He looked flawlessly handsome. I admired his sleeping face. He had defined cheekbones, sharp jaw. There was no rage, no hatred, only peace spread on his face. His beautiful sleeping face looked so peaceful, adorable and alluring.
He was shirtless in his black pants only. He was breathing evenly as his chest was rising and falling perfectly. His body was beautifully built and his muscles were well defined, tight and toned. He had small scars around his throat area and some on his chest.
I bit my lips and raised my hand to settle his messy hair on his forehead.
‘No.. no.. Amelia stop..’ My inner self warned me.
I stopped immediately. I felt as if I was stealing something. My heart was beating wildly.
He frowned slightly in his sleep. I could not resist touching him. I slowly lowered myself beside him on the couch carefully so that his sleep was not disturbed.
I was caressing his forehead softly to smooth his worry lines and then the deep frown between his eyebrows. His lips parted and he released a soft sigh. I stared at his pink lips. ‘Do not even think to do this,’ but I did not listen to myself. I was too daring, I ran my fingers on his face lightly then his lips and smiled at him. His lips felt so soft under my finger.
I noticed a slow smile worked on his lips and he slightly shifted in his sleep. I quickly took my hand away. My heart skipped a few beats and then thundered crazily. I thought he woke up. I peeked at his face again slowly, and when I saw that he was still sleeping. Relief brought a smile on my lips. I realized that I was staring at him for a long time. I decided that I would come back when he woke up, so I was about to turn to leave, but my body froze in place and I gasped when his arm wrapped around my wrist and his fingers were stroking softly. My eyes collided with his sleepy ones. ‘Has he woken up? but he still closes his eyes….’
I was scared and confused. I sucked my breath as I tried to free my hand from his grip, but his grip tightened on my wrist and then he pulled me and I stumbled but I saved myself from falling on top of him by holding the couch with my other hand. My face was very close to his, his harsh breath fanned over my face. A chill of fear ran over me and goosebumps erupted all over my skin. I bit my lips and tried not to let any sound come out of my mouth. I was praying to the Moon Goddess silently to help me. I should free myself from his hold and run from here quickly.
His grip became a little loose so I freed my hand and started trying to stand up. But my bad, I lost my balance and fell on him.
“Oh God!” The words came out of my mouth immediately. My heart was jumping around in my chest and my eyes widened. I knew I was in big trouble. He opened his eyes and my eyes were held captive by his deep green ones. He didn't blink or show any reaction. ‘Amelia, you're screwed.’ I knew I crossed the line and I was done here. I gulped and quickly composed myself. I started trying to stand up.
He frowned in confusion and studied my face intently. The muscles in his jaw tensed. He immediately grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer to him. My eyes widened as I swallowed loudly by his sudden action. He pressed me hard against his body as a gasp escaped my lips. His hand around my body felt so strong and firm. I looked into his eyes, I began to lose myself in his touch. I didn't know why I could never take my eyes off him whenever I made eye contact with him.
He tightened his arms around me, crushing me with his firm warm chest. His intoxicating fragrance was filling my mind and my heart became restless. I didn't know what magic he had done with his touch. It was affecting my wolf so much, which I can't describe in words, it was amazing.
I just wanted to let myself be lost in his magical touch. I loved that feeling. I just wanted to be in his arms like this.
‘Seriously Amelia. Stop.. he is your Alpha….. and you are his maid…. He doesn’t accept you as his mate…..’ Thoughts started running through my mind that I couldn't control it.
His hands started moving up and down on my back.
‘Oh.. Goddess… it's magical….’
And I forget all my thoughts and insults. As the warmth of his skin seeped through my dress, a shiver spread throughout my body. I felt myself melted in his embrace, in his magical touch.
My mind went blank. My heart thumped hardly as he caged me in. I knew that now I couldn’t escape, even if I tried.
I wanted to tangle my fingers into his soft black hair, and run my hand over his arm and his tense muscles that slackened slightly at my touch.
He nudged his nose into my neck and inhaled my scent deeply as I could hardly breath. I felt my skin was burning with his small intimate touch.
He inched his face closer to me until our lips were less than an inch apart as our ragged breathing brushed each other's face. If either of us were to move in a bit, we would be kissing. His eyes darted between my eyes and my lips.
‘Does he want to kiss me…?’
He brushed his lips against mine lightly and sweetly. That sweet feeling made my lips parted in shock as I gasped. I closed my eyes and felt his soft lips against mine. His touch made me feel like I belonged to him. We stayed the way like we were enough for each other. I never wanted to move away. I just wanted to be melt in his arms. This amazing feeling was new and different for me. He stopped brushing, his lips just pressed on mine, his breath became deep and heavy.
All of a sudden the feeling of his lips had vanished from my lips, and my skin began to miss the warmth of his skin. I fell on the floor in a jiffy. I tried to ease the pain by rubbing my butt. I didn’t understand what just happened. I stare up at him in confusion. He pushed me, making me fell on the floor. But why?
He was sitting on the couch as his green eyes filled with anger. He glared at me like I made an unforgivable mistake.
“ Who do you think you are?” His jaw tightened and his eyes flashed a warning with anger.
I was looking down at the floor and didn't say anything.
“Have you forgotten your place?” His voice hit my skin like a whip and the hurt it had caused was invisible.
He got up from the couch and came close to me, holding my hand tightly and pulling me up jerkily, he started to tighten his grip around my hand.
“Why did you come close to me?” he asked. His cold rage terrified me.
“I didn't, it was just an accident and you-” I blurted out in a breath, lowering my eyes, but he cut me off.
“Just an accident?” He left my hand and I stumbled. “You have crossed your limits, and you have to pay for it, you will get punished.”
“Punishment…” I was afraid of what punishment he was going to give me. He smirked at me that I wanted to wipe it.
I was about to tell him something to change his mind when suddenly the door opened and Sara entered the room. I was confused to see her. What was she doing here? She stared at me in a weird way.
“ Yes Alpha!” Sara bowed her head and waited for his order. I was sure that Alpha must have called her through his mind.
“Today she will serve everyone in the meeting.” He ordered looking at me.
“What?” I blurted out as soon as I heard him. Sarah immediately looked at me in shock that I misbehaved. Alpha also raised his eyebrows and looked at me in such a way that if I dare to disobey, then think about its consequences.
I cleared my throat, “ I beg your pardon sir, I'm not a good maid who can handle this.” I tried to convince him with the hope that he would change his decision.
“ Well dear, You are all my personal maid, so you can.” He gave me his order. So he was talking about this punishment. How cruel he is! He called me dear again. Now I know that he used to call me dear only to taunt me. Sara's eyes flickered between me and Alpha in the way that someone had stabbed her with a sharp knife. I ignored her. I started thinking what I should do if he agreed with me, but unfortunately I did not have any idea at this time.
How could he do this to me? In that meeting there would be the Alpha, our former Alpha and his wife Luna, Beta and people of high rank, and I was trembling at the thought that even a small mistake would invite a big punishment. You really screwed up this time!
He went to the bathroom and then turned and said to Sarah, “You should teach her the best way to do things.” Then he stared at me and went to the bathroom.
“Yes Alpha!” She bowed his head.
She glared at me in despair and anger, then she ran her eyes across the room.
“Come out!” She growled softly that Alpha would not hear her.
“ And take with you that thing..” She pointed to the coffee that had become cold now. When we came out of the room, she grabbed my hand and dragged me to the other side, where no one was there. she was looking at me like she would chew me raw.
“You can't do your job properly. Alpha didn't like your coffee, you didn't even clean Alpha's room, you're a useless maid.” She lashed out at me in anger. The wolf inside me was getting angry at her behavior. I clenched my fist.
“No.. He is…”
“ Shut up!” She growled.
“Today Alpha got angry with me and I was embarrassed because of you.” she blamed me and grinded her teeth.
“But he was angry with me!” I corrected her.
“You're really insolent, I don't understand how you became his special maid?” She looked at me with suspicion.
I didn't say anything, I already saw in her eyes that she didn't like me.
“ You will not get food for the whole day, that is your punishment,” she said proudly. She was looking at me as if she had done a great job by stopping my food.
“You can't punish me? You're not my head?” When I protested in anger. How dare she? My wolf self growled and wanted to ruin her face with my claws. Stop… Amelia.. I stopped myself from doing this.
She chuckled. “ Really.. Unfortunately, I can..” She declared and I was confused.
“Kobe is not here yet and in his absence all responsibility is mine,” she smiled.
I was looking at him speechless. Kobe was our head in this mansion.
“Go finish all your work, and don’t create any trouble, understand.” She gave the order.
“Oh, you must control your wolf self otherwise it can be dangerous for you.” She laughed and left me alone.
She threatened me, I wanted to answer her threat desperately, but I knew that I was not in that position to mess with her, but when the time comes, I would definitely answer her in the right way.
For now I should worry about something else.
‘Oh Moon Goddess please help me and bless me!’
