Avery's POV.I didn’t wait for her to answer. I pushed past her, hips swaying as I made my way into the kitchen. The clatter of trays and the scent of early firewood filled the room, but my mind was elsewhere.Marla stood at the center, issuing orders.“Thalia,” she called.

I gave her a daring look before dropping my head again.“You’ll wash the dishes today,” Marla continued. “Scrub the floors and disinfect the kitchen.”Thalia’s mouth fell open. “What? Ma’am… I was supposed to clean the Alpha’s room today.”“You don’t question me, Thalia,” Marla snapped. “Take what you are given unless you want extra chores.”Thalia stiffened. “Sorry, ma’am,” she muttered.“And who’s cleaning the Alpha’s room?”“No one. The Alpha doesn’t want anyone near his room today. Is that understood?”“Yes, ma’am,” we echoed.“Good. Avery, you know your duty—you’ll cook and serve the Alpha.”I stared a second longer, then nodded.
