I could see the anger on Nathan's face as he barged into Harisson's room. It was clear he was furious, and my heart sank as I realized that I was the cause of his rage. I couldn't remember falling asleep, but I knew that I had gone to Harisson's room to cry. I had needed someone to talk to, and Harisson had always been a good listener. But now, his presence in my life had only caused more trouble.As Nathan entered the room, I felt a sense of panic wash over me. I had never seen him this angry before, and I knew that I was in trouble. I tried to explain what had happened, but my words seemed to fall on deaf ears. He wasn't interested in hearing my side of the story, and he seemed determined to believe the worst about me.I couldn't understand why he was so bothered about me sleeping in Harisson's room when he didn't really care about me. It was clear that he only wanted me because of our pack, and not because he actually cared about me as a person. I felt hurt and confused by his actio
Nathan's POV:I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Claire had the audacity to question why I was angry about her sleeping in Harrison's room. Did she not understand the severity of the situation? Harrison had betrayed our pack, and Claire was trying to cover up for him. And yet, here she was, acting as if she had done nothing wrong.I could feel my anger rising with each word that came out of her mouth. I wanted to shout at her, to make her see reason. But for some reason, I couldn't bring myself to do it. It was as if there was a voice in the back of my mind telling me to hold back.As Claire continued to speak, I found myself becoming more and more conflicted. On one hand, I wanted to believe her, to trust that she was telling the truth. But on the other hand, I couldn't shake the feeling that she was hiding something.Finally, I could take it no longer. I raised my voice, cutting her off mid-sentence. "Enough," I said sternly. "I can't believe you're trying to defend Harrison aft
Claire's POV:As I lay there, alone in the bed, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness wash over me. It wasn't just the physical pain that came with the rough sex that Nathan and I had just engaged in, it was the way he had left me there afterwards. No goodbyes, no apologies, just a sudden departure that left me feeling empty and alone.I slowly got up, feeling a sense of sadness and regret. I quickly got dressed and left the room, not wanting to be alone in there any longer. As I walked out, I couldn't help but wonder why I had even gone through with it. Was it just to please Nathan, or was it something else entirely?Lost in my thoughts, I was walking down the hallway when I bumped into Velma. The sound of her laughter echoed down the hallway, causing my heart to sink even further. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed and ashamed, as if she somehow knew what had just happened between Nathan and me.But Velma just kept laughing, as if she found my discomfort amusing. It was then

The next morning, I went to the bathroom to have my bath and prepare myself for the day’s work.After having my bath, I got out of the tub, wrapping myself in a towel. As I stepped out of the bathroom, I could hear the muffled sound of laughter and chatter coming from the living room. I sighed and wished I could just stay in my room all day, but I knew my duties as a servant required me to be present.I changed into a fresh set of clothes, a simple grey dress that was part of my uniform, and headed out to the living room. As soon as I entered, the chatter stopped abruptly, and all eyes turned to me. I could feel the weight of their judgmental stares on me, but I tried to ignore it as I made my way towards the kitchen to prepare breakfast.As I went about my tasks, I couldn't help but replay the events of the previous night in my head. Nathan's harsh treatment of me after our sexual encounter was nothing new, but it still hurt nonetheless. I couldn't understand why he treated me with s
Nathan's PovI seethed with anger as I stormed into Harrison's room. The betrayal I felt was overwhelming, and I didn't wait for Harrison to say a word before I landed a punch on my face. The force of the blow sent Harrison reeling backwards, stumbling against the wall.Harrison looked up at me, my face contorted in pain, but I refused to back down. I had always been a fierce Alpha, and I was not one to take such insults lightly. The two of us began to fight, throwing punches and kicks as we struggled for dominance. But no matter how hard I fought, Harrison refused to touch me my alpha, which only made me even more enraged.As we battled, my mind raced with thoughts of Claire. I couldn't believe that she would choose Harrison over me. I had done everything for her, given her everything she could ever want, and yet she still chose someone else. It was a blow to my pride, and I couldn't help but feel like a failure.But I refused to let my anger consume me. I knew I needed to regain con
Claire's POV:I was in the middle of my work when I noticed Velma, one of the pack members, looking around the room, searching for someone. I knew that someone was me. I had been avoiding her since the incident with Harrison, and I didn't want to deal with her confrontational attitude.I quickly packed up my things and made my way towards the exit, trying to be as inconspicuous as possible. But just as I reached the door, I bumped into Nathan, the Alpha of our pack.He had a growl on his face, and I could sense the anger emanating from him. I couldn't help but wonder what had caused him to be in such a foul mood. I had seen him around the pack, but I didn't know him very well. He was always so serious and brooding, never smiling or showing any emotion."Watch where you're going," he growled at me, his eyes boring into mine.I tried to hide my nervousness, but it was difficult with him staring at me like that. "S-sorry," I stammered, feeling small and insignificant in his presence.He
Nathan's POV: I didn't know why Claire was searching for me, but the fact that she was enough to make me feel a sense of joy. I had been thinking about her non-stop since our encounter in the garden, and I couldn't help but wonder if she felt the same way about me. As soon as I heard that she was looking for me, I didn't hesitate to take her to my room. I didn't care about anyone who might have been watching us or what they might have thought. All I wanted was to be alone with her, to be with her and inside her. As we walked to my room, I could feel my heart racing with anticipation. I couldn't help but wonder why Claire wanted to talk to me about, and I hoped it was something good. When we arrived at my room, I didn't waste any time. I closed the door behind us and turned to face her. "So, what brings you here?" I asked, trying to sound casual. Claire looked up at me, her eyes filled with a mix of emotions. "I...I don't know," she stammered, looking away. I could sense that ther

Amidst the jubilant atmosphere, Claire stood beside Nathan, her heart fluttering with a mix of excitement and apprehension.As the pack settled into a respectful silence, Claire's father addressed the crowd. "My dear pack, I have returned to inquire about my daughter's decision."Claire took a deep breath, her voice carrying a hint of determination. "Father, I have made my decision.

Bees buzzed and butterflies fluttered, drawn to the blossoms like tiny, colorful companions on their journey.As Harrison and Sandy walked hand in hand, rays of sunlight filtered through the lush canopy above, casting dappled patterns of light and shade on the forest floor.

The sound of her racing heartbeat reverberated in her ears, matching the rapid rhythm of her steps.As she approached Claire's door, her hand trembled slightly as she reached out to grasp the intricately designed doorknob. The cool metal pressed against her palm, a stark contrast to the warmth coursing through her veins.

A Fragile ReconciliationThe room buzzed with a mix of tension and anticipation as the guards swiftly intervened, their trained instincts kicking in to separate the altercation that had erupted between Velma and Claire. Though Claire emerged relatively unscathed from the scuffle, her brave maid bore the brunt of Velma's aggression, her body bearing the wounds inflicted in defense of her beloved Luna.
