Veil Of Destiny 9: Obsession
Maria's POV The light from the sun filtered through the thin curtains of the servants’ quarters, casting soft rays across the rough wooden walls. I sat on my cot, staring at the cleaning supplies by my feet. My hands trembled as I reached for the broom. I had spent the past two nights twisting and turning in my bed, haunted by Sophie’s warning and my last encounter with Alpha Felix."You'll see things you're not meant to see," she'd whispered. Her face had been pale, her voice barely above a breath. "And if you do, Maria, the penalty is death."The weight of her words hung over me like a shadow, following me through every chore, every glance down the dim hallways of the estate. I had avoided Alpha Felix for as long as I could, but his demand had been clear. There was no avoiding his chambers today. The head maid had made it clear to me last night that I was now officially in charge of cleaning the Alpha's chambers. It was a confirmation of what he had told me the day before when he

Alpha Felix’s POVThe room felt emptier without Maria. Her fiery defiance lingered in the air, taunting me. I paced back and forth, adrenaline coursing through me like wildfire. My chest heaved with frustration, desire still clawing at my insides. The way she looked at me before running out, those eyes filled with both fear and contempt only fueled my need to dominate her, to break her resistance. I couldn’t stand it. I needed relief, and if Maria wasn’t going to give it to me, I would find it elsewhere. Even the handmaiden brought to me that had satisfied me so many times in the past was not enough. I wanted more and I wanted it now.Storming out of my chambers, I headed to the servants’ quarters. The hallways were dimly lit, but I didn’t need light to navigate. I knew this place like the back of my hand. When I arrived, my gaze landed on Sophie. She was quiet, obedient, and wouldn’t dare resist me. “Sophie,” I barked. She looked up, startled, clutching a basket of freshly fold

Maria's POVI couldn’t sleep. Every creak of the floorboards, every whisper of wind against the windows sent my heart racing. I expected Alpha Felix to burst through the door at any moment, his face twisted in rage, ready to end me. Or worse, send his guards to drag me back to his chambers. I had apologized for breaking his nose, not that he seemed inclined to listen. Even though he deserved it, part of me regretted the impulsive punch. It had felt good at the moment, but now, the consequences loomed over me like a dark storm cloud. “You need to calm down,” Sophie said softly from the corner of the cramped room we shared. She was folding laundry, her hands steady and precise despite the late hour. “If Alpha Felix wanted to kill you, he would’ve done it already. Probably before you even left the lakeside.” Her calmness irritated me, though I knew she meant well. “How can you be so sure?” I snapped, pacing back and forth. “He was furious. I saw it in his eyes. You needed to see th

Maria's POV "Maria, wake up!" I heard a harsh voice call my name. I nearly peed my pants, fearing that it was time and I was finally going to get punished for breaking Alpha Felix's nose. Sophie sat up in her bed, her face etched in concern for my safety but I knew I didn't have a choice, and not even the moon goddess could save me now. "Go," she whispered, "May the moon goddess be with you," Sophie said, shaking her head sadly at me. "He is definitely going to kill me," I said to her, my voice trembling in fear. "I really don't know. I am hoping that he doesn't." She whispered. "Maria! Are you deaf? I said wake up. The Alpha has requested for you. Since you have decided to test your combat skills, you will have to pay for the consequences of it now." The head maid yelled at me from the door. I didn't need any further prompting, not wanting to worsen my situation any worse than it already was. I jumped off the bed and ran around the room, picking my clothes and throwing m

Alpha Leo's POV"So where could she have gone? How hard is it for all of you not to be able to find one miserable girl?" I bellowed at the men who shrank back in fear, annoying me the most. "We have been trying Alpha. It seems as if she has just disappeared off the face of the earth." One of my men said and I punched him squarely in the nose. "Get out of here," I ordered and the men fell over themselves, trying to rush out of the room. Just as the men left, the door was thrown open again and Sophia came in. She looked very furious and I knew without a doubt that she had come here only to start a fight, which I was not in the mood for. "Why are you doing this?" She yelled at me, confirming my thoughts. "Doing what Sophia?" I asked, pretending not to know what she was talking about. "You know exactly what I am talking about, stop pretending not to know about it." She yelled at me and stomped to my front, her chest rising and falling. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, tryin

Maria's POV I didn't stop running until I was at the gate, the guards there refused to grant me passage out of the palace so I sat down there, letting the tears run down my face. They didn't pay me any mind and continued about their job like I was not even there.When it was late, I saw Sophie approaching me with tears in her eyes. She had bruises all over her body and her eyes now held a resentment that had not been there before. "You are he...""Get up and follow me." She said coldly, not minding what I was telling her. I looked closely at her, unable to recognize the stranger in front of me. She was cold and detached, scaring me that something else had gone wrong."What is it? Did I do something wrong?" I asked her, moving close to her so the guards would not hear our conversation. Instead, Sophie took a few steps back and crossed her arms. I saw the hungry slashes of the whip and knew without a doubt what Aloha Felix had done to her. "I'm sorry," I whispered, hoping she would f

Maria's POV "Looks like you are ready to get the party started" Alpha Felix's unmistakable face was staring at me in the dark, his eyes glinting with an evil smile. "What do you want from me?" I said as I backed away trying to escape from the room but he had seen through my intention so he locked the door quickly before I could get to it. "Leaving so soon?" He asked me, his eyes boring a hole into my chest. "I can't do what you are asking of me. I can't!" I yelled back at him, but he didn't flinch. I saw two bodyguards emerging from the shadows and all my senses became alert. "You see, I always thought that you were wise but you have proven to me that you are just like the other women. You want me to put in the work, and go the extra mile to make you bow to my desires, which at the end of the day, it's even enjoyable for you. I would really hate to do this the hard way" he said and the fear threatened to cripple my legs as I thought of a possible way to escape."Give up already."

Maria's POV "It was your first time?" Sophie asked, her voice filled with disgust and envy. I held my stomach as the pain tore through my body, threatening to cripple me. "Argh" I groaned and sat on the floor, the blood dripping to the ground. "I think you should go to the clinic," she said and turned, leaving me to my fate. I lay there, trying to regulate my breathing before I dragged myself to wear my clothes. When I managed to get out of the room, the girls alongside Sophie looked at me like I was faking it. "Look at her!" One of them commented and they laughed. "Oh don't worry sweet innocent girl, by the time he touches you for the fourth time, you won't even feel anything" another one teased and the girls laughed harder. My chest hurt with the pain I felt as my head began to work a way for me to escape. My mind was so distracted that I jumped when I felt a hand on my shoulders. I looked up to see Maya, one of the youngest servants in the palace. Everyone knew that Alpha Fe

Veil Of Destiny 36: A Confrontation
Maria's POV It wasn't hard to find my way to the clinic the next day. I had a lot I wanted to talk about with Elvira. The nightmare I had was heavy on my mind but I needed to ask her if she could help me return the Alpha's staff of authority. It didn't take long for me to get to the clinic, but I hesitated before knocking on Elvira's door. "Come in" her cool voice invited me in. Without any more hesitation, I turned the lock and eased the door open. Her office had a strong smell of antiseptic, one that made me gag. "Oh, Maria. I was not expecting you so soon. Is everything okay with you and the baby?" She asked, pointing to the seat in front of her. "I am fine. I've just been having the backache I kept complaining to you about, it seems to be getting worse" I said to her, hoping that she didn't see through me. "Alright. I'll give you a painkiller to help with the pain but it all boils down to you resting and sleeping a lot. You are entering your third trimester, it's the last hur
Veil Of Destiny 35: Uncontrollable Feelings
Alpha Leo's POV My chest was clogged tight when I woke up. I had a dream, a bad one. It was not pleasant at all and even after I had woken up, the fear still carried with me. In that dream, I had seen a silver wolf driving a sword right through my chest. It had felt so real that there was a dull pain right at the spot that the sword had gone right through. "What are you doing awake?" Sophia's voice came to me from the dark, apparently my jerking awake had also woken her up too. "Did I wake you?" I asked, not knowing what else to say since I couldn't tell her the dream I had. "Yes, you did. But that was not the question I asked" she said and I shook my head to rid myself of the thoughts of the dream. It didn't work. "I had a dream. It woke me up. Sorry, that woke you up" I answered and turned my back to her to sleep. "What dream did you have?" She asked and turned on the bedside lamps. I squinted my eyes to adjust to the sudden influx of light in the room. She had sat up and was
Veil Of Destiny 34: A new world
Maria's POV "She must be sent away, I don't care what happens. You have to send her away. I can't believe you would stall in doing this?" I heard Elizabeth's sharp voice. I had followed Alpha Elijah back to the palace because he had forgotten his scepter. It was embarrassing that I had run into them like this, especially since I knew that Elizabeth was talking about him throwing me out of the palace. It was all too much. I wanted to just catch a break and it seemed as if I kept moving from a bad place to worse. It was already enough that I was pregnant for a man who wouldn't even look at me, I had fallen prey to a deranged pervert Alpha who only wanted to do whatever he could to sleep with me. Now, finally, in a place where I should get breathing space, I was still plagued by a woman that I had done absolutely nothing but exist to. "You can't ask me for such a thing. She is under my protection as a pack member now. You should know me better than that" I heard Alpha Elijah's reassu
Veil Of Destiny 33: An Empty Desire
Alpha Felix's POV "What are you doing here?" I barked at Maya as she made her way into my chambers. I had specifically asked the guards not to let anyone in as I wanted to be alone. I had not expected the disappearance of Maria to affect me the way it did. I felt mostly regret, wishing that I had taken what I wanted when it was still within my reach. Now, she was gone and she probably hated me too. "I came to help you." She said and I noticed that her protruding belly was now flat and had lost some of its firmness. "What happened to your pregnancy?" I asked and she smiled sinisterly. "I got rid of it. Figured it was standing in my way, Moreover, I would not want to have the baby of a cheater and a user like Dexter" she said, her tone hard and icy with no sign of remorse. "You got rid of your child?" I asked, refusing to believe this cold-hearted person in front of me. "Don't act so shocked about it. The head maid has done the same for you several times. You must have been too in
Veil Of Destiny 32: A new home
Maria's POV Alpha Elijah had given me my own place and gotten me a job in the clinic. I loved what I did now and hoped that I could start my life afresh here. Elizabeth didn't like me and so far, she made it very clear to me that she didn't like me. I tried to stay away from her as much as possible and even deliberately avoided Alpha Elijah."How are you enjoying the clinic?" Elvira asked me as I made my way to the canteen to have lunch. "It's going on well. I'm really grateful you took me in to work here. I don't think I would have survived anywhere else" I said thankfully and she laughed. "Look, your pregnancy is already 6 months. You need to relax more and work less now. I know you only just started work here and you are supposed to be on probation for the first three months but I am going to ease the burden of work for you. You will still be getting your full pay too" Elvira said and I felt my eyes water with tears. I remembered Maya and how she had been nice to me too before
Veil Of Destiny 31: A Makeup for the Breakup
Alpha Leo's POVThe drive to where I had first met her refused to leave my mind. I couldn't stop thinking about her innocent face and how she had refused to go with me. It wasn't until we got to my pack that I had to grudgingly look forward to being inside her. Going back to those moments now, I wish that I had offered more than the pain she had come to associate with me. "Sir, we are here," my driver said and I looked at my environment to see that we were packed outside Maria's previous house. Her mother had been too eager to sell her off, offering her naive daughter as a breeder for a few thousand of money. It disgusted me now and I kept wondering how I had not thought about this before. I got out of the sleek car, catching a reflection of myself in the window. I looked worn out, and even though I had not been stressing myself and made conscious efforts to rest, the weight loss and stress continued to take their toll on me. Maria's mother was in her living room with two men on e
Veil Of Destiny 30: Finding A New Path
Maria's POV It has been three days since I regained consciousness. So far, everyone has been very kind to me and the Alpha has not shown any signs of being a creep yet. Everything was going smoothly so far, in fact, I was healing so nicely that I could take a stroll by the end of the third day. "How are you doing today?" The alpha asked me and I beamed at him. He has been coming to check on me every day for the past three days. I had even begun to look forward to his visits. "I am doing very well Alpha. Welcome" I said and made to stand up, but he quickly waved his hands at me, motioning for me to not bother doing that. "Thank you. Elvira said you are healing nicely. I take it that you feel the same way?" he asked me, his eyes filled with genuine concern. "Yes, everything is healing nicely. I can barely feel the pain in my head. It comes and goes now" I explained to him, excited to share the details of my day with him. There was how he made me feel, he made me feel safe. It was
Veil Of Destiny 29: Hitting A Rock
Alpha Felix's POV I grabbed her legs, I didn't even wait to think about it before I delved for her. She had some explaining to do and there was no way I would let her get the easy way out. "You are not dying today" I muttered as I removed the rope from her neck and carried her down. She was coughing violently and I could see how red and bulky her eyes were. "Just let me die" she cried but I took her to the chair and carefully strapped her in. She had a lot to tell me and it would be better for her if she just started talking already. Her eyes were filled with shock when I secured her tightly to the chair with the same rope that she had been trying to use to kill herself. "What are you doing?" She asked me, her eyes were clear and devoid of the pitiful demeanor that she had been wearing since Maria escaped from my hands. "I am sure that you are not blind, so you can see what I am doing is tying you to a chair" I responded, my tone cold and calm, almost like I wasn't planning to to
Veil Of Destiny 28: Far from Settled
Alpha Felix's POV I held my head and stomped back to the palace. She had escaped. She had run, after letting that filthy boy pleasure her in the same ways that I had wanted to do. I felt foolish, revealing all my dealings with Dexter to her while she had probably gone behind me to sleep with him. The thought of it gnawed at my heart and the anger refused to stop burning my chest. I should have taken her when I had the chance, even if it had to be by force. "Any luck, Alpha?" Sophie asked me as soon as I got to the palace. She had a bowl of warm water waiting with a towel to wipe the caked blood off my face. "No. Where are all my guards?" I asked her, seeing that the hallway that led to my chambers was empty. "I sent everyone to other parts of the palace. Tonight, I am the only one that will take care of you. They would all be ba...""And what gives you the right to give orders to my guards?" I barked, shocked at her effrontery. "I...I just thought you would want to focus on heal
