- Giselle -

"Giselle! Giselle!" I heard someone calling my name as I walked back to my room. I turned round to see Xavier running after me.

My brows knitted as I wondered what he wanted.

"Hey," he said breathlessly as he approached me.

"What?" I looked at him from head to toe.

"Uhm, how are you doing Giselle?" He asked. I did not reply. What was with the pleasantries?

"What?" I asked again so he would go straight to the point.

"Are you not going to answer my greeting?" He asked and I scoffed.

"When did this start? We have not greeted each other in weeks, and all of a sudden, you pull this up? What do you want Xavier?" I retorted.

"Indeed, we have not been in this kind of term with each other but it shouldn't be. For how long are we going to keep brushing each off. At least, we are family now. Your sister is my fiancé and my father, your husband. I don't think there should be any holding back now."

"I don't want to have anything to do with you," I told him. "Not now or ever and not eve

    - Kira -It was the day for the meeting and contrary to the confidence I had felt before now, I became jittery.The ride was prepared and we set out with many guards. Now alone with King Marcus on the ride, I realised how lonely I was.We were going out of the pack. My subconsciousness had to remind me at a critical moment like this that even if I am no longer a maid, I am still a princess recognised only in my own pack and not beyond.I tried to shove off the negative thoughts. I will do fine, I assured myself."How are you holding up there?" King Marcus asked and I managed a smile."I'm doing just fine," I replied, glad my voice did not shake because I was shaking inside like I had a cold.The realisation just dawned on me now that this is more serious than I thought. The atmosphere, the carriage, the expensive attires, the scent of the air around me, everything.Gosh, I should have dropped whatever feeling and pride and listened to Giselle's lectures at least. I saw her look as we

    - Kira -I let out three deep breaths immediately, I got out of the huge building. The darkness had begun to set in and the lights around illuminated the building beautifully.But all these were none of my concern. It was the humiliation back in there that suffocated me more than the fresh air from all the trees here despite the wind blowing in every direction.I should have just stayed back home but no, I was happy to have replaced Giselle and now this. What can take this shame away? Absolutely nothing. I just came here to disgrace myself and I did.Everyone would mock me if they heard this, and Giselle would have a good laugh, of course."So? Princess?" I heard someone say and turned round to look. I was alarmed because I did not know anyone there. A young man was looking at me with a mischievous smile on his face."Who are you?""Prince Morgan," he replied with a feeling of importance. "And I am the team awarding your father this contract."I eyed him."Oh," I said shortly."You're

    - Markus -While Sheka spoke to me, my mind was distracted because I was looking around for Kira. It's been a while since she stepped out and had not returned. I knew well she was not familiar with this environment, and if she wandered too far, she would be lost.The building is quite large, and it would be a double standard embarrassment to start looking for her after the first that happened during the meeting.I was worried she was sulking somewhere."So King Marcus, I am going to relay the next appointment and please, make sure to come along with Princess Giselle. We would have been over with this if only you did," Sheka said and I nodded."Of course, you said that already. I definitely will," I told him."Though we are acquaintances when it comes to my business, you know how professional I can be," he said. "Now that we are having a casual chat, why don't you tell me about this daughter of yours? I mean, all I have heard is rumors but now I have the opportunity to hear it from you

    - Markus -The ride back home was accompanied by silence, and I could understand why Kira would not want to say anything.Perhaps, she was buried in her thoughts as much as I was. I will have to make her understand that things happen for good and that she should not keep feeling bad because of the previous incident.Nobody became an important and respected figure in one day. They earned it. Even if one was already born into a royal home, they would still have to work to maintain it."Uhm, Dad?" She called after a long while in a small voice."Yes, sweetheart?" I looked at her."Are you upset with me?" She asked."Why?" I wondered aloud."I mean, because of what happened at the meeting. I am very sure you are very disappointed and upset. I did not mean for that to happen, really. I am so sorry.""Oh no darling," I smiled at her. "It's fine. Nothing is your fault and I do not regret taking you with me. If I had my way, I would take you everywhere I go.""Thank you so much, dad.""Listen

    - Kira -I was up very early the next morning as Mother had instructed and dressed to meet King Markus, my father, just like we had planned.She walked into the room when I was almost done with a tray of hot food."Are you ready?" She asked and I nodded."Good. I'm done as well.""But mum, I am a bit sceptical," I told her. "Is this really a good plan? What if it doesn't turn out well?""Trust me it will. Just do as I say, sit back, relax and see how the drama unfolds.""I am just saying because I know how the King loves Giselle so much," I stated."The king is also your father. You should never forget that. Besides, can't you see how much he is trying to prove to you he loves you? He'd do anything to gain your love as well.""But where Giselle is concerned? I might not be able to compete with her," I complained. Mother frowned deeply."Why are you so pessimistic? You have to see yourself as important as well. It is the way you carry yourself that others will relate to you. And if you

    - Giselle -"Giselle? Darling?" I heard someone call my name in my sleep and a familiar scent hit my nose. "Honey wake up.""No please," I said sleepily, turning to the other side of the bed."It's morning. Remember you said you wanted to make breakfast for your father? Look the sun is already shining."And to that, I jumped up and looked around. Truly, the sun was shining outside already."Oh my goodness, why didn't you wake me up since?" I turned with accusing eyes to Franklin and he looked stunned."I tried several times but you just wouldn't get up. Even now, you do not want to. You should be thanking me."I rushed out of the room to prepare something for my father. I decided to because he looked exhausted from yesterday's meeting and I didn't want him to stress any much today.I hurried to his room with the light breakfast I could afford to prepare with time. He was already up and looked like he had freshened up.Oh, Giselle, why are you such a sleepyhead? I chided myself. Thankf

    - Giselle -So I had to go to Kira's room, father following closely behind. Everything happening before me was very funny like I was watching a movie or something. The fact that Father was even behind me to confirm that I did take the file to Kira was more ridiculous.Anyway, we got there and I knocked impatiently at her door. Kira appeared with an innocent look on her face one wouldn't believe she lied about me coming to her."Is anything the matter?" She asked with feigned confusion."Kira, did you-" I started when Father cut me short."Can you let us in?" He said and she opened the door wider."Sure," she said. "Come in."We entered and she closed the door."Giselle, please repeat what you told me in my room," Father said, and I turned to her."Kira, before you headed for this meeting with Father, I came to you in your room and told you I needed to put you through before you left, and you said you did not need me to do that, yet you told Father otherwise?"She blinked her eyes rapi

    - Giselle -It was a done deal, I knew it already. Everyone knew, because after the meeting, they all gathered around me and Father and were congratulating us.I excused myself from the crowd and stood a few paces away from them with a glass of wine in my hand.Thank goodness I was able to pull through this. At some point, I was scared it might not work because of the emotional riot I had at home before coming to the meeting.I had stood in front of the mirror after dressing for a long time, a worried look on my face. Franklin walked towards me and held me gently."Take a deep breath," he said slowly, and I did. "You'll do just fine."I closed my eyes to the warmth of his body against mine and nodded to his reassurance."Thank you so much, Frank," I smiled. It was not because I thought I was not good enough. It was because of the tension between Kira, me and my father. It could affect me, but thankfully, I handled it well."Cheers to big things," someone said, interrupting my train of

    - Giselle -The hall was extremely silent while I made my presentation with all eyes on me, but I was not shaken. If anything, I was confident, and the looks on their face, especially Sheka's, confirmed to me that they were very impressed.When I rounded up, there was a round of applause."Beautiful!" Alpha Sheka commented. "This is excellent. This is what I am talking about. Before I get too excited, is there anyone that have anything to say?"He looked around the table, and someone raised his hands."Yes, please, go ahead," Alpha granted him the floor."Everything the Princess has said is very innovative, and I am very impressed. They are all good ideas, but I would like to ask her to make some clarifications. She talked about involving other packs in this investment, and I would like to know how she wants to go about it."Alpha Sheka turned to look at me."Gisele, please?""Okay, to answer your question. If you recall correctly, you must have heard me mention the names of the pack

    - Giselle - It was a good day, I could say, because nothing eventful had happened. And by that, I mean the usual hurdles with Kira and her mother. Ever since we found out she was Dad's daughter, I haven't had any peace.I was in the courtyard when a noble man approached me. I could not tell who it was from the distance so I watched until he came closer.It was Jason, Alpha Sheka's assistant. I straightened up to talk to him."Good tidings, my lady," he made a light bow when he got close."Good morning Jason," I greeted. "I was not expecting you."I looked him over, knowing well he did not come for just pleasantries and he mostly does not have the time for that. I could see the envelope in his hands and my guess was right."There is a reschedule for the meeting," he told me. "And I brought the invitation for you. The time and date are all there."He handed me the envelope and I took it."It seems very official," I commented more to myself but he heard."That's because the last time yo

    - Giselle -I should talk to Dad at least. Since the heat of the incident should be reduced by now. I wasn't myself, I was not happy and I could not sleep.I knocked on his door and waited."Come in, Giselle," he said and I wondered how he knew I was the one at the door. I walked into the room slowly and he was seated on the bed as if he was expecting me."You're awake," I stated, more than asking since I could see that he was sleeping."And so are you," he replied with no emotion in his voice. I sighed as I sat on the edge of the bed beside him."I couldn't sleep and I decided I needed to talk to you," I said and he looked at me. "Dad, I am worried. I am worried sick because of what happened earlier. I was very sad because you did not trust me. I've never lied to you and you know how much I prioritise my business. I will not throw it away simply because I want Kira to be disgraced at the meeting. You know I know well that things are not done that way. That meeting was not for Kira al

    - Kira -"What are you doing here?" I shot at her, feeling relieved that it was not someone else like The King or Alpha Franklin."Kira, how much more can you do to make things worse?" Giselle asked me and I grinned."There is only one way to find out," I replied."Why did you lie to father about the document?" She asked, her voice down. There was nothing else she could do but to ask and only if I wished to, would I give her an answer. I am not her maid anymore and I am not answerable to her."I did not lie to him," I shrugged casually. "The truth is I did not know anything in that file.""And that because you blatantly refused to let me tell you all you need to know about it!" She said empathetically and I raised a hand to her face."Hey!" I scowled at her. "Keep it down, miss. Don't raise your voice at me. I did not want you to tell me anything. I have a right to choose what to hear or not and I cannot stand you.""Kira what you did was very stupid and foolish," Giselle shook her he

    - Giselle -I sucked in a deep breath in shock and covered my lips with my hands. I looked at the blank expression on Franklin's face and did not know how I was going to convince him that I was telling the truth."I don't know how this file is here," I told him simply. That was the truth and nothing else. I had no other words aside from that."You don't know how the file is here?" He repeated and I shook my head."I know this is difficult to believe since the file is right here in our room but that is the truth," I said earnestly.He did not say anything further but went ahead to drop the file on the table. I wanted to reassure him, to tell him that I wouldn't do such a thing and that Kira was only trying to set me up but I did not know what to say.He returned to what he was doing while I was just standing there, looking like a fool. Apparently, I was looking for evidence and here it is looking me right in the eye. What is going on?"Frank?" I called softly, walking towards him. "You

    - Giselle -I stopped to glare at her."What now? You don't want to go? Scared you have a skeleton in your cupboard?" She said mockingly."You know what? That's actually a good point. We should check my room then," I agreed to it and dashed out.I did not look back to check if they were following me, but they were, all three of them. I expected Father to have ended this here, to tell me there was no need for me to prove anything, but no, it seems he was more interested in the evidence than everyone else.Franklin was putting a few things in order when we walked in and he looked at us with a confused expression on his face."What's the matter?" He asked, looking at me."Father thinks I did not put Kira through for the meeting she went for and she told him that even when I did. I tried to let father know the truth but it's difficult. Now I have to prove the file is not with me, so he might believe I did take it to her," I explained."Why don't you check with her?" Franklin asked like a
