MOSES'S POV"I believe you don't eat with your eyes, do you?" I asked as I watched her sitting there and staring at her food instead of eating.She looked up at me with the same fright that she had had in her eyes all night.I was not even acting scary, and she was already scared. What on earth would I do with this girl?Despite my reminder, she still sat there staring at me like I had spoken a foreign language that she had not been taught how to speak."Eat up," I said again, this time in the nicest voice I could muster.Only then did she pick up her spoon and start eating with shaky hands.Why had she looked so fierce the first day I had seen her at her father's palace? She had even slapped a maid that day, but here she was looking like she could not even hurt a fly. She looked so innocent, like a little lamb that should stick to its shepherd all day long because it needed protection from external attacks, but back then in her house when I had first seen her, she looked like the at
HILDA'S POVI was still limping, and it was all because of that stupid maid that had tampered with my toe the other day. I suddenly felt like the slap I had given to her that day was not enough at all, I would have done more than that to her.I made up my mind that I would teach her a lesson for what she did to me by punishing her, so I sent for her while I sat on my bed and started nursing my injured toe.While I was nursing my toe, I suddenly felt like I was hearing sounds of chaos from outside the house.I stood up and limped to the window in order to see what was going on, but I could not see much from my window."What is going on outside?" I asked the maid who I had earlier sent for when she came into my room."It seems like we are under attack my princess," she said in fear, I could already notice that she was tense, and I became tense too on hearing that.This had been a major occurrence for us in recent times, and that was the major reason my father had entered into that agree
MOSES'S POV By the time I arrived at Alpha Daniel's pack, I met everywhere calm as if nothing of battle had occurred as my right-hand man had told me, and I wondered why everywhere was silent.Louis met with some warriors we had sent earlier before our arrival, and he told me the rogues had run away immediately after they heard they were from my pack. They gave up the fight and retreated immediately, and I was not surprised because that was exactly what I wanted. Fear at the mention of my name, and this brought a smile to my face."I hope they did not do a lot of damage?" I asked one of my men."Not really, but as now they had all dispersed, they ran away as soon as they saw us."I shook my head in approval. That is how it is supposed to always be, they are supposed to fear all the time.Even though the rogues had respected themselves and ran away, I still wanted to teach them a lesson and make it known to them that they should not dare to attack a pack that was now under my protect
HILDA'S POV"Are you out of your mind?" My mum asked, looking at me with wide eyes as if I had just spoken something that should never be uttered."But mum," I insisted. "I am only going there to check how she is doing, and also to make sure that she is not bringing a bad name to our family and kingdom.""Well... That is not something you should worry about, my dear Hilda." My father said, placing a hand on my shoulder. "After all, Alpha Moses said she is doing well, so we should not be bothered."I narrowed my eyes as I remembered Alpha Moses's smile when he had talked about Matilda, and that kept appearing in my mind and got me even more pissed. I felt like shouting at my parents that instant, but I decided to keep my cool, I had to keep pretending to be the perfect child, while they see Matilda as the bad child."But we can't count on his words' dad, he could easily have said that for whatever reason," I said calmly with a droopy body."Matilda dear, I have no idea why you are insi
MATILDA'S POVI sat still on the table after I watched him leave angrily together with his right-hand man.For the first few moments, I was confused and scared at the same time. Why would he just walk out on me like that after staring at me without even saying anything to me?I was relieved that whatever he must have heard that got him upset was not about me after all, even though I still wondered why he had stared at me. If it was about me, he would have accosted me, right?I picked up my spoon and continued eating, this time around more comfortably because I was aware that he was not there, and he was not watching me eat.At least there was no pair of fierce blue eyes looking at me from across the table.I ate comfortably and devoured the food like the hungry person that I was, I did not care about the maids who were watching me. I was sure that they would have known that he was the reason I had refused to eat all along. Even though deep down, there was a pit in my stomach. I could
MATILDA'S POVI made up my mind to ignore the scream and go back to my room, after all, it was none of my business, and I was not even supposed to be outside my room in the first place. I started heading back to my room when I heard the sound again, this time around even more loudly. It seemed like she was calling for help.I looked around the hallway, but there was no one close by to help whomever it was that needed help, I was the only one, and I found myself not being able to ignore the call for help anymore, someone could be in danger, and I would not be able to stand it if something happened to the person, and I knew I would have been of help.Without thinking about the consequences of leaving my room without permission, I ran to the door of the room I heard the sound from and knocked on the door repeatedly.It was opened by a young girl whom I was later to know as the personal maid of Alpha Moses's Grandmother.I saw the panic on her face when she opened the door, she was sweati
MOSES'S POVI was sitting in Alpha Daniel's living room when my phone rang, I picked it up immediately, and the first thing I heard was a woman's voice who seemed to be in a panicked mode."Hello… Alpha Moses," the voice was soft, yet it seemed she was in a state of panic.I recognized the voice immediately to be the voice of the young girl I had assigned to be the personal maid of my grandmother. My heart skipped the moment I heard the fear in her voice."What is going on?" I asked, still trying to maintain my poise and charisma, and not let myself appear shaken in front of Alpha Daniel and his family."Your grandmother is having a seizure, my Alpha," came the voice from the other side."What?" I asked, finally losing it. "And where is Luxian? Call him immediately to take care of her." "Luxian is nowhere around the palace, my Alpha and there are not enough warriors at the back right now." She said in a shaky voice."What?" I asked again, this time finally losing it.I summoned all m
MOSES'S POVShe was about to walk out of the room looking like a scared puppy and with her head bowed when I held her hand and pulled her back.I could feel her body shiver out of fear as I held onto her. I was not in the mood to tease her so I let go of her hand immediately when I noticed that she was scared of me. She might probably be thinking that I would punish her for leaving her room.She managed to look up at my face, and then I looked into her eyes sometimes, then I whispered the words "thank you." Underneath my breath.She looked into my eyes for some time, the look of fear in her eyes was for a moment replaced with that of surprise.She looked surprised that I would even say such a word to her. She wasn't expecting much.I was surprised that I could say such a word to anyone, let alone a powerless, scared woman like her.But of course, my grandmother meant everything to me and I would thank anybody who helped me from losing her.She nodded her head again and slowly walked a
