The Dark Lady's assistant was one of the few people who knew that her Lady was not as much of a dangerous tyrant as people often thought her to be.
She had been there, as a lowly maid, when the Dark Lady had stumbled through the beginning of her reign, trying to get her bearings and trying to do good - while everyone shunned her, feared her, tried to sabotage her, and tried to manipulate and deceive her, all at the same time.

Not even her allegiance or loyalty.
So, in her eyes, the Alpha, the one who'd succeeded in winning over her Lady, was the dangerous element to be watched.
