~Jessica~ I was finally myself, back to being the maid he wanted me to be. Everywhere seemed busy, it had been like this for days, people walking up and down like they were on a life mission. It had never been so busy here in the kitchen as finally they were all showing their faces. I didn’t want to see their faces before with the insults they gave me on my first day here, but I’ll rather have them here now on.. anything to take my mind off him. I gave it through thinking and it’s way better to see a bunch of maids who could only try to inflict pain on you with just their words than to stay in this big house with one beta annoying the shit out of me and the big bad alpha inflicting pain on me with his words, presence and everything that embodied him. I was going to pretend like I wasn’t counting the days, which was almost a week that I hadn’t seen his face. I asked a few questions from Gianna and definitely nobody had taken on my job yet as his personal serv
~Tristan~ “Is she good?” I asked immediately my beta stepped in. I shouldn’t be asking to know if she’s fine and keeping up well. Okay maybe that question should be if she wasn’t causing any troubles. But I just damn shouldn’t be asking any question about her at all, we were in a crisis and I should keep my head in the game. But that just wasn’t going to happen when I knew my young mate was somewhere in this house, moving around, hopefully not in clothes that didn’t reveal much. Thank God my men don’t come in here. “Yea she's good.” He repeated the same answer he gave me every time I asked. Refusing to question my actions and it was a good decision as I wouldn’t have answered and still asked about her. “He’s still pushing up for a visit right?” I asked, taking our minds back to serious business. Leroy was seriously pushing it, and I swear it’s only his title keeping him safe from me. “Yes boss, I had to intercept many of his calls.
~Sebastian~ (early morning before he spoke to her.) “Don’t act strange, don’t be stupid. Don’t make her feel alone or lonely, use your brain wisely and don’t make me come clean up this place when its splattered with your blood.” I was only following orders, using even kinder words than the one Tristan sent me to say. “Okay beta Sebastian. We’ll do just that.” They responded all at once, their heads bowed down as you could taste their fear in the air. This was not my duty in any way but I’ll gladly do it because it’s for her. There wasn’t any reason for me to act protective of her, but I wanted to do it without finding any issue with it as it just felt like a duty I had to do. He doesn’t realize it yet but I know he doesn’t plan on rejecting her and if I’m guessing rightly, it’s not even in his thoughts at all. His actions, the looking past her actions, his questions here and there, making sure she was fine even while he was goddamn busy. “She
~Jessica~ I was getting used to everything, just standing on the sidelines as the others worked. Been days Sebastian agreed on being friends with me. He disappeared since then, I don't know why I haven’t said that before but I just did. It felt weird, and burdensome taking my eyes up every time I heard noise. They’ve been in the office most of the times together and other times it’ll just be Tristan there alone. Crazy right? Taking notes seemed to happen by itself, like there was nothing I could do about it and trust me when I say that I tried stopping. “Why do you get so busy if your alpha never gets out?” It just occurred to me suddenly and I just had to ask. They all did hear me as I noticed the way their eyes moved up. “I mean why do you guys get so busy and do a whole lot of things daily.” I rephrased the question, waiting now for an answer. “The other men get very hungry after training hard everyday. And we also prepare for those on duties, and all.” One of th
~Jessica~ “Don’t .. don’t call me any of that.” I spoke out, my voice losing its normal strength it was used to. He was staring straight into me, probably enjoying the way I sounded and was looking so unsure. “Okay if that's what you want. And you still haven’t clarified the thing about wanting to know who served me, you know I’m not believing that apple shit thing” He asked again, clearly not planning on letting this go. I start to fidget and I don’t know why,.. it had never happened before. Like I was becoming too conscious of his presence, hell I was even doing everything in me to get pictures of him up close away from my head. I tried to put on a smile, completely confused on what’s going on with me but I’m definitely going to hide it.. mask it all away till I figure out what’s happening. “Just wanted to make you were hale and hearty. You know only I get to drive a stake through your heart.” His smile depended, I could already picture him laug
~Jessica~ “You don’t look happy or yourself, are you okay?” He asked, disturbing my thoughts. I gave him my attention briefly, telling him off. I really wasn’t in the mood now. It’s been a day and I haven't seen him again. I mean I don’t want to see him or anything but he said he was going to see me soon. And Sebastian standing right in front of me, talking and saying things I wasn’t clearly paying attention to. He’s been around, showing up even just to say that he was busy before disappearing but that monster was playing a ghost on me. I needed to talk to him, we needed to clear up some things. If possible, ask him to forget the image of my naked body in his head so that I can feel a bit settled. I was too concious, didn’t want to see him but I’ve been hoping he would walk in on me unexpectedly like before while I sit on my thoughts. Asking him to be his annoying self, while I be the stubborn one till I get my revenge on him. “Jess? You don’t loo
~Jessica~ I woke up extra late or rather came out late than usual. Just stupid time thinking if I should still wear one of Gianna’s things or his own clothes. Or I could mix them up? It’s just shirts, I could always wear something else to distract myself. Wait… what am I doing? Why am I even thinking of wearing his shirts? “Please just get out of my head.” I muttered to myself, shaking my head frantically as I needed to get those thoughts out of my head. “Gianna, please can I have a glass of water.” I held my head with both my heads, walking straight off to the island to sit. I know I’m supposed to be a maid because I was forced to but lately that idea has slowly been fading away. I pretty much had nothing to do and I felt okay asking Gianna for a drink. “One coming up right now.” She muttered, more like whispering as I barely heard her, her voice sounding a bit croaked. Maybe she was tired because I didn’t bother looking up, I had my own
~Tristan~ “Hey Evie!” I walked towards the sitting room we hardly ever used. Her smile bright and so big as she rushed to hug me. “I should be pretty mad at you” she hits chest playfully , bugging me lightly as she stood to face me still smiling so big. Memories rushing back in, as it’s so good to see this little nuisance after such a long time. “But you can’t be, so don’t waste your precious time thinking it through. I said jokingly, allowing myself to smile a little, ignoring the scent I could nowadays never miss for even just a minute. “I missed you so much, you should have called me to visit a lot sooner.” She squeaked, rushing back at me for another hug, as her hands flew to the back of my neck, jumping up to hug me properly. “Mtchew …. it’s so stuffy and an ugly sight in here.” Her voice forcefully called my attention this time as I turned to finally face her. Of course I knew she was there, I smelt her the instant I got to the stairs. I s
~Jessica~ I don’t know exactly what I was thinking … oh scratch that, I wasn’t thinking at all because I walked out of my room without changing or anything but just packed my hair up. Walking with so much force and focus, I even ignored Evie who was standing a few steps from his office. I ignored her because her presence only fueled me more to make things straight. “What? She had come to have a personal breakfast with him ..tsk.” I murmured those words to myself, my heart swelling and filling with more anger. I finally got to his door and pushed it open, storming in like I had every right to. “I didn’t wear your clothes because I wanted to, so don't go around thinking otherwise. It's best I break it down and explain it all than have you thinking I’ll ever do that willingly.” I angrily blurted out immediately I walked in. His face came into my view and I also took note of Sebastian. They both turned to face me at the same time and maybe I sh
~Tristan~ “What more news?” He was already waiting for me in the office, standing like it was something serious. Okay it was serious, I knew that as the alpha but I just really wanted the only issue I have to be how am I going about to make Jessica tell me all about herself. “They left an initial in the letter, and I heard they are regrouping according to his order.” He was looking straight at me, the authenticity of what he was saying becoming more clear than anything. “What initials?” I still just had to ask even if I already had an idea what it was. “T.T.D.” He said it without so much stress, knowing fully well that I obviously knew what it was. I didn’t hold back, I laughed. Smirking and then smiling because I wanted to. Pretty smart of them to use that. “They have such guts to try this and think they can go Scot free, boss.” He spitted out of silent fury. You could clearly hear the disgust and anger in his voice. “I’ll give i
~Jessica~ “Are you okay?” Gianna's voice brought me back out of my head. “I’m good, when did you get in?” I rushed to cover my face with one of my hands. I must be st*pid, why did I just freaking zone out?! He’s a monster, he knows how to be cunny. But jeez he was standing so close, his eyes were right there in front of me. His presence and his words. I don’t know why I hesitated and didn’t just go with the idea of yelling at him no straight up that I didn’t trust him one bit and all the other angry stuff I usually say. Or is this happening just because I called him my mate to Evie? “Jessica? Are you okay?” The voice sounded worried, a bit high hitched, calling for my full attention as she had to touch my arms. “You asked me a question and I just answered you but you zoned out like how I met you when I first entered.” She said, her eyes moving to search for me if I was okay. “I’m so sorry, I’m fine I’m fine. What are you doing here so early?” I
~Tristan~ “You sleep like you are not here for revenge, you sleep very calm and so relaxed.” I uttered immediately her eyes goes open. I’ve been waiting and sitting here for the longest that I can remember. “What the hell are you doing here?” She screeched, her hands failing to cover what I’ve seen already. I adjusted a little in the chair I was sitting in, it was very close to her bed. The perfect position to get a good and close look of her. She sat up on her bed, her hand sprawled all over her body, trying so hard to cover her chest that was already covered. “You're wearing something princess, but I’m assuming nothing down there right?” The thought alone was too enticing, enjoying the way her hair flowed right to her back, long, dark and full all the way down to her waist. “What are you doing here?” She asked, trying to pull my shirt all the way down. “I take it that I have a chance with you? I mean you have my shirt on.” I let her see the smile I w
~Tristan~ “What do you mean they were attacked?” I yelled out at Sebastian, my voice thundering. It wasn’t making sense at all. Is it a prank? But Sebastian knows better than to joke with these kinds of things. “Yes boss, they were attacked and he was severely wounded.” He said, maintaining the same position earlier on. His eyes leveled and positioned just below mine. “I need details, now!” I don’t know why I was mad but I was damn freaking mad. That was my freaking shot to call. “I just got news now from our eyes in there and this happened like an hour ago.” He started. “It looked like an inside work since they could easily blow out the whole house. And probably more than half the pack was gone too in just a very short time.” His voice sounded quite normal as it should since we weren’t definitely affected in any way. I was just pissed that anyone dared to take away what I perceived as my right to do. “I want names, but he still breat
~Jessica~ They tricked me, left me to talk to myself all through as they busied themselves eating. They actually did ignore me as I angrily said all I felt like saying. And the most annoying part was after all my talking, they’ll turn and just smile like there was something interesting on my face. Finally it was over and I don’t know how I sat through it all but I did. They still just smiled and stood up together, talking over only god knows what. “You didn’t eat anything, it wasn’t to your liking ?” Gianna muttered,asking as she got busy with the clearing of plates and the others joined her to clear up. “More like I couldn’t. How do you think it’s possible to eat with those two looking right at me when they feel like and coupled up with that very annoying smile.” I said through my teeth, hating that thought that I might have told them something valuable about myself. In all sense I didn't but I just was thinking about it, getting angrier by the m
~Tristan~ “Ouch, having dinner without me?” Sebastian walked in just at the perfect timing. “Took you long enough” I said with my focus on the covered plates i was opening up, acting like I didn’t know she moved closer. I didn’t plan on threatening her with that but she left me with no choice. “Had to do my job alpha, just incase she made a run for it and escaped you.” He uttered with a proud smile I could expect behind his voice as he joined in opening up the plates. “Wait what?” She broke the silence I thought would go on for a while. I looked at Sebastian first, a sorry look on his face before I turned back to face her. “Who was going to make a run from anything?” She asked squinting her eyes as she looked intently at me. “You were going to force me to have dinner even if I went back up?” She asked more clearly, my face up in a really relaxed smile. “I knew you were smart to figure that out but what I wasn’t sure of was if you we
~Jessica~ “Where are you going? stay down for dinner.” He wasn’t asking but saying that I stayed. I ignored it, acted like I didn’t hear him because I didn’t want to hear him. I went back to his office— yes. But I didn’t say a single word to him, didn’t look his way and only focused on stuffing my mouth till I finished every single damn thing on the tray. I wasn’t interested with their so called dinner like old times. I only even came down now because I wanted to get food upstairs. I didn’t want to come down for anything and walk in on them like I didn’t know they would be there. “She just ate brother Tan, I’m sure she’s still very full.” The cunny one resounded with her pretentious voice as I could only hear her voice behind me. Thank the goddess I didn’t have to see her pretentious face while she did her thing. I act like they weren’t there, deciding to just rather go up with just a bottle of water. I was done and ready to go back to my roo
~Evie~ There’s no way I’m going to believe otherwise that this girl from nowhere had done something to my Tristan. I was more than shocked to see her here, I wasn't warned ahead or anything so I was a bit taken aback. Tristan never ever brought his past girls to the house. You might be wondering how I know but I had my eyes here. It was completely impossible to do that but anyone in love would do that. I jumped at the opportunity and was glad. I even almost cried tears of joy when I saw the invitation to come over. I was so happy that my years of waiting and praying to the moon goddess was finally not in vain and my request was answered. Just to come and everything squash before my eyes. Of course I kept my composure, I knew from the first glance that she wasn’t just any girl. Tristan never does too young ones as he puts it, I mean that’s the only reason I’ve never been direct and only hoped on him realizing it himself. I gathered informati
