Chapter 25Alpha Jason appeared to grow even more livid at Caleb’s words which seemed to make him finally notice my presence. His hand that had been on Caleb’s neck suddenly tightened around it before lifting him up and smashing him into the wall.My legs finally gave out and I fell to my knees. The tray left my hands and shattered into pieces on the ground. Only then did I break out of the trance I seemed to have fallen under. Tears sprang to my eyes as I scrambled for the pieces. Why did i opt to use the Alpha’s favorite set? Now I’ve broken it. i sobbed as I packed up the pieces of the tray. Luckily, it was the only thing that broke and the rest of the china were still intact. They had probably been cradled by the broken tray.“Amber.” I heard Alpha Jason call. His voice was lower than I had ever heard it. I shivered.“I’m so sorry Alpha. I didn’t mean to break this. I’m so sorry.” I cried, my hands shaking. I didn’t even notice they were bleeding before. My blood was now dripping
Chapter 26AmberIt has been three days and the Alpha had really not needed her but what troubled her the most was her own emotions. Why did she miss him? Was this some sort of Stockholm syndrome? She had basically been sold to him and he had given the command to whip her the first time she was here. She had become his personal maid and he had yelled at her and hurt her feelings a lot. Why did she miss him?He had also laughed with you and been surprisingly nice from time to time. My subconscious piqued in.I sighed, was that enough?Stella wouldn’t give her any work since she was still the Alpha’s personal maid and Alpha Jason didn’t need her either. He seemed to not even want to see her either. Anytime she went there, he had his guards send her away. She hadn’t seen his face for three whole days. Was he that angry with her for causing him to dissolve his alliance with Caleb? Well, why did he fight him anyway? He had no reason to.I’m so free these days and I know it’s supposed to ma
Chapter 27“Your highness, what on earth are you doing here?”Alpha Jason chuckled lowly, almost painfully. “I couldn’t stay away.”My brain tried to put two and two together and when it had fully interpreted the situation, I pulled away from him, this time hard enough to break his grip, there was no way in hell I was going to go through the same hell twice.“Please stay away.” I said firmly. His face contorted at my words in what looked like hurt. Why would he be hurt from my words when he planned to hurt me both physically and emotionally, “So it’s a thing with Alphas huh? First Caleb, now you?” I know I was being daring with my words considering my position as a maid and his as the alpha but why would I play in such a situation?Alpha Jason looked confused, “Why…don’t you ever compare me with that scumbag Amber.” He took a step towards me. “I’m sorry about what he did to you. I would have killed him right there that day but apart from the fact that the consequences for our pack wou
Chapter 28I would later come to ponder on why Jason’s words had so much power on me. Was it because he was the Alpha? The supreme title and position in every pack that comes with so much authority. Was it the timbre of his voice ?at exactly was it that made me plop down unto a chair at his command for the second time today? And to make matters worse, he smirked.The arrogance! Oh, how I would live to wipe that smirk off his face. I should have at least put up some argument and display my stubbornness a bit.I suddenly became aware of my hand in his warm ones, his eyes on me and the small scattering of hair on his chest. At that last thought, I pushed back in my seat, taking a much needed deep breath.“Your highness.” I said disappointed when my voice came out as nothing but a squeak.“Amber.”Gosh, the way he calls my--shut up Amber.“What is going on?” “Breakfast.:” He says simply.“We’re done with breakfast.” I said matter-of-factly frowning at the fact that he had evaded what I
Chapter 29JasonWas I mistaken, though? No. I shook my head even at the thought. I have never felt this way before, never! There were so many things I wanted to know, though. Why did it suppress itself till that day was one and why couldn’t she feel it. The second one killed me more because what I’m feeling was enough to make me hold her in my arms and never let go.Although Amber now looked like a goddess in my eyes, she had always been beautiful. I saw it the day she was brought into my pack. That day I had thought to myself that she did not look like a maid. Was it also the mate bond that had pressed me until I stopped them from whipping her? Of course then it wasn’t so strong but I somehow knew that I wanted her close to me hence why I made her serve me closely as my personal maid.Maybe it was good that she couldn’t feel the bond because goddess knows I wouldn’t be able to fulfil any of my Alpha duties. I was a person who never held back. It was one of the reasons I earned my vi
Chapter 30AmberErica’s promise to me had me confused. After pacing to and fro in my tiny cubicle room for a full thirty minutes as I pondered on what she said to me, I finally came out and went to the kitchen. I felt like my mind was so full and was suffocating me. Maybe some time around other people would help relieve me was my thought as I walked to the kitchen. Lunch had gone by and Stella was already working on dinner. In feeding a large household like the palace, you had to start lunch immediately after breakfast and dinner after lunch…at least that was h ow Stella did it. She gave me a smile when she saw me, “How are you, child?” I shrugged and that was really the best answer I could give her at that point. I have had too many go on in my life in the past few days since came here not to talk of the grievances I already had AKA my parents death and missing my sister. Now the Alpha of the pack I was a slave to was telling me that I was his mate.Ha! I don’t care what you wan
Chapter 31The next morning, I resumed my duties as instructed. The first thing I had to do being to carry the Alpha’s breakfast to him. I remembered just a day ago when he had made me eat with him. Would he do that today too? Although I knew I could really use the good food, I rather not. Awkwardness would be an understatement for how I would feel if I have to go through that. Sitting face to face with him and eating after what happened yesterday? I would melt!I looked down at the covered plates that I was carrying. Although they were covered, I already knew their contents. Goddess, Stella was good! How do you make breakfast, the simplest meal of the day anything but OK? With her, breakfast was yummy. Stella really was the best at this kitchen thing-after my mom, of course-and I was going to snag all her recipes before I escape from this place.I greeted the guards who were so used to seeing me here that their stony faces cracked into small smiles when they saw me. They let me in wi
Chapter 32Alpha Jason had actually cleared the hallways for me and although I was impressed I was still a bit unsettled. How could I be sure that no one could see me right now, dressed in this beautiful outfit instead of my ugly maid garb and following the Alpha out of the palace. Somewhere, deep down I had a feeling that immediately I come back it would be war between me and the rest of the palace and my worries probably showed on my face because as soon as we were seated in the car, Alpha Jason turned to me,“Is anything wrong? Do you not want to go? You don’t seem very happy.” He noted and I shook my head.“No, it’s just that… I was wondering… Isn’t Erica more suited to follow you for this trip? As your mistress, I mean…”Alpha Jason leaned back into his sit and I fear that I may have succeeded in annoying him. I really had I confirmed when I noticed his fingers clench and unclench. I swallowed.“The fact that you omitted ‘her highness’ from her name this time shows that you alre
Chapter 89Season FinaleAmber's POVI was a bit surprised that Mariah could heal wounds yet she was infected by a disease. It was quite hard to believe it but I knew that there was something more to her power than any normal power I've ever seen.We got outside the hospital only to be surrounded by Jacob and his men, at first I didn't even see Jacob but I needed no soothsayer to tell me that these men standing with arrows were Jacob's men.They took Jason yet again and eloped, as they were about to leave, one of the archers shot an arrow straight at me, the shock made me unconscious but I remembered vividly feeling a big hole in my right arm.I opened my eyes to Ian sitting by my side, he was there for me when no one was there. Sticking to me like we were more than brothers, Ian truly showed me the love and care I deserved I a position as this, evening came upon us, Ian was asleep, sleeping like a dove. He used an antidote for the White poison, it was also an incense, I wondered wher
chapter 88Amber's POVGetting a room in the hospital was quite hard but I got it anyways, I was placed in Room 402. The fifth floor, I was lucky I got know that the elevator could take me there, I wanted using the stairs before now."Which floor are you going to ma'am?" The waitress asked as she joined me in the elevator."The fifth, Room 402 to be precise" I uttered, hoping that she would know the room since she was a worker in here."Well let me show you to your room" She conceded to my words, so thrilling."Ok then" I uttered as we got out of the elevator.I was shocked when I kept my eyes, staring at Bellamy who walked past me, I felt like taking the waitress knife and slitting her throat with it but that would get me arrested and jailed for life."Hey, get off my way before I do it myself"Bellamy uttered as she pushed me aside with her shoulders.What was Bellamy sound in the hospital at this point in time?"Here's your room ma'am" She uttered in a mild tone."Thank you so much
Chapter 87Alpha Jason's POVI looked to the back of the person, I realized that she was a young lady, about thirteen years, she looked mature but when I stared at her fingers I knew that she was still very young in age."You can't trust her, she might be leading you into a trap" my wolf grunted."Don't you dare make such conclusions" I retorted knowing that I needed any and every means to find Amber."Fine" He didn't further his manner of trying to convince me."How can you help me find her?" I uttered as I walked up to her."I know where she is" I was surprised that she was bold yet very young."What's her name?" I asked in a mild tone, wondering if she knew who I was looking for in the first place."Amber Williams, her name is Amber Williams and I can take you to her" She uttered, making me scared.Mayne She's one Amber's relatives."Fine take me to her" I uttered."You have to agree to my conditions" She retorted."Which is?" I inquired, what more could a young girl like her ask i
Chapter 86Amber's POV"I'm going to get the money for my treatment and you're going to drive me there cause you're my protection" I uttered knowing how Elliot cared about me so much, he would be interested in doing whatever it is that would make me healthy again."Yeah it's risky, why don't the guards accompany us?" He uttered, allowing the guards to come with me would make Elliot discover that I've been lying the whole time."I'm a poor lady, I don't have money to create a convoy pass" I explained to him as he got closer to me."Ok fine, let's go, it's going to be sunny today" He agreed to my words but added his own findings. I knew he loved nature so his judgements were true."Yeah that's right, Elliot's a busy man too" I uttered knowing that Elliot's a busy man and it would only be a miracle if I get to meet him before he leaves for work.He helped me to the car, being my aid and protection, I couldn't ask for anything more than Ian."Remember you have a mate" My wolf never forget
85Alpha Jason's POVStaring at the look on his face I knew that he was definitely going to make me pay for all what my father did to him."What brings you to my land Jason?""I'm only asking for permission to pass through your lands and follow the paws that's guiding me""What paws? Your father's childlike paws" Everyone laughed at his jokes, he was making fun of my father, he had small paws even when he was old, it was a syndrome and I'm lucky I wasn't infected with it at child birth."It was a syndrome and you knew it, why would you make fun of him now that he's dead, you won't even have the balls to do so if he was alive" I retorted in a mild tone."Don't you ever speak to me in that manner, remember you're in my territory young boy" he wrapped his hands around my throat and choked me a bit cause I was finding it hard to breathe to some point."I'm sorry Alpha Rome" i apologized in a mild tone."You better be , I guess we got off on the wrong foot, why don't you join me for dinne
84Amber's POVI just lost my child to the trauma and brutality of Bellamy, staring into the skies, I couldn't hide the tears that rolled my eyes, I knew that at this point that Alpha Jason had abandoned me but I wanted to be calm and understand the whole issue cause I knew that Alpha Jason's disappearance would only mean that he's dead or he fled for his life."Ian how did you manage to get me out of Bellamy's clutches?""Well I didn't really do anything, the men followed my instructions and succeeded with it, which is the main reason why you're alive, they did their jobs well although we lost some valiant men but it was all worth it""I didn't really see the stains of blood and couldn't even hear the sounds of war actions, it seemed like they were waiting for you to come and carry me""You're weak, hence your mind is giving you a lot of thoughts. Why don't you sit and relax and have a sumptuous meal that I prepared with my hands""Ok fine" I uttered, knowing that his words were righ
Chapter 83Alpha Jason's POV"He needs to take away all the wolfsbane in my body and I don't know what to do now since you did this to me" I shoved a dead glare at Jacob who seemed to be mocking me with a smile on his face."I need his blood, so don't you waste a drop out of it" He had his hands, wrapped around the back of the doctor's neck, which made the doctor scared and a bit worried that things might go wrong if he's not stable."Ok sir" He groaned as Jacob left his fingers claws the sides, his fingers had dug deep into his flesh."This is disgusting, let's leave" Jacob stormed out of the room, wondering what he had in mind, he needed my blood in order to save his daughter. I wouldn't blame him but he should have asked him, I would have thought of a better way to handle it since he was like a brother to me, I guess his daughter's condition turned him into the monster he is."Doctor please do this quickly, the pains are getting more wilder and more coarse" "Let me take of you, so
Chapter 82Alpha Jason's POVI was running, having my eyes fixed in jacob, I knew that there was nothing that would stop me from achieving my goal and that's to have Jacob's head on a Silver platter, he has caused havoc in this land and his aura needs to be vanquished."Jacob ! Your end is now, you would stop causing havoc and you would have your men release my luna and this would serve as a warning to those who would try to be smart like Jacob, you would end up just like him"I growled."What makes you think that I'm scared of you? You're a pathetic weakling that has found it's way into my trap and surely you would be serving as an example to all those who would ever think if betraying the one true Alpha" I couldn't wait for him to finish his words, I pounced on him, gasped as three arrows pierced through my skin, I broke the right pillars of the other building. I rolled out as the building collapsed close to me.I stared into the balcony, staring at Bellamy with a bow and arrow, I ne
Chapter 80Jason's POVI sat at the dinner table of Amber's grandmother's house clutching a cup of tea to my chest. The smell of the tea was slightly purgent but It was a necessary evil I had to tolerate it if I wanted to recover fast. I was doing my hardest to stay in the present. Flashes of my men getting slaughtered before my very eyes ambushed my vision. It had been like this for the last couple of days; unable to sleep, unable to eat. How could I ?I was a failure,.I had failed my men. I had led them into their demise. They had followed me trusting I could protect them but here I was hiding like the coward I had become. I had lost to a disgusting vagabond like Caleb and It took everything in me to not howl out in frustration. I needed to go rescue my Luna soon. I wince at the shot of sharp pain that spread across my ribs cage suddenly. Even though Sharoon had healed me, I still felt some residue of pain in my body. I knew I needed to rest but how could I sleep when my Luna was st
