Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 138

138-Smile For Me, My Alpha King

Maura’s POV:

It’s been a few days since Alpha King Zane saved me from my father’s wrath, but I knew the money he gave my father wouldn’t be able to keep me safe for much longer. My father had already wasted half of it on his drinking problems and was going to lose the rest gambling.

He didn’t have to buy food or anything for the cows. He would make me sing for them, and that would be enough to keep the cows healthy for a few days.

I don’t know how I got these powers, but that had been the only reason I was living. I have been a late bloomer, so while I waited for my wolf to wake up, my powers saved me from many troubles.

“Maura! There is a customer waiting for you,” Pamela said when walking into the backroom, where I was helping her cook.

We didn’t have many helpers because my father would rather save the money for himself than pay for any help.

I never got paid for my hard work, and Pamela would re- ceive a very little amount.

“Who is it?” I asked, wondering why the customer didn’t just place the order with Pamela.

“The alpha King Zane!” she snickered, eyeing me to go see him. “You are lucky that the Alpha King said your name and specifically called for you.” She added, and my body shud-dered.

“I am not going in front of him. Can you please make up an excuse for me and take the order from him?” I requested her, refusing to leave the backroom when he was around. There was something about him that made me extremely shy in his presence.

“Oh, come on! He will get upset.” Pamela was no longer teasing me. She was worried now.

“Please!” I requested again, and with a sigh, she nodded. I watched her leave the kitchen to tend to him. She returned just after a minute and shook her head at me.

“He is asking for you,” she gave up, making me realize he wasn’t going to order or leave until I went out and took his or- der.

That made me a bit icky. It was like he was using his pow- er to get me to do something, and I didn’t like it. My father was enough already to control me; I didn’t want an alpha king to take part as well.

“Thank you for trying. I will care about it,” I told Pamela and grabbed the notepad to leave for his table. The instant | watched him sit there, my heart missed a beat. He looked dev- ilishly handsome in all black. His long arms were resting against the backrest, and his eyes were staring at me through his eyebrows.

“Good afternoon. What would you like to have?” I ap- proached him with a fake smile on my lips and asked him.

He had his finger resting on the menu, pointing at a tuna sandwich.

“Why didn’t you come when I asked you to?” Those were the first words he spoke to me instead of ordering food.
