Chapter Twenty Three: MRS MADELINE TEA PARTY 1
” oh yes, we are going to have the mansion all to ourselves tonight!!!” Dorothy yell sounding so excited ” but a little bird told me our little Betty is going with alpha Verdun ” hearing my name I quickly look at Dorothy, her face fill with smiles.
” what are you talking about ” faking a laugh I notice everyone in our little group is looking at me, Dora, Dorothy and Mona.
” is it true??” Mona ask, she look so excited when I nod my head gently ” oh my god, Betty is getting married ”
” is just a tea party Mona ”
” because he ask her to join him at a tea party doesn’t mean anything ” Dora interjects, she sound angry for some reason ” don’t get too excited Betty, you will always be a maid to him” I watch her leave the garden. Ever since I knew her, she has been cold towards me, like she hates me but then I have never done anything to her.
” don’t listen to her ” Dorothy mumble still smiling ” so do you have a dress for the party ” taking another bite from my apple I nod.
” Verdun said he will send a dress to my room ” when am done speaking I watch their surprise face like I said something they couldn’t believe ” what is it ”
” wait!!” Dorothy shake her head then clean her ears ” you said who??”
” Verdun” furrowing my brows I purred ” is it too hard for him to send a dress ” Mona and Dorothy still look shocked, what’s so surprisingly that they look out of words, Mona cleared her throat.
” you call him Verdun not alpha Verdun and am thinking you usually call him that in his presence ” I nod and they both gasp still looking shock, I mean that is his name right.
Dorothy quickly mumble ” the last person that called him just that died, alpha Verdun feed him to the crocodiles in the mansion ”
” he has a crocodile??? ”
” well yes, its released only at night. When no one is to leave ” Mona interject ” it kills whoever step out of his or her room so you need to be careful”
” how many are they ??”
” five ” Jones answer stepping into the garden and surprisingly kissing my cheek, the two girls open their lips in a o shape, he withdraw and I look around happy that Verdun didn’t see that ” are you planing on running away?? ”
” no ” answering him Mona smile on her lips widen ” well well well, Jones didn’t tell us about his little crush on our Betty “my face must have turn red from embarrassment.
” is nothing like that Mona ” I groan
” of course not ” Jones smile ” you girls should know I don’t do crush, I plan on marrying her ” he lean close and take a bite from my apple then start chewing, his gaze not leaving mine ” still waiting for her answer ”
” uh huh, this is surprising ” Dorothy high five Mona before Jones shake his head ” I have got to go Mona, Dorothy. See you two later ” he turn to my direction and wink ” see you later Betty ” watching him leave I count to five and immediately after that the girls start bombarding me with questions.
” ladies!!” Lifting my hand I watch both of them shut it ” I have to prepare for the tea party and no am not marrying Jones, will tell him that later ”
” why not??” Mona whine ” he is so handsome and hardworking ”
” I will totally marry him if I were you ” Dorothy interject
” I don’t love him ” standing to my feet I smile ” I have to get changed and maybe think about Jones offer ”
” yea, you should do that ” they both mumble and I nod to that before walking to my room, different questions still in my head, I do know that I can’t end up with Jones, Verdun will kill him and am sure if he learn that Jones kiss my cheek he will get upset.
I still can’t stop thinking about what happened last night in my room, the kiss, the way he hold me, it was perfect but I can’t help to think that he still see me as just his mistress not someone he should marry.
I don’t wish to use Jones, he deserve better than that ” if it isn’t the man snatcher ” hearing Stella voice I frown then turn around, she look so angry and I know what this is about. the party.
” what do you want Stella ” standing in the hall way I fold my hands already feeling agitated
” what do you know about tea parties ”
” they drink tea ” furrowing my brows I chuckle ” is not my fault Verdun find you….what was his words again??? Childish? Yes childish ”
” how dare you” she rise her hand to slap me but Nolan caught it in the mid air ” let go of my hand Nolan ” her blue eyes glitter with annoyance but Nolan only smile while holding a blue dress.
” only if you promise not to hit our Luna ”
” our Luna??” Stella gasp and step back, looking shocked ” alpha Verdun has a mate??? I don’t believe this” watching her move upstairs, Nolan try stopping her but she won’t listen so I just shrug, I have never been upstairs before, I wonder what’s in there that no one is allowed to see.
” do not dream of going upstairs ” another of Verdun man step closer ” call me Edward, alpha Verdun beta ”
” hi ” feeling weird I watch Edward pull Nolan to a corner, sure I won’t be able to listen to their conversation but I did anyway.
” why do you keep calling her Luna even after alpha warn you ” Edward grunt and Nolan shrug.
” why not, I don’t see alpha Verdun anywhere here ”
” you do know that the more people that find out Verdun has a mate will try to kill her and you know why ”
” yes I know why they don’t want Verdun having a mate for the second time ”
” plus” Edward give me a glance, smiling ” you never told me Verdun have a thing for fragile and pale ladies ”
” am surprise as you are Edward ” they both look at me, still smiling like I didn’t hear what they just said.
” I heard what you were saying ” folding my hands they both walk towards me and start pleading “alpha Verdun shouldn’t know we call you an eye sore ”
” what’s an eye sore??” Asking they both look at each other then breath out, relieved I don’t know the meaning but I plan to find out soon.
” its means beautiful ” Nolan smile ” here is your dress, see you at the party and do not go upstairs, never. ” with that they both left as quickly they came, Laughing I shake my head, Verdun friends are nice, better than him if you ask me and I do plan on finding out what’s upstairs.
Verdun remain lost in thoughts as he look at the different painting in his gallery, if someone is to come here and see all these they will definitely think I have a thing for painting but no, the main reason they are here is because they are still alive, trapped in what I like to call a special dungeon.
A place that when 12 mid night arrive will turn into a burning fire. Though I came here to think because its the only place I can concentrate to think but it still not working.
Am having a battle in five days time, more like meeting the bastard called my father but then I have to prepare, I have tried but Betty keep clouding my mind.
Hearing the knock I frown ” who comes here ” my voice low, no body comes upstairs, no fucking body is allowed in here.
” is Stella ” she didn’t wait for me to respond before shooting questions ” you never told me you have a mate, how can you have a mate and marry me ” when I said nothing she open the door and step in.
The moment she did I watch blood start flowing from her eyes, nose and ear the cries of innocents affecting her ” Verdun??” she try turning around but couldn’t, I watch her fall.
” no body comes upstairs for a reason Stella ” watching her I frown ” you’re too stubborn and look were it got you. Your death”

Chapter Twenty Four: MRS MADELINE TEA PARTY 2 ( KISSING JONES)
Watching Stella unconscious body on the physician bed, Edward and Nolan keep bombarding me with silly questions, I know why she is with me, maybe I forgot my objective of getting married to her or maybe is because she is too silly and doesn’t listen to my words ” and inviting our Luna for Mrs Madeline tea party is horrible, vampires who are searching for a dream walker will be there ” Edward grumble.
” and then if Stella father find out about what happened to his daughter, you will be in a big shit ” Nolan interject, I remain still, listening to their words while drinking my coffee.
” and you do know that your father will beat the shit out of you if this comes out” Edward mumble ” our Luna still need to be kept a secret, we still don’t know what happen between you and Elizabeth ” meeting Edward eyes he ignore my warning and say what he wish ” me and Nolan met you 3998 years ago and that’s why we keep saying that’s your age. We know you are older than that ”
” we also know that whatever your last mate did to you before dieing won’t repeat itself though we have to protect our Luna ”
” are you two done??” Asking Edward shake his head.
” one more thing ” I watch him exhale ” you need to tell our Luna that she can’t go with you to Mrs Madeline tea party, since Stella is unconscious you have to pick someone else ”
” can’t do that ” standing up I look at Stella, her face is so pale that am not sure she will make it, sure her heart is beating but it might stop ” Betty look so happy when I ask her to be my date ”
” since when do our alpha care about women feelings??? ” Nolan asked and I shrug moving towards the window.
” since when that little girl save my life eight years ago ”
” well too bad she died ” Edward mumble ” forget about that dead child, we need to keep news about Stella from reaching the B clan and your father ”
” you over react to everything Edward ” frowning I exhale ” anybody that hear of this should hear, I don’t care if they do. Right now I need a new date to that party, Mrs Madeline won’t be happy if I come alone ”
” I knew you will say that so I found one for you, her name is Dora ” Nolan mutter and at the same time the girl walk in, she has red long hair rolled in a donut, pins holding them then her brown eyes glitter with happiness.
” Dora?? ” mumbling I furrow my brows at the body hugging dress she is putting on, her cleavage in display, she looks familiar ” have I had you before, in my bed??” I have never been shy of saying anything but then, ladies are.
” yes alpha”
” hmm” I watch her cheek turn red ” wait at the carriage, I will go to my room and get ready ” stepping out of the physician ward I move to my room but before I could get to the second floor, Betty stepping into the hall way stop me on my tracks.
Her hair is lose down, those luscious lips begging for attention, her green eyes glitter with emotions I can’t understand, my eyes move to her dress, I pick this dress for her but didn’t expect it to make her look this seductive.
It hugs all her curves, the dress happen to be a handles design, it pop her breast up a little, giving me a view of those marvelous cleavage ” you’re not ready” she mumble, her cheek already red, maybe because of the fact that my eyes have been undressing her.
” yea I….” Clearing my throat I try forming words but it turn out that am speechless, how do I tell her I can’t take her with me.
” aren’t you going to the party anymore??” She asked and I run my hands through my hair ” Verdun???”
” I can’t take you with me amor ” I watch her step back ” you won’t fit in there, you’re a maid after all ”
” oh is that right ” she mumble, folding her hands below her breast, those two enemies of mine are distracting the hell out of me ” so you decided to not take me with you because I will not fit in, because am a maid??”
” well if you say it like that ” biting my lower lip my eyes didn’t bulge from her bouncing breast as she growl at me.
” Verdun!”
Looking up at her I exhale ” is not what you think amor I….” She lift her finger up, shutting me completely, no body have ever done at to me before, I watch annoyance in those eyes.
” please ” she look up at me and I know she is fighting the urge to cry ” if you know you won’t do something, stop giving fake promises” with that she turn around and head back to the servant quarter.
Turning around I discover why she almost cry, Dora is standing behind me, she is almost a maid and am making silly excuse of not taking her because she is one, I made a one.
Damn.
” I said wait for me in the carriage damn it!!!! ” groaning I watch her flinch ” stupid humans ” moving to my room, I take a quick bath, change into a white shirt and black trouser, holding my jacket in his hands before heading out.
Sitting in the carriage I look at Dora ” you know what, get off it, I change my mind ”
” but….” Furrowing my brows I watch her quickly jump off, shutting the door, the coachman start moving the carriage and I close my eyes, I did mess up today.
Betty walk slowly to her room, today she was excited to feel the breeze on her skin once again, to step out of this mansion and see the lovely city but why did Verdun leave me and pick Dora instead ” this is all your fault ” hearing that voice I turn around and the next thing happening is Dora pushing me down and slapping my face, more like a punch.
I could taste blood in my mouth, she is human, I can kill her in a second but I have live my whole life trying to hide my identity, I won’t ruin that now ” why did you hit me ??” Standing up I look at her ” what did I do???”
” maybe if you didn’t fake a cry and talk Verdun against picking me over you, I would have gone out with him ”
” what are you talking about???”
” oh don’t play that stupid game with me ” Dora roll her eyes ” you keep acting like you feel nothing for him but inside I know you love him, you keep trying to steal what’s mine”
” that’s not true, you’re my friend Dora” I mumble ” if he wants to take you as his date why will I stop that ”
” am not your friend, only my sister and Mona are your friends ” she step back looking angry ” I hate you ”
” what are you saying, I should be the one angry, he ask me first before you show up ”
” maybe the moment I show up, you should have back away ” she yell before moving to her room, I remain standing. shocked that all these just happened in one day.
” don’t listen to her ” hearing Jones Voice I turn and look at him leaning on my door ” just like other maid, she has a huge crush on alpha Verdun and when alpha Verdun sleep with her, it grow into obsession”
” oh ”
Jones walk close and touch my cheek, my swollen cheek ” why didn’t you fight back ” looking up at Jones I shrug ” I guess am fragile after all” he chuckle, those dimples appearing again.
” come, let me treat your wound ” nodding he pull me into my room, make me sit down, he step out for a few minutes before coming back with a bowl of ice and a piece of cloth.
Wrapping the ice in the cloth he press it gently on my cheek, the whole room quite before he break the silence ” why did alpha leave you behind ”
” because am a maid ”
” hmm” I watch him tuck my hair behind my ear ” you look beautiful tonight Betty, I can’t believe he rather go alone than with you ”
” like I said, he lack tastes ” Jones chuckle shaking his head, he drop the cloth, lean close and kiss my cheek ” my offer still stand Betty ” his grey eyes burn into mine ” I really do like you ”
I know I shouldn’t have done what I did but I did it anyway, I kiss Jones, my lips press on his while he deepen the kiss and for once I didn’t feel like an object use to satisfy someone lust instead I felt cherished and loved.
