Joan's POV After Alpha Jerome dismissed me for a meeting, I made my way back into the main house, hoping to come across Ms Emma.I wasn't looking forward to meeting her again but she's with my clothes and she knows where my room was.Taking in the splendour of this mansion, I wondered if the maids around here see this place in its magnificence as I did.Of course not.Alpha Rex's mansion looked just as majestic ,even better than this but all I could think of was my horrible time there.I made my way up the stairs, avoiding any eye contacts. I could see the maids staring at me like I was some freak! Just great! So much for trying to be on a low profile! Of course rumors would spark because Ms Emma was ordered to take my bag to my room..I groaned as I realised what this would mean for me, I made an enemy for life! My time would certainly be miserable. Just fantastic, exactly what I need after escaping hell barely a month ago! Finally on the 2nd floor, I walked past
Joan's POVI stopped on my tracks, staring at the girl who had just asked the question."I was told to get the Alpha's food" I replied simply. I wasn't looking for any trouble and I wanted it to remain that way. "The Alpha's food she says" another girl said as though mimicking me I was trying my best not to roll mt eyes at her right now . What issues did she have with me? "His tray is over there" I made my way towards the direction pointed where a girl was holding the tray, mischief in her eyes.Just as i was about to take the huge tray from her, she drops it, earning laughter from everyone in the room.Maya kicked in and I caught the tray just seconds before it hits the ground.The room became silent as I walk out of the kitchen. The look of shock on their faces was amazing and rewarding.I wasn't some girl they could pull pranks at and for some weird reason,it felt like Maya had grown stronger over the course of one month./You're welcome dear/ Carrying the he
Joan's POV "Wipe it clean, you lazy bunch!" Ms Emma screams in my face.I couldn't tell which was more annoying, her screaming so loud or the fact that she spits a lot while at it? My job was to clean the Alpha's room and make sure his things were in place but this woman made it her business to watch me do the cleaning.Shouldn't she be supervising the other maids? Why is she all up in my business anyway? "No peck of dust on the ground, do you hear me? Not a single speck of dust! " She said for the hundredth time that evening!She was starting to annoy me. It took a great time convincing Maya to stay put and not wolf out. She's been staring all day, waiting for a chance to snap at Ms Emma's face and scar her for life! If you do that, we're going to draw attention to ourselves. We could be forced to hold metal plates Which would burn into my skin and never heal…Maya agreed to stay put and I made sure I kept my anger at bay as well. Any signs of trigger and May
Joan's POV I sat there, holding his towel and my back to the bathroom as the sound of sponge scratching hard against skin filled my ears.It was hard to ignore what I had just seen and to have witnessed something do gore and disgusting….I was set to lose my mind, certainly,my sleep as well.My eyes got a glimpse of the bloody clothes in the corner, staining the floor I had spent so much time cleaning."Towel" I handed him his towel, my back still in the bathroom. Alpha Jerome was out of the bathroom soon, looking clean and …..dare I say, innocent."That was a boar's blood" je muttered, walking towards his closet with the towel wrapped around his waist.I turned my back to him , giving him the privacy he deserved. I might be his personal maid but that doesn't give me the right to stare at his body like some fucking pervert."I went hunting in the woods with my beta and to my shock, my arrow was blunt. " He chuckled in amusement " The boar didn't take that well and jumped a
Joan's POV I stared down at the white cloth belt I had tied around my waist, over my shapeless gown.Something kicked in my head, anger maybe, when I realised what made the Alpha stare at me that way last night.I was not only angry but irritated by his actions! Staring at me like some pervert.Despite my hatred for Alpha Rex and his father,I would rather have Rex staring at me that way rather than Alpha Jerome.How could he…My thoughts were cut short when I felt someone tug at my hair from behind, pulling me to the ground. Who…I glared up at her, swearing to curse her out if it was Ms Emma. I would rather have anyone do anything but getting handsy with my hair is certainly out of the question!To my shock, it wasn't Ms Emma but a lady cladded in the most expensive attire that hugged her curves. She was both elegant and graceful and her skin shone, spotless and beautiful to behold.A woman built to pleasure a man both physically in appearance and…the other areas I
Joan's POV A knock on the door made me drop my mother's anklet. The Alpha is not supposed to be back by this time or did the meeting end earlier than planned? I heard the council had called for Alpha Jerome from one of the maids and they feared that would spell doom for the Alpha.I wasn't sure what the real problem was but I could tell it wasn't anything good.I arranged the jewellery back in place, picking one of my mothers crystal necklace in the the band of my waist belt as the knock persisted. I hurried towards the door, wiping the entrance clean before pulling the bolt away from the door."I'm really sorry Alpha, i wanted to get the bucket out of the way" i offered immediately he stepped in.He waves me off, obviously concerned about something else. I was glad he didn't hit my face or squeeze my neck in anger but I was more curious as to why he seemed so distant.I returned to my chores, making sure to avoid any more of him for the day.Finally done with the cleaning, I pic
Joan's POV Maybe I should have kept the 'beast' in check because now I was face to face with the Alpha and Lady Gina as well as my accuser Ms Emma, was standing right behind me ."My lord,this filthy maid has been not only disrespectful but last and insolent! I gave her chores and she has refused to do them! She called me names and even tried to hit me Alpha !" I shut my eyes, keeping my anger well bottled in and in check. Of course she would try to play victim and get the Alpha to punish me severely! My eyes lands on lady Gina, would me trying to seem innocent save me at this point.I flashed her a small smile and returned my gaze to the feet of the Alpha."Why is this any of my business Emma? Do I appear as someone who cares about such stupid matters?!" "Alpha, she's your personal maid. I wanted to ask your for your day on this before doing anything Alpha" The silence that followed was uncomfortable and I could feel the Alpha's gaze on me."Maid" "Yes Alpha
Alpha Jerome's POV To think she would think that her opinion mattered to me was nothing short of infuriating! No one dared to question or challenge my authority, not even Gina and I made that clear a dozen times! I heard a whimper from her, rewarded with a deadly glare that shuts her up.One glance around the room and I felt disgusted."Get out" I ordered.The very sight of her was disgusting and irritating. I wanted her out of sight and immediately too…"My father asked to see you" she said as she made her way out of my room, fully dressed moments later."Tell him I am not seeing anyone at the moment" "I believe this has to do with the recent attacks on the border" "What part of my words don't you understand?!" I yelled at her. She takes a few steps backwards but not fast enough before I took hold of a handful of black luscious hair."I am not meeting anyone now. " I repeated,breathing down her neck..Her eyes stared into mine, not a hint of fear was in there."
