AMBER’S POVAlpha Logan had just left my room when I moved my hand and grabbed onto my pillow tightly. I groped around the bed for the bedsheets. I found them and quickly covered my naked body. I hugged the pillow tightly, pressing it against my chest and placing my chin over it while tears filled up my eyelids.Is this why I’m here? Will I continue such suffering in the name of a child bearer for the rest of my life? I guess this is the reality of how my life was to turn out. Is this what I am to face everyday of my life? We have sex while he constantly tries to belittle my self esteem. This isn’t how I pictured myself , being constantly abused. This has become my life now and I have to accept my fate. If the moon goddess was watching over me, I guess my life wouldn’t have taken such a drastic turn, I thought.I shut my eyes tightly while tears ran profusely down my cheeks. I cried myself to sleep that night.The doorbell rang.I rose up from the bed, half-awake. “Who is it?”“May we
AMBER’S POVLouis was right about the milk. I can feel how smooth my skin is and this milk is helping me relax well.It seems I was wrong about this bath. I’ve certainly not taken a bath like this before and I’ve certainly never been this relaxed in my life before, I thought.“Louis, forgive me for scolding you so harshly earlier today. I don’t normally talk to people in such a manner,” I said as I readjusted my sitting position.“No no, your highness. I don’t hold any grudge against you. You had reasons for why you did what you did and I honestly respect that,” Louis replied while massaging my head. “Forget about it. Now tell me, are you enjoying your bath, your majesty?”“Quite frankly, yes! I feel more relaxed than I’ve ever felt before,” I said, wearing a smile on my face. “Can I ask you a question?”“Of course, yes your majesty, you have all rights to,” Louis replied.“Why are there coat racks in every room of the palace?” I asked curiously.“The reason is that alpha Logan and hi
AMBER’S POVMy doorbell rang.“I think that’s Hannah at the door,” I muttered under my breath. “Come in Hannah.”Hannah came into the room with a tray of food in her hand. Hannah is older than me. Hannah is the oldest maiden out of the four maidens that served me, and also the most quiet of them all. Hannah is five foot nine inches tall and her fingers are also very long. Her eyes are still gold colored, which means she hasn’t taken the life of a human. Judging from her calm look, Hannah doesn’t look like one that could kill a fly.“What is that, Hannah?” I asked curiously.“It’s your breakfast, my queen,” she said as she gently placed the tray down on my table. “You had also summoned me, your highness.”“That is correct, I sent for you. Have a seat,” I said as I tapped my bed and she sat. “I want to—”“I know you’re currently angry at me, your highness. That is why I’ve come here to plead for your forgiveness—”If you would let me finish my sentence, you would’ve known that I didn’t
AMBER’S POVAlpha Logan had startled Hannah and I greatly.Did he hear our conversation? It could be possible that one of his men overheard me when I shouted saying that he was a murderer. I think he’s here to kill me for saying that. This was what Hannah warned me about. It’s good he only heard when I insulted him. If he had overheard Hannah and I, it would be drastic for Hannah. I wouldn’t want my words to put Hannah in trouble, I thought.I boldly rose up from the bed and yelled. “It wasn’t Hannah’s fault. It was all my fault!”Alpha Logan glared at me with a puzzled look on his face. “What are you talking about? I only came here to inquire if you’re being taken care of. What fault were you talking about?”“Uh—uhm, you see, I was only talking about—forget about it. Why are you here?” I stuttered.Logan stared at me once again, the tip of my fingers went cold.“How is her company?” Logan asked.“Great! I mean, what company?” I asked, wearing a weird smile on my face.“The company of
AMBERS’S POVI woke up from my short slumber and brushed my sleepy eyes. “Who is at the door?”“It’s Grace, your highness,” Grace replied from behind the door.Why is she here again? Doesn’t she know that this is the time for a nap? I never called her or sent her on an errand. It would be rude for me not to let her in after knocking, I thought.“Come in, Grace,” I permitted her.Grace gently opened the door and walked in. “Sorry to disturb you, your highness, but I overheard your dialogue with the alpha and clearly, he instructed that you must be present during tonight’s dinner—”“Yes yes, I know that,” I yawned as I wiped my face one more time.“Yes, you’re aware. But I must tell you, my lady, you have just twenty minutes before dinner begins,” Grace added.Grace’s words came at me like they were arrows that had been shot at me that were penetrating through all parts of my skin.“Come again?” I had to ask to be quite sure I heard what she said.“My lady, you have only nineteen minute
LOGAN’S POV“Why the hell is she this late for dinner? Doesn’t she know that it’s wrong to keep a king waiting! Waiting for her! She has truly taken her revenge on me for belittling her like I did last night. That woman is unbelievable!” I angrily banged my fist on the hard glass of the dining table.After a while, my child’s mother walked into the room. She slowly walked towards the chair that was opposite mine. From the look on her face, I could tell that she hasn’t seen a dining room as big and luxurious as mine. My dining table was exactly 11.81 meters long. It was so long that one couldn’t see the person sitting opposite him. But not me though. My sight was as clear as crystal. I could vividly see Amber. We needed not to yell at each other while talking. Since we were the only people in the room, our voice’s would echo perfectly.“What took you so long?” I asked, glaring at her angrily.“A lady has to take her time to get ready. The real question here is why haven’t you started e
AMBER’S POVWhy’s he staring at me like that? If it weren’t for what Hannah had told me earlier, I would’ve told this rude alpha, things that he won’t like. How can he persuade me to compliment him and when I ask for mine, he refuses bluntly? This isn’t right. This sort of thing could make me lose my cool easily. I think this alpha is intentionally getting me angry. Amber, you have to control yourself and be calm. You can’t let such a rude man get to you. C’mon, I lived with a man named Vermont. There’s no man on earth as arrogant as he is. If I could live with such a man for fifteen years, I could leave with Logan for a few months, I thought.“It’s all good, alpha Logan, you don’t have to compliment my looks or my outfit anymore. I’m not one of those ladies that needs to be complimented before they get on with their food,” I said, wearing a serious smile.“From the look on your face, one could tell that you have been waiting to be complimented the very moment you put on your dress,”
AMBER’S POVI grinned and rose up from the chair. Hannah came into the dining room wearing a large smile on her face.“Well, how did it go?” She asked impatiently.“You’re asking how my date with a cold hearted, abnormal alpha goes?” I scoffed. “You’re funny, Hannah“Why are you calling him names in the open? We’ve talked about this,” Hannah warned.“Let it be, Hannah. We’ll talk in my room,” I said while heading to my room. Hannah followed behind.Hannah and I entered the room and I began to undress.“You haven’t quite told me what happened during dinner,” Hannah asked as she comfortably sat on the bed.“Nothing much actually happened,” I said, wearing a straight face.I undressed and hopped in the shower. “Your alpha is weirder than I thought.”“Are you going to narrate the whole film or will you keep telling me trailers?” Hannah asked, standing at the bathroom door.“Trust me, nothing happened at all,” I insisted.“Are you trying to say that you both just ate without even speaking?
