After hours of training, I finally called it a day. I bid Princess Riley farewell and headed back to my room, eager to unwind. I quickly took my bath before getting into comfortable clothes. Just as I settled in, a knock came on the door. I smiled as I opened it to find Mia. "Come on in," I said, stepping aside."Are you busy?" I asked, shutting the door behind her.Mia shook her head, her bright smile and sparkling eyes a stark contrast to my fatigue. She settled onto the sofa, and I joined her."How was your training?" she asked, her curiosity evident.My expression faltered, and Mia's gaze turned concerned. Her hands enveloped mine, her touch warm and reassuring."Did something happen?" she asked, softly. Sighing, I hesitated before speaking. "I couldn't open a portal."Mia's brows arched. "Why?"I recounted Princess Riley's words, and realization dawned on Mia's face. "That's sad," she whispered, her eyelids dropping.I forced a smile. "It's fine. I just need to keep trying."Mi
AVERY "Avery!!!!!!" The loud voice piercing through my ear made my eyes snap open. Groggily, I took in my surroundings. I sighed out when I realized I was in the storeroom. I can't believe I slept off in this place even though I had every reason to cause I had been working my ass off since morning and..."Avery!!!!!!" The voice came again and I immediately sprang up. It was the voice of my stepdad which I couldn't ignore. I sprinted out of the room and into the sitting room. There, my stepdad stood with an angry scowl on his face, which made me gulp nervously."Where the fuck were you?" His deep voice sounded as he started walking to me, slapping me hard on the face the moment he got to me. I winced at the pain it brought."Are you deaf?" He questioned. Just then, he shook his head, and to a direction. My brows creased when I saw two burly guys who were standing at the far end of the sitting room."Take her away." My eyes widened in terror as the two men approached me. I took a ste
JAREDI strolled into my office, hands tucked in my pockets. With a sigh, I collapsed down on my swivel chair. Closing my eyes, the image of that girl from earlier flashed through my mind, making me frown. The spark I felt when I saw her - it was ridiculous.She can't be my mate. The moon goddess had to be joking if she thinks I will accept that weak thing who can't even recognize her mate as my own. Just thinking about it made my blood boil.The door swung open and I opened my eyes. My eyes landed on Lisa, my girlfriend who smiled and sauntered over to me. She settled down on my laps. I couldn't help but smile. "You are here.""Hmm. A girl was taken to your room. Who is she?" Lisa asked and I smirked. "Just some stupid bitch whose father gave to me in exchange for his debt.""Whatever, I missed you." With seductive eyes, she began fondling with the button of my shirt."You did, hun?" Chuckling, I grabbed the back of her head before crushing my lips against hers. She kissed me back
AVERY "Bad." Pulling out of the kiss, he commented. "You are really bad at kissing"My eyes remained wide in shock, my lip btting back a retort. How could he steal my first kiss and still say I'm bad at kissing? Did he expect me to be a pro?I resisted the urge to glare at him as he released my chin, his face slowly turning cold."Strip." He said, and my eyes widened again. "Wh – at?" I stuttered."Are your ears not working? I said strip!" He said again, this time louder than the first.I shook my head. "I can't do it."He scoffed. "Do you think you have a choice in this? Wait...don't tell me you have never been touched?" He asked, with raised brows, and I nodded slowly."What?" He snorted and brought his face closer to mine. "So...you mean no one has fucked that little cunt of yours?" Nodding again, I watched as his lips slowly grew into a smirk. "That's nice, but either way, strip." "No. I can't." Moving away from the wall, I rushed to another part of the room. "I won't strip." I
AVERYMy eyes widened in shock. "What?!" I exclaimed."What? Did you think you would become a princess when you came here?" She shot back with sarcasm, but I remained silent, taken aback by her harsh words."If that's what you are thinking, then snap out of it, and get into that bathroom. You only have five minutes." She ordered.I hesitated, biting my lip before taking the uniform from her before and heading into the bathroom.I went under the shower and turned on the faucet. I had a quick bath, after which I picked the uniform from where I kept it. Raising it up, my eyes widened at how short it was. I can't possibly were this.I shook my head, took a new towel, wrapped myself with it before going out of the bathroom."Why are you not dressed yet?!" She demanded the moment she saw me. I felt a wave of fear wash over me as I stuttered out a reply. "I can't wear this. It's too short.""You can't wear it?" She let out a mocking chuckle, her expression darkening instantly. "Do you think
JAREDI watched as she froze in her spot, making me scoff. Did she really think I was going to go let her be? In her dreams.I took a step closer, but she retreated backward, eliciting an annoyed groan from me.I'm really not in the mood for this. I need to fuck someone right now and I will end up forcing myself on her if she keeps on acting this way. I really don't mind."I.." she made to talk but I sped towards her, grabbing her waist and pulling her to myself. Her soft boobs landed softly my chest. My gaze drifted to her lips and I immediately smashed my lips on it.Darn it, for some reason I have no idea of, I've developed a thing for her lips, but the problem is, she's not exactly the best kisser, and she's always so hesitant to open up. But that all changed when I gently bit her lower lip. She gasped, and I took advantage of the moment to slide my tongue in, exploring the corners of her mouth and savoring her sweet taste - like strawberries.I kissed her for two minutes straight
AVERY I left the Alpha King's room and went back to the kitchen, worked for about thirty minutes before deciding to leave for the maids’ quarters, but the court lady told me to clear the plates in the Alpha King's suite. I had completely forgotten about it. I left the kitchen and began heading to the Alpha King's suite and as I walked, my mind went back to the kiss I shared with the Alpha King. To my surprise, I liked it. I liked the way he touched me more. Ahh! I can't believe I almost slept with him if not for the lady that came into the room, but who is she anyway? She seemed angry seeing us in that position. Is she his girlfriend? When I got to Alpha Jared's suite, the guards let me in, and I walked in to meet it empty. "Did he go somewhere?" Mumbling, I walked to the dining table to see that the meals were untouched. He didn't eat. I frowned and packed everything before taking it to the kitchen. I did the dishes, and finally, I could go back to the maids’ quarters. E
AVERY It took some minutes before we finally stopped in front of a suite. The maid opened the door for me, and I walked in while she followed behind. My eyes landed on the Princess Lisa who was sitting on a couch with her legs crossed, she had a glass in her hand which she sipped from. She was the lady from yesterday...so she is the Alpha's girlfriend. No wonder she looked angry when she saw us in that position. She smirked when she saw me. She dropped the glass of wine then stood up, walking to me. "The sl*t is here." She said, taking her hand to my hair. I bit my lip as she grabbed a strand of it, she rolled it on her fingers before drawing on it harshly. "Ouch!" She chuckled, bringing her face closer to mine, her face turning cold. "Who is Alpha Jared to you?" She asked. "What? I don't.. understand." I muttered in confusion. "You don't or you are just pretending?" She asked again, and I sighed. What is she saying? I don't understand a bit of what she is saying. Who is A
