Mae pov
What?" They both said in unison, I wasn't surprised in fact that's what I wanted. The only thing is I am still confused with everything plus lady Lizzy who use to be so nice to me hated me now. I feel there is a tiny bit of the puzzle that I am missing.
"Lizzy, you don't have that right, this is my house Elliot said.
Little things like this that he says confuse my thoughts about him.
"Yeah, she is clearly not at fault here," Eric added
"First of all, I have the right and secondly, I feel like it, now scurry on out of here, she added with a glint of anger in her eyes, I didn't need to be told twice I ran off To get my things.
"Slut, slut..... I heard Fernanda and Ariana say I guess I am going to be the hottest gossip in this house for a while I expected Marinette and Guzma to say something to defend me but I guess they felt deceived as well They must hate me for not telling them about I am Eric.
"Hurry and leave, didn't my mistress just fire you Ariana said with a huge grin on her face.
Stepping into my room I couldn't believe my journey in this house has come to an end even before I achieved my aims.
I must say I have come to love this place starting from my bosses to my room it's not everyday a mere cook gets such a room it was simple but still, the best I have ever had there wasn't much furniture other than the bed and dressing table with a mirror attached to it,the walls were painted pink giving it a more feminine texture other maids got a room just like mine it's obvious Lord Elliot is very generous with his workers no wonder Ariana and co forget their place.
I was certainly going to miss my room the room was still a mess and I hope they get it fixed to its old form. picking the few clothes I went ahead to stand in front of the mirror I admire myself no matter what people say about me I know who I am and I love nothing like I love my self using a band I packed my hair in a rough bun put on a niece green dress lady Lizzy once gifted me. If I am going to leave this place I might as well leave with my head held high.
"You look beautiful " a a cool yet strong voice said
"Ha... "I jumped turning around with my hand dramatically supporting my heart " you startled me."
Eric came forward and hugged me, I rested my head on his broad chest welll,I guess I didn't know I needed that until he did it.
"I'm sorry this is all my fault." He started, I knew he was being honest I felt bad too because of me two brothers now hate each other guts so I did what I've never done before
I kissed him softly, it was a short shy kiss he was surprised and so was I, I never imagined I could initiate a kiss when I wanted to back off he held my waist with one hand and my neck with the other kissing me deeper now I regretted initiating the kiss I feared he was not going to let me go not like I want to though . the kiss was hot and urgent I don't know what would become of me but one thing I know is I am crazy, about this guy. So fuck everything else.

Eric pov
"Why would you do that Lizzy, " I yelped
Lizzy didn't care and went to pour herself a drink Elliot like always was able to conceal his emotions.
I waited for him to say something but even he went to pour himself a drink completely ignoring me. ooh, I swear when all this is over he will suffer for all the disrespect.
"Look Eric that girl is bad news you already have a wife or have you forgotten?"Elliot sneered. taking a sip from the glass, the sight irked me to the bones
"Well, I scoff at that what do you know I mean look at you no woman wants to even be with you."
His grip on the cup tightened breaking it and that brought a smirk to my face he is so easy to irk.
With a tight fist if not for Lizzy I am sure round 2 would have started again.
"Well if you are going to chicken out like always then excuse me, and for the record, Mae is coming with me."
And so hands in the pocket I strode out to find my lily that's when I heard her colleagues insult her I wanted to rip each one apart but I knew that could wait Mae went to her room and I followed the say me and instantly stopped talking I also halted my steps and gave them the coldest stare
"Well, we have dinner I said to lex making him do a happy dance with an evil smirk I left there.
I was planning to leave in two days but I guess I would leave now I can't stand Elliot for a minute more.
So I mind-linked Xavier to get everything prepared and to get me a room in any hotel I am taking my girl out of this fucked up place she deserves more than this.
Arriving in her room she was staring at the mirror then she packed her hair into a bun for a minute I was lost in her beauty she is perfect.
` shes, not your mate ' Lex pointed out sadly, I don't need a mate when I have her "we are the strongest pair, Lex, I don't need a mate to make me stronger I would leave that for my pathetic brother"
Lex wasn't happy but like always he respected my wish, he is the best wolf I could ever ask for my wolf is black just like Rex my brothers wolf our wolf is like no other while Lex has blue eyes Rex had Red .but like the owner Rex is useless.
She still hasn't noticed me so I Spoke she mini jumped in fright when she complained I startled her.
I knew I had a great effect on this girl but the instant she kissed me I froze like literally and when she wanted to shy away I grabbed her no way I would let her tease me like that.
After the steaming kiss, we were now both gasping for breath "I love you, Mae, " a tear came out of her eyes as I said that with a deep breath she open her eyes
"I am sorry Eric, as much as I would love to say the same something keeps clouding my mind leaving me in a confused state"
You don't have to say anything my love for you is enough for us both.
I am leaving this place but I want you to come with me. Her eyes opened like a saucer and after deliberating in her head she nodded I couldn't contain the joy so I hugged her tight, "ooh, Mae you have made me the happiest man and with a peck on the cheeks, we left the mansion never to return.
