AVERYI had just finished dropping the Alpha's used dishes in the kitchen when I heard my name being called. Turning around, I raised my brows a bit at the sight of Princess Lisa's maid."You called my name." I walked closer to her, and she nodded before speaking up. "Princess Lisa wants you in her room.""Huh, why?" I immediately asked."I have no idea, so go on." She replied and walked out of the kitchen.I didn't move, but kept standing in confusion. What did she want me for? Did I offend her... but I don't remember doing so? Biting my lower lip, my legs finally moved and I began walking to her suite. The walk lasted for about two minutes before I finally got to her suite."Come in." Her voice sounded after I knocked on the door. I took a deep breath before going in. My eyes landed on her figure beside the window, but she turned immediately and a smirk appeared on her lips when she saw me."You called for me." I muttered with my gaze on the floor."I did." She slowly walked to me.
The next morning, I couldn't escape Lady Margaret's scolding. I can still recall her yells and Mabel's snickering as I headed to the Alpha Jared's suite with his breakfast."You can go in." The guard said after announcing my presence to the Alpha. I walked in but stopped in my tracks when I saw Princess Lisa there, sitting with her legs crossed."And why are you standing there without doing nothing?" Her irritated voice sounded, and I bowed slightly before going to the dining table. I arranged the meals on it and began tasting them, and all through, I could feel her cold eyes on me.Just as I was done tasting the meal, the room door opened and Alpha Jared showed up."Good morning, Alpha." He ignored me, and turned to Princess Lisa who stood and kissed him right there.I gulped nothing as I stared at them. Somehow, watching them kiss made me feel as if something heavy was placed in my chest. The worst part was that Princess Lisa was touching him all over."I..." They seemed like they w
AVERYI opened my eyes to the bright sun emitting from the window. A soft sigh escaped my lips as I looked around. My eyes widened when I realized where I was, and I sprang up, looking around to be sure I was not seeing things. I was in the Alpha Jared's room!My mind went to what happened yesterday, how I was running from that creepy guard, then I suddenly felt dizzy and I almost fell biy someone caught me then...the sweet scent. What was that about?"What are you doing here?" My thoughts were cut short when Princess Lisa walked into the room, a frown speedily appearing on her face when she saw me."Er– I don't know.""What do you mean you don't know? Are you playing with me?!" She asked with a glare."I– " "What's going on?" We both turned to the door where Alpha Jared stood with a questioning look on his face."I should be the one asking you that. What's she doing here?!" Princess Lisa hollered."Watch the way you talk to me, Lisa." Alpha Jared said going to the cellar."Seriously
AVERY"Ahh." I sighed out as Alpha Jared pulled out from me. He left the bed while I kept laying there with my eyes closed. Throughout the sex, I felt like he was angry, but I couldn't point it out, though he made mention of me sleeping with someone else. Since he was the one who picked me yesterday, I guess he thinks that way because of how I looked yesterday. Sigh. What can I say?Before he would say something, I stood up from the bed, picked up my clothes which were on the floor, and put it on before turning to him. His pants was back on. "Take the food away." His crisp voice came and I nodded before making my way out of the room. I went to the dining and did what he said. I took the food to the kitchen."Why didn't he eat the food?" Mabel's voice came as I dropped the food."You can have it if you want." I replied simply and walked past her."Bitch." I could hear her say as I walked to the door."You did well." Mia showed up, and I furrowed brows in confusion. She motioned to M
"Accept my rejection, Avery."I took my gaze to him, looking straight into his dark eyes for the first time, and responded to his request, "I, Avery Kyra Beckham refuse to accept your rejection.""What? You bitch!" The door burst open and Princess Lisa stormed in with a big scowl on her face."You refuse his rejection? Are you crazy?!" She yelled. "Who do you think you are? You are nothing but a slave. A damn slave." "Lisa...""No, Jared. Let me put this bitch in her place." Princess Lisa cut Alpha Jared off and moved closer to me.She scoffed. "You think of being his mate? Dream on, cause it's never happening.""Lisa, leave?" Alpha Jared spoke up."What?" She faced him with a frown on her face."Now." Alpha Jared ordered. Seeing that he was serious, she bowed and walked out of the suite.'Do you think he is angry?' Kyra asked.'I don't know.' I replied and looked at Alpha Jared who was staring at me without saying anything.It went on for minutes, which gave me chills. His face was
AVERYLike Princess Lisa said, my life truly became miserable. It was already four days after my meeting with her, but my life was worse than it was ever. I was assigned unreasonable and unnecessary chores, and whenever I completed them, the other maids would complain and get angry at me. It felt like my works were being destroyed as I did them."Hey, go and change the tissue paper rolls in all the rooms." Just like the last few days, I was asked to do a job that was simply out of my supposed chores. I made my way to the supply room, picked four of the tissue paper packs which were stashed on the shelf. I walked to the door and opened it with difficulty because of the stack of tissue paper packs. Walking was also difficult, I found it hard to see. I was grateful I didn't stumble or fall until I got to the first room.I opened the door and walked in with the stack. I took one of the pack and peeled it open before taking one of the tissue rolls. I walked into the bathroom and changed i
1JAREDWhen I picked the glass from the floor, and started bringing it towards Avery's hand, I never meant to really hurt her with it, but then, her tears flowed before it even got close to her. I swallowed, but covered it with a smirk before dropping the glass. I went to the center table to take the document I came for, then I walked out of the suite without saying a word.I stopped to glare at Garvey who bowed immediately."I'm sorry, sir."I rolled my eyes and walked out of the building. "Jared!" On my way to my office, I head someone call my name. I looked ahead to see my sister, Riley. She ran towards me and pulled me to a hug."Big bro." She mumbled as I hugged her back.We remained like that for few seconds before I pulled out. "What are you doing here?""What do you mean? This is my pack." She glared at me and I chuckled. Riley always had the knack for traveling, so since she clocked eighteen, she left the pack to follow her dreams. Touring the human world in different count
AVERY"I don't think I need a mate though, especially not a weak one." Alpha Jared said, maintaining eye contact with me. I chalked down nothing as my breath became shaky. His piercing gaze never left mine. Instead, it pierced deeper into me. "Are you okay?" I took my gaze away from him to Princess Riley, who was staring at me with a smile on her face."I'm good." I forced out, and she nodded, concentrating on her food. I took my gaze back to Alpha Jared, but he was no longer staring at me. I didn't look away still. His cold eyes as he said those words reappearing in my mind.Did he hate me this much to deny having a mate? What did I even expect? He already tried rejecting me, so he surely didn't want to have anything to do with me. Should I just accept his rejection?'No, we can't.' Kyra's sharp voice made me close my eyes.'We can't keep hurting like this, Kyra.' 'We just have to make him love us,' she replied and I shut her out. I didn't want to hear it anymore.Their dinner wen
