Deliana didn't say a word, rather, she shoved the thought off her head and went ahead to get water from the dispenser.
After getting the water, Deliana turned around to leave, but Ruthie stopped her from walking away.“What are you doing, Deliana?” Ruthie asked as she stood in front of Deliana.“What do you mean, Ruthie? I told you that I was asked to get water for the triplets. Have you forgotten that?” Deliana grimaced at Ruthie, trying to use that as an excuse not to accept Gabriella's invitation.“Come on, don't be scared, Deliana. She won't hurt you. I think it's time-critical.” Ruthie pleaded with Deliana.“Okay! Okay! I will go, but I should deliver this water to Luna Alvina before going to Gabriella. Are you happy now?” Deliana smirked.“No, I'm not happy.”“Why?” Deliana frowned at her.“I promise you that it won't take up to a minute, and you are done, please. You just go and attend to her, and she wAfter pouring the water into the jug, Deliana attempted to give it to the youngest child, whose name was Harry. Just as Harry was about to open his mouth to drink the water, their sister, Asher, burst into heavy tears, trying to hold the jug and drag it away from Deliana.Upon realizing that, Deliana quickly pulls the jug away, preventing Asher from touching it.“Hey, Asher, what's that? Allow your younger brother to drink before you, please,” said Alvina to her daughter, thinking that she was trying to overtake her younger brother.After saying that, Alvina expected Asher to stop crying and keep calm, but she didn't. Rather, she let out more tears, fighting hard to get either the jug or the glass cup filled with water.Unfortunately, to their greatest surprise, Asher didn't attempt to stop crying and fighting for the water.Upon realizing that Asher wasn't going to stop crying until she got the water, Alvina said to Deliana, “A
After spending a few time with Alvina, Ruthie left Alvina's chamber.With fear, Ruthie went to Gabriella's chamber, pondering what she was going to tell Gabriella, so she would understand her, and not punish her.Ruthie found herself standing before Gabriella with her body quivering and her head bowed.Gabriella gazed at Ruthie with skeptical brows, assuming that something was wrong, and Ruthie was there to report it.“What's it, Ruthie?” Gabriella curiously inquired with her arms crossed above her chest.Upon hearing Gabriella's voice, Ruthie quickly fell to her knees–head bowed with a sad expression.“Forgive me, Your Majesty,” Ruthie cried out as she let tears flow down her cheeks.“You haven't answered my question, Ruthie.” Gabriella smirked, “What's it? Talk to me.”Gabriella hastened towards Ruthie. She grabbed Ruthie's jaw and angrily lifted it, so she could see Ruthie's expression.Gabriella grimaced at her as they gazed at each other.At last, Ruthie sniffed and responded,“ A
“Yes, I know,” Gabriella chuckled,“ that's why I want you to keep it secret. Do you know why I told you the truth?”The doctor shook his head as he maintained his gaze on Gabriella. He was no longer scared to look her directly in the eye again.Gabriella sighed and then walked back to the king-size bed. She sat on it and crossed her legs with her gaze fixed on the doctor who was sitting in front of her.“Well,” Gabriella began,“ it's because I'm preparing for the future. I might give birth to my child and someone might suggest that we should do a DNA test, and I believe that that's where I will be caught. For this reason, I want you to get prepared in case such a thing comes up, you may be able to manipulate the DNA test and falsely claim that the child is Alpha Ryder's child. Can you please do this for me…?”“Forgive me, Your Majesty. I can't,” he quickly rejected it, attempting to stand up from his seat.“Hey, sit back!” her hoarse voice echoed in the chamber, causing the doctor to
A week later, Gabriella approached Winnie alone at night, without taking Ruthie with her.“Are you certain that that wasn't a plan from Ruthie? Because I don't trust that maid. How on earth did Asher throw the poisoned water away without knowing what was inside?” Winnie disagrees with what Gabriella told her about the failed mission.“That's precisely what I said, but she insisted that she didn't do that. So, I let it be that it wasn't her fault. However, the annoying thing was that she used the entire poisonous substance at once, leaving nothing with her.” Gabriella complained.“You see why I said she's suspicious, right? Why did she use the entire poisonous substance at a time? The powder could have been used more than four times, yet she used it at once, so she wouldn't be asked to poison the kids again.”“You know what, I have a new plan and I believe that this particular one will work out,” Gabriella announced to Winnie.“And… what could that be, if I may ask?” Winnie curiously in
After pondering about what Winnie said, Gabriella asked,“ Are you certain that Alvina won't find out? I'm also unsettled that the seer might find out if the Alpha king invites him over. Because I know that the pack doctor won't find out the cause of the sickness. How convinced are you that this will work out, Winnie?”“Your Majesty, please keep in mind who I am. I'm more powerful than anyone who has powers in this pack, including the seer. What I can't tell is that I'm finding it hard to discover who is protecting Alvina.” Winnie responded with assurance that she wouldn't be caught.“You say so…?” “I didn't only say so, Your Majesty. What I said earlier is nothing but the truth,” said Winnie while rolling her eyes.“Alright, I don't think what we're discussing is that important. Kindly proceed to what I'm here for.” Gabriella complained.“Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do just that.” Winnie nodded and then proceeded with her incantations.After reciting the incantations for a few min
“No, Alpha Ryder. It's not yet time for you to die, please…” Alvina cried out and quickly stood up and ordered Beta Hudson, “Get Jada as swiftly as you can. Tell him that the Alpha king is at the point of death. He should hurry to the palace, please.”“At your command, Your Majesty,” Beta Hudson responded as he bowed to her.Just as he was about to leave, he took one of the palace guards along with him.Unfortunately, Gabriella was yet to go and check out how the Alpha king was doing. She pretended as though she weren't aware of what was presently happening in the palace.She decided to stay back in her chamber, never caring to know whether the Alpha king would survive or not.However, she was certain that Alpha Ryder would not die, following what Winnie told her.The only thing Gabriella was curious to know was when the sickness would be transferred to Alvina so she could die instantly. That was all she cared about.Now, after a few minutes of eagerly waiting, Jada finally arrived at
In the middle of the day, Gabriella found herself in Winnie's house, trying to get clarification about the letter that was presented to her by one of the palace guards. “Winnie, what was that for? We are yet to finish with our previous plan, and you're bringing this to me?” Gabriella yelled at Winnie.“Forgive me, Your Majesty. Keep in mind that these powers of mine are not generated by me, rather, I get them from the dark invisible spirits. If you don't do that, your son will never be the Alpha king after his father. Please keep in mind that he has elder siblings, and the eldest will claim the throne after their father's death.“It is lawful that the eldest child in the royal family is to take over from his father after his death, making it impossible for your unborn child to lose the chance of becoming an alpha king. However, if you insist that your son must be crowned as the Alpha king after Alpha Ryder's death, then you must be ready to do what is demanded of you, Your Majesty.”
“Bro, I'm afraid that you might lose your life one day because of this. Why did you accept to do such a thing because of money? You shouldn't have done that.” Julian's friend, Everett, inquired, sympathizing with Julian for his support of Gabriella's younger brother to become the next alpha king of the Blood Stone pack.This was the hidden truth about Winnie's plan to eliminate Alpha Austin Radford which Winnie failed to reveal to Gabriella.On the day Gabriella's younger brother, Jake Radford received Julian's contact from Gabriella, he called him and revealed to him his plan to claim his father's throne.Jake knew that he wouldn't be able to do that alone, that's why he sought Julian's help. Of course, someone had told him a few things about Julian, and he knew what he was capable of doing.Since the day Jake found out that Julian was mingling with his elder sister, Gabriella, he worked hard and found out everything about Julian.When the thought of becoming alpha king at an early a
