My heart stuttered when I caught the large smile on the Alpha’s face. The next picture was even more beautiful than the first. It looked like it had been taken when he was mid laugh and his usual stoic face morphed into something even more
handsome.
The hard lines of his jaw relaxed and his eyes were the softest I had ever seen. He had his arms slung around the woman’s shoulders and the woman was laughing too,
The woman looked familiar. I couldn’t think about where 1 had seen her, but I knew there was something very familiar about her.
The picture in general was beautiful.
I tucked them back into place and placed the purse where I had found it.
With a new question milling in my mind.
Was the rumors true?
The woman in the picture could have easily been his friend, there had after all been no sensual energy between them in the picture, just pure happiness and laughter.
But it left many options open.
It didn’t really matter what it is, or what it was. It wasn’t like it changed anything for me, I was just curious about the
situation
There was a look in the Alpha’s eyes that was deep. Almost like it was an entryway to many deep, dark things and I just really wanted to take a peek into it.
The sun was beginning to set, which indicated that it was evening. Which in turn meant the Alpha would be home anytime
Panic settled in my stomach. Christie and another maid, Catherine had helped me a lot. But I still had a few things on the list to tick
I was grateful to both girls, because I knew there was no way I would have gone this far without their help but now to focus on getting this completely finished.
I was currently cleaning the punishment room, which was by far my least favorite chore so far.
There was a chance I was going to end up here at the end of the evening anyway so I better made sure the tools were in the best condition to bring me pain.
I rolled my eyes at my train of thoughts.
I tried to pull on the drawer that held some items, but it seemed stuck. I pulled hard at it but it wouldn’t budge.
I had half a mind to let it go and move on with other chores, but my worry that the Alpha would chose to inspect every chore closely, kept me from doing that, just the way it had kept me going throughout the day.
The drawer opened slightly and I stuck my fingers through the opening to try to pry it open and in a bid to do exactly that my hand caught in between the drawer and got stuck there.

I bit my lips to keep a scream from bubbling out, it felt like my entire fore finger had been ripped out. I struggled with getting my fingers out and when I finally did, the sight of my fingers caused the tears to fall faster down my face.

There was blood dripping from where the drawer had slammed my hand against the sharp edges of the roof of the drawer and my fingers looked scrunched.
Picking up the rag that I had been working with, I wrapped it around the bleeding then made my way out of the room.
Just as I entered into the kitchen, I heard the front door open, signaling the Alpha’s presence. Just my luck.
I hurried to the tap and pushed my bleeding fingers under the cold water, hissing when the water hit my fresh wound. I didn’t heal very fast like most wolves, so this would take a while to close up.
The bleeding for some reason refused to stop and I knew I had to find a way around it at least a way to cover it till I finished serving the Alpha his food.
“What the hell happened to your fingers Freya?” Christie screeched beside me and 1 flinched lightly, since I had not been expecting her loud voice.
“Got stuck in a drawer.” I mumbled, focusing on running more water on it.
“That looks nasty. The Alpha is settled in the dining room, waiting for his dinner. I could get you a handkerchief to wrap around that real quick and once you’re done, I’ll help you with treating. She offered and I gave her a small smile in appreciation
Christie dashed out of the room, to get the handkerchief I assumed while I began putting the dishes that she had already set out into a tray.
She came back with the handkerchief and helped with wrapping my fingers. In no time the blood had formed red splotches on the material, I ignored it, picking up the tray and moving in the direction of the dining room.
I met the Alpha with his arms folded over his chest and a faraway look in his eyes. The last thing I wanted was to interrupt whatever he was thinking, but it was too late to go back out now that I was within the
space.
1 had just begun setting the table when the Alpha took a deep sniff of the air around me, just the way he had done at the auction house,
ly said and I swallowed. The tone of his voice, was the softest and most gentle version I had ever heard
“You’re hurt.” He simply
- it.
110 head at his words even when I knew it wasn’t a question. He kept looking at me for what felt like I could only nod minutes, before his eyes roamed my frame and soon they were connecting with the handkerchief that was soaking through with my blood.
His eyes darkened when they locked on it. He rose from his seat and began walking out of the room.
“Come with me.” He instructed.
