It was going to be a huge party and a sophisticated one at that, the whole place was busy with maids going about making sure everything was set. They were not exactly doing anything, just monitoring what Ariel was doing.Ariel was in the dining room, cleaning the tables and chairs and setting them perfectly for the guests. She looked around the big dining room and wondered how she would be able to finish cleaning it and setting it up before the Alphas arrived.She wished somebody could come and help her with the chore at least because she was so worked out. As she may have had it, a little luck shone on her and a girl who was one of the servants, came to assist her.Ariel felt so happy, as she saw the girl come in. She couldn't remember her name, but she knew she had seen her often in the kitchen while she was doing the dishes.Ariel walked towards the girl to try to start up a conversation, at least she was her helper.“Hello, I'm Ariel,” she said, smiling, trying to stir up a convers
In tears, she walked into her room. She couldn’t help but think about how she’d cope with such treatment for the rest of her life. She sniffled, as she wiped her tears before shutting the door behind her. Ariel knew she had to get used to this sort of treatment, as there was no one to even help her.She knew there would be no one to stand up for her, but deep down, she wanted someone to. She wanted someone that would always take a stand for her, someone who would punish anyone who dared to say shameless things about her, but sadly, she had no one.Remembering all these, tears streamed down her cheeks. She remembered all the shameless words those alphas had spoken about her and worst of it all, they didn’t say it behind her, they’d said it right in front of her.Didn’t they think she’d have feelings? Did they not think she was a creature who had the right to feel bad whenever such things were sad about her? She slid to the ground in tears. All she wanted was to live a decent life, one,
Alpha Damien stormed towards the person he hated most in the world—Ariel.He wanted to torture her, torture her so much that, she would feel pain that, even he, had never felt before. He wanted to punish and torture her to the extent that, she would beg him to kill her. Likewise, he wanted her to feel a pulsing type of pain never experienced before, so much that his heart ached, and he felt a blinding anger taking over him, consuming his whole body.His eyes blazed red with fury, as he looked at her. He was so close to her now that he could scent her fear. It permeated the surrounding air, cloying to the entire environment like a leech. The pathetic girl cowered before Alpha Damien, her head bowed down so much that it touched her chest and her body was trembling, trembling so much that it seemed as if she had been thrown into a magnetic field.He grinned to himself because of the effect he was having on her. He was very well aware of the sheer terror that was being presented to her. It
Getting out of the room, she was met by a huge gathering of the pack members. She stared forward to see why everyone gathered. It’s probably one of those impromptu meetings. The Alpha, Damien, walked down majestically from the stairs, his composure was grandly towering, as if he wasn’t the one that nearly strangled her minutes ago. He had some Beta wolves, who served as guards behind him. He glared around the room, as he suspiciously scrutinised everyone.Ariel could almost swear when his eyes met with hers in an unfriendly manner, he let out a scowl, and frowned. She sighed because she was the least happy person in that room, who craved his presence.“I would be leaving today for a trip,” he said rather briefly, catching everyone off-guard.Ariel was not aware when she let out a sigh, no it wasn't just a sigh, it was a breath of relief. She had let out an obvious breath of relief, causing everyone to ominously shift their gaze upon her for a second.She prayed instantly the ground wou
Ariel caressed her cheeks that stung like hell. The metallic tang of blood filled her mouth, and she resisted the urge to spit it in the head cook's face. It would earn her another slap and while she prided in her perseverance, it was not an excellent idea.She stomped across the dark marbled floors of the mansion, thinking of several creative ways she could poison both Damien and the head maid. Though, it would be pretty obvious if she used poison. They would trace it back to her. She thought about grinding glass as an ingredient in their food and decided against it. They would definitely trace the deaths back to her.They already thought she was something she wasn't. It would not be hard to pin it all on her.Stupid mansion. Stupid head maid. Stupid Alpha. She thought.Her thoughts wandered to that night, that moment everything had gone to hell. That moment, something deep and powerful had taken a strong hold within her. A bond so strong, it had caused her knees to buckle. Her heart
Ariel was a bit surprised, as to why they were being called into the corridor again because the head had told them three days ago that they would not be called to the corridor any more.They were always called into the corridor for only two things. One, to inspect them carefully for any form of sicknesses or if they were in any bad state, and the second one, was to make sure that all the slaves were still around and no one had run away.They had been doing this for a while, but Ariel didn't know why she felt weird today. She felt like going into the corridor was going to put her into some trouble or as if something bad was going to happen to her.The only time something bad had happened when they went to the corridor, was when one of her fellow slaves, Emma, was pregnant; she didn't know about it, until they went for their normal inspection.Ariel could still hear her screams as she was being dragged away. She shivered as the memory creeped back into her head.She looked around, and sh
Zane~His body arched from pains continuously and he could not help it. He knew what was going on and happening. The mate bond between him and Ariel is making him feel all the pains she’s feeling, making it hard for him to concentrate on his business trip. He decided to put a call through to Courtney.Courtney picked at the first ring. Not like she dare make screen his call or make it ring twice.“I’d be coming home soon” he said over the phone and dropped the call, not giving her a chance to reply. Who cares about her opinion?Alex, his better who has been wondering what was going on. They had postponed a lot of their meetings with their business partners due to Damien’s lack of ability to concentrate. They even lot some of the great deals. Curiosity got the best part of him so he asked, “What’s going on?’“Start packing, we’re leaving’ was all he got as a reply. Alex wasn’t surprised, he knows the Alpha well ******The maids in the kitchen all erupted in hysterical laughter, laughin
Every delicacy was laid on the table, and they were arranged so beautifully that merely staring at it would make you feel hungry all over again.Ranging from veggie meals—to non veggie meals. Everything was on the table, and it was so mouthwatering, that even the head maid, Courtney, couldn’t believe that it could ever look so beautiful.The maids in the corridor could only lick their lips in salivation, they all wanted the food, but they couldn’t have it, and they could only dream of having the leftovers. Staring at the food, they held onto their stomachs, their stomachs were rumbling now, as they were presently starving from having to stare at such magnificence in front of them.“I wish I was a royal one,” one of the maids told another.“If your reason for wanting to be royal is the same as mine… trust me… You’re not wrong,” she replied, and they continued standing there.Other maids were also discussing how they wished they were given the chance to have a taste of the delicacies, bu
