All Chapters of Alpha's Breeder/ An Omega's Lament: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

*Jane*With widened eyes, I gazed at Mara, but she appeared more engrossed in her own words, oblivious to my stunned expression.“Your King appears quite harsh…” I murmured quietly, my words barely escaping my chewing mouth.“Huh? I think I missed what you said,” she mutter,I quickly shook my head, denying, “No, I didn't say anything.”Avoiding her gaze, I began to slowly sip my wine. I must admit, the deep red hue suggested a superior quality, and the taste alone was rich and satisfying.“Besides that incident involving King Damon, there have been more and more troubling events,” she muttered.“Is that right?”I couldn't think of anything else to say. True, what Mara had just recounted was somewhat unsettling, but then again, they were just words; I hadn't witnessed anything firsthand.Soon after, I noticed Mara, who had been chatting earlier, had suddenly fallen silent. Confused, I lifted my head to look at her, only to be met with her hesitant expression."What's troubling you? Is

*Jane*I watched as Mara excitedly moved forward to stand next to me."What's with this energetic demeanor?" I inquired, with my eyes on her."Nothing much, just thrilled to show you around," she responded, almost immediately.Upon hearing her words, I couldn't help but feel curious. With my gaze fixed on her, I asked, "Have you never given a tour before?"Her enthusiasm and constant clinging to me raised suspicions about whether I was the first person she would be touring around the castle to.Her next words confirmed my suspicions. "Um, not really. My tasks in the castle before your arrival were minor cleanings and such. But a day before you arrived, Sir Zeeb surprised me by saying I would be your personal maid.""Oh," I glanced at her, feeling somewhat uneasy, with questions swirling within me.She changed the subject and hurried over to the shoe section. I watched as she selected a pair of flat slippers and brought them over to me."Here, put these on," she said, bending down to f

*Jane*I furrowed my brow deeply, my expression clearly showing my displeasure. Yet, despite my obvious irritation, I didn't feel any need to rise and engage with the continuous chattering woman before me.Cool and composed, I turned to face Mara, who was standing nearby. "What are your thoughts about this orchid flower? I imagine you must appreciate its beauty as well."Even though I was aware that Mara didn't appear particularly interested in any flower I might be gesturing towards, I couldn't resist asking her. And that was just to divert from attending to the female and to prompt her departure.It was best for me to stay on my line, in this new environment. I didn't want any issue, so avoiding any problem was what's in my mind."Hey, are you deaf or just plain ignorant?" The woman's voice grew sharper, indicating her growing impatience.With a resigned sigh, I realized she was indeed seeking my attention; otherwise, why would she persist when I was simply ignoring her?As I contem

*Jane*I was acutely aware of the struggle it took to suppress the overwhelming urge to yawn. The battle was arduous.Despite my inner turmoil, the girl before me seemed oblivious, engrossed in her chatter. I could only ceaselessly roll my eyes and curse her inwardly. Very irritating!"Are you following me?" she chirped, assuming an authoritative demeanor; like that of a boss speaking to his worker.I didn't have time to think much about her attitude, and instead muttered. “Yes,” I nodded, even if my mind wasn't actually listening to her.Yet, there was one thing I grasped from her words, even if I never wanted to, and that was, Alpha Damon never wanted to take me as his Luna. It wasn't that I wasn't aware that he could never fancy a person like me, but why do I feel bitter hearing her say it.Getting a nod from me, she smiled, appearing, a little satisfied. “That's reassuring. It's better to know your place.”Watching her looking happy and proudful, I asked. “Why are you saying all

*Damon*I observed as Adira approached the grumbling and despondent Emily, gently grasping her shoulder. "Who's that girl? Doesn't she realize who you are?""Mom," Emily whimpered."Let's take a moment to calm down, and then you can tell me who she is. I know you well enough to understand that you don't just dislike people for no reason, so it must be something the girl did." Adira comforted Emily with a reassuring pat on the back.Receiving no immediate response from Emily, Adira gestured towards the sofa in the hall. "Come, let's sit down first."Uninterested in listening to Emily's complaints, I flashed a smile at Alpha Ryker. "I'll be heading upstairs now."Alpha Ryker offered no objection, simply nodding. Just as I turned to leave, I caught sight of Zeeb.Zeeb glanced at me, sighing softly. "Shouldn't you wait and see until they leave?"I rolled my eyes, dismissing his suggestion. "Why should I stick around?"The continuous chatter of the mother and daughter grated on my nerves f
