FILIPPA'S POV“You stupid bitch. Do I need to teach you everything, every damn time?” A heavy kick at my bedroom dilapidated door jolted me awake from my sleep. My heart was beating, and my body was shivering in fright. I stared at the door and I caught the sinister face of Jessica staring at me. My heart skipped in fear and I unconsciously gulped down the saliva forming. I swept a gaze at the clock and the time says 2:59 a.m.“Head. Head maid Jessica. May I ask for the reason you're calling for me at such a time?” Even though I tried to stay calm. My voice somehow ended up coming out in a shaky tone and stutter. Jessica walked toward me and slapped me so hard, that my face whipped to the side. The effect of the slap worsened the dull headache I had. In the broken mirror on the right side of the room, I could see a pink handprint on my cheeks. Tears pooled in my eyes as Jessica grabbed my chin hard and dug her fingernails into my face, but I managed to hold it in, “Didn't I as
FILLIPA'S POVUpon reaching my uncle's office, I raised my hand, musing on whether to knock or not when my uncle's ugly voice resounded in my ear and had me biting my lower lips and clenching my fist to suppress my fear. "Come in."I walked into my uncle's luxurious office, and I saw my uncle sitting behind the alpha's table with an eyeglass lying on the bridge of his nose even though he didn't need it. We werewolves have sharp and clear vision, don't we?Luna Anabelle was sitting next to him with her face caked with makeup as usual, while rubbing his lap with her hand sensually, "Alpha, Luna." I saluted.Both of them ignored my greeting like usual, but this time there was a sinister smile on Alpha Henry's face which made my stomach churn. I unconsciously took a step back.It can't be that Alpha Henry was cooking a wicked plan like asking his guards to throw me into the Red Mist forest where the rogues are to 'train' me or asking me to be injected with an amount of wolfsbane again, so
A hand suddenly grabbed my chin albeit gently and a warm liquid which I recognized as herbal soup poured down my throat.At the bitter taste, I coughed loudly and spit it out immediately.Soon, my face knitted into a frown due to bewilderment and the pain that was coursing through my body.I was thrown down the cliff by the two guards, I hit a giant rock headfirst before I fell into the ocean underneath the cliff.I ended up losing consciousness due to pain and suffocation and I believe that I should be dead by now, yet I don't understand what was going on. Do dead people feel pain?After exerting my strength, my eyes which seemed to be as heavy as lead finally flew wide open. I glanced at the room I was in.I find myself in a room painted white and filled with lavender fragrance. Except for the soft bed I was lying on and a drawer that was placed next to the bed, the room was empty.A spoon appeared in my view which made me glance at the side; I saw a lady in her twenties dressed in
It turns out that I was out for almost two weeks and just like I'd been praying, Beta Wyatt didn't seem to know my identity, or perhaps he had no aim to raise the topic but still, he was distant and cold whenever it came to me.Through Nancy, who was now a friend of mine, I discovered that we were currently in a villa of beta Wyatt which was located deep in the mountains and surrounded by the ocean.According to the rumors I heard, it seems that Beta Wyatt and his team were out in the mountains to search for something, but I have yet to find out what they were.The only information I knew was that Doctor Asher was also on the team. And he's not only a doctor but also a warrior also which was the reason he hopped on the search."We're returning to the pack today; you can choose to come with us or…" Beta Wyatt says to me a week after my wake."I'll come with you." I interrupted anxiously while nodding my head fiercely. "I'll come with you," I replied again.Wyatt ignored me and walked o
I bit my lips hard to suppress the sob that threatened to spill past my lips and the urge to burst into tears. I've always wished for a mate who would acknowledge me, love me, and care for me no matter what storm we may pass through.Unfortunately, that said mate of mine isn't fated to be with me.Why moon goddess? Why is fate cruel to me? Why do I end up losing the things I need most?Alpha Oswald broke contact with me and looked away with a blank expression.My mood fell, and the room seemed to have no space for my presence, suffocating me. The floor seems to be spinning almost making my leg give way. Only the moon goddess knows how I ended up not doing so."Who's she?" Alpha Oswald questioned with a slight frown donning his impeccable handsome features.'Your mate,' Something in me wanted to cry out but unfortunately, I was too weak to do so. Instead, I could only fight the urge to cry because my mate didn't seem to have the intent to acknowledge me."Maia from Green Mist Pack," Wy
Even though I wanted to break away from the kiss, I couldn't and instead drew closer to him, my mate and I purred in delight—the temptation caused by the mate bond.Alpha Oswald's lips curled with mockery, yet he deepened the kiss. His hands reaching for my hair and running his hand through it jolted me awake.I pushed Oswald, parted from me, and glared at him. "What are you doing to me?" I yelled in fury.How dare he play tricks on me? Not only did he invite me over by stirring up Maia, but he dared to kiss me when he had a partner, and he was intent on kicking me out of the power axis.Oswald shrugged, his face was calm as if he wasn't the one who just cheated on his Luna. This man is simply a jerk and I can't believe that I was mated to such a person like him."A deep warning, mate." He says in that deep, sexy voice of his which weakens my resolve again. What's happening to me?"You don't want to be on my bad side." Alpha Oswald warned.I sighed knowing he was right but asking me t
They both exchanged pleasantries before Luna Queen turned to me."You must be the new lady Wyatt brought in." Luna Queen says with a gentle smile and sits on the sofa, instructing Nancy and me to do the same.My hands were stuck to my lap, and I nodded demurely. "Yes, Luna Queen.""I heard about your circumstances; I'm sorry for all you've been through." She says patiently and grabs a hold of my callus hand with her soft hand."Thank you, Luna Queen." I appreciated, and withdrew my hand quickly. I don't want her to feel suspicious of me. I didn't mention myself as being a slave, so I don't want her to be curious about the reason behind my callous hands. The lies about my identity are enough; I don't want to make another one in case it becomes hard to cover up.Luna Queen smiled and tilted her head. "You looked so identical to a childhood friend of mine. Unfortunately, she died a few years ago. She says and a trace of sadness flashes past Luna Queen's eyes.My heart skipped a beat. 'I
"Maia. Maia." Nancy called behind me. She was trying hard to run after me but unfortunately, she was unable to catch up which I know she won't.She couldn't!I've been used to running and hiding in the past few years; stealing food and running to my favorite yellow mountain to eat the meals.I've been used to trying to run away from the maids whenever they caught me or running from the pack members who intend to humiliate me all because I have once done them wrong when I was a princess.I won't deny it, I was arrogant during my parents' lifetime as the only princess and future Alpha, but everything came to a stop ever since their death. I became a slave, so I need to shelve my arrogance if I don't want to die of hunger.It was hard for me at first, to see my favorite uncle who promised to take the place of my parents in my life in taking care of me, only for him to ascend the throne and make my life a living hell.It silently began with ignoring me or punishing me for no reason or ask
