The Ruthless Alpha

Chapter 4

I have been good; doing my chores, being submissive, and doing whatever was asked of me. Which was not excluding serving the Alpha and his girlfriend. I helped her prepare for things, I helped her plan the announcement of her becoming Luna. 

It wasn't easy especially because I have been skipping my meals and water. I have been very light-headed and dizzy, but thankfully, not one person has noticed. 

A while ago I had a close call with his girlfriend. 

"Hey, Rebekkah! I need you to help me pick out flowers for the ceremony." 

It was hard to hate this girl, she was really nice and was good Luna material. That one morning was a misunderstanding, she was battling a migraine and a cold. I could totally understand. 

"Yes, ma'am." 

"Hun, how many times have I told you to call me Adelaide?" 

"In all due respect ma'am I, a maid, am too low to call the future Luna by her name. Plus, even if I wanted to I wouldn't be able to because Alpha forbade me." 

"Oh dear, I will talk to him. Ma'am makes me feel old." She laughed. 

I laughed. "You will have to take it up with Alpha. But, until then let's get to these flowers shall we?" 

As we were discussing flowers and looking at them I got an extreme wave of dizziness and almost fell over. 

"Oh my gosh! Hun, are you alright?" 

I nodded. "Yes, miss. I think my equilibrium is just off." 

"Dear, please sit down. I don't want you to get hurt." 

"But-" 

"No. No buts!"

"Yes, miss." 

She isn't that bad when you get to know her. She loves the pack and loves to see them and spend time with them. She will be a good Luna and it probably is for the best. I'm nothing like her. I guess this is how it is meant to be. I just hope I live long enough to maybe meet someone and have kids. 

It has always been my dream to find my mate, and have a family with him. But, I guess that is never going to happen. 

Tomorrow is the ceremony and my wolf is whimpering and whining about our mate picking someone new, especially because he still hasn't formally rejected us. Due to that, it hurts us more. I try and comfort her, but it doesn't work as well as I wish it would. 

But, I have to. There is no option not to.

I am just a lowly maid and before this a simple house almost wife. I have never been an extravagant person, I am nothing really. I could die and no one would care or notice, until something was dirty. 

I am honestly surprised that Bret hasn't come after me with a blazing rage. He has never had a good temper, so if and when he finds me I am not going to be in his good graces. 

I can only hope to be a rogue. 

"Rebekah, dear, will you please come here?" Luna yelled. 

"Yes, Luna?" I ran up to her room. 

"Will you help me with my dress?" 

"Of course." I zipped up her dress, it was long and turquoise, with a sweetheart neckline and a tight bejeweled bodice that let out around the hips. It was beautiful, and I couldn't say a bad word against her.
