Mr Alpha, I Am Not Your Typical Lady!-Chapter 39) Pikabo?/ Mama!.
Chapter 39: Chapter 39) Pikabo?/ Mama!.
I ruffled my hair as I was stressed out. I was a step away from being completely depressed. What went wrong in my life? At least, when I was a human and had my mind - reading power, life was manageable for me. But now, I am overwhelmed. I am starting to doubt my entire existence.
"Pikabo?".
"Pikabo?".
I mused when I heard children’s voices. To be sure I wasn’t hallucinating, I pinched my cheeks. "Ouch".
’Why did you hurt yourself? Is it because of the children’s voices? You are not dreaming. I heard the voices too’. Elektra mind - linked me.
I sighed in relief as Elektra said that to me. I was glad that she heard the children’s voices too, unlike that time when I heard that gentle voice, but she couldn’t hear it. By gentle voice, I mean the moon goddess’ voice. But, it’s still unbelievable to me that the moon goddess spoke to me. Was it truly her? Or was someone impersonating her?
"Mama?".
"Mama?".
’Ma- mama?! Where the heck are these voices coming from?! How dare the voices call us mama, Clara?!’. Elektra asked me, and my eyes darted towards the eggs in my front, before I focused my attention on them and stared closely at them.
I know this may sound hilarious to say, but I strongly believe that the children’s voices are coming from the eggs.
’No way. Was it the eggs?’. Elektra exclaimed and gasped in disbelief. I think she has already figured out my thoughts.
"I think so, Elektra". I said to her. My attention and my eyes never left the eggs’ side.
"Mama!"
"Mama!".
Hearing the excited voices again, I became certain that the voices belonged to the eggs. Before I could predict what would happen next, the eggs’ shells began to crack, shocking me.
My instinct acted up, and I leaped from the ground and stood on my feet.
My actions caused me to hiss in pain. I had hit my injured feet hard on the ground. And my back cracked when I stood on my feet. It was at this moment I felt intense pain in my back, shoulders and the back of my neck. The pain was obviously caused by the bag of rocks I had carried.
Massaging the lower part of my back with my hand, I muttered, "What kind of tiny creature is inside the eggs?".
I was anticipating something to come out of the eggs, as the eggshells had cracked.
The knock on the door made me jump as I flinched.
"Alpha Anastasia, I’m here with the ointment". Valerie, who must be standing outside my room right now, said to me.
I acted quickly.
I didn’t want her to see the eggs, so I took them and hid them inside the drawer I saw.
"Come inside, Lady Valerie". I ordered her, and she entered my room.
This time around, her two assistants were with her. One of them was holding an ointment, while the other one was holding a white bandage.
They bowed and acknowledged my presence, before arising.
"Mara, help our Alpha freshen up. And you, Maya, retrieve our Alpha’s clothes and have them washed. Also, clean the blood stain on the floor". Valerie instructed the two ladies.
"Yes, lady Valerie". Mara and Maya replied to her.
"Please, follow me to the bathroom, my Alpha, let me help you freshen up". Mara said to me after giving the ointment she was holding, to Valerie, who requested it.
I get it. Mara, who is the one leading me to the bathroom, has blue hair and brown eyes, and is taller than Maya. While Maya has brown hair and hazel eyes.
I followed Mara to the bathroom without complaining. I needed to freshen up. Maybe my troubled mind will be at ease.
....
Many minutes later,
I got out of the bathtub after Mara had finished washing my body using a blue sponge. She had also dried my wet golden hair with a towel.
I wore the ash-coloured slippers that were in my front, since I did not want to continue staining the floor with my blood.
Yeah, as I got into the bathroom, my blood stained the bathroom floor.
But, Mara took care of it after I got into the bathtub and sat on it.
Mara went and picked out one of the bathrobes that was hung on the towel hooks using hangers.
It was an ash bathrobe.
She helped me put it on.
"My Alpha, the rumors are true. You are strong. You didn’t even express any pain when your injured feet touched the water. You are so strong that there’s no need for beta Damien to protect you. At first, when Beta Damien declared he would protect you and fight on your behalf, many thought you were weak and couldn’t defend your Alpha position. Of course, I didn’t believe you were weak, because, if you were weak, how were you able to kill those rogue werewolves’ leader and those wild beasts I recently heard about?". Mara smiled throughout as she said to me. She was extremely happy, as if she was proud I was strong.
I stood there puzzled as I stared at her. When she was in the presence of Valerie, she didn’t dare talk too much. I never knew she was talkative.
She gasped as my eyebrows furrowed. "I apologize, my Alpha. Forgive me for crossing the line". She pleaded and bowed her head.
"Follow me out. I need to get dressed".
"Yes, my Alpha!". She replied to me and followed me out of the bathroom without hesitation.
Upon coming out of the bathroom, Valerie approached me with the white bandage and the ointment in her hands. She politely requested that I sit on the sofa, as she wanted to apply the ointment to my injured feet.
I sat down on the sofa and allowed Valerie to do whatever she wanted to do. She opened the ointment and applied a decent amount to both my feet. After doing that, she bandaged both feet.
’This is unprofessional. The wound isn’t that deep. Why did she have to bandage my feet?’. I thought and tried not to laugh.
I remembered that Anastasia was a spoiled brat. This kind of treatment and care was normal.
Valerie wanted to help me stand on my feet, but I instantly and straightforwardly rejected her help. I stood up on my own and went into my new dressing room with Mara.
However, Valerie stubbornly followed us, because she believed that Mara would not be able to dress me to look like an Alpha.
Maya, who had returned from washing my clothes, stayed behind.
A few minutes later, I was wearing a long black strapless dress that perfectly covered the Phoenix tattoo on my leg. I have learned from my mistake.
The dress I wore at the social event, only the back of the dress was long. But the front of the dress passed my knees only a little bit. And the Phoenix tattoo formed on the side of my right leg.
Seriously, why couldn’t the elders, Beta Damien and my citizens secretly warn me about it? What about Valerie? Why didn’t she warn me about it? Wasn’t she there when Mara and Maya helped me wear the dress?
Maybe they were all preoccupied and could not see the Phoenix tattoo?
I hope it is the same thing for the invited werewolf packs and Alpha Dylan. I hope they didn’t see the Phoenix tattoo.
I should stay positive. Maybe that camera sound I heard earlier must have captured another person, not me.
But, what about that strange presence I sensed?
I am not too powerful when it comes to sensing auras and others. But surprisingly, I was easily able to sense that person’s sweet presence, and it was not as if the person was standing next to me.
Anyway, Valerie, Mara and I left the dressing room.
"I would like to have a word with you alone, Lady Valerie". I told her after we left the dressing room.
Mara and Maya understood my point. They bowed their heads and left my bedroom together, leaving me and Valerie.
"Alpha Anastasia, I’m all ears". She said to me while paying attention to what I would say.
"Did my mother tell you about the dream she had? I want you to tell me about it".
