Mate by Fate, Bound by Love

*****************************

Claire’s pov

I was happy when I saw the sad and gloomy smile that was shown on Lena’s face as a result of the words that I speak.

Although I needed to carry out the plan fast, I have not gotten Adrian to trust me yet.

While in the midst of this, it was better I gain accurate information about her, the freedom she was enjoying in this palace was getting me issued off.

I enjoyed being the bethroted to the ruling Alpha but it was snatched from me in one night.

Ever since that night till now, I have not been able to recover from the trauma that she brought.

Although I wanted to spend my time in getting my revenge, she’s not worth spending the whole of my day on.

The communication between me and Adrian keeps dwindling and he spare no time in shoving it to my face that he can do without me.

The breaking of the plates made me startled for a moment, I turned my eyes towards the direction as the maid who was the perpetrator of such acts was on her knees pleading.

“Was I this wicked?” I thought to myself

I went to go and meet her and she bowed her head to the ground, oh great, I would have been very hard on them in the past that’s why the cause for her action is justified.

I picked her up from the ground as pieces of the broken plates were on her knees and forehead.

“Get me the first aid kit” I said to one of the maids

In no time, the first aid kit was brought over, I removed the pieces on her forehead, I looked over to see if she would flinch but she did not, she was looking at me, I guess she was surprised that I would attend to her.

After removing the pieces from her forehead, I applied the disinfectant on her forehead. I got to the one on her knees and repeated the same process.

After everything was done, I looked at her and I saw that she was afraid of me, before I would be happy that I made a maid to be afraid of me, but now I am disgusted by the thought.

I wondered if this was the trait Adrian saw in Mr that he did not wasye time in replacing me.

“I am sorry lady” she said as she got up from where I was.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

I sighed as I looked at her, my voice filled with concern as I asked her a question

“Are you alright”

She replied back.

“Yes, my lady” the maid replied

I needed space to think about my life and the upcoming disaster in which I was about to do, I dismissed all of them

“You’re all dismissed”, I said

The maids left my presence as I began to ponder on the deed that I want to do. Right from time, I knew I was a proud being who loves everything should be going my own way.

I love being in charge of a particular domain, and I’m the one who loves exercising authority but right now, I think that’s not the solution to my current predicament.

The only way to get close to Adrian is, if I start developing a sympathetic feelings concerning the wolves, which looked like an alien work to me.

Recalling the way my life was, tears dropped down my cheeks. I was already used to the glamour of being the ruling Alpha bethroted.

I had many wolves of different kinds bowing to me and trying to curry favour with me, although I knew that their intentions was not genuine, I was happy.

I went into the place in which I kept the information on Lena and began to glance through the book, I needed to know the evil atrocities she did which will give me a ground of getting close to the Alpha.

Unfortunately, her slates was clean, I really did not believe it so I dialled a line

“Was this everything you were able to gather?” I asked as soon as the call was connected

“Yes” a reply came from the other end

Before I could speak another word, the call was lol disconnected. She will not know what’s coming her way, the strategy in which I wanted to create was the one was the one which will lead to her utmost downfall.

I closed the book as different thoughts ran through my mind, I was badly craving for the attention of Adrian, although he was disgusted by my presence, I missed the way he used to hug me.

I know that he was only doing it whenever he had meeting with the Council of Elders, for them to see that the palace is peaceful and they should not see his weakness, to me it looked like he was possessive of me and I loved it.

Adrian placed all his love and care to Lena and I was been treated like an enemy who was awaiting her death.

Countless times, I had tried to convince Adrian that Lena might not be who he think she was and I had entered the trap of death many times. Only the moon goddess knows how I do escape some of the deaths.

I went out of my room as I saw him entering the chambers, this time he was alone, only his personal guards stood with him but they were afar off. Adrian had the power to protect himself, he walked with his guards for formality sake.

I was a little bit relieved when I did not see Lena with him, I couldn’t walk up to him to tell him about Lena’s case because this time around, I would not know how I died.

I have not been able to come up with a convincing plan that will trap Adrian into hearing my case, but sooner or later, I am going to come up with a perfect plan.
