I stared at him like he had grown a second head.Maybe he has.“Mate,” he repeated, more surely this time.I frowned and my hands fell on my sides. I tried to feel it.Yes, there was a stir somewhere deep inside me but nothing else.I'd heard tales of how mates felt when they found each other but I felt almost nothing.Was this a joke?I wanted to laugh in his face but the look he gave me made even me hold my tongue.Different emotions crossed his eyes at once from anger to sadness to pain and was that….regret?“No,” I said inwardly.This was the last thing I needed.I didn't need a mate.Not now.And especially not one that was looking at me like he wanted to rain fire and brimstone over my head.“Mate,” he said and this time, every emotion in his voice and eyes were replaced with just two.Hate and disgust.Right at that moment, I knew it.I didn't need to be told.I knew what was running through his mind.It was as clear as day.“I….”That was my cue.I cut him off and beat him to

I looked around the hallway and tried to walk normally.I mean as normal as one who has a plan under their sleeves would walk.Cautiously, I took another step forward and I felt giddy inside as I saw the bright blue sky, something I hadn't seen in the three days I've been here.I crossed the threshold of the large doors and the crisp smell of air wafted through my nostrils, causing me to inhale deeply and filling me with warmth.A small smile spread across my cheeks and I wished I had more time to bask in the warmth of the sun but I knew I had limited time.I stepped on the grass and barely another step later, the world flipped to the side and my body collided with the ground with a loud thud.“Oww,” I grunted loudly and turned upward, still laying on the ground.Two guards came in view, standing above me with their swords drawn.“What are you doing?” The meaner one asked.Standing up there, staring down at me, and me laying down here with the sun threatening to blind me, wasn't exact

“Who are you?” I found myself repeating her question.This person obviously didn't like to be asked questions because her over-lined red lips curved up in a sneer.She was beautiful with bright blue eyes but those eyes held animosity as she stared down at me from her six-inch heels.“Haven't seen you around here before. You must be the new maid,” she said.“Haven't seen you around either,” I retorted.I knew I was being annoying but who cares?She narrowed her eyes in slits and bent down a bit so we were eye-level.“You seem not to know your place. I am the Alpha's….”The door burst open, cutting her off and she immediately stood upright and straightened her dress with her palm.I didn't even need to turn around to know who had entered.His presence, strong and domineering filled the room, almost bringing me to my knees.“What are you doing here?” His husky voice boomed.The woman, whose name I still didn't know, turned to me with a knowing smirk and crossed her arms over her chest.I

Ares' pov“Fuck!” I growled angrily and upturned the large desk till it fell a few feet away from me.My whole body reverberated with anger and I felt my wolf just on the surface, ready to devour anything on his path.My chest heaved up and down rapidly as I stared at the closed door which she had just walked through.How could someone so tiny be so infuriating?But then again, how was she getting to me?I had built walls around of myself and spent centuries mastering the art of not giving a fuck and right now, all those years and everything I knew, I felt slipping out of me.I really couldn't tell if it was her confidence that I couldn't do anything to her or the fact that I really can't do anything to her angered me the most.Running my fingers through my hair, I picked up my phone.The person on the other end picked on the first dial.“Replace my table!” I barked and hung up.That was all I needed to say and in less than three seconds, four guards walked into my office.Their eyes

I stormed out of his study and with quick, hurried steps, marched to heaven knows where.Feeling the need to stop and breathe, I took the first turn and luckily, it was the kitchen.I walked towards the sink, grabbed a glass from the cabinet and placed it under the faucet, letting it fill up.Once it began to overspill, I turned off the tap and threw my head back, downing the water in one go, hoping the cool liquid would quench the fire in my heart on its way.I was livid.Never in my life, past and present, have I ever been treated this way.“Who the fuck does he think he is?” I growled inwardly.“Who does who think he is?” Someone asked from beside me and my eyes rolled to the back of my head.Could someone have any alone time in this place?I ignored her, hoping she would just disappear but of course, I didn't have such luck.“Tabitha, are you okay?” Hilda asked.I kept mute.“Did you get in a fight with someone?” She asked again.I turned abruptly to face her and probably tell her

My eyes fluttered open slowly before the ceiling came in focus.I couldn't tell what time it was but everywhere was still very dark.I twisted and turned and tried to get back in a comfortable position to sleep and after about ten minutes of turning aimlessly, I huffed and sat up on the bed.I rubbed my eyes while yawning and stretching my body out.All I did was do chores around the house and sleep and even though my current body was too weak to do otherwise, my mind couldn't comprehend it.In the army, I was always busy.Physically, mentally and all round but now, I just felt like a potato.Sighing at my new reality, I tried to tame my wild hair by running my fingers through it and when I didn't succeed, I settled on tying it up and putting it in place with the scrunchie around my wrist.I yawned again and the hunger pangs in my stomach announced themselves, reminding me I hadn't had any dinner last night.Throwing my legs down, I looked around the dimly lit room and noticed one of

I opened and closed my mouth a few times, trying to come up with something in my defense, but words failed me.Maybe it was the way the lighting reflected on Ares' face, but I thought I saw just the tiniest smile on his lips before he turned around and walked away, leaving me speechless in the hallway.“Shit, shit, shit,” I muttered under my breath as I repeatedly hit my palm on the part of my forehead that wasn't swollen. Way to make his ego larger than it already was.I growled at the awkward situation and my stomach grumbled, reminding me of the reason why I came out here in the first place.I headed to the fridge and a smile covered my face, the memory of the embarrassing situation with the Alpha, momentarily flying out the window at the sight of all the food in the fridge.My stomach grumbled again and I grabbed bars of chocolate with a big bowl of choco chip ice cream.With the smile still planted on my face, I headed back to the room, hoping not to bump into a certain someone

I stared at her, waiting for her to continue but she turned back to what she was doing.I sighed. I guess I'll have to ask.“That's the reason for this rush, because?” She turned to me like she thought my reasoning process was too slow.“The Alpha is having his breakfast in the dining hall,” she repeated slowly like she was talking to a five-year old, who had understanding difficulties.“I heard you the first time, Hilda,” I said, resisting the urge to roll my eyes. “Why is it a big deal?”“Because the Alpha NEVER eats in the dining hall,” she said, laying heavy emphasis on ‘never’.I frowned.“The Alpha gets tired of a daily routine and wants to try something new. Big deal,” I said, trying to keep the sarcasm from my voice.“It is….” She started but shook her head. “Just fry the eggs,” she instructed like she thought I was hopeless.The memories of my terrible cooking experiences came back to me and I knew that wasn't going to end well.I had only barely passed the maid's test, whic
