Appearance of Madam S.

Anne's pov.

"Anne! Anne!"

I bolted awake, the voice echoing in my mind. My eyes slowly being aware of my surroundings caught on the agitated face of Elizabeth.

"Elizabeth what's wrong?"

I enquired as I got up from bed, sitting up with my fingers attached to my eyes itching for a clearer view

"Anne, they found something." She blurted with concern engraved on her face. What had they found ?

"They found something? What ? And why do you sound like it's something serious?" I voiced.

"It's not something I can say. The Alpha summons you." She stated, I just want you to know, I'm on your side." She whispered, her words leaving me stunned, in search of answers.

I sprang into action, racing to the Alpha's room with a sense of urgency, my mind echoing with the question ' whats going on.'

On getting to the Alpha's room I took a deep breath trying to relax my nerves. "Alpha Jackson, it's Anne. May I come in?" I announced but no reply so I pushed the door open.

As the door cleared open my eyes met with the daring stare of Alpha Jackson, Alpha David, the Alpha's plaything and that guard, Jacob. The atmosphere choking me I entered shutting the door behind me, something was definitely wrong and I knew it had something to do with me. But what ?

"Ahhh" I cried out as my cheeks stung with pain as the whore's palm cracked against it leaving a stinging sensation.

"What have I done?" I questioned.

"Claire! Stop it ." The Alpha declared, his glare piercing deep into me. The whore on the other side sobbed by his sides, so disgusting.

"Jacob, tell her what you found." The Alpha ordered.

"Sir, I found a voodoo doll buried in the garden attached to a love spell with your name on it ." He voiced out

"And who did you say planted it?" He enquired

"It was Maid Anne, sir." He pointed.

"Me? Love spell for Alpha Jackson? How? when?" I attacked shocked, I couldn't believe what I was hearing, in my entire life I had never seen a voodoo doll not to mention handling one .

"Alpha, I do not know anything about this. I'm innocent. Why would I do such a thing?" I cried out on my knees.

"Anne. I'm giving you a chance to confess or else..." He paused, murder intent in his eyes I swallowed hard.

"Alpha Jackson I'm innocent, I swear on my mother's grave, I'm not the one he saw." I pleaded my case

"Anne why lie, it's pointless. It's clear." Jacob persuaded.

My glare leaving Alpha Jackson as It pierced deep into him, "if you dare lie one more time I would loose it." I voiced out in pain.

I was very sure Claire and this guard planned this together, their meeting that night must have had something to do with this, but why me? I thought to myself in pain from the accusations, my gaze moving to Claire, the disgusting whore. I wonder what he sees in her .

"Guards! Take her to the basement now!" He instructed as he took a step closer to me going on one knee "Never mess with Alpha Jackson, ever. You reject me one day, then plant a spell the next ? You must think I'm a joke." He whispered.

From his voice I knew he was serious, if I go into that basement I might never come out, As all this went through my mind I remembered what Elizabeth said ' I'm on your side no matter what.'

"Alpha! May I know the night he saw me?" I threw at him

"2 nights ago." He replied immediately.

"I have an alibi." Boldness enveloped me

Who? The Alpha asked, his stare intensifying.

"Elizabeth sir."

As her name left my lips, my heart fell into my belly, it's beats hitting against my stomach walls. I prayed on everything I knew to help make sure Elizabeth acts accordingly. 'Mom help me ' my thoughts echoed awaiting Elizabeth's entry.

"Alpha Jackson, Its Elizabeth. I'm coming in."

The voice of Elizabeth, my deliverer spread across the room, as soon as she entered the room she peeked a glance at me, my eyes stuck on her in hope.

"Elizabeth. Do you know Maid Anne?" Alpha Jackson questioned.

"Yes sir, she is my best friend here." She assured.

"Were you with her 2 days ago in the evening of the day?"

Hearing this question my tongue froze, my mouth void of saliva and colour drained from my face.

"Yes sir. After we were done with duties for the day, I and anne had a sleepover, So she was with me all night." She answered.

My heart beat accelerated, hands trembling hoping the Alpha would believe this story. Silence filled the room even the sobbing whore kept shut anticipating the Alpha's next words.

"Jacob! Who did you say you saw?" He angrily questioned.

"Alpha Jackson, I'm sorry. I must have seen wrong, have mercy." He pleaded, my eyes smiling in excitement from being saved. I guess Elizabeth really is a nice person.

"You may all leave." The Alpha ordered.

We all bowed and got up to leave, I didn't want to spend any minute in there, I just wanted leave there as soon as possible and get some air and show my gratitude to Elizabeth, at least there is one person I can trust .

"Not you, little Wolfie."

He added, everyone paused turning to face him to find out who he was talking to. Turning to face him, my eyes met with his finger pointing at me.

"Me?"

I enquired, before I could say another word every other person had vanished except Claire, his whore.

"How could someone even plan on charming my Alpha boo." She sobbed loudly trying to rest on the alpha's shoulders, how disgusting! I felt like peeling my skin from irritation. She can act as stupid as she want but for this stunt she pulled on me I will expose her and she even had the guts to rest her cheating head on my mate.

"Claire get out!"

How sweet, the angered voice of the Alpha sounded as he ordered her to leave, putting her in her place. He didn't just shout at her, he pushed her head from his shoulders with no single emotion, My wolf danced around in excitement.

Filled with joy I got lost in time and didn't know that I was now all alone with the Alpha and that his stare had now been piercing into my face.

"You didn't do it?"

His voice brought me back to reality as I noticed his glare. "No sir. I would never." I let out immediately.

"Why won't you? You reject it like I'm not something worth charming." He voiced .

"Sir?"

I questioned as I didn't hear what he said properly or rather what I heard can never be what he would say. Does he want me charming him? I thought to myself as I heard his footsteps approaching me,

He got to where I was, stooping to my level, his fingers lifting my chin to meet his gaze , "Little Wolfie," he sneered. "Never mess with me. You have no right to reject me, I am your mate and only I have that privilege." His eyes boring into mine he added , "Am I understood?" I was taken back by his delusional sense of entitlement, I stood there speechless my eyes locked on his .

Out of anger he snapped his hands grabbing my neck "Am I understood?"

"Yes Alpha." I finally let out

"Get out." He spat .

I hastily got up leaving his presence immediately.

David's pov.

Something is going on in this pack that no one is aware of. 'Anne would surely not do such a thing' my mind in thoughts on my way back to my room

"Madam S, we did exactly as you said but someone spoilt the plan, her friend saved her. But ma, are you after her because you found out she is his mate?" A voice whispered from a room , whose voice was that it sounded so familiar. I needed to see who it was, I surveyed my surroundings heading to the room to sneak a peak from the little space left for the door to close fully.

Looking through, it was Claire, Jackson's girlfriend . So she was behind it, but why? And who is she talking to? I questioned bring my ear closer to hear more of what they were saying.
