Chapter 30

Chapter 30.

Emily’s POV.

I stood at a spot a few feet away from Nelly’s room, straining to hear any sound from within. I expected to hear Kex’s raised voice or Nelly’s sobs, but all I could hear was silence. I knew getting any closer would put me at risk of being discovered, but my curiosity was too great to resist.

I tiptoed forward, my heart pounding in my chest. As I drew closer, I could hear faint voices from within. I pressed my ear to the door, trying to make out what was being said.

I heard footsteps coming closer, and I quickly ducked into the shadows. Kex came storming out of the room, his face red with anger. He strode down the hall towards his room, and I held my breath, praying he wouldn’t notice me.

But then, I saw Aisha heading in my direction. I was trapped, with nowhere to hide. I held my breath, hoping she wouldn’t spot me. She opened the Nelly’s door, and then she was gone.

Het out a silent sigh of relief as I stepped out of my hiding place, straightening my dress and pasting a smile on my face. I could see the maid standing down the hall, but my eyes were drawn to Nelly’s room. Should I eavesdrop on Nelly’s conversation, or should I try to hear what Kex had to say?

I was torn between curiosity and caution. What if I got caught? But then again, what if I missed important information? I stood there, frozen, not knowing what to do.

I heard the two maids talking as they passed by me. “You need to see Alpha right now,” one of them said to the other. “He is furious.”

I smiled to myself, realizing I had just learned some valuable information. If Kex was angry, it meant that Nelly was in trouble. A mischievous smile played across my lips as I turned to walk away. It seemed my curiosity had paid off.

I knocked on Kex’s door, but there was no answer. I knocked again, but still nothing. Finally, I heard the sound of something crashing from inside the room.

“Kex, open the door!” I yelled, banging on the door with my fist. There was no response, and I tried to turn the doorknob, but the door was locked.

“Kex, please!” I yelled, my voice cracking with desperation. “Open the door, please!” But my pleas were met with only silence.
