Fate's Dark Side Chapter 22
The woman and her sidekicks walked away. I could see the others feeling sorry for us. The moment they left, a red-haired girl came to join us.
"Hello, I am Katya; I was an Alpha's daughter before I was brought here," She said and looked at me. "I heard you are in the Alpha's harem. You are the first Luna to make it there. All three of you. Lunas are usually put to service. Anyway, be weary of Lilly. She does have the Alpha's ear, and she could have him do things to you by lying against you. She has done it to several of us. We think he sleeps with her, but we will never know," She said, and that last part hit me. That was precisely what a harem is meant for.
"What do you mean by you think he sleeps with her?" I asked, and She smiled.
"I know it says harem, but they never touch us. The Alpha, Beta and Gamma don't sleep with us. We are hopeful it will happen one day, but it doesn't. We just keep them company, throw parties and all the fun stuff except sex, of course, that's all," Katya said, and that was interesting.
I looked at Avery and smiled because I guess the Beta had broken his personal code with her. Her cheeks coloured, knowing what I was thinking.
"Thank you for the heads up, Katya. I appreciate it." I said, and we started to serve our food.
Three servants approached us immediately as if in a hurry.
"Sorry, madam, I wasn't supposed to bring you here," The woman that brought me said, and before she could speak, Lilly cut in.
"I knew there was no place for used goods here," She said, and the women laughed.
"The Alpha wants you to join him at his table," The Servant said, and I wanted to grin because of the silence that washed through the hall.
I realised the other two servants were sent to Avery and Linda, and we were to Join the Alpha, Beta and Gamma for breakfast. I guessed we had been levelled up.
I looked at Katya, who was stunned and smiled at her.
"She comes with me," I said, and the servant wanted to protest, but she figured I wouldn't let up.
"I will remain here, Luna. The Alpha never sends for anyone. This is the first time. It will be wrong to aggravate him." She said, and I let her be, not because I was scared but because I noticed she was frightened.
"Just this once. You will eat with us next time, Katya," I said and stood up.
The women no longer looked at us scornfully. They were scared and worried because Lilly had made them misbehave.
"Don't worry, ladies, I wouldn't tell," I said to them, seeing the relief in their eyes. But Lilly's eyes burned. It was a pleasure meeting all of them.
We were ushered to a small dining room, and the moment the three of us walked in, the men at the table were at attention. The Alpha looked at me with approval, and the Beta beckoned Avery to join him. She went quickly. Linda and I took our time to join the men we were attached to.
"Good Morning, Alpha." I greeted the man and went ahead to greet the Beta and Gamma. My friends did the same.
"Call me Sylvester," he whispered in my ear, and I swallowed. he gently lifted my hair off my shoulder to see my mark.
"Your husband isn't letting you go, I see," He said with a low growl.
"Give him time; he is mourning," I said, not wanting my sacrifice to be in vain. If Sylvester went after Leo, he would kill him. I did not want that.
"Please give him time," I pleaded, and he growled.
"For your sake, I will ignore it for now," He said and served my juice. Why was he so nice?
