. "Please. I was… never trying… to escape." I managed to say, my heart beating faster than the second hand."Do you think I'm a kid you can throw a blatant lie at? I can hear your heartbeat loud and clear, and there's no escaping for your actions."I couldn't see his face. The little light from the moon only illuminated the trees behind him

Skylar's P.O.VI felt my heart beat heavily against my chest as he said those words to me. They felt threatening, and for a thousand reasons I want to believe this man isn't just an alpha.There was more to him that I don't know yet, even as his personal maid, I knew I still have a long way to go before I can get to know what kind of man he is.But then...his presence was something I couldn't comprehend.I thought hard to figure out why I was feeling this way towards his closeness. And that isn't something about how, I had felt it the previous night while at the pack's border.It weakened me, and I guess he felt that too. The way he pulled away from me was an evidence that he sensed it, but he was smart enough to cover up. His scent filled my nostrils that I couldn't get over with the smell. It filled my mind, took over my thoughts, leaving me helplessly enslaved to it.Now, even as his presence is just next to me, I seem not to have understood a part of what he had said. I was still

SKYLAR P.O.VI can't bear this anymore. First day meeting her and it feels like it's been months. Nothing feels alright. I couldn't get over the pain I was feeling on my cheek, and I haven't taken my hand off my face.I got to her room with the help of Mrs. Marie's direction. Walking in, I found the room a bit messy. Things weren't in its rightful order. Her luggage was on her bed, with her clothes scattered around it. The wardrobe was wide open, a few clothes were laying on the floor. Her shoes were in different places, so were her underwear.I stood, glaring around the room with no idea on how and where to start with dressing the room. It was looking messed up for a woman of her age.One might think this room belongs to a child. Even myself standing here, I can't explain what I am staring at. I started from picking the fallen clothes up and hanging them back in the wardrobe, to packing her shoes into the lower drawer. Her underwear, I put them in her luggage, folding the scattered

SKYLAR P.O.V(Two Days Later...)"Yes please, do let me know when you are done." Mrs Kate said to the caller. I was dressing her bed when a knock sounded on the door."Check who it is knocking." She said and I went to open the door.Mrs Marie stood still, looking at me. I opened the door wider for her to enter.Mrs Kate flashed a smiling face at her, "Wasn't expecting to see you. Is there a problem?" She asked, dropping her lip gloss back in the drawer."We received information that the Alpha king is on his way home." Mrs Marie announced.Mrs Kate looked excited. "My nephew is on his way home?""Yes.""Oh, I can't wait to see him already. Well, I need everyone to clean up everywhere immediately. I don't want a single dirt to be found." She ordered."The maids and servants are already working on it."Mrs Kate looked at me. "You shouldn't sleep on that, young lady, hurry up and visit the king's room.""It's been cleaned up for days now." I said."It should be cleaned up again. You defi
