Semua Bab MISTRESS,NOT MATE : Bab 1 - Bab 10

When it was quarter to 12:00,everyone had gathered outside the pack house. The two celebrants, Sera and Lyra, stood beside their father. Sera was wearing a dress that shone brightly,like a princess,quietly outshining Lyra whose clothes were plain;she had borrowed Sera's old dress. Both were identical twins,but everyone knew who was prettier,although Sera had the aura,but she,Lyra, was the beauty. Her blue eyes were particularly a feature that made her stand out quietly. Their mother stood behind their father watching Sera with pride as she converse with high officials. Lyra stood beside her sister,with her eyes down,wondering if her mate was here right now or if he was not in this pack. Lost in her imagination,she didn't realise the entire place had gone quiet. Slowly, she looked up,peering softly, but froze when she saw the alpha. He had arrived, and beside him,his grandmother ,luna Valeria walked towards the family. After exchanging pleasantries with their parents,she turned to

Lyra walked into the house, and she looked around. The hallway was empty,good. She quickened her pace and soon got to Sera's room,she opened it slowly. Determined to take the necklace,she barely noticed the sky had changed, and it would soon rain. As she searched for it,her heart beat quickened as she heard footsteps. When the sounds got faint,she would be relieved again. She searched all the drawers in Sera's large room that was ten times larger than hers and furnished. Silver polished,sparkling clean. It smelt expensive, and she felt lightheaded, but she didn't want to think about it. Her sister had this room to herself while she lived like a slave. Her hands touched something metallic, and she froze. She had found the necklace. With a smile on her gorgeous face,she quickly brought it out.its golden polished color was decorated with silver chains. The necklace was really beautiful and truly looked expensive. "What are you doing in my room?" The voice she heard made he

Fear gripped Lyra as she walked past the border,wiping her tears. She held the small bag of stale bread and the clothes that Luna Elaine had given her. With one last word,"Don't let them be right about you." What did that even mean? Everyone is right. She is weak,wolfless, and now packless. She sobbed quietly as she continued to walk through the thick forest,legs shaking, but she kept walking. Back at Cornerstone Pack.. Sera and Alpha Kael sat on the bed as he held her closer. "You did just what I wanted,she is out of our lives!"She caressed his cheek as he pulled her closer, kissing her roughly. "Good riddance to bad rubbish,now I have you all to myself," she chuckled contentedly, unbuttoning his shirt as he began kissing her neck. Moaning softly into the night,their clothes soon sprawl all over the floor. She felt on top of the word,she had everything now. Lyra, on the other hand,could barely feel her wolf. The little strength left on her could only take a mile from the b

The next morning,Lyra stood like the other maids on a straight file. Her legs were still bruised, but no one cared to call the nurse.She lowered her eyes, biting her lips as she wondered what task awaited her.Beta Drake walked towards them,his stern face visible as he saw her."You! Wait behind." She gulped, scared. Beta Drake was a ruthless warrior, and he rarely smiled.She stood still as the other young maids walked out bowing down as they passed him."They are rules you must obey in this palace." She looked up slowly."You are to sleep on the pallet in the alpha’s corridor. You will only eat once in a day!Do you understand? " she stepped back, nodding her head."Words! You answer with words! You are a servant here or nothing at all! Now,to the next rule.." she held back her tears as he finished."The most important rule: never look the alpha in the eye,you will, not use your name, and you must not speak unless spoken to." She replied softly."Yes, beta."He sighed, already feeli

Very early the next morning,lyra was already in the servant hall.She and the girl who offered her bread yesterday,her name is Jaya."You look soft and fragile.. and you still won't tell me your name."Lyra smiled sadly,"My name does not matter,I am sorry if that makes you angry.." Jaya frowned."See,you apologize a lot,you did nothing. Not telling me your name does not change anything"Lyra breathes deeply. All her life,she has always been the one apologizing.And now,she was already used to it."Hmm,thank you," she genuinely spoke to Jaya,but Jaya only smiled."I have a name, I think, will fit you! Sunshine?" Jaya playfully mentioned.Lyra froze,she was no sunshine,her entire life,she had been the darkness,the black sheep of her family.She looked away as she wiped the tears threatening to fall."Okay."she replied, and Jaya laughed,not noticing that Lyra’s eyes held water."All of you get to work!" The head maid's loud voice made the maid's dash out,including lyra, who grabbed her c
