Will she survive faceless enemies and clear her name? Will love be enough?
Lihat lebih banyak~Fate’s POV~I was holding onto consciousness by a thin thread. I was fighting a losing battle against the darkness that threatened to pull me under, to escape from the pain racking through my body. Through dazed eyes, I watched Alpha Xan stride through the crowd, straight toward me, his eyes a forbidding scowl.I dimly wondered if he was coming to save me and my foolish heart leapt in ill-placed joy. I had been avoiding him since the day I discovered that I now bore another person’s face instead of mine. I remembered how the shock had made me lose consciousness and the pack doctor had told me the Alpha brought me in.I had been terrified that I had revealed something incriminating while unconscious and had stayed as far away from his chambers as possible to avoid drawing his attention. Surprisingly, he had not called for me too and I couldn’t help but wonder if he would dismiss me for being inadequate in discharging my duties as his maid.Nonetheless, it would really be great to have
Alpha Xan's POV There was a lightness in my chest as I strolled to my room, eager to see my new maid. I've been trying to avoid thinking about the crazy attraction I felt towards her since the moment I laid my eyes on her innocent grey orbs. At that moment, I felt a tight fist squeeze my heart and an overwhelming urge to keep her close to me, to keep her safe. It was the first time in three years that another woman aside from my chosen mate snagged my attention. Melissa has been my focus ever since she agreed to be my chosen mate, and I'd never been tempted to lose focus. Until now. So, where did this ridiculous attraction come from? My little maid's innocence made me want to do dirty things to her. Ruthlessly, I squashed the erotic images that immediately came to mind and took a deep calming breath. This was not the time to think about the way I'd love to use my maid's mouth, no matter how pretty she was. A lot was at stake and now more than ever, I needed to be in control
Fate's POV The rich timbre of his deep voice sent shivers down my spine. But I was put on my guard by his disgusted tone. “Yes, Alpha?” I replied with my head even more bowed. At this rate, I would be kissing his feet if I bowed any further. “Who are you?” He asked arrogantly. I quickly thanked the Goddess that Briella had said my name earlier. Otherwise, I would have been in a pot of trouble. “My name is Fate, Alpha,” I said quietly, wishing he would move on already. “Raise your head when I’m speaking to you, wolf!” He growled suddenly. My body quaked in fear at the thought of him knowing I was not a pack member and that he would hurt me just like my father did. I slowly raised my head to look at the ugly demon before me, and my jaw dropped in shock. Holy smokes! This Alpha is the most handsome man I have ever seen! Or he would be if he wasn’t glaring at me with so much contempt. His shoulder-length, tousled, raven-black hair framed a rugged, handsome face with a strong j
In a realm beyond the werewolf world, there lies a celestial garden, a place of unimaginable beauty. Waterfalls with crystal pure water and silvery swirls that shone like stardust tumbled from cliffs in the moonlight. The air was sweet-smelling from the enchanting fragrances released by brightly coloured flowers. Above this garden is the Moon Goddess’s palace, where she sits to oversee the affairs of the werewolf world and judge the souls of dead werewolves that slowly drifted along on the Golden Thread of Souls. A few souls were bright and pure with some darkness, but most were purely dark and glittery. The pure souls were destined for the pearly gates, while the dark ones would go to the Underworld. The Moon Goddess is a creature of exquisite beauty with beautiful, silver, flowing hair that glistens like moonbeams. Her pale blue eyes are deep and mysterious and can captivate the beholder. She radiates a strong celestial aura with a serene, gentle smile and otherworldly elegance.
Ruby's POV The ceremonial hall was beautifully decorated in red and white drapes. Each table had lovely arrangements of rose flowers. I couldn't help but stare! Of course, I also had to ignore the hostile stares of my pack members. This was hard as their gazes seemed to burn holes into my bruised skin. I ignored them and slinked in, spying my name beside my parents' seat. For a moment, I considered switching seats with someone, but that would mean I'd have to sit with a pack member, and I didn't want to. Someone bumped into me on my way to my seat. It was Melissa Parker, Dominic's younger sister. I rolled my eyes at her childish antics as she stood before me, arms akimbo. Melissa had disliked me since we were little children, and it became worse after Ryan's death. You see, she really liked Ryan, my little brother, and hated me for taking him away from her. I ignored her too and continued towards my seat. Thankfully, I got there without any other accidents and sat on the chair
Ruby’s POV (Six years ago) A burning pain on my cheek jerked me awake. “Argh!” I screamed, rubbing my cheek to reduce the pain. “You are still asleep by this time?” my mother shrieked, glaring down at me on my ratty bed. “You seem to have forgotten your place in this pack, you murderer!” “I’m sorry, mother.” “I was only too tired from having to do all the pack chores yest-” I tried to explain, but my mother cut me off with another resounding slap. "Thwack!" “You should be grateful we even allowed you to live after killing your brother,” she said, sneering at the tears dripping down my face. “What is going on here?” my father’s voice came from the narrow doorway. “What has this silly girl done again?” “Can you imagine that she’s yet to start her chores for the day? I met her here, sleeping like an innocent baby!” Mother said, pointing an accusing finger at me. “At past 5 a.m.? How dare you?!" Father thundered, striding angrily into the room. I shrank back on my bed as m
