Lyra was stunned.
"H-How did you know?"
Tessa looked at Lyra in shock but curious as well. They were maid with no access to the packhouse. Lowly maids who meeting high borns was a big moment. How did she meet the Alpha?
"Its true?"
"What is?"
Tessa thought of how she was going to tell Lyra about her meeting with Lady Isolde ever since but the way Lyra accepted everything was beyond her expectations. She had thought Lyra would refuse and deny it.
She wanted to come clean with her. She was her friend. She had practice how she would tread carefully when asking the question but as of that moment she didn't seem to come up with any way to say it.
"Lady Isolde called me...." She started.
"Who is Lady Isolde?" Lyra was confused. She had never met the Lady Isolde or heard about her at least that's what she thought. She didn't have a clue it was Isolde who hit her that other day. I doubt if she even remembers she was hit.
Tessa sighed, "The Alpha's mistress!"
"Kross has a mistress?"
