ERICA'S POV
The moaning sound was loud enough for me to know how much pleasure the woman felt from him.
And it made me feel weak and sad for some reason. He was my mate and it was something we both knew. I had no feelings for him but yet it still hurt to see him with someone else.
No! I can't be here, he can't see me here unless he would think I was spying on him and making me do other chores and I can't do that.I had to leave, I would come back later to clean his room but not now.And with that, I turned around but then I accidentally hit a white vase at the side of the doorway. As the vase landed on the ground, the loud sound of shattered glass was heard and everywhere went quiet.
And so did the moaning sound from inside. 'Oh! No, did he hear it?' I thought as I quickly picked up the broken pieces of the vase.
But just then, I heard the door dash open and coming out was Leroi, and he looked as Charming as ever but the expression on him showed that he didn't come out to have a friendly conversation.LEROI'S POVAs I thrust into Alana in pleasure it felt like I was in heaven but just when everything was getting better, I heard a loud sound from outside and it ruined my entire mood.Who dared to disturb me while I was having fun?I strictly made a rule which meant that whenever I and any of my women were having fun, no one was allowed near my quarters. So who dared to defy my order?
I thought as I separated from the breathless Alena, making my way out of the room.As I opened the door in anger, I was completely taken aback as I saw who it was.There was only one woman whose red hair was as enchanting and as alluring as lust and those green eyes which looked like they were given by the moon goddess.It was no one other than Erica and upon seeing her was a little taken aback but my surprised expression was then exchanged with an angrier one.
Taking a stronghold of her, I pulled her from the ground as I said angrily, "What the hell do you think you are doing here rogue, how dare you come into my quarters?"I shouted at her from the top of my lungs and I could see her whimper in fear as her green eyes blinked uncontrollably."I-I…was.." she stammered but I cut her short of her words as I said to her, "Don't even say a word, seeing your face already disgusted me..talk less of hearing your voice, Now! Clean up this place and leave do you understand me rouge!"
I said to her as I let go of her with a force which made her land on the ground hard and her hands straight on the broken pieces of the vase and with that, red blood excreted from her fair hands as she hussed in pain.And upon seeing that, my eyes widened in shock as I quickly bent down And took her hands in mine, saying in my worried voice, "You're so careless….look now, you can't do anything right!"I said as I placed her wounded mouth in my mouth to remove the bad blood. I have to say that she was tasty.Why did I care so much about her, I should hate her because it was her kind who had almost ruined my life but yet all I felt for her was anger and care, why care, just why?ERICA'S POVAs he questioned me I felt completely lifeless as those red-blooded eyes on his pierced into my skin making me have goosebumps all over.
How was I supposed to tell him that I was assigned to his room, it wasn't my fault but the head maid's.I'm innocent but he won't believe me and even if he were to, he won't do anything to the head maid but just warn her and it would make my life a living hell while am at the palace.
I totally can't take that risk so I didn't say a word and I could see how irritated he was with me as he then pushed me down to the ground. Because of how weak I was, I fell hard and unfortunately, my hands fell straight on those broken pieces of the vase on the ground.The pain was like being pierced with a needle as it made my entire body shiver, I hissed as I gently raised my hands but was then taken by surprise as he bent down and took hold of my hands to examine my injury.I could see different emotions written all over his face. Emotions filled with both anger, disgust, and care but why was he showing such warmth and care for me?Why was he worried about me? He hated my kind didn't he but why? Was it because he was my mate?
He was physically attracted to me no matter how much he tried I could see it.It was just like my father had said before he died, no matter how much you try you will only lust and long for your mate and you won't feel satisfied with anyone other than your mate.
No matter how much you hate them, you will always long for them unless you reject them, you will forever want them.But why did my mate have to be such a complicated person who won't make up his mind already?How long was he gonna hide the fact that I'm his mate and treat me like this, sigh…why do all the men in my life treat me like I'm a puppet they could hurt and care for however they like!
I said as I sighed.
As I removed the bad blood from her hand, I let her go and I could see her surprised expression. I expected it since it was a little surprising to see a man who had just literally said how disgusted with you, care for you suddenly. And just then, the door opened and stepping out was Alana who covered herself with the bedsheet as she said to Leroi, "My Lord.. what's keeping you?" She asked as she wrapped her slutty hands around Leroi and seeing that, Erica felt completely disgusted. She had never seen such a shameless woman before in her entire life, even her Father's concubines weren't this disgusting. "Go back in, I'll be there in a minute!" Lecoi said to her and hearing that, Alana nodded as she made her way in but flashed a strong glare at Erica which made her shiver slightly. Did everyone here hate her or something? Erica thought as she the. Directed her gaze unto the man who stared at her like she was dessert. "Get this cleaned up and leave, I don't want to see your face f
"But don't worry Erica, I helped you to tidy lord's Robin room since he was busy, it was easier for me to do it without notice!" She said and hearing that, Erica was grateful. "You are truly a good friend Maria, Thanks a lot...I don't know how I can even repay you!" Erica said. "You can repay me by helping me mend this dress!" Maria got a little confused for a second. "Dress? What dress?" I asked and hearing that, she went on ahead to bring a cute orange maids outfit, "It's the dress that slaves who work at the cooking part of the Palace get to wear for the arrival of the Redmoon Alphas!" ERICA'S POV She said and upon hearing that, I was a little taken aback. The Redmoon Alphas were one of the strongest out of the five Alpha clans and what made them strong was how they derived their strength and power from blood and moon worship. Every hundred years of reign, they would sacrifice a spacial Luna which had the eyes of the moon and her blood shall be their benefactor for the Next c
ALANA'S POV "Clarissa, show yourself!" I said aloud and with that, a white-haired woman with a coat covering her head appeared. She had the blackest of eyes and her lips and skin were as pale as someone dead. "You Deviousness!" She said as she bowed in respect and upon seeing that, I smiled slightly as I said to her, "Have you done what I had asked of you?" I said and hearing that, she replied, "Yes! Your Deviousness, the letter has been sent to the lord of the Redmoon Clan!" Clarissa responded and hearing that, I nodded my head in understanding. "Your Deviousness, how was your night with his Lord, did you manage to sleep with him?" She asked and hearing that, my expression completely changed. "Sleep with him? We haven't even gotten to the best part yet until that stupid slave interrupted us and he stopped halfway!" I said angrily and hearing that, Clarissa said, "That's not good, who dared to disturb the lord while he was with you, she should be killed for this!" Clarissa sai
Stepping out of the bathroom was Robin as he made his way to his wardrobe He had a towel on which cover his lower abdomen but left his bare chest open and he was a hot piece of cake. He had a broad, wide, and muscular chest with that six-pack that any woman would kill to touch. He brought out his nightwear and placed it in the bead then he made his war to his draw to get his notebook. Every night, he wrote things in that book, things that only he had the right to read and see. We could call it a dairy but to him, it was totally more than that. Opening the draw, he looked all over for it but it was nowhere to be found. That was odd, he never kept it anywhere else but there, how could it be missing? No one was ever allowed into his room except him and the maid cleaning. Just then, Robin shouted at the guards outside, "Guards! Get the head maid and tell her to bring me the maid who cleaned my room today!" He instructed and hearing that, the guards nodded as they went ahead to do
"Nonsense, I don't believe you..you will have to answer to lord robin himself do you hear me?" Said the head maid angrily and just then, the deep voice of the said man was heard. "And that she will!" Said Robin as he made his way in with his men behind him. Upon seeing Robin, the all bowed down in greeting but Robin was too angry to even care, he had his eyes fixed on only one person in the room and that was Maria. "You? What's your name?" He asked coldly and hearing that, Maria who was still shocked about the matter, said shakenly, "It's Maria, My Lord!" She said and hearing that, Robin sighed as he then bent down, facing Maria as he asked, "Well Maria, are you the one who cleaned my room today?" Hearing that, Maria nodded and with that, he said coldly, "Well then are you the one who stole my book?" He asked once again but this time, Maria Shook her head in disapproval of his words, "No my Lord, I didn't!" She said and hearing that, he stood up and shouted, "How dare you lie in
Walking towards his study room was Robin who was still upset. He couldn't believe that someone as beautiful as that could be a thief, Argh! It was so frustrating but why the book of all things just why? He thought as he took a seat while placing his hands on his Temple because of the slight headache he felt. And they were just about to get worse as the sounds of heels were heard and it was no one other than Grace as she made her way into his study. "Are you okay Roby, Just leave that slave to me…I'll make her confess in just a matter of seconds!" Grace said and upon hearing that, Robin frowned. "What do you think you're doing here Grace?" Robin ask and hearing that she was a little taken aback. As she then said, "What do you mean by that? Can't I come to see my finance anyway, I missed you a lot and so I decided to come to see you!" She said and she smiled weirdly seeing that, Robin didn't hide how irritated he was with her. "How many times do I need to remind you that I'm not
Upon getting into the dungeon, Erica searched everywhere until she finally found her friend. Maria was beaten up and blood was all around her body. She was weak and looked completely lifeless and upon seeing the condition her friend was in, Erica felt like crying. "M-maria?" She called on to her and upon hearing Erica's voice, Maria opened her eyes and she smiled slightly. "Erica? You are here? That's nice?" She said softly and hearing that Erica took hold of her hands as she said to her, "Don't give up Maria, they just want you to confess so they can kill you but you must not admit to what you didn't do!" "I believe in you and I promise that I would find a way to get you out if there just beat with me!" Erica said as soft tears fell from her eyes. And hearing that, Maria smiled weirdly as she said, "You know Erica, I always knew that a day would come when I die in the palace, after all, I was a witch…a witch hated by all and just as I predicted, my death is closer than expected t
"My Lord!! I need your help!!" Erica said to Lecoi and upon hearing that he was completely confused as he said, "Come in!" And with that, the guards immediately let her go and she made he way into his study. Widening her eyes in shock, Erica had to say that this was a very big and beautiful study. Her Dad had one of these when he was still alive but he wasn't as huge and luxurious as this, totally next level. Taking his seat, Lecoi crossed his legs in a charming and demonizing way as he said, "So tell me rogue, what do you need my help for?" He asked and hearing that, Erica gulped down before she then said, "It's about Maria, my Lord." "Maria? What's that?" Lecoi asked a lot confused. "Maria isn't a thing but a person and she is about to lose her life because she was accused of stealing from lord Robin!" Erica explained and hearing that, Lecoi was still a lot confused. "What do you mean by accused? What did she steal exactly?" He asked and hearing that, Erica said, "Lord Robin
Leroi's Pov The tension in the room was palpable as we all processed what had just happened. Erica lay peacefully on the sofa, oblivious to the chaos surrounding her. I couldn't shake the image of her doppelganger from my mind – the tears, the pain in her eyes. Was it a vision of the future? A trick? My head was spinning."We need to protect her," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "If Bathsheba can create such powerful illusions, who knows what else she's capable of?"Kevin stepped forward, his expression unreadable. "I may have a solution," he said. "But you're not going to like it."I narrowed my eyes. "What is it?"He took a deep breath. "There's an ancient ritual that can temporarily sever the mate bond. It would make it harder for Bathsheba to track Erica through your connection."The room fell silent. The mere thought of severing our bond, even temporarily, made my wolf howl in protest. But if it meant keeping Erica safe..."How long would it last?" I asked, my voice hoa
Leroi POV "Stop staring Leroy you are creating a hole in my chest", she said still staring at the pasta "I don't mind creating a hole in every part of your body", I said hugging her while sniffing in her body fragrance. "I am busy, she said. "Don't worry," I won't disturb you that much I said. "Suit yourself," she added. "Can I return to the company now"? she asked "Erica is too risky maybe a little while from now".I said letting go of her waist so she could serve dinner "I missed your cooking Erica", I said helping her with the dishes after the dinner. "Did the fake Erica not cook for you? she asked "She was so lazy and even still wondering who impersonated your body, that person must be too lazy". I said making her laugh out loud trying to calm herself down in the process. "Why are you insulting the person that much"? "That is not an insult it is just the truth, she was always sleeping at any chance she got" I added "Aren't you sleeping yet cuz I want to watch a mara
Leroi's POV "Leroy did you call for me" Erica yelled from within the closet "Just hurry up I am waiting earnestly for you" I yelled back before heading back to the sitting room to take my phone which I left on the desk earlier, I open the phone to find a message from an unknown number 'no matter where you hide I will always find you' the message was kind of threatening but I knew it was from Bathsheba or Angelina they are my two greatest enemies right now and they both are witches with connection two different breeds, but one thing they don't know is that I am also from a family of strong witches with incredible powers but I'm always in hiding because of their enormous and great powers. "Baby what is going through your mind," Erica said from behind " I want you to meet my family" I replied avoiding her gaze " what family I thought your parents were killed by rogues which caused a huge commotion in our relationship from the start" As Erica they were killed how am I sure Eri
Chapter 75"I am on my way to the city, not too far from the region barrier," I said noticing Erica was now getting calmer than before."Find us, I will call you back," I said opening the passenger seat, to a now calmer Erica."Erica are you alright "I asked tapping her cheeks gently, so she could regain consciousness or at least answer my rants."Leroi, "she said softly, opening her eyes she felt different in my palms was being spell removed?"Erica you are back I thought I had lost you for good," I said hugging her tightly"What happened to me I only remembered confronting the spy and….""You confronted Betty, "I asked"Yes""That was why you were placed under a spell, so you won't tell me," I said still hugging her, like she would vanish any moments"She claimed not to be a spy and pleaded with me to let her keep her job, despite the situation that was all I could remember," Erica said massaging her scalp "Bathsheba placed you under her spell but I think the barrier broke

We would help you but we need to know what exactly happened to her," my aunt said as Susan and my uncle nod in response "She's under a spell but the issue is that, which of you can go and see everything that happens around I don't want her to know about any of you, "I said making them silent as they try to come up with a solution "we will find a way and get back to you. you need to head home now, it's very late already, she is at home alone " my uncle said. I'm prepared to leave as they all escorted me to the front door except Kelvin of course he hates me right now."Goodbye, "I said waving at everyone before leaving I will be back with Erica no matte
~ Leroi's pov~It was part midnight and time for Betty's half-breed's meetup, so we followed her every move. Though we gave her a few steps space as she walked slowly towards the warehouse. She went in first while we stayed behind to find out if the leaders were among them today, and just as we prayed she tagged along today but her face was covered with a hat" Betty why are you late, it's past midnight," the lady said softly as Betty kneeled in front of the lady shivering. She should better not say a word about us till her leader reveals her face. " Betty say something," one of her pack said" You know ….. its difficult to escape the mansion mostly now that AlphaLeroi is at home due to Erica's change of behavior" Betty said " That's true, I hope the spell lasts till we get what we want" the leader responded" But what would happen if Leroi finds out something is really off about Erica," Betty asked, making everything worst. Why would she ask such a dumb question I thought she

She pushed me on the chest" You went to a witch " she added still pushing me I try to hold her in one place but she was already tearing up" I didn't do it on purpose I only went there to save the company" I exclaimed hugging her tightly" You should be careful..all the time, I always thought you would do everything to avoid her because no matter what she would always trick you" " Is that why you hid the fact that a spy was in this mansion" She looked speechless and avoided my gaze"What would you gain from this …all this stubbornness where would it take you," I asked hugging her tightly..she whimpered on my chest" I don't want you to kill anyone""That's why you prefer to be in danger," I asked..she shrugged" So you prefer to make me worried than happy?"
