Audrey's POV As I sat on the throne with my legs crossed, I couldn’t help but think that maybe what I was doing was wrong, maybe these people didn’t deserve what I planned to do to them. I was almost beginning to feel sorry for them when I remembered what my life was like back here when I was just a weak female who couldn’t get her wolf. I didn’t feel any good about myself when I was here. ‘No, I shouldn’t feel sorry at all,’ I thought and looked at Kendrick where he was standing. ‘These people didn’t do anything when Kendrick humiliated me. They still ended up making him the Alpha of their pack. Well, I wonder if Kendrick even told them the truth at all.’ I watched the werecouncil members exit the throne room after I let out my growing impatience to get the priest so that I could officially be crowned queen. Jake and Kendrick didn’t leave with them. Well, I had asked Kendrick to stay and get a message from me but as for Jake, I didn’t know why the hell he stayed back. But they
Audrey's POV They seemed very shocked when I announced my plan to them but that wasn’t in any way going to change my mind on what I already planned to do. Kendrick and Jake looked even more shocked than the rest of the men present especially when I said that Kendrick would be my personal servant. Jake even almost gasped which was so, so, funny. When I had said that I wouldn’t totally discard him, what was he thinking? That I would let him work as my right hand man? A very delusional thought, not when I planned to make him pay for his crimes. “Is there a problem?” I asked, looking at all of them and expecting someone to speak. They were supposed to argue and be dramatic, to say that I wasn’t doing the right thing or that I was doing too much. That would have made it even more fun but instead of that, they were even afraid to speak. “There is definitely no problem, My Queen. We are all in agreement with every single part of your plans and will do anything we can to please you,” Ke
Kendrick's POV I was already deeply regretting having told Jenni about the relationship between Audrey and I before she left the pack and how it affected the curse on the pack. Now she was being dramatic and claiming that I was regretting having married her. She had always been a wonderful Luna but this whole situation seemed to be making her act weirdly. I really didn't know what to do with her and her nagging behavior these days. I stopped at a guard post as I walked out of the throne room alone after finally getting Jenni and Jake to let me be. "Guards, I know that I am no more your ruler but still, I'm going to need your help," I told them. "You're still our Alpha even though you are not the ruler of this pack anymore," one of the three guards I met standing there told me. "Don't let the Queen hear you saying that," I joked even though relieved that they thought that way. "We really don't care if she catches us confessing our loyalty to you, we are ready to be killed for t
Kendrick's POV "What are you doing here?" he barked at me. "I'm simply here to see the Queen, isn't it obvious?" I fired back and he suddenly bursted into laughter. Why was he laughing now? Did he think that all this was funny? I had been reduced to a mere member of the pack that I had once been the ruler of the previous day and was even now begging for the attention of the present ruler. "Do you know how pathetic you seem right now?" "What?" I blurted out, fiercely enraged by his words. "You're no more an Alpha now, I can say whatever I want," he boasted and I shook my head wryly. "What exactly is the reason for this?" I asked, trying to keep my voice calm so that I could get him to explain the motive behind his scorning actions. "You keep begging the princess everytime, don't you see that she already has a lot of things planned for you and will execute them regardless of what you say or do?" So that was his reason? Lycans were really a disrespectful bunch of people and that
Kendrick's POV “Very well, My Queen, as you wish,” I breathed out and collected the fan since I had no choice of refusing. I slowly began to fan Audrey and there was silence for some minutes. "Stop!" She shouted after a while and I lowered my arms that were already aching slightly. "Go and get that stool so that I can place my feet on it." That also seemed so stressful after the happenings of today, but it was definitely better than having to fan her so I swiftly moved to fulfill her bidding. Once I got the stool, I placed it close to her and she put her legs on the top of the stool then made me shift it in different directions multiple times before finally finding the position fitting enough for her. "Massage my feet," she requested once I stood up and my eyes widened. "You don't want to do it?" "I..." I stammered, unsure of what to say. I didn't want to do such a demeaning task and even if I wanted to, I didn't even know how. Why was she being so heartless? She definitely
Kendrick's POV Should I go back to get a maid? Ten minutes was all I had, but getting a maid to come with me ought not to take too much time. I decided to get a maid to do the errands and quickly ran back to the palace. "Alpha!" I heard a female voice shout just as I opened the door of the side entrance which I was about to pass through and I immediately halted. All that was left was one more step from either of us and I would have bumped into the maid who was coming out of the palace holding a bucket of wet clothes. "I need your help with something," I blurted out instead of the apology I was supposed to give even though I knew it was impolite. "Me? How can I help you, Alpha?" Another person who still thought me worthy enough to be called Alpha even though I had lost control of my pack. "I need oil, oil that can be used for a foot massage and fruits," I quickly replied. "What type of fruits, Alpha?" She inquired. "Anyone! I just need it as soon as possible," I respon
Kendrick's POV As I cut the fruits that Audrey requested for, I couldn't help but feel grateful to the maids in the palace that did all this work just to please me when I was their ruler. I suddenly felt like servants, not just those in the palace but all servants, deserved to be treated better than they were as they went through so much stress to please their masters. It had only been a few hours since I began working as Audrey's servant and I was already severely exhausted in every way possible. If the Moon goddess ever gave the control of the Blood Moon pack back to me someday, I would initiate a yearly festival to honor servants for their sacrifice. Soon, I was done with the cutting and handed the plates of fruit over to Audrey. She then asked how she was supposed to eat the fruits and that was when I realized that I didn't get a fork so I rushed to get her one only for her to complain that I didn't take permission before leaving when I got back. I was almost tempted to ask i
Jake's POV Audrey's rulership of the Blood Moon pack started like a joke, a very surreal joke but now, days had passed since she began to rule the pack. If it was revenge she was seeking, it was definitely going well for her, but going very uneasily for the pack. Two days ago, she had asked all the pack members to assemble and ended up saying nothing to us except that she just wanted to check if we would answer her. She was not treating the people unfairly but her punishments for even the slightest misdeed would make everyone feel sorry for the offender including the person who reported. She also had a very high bar of what was respectful and so once she felt disrespected in the slightest, punishments would definitely follow. As for Kendrick, that was the worse because she was actually unfair to him and would always punish him publicly. He was now a shadow of himself and the regalness with which he had carried himself right from childhood was gone. It was almost like he would d
