Andrea’s POVI wasembarrassed to see everyone in formal dress, and I was in maid’s apron.I thought Iam used to be the slave in the pack. I was not in front of Alpha Enzo. He wasdifferent.Slaves werenot allowed to have any eye contact with masters and guests. I didn’t even knowhow taunting he would be seeing me doing my slave job. He must behappy that he was not marrying a shameful slave like me."Andrea,"Melissa called me suddenly.I had a badfeeling instantly.I walked toher side, and my head was still bent low. I didn’t dare irritate her in thissituation."I wantto drink that wine," Melissa said, pointing to the wine on the otherside of the table.I nodded,then walked around the table to bring the bottle of wine over. Then, I bentdown to pour a glass slowly for Melissa.Unexpectedly,Melissa brought her hand up to touch the stem of the wine glass, then seeminglyswept the glass off the table unintentionally.The glasscrashed to the ground and shattered into pieces
Andrea's POVI wasshocked. What was he talking about? He reachedout to touch my hair, I frowned and leaned back away from me. Iwithdrew my hand hesitantly and instead said, "Can I stay with you? Do youwant me to stay with you?"I can’t sayI don’t. I wanted him to stay."I canturn into a wolf. I definitely won't do anything to you in that state."Mywolf's name is Ethan. It's very docile."Isthat okay?"I heard himsay. He was so patient, so comforting. I didn’t refuse.He startedto undo his shirt and tie. I was astounded to see his sun-tanned bare chest andperfect abs, didn’t know what to do.My eyeswiden at him loosening his belt, held my knees tighter to my chest. Usually,Alpha Michael undressing himself means he’s going to beat me with his belt.That hurts."No,wait! Because turning into a wolf will shred my clothes... I didn't mean tostart taking them off in front of you! I..."His voicereminded me that I was safe now. And I was a little embarrassed now looking at
Andrea's POVMybiological clock always woke me up at half-past five every morning, since I hadto get up to clean the house and prepare breakfast for Alpha Michael's family,Today, whenI got up from the mattress, my leg brushed against something soft and furry.I rubbed myeyes and saw a solid black wolf tail. I quickly remembered what happened lastnight and tried my best to hold back a shameful scream."You'reawake?"A low,hoarse voice floated into my ear, and I jerked around to meet thosegolden-brown, cloudy eyes.The giantwolf had also woken up, seemingly tired.He got upfrom the ground and walked over to me. He circled my back, then reached out torub my neck like it was the most natural thing. Then, he wrapped his bodyaround my waist and placed his head on my thigh."Goback to sleep..." he said blearily.I wasstunned speechless.I wanted topush him away and run, but he simply licked the back of my hand with his roughtongue and said, "Stop it.""..."Why did thiswolf
Instead of wearinga tie and suit like he did yesterday, Enzo wore a white shirt and had casuallyrolled up his sleeves to his elbow. The top two buttons of his shirt were alsounfastened, and even his hair was brought back behind his head casually.Hisappearance was obviously messy, but I thought he looked handsome.I forcedmyself to look away again, trying to ignore his presence as much as possible.I needed tohave the entire villa cleaned spotless by seven in the morning, and thenbreakfast ready by eight.I had toprepare two extra portions for breakfast today. One was for Beta Kyle from theCold Moon Pack, and one was for the man beside me.Others fromthe Cold Moon Pack were visiting, but only Alpha Enzo and his Beta lived here.I startedcleaning the stair's railing while Enzo leaned against it to watch me.I tried toignore his eyes on me, but it was tough.Why did hehave to stand there and stare at me? Didn't he have things to do? Was it fun orpleasing to watch me work?
I could feelthe Beta aura from him. He must be Enzo's Beta, Kyle Larsen."That'sa pity," Kyle said as he sighed. "Enzo was just talking about howmuch he was looking forward to eating it. Me too."I wasstunned, and I looked over at Melissa.Melissa'spretty eyebrows knitted together, but she smiled at me after a few seconds."Better make those blueberry pancakes then. Since Alpha Enzo wants them,of course, we'll make sure he gets them."Then, sheturned around, nodded at Kyle, then left the kitchen.Kyleinclined his head and greeted her. After Melissa left, he winked at me beforemouthing, "No need to thank me, alpha sent me here."I gave him agrateful smile, then let out a relieved sigh before going back to my work.Duringbreakfast, Enzo had changed into a casual outfit that was surprisingly similarto what Melissa was wearing. One could mistake them for being a couple'soutfit, even.I've neverbeen a sensitive person, but the man who gave me a night of accompany ismatching
The crushingpressure on the back of my foot was so painful that it traveled through mybody. Cold sweat crept out on the back of my neck.However, thepain I felt did not all come from that. Part of the pain came from my heart.The moreMelissa hurt me, the more my heart hurt.For 19years, I've treated her as my salvation. She was reason I still held hope tothis world, and now that reason was gone.Our 20 yearsof friendship was nothing compared to a man.I feltbetrayed.I glanced atMelissa. She hadn't bothered to disguise the malice or hatred in her eyes. Fora moment, I felt that she had deliberately created a false sense of friendshipbetween us. In fact, she had never once regarded me as a friend.I suddenlyremembered that a few days ago, when I was scrubbing the floor, Melissa hadtold Ellen to let me take her place in this marriage and that she didn't wantto marry that devil. That Enzo wasn't good enough for her anyway and that I wasjust their slave and it would be more
It wasn'tuntil I got into the car that I suddenly realize what’s going on and struggledto get out.I hadn'tforgotten Melissa's warning. She would definitely kill me!I sat upfrom the passenger seat and was about to open the door."Okay,stop it," Enzo stroked my hair.I turned toglare at him, then tried to open the door once more."Andrea."Enzo suddenly leaned over and pressed his body over mine.I held mybreath instantly. I didn't even dare to exhale.He looked atme, his eyes tracing over my eyebrows, skimming over my nose and mouth, andcontinued downward...It felt likehe was undressing me with his eyes!"Don'ttry to run away from them again," Enzo said in a low, hoarse voice. "OrI’ll mark you here."I didn'tdare to move anymore. He smiled lightly and buckled my seat belt for me, thengot up to drive the car.He wasgentle and sometimes even childish, but those things didn't change the factthat he's still an Alpha. More often than not, he was domineering andstraightfo
Melissa’svoice scared me out.They wereoverall my ‘masters.’ I had no right to make any decisions on myself when theyhad my life as a sinner who killed my mother.And Enzowon’t let me go.“Whomind-linked you, let me guess, Melissa? I can tell that you like me, then don’tbother thinking of what that bitch says.He groundedhis teeth before continuing, "You are with me now, not the asshole’sfamily. I’ll deal with them for you and now if you dare to turn your back onme, I’ll mark you here."The more hespoke, the more worked up he got, and he gradually ignored the distance betweenus.He got downon one knee and took my hand, his hot breath spraying on my cheek."I wantto mark you. I want to make you mine. I want you to bathe in my scene for therest of your life. I want you to think of me and long for me all thetime."He strokedmy face and said, "That's the treasure I want the most."I wasstunned.All thethings he wanted to do to me were exactly the same as what I wanted to
