Chapter 4 Forth episode

Henna

When I woke up unexpectedly, I found myself on the bed. A duvet covered my naked body, and the curtains of the windows were closed.

I slowly got up, and my aching muscles were making it complicated. Nonetheless, I got up. I kept the duvet around me to prevent myself from shivering; my skin was cold as ice, and I felt fragile.

Suddenly, the door opened. A gasp slipped past my lips, and I closed my eyes in fear, assuming the worst-case scenario could be nothing other than the arrival of Raul.

But to my fortune, it was not Raul who walked in.

Opening my eyes, I saw a maid walking inside the room. It was not Nadia, and it was the other maid from yesterday.

"Alpha wants you to be at the breakfast table," She told me, "Please get ready quickly."

I nodded, sucking in a breath to brace the pain that shot through my body, starting from my lower abdomen as I tried to get down the bed.

Suddenly, my eyes fell on the bandages that were wrapped around my wounds. None of my injuries or cuts were open.

"Do you know who treated my wounds?" My voice was hoarse from all the shouting and screaming from last night. The flashes of the event gave me chills down my spine, and I was still horrified and probably going to be for the rest of my life.

"Nadia did," she told me, gathering my shredded clothes from the ground, "Alpha came to your room and found you unconscious in the bathroom. So he called Nadia to treat you."

Thank god I was unconscious.

"Your dresses are kept in the closet, and you can wear whatever you want. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask help. By the way, I am Lia ." She did not sound that sincere, but I decided not to pay attention.

"Thanks, Lia. I'll call you if I need your help." I flashed her a forced smile and walked inside the closet.

There were surprisingly many clothes there, but that did not spark any interest in me. I was just too worried about facing Raul once again.

As I slipped on a blue dress and thought of walking again, my legs seemed to give up. I was so weak; moreover, the thought of being in front of his deadly eye scared me to my core.

But I knew I had no other options other than facing him. So I unwantedly had to call Lia to help me walk down the stairs.
