Reborn As The Alpha King’s Second Mate

06:Hidden Camera

Willow.

I sighed out a sigh, my only way out of this house is being good to Damon, is by acting like I care about him. People around the house do think that I have really gone mad; they look at me as if I had grown two heads, just because of the way that I had been acting carefree. It is for my own good. “Are you sure that you won’t follow me back home?” Cassie, Willow’s sister asked.

She came in this morning, making everything so hard on me. I have to pretend that I don’t really remember everything that she was saying. I forced a smile, taking a bite of the croissant I made this morning. “Father is still trying to come up with something to help you. Your stay in this house would soon end.” She assured placing her hand on my shoulders.

I pressed my lips into a thin line. How do I tell her that they don’t have to worry and he is the key to my revenge? I feel like there is another reason why Willow came here in the first place, for her to endure everything that was thrown her way. “Just try and get your hands on the files, then everything will be great for father to get you out of here.” Cassie added.

What files? “Don’t worry, Cassie. I would be fine.” I addressed, still trying to make it through what she meant by getting my hands on some files.

“Then I should be on my way. I shouldn’t let Alpha Damon see me around.” She uttered picking her bag.

I stood up, offered to see her off, but she was against it, saying that I should rest. I relaxed back on the bed, thinking of what had happened between me and Damon earlier, I need him to let me out of the house.

The first thing that I need to do is get my hands on everything that I had gotten on Floyd, that way everything would easy for me. “I promise that I would make life miserable for them.” I vowed.

I went through hell staying under the same roof with Floyd. I had gone out of my way, just to see that I had satisfied everything that he needs. While for Ruby, she was my world and I had always done everything, thinking about her and how it would favor her.

Never in my life did I ever think that the day would come, the day that she would go to this extend to betray me, sleep me with husband and even help him in killing me. My heart drops whenever I remembered about it.

Life has never been fair to anyone, I do know that but I have never brought it upon myself that Ruby would be this way. “Miss Willow, do you need any help?” a voice asked.

I looked up to see that it was the same maid that I had come back home with yesterday. “Yes, I am fine.” I answered. I had no idea when she had entered the room. “What brought you here?”

“I just came to check on you. Your sister has left so I thought that you might need something.”

Tears were streaming out of my eyes now, I couldn’t stop it. Floyd and Ruby has destroyed me beyond repairs. “Are you crying?” she asked, coming closer.

I quickly wiped my eyes, sniffing in. “something got into my eyes; you don’t have to worry about it.” I forced a smile. “And thank you for checking on me.” I sat up.

She bowed, ready to get out of the room after she had checked me, to see that I was truly fine. “hey.” I called her back. I do have a lot of questions going on in my head.

“Can I ask you some questions?”

She walked back, closer to me, nodding her head. “This scars? How did she get it?” I asked.

She raised her brows in confusion and I realized what I had said. “I mean, how did I get it?” I corrected.

“If I should get caught, then I would cost me my life.” she shivered.

I felt her fear; it was the same thing that I used to feel whenever I am together with Floyd. I had always being the obedient wife that he had always wanted, the one that wouldn’t say no to all his requests and command, thinking that it was going to make me the apple of his eyes, but I guess that I had always been wrong about it. “No one is going to hear us.”

We are inside my room, Willow’s room; this is the privacy that we needed. “I can’t. There is more than the eyes can see. You might think that we are the only ones in this room but no. I am sorry.” With that, she jumped out of the room.

There is only thing that would justify what she had just said, if only the room is bugged then I should know that I am not safe around here. I stood up from the bed, squirting my eyes until they landed on the lamp by the vanity stand.

As I walked closer to it, there was an eerie chill that went through my entire body, knowing that I am being heard and watched around. I placed my hands on the lamp, checking it out. And there it was the black camera.

I gasped, letting it go. They have seen me naked, they have heard everything. But I wouldn’t care about my conversation with Cassie, I have no idea whatever she said meant. Being the Alpha King’s wife comes with a lot of obstacles and this is one of them.

I can’t let anything bring me down. I need to figure out my way before it gets too late. I wouldn’t want Floyd and Ruby to have the best life that they had been dreaming about without me. I want to be their worst nightmare, making them shake whenever they hear the name ‘Willow’. That would only make me happy.

“Should I get rid of the hidden camera or not?” I asked no one in particular, placing a hand on my cheeks.

My face felt dry even after the tears that I had shed. As I considered getting rid of the camera, I sure do know that it would come with a huge issue. The old willow had always being scared of what Damon would do to her but I am not.

I am not the Willow that everyone knows in the past. I would crumble under him, asking him to spare me or do whatever he wants. But now, I am the boss of my own and I will fight my way through until I have Ruby and Floyd on the floor, begging for my forgiveness.

Getting the confidence that I had lacked all those years, I pulled down the lamp until everything was shattered on the floor and I walked over the camera until there was nothing left. I checked around the room, to be sure that there was no hidden camera that I had missed and there wasn’t. “I am proud of you.” I mumbled to myself, patting my hair.

Whatever comes after this, I am ready for it. I would accept it and fight through it. “what if he throws you down the stairs like they said he did in the first place and kills you entirely without you getting your revenge?” that particular voice in my head, the same one that I had heard in the hospital asked again.

“Then I will make sure to avoid anything like that.” I answered as if I was looking at the owner of the voice physically. “Who are you by the way?” I asked, just to be sure of who is talking to me.

“I am Willow’s wolf, Diana.” The voice introduced.
