The biggest mistake I made in my life was to kiss my alpha. And I knew that today was my last day on this earth. I was a maid in this Blue moon pack and I did a big unforgiven mistake. Knowing my place that I was not at that place to do it, but I did it by mistake, and I couldn’t help, it just happened. Today there was a big party to celebrate our alpha’s victory. The alpha and the warriors of our pack had a great victory against the our enemies, Hunters. We had one of the strongest and smartest warrior wolves and everyone hesitate to compete with us. Most packs tried to get on our good sides and didn’t want to annoy us. Ever since Xavier Elliott became our new Alpha, our pack has become stronger than before. And I was sure some alphas also would be present at the party today. The party was held in the huge hall. I glanced around taking a view of the lavish party. People were doing the regular meet and greet. All the elite of the packs were here to share the joy of the victory. The women were dressed in fine and elegant dresses and the men were wearing the expensive suits. A platform was set up for the leader of our pack, which includes the Alpha and his family, the beta and other high ranked werewolves. First our beta said something in respect on our alpha and then gave a nice speech on our warriors, everyone clapped at his speech. Then some other people also gave speech. But our alpha was nowhere to be seen. There was an empty seat at the center where Alpha would had been seated. Next to that empty seat elders were seated there already appreciating the speech. I wondered where was he? “Where the hell were you?” My head Lana said. She was very strict lady. She was in her mid forty, had honey colored hair and Hazel eyes. Her thin brows were narrowed as she stared at me. “Umm, around…” I said, showing her an empty tray that I was holding. “ Ms. Sophia needs you to help her to change her dress.” She ordered. “ Oh, Okay, I'm going!” I said hurriedly. I quickly started going towards Ms. Sophia’s room. Now what was the need for her to change her dress at this time. She had just getting ready for the party. Then what was the need to change her dress all over again. When I went to her room, she was angrily throwing away things. And her dress was spread all around. “What does she think of herself, bitch..” she screamed. She seemed in bad condition. The red wine stained her pink dress and her blonde hair looked messy, perhaps she angrily ruined her hair. It seemed that she had a fight with Mary again. She and Mary were cousin and they were at each other’s throat. “ Ms. Soph-” “ You,.. Where is my orange dress that I gave you to keep in the wardrobe in the morning.” She said angrily. “That dress?” I took the dress out of her wardrobe and gave it to her. It was here, how did she not find it? She looked at me then the wardrobe in surprise, and she immediately took the dress from my hand and went to the bathroom. These rich people also wanted servants for small work which they could do themselves. I started putting the scattered things in the right place and cleaning the room. After taking shower, she changed her dress and got out of the bathroom. “Clean it well,” she threw the stained dress on me and I caught it before her dress slid down on the floor. “Okay, Ms.” I said, lowering my head. “ Come help me to set my hair!” she ordered arrogantly. “Yes, Ms.,” I washed my hand quickly and rushed towards her. After drying her hair completely, I combed her curly blonde hair and made a side puff style. She stared herself in the mirror and uttered “ It's perfect!” I looked her in the mirror but she caught my eyes and frowned at me. “Sorry…” l said instantly and lowered my eyes. I was a maid and a maid here was not supposed to see her master's eyes directly. It was an unspoken rule one of others. After preparing herself for the party again, she left the room. And I started doing my work, cleaning her room properly. Grabbing her dirty dresses and towels, I took them to the laundry room. When I had done my work here, I felt a little bit tired, But there was still a lot of work to do. Today it was my turn to clean the kitchen. So when the cooks job ended, then my work would start. And by the way, if there was a party today, that would mean there was a lot of work to be done. So basically this week I had to do more work than any other days. In this mansion there were many servants and maids, doing their jobs without making any mistake. Because a single mistake would not be forgiven here. The lady lords of this mansion had beauty with arrogance who loved to treat us like we were there for them to take their anger and frustration. And the men of this mansion treated us like we were nothing. I went to the hall and started serving the guests again. The party was in full of swing. The sound of laughter and hush of whispers had filled in the hall. Sweaty, drunken, dancing people were enjoying the party. And all the servants and maids were busy with their work. Some of them were setting up fireworks and some of them were serving the guest what they want. I held my empty tray and head back to the kitchen. “ Tired?” Harry asked. He was dressed in a dark shirt and brown jeans. “Yeah, little bit!” I said and gave him the empty tray. “You should take some rest,” he said with concern, “I do it,” he grabbed refilled tray. “No, it’s okay,” I tried to take the tray from his hand but failed. “ I said I do it,” he said stubbornly. “Okay, boss,” I said and we laughed. He was three years older than me. He was a great man and like a brother to me. “You two stop chit chat and go to your work. Otherwise, if our head Lana sees you two like that, then there will be a big problem.” Melody warned. “Yeah, you're right!” He said, smiling and went from there. “Any help, Melody?” l asked. He told me to rest, but there was a lot of work to do, so I too should help others. “Yeah, please!” She said smiling. She was a sweet girl. I walked to the sink and started washing dishes, then passed them to her. Then she dried them carefully. The late night party continued while few of them leave to their home. I cleaned the kitchen properly and placed the utensils back to their respective places. Lana didn’t like it if any thing she found out of the place. “Happy birthday, Amelia!” My friend Lily said and hugged me. She was my best friend, she was a maid like me. We shared same room. “Oh, thanks, you remembered.” I said surprisingly. “ How could I forget!” she said, smiling.“ You're my best friend!” “So what is the plan for tomorrow?” She asked. “Nothing! Tomorrow is a lot of work, so… ” I said simply. “Oh! Come here.” She took me to a room, and there was a cake placed on the table. “Oh my god!” I was surprised and turned toward her. She smiled and said, “ I have not done this alone,” I followed her gaze and saw Julia and Harry was already there at the corner of the room. They came forward and wished me. I hugged them happily. Julia was a nurse of our pack and Harry’s mate. They loved each other so much. Julia smiled at me sweetly and lit the candles. “Now make a wish and blow the candles.” Lily said, smiling. “Ok!” I made a wish, and then I blew out the candles. I cut the cake and fed it to her, then Harry and Julia. They gave me gifts. Harry gave me a beautiful green knee length dress. And Julia gave me a beautiful earrings, and Lily gave me a beautiful scarf. “ Thank you so much!” I said all of them, “It’s beautiful!” I said emotionally. I was here for fourteen years, I had no one here except my good friends and my aunt. My mom and dad died from a rogue attack. Then my aunt took me with her. She had no one except me. Then I started working as a maid. But Aunt didn’t live here with me, she worked as a cook in beta's house and she lived there. But I went to her every day. “So tell me what did you wish for?” Lily asked excitedly and added, “ Did you wish for a handsome and powerful mate?” I laughed and shook my head. “ No, I have wished for a good and better life for all of us.” “ What? You have wasted your wish on that? At least you should have asked your mate would be from Red moon pack. Red moon pack is crowded with handsome dudes.” She complained. “ Mate would be someone the moon goddess has blessed us with. And it's fated already by goddess. So why would I waste my wish for it.” I said simply. They nodded at my words. “ Yeah, you’re right! Our mates are destined and the other half of us.” He said proudly while grabbing Julia by her waist and kissing her. “And we can’t deny it!” I said proudly. Because I had full faith in Moon Goddess that she would have chosen a good mate for me. “Ok…ok..” Lily said feeling defeated. Lily was two months younger than me. She always excited whenever we talked about mate. But I felt nervous about meeting my mate because I didn’t know that what type of person he was! But I knew that our Moon Goddess had chose a perfect mate for us. Now I was eighteen years old. It was the age of any werewolf to find their fated mate and bond with them. “Okay guys, I have to finish my unfinished job, good night!” I said and hugged them one by one. They were my real friends whenever I was sad they were always with me and consoled me. When I had my first shift at the age of sixteen, they were with me and support me. My first shift was very painful and unbearable. But I was very happy and excited to shift into my wolf form. I went back to the kitchen and finished my unfinished work, humming. Suddenly, I smelled a most delicious scent, l felt uneasy so I followed it, pushing my way past the crowd and reached a dark corridor. My wolf was howling like crazy in my head and I couldn’t help it. I felt completely weakened because of this heavenly scent. Since I had turned eighteen tonight, I knew then what it meant and I traced the scent right away. I didn’t know that my fate kept a dangerous game with my life without showing any mercy. I collided with a hard stone wall who caught me with his hands. It was not a wall but a person was standing there breathing heavily. He seemed to be a very strong man. I couldn’t see his face clearly because of darkness. He grabbed me and pulled close to him, I felt his warm breath on my face. I didn’t know what happened with me, my heart restless and lost control. The scent and touch of his body was awaking some strange magic in me. And I did what I shouldn’t have. I crashed my lips against his, a strange man. His lips felt so much soft and warm against mine. He growled and slammed me against the wall, forcing me to respond to my own demanding kiss. His long fingers sliding roughly into my brown hair as he pushed his whole body against mine. I opened my mouth with a low moan as he bit my lower lips softly. His tongue began exploring my mouth. He tasted like honey and whiskey. The kiss was rough and needy and desperately hot . My hand went to his hair and I grabbed a handful. Our tongues fighting against each other and a moan escaped from my lips as he pushed his tongue harder against mine, tightening his fingers into my hair. Oh My God, I kissed a strange man but not totally strange because I felt him and he was my mate, my other half. I knew it. I felt the magic that was happening between us, pulling two of us to melt into each other. And then I knew this was what people talked about the mate magic. It was amazing and unspoken. It was our Moon Goddess bless. I wondered who was he? A servant like me? A cook? A warrior? A commoner? Who? Or some stranger who attended the party. I felt his hand traveled down my back and came to rest on my hips as he devoured my mouth hungrily. I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck, getting lost in the amazing kiss. Who knew kissing could feel like this? I lost myself in him as I let the question vanished whoever he was. We broke our kiss breathlessly. I closed my eyes and leaned against the wall. I could feel his hot breath on the side of my neck where he kissed. “What’s your name?” He asked, his voice was dangerously low. My heart was pounding fast as his kisses trailed down my neck. I bent my neck to give him more room for it and I sucked there hard. I let out a soft moan and opened my eyes. “ A-Amelia Jones,” I whispered. “Amelia,” her name rolled off his tongue that sounded sweet music in her ears. “Ummm.. your scent was amazing!” He said in a sweet melting voice. His smooth wet lips swiped across my cheeks. Wait, his voice seemed familiar, who was he? Did I know him before that? And did he know me? I thought hard but no one came into my mind. “Who- who are you?” I asked and I felt his lips on mine. He bit my lower lip. Then his lips leave mine. And the light turned on. The bright light of bulb burned my eyes. He switched on the light. I turned to see him and when I realized who my mate was. I froze on the spot as my feet got rooted there. I stared at him dumbfounded but soon the fear rushed into my veins. I couldn’t believe my eyes. No. No. No. It couldn’t be true. I chanted in my head it was a strange nightmare. How could it happen with me? It didn’t make any sense. Or I couldn’t make any sense of my action. Before me was stood there none other than our alpha. Alpha Xavier Elliott!
