CHAPTER TWO

ALPHA KONAN'S POV

I woke up to the sun sending piercing rays through my room window. I squinted my eyes to avoid the rays from getting further entrance into my eyes. I sat upright on my bed and ran my hands on my disheveled hair and I noticed I was sharing my bed with someone.

Not that it was something new or anything. It happened almost everyday of the week. It was like a normal routine for me. The lady on my bed was stark naked with only the duvet to cover her shame. I could see the crimson red under where she slept then I knew for a fact that she was a virgin I just broke.

I took a close look at her and found out it was Madeline, my most dreaded and mortal servant. How come she ended up in my room and sharing a bed with me. Come to think of it, this was the first time I had taken alcohol and it clouded my sense of judgement. Something wasn't just right. The alcohol contained something else I wasn't aware of.

"What have I just done?" I scrunched my face and face palmed. Of all the beautiful maidens in the mansion, she was the last person I wanted to share a bed with. There was nothing that could be done about it, the deed has been done.

But on a second thought, this was the right time to get my revenge on her. Now that I had bedded her and taken her dignity, I had her wrapped around my little fingers. I was going to taunt her with it. I smirked, a smirk of victory.

I had once bullied and tormented Madeline while growing up and in one of the escapade I forced her to drink wolfsbane. I was curious as to how wolves reacted to wolfsbane, so I made her and a couple of other servants drink the deadly poison just to satisfy my curiosity.

After all, she was a servant, a person whose destiny rested solely on the palms of her master. She was created, born and sold to the alpha mansion to serve her purpose and anything I did to her was justified.

My formidable father who was the alpha of the pack heard of the wolfsbane incident and he went irate. He resolved to punish me severely for my cruelty. He decreed a duel between the both of us that anyone who lost would be banished to the pack borders to fight and suppress rogue wolves.

The intense fight ended even before we started. It concluded with a strategic strike that threw I and Elyan my wolf flying several meters above the ground rendering me bedridden for days and I was banished eventually to the pack borders.

I took a look at her petite body once more lying fully sprawled on my bed and anger stemmed in my every core. I pushed her off the bed with my feet and stood towering above her.

MADELINE'S POV

And there was a thud. I met myself on the rock hard floor. I opened my eyes and found myself stark naked. I knew I had messed up.

With me trying to look for my dress in the pile of clothes scattered around, I was met with a figure standing above me. I ran my eyes from his feet up to his waist that housed his v line shape that disappeared into his trousers. His mouth watering chiseled abs and broad shoulders well sculptured like that of a greek god to the most stern icy blue eyes I had ever seen.

The eyes contained every form of irritation, cruelty and hate, it was at that moment that I noticed the presence of the person standing in front of me.

No-- this couldn't be Alpha Konan and I couldn't be in Alpha Konan's room, naked. Taking a quick look around the room, my fear became realization.

"Awake," his rich voice resonated round the room. This wasn't the time to dwell on how sexy or how seductive his voice sounded. The only thing on my mind was way out of the mess I had just created.

"Can't you respond," he said gritting his teeth.

"No......yes," I replied stuttering. Take your clothes and find your lowliness out of my room. "How dare you seduce me and spend the night in my room?" I am giving you a minute. Anything after a minute and you will be in the netherworld.

I cowered in fear as I scrambled around for my dress and underwear and recognized the blood stain on the duvet.

With my face fixed on the bloody duvet, I asked for time to dress up. "Dare me, he threatened and the first order I will give as the alpha is to tear you to pieces and give your corpse to the dogs to eat."

Out of my room, his voice reverberated with all hostility. That brought me out of my reverie and i sauntered out of the room half naked unto the hall way with the bloody duvet to cover my shame. I prayed for the hallway to be empty and everyone still in their quarters. And seeing no one around, I scurried hurriedly to the servant's quarters.

"Where have you been all night," Petra a servant and a close acquaintance of mine asked. I waited up for you all night and you didn't show up.

"Why are you shabby?" She asked her face showing all seriousness aggravating the ever present wrinkle on her forehead. All of a sudden, her facial expression changed and she began grinning from ear to ear.

"Petra you are so dumb, Madeline must have spent the night with Drey."

"Yeah, Drey", I mumbled.

Drey was my boyfriend and a warrior werewolf who lived and also served the alpha and his family. Our relationship was still in the early stage of holding hands and smiling sheepishly with each other. We haven't even had our first kiss yet. I had not just cheated on Drey with the Alpha, I also lost my dignity to him.

I had always wanted to give my dignity to someone who worshipped and adored me, but that was all in the past. How was I going to tell him? Who was I going to say I cheated with?.

This was an irrevocable mess I had put myself in and roping Drey into it wasn't fair at all.

"Madeline are you okay?" Petra asked sucking me out of my reverie for the umpteenth time that day.

"Yes, I am", I replied curtly.

Prepare yourself. There is an event coming up later in the day and we must be present to serve.

"What event", I asked.

Mate choosing ceremony, the right person to be on par with Alpha Konan will be chosen today.

"Alpha Konan looked so handsome yesterday, with his regalia exuding grace, elegance and glory. Did you see how he swiftly commanded everyone without saying a word. I just wish I could be his mate. We would definitely be a match made in heaven and on earth bound to the moon......."

I watched as Petra daydreamed and ranted on. I just wished my own predicament ended with daydreaming and I had nothing personal to do with Alpha Konan.

That was my own dire wish. Deep down, I knew I was done for.
