Chapter 2

Camille's POV

I feared for how my life would be. I had a necklace given to me by my parents and touched it. At least I had something that kept me close to them around my neck. A small drop of tears dropped from my eyes as I would never be able to see them again.

“Here, this is where you will be staying, some clothes and things will be brought here for you” the guard told me and left.

I entered the room, it was a small room with a small bed, it had a little toilet though. My room at my house was definitely better than whatever cage this is. Though it was clean and neat, I went to the bed and finally let go, I cries till I was so weak and heard a knock on the door.

Quickly, I wiped my tears and opened it.

“Take this, you will be needing them, clothes, soaps, brushes and everything and I’ll will be giving you a tour around the castle so drop the stuffs and let’s go, you can come back and arrange everything later” she smiled, feeling excited and I smiled back, she was sweet.

“Oh okay, let’s go then” I smiled back as we left my room together, we started talking and laughing as she showed me places and told me things about the house or castle because it was hugeeeeee. Definitely a castle, no doubt.

“Oh right your name sorry?” She asked me as she giggled, we got carried away talking and the rest that we didn’t even exchange names.

“Camille and yours?”

“Ivy, and you have a beautiful name, Camille.” I smiled widely.

“So do you”

We talked more about ourselves, things we like doing and etc. etc. I found out she was two years older than me and we were both cool and happy being friends. At least I have someone here with me.

Then we saw a young guy coming towards our direction.

Ivy bowed and greeted him “Good day Alpha.” I got confused because I thought I had already spoken to the Alpha but I guess this was his son and I bowed my head softly and greeted too. He gave a nod and passed, there was something about him I couldn’t quite get a hold on, I shivered a bit at the thought.

“Who is that?” I asked Ivy, getting curious at the young guy who just passed us.

“That’s the Alpha son, Alpha Aiden Marshall, he just turned 18 and will become our Alpha soon enough, do well to not disrespect him.”

Hmm I see. Soon our tour was over and we were heading back to my room.

“My room is just the next one after yours, so feel free to come by anytime, my mum is also the cook here. You will meet her definitely” Ivy said as she came in with me, she was still telling me some rules, just to keep me out of making any mistakes.

Once she asked me about my parents and how I just became a maid with no guidance, I told her my parents had just died and the Alpha and Luna were kind enough to take me in. I didn’t want to tell her anything that could maybe hurt her later and I’m glad she didn’t push any further, just gave me a hug and assured me that everything will be alright.

But will it?

Alpha Aiden’s POV

My dad is the current Alpha of the Two Moons Pack and I’ll be taking over soon. I have been training to be the best of the best for the Alpha position since I was a little boy. It’s never been an. Easy journey since I was a child till this very day.

Today we had war with one of our enemy pack and it was victorious. I couldn’t be more happier that we won although we lost great warriors in the battle.

I wanted to go out and fight but my dad said I wasn’t ready yet. He said one day I’ll lead them into battle. So I decided to wait and see what will happened.

I heard the warriors were back. But I was busy with some pack work, which is getting me ready for my future position as the Alpha.

After I was done, I left to meet with my father. While passing by I saw Ivy with a girl I haven’t seen before.

Oh that smell! She’s so breathtaking with her dirty blonde hair which was packed in a bun. Her pretty sparkling brown eyes, her… Cough-cough, she looked really beautiful. what am I doing? I could smell that sweet strawberry scent. I haven’t even reached them but I could smell it.

“Mate, mate is here. It’s the girl!” my wolf Alistair said howling happily after finding our mate.

When I went to them, they both greeted. I nodded and passed.

Did we have a guest that I didn’t know about? I wondered. I’ll have to ask Dad about this.

Walking down to his office, I knocked and let myself in.

“Son. Good to see you, I have good news.” he gestured for me to sit as he continued talking.

“We won the war.”

“Yes I heard, I’m very pleased with that but there’s something else I want to discuss with you now.” I pushed as I changed the topic from the war to the girl I saw.

“Oh that girl, she’s a new maid. She will be working in our home.”

I cringed at the sound of my mate being a maid, a fucking maid. Why would I be fated to such a low status of a wolf. Maid pfft definitely not happening. I didn’t let my dad notice how furious I was. It was best I keep this to myself.

On a second note, she didn’t act like she knows I’m her mate yet. Maybe she hasn’t come of age.

I’m 18 now, werewolf sense their mate at the age of 18, some 16 and that’s how I was able to know she was mine.

“I see, so how old is she. She looks very young.” I asked him.

“She should be 15 I think, her parents passed away and so she would also be living here.” I felt bad for her loss but couldn’t she be of a more higher status? I’m going to be an Alpha, in fact I’m an Alpha and how can my mate be a maid?

I definitely won’t have a woman of that low status as my mate, that doesn’t sit well with me.

I nodded my head and we proceeded to talk about other important and pressing matters of the pack.

But my wolf kept disturbing me on how he wants to be close to our mate but I keep putting him off.

“We are not having a maid as a mate, so quit whining!” I said to him through my head.

“Don’t even think about rejecting our mate, I don’t care what her status is. I’m already in love with her. She’s beautiful and everything we want and need. So don’t you dare!” he growled.

I shut him out. I was too busy to deal with him right now.

On the other side…
