KENDRICK'S POV. "Your Majesty," my personal maid called, drawing my attention. "Your special bath is ready." "Thank you, Lena." I gave a slight nod in acknowledgment. "You may retire for the night." She lowered into a bow that exposed far more of her cleavage than decency required before straightening again. I knew it wasn’t accidental. Her little performances were beginning to wear on me. Over the past few months, her gaze had started lingering longer than it should, and somehow her uniforms seemed to grow shorter with each passing week. She was hardly the first servant to mistake proximity with a noble for opportunity, so I had ignored it. But now, it was becoming difficult to. "Lena," I called. She stopped at the door and turned at once. "Your Majesty." "Let Katya know I want Nuria with me tonight." Her face fell, though she quickly masked it with a stiff nod. Good. Sending for Nuria before my rut was nothing out of the ordinary. If anything, it served as a timely remind

LYRA."My name is Knox," the man introduced, and I paused for a second.Knox..? As in, the royal Beta?"Beta Knox," I found myself whispering his name, and he slowly nodded with a small smile. Just then, another group of maids walked past and he released a low sigh. "Please may I have a word with you?" he asked.Beta Knox wanted to have a word with me?I was surprised. I didn't even know he had an idea I existed. Did he know I was Alpha Ronan's mate, or was this just a coincidence?On a second thought, he most certainly knew.I was very sure the Beta of the werewolf kingdom didn't just go about asking for the names of random omegas. "I... I still have work to do..." I trailed off, realizing how dumb that probably sounded. "I'm sorry," I rushed out, shaking my head."Do not worry, I wouldn't take much of your time." He smiled softly. "And if I do, I would speak to Katya to let you off the hook."I timidly nodded in response. "Come with me," he said, then turned and started walking d

RONAN."Brother!" Celeste grinned widely as we hugged."Welcome back," I said, glad to have my stubborn sister back home."Welcome home, my dear." Odessa opened her arms in invitation, and Celeste bent to her level, hugging her."I missed you so much.""Missed you too, mother."Just then, Knox appeared and Celeste pulled out of Odessa's embrace."Well, look at that." She dramatically held her chest. "You actually left the maid to come welcome me.""What maid?" I asked, looking ahead to see her leaving the relaxation spot close to the aquarium. That omega. Knox had been with her?I looked at him immediately, but he shot me his signature look of disappointment. I could only imagine what she had told him."You and that maid looked quite cozy though," Celeste teased. "Finally in love?"Knox shot her a hot glare. "What?" She shrugged, enjoying riling him up. "You're hardly seen around the ladies. At some point I thought you were allergic to joy.""Are you even listening to yourself?" Kn

A WEEK LATER.LYRA.It was my second week in the White Citadel and I was slowly getting accustomed to my new life. The previous week had come with unexpected situations which led to me being marked by people I would have preferred to stay unnoticed by. Somehow, I came to the realization that princess Nuria may not have been as... kind as I had thought. She had randomly appeared at the servants' quarters a day after my ugly encounter with the dowager, asking if I was okay and advising me to stay far away from Alpha Ronan for my own safety.I would have genuinely mistaken it as a show of care, but the look of disdain in her eyes had forced me to see things for what they were. She was subtly marking her territory. And funny how that territory was actually supposed to be mine."Lyra!"I looked ahead to see Katya walking down from the other end of the hallway."Good morning, Katya," I greeted as soon as she got to me."Good morning, Lyra, it's a new daayyy.""Yes," I muttered flatly. "

RONAN.Shortly after my personal maid, Luna had informed us that it was time for breakfast, Nuria and I made our way out. She walked ahead of me and from the stiffness in her shoulders, I could tell she was still displeased. I didn't blame her though, I was displeased as well. I had her so close this past week but annoyingly, we couldn't do more than kiss.Every single night since that omega showed up in my life, I hadn't gotten a single release. And even when I tried to help myself in the bathtub, she still appeared and ruined it.Nuria didn't understand because I was yet to tell her I had found my mate. So every night, it seemed like I was just giving one fake excuse after the other.A few minutes later, we got to the hall to see almost everyone present. My eyes leisurely swept across the hall, until they fell on the origin of the temporary problem I had. Yes, temporary. Because I was definitely going to find a way around having my release soon. Either grow the balls to reject h

LYRA.After breakfast, I returned to the kitchen with the other maids, still in disbelief at how the situation at the dinning hall had escalated. One minute I was scared to have drawn prince Kian's attention, and the next minute I was made Alpha Ronan's personal maid.Oh goddess, I was so happy deep down.This new role of mine meant that I would have an excuse to be around my mate."Congratulations, Lyra," one of the maids said. "Thank you..?" I replied, unsure why exactly I was being celebrated. "Congratulations, Lyra!!" The others joined in.I was still confused until Katya appeared. "I see who's the king's new attendant now," she teased. "Congratulations my dear."Wait... was that why they were congratulating me? Apparently I wasn't the only one who thought it was such a big deal. "Thank you, Katya," I muttered in response, giving a small bow."I wish I was in your shoes, Lyra?" one of the maids said."Same here!" Another maid agreed. "I could really make do with that much inc

LYRA.It was a new day and I was very tensed about resuming my duties at Alpha Ronan's chambers, considering how I had cut him short and literally fled from his chambers the previous day.Nonetheless, I found myself walking to the royal quarters minutes before the gong for the next hour rang.On my way there, I subconsciously fondled the necklace around my neck, deeply missing the person who had given it to me.Madame Jocasta. On the day I left Lord Bailey's residence, I thought she had decided to not bade me farewell, and it hurt so bad. But then, she suddenly appeared just before I left, crying so badly and hugging me tightly. I had never seen her so... raw and vulnerable before. She was always so composed.The next thing I knew, she squeezed something into my palm and whispered in my ear to wear it at all times, that she was always close to my heart. She was about saying something more when Lord Bailey suddenly grabbed her and pulled her away with him.On getting to the waiting

RONAN.Those damned tears again."Th.. that's not true," she whispered.This time, her eyes didn't carry the usual fear I used to see. Instead, she looked offended.Somehow, I knew within myself that she was telling the truth. But the tension in the room was already too much and I wanted her gone."Just leave," I said with a wave of my hand. But she remained in her spot, looking confused."Why are you still here?!" Nuria suddenly lashed out, making my jaw tighten. I realized right then that I had a problem far bigger than I had imagined. Nuria's outburst had clearly offended me.I was unconsciously becoming possessive of that omega, and that was bad for me. Too bad."Get out!" I snapped before I could hold back, inwardly irritated at how easily I was letting the mate bond control me.She flinched and looked up at me, her eyes darkening in subtle disappointment.She was angry at me.It wasn't the daring or obvious kind of anger, but I could feel it nonetheless. My mouth suddenly tast

LYRA."I'm going to fuck you, Lyra."My heart hammered so hard against my chest, it hurt. Under a different circumstance, that would have been such a pleasant thing to hear him say to me, considering how much my very existence repulsed him. But right then, it wasn't. He wasn't himself.After princess Nuria had falsely accused me the previous evening, I left Alpha Ronan's chambers and returned to the servant's quarters, only to meet a bit of chaos.Dalia had explained to me what was happening and I was shocked. I didn't know that those rumours I usually thought 'baseless' were indeed true. Alpha Ronan was suffering from an age-long curse and was plagued by a bloodthirsty demon side. She informed me that everyone was to steer clear of his quarters for the time being. So I stayed back at the servants quarters the entire day, today, until a random maid approached me a while ago with a jar of herbs, claiming Katya had demanded I took it to Alpha Ronan's chambers. I was unsure, but she a
