When I opened my eyes, the sunlight streaming through the window hit my face, making it impossible to keep them open–or to go back to sleep.

Groaning, I grabbed my pillow and pulled it over my face, trying to block out the light. But just as I was about to drift off again, a knock at the door shattered my peace.

“Young Miss.”

The familiar voice of one of my maids made me wince. It felt like an annoying buzz in my head.

“Go away. I’ll wake up later,” I mumbled under the pillow.

“Young Miss, the Alpha is calling for you. You need to get up.”

I stayed still for a moment, teetering on the edge of sleep, but another knock forced me back to reality. Frustrated, I threw the pillow aside and sat up with a scowl.

“What?!” My voice came out rough and hoarse, and the moment I yelled, a sharp pain shot through my throat. My head throbbed like hell.

I clenched my jaw and forced myself to speak louder. “Come in.”

The door opened, and my maid stepped inside, carrying a tray. On it sat a glass of water, a steaming cup of coffee, and a small packet of pills.

I patted the space beside me, and she set the tray down on the bedside table.

“Miss, Alpha said you should take this medicine,” she informed me.

I blinked at her in confusion. “Medicine? What for?”

“For your headache.”

My frown deepened. “How does my brother know I have a headache?”

Her lips twitched slightly. “You came home drunk last night.”

At her words, my eyes widened. Memories of last night rushed back, hitting me like a tidal wave.

I slapped a hand over my mouth. “Oh… right. That happened.”

The maid chuckled at my reaction. I quickly dropped my hand and cleared my throat. “What’s so funny?”
