21: Epic Fail

Maria's POV My blood froze just as my face did. I had not expected to be betrayed like this. I wondered if Maya knew about what was going on. Alpha Felix had known all along but kept quiet about it. Why had he gone ahead with the plan if he knew it wasn't me he was sleeping with? I couldn't believe it. A plan I had worked so hard to think through had failed even before it started. It hurt and my ego was bruised too. "You didn't think a flimsy blindfold would convince me to touch another woman that wasn't you?" He asked and a mischievous smile spread on his face. "I...I... I didn't know. Why would Dexter...""Oh please? You think because he treats Maya the way he does that he is a good person? Have you ever wondered what he would do if he wasn't the head of the clinic?" He asked me and I stood there not knowing what next to do."Dexter loves her," I said, refusing to believe the words that were coming out of his mouth. "Suit yourself. To be honest, I couldn't care less about that

22: Walking on eggshells

Maria's POV "Can you even hear what I am saying at all?" Maya's voice cut into my thoughts and I nearly jumped. My fate here has turned for the good but finding out that Maya was merely a pawn for Alpha Felix hurt my heart. I didn't know if I should believe what Dexter was saying or warn Maya to be careful. I decided to get the exact picture of what she was going through from her. "How's your relationship with Dexter?" I asked her and she paused for a brief moment before speaking. "It's good. You know how much he loves me. Why are you asking this?" She asked me and it was my turn to hesitate before speaking. "I just want to be sure that everything was really fine. Remember that you have helped me come out of a dark place, if there is anything happening to you that you feel like I should know, I promise that I won't judge you or make you feel...""Slow down," Maya said, cutting me short with a wave of her hands, "have you been listening to the rumors?" She asked me and since I had

23: A penchant for Evil

Sophie's POVI made my way to the servant's quarters, my chest bubbling in anger. They had no right to treat me like I was not important in the grand scheme of things. I huffed and puffed all the way to my chambers, ignoring everyone every step of the way. Slamming the door to my room, I threw my clothes on the bed and let out a howling scream. My plans were not going so well and the mere thought of it was frustrating me. I couldn't believe that Alpha Felix had given the judgment that he did. Just then the door eased open and my secret lover walked in. We have been together since I came to the palace and he was the only thing that had been keeping sane in my quest to ascend to the hierarchy. "What do you want Dexter?" I sneered at him as he made his way towards me and gathered my waist in his arms. "I came straight from the clinic. I didn't want you to be alone tonight. Will you go with me back to my place?" He asked me as he rained kisses on my ears and my neck. I mumbled a few w

24: A Different Plane

Alpha Leo's POV I was finding it hard to believe that I was actually worried about the breeder girl. The weeks were rolling by and I was not any closer to finding her than when I started. She also had the ability to hide herself well and the only thing I could think about was her guts to run away from my pack. "A penny for your thoughts?" Sophia said from behind me and I smiled at her, pulling her close to me. She was my soulmate and the woman that I truly loved but in recent times, I have been thinking too much about Maria. "It's nothing. Just a little thought about the sock and all that is going on. I'm just thinking of ways to make life better for everyone" I responded and moved to the other side of the room, suddenly feeling crowded up with Sophia's presence. "Don't spend any time on that. We need to conduct our marriage. You have been putting it off for several months now. What could be holding you back?" She asked me and I could see the maddening glint in her eyes. It was on

25: Petty Reasons

Sophia's POV He was distracted. I knew it. I just didn't know why she had that effect on him. When I saw her, from the first day, I knew that she would give me problems. He had been awestruck at first and I couldn't help but wonder if she was his true mate. "Are you ready to leave now?" He asked me when I entered his office. I shook my head and sat down, he looked at me with a scrunched eyebrow before he said anything else, "You don't want to go anymore?" He asked me, a look of anticipation. "I haven't changed my mind but I want to speak to you before I leave," I said and he dropped his pen and the document that he had been working on before I came into his office. "What do you want to talk to me about?" He asked with keen interest and rapt attention. "I think there is something going on between you and the breeder girl that you haven't told me about. I noticed that ever since she left, you have been withdrawn and moody, getting sad each time your men come back with a report that

26: A Twisted Reality

Maria's POV "It's still not working?" Maya said and tried to pull out the shoe from under the chair. She had seemed a bit off all evening and I couldn't imagine why. I felt guilty that I was not telling her what I knew even though she had been nothing but nice to me since we met. "Yes. Just leave the shoe here. I'll get you another one" I said to her and sat down. Somehow, I had gotten her shoe caught between chairs and it was even ruined already. She definitely needed the new ones. "I think Dexter isn't being honest with me." She whispered, her voice quiet and broken as she tried to blink back the tears that had gathered in her eyes. "Why? Did he do something?" I asked her, not wanting to seem like I knew something. She was smart to have picked out that something was wrong with him because something was. "Yes. He has refused to keep to the first promise he made me. I should have been out of here by now, our own little paradise should have started but every time I remind him abou

27: A new life

Maria's POV I didn't stop running until the back of my feet felt hurt from slapping them on the cold sand. A tree had cut me but I didn't even stop for one moment. I could feel my skin closing after a few hours of running, but even then, I knew I wasn't doing all this by myself. There were several times that I had felt Alpha Felix close but I knew that with the huge gash the vase had made on his head. He would not be stable enough to chase me immediately if the guards caught me and took me back there, I knew it was death. Finally, I found a stream, I looked around me to make sure that no one was following me before I collapsed in the water. It soothed my sore body and helped to relieve the pain I was feeling in my leg. The water looked small enough and I really just wanted to relax a bit. A whole lot of thoughts rang in my head but still, no one shook me like the betrayal of Maya. I thought she wanted us to be friends, no wonder she was crying, she knew the extent of her betrayal.

28: Far from Settled

Alpha Felix's POV I held my head and stomped back to the palace. She had escaped. She had run, after letting that filthy boy pleasure her in the same ways that I had wanted to do. I felt foolish, revealing all my dealings with Dexter to her while she had probably gone behind me to sleep with him. The thought of it gnawed at my heart and the anger refused to stop burning my chest. I should have taken her when I had the chance, even if it had to be by force. "Any luck, Alpha?" Sophie asked me as soon as I got to the palace. She had a bowl of warm water waiting with a towel to wipe the caked blood off my face. "No. Where are all my guards?" I asked her, seeing that the hallway that led to my chambers was empty. "I sent everyone to other parts of the palace. Tonight, I am the only one that will take care of you. They would all be ba...""And what gives you the right to give orders to my guards?" I barked, shocked at her effrontery. "I...I just thought you would want to focus on heal

29: Hitting A Rock

Alpha Felix's POV I grabbed her legs, I didn't even wait to think about it before I delved for her. She had some explaining to do and there was no way I would let her get the easy way out. "You are not dying today" I muttered as I removed the rope from her neck and carried her down. She was coughing violently and I could see how red and bulky her eyes were. "Just let me die" she cried but I took her to the chair and carefully strapped her in. She had a lot to tell me and it would be better for her if she just started talking already. Her eyes were filled with shock when I secured her tightly to the chair with the same rope that she had been trying to use to kill herself. "What are you doing?" She asked me, her eyes were clear and devoid of the pitiful demeanor that she had been wearing since Maria escaped from my hands. "I am sure that you are not blind, so you can see what I am doing is tying you to a chair" I responded, my tone cold and calm, almost like I wasn't planning to to

30: Finding A New Path

Maria's POV It has been three days since I regained consciousness. So far, everyone has been very kind to me and the Alpha has not shown any signs of being a creep yet. Everything was going smoothly so far, in fact, I was healing so nicely that I could take a stroll by the end of the third day. "How are you doing today?" The alpha asked me and I beamed at him. He has been coming to check on me every day for the past three days. I had even begun to look forward to his visits. "I am doing very well Alpha. Welcome" I said and made to stand up, but he quickly waved his hands at me, motioning for me to not bother doing that. "Thank you. Elvira said you are healing nicely. I take it that you feel the same way?" he asked me, his eyes filled with genuine concern. "Yes, everything is healing nicely. I can barely feel the pain in my head. It comes and goes now" I explained to him, excited to share the details of my day with him. There was how he made me feel, he made me feel safe. It was
