Chapter 71
She was finally done bathing, her body dripping slightly with her black hair slick and flowing down her back.
She was wearing her torn clothes.
“Change that cloth to anything you can wear in my wardrobe; you can’t be dressed like that.” I said to her, and she hesitated a
bit.
“Really? I can wear your clothes.” She asked, surprised by my nice gesture.
“They aren’t even my clothes. I met them here, so don’t make it feel like I’m doing something huge” I smiled, and she smiled back, making me gaze at her in admiration. For real, her smile was just so pretty, with those nice sets of white, gleaming teeth adorning her face and making her beauty brighter like the sun.
“So you don’t mind if I sleep on the bed with you? I’m nervous. I had never thought there would be any day in my life when I would share the same bed with the Alpha of our land.” She said it lowly, her gaze on the floor as she fidgeted with her fingers.
She was putting on one of my shirts and had one of my khaki shorts on, which stopped barely above her knees, revealing her thick, fresh thighs. The light in the room shone on her, and I couldn’t deny how beautifully endowed she was. In her maid’s gown, she looks nothing like this. I don’t even know if I had seen her around before, or maybe I hadn’t cared at all.
“What’s your name?” I asked, “And look up. I don’t bite.”
Those blue eyes fell on me again as she obeyed and faced me with her hands held together.
“Lara.” She answered with that voice that sounded so sweet. I love it.”
“Lara, I had been single all my life and actually fell in love once with the woman I thought would be the one to spend the rest of my life with. I gave her everything and even sacrificed my true mate for her. My whole heart and soul were all I gave to her, ready to even give more once she requested it. I sighed sadly as the memories rushed in “Guest what happened.”
She sat beside me on the bed, her eyes focused on me as her brows knitted together.
“What did she do? And where is she? She left you” I could sense so much care in her tone and felt the warmth that came from her touch as she held my hands in hers.
“It would have been better if she left me. Heartbreaks happen, and it doesn’t always work, but the heartbreak came with something that would scare me for life, leaving me cursing the very day I met her for the rest of my miserable life.” I poured out, feeling so exhausted.
At that moment, I just wanted someone to rant to, someone to pour out my sorrows and sadness on. The ache and burden in my heart were what I wanted to spill. My mother was someone who would always be ready to take it all and console me, but she is no more. I am left all alone in this world, like a lost sheep.
“Can I know what happened? What did she do to you?” The young girl asked with her eyes on me, giving me all her
attention
From the beginning to the end, I narrated everything to her without excluding a single part. I poured out my emotions, giving my life story in detail to her as if she were my mother who would find a way to make me feel better. I don’t know why I felt like that or why I really was telling someone I just met the story of my life.
Not just that I just met her, but she is a common maid while I am the Alpha, although I don’t even see myself as an Alpha
anymore.
What kind of Alpha doesn’t have control over his pack? What kind of Alpha has his whole kingdom’s income controlled by a demon!
“I’m sorry. I was thinking about all you said, and my heart is broken. You didn’t deserve that. Your only crime was falling in. love with the wrong woman. She was even a demon in disguise, and now there is no turning back at the suffering she is

inflicting on us.” She breathed and sniffed, tears dropping from her eyes and falling on my body.
I told her everything about my visit with Selene, and she was so excited to hear that there was really hope. She offered to help me in any way I want to make sure it is all achieved and Diana gets to suffer.
“So it is all starting tomorrow, right? How do you intend to kill them? If they have any slight hint that they will be ambushed and killed tomorrow, they will escape and report to Diana, thereby sabotaging all the plan.” She rubbed her face and squinted her eyes, like she was thinking of a better idea.
“I will think that through this night and come up with a plan tomorrow. For real, I have to carry out this perfectly so I won’t fáil Selene the second time after I messed up in the past. This is an opportunity to make things right.
“I have an idea.” She snapped her finger, grinning with her eyes lit up.
“Wow, really? Let me know what you got.”
“There is one thing that I am sure can get these demons into trouble of losing their sense of reasoning and not alert over any danger, and that’s the women of our pack. I have noticed so much that they have little or no resistance to . We can use that as a trap.
“How can we do that?” I asked, feeling so much happiness at her sense of reasoning, which was really what I needed now. Someone should think for me because it seemed like my brain was clogged with guilt.
“I will arrange that. Just give me your badge so I’ll be respected, and the girls will do just as I say. I will make the men decide to stay in a room with these girls, and in there we will get them drugged. Your men can now come in and finish them up.” She explained, and it was like cold water was poured on my body, giving me a chill of relief. My heart, which was heavy, was now light and free.
I beamed and left the bed, walked over to the cupboard, and brought out my badge, which I handed to her immediately.
“If you do this for me, I will forever be grateful. You will remain in my heart forever, but please be very careful. Nothing should happen to you. Absolutely no harm should touch you, please.” I spoke, not noticing I was really displaying a deep sense of affection.
Her eyes widened, and her mouth fell slightly agape as she stared at me, bewildered. “You sounded so protective and caring. I can’t help blushing”
That’s because I really care and can’t bear seeing you in pain–not a pretense, but that’s just how I feel. When all these are over, I will let you know my true intentions.“.
She nodded, her lips in a thin line, as she lay to sleep. “Thank you for this opportunity” She breathed, and I lay on the other
side.
It didn’t take much before sleep took us away, but I got to wake up at midnight, feeling a soft body on me, which explained why I was warm. It had been a very long time since I slept with a woman. The last time was before I met Diana; so many years passed.
You won’t believe Diana had never allowed me to sleep on the same bed with her. Thinking about it now, I can see how stupid and senseless I was. For real, my whole attitude stinks, and I was just seeing what my mother saw. She knew right from the beginning that it wasn’t normal for me to act the way I did.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Lara’s head was on my chest, we were both sleeping like couples, and it felt so good. I don’t know how, but I really loved it. The moon was bright and reflected into the room, giving me the opportunity to see her pretty, glowing face. She looked so innocent, her lips slightly apart as she let out a slow, calm breath.
I couldn’t help admiring her, getting lost as I stared at her and imagined my whole life with her. She was the kind of woman who would stay loyal and give you the respect you deserved. It had just been less than a day since we stayed together, and I was already feeling complete and happier.
My company with her felt so nice and good that I ended up spilling all the secrets to her without any fear of betrayal. My sudden trust in her was unbelievable, considering that I was a victim of betrayal not long ago at the hands of Diana Something about Lara just sits so right, and I could swear she is the one for me even without the mate scent. The connection

was perfect in every way, both in terms of communication and touch.
“Why are you looking at me like that? i feel like a goddess with that admiration brimming in your eyes. Her voice came in. I didn’t even realize she had woken up and saw me gazing at her intensely.
“You are really a rare gem. Fate actually brought you to me at the right time. I believe the moon goddess has actually seen my repentant heart and brought you to me to mend every broken part and set things right with me.”
She covered her face shyly and buried it on my chest so she wouldn’t see my eyes.
“My cheeks are going to burn. You are flattering me, and hearing all these from the alpha is just really mind–blowing. I feel on top of the world.” She cooed
“You deserve everything. I didn’t even know you were a maid here, and I can’t recognize your face. How long have you been Working for me? I am sorry for letting you stress your body all this time.”
“Ah, king. I was only doing my job, and you were paying me. It feels like a dream. Hours ago, I felt like I would die after they attempted to rape me. I barged into this room to hide because it was the only place I knew they wouldn’t be able to enter.” She paused and exhaled sharply.
“Now that single act had made my crush finally notice me, and not only that, he also liked me and offered to share the bed with me. I swear, I’m overwhelmed and can’t even find the right words to use to express myself. It feels so surreal.”
I winked and held her chin.
“Fate has a lot for us, and I believe we met at the right time. We are sticking together to make this pack work better and to save us from the demons trying to destroy us. Meeting you has just given me the courage that I lacked. You are more reason why I should make sure I get things right because I won’t even want anything to ever happen to you, so it’s important that I
don’t fail
I drew closer, and with our eyes shut, her lips met mine, the deep kiss sending a sensation so sweet and overwhelming down my spine.
We broke the kiss and laid back on the bed, hugging each other. I could swear that was my best sleep for a very long time. I had a dream–a sweet one of mine and hers–in this pack where everything was fine–peace and unity with nothing to worry about.
I was the Alpha, and she was the Luna. In that dream, she was pregnant with my child, and we were that family with an unbreakable bond.
The next day, I woke up with her looking at my face with a smile.
“You were smiling so hard. What are you dreaming of? You even went from smoking to grinning really hard.” She squeaked and laughed heartily. I told her everything I dreamed of, and she was blushing really hard, her eyes wet with emotions,
“I feel on top of the world. I imagine it in my head, and I swear, it’s really overwhelming, consuming me with joy. I can’t wait for that moment, so I have to carry out the duty I have to do today. I must deliver these demons to you in that empty room on the second floor.” She pecked my lips and jumped out of bed to prepare.
