There's absolutely nothing to be ashamed of," She comforted me. Maybe I'm too quick to judge, but I can tell she is a good person. I feel safe in her presence.

"Sophie?" The other woman called me over Lottana's shoulder.

I turned to look at her, my heart starting beating fast when I saw her face.

"Oh no, Not again? It's that bitch, Helena. I muttered.

"You know her?" Logan asked me.

"Yes, I do. Good to see you again, Helena" I greeted my high school rival, Helena, politely to avoid her troubles.

Helena and I studied at the same high school. She despised me and was a constant bully. She was constantly looking for ways to publicly humiliate me at every slightest opportunity.

"Good to see you too, Sophie!" She guffawed with fake cheer infused in her voice.

I refused to fall for her antics because I knew her gestures were fake.

She hugged me firmly without letting go. I started feeling dizzy and was about to withdraw from the hug when she whispered into my ears, "You stupid bitch, how on earth did we cross paths again? You will regret ever coming here."

Tiny shivers ran down my spine like a race car on a highway.

"That's enough, I don't have time for this. You shall continue your reunion later." Lottana sparked outrageously as he came to my rescue.

I gasped for air as I watched Helena return to Lottana's arms.

Lottana commanded Helena to show me to my room. I wanted the ground to swallow me at that point. I knew instantly that there would be trouble.

"Come with me," Helena spoke in a commanding tone, smirking mischievously.

I had a feeling that it wouldn't end well for me.

We climbed the stairs and walked down the hallway to the end. There was a door at the end of the hallway.

"Here we are." Helena jeered as she opened the door.

"It's pretty dark, are you..."

I stuttered.

"Ahhh!" I yelled agonizingly.

She pushed me down the stairs of the dark room and burst into laughter.

"Haha, just like the good old days. You piece of shit! Does this part of the mansion look like it's for someone like you? Your room is in the maid's quarters, the very first one. You fool!"

"Helena, you evil bitch!" I shouted, storming up the stairs, but she was quicker.

She shut the door and chuckled devilishly.

"Help! Help." I banged on the door, the dust on the door forming a mist on my face.

I sneezed and wheezed until my eyes turned red. I covered my nostrils with my palm and continued banging on the door.

"Are you okay? What are you doing there? That's the basement." Annabelle asked as she opened the door.

"Helena happened.

The bitch did me dirty again." I replied as I struggled to catch my breath.

"But why would she do such a thing?" Annabelle furrowed her brow confused.

"We go way back to high school."

My voice skipped as I explained.

I was still feeling the effects of the dust I inhaled.

"Oh, I see. Don't let me bother you with questions. Come, I'll show you your room." Annabelle helped me up and we went downstairs.

We headed straight to the maid's quarters. It turned out that Helena was right after all.

My room was the first in the maid's quarters.

"Thank you so much, Annabelle." I thanked her for helping me out.

*********

A week passed by like a wind blowing through a tree. By this time, I had already gotten accustomed to my new life as a maid.

I wouldn't have believed if anyone had told me that my life would turn out that way.

. Annabelle and I also became very close during that period. She became my confidant. It turns out I wasn't the only one with so much hatred for Lottana.

Annabelle's pack got ambushed by Lottana, and she was forced to be his concubine just so she could survive.

It makes me wonder how many more people in this mansion had a hidden hatred for Lottana.

"Alpha Lottana has requested that everyone be present in the living room to welcome his son, Marcus" The guard announced.

"Alright, I'll be there in a few minutes," I dropped the cleaning utensils in the storage unit just below the stairway and joined everyone else in the living room

A young man walked in with broad shoulders and a nice jawline.

"Marcus" Lottana embraced his son.

He has some striking resemblance with the Leader. I hope he is different from his father." I mumbled.

"Sorry to disappoint you, Sophie, but he is a carbon copy of his father," Annabelle replied, leaving me to welcome Marcus.

Marcus had a pleasant, or should I say perfect, jawline; I couldn't help but stare at his irresistible beauty.

My mind went blank when he caught me staring at him, he smiled moderately and turned to his father.

"My son Marcus just successfully defeated and conquered the New Moon pack. We'll be having a party tonight to celebrate his victory." Alpha Lottana declared.

We started the preparations for the party and were done after some long hours of working.

All that is left is for Lottana to signal the commencement.

Several of Lottana's friends from different packs came to celebrate with him and his son, Marcus.

Lottana got the party started with a toast to Marcus' victory, and the merriment began.

It got loud really fast, people were talking simultaneously whilst the music played at a moderate volume in the background.

In no time, I and the other maids began asking what the guests would like to have.

We moved from the kitchen to the hall concurrently; the other maids found it easy because most of them could shift, so they used their wolf occasionally.

I started feeling tired and stressed after about an hour. I stopped in the kitchen to catch my breath while the other maids continued working mindlessly.

I returned after gathering some energy from my little rest.

What the hell!

The maids were being touched inappropriately by the male guests, and the maids didn't complain or retreat.

Some were already riding the guests, half-naked. I felt bile crawl up my throat as I saw Lottana and his son doing the same thing.

Disgusting stuff.

"Hey, you! Come get a hold of this." One of the guests flashed his manhood at me, smacking his lips constantly.

"She's off limits, perverts." Lottana stepped in before anything else transpired.
