••ALEXANDRA POV••

"Who cares about what they hide in that annex?" I tried to brush off my thoughts, "it's not my concern, I'll just concentrate on my work."

Their warning about the annex kept replaying in my mind.

I tried to shake it off, but the maids’ stares didn’t help.

Their whispers followed me like a shadow, their glances sharp and curious, I can hear them talking about me by pointing their looks at me.

I knew this feeling all too well, especially those judgemental looks, they are so scary.

Back at my old pack, the maids had been ruthless. Every mistake was magnified, every act of defiance punished, I'm almost terrified and I don't want to socialize with any of these people, who knows if they're the same or different from those maids of my previous pack.

I lowered my head and smiled awkwardly, hoping to avoid confrontation, then hurried to my room, before someone could approach me.

Spying?" Out of the three brothers, I knew Dylan was the most dangerous and cruel. The one who could crush someone’s spirit with a single glance. Yet, it was him who had caught me, as if I don't have enough troubles.Damien stepped closer, walking straight to me with a frightening aura. "Didn’t I tell you to go back to your room? What exactly are you doing here, even after I told you to leave?" He demanded, with a voice low and frustration filled.I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out, as I'm already too scared enough to utter a word, my body trembling under the weight of his anger.Damien sighed, rubbing his temples.

    ••ALEXANDRA POV••"From tomorrow your mission starts! In the morning you'll come along with us, so don't be late!" These are the words I heard from Damien last night and I couldn't sleep throughout the night thinking about what might be the mission they're going to assign to me.I'm not sure how a week passed already, but in this week of time with all nutritious food and good medicine, all the injuries were healed, I looked healthy and more like a proper person rather than a skeleton and thin layer of skin attached to that skeleton.The morning light passed through the thin curtains, but I'm already sitting on the edge of the bed, trying to calm my racing heart.Before even the sun rose, I woke up to get myself ready, as I'm already prepared, I can't help but to think about the things, the Alpha Kings had informed me last night. They didn’t say where, and the uncertainty filled in me. My stomach twisted with nerves as my mind ran through all kinds of possibilities."Will it be dange

    ••ALEXANDRA POV••"If they're yours, why don't you just be with them?"That was the sharp reply I wanted to throw at her for her ridiculous behaviour just because of jealousy, somehow I calmed down not wanting to get into a trouble right on my first day.I clenched my fist under the desk as I swallowed the words. I had no idea what consequences I might face if I dared to talk back, so I preferred to be silent rather than ending up in trouble.Before I could decide whether to speak or leave the room, somehow the door was opened, and the professor entered.Instantly, the entire class became silent, all the students got back to their seats, pretending as if nothing had happened.My tormentors smirked at me before returning to their places, I can say by the look on their faces they must be feeling as if they had a victory.I quickly took out my handkerchief, wiping the sticky juice off my face and hair as best as I could. My cheeks burned out of humiliation, but I refused to let tears fal

    ••ALEXANDRA POV••"Ahhh!"A painful cry escaped my lips as I opened my eyes slightly waking up from an unconscious state, the heavy and spinning feel in my head is vulnerable, especially a slight ache against the side of my skull is unbearable.I blinked hard, trying to adjust my eyes to the dim lighting of the unfamiliar room, everything seems to be blurred, hard to focus."Easy my dear," a calm voice came to comfort my panic, followed by a gentle hand pressing against my shoulder, guiding me back down. "You’re safe and you’re in the school clinic, you don't have to worry about anything, just lie down for a while." The voice belonged to a doctor in a white coat, I can see her being concerned by the way she is looking at me.I took a deep breath, still trying to understand everything by gathering all my thoughts. My fingers reached up instinctively, and I winced when they brushed the plaster on the side of my head."What… what happened?" I asked her with a trembling voice.The doctor

    ••DOMINIC POV••"When will this ever end?" Pain was my only companion. It passed through every muscle and bone of my body, a restless torment for years that made each breath feel like a razor cutting my lungs. I lay there on the cold stone floor, chains biting into my wrists and ankles, my scattered clothes barely enough to cover my body. Agony had become a permanent cloud over my mind.But then, I felt a shift in the suffocating air, the faint creak of the door that shouldn’t have opened at least not in this time.My muscles are getting tensed as I narrowed my eyes and raised my head slightly. Expecting Damien, Dylan, or David, I braced for their usual silent, painful glances and the food they would bring for me hoping at least it would keep me alive. Yet, this time, it was different.That's when I heard a small gasp, "what on earth is this!" I looked up, and I was surprised because of the person standing in front of me.It wasn't Damien, Dylan, or David, but a girl.She stood the

Dylan’s gaze shifted from Dominic to me, anger evident on his face. "What do you think you’re doing here? I think we already told you annex is something you're not allowed to go," he hissed with a serious tone.I flinched in fear and stood up slowly, turning to face them with a nervous look. "I was just helping," I said with a low tone which is barely audible, "I found him like this and couldn’t just leave him alone, so decided to help him." David stepped forward, narrowi

I looked frightened by his intimidating aura, but all he said was, "since you know how to judge a man perfectly, why don't we see how you're going to judge us after tonight?" I was so scared I couldn’t do anything. All I wanted was for them to let me leave this place and stop looking at me like I was some prey to them.Damien, Dylan and David growled in my direction as Damien took a steady walk to me.I could see how mad he was but I held myself from saying anything that would piss him off even more.In the fit of their rage, I felt the atmosphere change as something like electricity passed through me. It felt charged and I held my arms across my chest while leaning back as I was scared of what he would do to me.I was here with these Alpha kings. What else would they do to me? Maybe I had been clueless but how they had treated that man was too bad.Suddenly, something between us started to get harder and stronger as it pulled us closer.I was terrified as I

Always disobedient!" David, Daniel and Dylan sat at the balcony in their briefs as they lounged and talked to each other."Lan, she is still a child, being curious is something you can't stop, however she didn't do anything that can cause trouble to us, even in the academy I got to know she was bullied by those people," David tried to support Alexandra.To which Dylan sighed, "it's you who always supports her no matter what she does, if you keep on doing this, she'll no longer listen to you either." “Maybe we went too far with her tonight,” David said as his brothers laughed while smacking his shoulder.“Is the great Alpha King David scared of hurting her?” Dylan laughed which had everyone laug

I ignored him, and made my way straight to my room.The moment I stepped into my room, I closed the door in a hurry and leaned against it, exhaling my breath heavily, "Oh God! These four brothers will never let me live peacefully." My heart was still racing from earlier, Dylan’s words, his touch, his kisses, those piercing eyes of the rest of the brothers glancing at me, all these are seriously annoying.I shook my head and groaned, walking straight to the mirror.The reflection staring back at me had bright red cheeks, come on I'm looking almost like a cherry tomato, is this how I stood in front of them till now? "Ugh, crazy... I'm so stupid," I mumbled touching my face as if that would cool down t

Dylan gently caressed her hair, "I told you, these people are bullies, but you believed in them, look at them bullying us like this just because we went out for once." "Come on, you don't have to act innocent in front of her," David smacked on Dylan's head, "We are not bullying you but questioning you about taking her out, since we all know how crazy you are! And we are afraid that you might end up hurting that little girl!" Dylan smirked, tightening his hold on Alexandra's waist, "Come on, I'll not hurt her, and I don't find anything wrong with me taking my mate out for a night, how does it even bother you people?" David rolled his eyes. "She is not just yours, Dylan, she belongs to all of us, she is our mate too." Dylan narrowed his eyes, placing a kiss on Alexandra's cheek.

The birds chirping sounded like an alarm, the sun had barely coming out of the clouds, however Alexandra's beautiful sleep was disturbed by birds, she slightly woke up feeling a warm, and tight arms wrapping around her.It took her a moment to realise where she was, curled up in Dylan’s lap, his arms wrapped protectively around her. The fire from last night had turned into ashes, the sunrise was both beautiful and warm, his embrace felt more warmer.Dylan’s chest rose and fell in a slow rhythm, his steady heartbeat against her chest, she stared at his calm face, this is the first she ever got a chance to see him like this, and this is the first time he has been this close and gentle with her.But the moment she moved to touch his face, he stirred in his sleep as if it was a wake up call for him, but his grip around her tightened for a second before his sleepy eyes finally opened.As soon as his eyes glanced at her beautiful and refreshed face, a warm

Dylan nodded, the soft fire casting warm shadows in the woods, the scent of burning wood, fresh soil, made it exciting for both of them, especially the smell from Dylan wanting her to just bite him."These pheromones smell so good," Alexandra whispered, he kissed on her jawline, "Only you can feel them, because you are our little mate." Alexandra blushed biting her lower lip, Dylan placed his hand on her hand tracing lazy circles on her wrist, "Golden keys were a part of werewolf foundation history, and their existence was known by everyone yet it's a secret forbidden to speak out." She mumbled in a calm voice, "Known by everyone, yet forbidden to speak out, why like that?" Dylan let out a soft chuckle looking at her cute face while questioning him, "You ask too many questions, little spy." She frowned turning her face away, "I'm not a spy, you people made

What makes you think he will be tamed with her?" Dominic smiled at David's worries, "Relax David, we know you are worried about her, but see, he loves her a lot, he is serious about Alexa, this is the opportunity for him to cool her hatred towards him." Looking at David being calm, Dominic continued, "Infact, I'm also angry that he took her out without any of our permission but I didn't say a word because this is the only thing we can do now, since, the more she hates him, the more she thinks of leaving this place, if he can manage winning her heart, then her thoughts about leaving this place also decreases, right now, I don't want anything more than this." Damien exhaled, rubbing his temple. "I just hope she doesn’t push him away, but after what he did for her last night, maybe we should try to trust him at least for on

Dylan gently pulled her into his embrace, "You're mistaken Alexa, our home is your home!" The words which he couldn't say out aloud were felt inwardly, "I'm sorry Alexa, like my brothers said, I can't openly tell you the truth, our lives are hanging on a thin line of hope, that's why we made you our spy instead of happily accepting you as our mate," There is unexplainable pain behind every single word repeating in his heart, "In case, if incase something were to happen to us, we don't want you to suffer, but never expected our fear of losing you will make you think of as cold and unloving beasts, we want to give you a happy home, but instead our cold attitude made you think of escaping from us, I wish we could solve all these misunderstandings one day."

He looked frightened thinking someone intruded into the room.To shake off the sleepiness, he rubbed his eyes, while Alexandra's breathing became heavy when she slowly looked down to check what hopped on her.To her surprise, it's nothing but a small and soft kitten.Dylan let out a deep sigh, falling back on the bed once again. "Seriously? You screamed over a little kitten? What's this Alexa? You woke me up from my deep sleep due to a tiny kitten, how can you do it?" Alexandra is already embarrassed while Dylan is making fun of her, so she sighed. "Why is it even here? I have never seen a kitten in our house before, who brought it, now?""Dominic," Dylan lazily kissed on her hand, "He got it for you only, don't you know that?"Alexandr

Alexandra returned the smile, though a flicker of curiosity was evident on her face while checking the birthmark she has.Meanwhile, Mrs. Helen's thoughts getting scrambled within herself, "It can't be, I must be mistaken, though she has little resemblance, though she reminds me too much of her, still how could this child be the one I'm thinking of? How is that even possible? Maybe it's just a coincidence." Before Alexandra could ask anything, the butler entered and bowed respectfully, "My Lord, just as you instructed, I’ve prepared a room for Mrs. Helen."Mrs. Helen nodded with a smile, "Thank you."

Both of them didn't even have any contact with each other, if so why did you call her for Alexa." "You'll find out soon enough," Dominic said while yawning lazily, "But for now, let's go, we can't keep our guest waiting for us." Before following his brothers, he turned to Alexandra with a gentle expression, "Freshen up and come downstairs, my love." Dylan blinked his eyes with an innocent face. "Can I also take some rest and come downstairs?"
