MAYA’S POV What Helen’s offense was, I had no idea. I was the Omega here and not her, could it be that it had escaped Miss Kira’s mind? Just when I thought that she had left the mansion, she showed up. I could only watch Helen from afar. The guards had refused to mention why she was tied to the iron bars that made up the gate of the training ground here in the mansion. That wasn’t all, she had been beaten severely. It all started this morning. We were both asleep in her room when the guards barged in, that action of theirs woke us up. Helen was then bundled out of the room before we could ask questions. The other maidens in the mansion did not speak to me because I was an Omega, so I had no one to ask what the problem could be. I had a strong feeling that Miss Kira was behind this. Helen’s eyes had begun to close, it meant that she had gotten extremely weak. Her only crime had to be associating with me, I never knew that being friends with an Omega was a punishable offense

MAYA’S POV “Do you think this will look good on me?” Kira asked me. “I’m not so sure, I think you should explore other options,” I responded and handed over the catalogue back to her. The moon ball was around the corner and I could tell Kira couldn’t wait anymore. I wasn’t so hyped about it, and Kira was of the opinion that it was because it was my first moon ball here in the pack. “What do you plan to wear?” “I’ll check for an outfit inside my closet,” I replied her. “Okay,” she cooed. I loved the view here in the garden, it was slowly becoming my favorite place to be in the mansion. Kira joined me some minutes ago, I guessed she was bored in the penthouse and decided to come searching for me. The weather wasn’t harsh and it made the garden the best place to be this afternoon. My eyes were on the sky while my head rested on my hands, there were on each other. My elbow was close to Kira’s right cheek. I knew I ought to be on the training ground at the moment, but

RASMUS’S POV “We have to head back to the mansion,” I announced. “Is there a problem?” Kira asked. “Something feels off.” “Do you know what the feeling might be about?” she questioned. “I’m not sure I do.” “One weird thing about you is your extra heightened senses. You can sense even the littlest things, things that don’t even matter,” she muttered. She must have said that because we were headed somewhere, and I had just made the driver turn and head back to the mansion. Actually, she didn’t tell a lie, my senses could be extra sometimes. Vividly, I could recall the day she snuck into my room while I was in the living room and I immediately sensed it, then I headed for my room instantly. She ought to still remember that day. “Stop the car,” she ordered the driver. “Why?” “I have to be present at the occasion, I can’t miss it,” she replied to me. Her presence there wasn’t so important and I didn’t think she knew. I was invited and I decided to go with her, it

MAYA’S POV “I know nothing about this, I swear on Alpha Damien’s life!” “Can you please stop with the act? Everyone knows you hate him enough to swear on his life,” Kira responded to me. I didn’t expect her to. Earlier, I couldn’t think of anything else to do other than swear on Alpha Damien’s life. How else could I prove my innocence to everyone present in the compound? Lycan Rasmus included. “How did the poison got to your room?” Kira asked me. What the hell was she doing? Up until a minute ago, I thought Kira was my friend and that she would always have my back. I understood that the situation wasn’t looking good at the moment, but she was supposed to trust me. Lycan Rasmus hadn’t said a word. Instead, he kept staring at me. I couldn’t say if he believed that I would never do such a thing. Why would I ever want to kill the head of security by poisoning him? “I stepped out of my room and then I…” “Save yourself the explanation,” Kira interrupted. She wouldn’t even

MAYA’S POV The only thing I could think of doing was take to my heels. I was headed towards the woods, even though I wasn’t certain it was the right place to be headed. My breathing pace had doubled, I couldn’t help it. At intervals, I looked at my back, but I still couldn’t see anyone. Yet, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was being followed off. I wasn’t overthinking things, I was very certain about it. Being under the moonlight made my senses heightened. A particular scent did fill up my nostrils, but I didn’t know who it belonged to. I could perceive a werewolf’s scent but I couldn’t see anyone. “Ouu,” I cried out. I tripped and fell to the ground. I sustained an injury on my leg, and was bleeding. This wasn’t the best time for an unfortunate incident as this, how was I supposed to get up on my feet and keep moving when I was bleeding. Asides the fact that I was bleeding, my legs hurt. I closed my eyes while I groaned. The scent kept getting stronger, and it only
