Chapter 12
Lola’s POV
His new maid? Their new maid? I think the Moon goddess is having too much fun with this.
So many scenarios ran through my head as the Beta, Nathan, led me to the pack house after saying the Luna wanted to see me but this
definitely wasn’t one of it.
I should have allowed Lyla to come with me. She wanted to come because she doesn’t trust Nathan with me but I told her it wasn’t necessary. I regret that decision now.
My eyes found his and I quickly looked away before he could see the tears in my eyes. I got demoted real quick, from a mate to a maid. The thought sounded funny to me and i laughed out loud drawing attention to myself.
“I’m sorry, Luna“, I apologized to the beautiful woman, who looked so young with her beautiful Bambi eyes and shoulder length hair, before me. Her eyes crinkled in laughter and I bowed ny head again.
“It’s totally fine Lola. We all have those moments with our thoughts. and wolves“, she said as she came towards me and patted my cheeks lovingly.
“So, child, you’ll be working as our live–in maid and help me around the house. Oh, I’m so happy to finally have a female to talk to. These guys are so annoying sometimes and to think I have to take care of two overgrown babies myself, it gets lonely sometimes“, she sighed dramatically and put her hands to her forehead exaggeratedly.

I smiled at her antics. She seems friendly and I felt warmth radiate from her. She gives off a motherly vibe.
“Hell yeah, like you remember what that actually feels like“, Jasmine mocked in my head and I almost screamed with excitement from hearing her speak since I left the dungeon.
“Well, well, look who decided to show up. I thought you broke your promise, you sly wolf“, I said with a smile in my voice and she laughed in head.
“I missed you too, Lola. You’re clingy as hell though, I’ve been resting and it hasn’t been 24 hours yet since I last spoke to you“, she said still laughing and I smiled at her through our mindlink.
I heard someone cleared their throat and looked up to find the Luna looking at me with smile in her eyes. Does she knows I’m her son’s mate? Does she know he’s going to reject us? At the thought of rejection, Jasmine whimpered in my head again and I felt very sad for having to put her through all of these.
“So do you know how to cook, sweetheart“, Luna asked me and I shook my head negatively. “Not to worry, I’d teach you everything you need to know“, she said to me and I nodded my head shyly.
“Thank you, Nate. You can leave now or you’ve got something to discuss with Adrian?“. She asked looking back at mate who hasn’t moved a muscle.
Adrian. I looked up at him to find him already staring at me,
goosebumps erupted all over my body and I felt the mate pull which made me look away shyly.
He doesn’t want us. He did not even acknowledge me. I’m sure he doesn’t even find me attractive.
“Cone with me, darling. I’ll show you to your room then we’ll come

back and prepare lunch for us, considering our future Alpha did not have lunch yet“, she grabbed my hand and led me towards the stairs where my mate was standing, still staring at me.
He stood still as we made our way up the stairs. Our shoulders brushed each other when I passed him and I swear, it was like I was
electrocuted, but in a good way. Luna led me down a long hall way and opened up a room that was much larger than Tracy’s own I saw before at the pack house.
My eyes widened to the size of a saucer at how big the room is, it had to be the largest room I’ve seen since forever. It was a plain room with no decorations at all. There were 2 doors inside the room. I knew one led to the bathroom but I had no idea what the second door led to.
It has a Queen sized bed, a love seat by the window and opens into a balcony overlooking the forest.
I wanted to run to the open space and breathe in the fresh air but restrained myself. The Luna has been nothing but nice to me and I did not want to push my luck by misbehaving in her presence.
“You like your new room? I know it’s plain with no decorations at all but you can decorate it to your taste, it’s yours now” She smiled and i looked back at her to find her already smiling at me.
“Yes, Luna. Thank you very much”. I bowed my head at her and she pulled me closer slightly frowning at me.
“Please call me Rose. There’s no need for formality between us, we’ll be living together now, you might as well comfortable“, she told me and I nodded my head quickly.
“What do you say we go back downstairs and whip up something for our hungry wolves?” She asked.
“Okay Lu……Rose“. I said meekly and followed after her.
AT 32%
As we passed the hallway, I caught wind of Adrian’s scent and my eyes widened. The scent seemed to be coming from the third room from
mine. Just great. I knew meeting him at some point is inevitable because I live in his home but third room from mine? I can’t avoid him everyday.
I sighed and followed after Luna Rose. Seeing how Adrian looked to be around 24, of course his mother will be over 40. She looked not a day over 25, her brown hair reached her shoulder and looked so silky I wanted to run my hands through it.
I touched the split ends of my own hair that’s coarse and still tangled. somehow and sighed. I’ll never be pretty enough for anybody.
We reached the kitchen and I could still smell him in the air. Jasmine. sniffed too and sighed longingly in my head and I rolled my eyes at her.
Luna rose moved towards the cooking area and started bringing out ingredients to make dinner making me all excited and happy, even though I tried to keep it under reigns.
We started cooking and it was fun for me. Luna Rose is kind and patient and takes her time to explain things I don’t understand to me. She made me feel comfortable a bit even though I’ve only been around her for less than an hour.
I’m really starting to like this new beginning. I might be rejected by my second chance mate but at least I’m not struggling from abuse and used as the pack’s scapegoat anymore.
I relaxed a bit around Luna Rose as we worked together to prepare food for her mate and Adrian.
I felt eyes on me all the time I spent in the kitchen but shook it off, I’d never be accepted anyways.
