Chapter 243
Ella
The maid's face went as white as a sheet, mouth opening and closing wordlessly as she tried and failed to come
up with a response to my accusation.
Alexander turned towith a curious expression on his face. “Is that true? She made you sleep on the floor last
night?”
I nodded. “Yes. She said it was, and | quote, “her room, her rules”. I'd either need to find another room to sleep
in or get used to sleeping with the rats. | didn’t want to cause any trouble, so | obeyed and took the floor.”
Murmurs rippled throughout the room. The maid's face went from white to beet red. Alexander raised his hand
to silence the whispers and looked at the maid. The guilty expression on her face revealed everything. Alexander
crossed his arms. “That room has two bunks for a reason. Why did you make the new nanny sleep on the floor?”
“But | didn’t-"
“Tellthe truth.”
Alexander’s Alpha Voice seeped into every word. The air seemed to turn thick with his authority, causing every
head in the room-even mine-to tilt and expose the neck. My body felt like it wasn’t mine, as if an invisible
hand were forcing my head to tilt.

Was this how Gabriel felt when | used my Luna Voice on him again and again? Like a puppet, unable to fight the
strings being held by his master?
I knew I shouldn't feel guilty over using my Luna Voice on Gabriel, but right now... It wasn’t easy not to. Maybe
| had abused my power by using it so often. Especially when | forced him to stay silent throughout my family’s
party.
Finally, trembling, the maid admitted meekly, “Y-Yes, Alpha. It's true. | made the new nanny sleep on the floor
because | was angry that | was forced to share a room with someone | don’t even know.”
Alexander held the maid's gaze for a moment longer, causing her to tremble and look down at her hands. Then,
all at once, his power receded. The force of it suddenly ripping from the room-like a tidal wave being sucked
back into the ocean-was so great that | had to grip the table next toto stay upright.

Finally, | could breathe again. | decided then and there that if | ever somehow managed to becLuna again,
however unlikely that may be, that | would only use my Luna Voice if absolutely necessary.
“Thank you for tellingthe truth.” He smoothed down the front of his suit jacket. “I'm relocating you to
another room. Move your things immediately. And consider this a formal warning, not just to you, but to
everyone.”
Alexander turned to address the entire staff. Cold green eyes swept over the room before landing on me. After
what just happened, | felt the urge to lower my gaze, but | didn’t. | held onto his stare.
“If I hear of any one of you abusing your fellow staff again, you will be fired. I'm not in the business of giving
multiple chances these days. You.” He gestured to me. “Cwith me.”
Heart pounding, | glanced at Lilith, who simply nodded encouragingly and held Lucien tightly. | hated the idea of
leaving my son behind, but I followed Alexander anyway.
As he leddown the hall to his office, however, | began to fear that that was the last t| might see Lucien
ever againn-Alexander knew | had tampered with the food and, since it was only my first day, he was probably
going to firefor causing trouble.
When | entered his study, Alexander gestured to his desk and said, “Take a seat. Your official pack paperwork is
ready.”
