MAIA’S POV
Waking up, I was surprised to find the room cleaned and sparking clean as if nothing had happened here yesterday.
Bella came in immediately too, and bowed. “Good morning Luna, please come downstairs for breakfast”
“When did you clean this place”
She stepped aside for me to see clearly. “Alpha Riot commanded it this morning and I hope you love it”
I smirked upon hearing his name. So he was still nice enough to send maids to clean this place after all that happened yesterday.
Anyway, I have to get ready for my new life as a married woman or should I say married…?
I faced Bella. “Get the bathtub ready for me. I’m having a full body was this morning”
She bowed again before departing to the bathroom.
Last night was hectic and how I woke up still very energetic is surprising. I’d have slept immediately Riot left,but that urge to his past videos on onlyFans made me grab my phone to check.
I wanted to hate him… I told myself as I scroll through his videos, smoking hot but wearing a mask like he always do.
But the feeling I had for the first time in my life for.gim after that night that he replied my DM when I was still dating Jeff came back.
I’d wanted to log out and sleep it off, telling myself that he belongs to Ayra and not me but his life video alert made me stop.
I was surprised that he could still go live in this kind of situation.
I’d checked to see how happy he was, because his live videos was always very sweet and action packed..
But he was just seated, reading comments and not saying anything and not with his usual mask.
I was more confused when he began to talk to me through the live, which was why I left to avoid him embarrassing himself any further because of me.
“Luna, the bath is ready” Bella alerted and I yanked off the bedspread.
A cool and long bath is needed to ward off all the yesterday events.

Now that it’s day break, I was able to see the landscape and everything about the divided mansion very well.
Outside was very beautiful, especially the backyard almost as big as a football pitch.
While exploring the place and slowly advancing to thenl dinning, my eyes then sighted the room that looked as if it hasn’t been opened in forever.
I wanted to walk away, but something held me back.
I strained my neck through the railings— Bella was downstairs with the other maids standing attentively and Riot nowhere to be found.
I was happy because this is my clue. Then I tiptoed there and opened the door swiftly, without having to deal with any locks.
“Strange”
The room was dim, as the oy source of light was the lamb before a small board covered with maps, newspaper clippings and photos of various alphas…including my father at the top corner.
My chest thumped. Why does he have dad’s picture…
Some of the pictures were cancelled with red marker but dad’s is yet to be marked.
I explored the books on the table, and this one shocked me the most because in one of the books, my mother’s name Eunice was pasted at the second page under her picture.
“Is Riot stupid?” I yelled as I picked the lamp to see the room clearly.
Dang it was a torture room. Chains, Cain, nail removers, claws and other dangerous weapon were there, and then a chair that seemed to be for electrocution.
Why would he have my parents name in this kind of room?
I was about to check the other side of the wall when I heard his voice from outside of the room. “Have you gone to call Maia?”
“Yes Alpha” I heard Bella’s response. “She’ll be out soon”
“Tell her I’m not around if she comes” He commanded.
“Yes Alpha” The I heard Bella’s footstep retreated.
Panic seized my heart and I quickly ran to the back of the board to hide as he entered and switched on the light.
Then he walked to the electrocution chair, sat on it and was about to press on, I rushed out.
I couldn’t watch him do that to himself.
He stopped immediately he saw me. “M…Maia.?”
I stood dead in my tracks too. Damn it why did I do it…
But I can’t let him see my inner panic so I faced him confidently. “If you must kill yourself, don’t do it secretly”
“Who says I’m killing myself!!” He snapped. “I go to war and train a lot of men daily, shouldn’t I train myself?”
“Training….?” I blinked as I realized my own stupidity. “Why would you train with hard objects like this?”
He grabbed my hand, ready to pull me out but I didn’t budge.
He stopped and looked at me shockingly. “Wouldn’t you come out?”
Come out my foot after seeing my parents name and pictures in this deadly room. “You have to explain things to me”
“What explanation? After you deleted your message last night?”
“I…” I stopped immediately as I remembered.
Last night!! Yes last night… “I was about telling you to stop the live and sleep… then I realized it’s none of my concern”
Riot let go of my hand and stood before me with raised eyebrows. “So you were concerned about me?”
I stepped back immediately. “Concern about you? Over my dear body!” I rebuked it immediately.
He raised his hand and took of his half mask then I saw his smile. So beautiful…
He stepped closer and I stepped back until my back touched the wall and he was so up close.
“Step back” I said quickly.
“No. I want to see if you really cared for me or not”
His voice was now very intimidating that I couldn’t breathe under his breath.
It last for a second before I regained myself and pushed him back slightly. “Riot step back”
He caught my hands and instantly raised them over my face, pinning it above.
My eyes widened. “Riot what are you doing!!!”
His body pressed against mine, his body temperature almost the same with mine.
“I feel happy anytime I see you…” he paused and grabbed my jaw with his second hand. “You were my first….”
“What….What did you mean?”
He lowered his head. “You took my first kiss and first night….”
My face burned with shame and desire as I remembered that night at the hotel. I'd given my virginity to a masked stranger I only knew as Daddy M, never imagining he'd become my husband.
“See.. you’re blushing” he teased, as his hand slightly brush over my lips.
I froze and glared hard at him. Is he fuckin stupid!!!!!
“Let’s forget about last night, Maia. Let’s open a new chapter for us….Daddy M and Little Wild May. You also can’t deny you fell for me”
Fell for him my foot. “I…” Damnit!! I don’t even know what to say.
He leaned closer. “I used to love you, Maia and I still do…”
Immediately he said that, the next thing I felt was his lips on mine.
