Chapter 33
My eyes snap open and I find myself in the guest room. Pulling myself up, I try to sit when I feel cramps all over my body.
Aghh! Why does it hurt-
The memories hit me in full force and I rip aside the comforter to stare at my body. How… how is this possible. There was no scar, no blood. Nothing.
Rushing out of the bed I stand in front of the mirror and turn around. My back… it was clear.
How?
Even if a werewolf heals? The scars don’t go away. It takes years if not months.
Chapter 33
And those whip marks were deep. Where are the scars?
It was not a dream. The pain, the lashes, the torture it was all real. But then…
And that’s when I remember. She was whipping me continuously, not stopping, I was losing blood. Soon I couldn’t bear the pain and my senses start shutting up.
And then she pressed some liquid into my mouth.
A magic potion probably.
It has to be that.
That’s why she wasn’t scared when I warned her that Xavier didn’t have orders to touch me. She came prepared.
No one would knew what happened behind these doors yesterday.

She made sure of it.
That bitch.
had no evidence.
A knock on the door interrupts me and I rush to pick up a robe.
“l
Coming!”
I open the door and there stood Dom. Worry etched on his features.
“1
Sier?”
Before I know he throws his arms around me. Pulling me for a hug And I go still. Not expecting this.
Chapter 13
Thank moon goddess you are awake. I thought that bitch gave you something.”
She did technically.
But I refrain from telling him.
I softly pat his back. Smiling at his concern.
“1
Relax. I am fine.”
He pulls back to look into my eyes, his eyes busy scanning my body.
“1
Are you sure? If she hurts you tell me…”
I hold his hand in mine, softly assuring him.

Chapter 93
It’s fine Dom. She didn’t do anything.”
He searches my eyes and I make sure to veil the truth. He is already helping me with a lot of things. I can’t burden him with more of my worries.
Plus that woman Maever is my problem.
She is for a rude awakening if she thinks she can easily break me.
She didn’t?”
I shake my head in a no.
“l
She just lectures me Corrected my posture, made me walk on my toes and stuff but nothing I can’t handle.”
His stiff shoulders drop down. Relaxed. And I gave him that fake smile I am slowly mastering with time.
If she does anything Sier? Just tell me, okay? You don’t have to keep up with her shit.”
I nod.
Looking outside to almost curse.
“1
‘Shit! The sun is up! Are we late for today’s training? Why didn’t you wake me up?”
He rubs the back of his neck to avoid my eyes.
“1
‘Umm actually… you you were not clothed properly… plus you looked really tired..”
“1
“I didn’t had it in me to wake you up.

Let it be a holiday today.”
I chuckle. He is really cute.
‘Aye aye captain. As you say.”

I was busy setting the table for Xavier’s lunch along with the other maids when he walks in, with that woman Maeve at his trail.
He settles down and she sat beside him.
I could feel his eyes on me but I don’t look up.
I was going to serve him when he suddenly grabs my wrist, stopping
21:40)
- me. I still don’t look up at him.
The way he left me yesterday… without even looking back. Without even giving me an opportunity to explain.
He deserves nothing but my ignorance.
And I don’t really care now if he punishes me for it again.
“l
Sit down. You no longer have to do these maid duties.”
I blankly stare at the empty plate in front of me.
“l
Serve her.”
He orders the other maids and within seconds my plate was filled with food. Brimming with delecacies.

Chapter 33
Picking up the knife, I slowly start eating.
Silence stretches.
”
You start your training at 10 am everyday. Be ready on time. Today being an exception.”
“Maevre will make sure you are acquainted with the basics of etiquette required to be a Queen. Your clothing, food, walking, talking. Everything will be managed from now on.”
“I expect you to abide her words without protest.”
”
The session will go on till 8 but soon few days later. She will be making some adjustments with the time. Some night sessions will be added when you are ready for it.”
My hand holding the knife stops mid air.

Night sessions?
Does this mean she will train… no torture my body? Are they crazy?
In hell will I let her do anything.
I refuse to say anything, continuing to eat. It’s no use raising my voice here. If I can’t be clever, I will be dead here very soon.
“Any questions?”
I shake my head in a no. And he doesn’t say anything after that, while Maeve starts talking shit. I mean lying.
“I will start with her walk your highness. She slouches when she walks. Her back seems weak to me…”
My eyes snap up to her. This fucker! She is doing this intentionally

after whipping my back brutally yesterday
And yes, her mouth may be a trouble. She goes far out of line. Can I punish her every time she goes out of line?”
Nothing much.. just a day in the sun with her hands up or better. I can make her clean the entire man-”
He gets up scraping the chair to look at her blankly.
Do whatever you wish. Unless physical. Clear?”
Yes your highness.”
I expected him to leave but rather I find his polished shoes standing beside me. My chest constricts.
What does he want now?

Chapter 33
When I don’t look at him, his hands shoot up and grab my chin. Turning it towards him, he blankly stares at me and I still refuse to look into his eyes.
Keeping my eyes lowered.
He extends his thumb up and my heart stops when I feel his rough pad brushing against my lip.
Start with teaching her how to eat like a fucking Queen.”
Our eyes connect and I wish they hadn’t.
He was looking between my eyes and my lips so intensely, just like that day when he kissed me.
That strange feeling in the pit of my stomach returns and I start feeling hot suddenly.

Why… why do I still feel like this with him?
Hasn’t he given me enough reasons to hate him.
And then when I thought he was done, he
