Anger

…Elena pov…

I woke up early this morning, feeling a mix of anger and determination as I prepared for my first day back at work as a maid for Rowland. 

He is an alpha, and a powerful one at that. And unfortunately, I am also his mate. But that does not prevent me from fulfilling my objective, getting my revenge both for myself and for the mother of this body, Freya. I have returned to this job with one goal in mind: to have my revenge.

I am having a hard time adapting to this new body. Freya, the former owner of this body, has sexy curves that drew the attention of men and the tight clothing I wore made them very obvious. 

I faced the mirror looking at my new face as I dressed my hair. I was accustomed to my long dark hair that I allowed to fall across my shoulders. I combed my brand of hair slowly and dressed it to the side. Perfect, I think it's better like this.  

I slipped into a blue gown that stopped at my thighs. My dressing is simple.

I added a very light makeup and stepped out of my new apartment. Freya 's mother's friend had got this place for me.

I flagged down a taxi and hopped in. Sitting at the back seat began to plan my next move.

 I have already made the first step to get to be close to him to carry out any further plan. I couldn't come up with any way to make him suffer and get my revenge. I wanted to make him suffer slowly, that would be best I decided. 

I think it's best I get to know more of him, he must have weaknesses, I muttered.

Talking about weaknesses, I am his mate. When I saw him the previous day, I denied feeling a pain in my chest when he asked me. The wolf in me felt the bond.

The night of my death flashed in my mind. His guards holding me, his smile as he thrust his sword into my heart. But at that moment that I was on my last breath his expression suddenly changed, he became pale like he had done something wrong. 

That night I didn't think about it at all because of course I was almost dead already. But now thinking about it, is it possible that he realized I was his mate at that moment? 

The taxi pulled up at the mansion as I paid him off and walked into the entrance. The head maid saw me as I walked in and called me.

Hello Miss

Good morning ma'am I bowed.

Good morning Miss…

Miss Freya I smiled at her.

Miss Freya, your uniform is ready, come with me, she said as she smiled.

Okay, I followed her as she led me to a young lady wearing the maid uniform who gave me clothes that were arranged beautifully into a white nylon.

That is the dressing room she said pointing to a door with a tag, 'dressing room'.

I stepped into the dressing room and unwrapped my uniform. It was a blue and white checked gown with a black bow tie. I quickly undressed and slipped into the uniform. It was a little bit tight and stopped at my knees. I looked into the mirror and saw that the dress didn't conceal my curves but showed my figure eight shape showed shape. 

I twirled in the mirror before stepping out to the incredulous gaze of the head maid, the jaw of the maid who had handed me my uniform dropped for a moment. 

Splendid, befitting of an alpha maid, the head maid said smiling at me as the maid who handed me my uniform eyed me before stepping forward to place a tag on my uniform. On the tag was written 'maid'.

The maid led me to a door and knocked.

The invoice came from inside. That was Alpha Rowland's voice. The head maid who I learnt to be Mrs Fletcher opened the door and stepped in and I followed her.

As I walked in, the familiar smell of the house hit me. It was a mix of expensive cologne and the scent of Rowland, which always made my blood boil. I couldn't help but feel a twinge of hatred that I masked with a smile.

The room was large and well-appointed, with a desk in the center and several comfortable looking chairs arranged around it. This was the room I was taken to when I was bought as a slave. I stared at the spot where new tire my dress and raped me.

 Alpha Rowland, a tall, imposing figure, stood up and sat on his chair. I couldn't ignore it. He was handsome with a cute smile. 

This is the new maid sir, she said.

Oh, you can leave now, he said. 

"Welcome, Freya," he said, with a warm smile as the head maid left. He looked at me from head to toe. He absentmindedly shifted his gaze to my curves. 

Good morning sir, I bowed, shaking him out from his absent minded gaze. "Was he checking me out?", I muttered, hiding my chuckle.

The uniform is very nice, nice on you, he said gulping.

"Have the head maid told you your duties as my maid? " he asked.

"No".

Ok then I will tell you then he said standing up from his chair.

Why does he act nice, I thought as I forced a smile. start. "Thank you," I replied. "I'm looking forward to working here."

"Let me give you a tour of the office," he said. "And I'll explain your duties and responsibilities."

I nodded, and followed him as he showed me around the office. He was friendly and patient, taking the time to answer all of my questions. As we walked, I couldn't help but notice how immaculately clean and organized everything was.

"As a maid, it will be your responsibility to keep the office looking like this," The Alpha said. "You will be in charge of cleaning the common areas, stocking supplies, and making sure that everything is running smoothly."

I nodded, understanding the importance of my role. "I'll do my best," I said.

The Alpha smiled. "I have no doubt that you will. And if you have any questions or troubles, don't hesitate to approach me. 

I scoffed at his words in my subconscious mind.

Ok sir.

Go to the kitchen and get me a cup of coffee, go down the corridor and ask for the kitchen he said. As I turned I could feel his eyes transfixed on my body.

 As I opened the door,I almost bumped into a woman. It was the woman that was holding Alpha Rowland's waist yesterday. 

Watch where you are going, you punk, she said.

"You..", She fired me an evil stare as she checked me out from head to toe. Her eyebrows furrowed as her gaze landed in my face again.

"You're the new maid, aren't you?" she said, her voice cold.

"Yes, I am," I replied, trying to keep my tone neutral.

"I see," she said, her gaze sweeping over me. "You're quite beautiful, aren't you?"

Thank you for your compliment, I said smiling.  

"Of course," she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "But beauty is a powerful tool, and one that should not be underestimated."

"I'm just here to do my job," I said.

you better focus on that and don't mess around she said, eyeing my uniform.

I didn't know what to say, so I just stood there slightly bowed, feigning the respect I didn't feel for her. What was she Alpha Rowland mistress I scoffed at?

"Well, I'll be going now," I said, trying to end the conversation.

"Yes, you should," she said, her voice icy. "And watch your back, Fre… Fre… what. 

"Freya", I completed it.

Not everyone here is as friendly as they seem."

With that, she stamped angrily into the office.

I made my way to the end of the corridor and asked where the kitchen was. 

Entering the very wide kitchen furnished and arranged in a grandiose style there was a little gathering near the doorway. Curious, I approach and see that a group of other maids are gathered there, chattering excitedly.

I said a few words of greeting and I quickly made my way through the crowd and into the kitchen. I grab a clean mug from the cupboard and set it on the counter. 

I measure out the coffee beans and grind them using the electric grinder. The aroma of freshly ground coffee fills the kitchen and makes my mouth water.

I add water to the coffee maker and turn it on. As I waited for the coffee to brew, a young lady in the maid's uniform walked up to me, her hair was red colored and she made it a habit to catwalk.

Hey you newbie she began.

I turned to her although annoyed at her approach I beamed a smile.

I hear you are the Alpha's maid. She placed a hand on her hips as she ran her eyes all over me.

Yes I do, I said , glancing at the brewing coffee. The chattering maid's now stopped and stared at us.

Don't give me all that pretend-to- be-good-to-get-him attitude she scoffed at.

Whatever I waved my hands.

What did you say just now she raised her eyebrows.

At this moment the head maid entered. "What is going on?", she questioned as everyone made to disperse. Oh I am yet to introduce our newbie, everyone welcome Freya, she came to my side. Freya said hi to them and she beamed a smile at me.

"Hi, it's nice to be with you all," I said.

Welcome Freya they say.

Freya I hope to see you another time, she grinned.

Yeah I said turning the coffee, finally, the coffee is ready and I pour it into the mug. After the head maid introduced me, the maid got busy after the head maid had scolded them for chatting while doing work.

I add a dash of cream and a spoonful of sugar, just the way the alpha likes it.

I take a deep breath, the aroma of the coffee is invigorating and I feel ready to face the day. Carrying the mug carefully, I head out of the kitchen towards the alpha's office. My mind set on making a good impression on him, gaining would be easy. 

Knocking at the door and stepping bin after hearing Alpha Rowland Voice telling me to come in. I stepped into the office, the woman I saw earlier was sitting on his Alpha Rowland's lap and her hands ran all over him.

She tilted her head as she rubbed his jaw, throwing an evil stare at me.

"Why did you take time?". She asked me.

I…

"She was probably getting acquainted with other maid's", Rowland said, interrupting me. Place the coffee on the table, he said.

Her expression suddenly darkened as she turned to face him. Rowland I think you should get a different maid.

Why don't we get something to eat? Go get us breakfast Freya Rowland said. 

"Rowland?" She turned his face to look at her. "The maid" .

"What's wrong with her?", he asked.

I don't feel comfortable with her.

You will now get off my lap. It's embarrassing.

"Why? Because of a maid?" . She emphasized the word 'maid'.

What will I get for breakfast? I was impatient as they left me standing.

Oh, bacon and eggs will do, he said and I step out leaving them to their chatter.

Bringing in the dishes, his mistress took them from me and placed them in front of him as she fed him.

You can step out now, she said.

"Oh right", I said. 'What is he a baby?' I scoffed.

After breakfast, I cleaned up the dishes and started on the rest of my duties for the day. I tidied up the living room, dusted the furniture, and vacuumed the carpets. As I worked. 

Suddenly I saw a shadow fall over me. Turning back it was Alpha Rowland.
