Caught by my enemy

/Selene’s POV/

“What the hell will I do??” I muttered and jumped up only to hold my head and groan because of the migraine forming but being careful enough not to wake him up, I would’ve loved to see the fine specimen I slept with, but there was no time.

I knew I would regret it if I didn’t take a look at him, so I glanced at him and I could see his extremely tall figure probably around 6’6 ft. He is extremely muscular to the point that I could see his muscles popping out even as he was snoring lightly. He is extremely tan and his dark hair is tousled messily due to the fact that he is on the bed, I snapped out of it before I got carried away.

I picked up my clothes on the floor and saw stacks of cash, so I grabbed one knowing fully well that it would come in handy later. I got out of the penthouse and tried finding my way back to my pack, luckily, I saw a cab coming towards me so I hailed it down.

“To the Hyacinth Estate,” I muttered and he sped off immediately, to humans the estate is like an orphanage home, or a gated place that’s inhabited by long chains of family, which makes it easier for us to blend in the community.

“We’re here ma’am.” He mentioned making me give him two hundred dollars which earned me thousands of thank you from him, I know deep down he thinks I’m a stripper or worse prostitute, but at this point, I don’t care……all I want to do is sneak inside successfully and be on my bed.

“Well, if you want to sneak inside successfully, move and stop standing on the road like a lost idiot.” Athena my wolf grunted out making my legs move on their own, because for my wolf to intervene it’s serious.

I’m awed at the fact that Athena spoke to me today, it might be because of the stranger we slept with. Since I was sixteen, the age that every werewolf got their wolf and shift, I met Athena and she told me she’s my wolf and I can always talk to her. Athena doesn’t really speak much, but we spoke frequently till that faithful day I lost my wolf…………..the day I got rejected by my mate. She’s been mute since then, that’s why I’m so shocked when I heard her voice today.

“Holy f**k.” I groaned when my back made contact with the cemented floor, I tiptoed to the mansion and was very stealthy so I didn’t make any sound that would invite the pack patrol.

“Thank God,” I muttered after closing the pack’s house, I rested my forehead on it to catch my breath…..that was a narrow escape.

“Where the hell are you coming from? Whoops you look like one of those street hookers.” My worse nightmare complimented.

“Oops,” I whispered knowing fully well that I’ll have my ears full with Veronica’s high-pitched voice.

“Like I said, where the hell are you coming from?” She questioned again while putting one of her hands on her waist as an act of intimidation.

The action made me look at her dress well, I had to restrict myself from laughing at her ridiculous ebony dress….Veronica’s dress will never cease to amaze me. Did she think those sequins were doing her rolls of fat any favours? She looked like a stack of tyres that someone sprayed in glitters.

“I went to pick up the groceries.” I lied and pinched myself after splattering a whole nonsense and unbelievable lie.

“In a short dress?? by this time of the day??? Well then, where are the groceries you went to pick up?” She countered making me groan internally, among everyone in this house, why must it be her…..I thought luck was on my side.

“I’m sorry, please can you let me go.” I apologized and she started laughing……

“What the hell is funny?? Did she inhale laughing gas somewhere?” I questioned myself because I couldn’t find anything funny in my sentence, so what went wrong?

“Oh! So you can beg?? Wow, that’s amusing, the great and sarcastic Selene is begging.” She held her stomach and was bubbling in laughter.

Thank God for my smart mouth, it’s saving me from a lot of unforeseen circumstances but it puts me in trouble greater than it saves me. I stood there and was waiting for her final decision, knowing it would come with a catch.

“Well, you have to do my laundry and clean my room for the whole week……….make sure you don’t snoop around my stuff.” She proposed and I sighed in relief knowing she could’ve given me a worse condition.

“Okay settled, please just don’t tell anybody.” I pleaded and she rolled her eyes and walked out.

Whoops, that was close….I can’t imagine meeting Atlas instead of Veronica because my life will be hell in next week if he had caught me…….the combination of beating and raping doesn’t sound enticing to me at all …I’m not a fan of BDSM.

Luckily I got to my room without encountering anybody, I went to the bathroom straight knowing that Atlas might summon for me or worse barge into my room to have his way with him, and he wouldn’t be pleased to inhale my scent reeking of sex and another man’s scent.

I did not feel like washing the guy’s scent off me because it was cooling my spirit and I was feeling giddy while inhaling his pine and woodsy scent, but it has to be done because Atlas recognizes almost all the pack’s member scent, and it will definitely arouse suspicion so I had to wash it off.

I bounced on my bed and started reminiscing what happened last night, and the flashbacks hit me so hard that I had to hold my head. From the bartender flirting with me to the guy trying to force himself on me till my saviour came……

“Hmmmmm” I groaned remembering that I didn’t catch his name, I tried racking my brain to remember but I couldn’t instead I started getting images of our tangled bodies last night, making me blush profusely.

I halted my train of imagination from moving when I heard footsteps approaching my room, I waited to see if I could perceive his/her scent but couldn’t place the face.

“Bitch !!!! Won’t you get your butt up and start working? Or you’ll not do the chores today because you went out??? If I reach the Kitchen before you do…I’ll tell the Alpha.” Veronica threatens and I start to wonder if this lady is obsessed with me, or infatuated because she doesn’t get tired of seeing me.

“I’m coming.” I yelled before she could enter my room, not that I’m hiding anything but I wanted to prepare myself before she’d show me her taunting face.

“What are you waiting for? Do you need me to tell you what to do again? Start cleaning omega.” She instructed knowing I would be infuriated but I paid her no mind.

I started by sweeping the floors, using long, purposeful strokes to gather up dirt and debris left by the pack members and the pups. Next, I moved on to dusting the furniture, carefully wiping down each surface until it gleams knowing if I don’t do it well, Veronica or maybe the Luna will talk…. She’s a very clean woman and always prefers spotless work. I take extra care with fragile items like porcelains and ceramics while noting that if it breaks I’ll be broken, using a soft cloth to remove any dust or grime. As I work, I hum a tune under my breath, lost in the rhythm of the task at hand. Finally, I move on to the kitchen, scrubbing the sink and wiping down the countertops, at a point I got tired after seeing the stacks of dirty plates hidden in the nooks and crannies of the kitchen. I take pride in my work, knowing that a clean home is a happy home even if that’s far from me, but I love making the kids comfortable because they are the only one who treats me well apart from the ones that have been fed with dirty information by their parents.

“Wow, you cleaned up so well, afraid of being told about sneaking out to the Alpha?” Veronica’s irritating voice interrupted making the remember that I have companions after getting lost in my own little world.

“Well, thank you so much for the beautiful compliment.” I smiled sweetly while ignoring her last statement making her scowl at me.

“Wow, who cleaned this house like this? This is spotless and good.” The Luna interrupted making me raise one of my eyebrows because she doesn’t really compliment people, but it seems she’s in a good mood.

“The omega, Selene did it.” Veronica answered and I just rolled my eye, at least she didn’t take the credit for herself.

“Well, you’ve done well today, so you can take the rest of the day off after washing the dishes.” She commanded making me do a happy dance mentally, knowing even Atlas cannot break her command.

“Thank you Luna” I appreciated with a very small voice that I don’t possess making Veronica squint her eyes.

I washed the dishes and endured Veronica’s endless insults, paying her no attention because in two minutes I’ll be on my bed laying down till tomorrow.

“Ooops, looks like I’m done here for today…. My services are no longer needed, Dear Veronica have a good night rest.” I blew her a kiss knowing it would infuriate her and I wasn’t wrong because the next thing a heard was a guttural growl.
