As I walked past everyone, I noticed no one seemed to recognize me. They were all too busy with whatever was more important to them.
A wave of anger surged inside me. I couldn't believe how insignificant I had become. It felt like I didn't matter at all anymore.
*For every pain and shame I am going through, I will make them pay. I will get my honor back. They will have no choice but to notice me and acknowledge me as the most important person in the room,* I thought, walking with renewed courage and determination.
When I reached the table, I joined the other maids, working on the tables near the Alpha's. I carefully avoided serving the Alpha's table, not wanting to risk being seen by him or Mona.
After an hour of continuous work, I was exhausted, but there was no time to rest. I stayed alert, standing beside the table, waiting for any requests. That's when I heard a voice from the Alpha's table.
