Joan's POV

"Wipe it clean, you lazy bunch!" Ms Emma screams in my face.

I couldn't tell which was more annoying, her screaming so loud or the fact that she spits a lot while at it?

My job was to clean the Alpha's room and make sure his things were in place but this woman made it her business to watch me do the cleaning.

Shouldn't she be supervising the other maids? Why is she all up in my business anyway?

"No peck of dust on the ground, do you hear me? Not a single speck of dust! " She said for the hundredth time that evening!

She was starting to annoy me. It took a great time convincing Maya to stay put and not wolf out. She's been staring all day, waiting for a chance to snap at Ms Emma's face and scar her for life!

If you do that, we're going to draw attention to ourselves. We could be forced to hold metal plates

Which would burn into my skin and never heal…

Maya agreed to stay put and I made sure I kept my anger at bay as well. Any signs of trigger and May

    Joan's POV I sat there, holding his towel and my back to the bathroom as the sound of sponge scratching hard against skin filled my ears.It was hard to ignore what I had just seen and to have witnessed something do gore and disgusting….I was set to lose my mind, certainly,my sleep as well.My eyes got a glimpse of the bloody clothes in the corner, staining the floor I had spent so much time cleaning."Towel" I handed him his towel, my back still in the bathroom. Alpha Jerome was out of the bathroom soon, looking clean and …..dare I say, innocent."That was a boar's blood" je muttered, walking towards his closet with the towel wrapped around his waist.I turned my back to him , giving him the privacy he deserved. I might be his personal maid but that doesn't give me the right to stare at his body like some fucking pervert."I went hunting in the woods with my beta and to my shock, my arrow was blunt.

    Joan's POV I stared down at the white cloth belt I had tied around my waist, over my shapeless gown.Something kicked in my head, anger maybe, when I realised what made the Alpha stare at me that way last night.I was not only angry but irritated by his actions! Staring at me like some pervert.Despite my hatred for Alpha Rex and his father,I would rather have Rex staring at me that way rather than Alpha Jerome.How could he…My thoughts were cut short when I felt someone tug at my hair from behind, pulling me to the ground. Who…I glared up at her, swearing to curse her out if it was Ms Emma. I would rather have anyone do anything but getting handsy with my hair is certainly out of the question!To my shock, it wasn't Ms Emma but a lady cladded in the most expensive attire that hugged her curves. She was both elegant and graceful and her skin shone, spotless and beautiful to behold.A woman built to pleasure a man both physically in appearance and…the other areas I

    Joan's POV A knock on the door made me drop my mother's anklet. The Alpha is not supposed to be back by this time or did the meeting end earlier than planned? I heard the council had called for Alpha Jerome from one of the maids and they feared that would spell doom for the Alpha.I wasn't sure what the real problem was but I could tell it wasn't anything good.I arranged the jewellery back in place, picking one of my mothers crystal necklace in the the band of my waist belt as the knock persisted. I hurried towards the door, wiping the entrance clean before pulling the bolt away from the door."I'm really sorry Alpha, i wanted to get the bucket out of the way" i offered immediately he stepped in.He waves me off, obviously concerned about something else. I was glad he didn't hit my face or squeeze my neck in anger but I was more curious as to why he seemed so distant.I returned to my chores, making sure to avoid any more of him for the day.Finally done with the cleaning, I pic

    Joan's POV Maybe I should have kept the 'beast' in check because now I was face to face with the Alpha and Lady Gina as well as my accuser Ms Emma, was standing right behind me ."My lord,this filthy maid has been not only disrespectful but last and insolent! I gave her chores and she has refused to do them! She called me names and even tried to hit me Alpha !" I shut my eyes, keeping my anger well bottled in and in check. Of course she would try to play victim and get the Alpha to punish me severely! My eyes lands on lady Gina, would me trying to seem innocent save me at this point.I flashed her a small smile and returned my gaze to the feet of the Alpha."Why is this any of my business Emma? Do I appear as someone who cares about such stupid matters?!" "Alpha, she's your personal maid. I wanted to ask your for your day on this before doing anything Alpha" The silence that followed was uncomfortable and I could feel the Alpha's gaze on me."Maid" "Yes Alpha

    Alpha Jerome's POV To think she would think that her opinion mattered to me was nothing short of infuriating! No one dared to question or challenge my authority, not even Gina and I made that clear a dozen times! I heard a whimper from her, rewarded with a deadly glare that shuts her up.One glance around the room and I felt disgusted."Get out" I ordered.The very sight of her was disgusting and irritating. I wanted her out of sight and immediately too…"My father asked to see you" she said as she made her way out of my room, fully dressed moments later."Tell him I am not seeing anyone at the moment" "I believe this has to do with the recent attacks on the border" "What part of my words don't you understand?!" I yelled at her. She takes a few steps backwards but not fast enough before I took hold of a handful of black luscious hair."I am not meeting anyone now. " I repeated,breathing down her neck..Her eyes stared into mine, not a hint of fear was in there."

    Exhaustion weighed heavily on me the next day, my body aching and bruises stinging even more than before. As the morning light spilled into my room, my weariness tried to pull me back into the embrace of my bed. But before I could find solace, Ms. Emma barged into my room, her face twisted with anger."Why are you still in bed, you lazy fool?" she screamed, her words like knives in my ears. Without warning, she grabbed a fistful of my hair and yanked me up, forcefully reminding me of my duties. "Get to work!" she spat, her grip tightening, and I stumbled out of the room, pain radiating through my scalp.Joining the other maids, I tried to blend in as we went about our cleaning tasks. But it seemed that none of them wanted to be associated with me. They avoided me, casting glances laced with judgement, as if my mere presence tainted their own reputation.Silently, I swept and cleaned, the monotonous routine a bittersweet distraction from the persistent ache in my body and the heavines

    Alpha Rex's POV Restless and anxious, I sat in my study room, waiting for any news about Joan. She had left the pack, and I couldn't help but blame myself for letting her go. The realization that she was my mate hit me like a ton of bricks, and I felt a heavy weight of regret settle in my chest. How could I have treated her so poorly? The thought of it made me feel both horrible and disgusted with myself.Just as I was lost in my spiral of self-reflection, the door swung open, and Tyler, my loyal beta, entered the room. I looked up at him expectantly, hoping he had some information about Joan's whereabouts."Tyler, what have you found?" I asked eagerly, desperately wanting some glimmer of hope.His expression shifted, and I could tell by the look on his face that he hadn't found Joan yet. A pang of disappointment and worry shot through me. "Please tell me you have some leads," I pleaded, my voice filled with hope and desperation.Tyler sighed and shook his head. "I

    Joan's POV I continued with my daily routine, sweeping and cleaning alongside the other maids. The bruises on my skin were still as horrible as before, causing a constant ache. I couldn't help but wonder if the ointment Lady Gina had given me was making them better or worse. The pain persisted, but I held on to the hope that it would eventually fade away.As I worked, my mind drifted to the cruel and wicked nature of life. It felt like the world had dealt me nothing but hardship. I questioned why I had been subjected to such suffering and what I had done to deserve it. But alas, there were no answers, only the harsh reality I had come to accept.In the midst of my thoughts, a guard approached, breaking my train of thinking. My heart raced with fear as he directed me to come with him. I couldn't imagine what the Alpha would want with me. "W-Why should I go with you?" I stammered, my voice trembling, hoping for some explanation.The guard's expression seemed stern as
