Shirley's POV
"Quick!" I beckoned to Tristan as I knew Tremblay was on his way.
I joined Tristan to drag the body back into the room.
"What do we do?" I asked nervous.
"Uh..." He looked around, confused.
I know he was deliberating on where to hide the body.
However, time wasn't on our side at the moment.
"Wardrobe!" I yelled pointing at it.
"Yes!" He snapped and dragged the body along.
I quickly ran to get the door closed, but unfortunately Tremblay had already appeared there.
I froze at the sight of him, me eyes shot wide open.
"Tremblay...what are you doing here?" My words cracked, my legs felt weak and my eye contact was failing me.
Did he see Tristan behind me? I wondered.
"Are you okay?" He questioned, looking concerned.
I turned back to see if Tristan was still behind me, but he wasn't.
How did he get away so quickly? I wondered.
I looked around for you, didn't know you left the ceremony." He said taking few steps to enter the room, while I staggered back.
"I just wanted some air." I said, trying my best to maintain eye contact.
"Here? You came to get air here?" He was shocked.
The room looked rather stuffy.
I'm sure he suspected that I lied.
He observed my eyes for a while and heaved a sigh of relief before coming closer.
"I'm sorry Shirley. I know I should have told you, but the pressure on me was too much. Telling you about it my just hurt you the more."
He took me by the chin and kissed me.
"Please, come back downstairs with me." He beckoned.
"I'll rather stay here tonight Tremblay." I insisted, not because I didn't want to go, but because the deceased wasn't taken care of yet.
"Come on!" He tried persuading me, but then his breeder called his name.
"Alpha Tremblay," she called, revealing herself while she stooped.
She turned to me, "You must be the Luna. You're as adorable as they said you are."
"I'm Evelyn." She stretched her hand for a shake and I ignored her, crossing my arms.
"It's time for our first night my lord." Her tone was different this time. Seductive and appeasing.
Her eyes looked at me from a corner.
She exchanged her elbow with that of Tremblay's and attempted pulling him gently away.
"I'll check up on you tomorrow okay?" Tremblay voiced while she was taking him out of the door.
"You know, the sooner I give the alpha babies, the sooner I can leave your lives." It seems to me like she was teasing. However, it was rather meant to mock me.
I clutched my fist and grind my teeth.
I slammed the door before me and began panting.
"Shirley." Tristan whispered my name.
He was in the wardrobe, together with the corpse.
I went to him to help him out.
We let the body out through the window and then jumped over.
We dragged the body far from the mansion and had her buried below the hills.
***
I tip toed in the lobby towards our room where I expected Tremblay to be with his breeder.
I just couldn't stop myself from coming to see.
I got to the door that appeared locked and stood still.
Leaning on the wall, I placed my ear close to the door to eavesdrop.
I could hear moans and grunts from the room.
They've started so soon already?
Is this how he craves for her so much?
They have just left my place a moment ago and now they are both naked and unto each other.
I listened attentively to the quick grunts Tremblay exhibited.
He's f*****g her really fast.
He would get exhausted in a moment of time.
Tremblay has never lasted up to an hour in bed. He usually pushes himself to fast during intimacy, which makes him lose his energy quickly.
His actions will only make Evelyn see him as a weakling.
I rolled my eyes as the moans seem to be getting on my nerves.
I leaned against the wall and made a slide to the ground.
My eyes darkened and tears clouded thereafter, but I held back my tears.
I only sniffed in and wiped my eyes.
Maids came passing by with blankets on their hands.
Seems they were off to drop it in a room.
I stood up quickly, pretending to have fallen as I made a faint cry.
One of the maids offered to assist me.
"Sorry my lady." she sympathized and gave me a hand to help me up.
"Thank you." I muttered gently m, giving a wry smile.
The maid's eyes suddenly fixed at the door.
She could hear the moans from the bedroom too. She directed her gaze back to me and realized I was staring at her.
She gave a bow and walked away quickly with the other who waited for her.
When she looked at me earlier, I could see pitiful gaze.
She pitied me.
I hate to feel that way— pitied.
I just can't take the fact that Evelyn is a mere breeder.
I suspect there's something they're both hiding from me.
I have to find out what it is that their keeping a secret.
The door opened all of a sudden revealing Evelyn behind it.
A towel rapped around her waist while she held the door.
My eyes escaped through the opening beneath her arm where I saw Tremblay lying on the bed naked.
He laid there looking helpless and tired.
I see the look on Evelyn's face. She was disappointed as I had foretold.
She smirked at me and then closed back the door.
I even heard the sound of the bolted door.
I gasped and walked away from the room.
As I strolled out of the lobby to the room upstairs, the thoughts of dead woman floods my mind.
Who is she?
Well, since no one searched for her, she wasn't that important I guess.
