Gwen’s POVMy heart was pounding with both anger and disbelief as I stared at Nora, who stood in front of me as she came into my room. I could still hear the echoes of the slap in my mind, and Aurelia’s cheek bore the red mark of Nora’s hand. "Why did you slap her?" I asked with a quiver in my voice.Nora folded her arms, squeezing her face she said. "I asked her to do my laundry, and she didn't do it right. I found some of my clothes burnt. She said had washed and ironed them properly without them getting burnt, but I know she's lying."Aurelia who was kneeling as she helped me buckle my sandals, shook her head vehemently. I never said that Nora. I did do your laundry, I washed the clothes and ironed them properly with no incident, maybe someone else did that to your clothes. Nora’s eyes narrowed as she stepped closer to Aurelia. "You are lying," she uttered. “I asked you specifically to handle them and now you are trying to blame someone else for your incompetence.”Aurelia’s

Gwen's POV As I entered his chamber, Alpha Blake said he was still a bit preoccupied with a situation concerning the pack and that he would send to me as soon as he was free. I went back to my room. To say I was fuming was an understatement to what I was feeling currently, I kept pacing back and forth in my room, clenching my fit and jaw and stamping my foot repeatedly. How could he have just snubbed me and not even listened to what I had to say? Will he seriously believe Nora over me? I can't believe Nora could frame such a pathetic lie against me in the blink of an eye. Oh geez! All my assumptions about her are so true! My anger was simmering beneath the surface and was just waiting to explode in everyone's face. The fact he didn't even give me a chance to dispute the lies arranged by Nora just makes me want to stick my hand into their faces! The little words he said still sting as I think about it further, how could he believe her over me? That I will call her names? He doubted

Blake's POVWhat the hell just happened? I was so confused as my inside gnawed at me, I stared at Gwen's closed door like it was going to give me the answer I needed. I paced in the hallway wondering why the sudden change in her. She even pushed me out of her room with the most disgusting look I have ever seen on her face. Something was wrong and I couldn't point a finger to why she suddenly became distant. She wasn't like this yesterday when she was warm and open but why the sudden act of shutting me out completely? Did she need space? I was going to give her that, so I went to my study where I had pending issues concerning the pack. My mind was settled so I left and tried to talk to Gwen again but her behavior was just something else. “Gwen!” I called out as I saw her cross towards the garden with her maids by her side but she did like she didn't hear me and just ignored me completely. I can't take this! I followed her into the garden calling her way but immediately she sighted m

Gwen’s POVBlake stood in his office. He felt a mix of frustration and annoyance. Nora's words from earlier that day echoed in his mind. Despite his doubts about her story, a small part of him was irritated by the thought that there might be some truth to it. He thanked Nora and watched her leave the room with a smug expression on her face. It gnawed at him. He couldn’t pinpoint why he felt so unsettled.I strolled through the palace park my mind swirling with a mix of emotions. The evening air was cool and crisp. I sought solace in the tranquil beauty of the surroundings. I had spent the day mulling over the conversation I had overheard between Alpha Blake and Nora. My heart was heavy with hurt and confusion. The lush gardens and serene atmosphere usually brought me peace. But, today they felt like a cruel reminder of the turmoil I was experiencing.It stung that he seemed to be putting so much trust into the other woman Nora, rather than trusting me which left me with ling

Gwen’s POV “Blake that explained he was talking about my maids. He wasn't talking about me."My eyes flashed open with a sudden surge of surprise, and I felt a bolt of embarrassment. “Oh, Blake, I'm so sorry for the misunderstanding," I said, my voice trembling slightly. “I didn't mean to jump to conclusions. I just. It hurt to think that you didn't trust me."Alpha Blake smiled softly and reached for my hand, assuring me. "It's okay, Gwen. I understand why you felt that way. Trust is important, and I never want you to doubt how much I care about you."The incertitude somehow left my mind. "Thank you, Alpha Blake. I should have talked to you instead of keeping my feelings bottled up."Alpha Blake nodded, his eyes softening. “ communication is key, you have to remember, Gwen. We both have to remember that."We started walking together comfortably slow and leisurely. The evening air was cool and the pack’s garden was serene. With every step, I took, I felt the tension in my body

Gwen's POV “Oh my goodness, it was just a dream!” I uttered to myself as I tried to calm my nerves and my racing thoughts. I was still in disbelief that it was all a dream. If I hadn't woken up I would have believed my life was a dream.I gasped for breath, holding my heart which was pounding hard in my chest. I just had a vivid, real life dream. It felt so real I thought I was experiencing it. Because of how vivid and life-experiencing the dream was, I still remembered everything in my head. I had dreamt about Nora, why her? Why was she whispering to the hooded figure who seemed to be in a shadowy castle? What secret was she passing away? About what or who in particular? I needed answers.The figure had handed her a small pouch after she was done whispering which I suggested contained some monetary valued items. She had looked around before pocketing the pouch with a wide sky smile on her face.A feeling of uneasiness broke within me as I wiped a train of sweat beaded on my forehea

Gwen's POV I got out of the cab with a racing heart as I hurried but discreetly made my way into the pack house. The sun was beginning to rise at this moment and there was life to the pack house as some maids and guards were up and going about. I knew I needed to tell Blake what I had seen and discovered about Nora but as I got to the center of the palace, I looked down on myself and realized I wasn't looking my best for me to appear before him. I needed to change, compose, and make myself presentable. I quickly slipped to my room, the plan was to have a quick bath, dress up, and talk to Blake then I could come back and have a proper bath. I called for Aurelia and Elgiva after putting Elgiva's clothes away. “I need a quick shower and change of outfits. I need to see Alpha Blake immediately!” I said to them breathlessly as they nodded attentively and started running about, doing their tasks. Aurelia went for the bath while Elgiva went into my closet and brought out a fresh dress wh

Gwen’s POVWith evening beckoning, Blake approached me, the smile on his face made my heart skip a few beats. “Gwen," he said in a low voice, "would you like to go out on a date tonight?"My eyes were bright with excitement. "I would love that, Alpha Blake."He grinned, obviously pleased with what I had said. "Great. Get ready Gwen, and I'll be waiting."I rushed to my room. My heart was racing with the anticipation of being on a date with Alpha Blake. Her two maids, Aurelia and Elgiva, always attentive, watched her in excitement and set to work to help her prepare. They picked out a beautiful dress that shimmered and glittered with every move, it was very elegant, a soft shade of blue, which brought out my eyes to make me feel like a princess.They both helped me into the dress, and I couldn't help but stare at myself in the mirror. "Do I look good?" I asked again, with a thread of nervousness in my voice.Elgiva smiled reassuringly and said"You look stunning, lady Gwen. Alpha

Gwen’s POVThey immediately called a doctor from the neighboring pack to come and attend to Nora. Alpha Blake never left her side while she lay there, extremely worried about her condition. He caught me in the hallway, my eyes were filled with questions."Gwen, I am sorry," he said, full of remorse. "We will have to cancel our date for tonight. Nora needs immediate medical attention."I forced a smile, though inside an insurmountable well of disappointment roared. "I understand, Alpha Blake. She needs you right now. We can always do it some other time.""Thank you for understanding. I promise we will have that night."I nodded, my eyes on Blake as he quickened his pace back to Nora. I was feeling annoyed, frustrated, and deeply disappointed. I had been looking forward to this evening all along, and now everything just seemed to be falling apart.I returned to my room and tried to rid myself of the negative thoughts. My maids, noticing my mood, hurriedly surrounded me with their

Gwen’s POVI tried my best to keep it cool while watching Nora so close to Alpha Blake. I took a deep breath and tried to remain cool and calm while I stepped closer to Alpha Blake, meaning to get some answers."Alpha Blake," I finally called out, my tone tight and dripping with emotion. "Can we talk for a minute?"Alpha Blake was surprised by my tone as he looked up. "Of course, Gwen. What is it?"I motioned towards Nora, still lying with her head on Alpha Blake's lap. "Do you really think she was poisoned? Or do you think she might be faking it?" I whispered.Alpha Blake carefully shifted Nora's head to the pillow and got to his feet. He looked at me and said. "Gwen, why should she lie about a thing like this? I've known Nora for a long while, and she wouldn't be lying about this."I tightened my fists and struggled to keep my cool. "But how can you be so sure? People can be deceitful, even those we think we trust and know pretty well."Alpha Blake's brow furrowed as he stepped
