Ralph's Point Of View
As soon as we got back to the palace, it was extremely late at night, and there was no possibility that father would till be awake at this moment. Even though he might have had a little sleep after today's event.
Liam made his way to his room while I did the same, but at this moment, It was not as relaxing as I thought it would be; one of the maidens was on my bed, fully naked.
She had fallen asleep!!
"Hello, I think you missed your room for some reason, or isn't this mine?" I looked around to be certain it was my room, and obviously it was mine. So why on earth would she choose to stay in my room, for goodness sake?
She stirred at me with sleepy eyes, looking around to check for whatever she must be checking. When her eyes fell on me, knowing fully well that I needed my rest now more than ever, she said.
"Excuse me, can you please leave my room?".
I looked around, and my eyes fell to the door. The maids were still sneaking around to see if I would take her to bed. They should definitely not expect something nice from me. Thank goodness, alpha, you are finally back.".
"Please, I would like to have my rest. Can you please my leave to your room?" She looked at me quite disappointed that I was not allowing her to stay in my room or have my way with her.
"I have been waiting for you all night."
"Did you hear what I just said? Where is thr guard?" He must have heard or might have been listening in with the way he walked right in immediately, I mean, needing his attention. "Your highness.".
He bowed down and waited for my next order. "What's happening here? Why is she in my room? and in this manner, "I pointed towards the now shy lady."You are disrespecting me in the presence of your guard; don't I have the right to be with you for a night?"
She said shyly, "I did not ask you to come to my room. How did you get here in the first place?"
She didn't respond to my question, but the guard did.
"Your highness,she came up to me earlier tonight and said that you had asked her to come to you tonight as it was her turn to spend the night with you. I tried refusing her entrance, but she threatened to report to your dad.".
I looked at her with a questioning eye and said,
"I am not leaving if that's what you are thinking; I am here to stay, and that's the final"
Resting back on the bed and getting comfortable, I asked, "What is your name?" That was the only question I could think of right now.
"Janet!" She angrily said to me,
"Okay" Janet, I am still your alpha. I am telling you to stand up and leave my room right now." She sat up back and looked at me, smiling.
"No, I won't leave.".
She said as she slept on the bed and backed my guard, I didn't wait for anything else. I walked out of the room and optioned to spend the night somewhere else, which was the room right next to mine.
It was always neat initially since it was my safe place. I laughed at what just happened. It was easy for her to give me her body to win the competition, but I am not interested in doing that. I will have to see my father tomorrow.
I can't continue like this; my life might be in danger.
I rolled in bed throughout the night, but early in the morning I was able to get myself back to sleep, only to be woken up by my beta.
Alpha please don't tell me you spent the night here in this room?!!"
"What does it look like to you?"
My beta laughed at my predicament, which was quite funny, truly. I sat right up with a heavy eye, looking at my beta, who was looking healthy as always.
"How is your mate? It has been a long time since I have seen her."
"She is fine, breathing well, and the baby is doing fine too." Yeah, my beta and his mate are expecting a cute pup.and I can't wait to tease him more. "That is such great news to start the day with.".
Forgetting that I had an unwanted guest in my room, I walked out of the previous room and made my way into the next one, which was mine, only to still meet the same lady sprawled on the bed with no courtesy.
There was no atom of respect for her alpha.
"Oh, now I see the reason why you didn't spend the night here. I thought you were too tired to make it to your room. Hmmmnn, such a fine view." He laughed at his words, but they were funny to me.
"Guard, come here now." My angry vice woke her up. "My alpha you didn't spend the night with me; it's not fair," she said, pouting. I walked closer to the bed, but a few centimetres away from her.
"Do you still want to remain in the competition?" She shook her head in response timidly. "So, my dear Janet, if I were you, I would stand up and move down to wherever I came from and never come back. Are we clear?"
I stepped back and walked into the washroom. I do not have all day for this, as I have to speak to Father before anything else happens today. My beta was laughing all the way through. Who wouldn't? I would do same if I was in his position.
"Why are you just enjoying it as it comes? Opportunity comes, but once, my man." I smiled at him. "Let's see if you can defend that in front of your mate. Then I will accept that, and so as you wish." I looked away from him.
As he laughed, "You wouldn't want to do that to me, your friend. You know how my mate can be so jealous." I looked at him again and said.
"Try me, man!!!".
