The Alpha's Redemption Maid In his chamber
In situations like this, Isabella always thought things through. Rejecting the Alpha's invitation for as little a bite would make her sound proud. And accepting it might make her look foolish—and maybe look like a glutton—since Damon may be trying to test her."My alpha..." Isabella started, her lips curving into a welcoming smile. "Thank you so much. But it would bring me great happiness to see you enjoy your cake and finish with satisfaction. I don't want to spoil that." It was a great speech and she was already thinking of giving herself a mental thumbs-up when his voice came again, deep and booming, echoing across the room with that earth-after-rain warm smell she couldn't resist."Surely a taste won't shorten my ration or leave me unsatisfied. It would be a great pleasure to share my meal. Come on, have a bite." When Isabella heard the spoon clinking against the tray, she thought Damon had freed the spoon for her to take over. How wrong she was! Her eyes slowly tilted up to m
The Alpha's Redemption Maid More than an hour
The bath was more than relaxing, Isabella couldn't deny it.She could picture herself dozing off the moment her body touched the bed.On a normal night like this, in the apartment she managed with Iora, she would have turned on a lamp and spread herself on the bed with a book in her hands, and read late into the night.Books were like hot coals to her. The more she read, the more she blew on the flame, turning it into a mighty fire.She made a mental note to ask if there was any Librarl around in the pack. She could only hope, because a pack so big ought to have something as basic as a library.She had turned the couch to face the window and was seated on it, enjoying the view from where she sat. The Alpha's window was just some meters away from hers. If he wasn't asleep, she knew he might also be looking out, staring at the beauty of the pack at night.Isabella made another mental note: she would find out what was wrong with the alpha that turned him into a hermit.She didn't know ho

Her heart hammered against her chest. If she was previously feeling groggy, all traces of sleep completely disappeared.The sounds became faint now...Then she heard heavy breathing that accompanied the sounds of something breaking, something hard and sturdy.Everything happened in a minute.After that was utter silence.Isabella knew that that the danger hadn't passed. It seemed so well to be the calm before a storm. She looked at the opened window at the other side and noticed the glow of the moon streaming in, painting the room white, adding sauce to the fear inside her.She was right. The silence was the calm before the storm. Loud thuds started from the end of the corridor—at the Alpha's end—and progressed, sounding like footsteps the more it advanced closer.Isabella, still on the floor, gasped and turned to the door, instinctively moving back with her eyes opened wide and her breath stuck in her throat.The thuds got to her door and stopped.She could hear it...She could hear
The Alpha's Redemption Maid The bodies
At first everything happened in slow motion. Isabella could see the muscled figure approaching, the swing of his shoulder tossing his hair around his shoulders, and his lips moving, saying something about taking the tray from her.Then, she saw the faint print in the front of the towel. She hadn't planned to look there, even the gods could see how innocent she was, but it was difficult not to look that way when he towered above her, displaying the long outline pressing against the fabric on the towel. She had wanted to speak, to tell him that she didn't need some hours off and that her night was fine, but the words did not form. So, as an alternative, she tried to move back while forcing her mouth to resume functioning, but her feet had decided to fail her as well.She yelped as her back reached for the floor. The tray went into the air. Even as she fell, her mind was on the tray. She saw Damon's figure move. It was a blur. By the time a gasp escaped her lips, she felt something st

Something was definitely wrong with the pack.Either the pack or Damon... Isabella wasn't sure.Bodies... Ralph had said bodies were found by the river. She could only ask herself if it was just a slang for something else, or if they were talking about actual bodies...The thought sent shivers into Isabella. She grabbed her gown tightly as her heartbeat increased."Fuck," she muttered to herself and started an aimless journey out of the house. It was clear as day that very confidential topics were about to be discussed, hence the Alpha's request for her to leave.Isabella stood on the front porch and took in the beauty of the morning sun reflecting on every surface that could bounce back its rays."ARE YOU OKAY, MY LADY?""Huh?" Isabella spun to the right. She was so lost in thought when she stepped out that she hadn't noticed the guard standing outside the building with a sheathed sword clasped to his side."Is everything okay?"She asked herself the question again and again.

The Alpha's Redemption Maid Determination
Isabella left Albus' quarters with more questions than she could handle.When she got to one of the paths that led to the Alpha's mansion, she saw the people walking in groups to the gate.Curious, she followed them, tightly clutching the concoction to herself.The gate was now rowdy and clustered since it seemed the guards at the gate didn't want to let the people out. There was rising dust already and raised voices.Isabella's curiosity spiked up."... They need to let us see what is going on..." someone said from behind her."Yes, I will go out even if it means breaking that gate down..."Isabella quietly trailed behind the two chattering women. It turned out that there was something beyond the gate that was being taken care of that didn't need to be looked at.And it seemed the pack was getting weary of being lied to cover secrets and important things regarding the alpha and the pack.Through the countless conversations on the way to the gate, Isabella picked up a lot of informati

"Are you okay?"Isabella looked up from the floor where she was busy monitoring the shapes of the tile design. Just as she expected, Damon tarried in swallowing the liquid, and she couldn't leave him to it for fear of the alpha getting it disposed."I'm fine, sir," she replied, a bit surprised. "Are you okay?""Oh, yes I'm great." He sounded like a breath of fresh air, and even though the room was dark and they could barely see each other, she felt the tension in the air lessen.The sound of voices drew their attention to the window.The pack members were returning, Isabella could perceive. Sparing a quick glance at Damon's silhouette on the bed, she slowly walked to the window and raised a part of it."Careful," Damon called behind her, a rumble in his warning.Isabella turned back immediately and threw the curtain back in place."I'm sorry. I—""It's okay. Just make sure it doesn't go beyond that. What is going on outside?"A throng of people converged upon the looming gate, its mon
The Alpha's Redemption Maid The new maid
Another guard walked past. Isabella looked up, startled like she was before. She moved into the comfort of the sofa, pulling her legs with her in fear. This was a bad idea. She should have listened to her friend, Iora, when they discussed in the morning about her quest to seek for the vacant position of a maid for the alpha in Moonrise pack. For one, she was the only applicant in the waiting room. Secondly, she had been sitting for almost thirty minutes and had not been called in. Nervously, Isabella started tapping her foot on the floor. From the interior of the mansion, one would think of it as simply big. But what Isabella saw on the inside left her speechless. Everything was purposely gigantic. From the sofas to the tables and even the chandeliers, it felt like she had stepped foot into the lair of a monster. Or maybe she was actually in the lair of a monster. The rumours about Damon, the alpha she came seeking a maid position for, spiralled around a man with long de

The Alpha's Redemption Maid "Come have a taste"
Their journey back to the mansion was very slow because Isabella earnestly tried to buy herself some time. Twice she got the offer to hand the gold-and-glass tray over and twice she politely rejected the offer. If she allowed Ralph carry it, he would see how her hands were shaking uncontrollably. "So, enjoy your first day," Ralph said when they got to the second floor where his chamber was situated. "Remember, you can always come to me if you need anything. My room is just over there." Isabella did not bother turning her head to follow his fingers. She had gone there once, and might go there again, because she doubted if she would be comfortable with Madam Margaux like she was with Ralph."Thank you... for everything." "Oh, it's okay. Have a lovely day!" Isabella murmured "and you too" under her breath as she walked up the stairs, her sandal making soft thudding noises. The tray in her grasp felt a ton when she got to the Alpha's floor and looked into the darkness in the distanc
The Alpha's Redemption Maid The Alpha's Cook?!
Isabella was trying her best to stay cool. There was this intense feeling to move close to the wizard and yank on his silky white strands until they pulled off. It was just a thought. One she didn't intend to execute.She was better off as a human and not some magically-morphed four-legged dirt-eating animal. The thought made her chuckle. "Sorry, I didn't get that." Isabella looked up with widened eyes. "Oh, no. I didn't say anything."Albus made a throaty sound. "I was asking if you have been briefed on the rules." "Errm, yeah. I know I am to be punctual and desist from clamour, and—" "I honestly have no business with that," Albus gently interjected. "I want to know if you know what to report to me." Isabella stole a confused glance at Ralph who indicated for her to look back to the wizard. "I... I don't know anything about that sir.""Now, listen to me," Albus said and sat up. "Damon takes a daily dose of medications that helps to... that helps him to survive.""The alpha is
