Chapter 7 As I stood there watching the palace's high gate, I took a deep breath. I haven't been to the front of the palace in a long time, but it never ceases to amaze me. If I ever get a job here as a housekeeper, I'll be able to find Shena faster and, well, see Alpha Greyson more often.It's only been a few months since Alpha Greyson took over as Alpha king of the North Snow kingdom after his parents were killed in the war between Rema and North Snow. Despite the extent of the war's devastation, Alpha Greyson quickly devised a plan to rebuild the kingdom. Many people are impressed by his leadership abilities and intelligence."Excuse me?" the five guards stationed at the gate turned to me. I was worried because the two giant wolves with them were also staring at me. Even if I transformed into a wolf, I'm sure I couldn't match the size of these two wolves."Identify yourself," one of them said. I nodded and quickly took out the paper on which I would introduce myself and the invita
Chapter 8Gina escorted me to the room. The three of us will share the same bedroom, and Gina happened to be one of us. The housekeepers' room is in the palace's farthest wing, close to the palace kitchen. Despite the fact that there are three of us in the same room, we have separate beds. I never imagined that my life would change so drastically in such a short period of time. It seems like a long time ago that I was inside a small house with Shena, happily discussing the events of our day.I looked around the room and noticed another of our companions conversing with Gina. She appears to be nice and sweet. Like Gina, she is probably about my age."Hi! My name is Yna. I've also been one of the housekeepers for almost two years now! How about you? What's your name? " She asked cheerfully, and I smiled and accepted her handshake."My name is Amara... Amara Brooks, the new housekeeper," I introduced myself. She nodded and looked at me for a long time. I was a little perplexed. "I'm sorr
Chapter 9I stayed up a little longer because of what happened the night before, but I still insisted on getting up early as Mrs. Clea said. I wore my housekeeping uniform because it was my first day and I didn't want to make a bad impression on anyone, especially Mrs. Clea.I wore my housekeeping uniform. It fits perfectly for me."Why do I have the feeling that whatever you wear suits you?" Gina asked as I scanned myself in the mirror. I smiled and shook my head. "I may believe you, Gina," I joked. "And you'll believe the truth," Yna added. I just shook my head and chuckled.We left the room together just in time to meet Joy and her group. Whenever I'm with Gina and Yna, they always notice everything about me, so I'm getting used to what they say even though most of me doesn’t believe it.I was surprised when Joy looked at me and purposefully rolled her eyes, "Did you see that?" Yna noticed it too! "She rolled her eyes at us!" Gina exclaimed. "It appears that I was the one she rolle
Chapter 10 What I heard and saw astounded me. I couldn't stop thinking about what had happened earlier even while Gina and I were cleaning a room in the palace. I was aware of the rumors about Alpha Greyson being cruel, but I also understand that it is a leader's responsibility to be cruel and strong in the eyes of his subordinates so that no one despises him.However, seeing the truth with my own eyes shocked me. I've long admired the Alpha King for his elegance and intelligence in all aspects of life, but I can't accept that he would sacrifice an innocent life to achieve his goal.I had no idea that knowing the truth could be so painful. But it's funny how, even knowing the truth, I can't stop my heart from loving him. "I noticed you’re quiet the whole time?" Gina inquired."Because I can't get what happened earlier out of my mind," I admitted as I mapped the floor of the room, we were cleaning."Perhaps you're shocked because this is your first step here in the palace, but such a
Chapter 10.1"Fuck!" yelled Alpha Greyson angrily. We all took a look at their sides, and it was amazing how quickly Alpha Greyson removed his vest and clothes! When I saw his masculine and very manly upper extremities, my jaw dropped. He has an extremely detailed body that any woman would kill to touch! Damn it! I shouldn’t be thinking about this!When I saw how the guards held Joan while she cried for forgiveness, I stopped staring at Alpha Greyson's body."Please forgive me, Your Majesty! It will not happen again! Please spare my life and forgive me!" Joan begged as the palace guards held her tightly. I was startled by the coldness seen in Alpha Greyson's eyes.I feel that he is very far away from me. Only now did I truly realize how different he was from the person I thought he was. I just realized that I knew him wrong. Alpha Greyson stepped towards Joan and gripped her jaw tightly. Joan winced and cried."Amara... Bow your head! You shouldn't be seeing this! " Yna said by my sid
Chapter 11 Mrs. Clea quickly snatched me up, went to my room, and shut the door. Yna and Gina were left outside while Mrs. Clea was tense inside our room. "Don't you know how dangerous what you did was, Amara?" Mrs. Clea’s voice was angry. I bit my bottom lip because I knew Mrs. Clea was right. I consider myself fortunate to be alive. Because it's wrong no matter which way you look at it."I'm sorry," I admitted regretfully. I overheard her sighing incongruously. "The last thing Vikki wants you to do, Amara, is get involved with the Alpha King because you know how dangerous he is!" Mrs. Clea said as I bit my lower lip. Is the Alpha King's attitude truly so bad that she fears for my life?"Is he really that cruel, Mrs. Clea?" I asked, looking her in the eyes. I've seen everything earlier, so why don't I believe it now? Is it true that I am so blind to the truth that I refuse to accept everything?Mrs. Clea came up to me. "You are very beautiful, Amara, and this must be one of the reas
Chapter 12 I was trembling as Gina and I walked toward the dining area. I'm not sure what I'm feeling. As I walk behind Gina, my hands are cold and my face is turning pale."Gina..." I called out to my friend. She looked at me. "Why?" she asked, concerned. "Are you nervous? " She obviously asked, and I quickly nodded. She sighed and grabbed both of my shoulders, looking into my eyes."Don't worry, just obey everything the Alpha King wants, and you'll be saved," she preached to me. I'd like to make a complaint. So, what if I want to fight? Even if I'm just a housekeeper, I don't want my personality to be trampled on.The Alpha King should treat his subjects as a treasure, not as slaves! Eventually, I just nodded to Gina. I can't do anything because he's still an Alpha king no matter what. I had no choice but to follow.When we arrived at the dining area, I immediately formed a line with the other housekeepers who were present. I noticed the Alpha King sitting at the head of the long t
Chapter 13 I observed Mrs. Clea, who was agitated in front of me. Gina, Yna, and I are now in Mrs. Clea’s office. After what happened at the Alpha king's lunch, Mrs. Clea is obviously concerned.But I can handle myself. I know it's dangerous to get close to Alpha Greyson. Maybe now he is planning how to torture me. I accept everything again. All I have to do is be strong until I find Shena."Mrs. Clea, I'm fine; you don't have to worry about it," I said to calm her down. She came to a halt and turned to face me. I couldn't see what was in her eyes, but I could tell she was worried about me."No, Amara, you don't know Alpha Greyson; he's...too much for you," Mrs. Clea expressed concern. I sighed deeply and bit my lower lip."Mrs. Clea how about we just make Amara run away now?” Gina suggested. I quickly shook my head at Gina. "Don't! If you do that, you will be the ones who will be punished! I can't let that happen, Gina!” I strongly refuse.“But…Gina is right, Amara. You will be bett
Epilogue I found her in the town of Tyreese. Miguel helped me in locating her. I still don't totally trust Miguel, but I need his knowledge at this point. The officials assumed Miguel was dead, so he remained dead for everyone. I'm the only one who knows he's alive, and he's discreetly helping me in finding Amara. According to his narrative, a human couple took her there and treated her as if she were their own daughter. I was relieved to learn that she was still alive. I had almost given up hope for over two years, but when I found out she was still alive, I couldn't help but meet her immediately and clasp her in my arms. But my sense of hope was dashed when Miguel revealed more facts about her. "While investigating her traces... I discovered that the human couple had taken her to the hospital for humans, so I went there to inquire about Amara's medical information and found that... she couldn't remember anything from her past," Miguel continued, making me stand up in irritation.
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 10) But things became much more complicated when Elder Mateo accused Mrs. Clea of spreading the accusations against Amara. It greatly affects Amara. Mrs. Clea is her friend; therefore, I understand her emotions."What should we do, your Majesty?" Elder Raymond worriedly questioned as I considered the plan."Everyone will believe you're on the wrong side if you try to protect Mrs. Clea. They could use this as an excuse to dethrone you! Perhaps we should just let it all go and wait for the appropriate moment to strike!" Elder Raymond proposed. My jaw clenched."I can't let Amara... get into this," I replied quietly. If I take it any longer, Amara will get angrier with me. Damn it!"But..." I sprang up and prepared to respond before he could speak. I went downstairs in stealth to see Mrs. Clea. As I saw them torment Mrs. Clea, I couldn't help but feel enraged. I just stopped when Miguel spoke."What are we going to do if she doesn't confess?" Miguel asked Mateo."Tha
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 9)I focused on finding Dylan. I'm not going to let him hurt Amara again. I'm not going to let him touch Amara again. I will go to whatever length to remove him from this world. But every time I fail to find him, I am filled with rage and restraint."Someone is betraying you, your Majesty," Elder Raymond warned me when I saw the survivor of the troops. I sent a group to look for Dylan, but they failed like any other squad. It seemed as if someone was watching our movements and calculating our intentions before we could attack. That's when I realized something wasn't right. I knew something was wrong the moment Prince Henry died. I was so preoccupied with Amara these days that I forgot to focus on that part."I know," I grumbled. Elder Raymond fixed his gaze on me."And do you know who that is?" he wondered. My jaw clenched. I already feel about the Elders, but I'm not sure who I'm thinking of. And the thought of his becoming a traitor enraged me.But despite the pr
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 8) I convinced myself that I felt all of this for Amara because she was what the Moon Goddess desired for me. Because if I don't, I might fall into a trap. I don't know her. I knew nothing about her and couldn't believe the Moon Goddess had chosen her to be my mate. What if Miguel really is right and she is Rema's spy? That's why, even though my emotions keep hammering inside me, I'm doing everything I can to put up a barrier between us. It was like a protective mechanism. I don't want her to cause me any more misery than I already have.That's why when she told me that she loved me before our wedding day, I couldn't deny that I almost believed her. What if this is really her plan to make me fall for her and then hurt me? That bothers me. I don't want that. That's why I kept my distance from her. But before the ceremony of our wedding, Miguel reported something to me."There's a chance she's Princess Harper, your Majesty," he said. I clenched my teeth. Really? Is
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 7)"Her name is Amara Brooks, and she is an orphan from the Western Regions. She is not a member of any packs, and... There's not much information about her," Miguel informed me. I stared at that girl's documents, in her photo, and the more I stared at her picture, the more I noticed resembles between her and the Princess of Rema Kingdom."I want you to investigate further," I said, and Miguel quickly nodded and left my office. If she is the Princess of Rema Kingdom, why couldn't she mention anything about me? Her eyes are screaming with indifference, which means she doesn't remember me or anything. Or maybe I was wrong? Maybe I was just thinking too much?But, if she is the Princess, why couldn't I find her while she was just in the Western Regions?I took a deep breath and everything was decided. I couldn't wait any longer for Miguel's investigation to be completed. I want to get to know her right away. So, I appointed her as my personal servant. If she is not ne
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 6)"We need to find your mate now, your Majesty, to reassure our people," Elder Mateo remarked as we sat in this conference room for our meeting. I've had enough of our present issue for quite some time. We just ended our kingdom meeting and are now coming down to do this. The topic about my mate."I told you; I couldn't feel anything or anyone inside the palace, or even the Kingdom," I grumbled."Then, your Majesty, we must throw a party in the palace and invite every woman living inside or outside our lands to find your mate," Elder Samuel advised. I clenched my teeth. That's how the meeting concluded. I was opposed to us throwing a party, but they thought it was a wonderful idea.I'm not very interested in finding a mate. I was preoccupied with being the Alpha King. And I was busy searching for someone...When I heard a knock on my office door, it brought my thoughts to a halt."Come in," I invited. Miguel walked into my office. I locked my gaze on him. I'd noti
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 5) It's not the time to slack off. The Princess has gone missing, and I can't even find her scent! The Rogues' attack killed the couple I had asked to watch after her. After the attack, the Rogues fled, and now I can't find Princess Harper!"We can't find her scent, your Highness; perhaps she's left the North Snow lands," Miguel stated to me. I clenched my hand and gritted my jaw. This is not a good sign. The Princess has been missing for two days."Then searched for her outside the lands!" I grumbled."But... your father will notice us—""I don't fucking care! Just find her!" I yelled angrily. Miguel stopped speaking and quickly obeyed my orders. I gritted my teeth as I stared at my wine flute. As time went on, my anger toward Dylan grew stronger. I don't care why he does all of this. All I want is to kill him and put an end to his craziness.Just like Miguel said, my father immediately noticed the entry and exit of my men."What have you been up to, Greyson? Som
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 4) I prepared my men to find Rema's princess. It's a covert mission. I didn't tell the Rema Kingdom about the reason behind my actions. I also know that the people of Rema may be skeptical of our actions because they are beginning to despise us as a result of the war between the kingdoms. That is why I need to do this in private.Miguel accompanied me as we strolled through the forest. It was strongly snowing. Miguel and my men have both transformed into wolves. Miguel is older than I am, thus he can already turn into a wolf. I clenched my teeth as I recalled my father's words. Even without my wolf, I know I can do it. But I'm sure it will be difficult for me however, I am confident in my sword skills, but I am also aware that our opponents are stronger, especially in wolf form.Nevertheless, I am still unable to turn into my wolf. I am still unable to awaken it. I just know I'm far too young for it."Is this the right way?" Miguel said over our mind link. I gave
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 3) As the Rema rogues thrashed me with a steel bar, pain radiated throughout my entire body. Their nasty chuckles could be heard. As one of them burned the skin on my back, I screamed in pain. I clenched my teeth and balled my fist in an attempt to bear the pain. When I closed my eyes, an image of a girl went into my head. Those emerald eyes…"Sun meets the ocean... ocean meets the sun... stars scatter across the midnight sky..." that sweet and calming voice. Everything is fresh in my mind now. Those torturous nights were over. Someone saw me after they dropped me somewhere. It was that girl…I rapidly arose from my supine position. As I gazed around, sweat beads dripped down my brow. My heart was pounding in my chest. I was having a nightmare. I gulped hard and realized I was in a nipa hut. When I felt something fall off my body, I looked down. The herbal that covered my body had fallen off. Someone... cleaned me up. Herbs and bandages were used to hide the injur
