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

Alpha Damon, Master Ralph

The first thing that scared Isabella was the fact that she hadn't knocked yet before the invitation to come in. The second was the voice that sent shivers down her spine. She took in air that would be sufficient for her stay in the room before slowly pushing the door and stepping in. She found herself in another world. The room was darker than the corridor, and more spacious. Everything screamed of masculinity: the dark walls, comfy sofas at all corners of the room, dark-brown curtains that completely kept out light, a king-sized bed by the left, and a scent she couldn't discern. Somewhere in the pack, a sentry gave out orders, shouting at the top of his voice. It was followed by the faint gallop of horses. All the sounds and voices seemed to be coming from miles away. The lack of sufficient illumination did not deter Isabella from glimpsing the silhouette of the figure sitting on the bed with his back against the headboard. "Isabella, hope I got that right?" The voice ag

Isabella

Ralph clicked his tongue as he stood at the entrance of the dark corridor where Damon's room was located. "What the hell does he want again?" he grumbled under his breath and quietly walked to the door, ensuring his feet did not make annoying sounds—as the alpha told them. Ralph did not bother knocking. His scent was probably noticed from the top of the stairs anyway. "You seem to be slacking..." Ralph took a whiff of the room's warmth before frowning, "What?" A sigh followed the ruffle of sheets. "You used to be so quick on your feet, so fast whenever I called for you." Ralph could not deny that. For so long, he had been Damon's friend and Beta, and had also been the one to execute most of Damon's physical orders. The weight of such responsibility didn't give room for leniency—or sluggishness. "I know I've been... weak for some time now. I'm sorry, Damon." Ralph exhaled and looked at the floor. "I will ensure that I—" "For how long have we known each other?" In the darkn

Close to the alpha

"What are you talking about?" Isabella frowned. She looked at the beautiful stretch of workers' buildings. She wasn't going to stay in one of those? They looked so comfy! "You won't be staying here," Margaux voiced out the young lady's thoughts. "It seems Alpha Damon wants direct contact when he needs you. Come with me." Isabella could swear that she saw a glint of confusion in Margaux's eyes. They walked back to the mansion with Isabella getting curious looks from some of the guards stationed in the pack. Isabella found herself inside the large mansion again. Together, they walked up the stairs. Like it had been the first time, Isabella's heartbeat increased. The feeling of fear that washed over her wasn't one she could control. When they had gone halfway up the stairs, Margaux stopped walking and turned back. "There are some rules you must abide by, and Master Ralph said he will personally lay them out to you." Rules again? Why so many rules? And why Master Ralph?

"Call me Ralph..."

Isabella gasped and turned, wide-eyed, to the centre table where the sound seemed to be coming from. The first thought that jumped into her mind was how mad her neighbour (the alpha) was going to be. The sound suddenly stopped. Isabella tried to decipler how imaginary it was when it felt like the entire pack became pin-drop silent. There was a telephone on the table, decorated with blue petals that matched the colour of the room. Isabella stood rooted to the spot. She had almost gotten a heart attack! With a sigh of relief, she palmed her chest. Another shrill ring came again, jolting her like it had done before. That was the point reality dawned. The phone was going to continue ringing until someone picked it, or until it had exhausted the ringing timeframe. And the alpha was going to call her like he had done, this time, with the intention of sending her out of his house while raining brimstones from heaven for disturbing the peace of his serene afternoon. Isabealla's f

The wizard, Albus

... IT WILL HELP TO KEEP YOUR HEAD SAFE ON YOUR NECK... That part of the sentence echoed in Isabella's mind again and again and again until she could hear the words engraving themselves into the walls of her memory. "... I'm not trying to scare you..." Of course not! Isabella wasn't scared, was she? She was just... What was the word? Shaken? Yes, she was shaken to her core and scared—very scared. "... You don't seem like the type to stay out at night, so I think it will be pretty easy for you..." Isabella swallowed. She moved her head up and brought it down, nodding twice, slowly. Ralph's attention was more focused on the beauty of the lady before him, else he would have seen the fear in her eyes, and the obvious second-thoughts swarming around her head in invisible wips of smoke. "At exactly twelve at night, nobody moves, at least, for the entirety of that period. The rule also applies early in the morning by four. Trust me, this law is the most important." Isabella wishe

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

"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

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

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
