Betrayed by Blood, Claimed by the Alpha-Chapter 133

Betrayed by blood~

The maid who held Avery’s arm grinned, seeing the shocked look she wore. She nodded proudly as she looked around. "Are you shocked? Shocked that this many of us are tired of your bullshit. You think we don’t see you? First, you were taken out of the servants’ quarters and to your own private room. You get to pick and choose whatever chore you want. Now, you warm Alpha Cain’s bed. You really can’t do anything without spreading your damn legs for it, can you? First, you fucked Sir Xander, and now Alpha Cain! At least have some shame, you whore!"

The words cut through the air, each one more venomous than the last. Avery’s face flushed with anger, her fists clenched at her sides as the maid’s words echoed in her mind. She had no idea where this kind of hate had come from.

The maid who had grabbed her wrist grinned, clearly enjoying the effect her insults had on Avery. She leaned in close, her breath hot and rancid as she continued, "I bet you think you’re untouchable now, huh? You think you can just sleep your way to the top, but we all know what you really are. A whore, a plaything for the Alpha." She sneered.

"You come in here drenched in his scent like a whore. You couldn’t have the decency to mask his scent, could you?" She spat out, her eyes filled with disgust.

Avery’s blood boiled, the sting of the word "whore" digging into her like a spear. She jerked her arm free with a forceful tug, the maid’s grip slipping from her wrist as she took a step back.

"Don’t you dare talk about me like that," Avery snapped. "I’ve done nothing but do my work like I should, and what do you do? Is it just my fault if you think lesser of yourself?" Avery spat out bitterly.

The maid looked taken aback, a disbelieving scoff escaped her lips. "What? Are you really talking to me in such a demeaning manner?" She hugged out, turning to look at her minions. "See? I told you all she thinks she’s better than us."

One of the minions stepped forward, her hand crossed over her chest. "Is that really what you think of us? That you’re better than us all because you share Alpha Cain’s bed?"

"What does it matter asking her? She thinks she’s better than us. Thinks she’ll find more favor with Alpha Cain. Do you people not see how she acts? How pompous she’s become? Even to Lady Kendra! She’s turned Alpha against us. It’s all her fault. Ever since she came into this pack. Nothing has gone right for any of us. Now it’s whatever Avery Jae wants."

The other maids began to circle Avery, their eyes hungry with malice, waiting for the inevitable retaliation. One of them sneered, her voice dripping with disgust. "She’s right, though. You’re nothing but a little slut, climbing the ranks on your back. All the other girls might put up with it, but not us. We’re done being quiet while you get everything handed to you."

Avery’s heart pounded hard, her hands trembling. They planned this.

Before Avery could say a word, the maid’s hand collided with Avery’s face. The slap was harsh, knocking her head to the side, and the sting burned on her skin. Avery’s vision blurred for a second as pain lanced through her cheek, but she didn’t flinch.

Avery’s jaw clenched hard, she wiped her cheek tightly. "What the hell have I done to you?" Avery screamed. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Without hesitation, Avery whipped her head back toward the maid, her hand shooting out in retaliation. Her palm cracked against the maid’s cheek with force. The sound of the slap echoed through the stables, and the maid staggered back, eyes wide in disbelief.

The other maids froze for a split second as though they couldn’t believe she’d done just that. The maid who Avery slapped held her cheek, her eyes burned with anger and before a word could be let out, she lunged for Avery. She grabbed Avery by the shoulders and shoved her back, knocking her into a nearby stall. Avery scrambled to regain her footing.

"You think you can fight back?" the maid hissed, advancing on her. She grinned maliciously, her fingers curling into Avery’s hair. She yanked hard, pulling Avery’s head back, sending a jolt of pain through her scalp. "You think you can fight us?" the girl sneered, her breath hot against Avery’s ear. "You’re nothing. You’re just a whore who thinks she can be better than us."

Avery hissed in pain, she swung a leg, trying to kick the maid in the side, but the girl moved out of the way just in time. Before Avery could react, another maid lunged at her, grabbing her by the waist and dragging her to the ground.

The others immediately jumped on her, pressing her down with their weights. They yanked at her clothes, pulling at her hair, their hands slapping and scratching at her face. One of them managed to rip a chunk of her hair free, and Avery cried out, but instead of staying down, she dug her heels into the dirt floor and threw her body forward, knocking the girl holding her waist off balance.

The first maid who had slapped her grabbed her by the shoulders, trying to hold her down while the others scrambled to hold her still. Avery twisted and thrashed, kicking out with her legs and slapping them with the back of her hands. She couldn’t let them win.

"Bitch, you’re gonna regret this!" one of the maids shouted, her fingers digging into Avery’s neck as she tried to choke her. Avery twisted her body, trying to break out from her grasp but the others were on her immediately, dragging her arms behind her and forcing her down.

From where Avery was struggling, her gaze shifted towards the stable door and she saw her, Kendra. She stood by the door, her arms crossed over her chest, a sinister smirk on her face as she watched the girls pile on Avery.

"You don’t belong here!" one of the maids shrieked, her voice trembling with rage. "You think you can take everything from us? We won’t let you."

Avery was struggling to breathe, her chest tight with the weight of the girls on top of her. She wasn’t going to let them win. Not now. Not ever again.
