Camellia who had been happy when the Lyncan king's father called Alexa's pups bastards, was shocked as she stared at him. 'You cannot be serious!' she said before she could control her words. Getting a hard stare from the Lyncan king, she said, 'I'm sorry for being so forward, Lyncan king but your father is right. How can you claim those bastards as yours?' Slap! She felt it's stinging pain on her cheek before she could finish her statement and staggered back, her hand on her burning cheek. 'What did I say wrong?' she asked, tears in her eyes. 'What are you doing here, by the way?' the Lyncan king asked. 'Who said you could come and how dare you call my pups, bastards?' he howled. 'I am just looking out for you', she said', 'you may not know the kind of person Alexa is. She's been with a lot of men and those two children are the pups she had with another man! Do you really want to claim another man's pups?' she wailed. 'You are looking out for me?' the Lyncan king scoffed. '
'Vicious bitch!' someone shouted. And Camellia could not agree more. She bit back a smile. Alexa, she thought, you haven't seen anything yet. You think that recovering your memory is going to save you but you underestimate me!'The Lyncan king gave me a ring and told me he was going to make it up to me. I have waited all these years for him to do just that and just when it seemed that he might, this happens and now, I am being asked to go away and not celebrate with my son!'; she wailed unconsolably.Alexa had had enough. She had planned on sparing Camellia as embarrassment and humiliation but she was determined on ruining her own reputation.'Are you saying that I am lying?' the Lyncan king asked.'I do not dare!' Camellia said. 'But she is! She must have fed you with these lies!' she said. 'She never liked nor forgaveme for being the biological daughter. She never appreciated me or my mother for taking her in!''You are a real drama queen, Camellia!' Alexa said. 'What do you hope to
Triplets! Triplets! Triplets! This was the word that kept ringing in Camellia's ears. She should have known. She should have investigated further and prepared herself for this showdown which had been meant for Alexa but which seem to have backfired.No! I can't let her win. I shall not be the only one embarrassed here today. She opened her mouth to speak as her eyes roamed the crowd, looking for Charlotte to help her out. She had told her she had got hold of a destructive video involving Alexa which would destroy her relationship with the Lyncan king for sure.'I have a video of your favourite plaything which will blow your mind!' she said, hoping the video was as destructive as Charlotte had led her to believe. She had pleaded to see the video to make sure but Charlotte had told her it was meant as a surprise and that she would be impressed at the party when it is played. Charlotte, this had better be good. I am counting on you! she thought in desperation.'You mean you have a video
A hush fell on all the people gathered. All eyes went from the disgraced woman being dragged away to the one holding her children protectively. Even the guards forgot they were dragging Camellia out and looked at Alexa, although still holding tightly to the struggling Camellia. And Amelia smiled, 'Way to go! Camellia', she thought, 'Perfect timing!''What nonsense are you spurting again now?' the Lyncan king said in a deceitfully cool tone.'You don't believe me, huh?' she asked. 'Ha,ha,ha,ha!' she laughed hysterically. 'Ask her! I just found out recently, myself. I thought she was just a hybrid but I heard her speaking to her vampire lover, Wayne!'Hector was dumbfounded.He looked at Alexa, this couldn't be, could it? he thought.'Alexa, is this true?' he asked.'Is what true, Hector?' she asked in a very cool voice. 'That I have a vampire lover or what? You already know Wayne and you know he is just a friend. Didn't you see him bring me back to the house the other day?' she asked, u
'I asked you if there was anything else I should know about and you told me you had nothing else to hide and that I already knew all there was to know about you!' the Lyncan king raved, pacing the room he had pushed her into.'What difference would it have made if I had told you earlier?' she asked. 'You know the history of the species. I was only trying to save my children from the wrath of the pure blood!' she said in indignation.Hector looked at her in exasperation and shook his head. 'Are you blaming me for your mistake now?' he asked.'No!' she snapped. 'I am just stating a fact. These are your children whom you didn't know existed. You just found out about them and you are ready to allow them get killed because they happen to be born 'not a pure breed'?' she asked, her eyes flashing. 'If you are going to stay there and allow your pups to be killed, then you are even weaker than I thought!' she said, her chest heaving. 'I for one will not be alive and allow any harm come to my p
'What did you say?' the Lyncan king asked, ad ancinh towards Alexa threateningly.Standing her ground, she repeated, 'I said, this is a terrible mistake, because someone who cannot move the heavens and the earth to save his own children is not fit for them to call him father!' she said, her tone which had started deceitfully low, riding with each word.'Wayne is fitter, in your estimation, isn't he?' Hector asked. 'Or the other one - the wizard, what's his name again, Ah ha, Myles! Either of them are more qualified than I am, idnt that so?' he asked, eyes blazing in fury. 'Maybe you can't seem to be able to choose between them. You want the both of them, don't you? I wonder why you didn't back out of the contract or refuse to accept it in the first place. That would have given you the freedom to mate with both of them!' he howled, visibly furious. 'You are free to go to thdm but you are not going with those pups!''I am surprised', Alexa said, equally furious. 'Arent you going to get
'You have come to keep me company down here, I see', Erica said.Camellia ignored her. Her mind still blank. How was it that all she had done to ruin Alexa had ended up backfiring and she was the one bearing the brunt of it all, rather that enjoying the divided of the labour she had invested in all this plotting. But she wasn't going to give up. Alexa wasn't going to win!'You were acting so high and mighty as the mother of the heir but now you are in the dungeon with me and I wonder what you did!' Erica continued taunting her.'You always acted haughty. I thought by now you will have got married to the Lyncan king', Camellia said. 'Are you not the Alpha's daughter, why hasn't your father secured your release yet? Have you forgotten how you didn't want me to see Lionel?''I wish he had died of that wolfsbane!' Erica said with so much venom that Camellia who had been trying to think of a way out of her situation and looked up at the bitter Erica. You are not as bitter against them as
The elder Lyncan, Hector's father could not believe what he had just heard. 'The illegitimate daughter of a Beta was actually a tribrid? The powers she must possess. No wonder my son cannot control himself around her. The power in her is strongly pulling him to her and he can't resist her nor control himself where she is concerned.If I can get my hands on such powers...He heard them arguing but kept quiet, patiently waiting for his son to come out of the room. After a while, Hector came out and walked blindly past him into his study. His father shook his head. This son of mine can be a fool sometimes, he thought and followed him into the study.The Lyncan king was pacing on his study, his heart hurting. 'Why did you have to be a tribrid?' he thought in anguish. It was moments such as this that made him realize what a difficult it was to rule. One had to make decisions they were not comfortable with.'I can just leave all this and elope with Alexa and my pups but that would label me
