Nicholas I was in utter disbelief at first but after hearing it myself from the guards, I had no other choice but to believe it."So to wrap up everything you just said, Lydia is responsible for stabbing Lucas, she's responsible for puncturing Gio's left eye, and to make things even more interesting, she put Alora, of all people, in a coma?" I asked, and the more the words came out of my mouth, the more unbelievable it sounded.It was very difficult for me to believe that a person like Lydia, who seemed like an absolute weakling that couldn't even lift a finger to defend herself, was capable of putting three guards that were much stronger than her, in such critical conditions. The doctors already said that there was nothing to be done about Gio's left eye, which means he was going to be blind in that eye for the rest of his life. The doctors also said that Alora's condition was unstable because she had bled too much from her neck and they could only hope that she was strong enough t
Third Person Pov “Are you sure you're allowed to leave the hospital so soon?” Martha asked, still not in agreement with Lydia's decision to leave the hospital so soon. She couldn't understand what the rush was about because Lydia was only just recovering, and she would have preferred that she stayed for as long as she could so that she could at least avoid the alpha for a few more days. “I already spoke to the doctor, and he said that I'm perfectly fine and that I could leave whenever I wanted. You already know that I don't really enjoy staying in hospitals for too long. If what you're worried about is that I'm not going to get enough rest, then don't worry too much Martha, I'll be fine,” Lydia responded. She knew what Martha was worried about wasn't about her getting enough rest, but she wasn't going to allow herself to be convinced to stay in the hospital just to avoid seeing someone that she was eventually going to see whether she liked it or not. Besides, she certainly wanted
Nicholas I froze. My heart, my mind, my head, my entire being frozen in shock at Lydia's audacity. When her lips crashed on mine, I couldn't think of anything for the first few seconds because of how shocking it was. And, I would have pushed her away, but almost as if she knew what was coming, she only planted her lips on mine for a few seconds before stepping back. The look on her face said it all. She was amused and excited, and that made me even more pissed off. She knew perfectly well that I would have never done that with her or allowed her to touch me like that, and yet, she went ahead without caring about the consequences. “Did you lose your mind, lady? Has spending time in the hospital finally made you forget your place?” I asked, trying to contain my rage as best as I could. “And what exactly is my place? Last I remember, I was supposed to be your chef but unfortunately, I ended up becoming your prisoner. Besides these two positions, there is also another place I hold b
Lydia “I know you didn't ask, but just so you know, I don't have a family, I'm not a criminal, and I am definitely not after your life, Alpha. Please put that in mind,” I stated confidently as soon as the Alpha and I arrived back in the palace. He had been kind enough to allow me to get into his car and he drove me all the way here, but he didn't say anything to me in the car. He had always given me the cold treatment, but after telling him what I had to do to defeat his men, he not only gave me the cold treatment, but he didn't say anything to me at all, and I could feel a different kind of anger radiating from him on our way here. I honestly didn't understand why he was so upset when he was the one who made me think that far in the first place, but I decided not to allow his anger to get to me since I already did what had to be done and there was no use in regretting it. Besides, I doubt that the men would even remember what I looked like naked and even if they did, I'm pretty
Lydia Little girl? Did this girl just call me a little girl? I wondered internally, trying as much as I could to keep a straight face, even though I knew that these girls were about to get on my nerves. “I'm assuming that you're both my roommates, so allow me to introduce myself properly. My name's Lydia Evans and I work here as the Alpha's newest chef. It doesn't seem to me like you're interested in making new friends, so I'm not going to ask us to get along. Let's just try as much as we can not to offend each other and I think things would be able to run smoothly if we can keep to that,” I said, speaking as calmly and as maturely as I could. The last thing I wanted was to get into a fight with either one of these girls on my first day here because I need to make sure that I don't give the alpha any excuse to throw me into prison again. I also don't think that I'm in the mental state to keep calm, so I had to control myself and avoid getting upset with them because I'm not sure
Nicholas “I can assure you, Liam, that girl is not a normal person, and I'm confident that there's an ulterior motive that she has,” I confidently said to Liam, who for some reason is so confident that Lydia was a good person and that she was harmless. I certainly couldn't understand his reasons for trusting her so blindly, even if there were so many things that just didn't make sense about her. “At this point, if I'm being honest with you Nicholas, you're starting to sound almost obsessed with her and the sooner you realize that you can't convince me that she's a bad person, the better it's going to be for both of us,” he responded, and I couldn't believe him. “You're not even trying to think things through, Liam. That girl is not as innocent and as timid as she's trying to portray herself to be and you, as the idiot that you are, are refusing to see her for what she is. She's a snake and I can bet on everything, but there's something fishy going on with her,” I retorted. The o
Lydia I was trying very hard to maintain my cool and keep myself out of trouble, but it was getting very difficult to deal with the constant harassment from these women. I still couldn't believe those women who were older than me, and we're supposed to be mature and sensible are so busy being the opposite of what I expected of them. It turned out that my roommates were right about the older workers being obsessed with hierarchy, and I can't even begin to explain how insistent they've been about wanting me to show them respect. Normally, I would have just given them what they wanted and showed them the respect they were craving so eagerly, but for some reason, I couldn't even fake the respect because of how obnoxious and disgusting their attitude was. I ended up finding out that my roommates, Emily and Tanya, weren't even the worst of them all. In fact, it turned out that the biggest of the ridiculous bullies was about Martha's age, and just like Martha was the head chef for th
Third-Person Pov “Breath in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out,” Lydia muttered under her breath as she waited for the guards to allow her into the space of the palace that belonged to the Alpha. Normally, the alpha doesn't just allow anyone to come into his space, since he was very particular about the servants never crossing their boundaries. But for some reason, Lydia was specifically informed to serve the alpha his meal personally, so now, she had no other choice but to go along with his instructions and meet him. She would be lying to herself if she said she wasn't nervous because the last time they spoke, she had done something completely unreasonable, and she was afraid that there was a chance that he was calling her to him because he had something planned for her. Another reason she was nervous was because, this was the first time she cooked for him since she arrived and the fact that she had to be there with him while he was tasting her meal, made her all the more ner
