The alarm rang at exactly five o'clock in the morning and Julia and I prepared to go to the bathroom to take our bath, until we remembered that we weren't going to have breakfast if we did take our bath.
We were torn between going to the kitchen to work and getting caught for not taking our bath, or going to take out bathe and missing breakfast.
At that moment, both our stomachs growled and we decided to go for breakfast that morning. We wet a rag and cleaned our body with it before changing into the maid's clothes and going to the kitchen.
" Julia, Maya, I need you guys to clean the chef's room before seven this morning, " the head cleaner ordered and we turned to look at her.
" Ma'am, we need to help out in the kitchen, that's where we were assigned to, " I voiced out for the both of us, but got a slap as a reward for it.
" Are you trying to defy my orders? I said
I left the Omega's house without any permission and walked to the house of the higher-ups, going straight to Victor's room as I knew he didn't start work until after breakfast.I knocked on the door and entered inside after being given permission to. He was lying down on the bed, his eyes wide open and I walked to sit on the couch." I'm surprised Serena isn't in your room, " I pointed out." Are you not supposed to be working? Were you given permission to leave when you aren't done working? " He asked, glaring at me." I left without asking for permission. You can report to them if you want to and I'll take my punishment without any complaints, " I responded and he sat up, his eyes never leaving mine." The look in your eyes, I don't like them. You look angry, " he pointed out." Yes, I am very angry and I want to kill someone right now. Funny,
Two weeks had passed and it went easier than expected, at least, I was alive even though I had lost so much weight. Like I demanded, Victor had ordered Sarah to stop the punishment against Julia and I was the only one suffering for it.Beaten five strokes of cane for coming late to work, eating twice a day, punished for every single mistake I made, I managed not to die since I was doing all that because I wanted to survive.I wasn't given dinner again today because Serena complained of dirt where I cleaned. I went to my room and saw that Julia was already there, laying down on her bed and a plate of food was on my bed." Eat that, I managed to steal it from the chefs, " she told me and I picked up the plate and placed it on the table." Why would you do that? What if you got caught? " I scolded and she smiled at me." C'mon, Maya, we did this a lot whe
" I think I might be pregnant, " I admitted in between cries. His eyes widened in hearing what I said and he instantly pulled me inside, closing the door as he engulfed me in a hug.I cried on his shoulders, unsure of what I was going to do if my assumptions were correct. Unsure of how I was going to survive with the pup of an Alpha inside of me" Are you sure about what you're saying? " He asked and I showed him the glowing mark on my shoulder for confirmation, as well as my reddened palms.He let out a shaky breath as he went to sit down on the couch, using his palms to rub his face." And you want to run away? " He asked again and I went closer to him, nodding my head. There was no way I was going to let my child be born in the kind of suffering Victor was giving me." He wouldn't believe me if I told him he was the father of the baby. There is no n
" You're pregnant? " She asked loudly and I put a finger on her lips, indicating for her to be quiet before nodding. " For Alpha Victor's baby? " She asked again, this time in a hushed whisper and I nodded again." Wow! What a sickening plot twist this is, " she commented and I giggled, placing a hand over my mouth. " So, what do you plan on doing? You can never tell him about the baby, " she stated." That's why Gabriel and I are planning to run away from this pack. We're going to his mother's side in Australia, " I informed her and she bit her lower lip." Is that not risky? If the both of you get caught, it will surely not be a good thing. We don't make decisions that affect us, right? But you seem to be doing that lately, " she pointed out." That's because I'm trying to protect the people I love. I can't think of myself right now, staying in this pack with a baby mean
VICTOR BLOODBORNEA knock was heard on the door while Uncle Unkar and I were having a conversation. After a ' come in ' from me, my guard came inside the office, bowing at us." Alpha, we have some unusual movement from Beta Gabriel, " he informed me and I glanced at my Uncle before turning back to him." What unusual movement? " I asked him." I'm not really sure, but he seems to be doing something discreetly. He is being very sly with it and that's what made me suspect something, " he replied and nodded slowly, rolling my tongue inside my cheeks." Look into it, and get back to me if you find anything useful, " I ordered and he bowed again before walking away." What is Gabriel up to? " Uncle Unkar asked and I shrugged, there was no way I was to know about it." I'm going to find out, " I responded.
VICTOR BLOODBORNESerena and I were having wine in the dining room, talking and reminiscing over the past when a guard ran inside the room panting heavily." What the hell is wrong with you?" Serena scolded, eyeing him with contempt and he bowed in apology." I'm sorry, Alpha, Gamma, but I have urgent news for the both of you, " he said and Serena glanced at me before turning back to look at him, motioning for him to speak up." Beta Gabriel has been confirmed dead, " he announced and Serena stood up abruptly, her eyes widening in surprise. I raised my head to look at him to see if there was any hint of a lie in his eyes, but there was none. He wouldn't even dare to lie about something like that." How the hell did that happen? He was fine when I saw him this morning, " Serena asked him." He was shot twice in the chest by an arrow
" What did you just say? " He bellowed, but I stood straight, not willing to back off from the fight I had started." You heard me well Victor, I am declaring my intentions. You messed with the wrong person and I am going to prove that to you, " I assured. He pushed me to a wall, pinning my chest with his elbow." How dare you? " He growled at me. " Wife or not, I am your Alpha, you don't get to challenge my authority, ".I wanted to talk, but what came out from my mouth was blood, spilling on his arms. His angry look was taken over by surprise and fear, releasing me instantly. The mark had begun to overpower me and like Gabriel said, I was already losing blood because of the baby." What is this? " He asked, pointing at the blood on his arms." It's none of your business, " I uttered, averting my gaze from him." Nothing? Blood sp
" No, " I informed, but she shook her head. There was no way I would let her put her life at risk after I had managed to secure it for her." I'm not going to let you do this alone, Maya, " she informed me, but I shook my head also." We've talked about this, why are you trying to back off on your word now? "." I said so because I felt you were in safe hands with Gabriel if you left the pack. Now, he's dead, I cannot stay here while you try to endanger your life. We are doing this together, " she insisted, reminding me of Gabriel's death again. My eyes got teary, but I blinked furiously to send the tears back." And I said no, Julia, why can't you listen to me? " I snapped at her, raising my voice slightly." I'm not going to listen to you this time around since you're not listening to me about your revenge. We have been stuck with each other si
