Chapter 89. Daciana's heart sank as she glanced at the triplets.They nodded their heads at her, giving her reassuring looks. As for Hailey, she gave her a thumbs up with a wry smile on her face, but that did nothing but increase Daciana's unease. Why was she even worried about the interrogations? All they'll do is ask her a few questions. It's not like they'll end up suspecting her for the Alpha king's murder when she didn't do it... Right?"Goddess, have mercy," Daciana muttered to herself as she stepped forward resolutely.She followed the guard to the interrogation room. She couldn't help but think about Hailey's last words and the implications they held. Was Hailey trying to imply that one of them was involved in the Alpha king's death?As she entered the interrogation room, which was a small room with a desk and a chair for her to sit on, Daciana saw two figures sitting across from her. One was a man in his early fifties with a stern expression, and the other was a woman in
Chapter 90."Pardon?" Daciana asked, arching an eyebrow.What did Wolfsbane have to do with her last question?The Gamma and Delta glanced at themselves, with the latter shaking her head before she jotted something down on her notepad.Daciana could swear to the gods that the dynamic between the two of them was pissing her off. What did she say now that the Delta found interesting enough to write?"Miss. Gavin, I was asking you about wolfsbane." The Gamma cleared his throat and said, folding his arms in front of his chest. "Even as a wolfless Omega, surely you must know a thing or two about it."Daciana clenched her jaw, balling her hands into fists.She has had enough."I don't think I appreciate your backhanded comments, sir," Daciana said calmly, not mincing her words.The Gamma scoffed, shaking his head before he leaned in closer, placing his arms in front of himself while staring at Daciana dead in her eyes. "And I don't think I appreciate your lack of cooperation." He blurted s
Chapter 91."What?!" Axel, Alan, and Hailey exclaimed after they heard the Gamma's rather harsh declaration.Meanwhile, Daciana stood silently, her breathing increasing as she tried to control it to no avail. This couldn't be happening. It just couldn't.Kellen killed the Alpha King?"There must be a misunderstanding here," Hailey muttered, stepping forward after glancing back at Kellen. "I can assure you, Gamma Thane, Kellen loved his father and didn't have a motive to kill him. Why would he go to any lengths to–""Oh, he had a motive all right." The Gamma interrupted before turning his gaze to Kellen. "Young man, this maid reports that you're the one she saw going into your father's chambers to serve him tea. Is that true?"Everyone turned their gazes to Kellen who just stood there silently, his fists clenched beside him.He seemed to be struggling to say something but hesitated. Finally, after he glanced at Daciana and noticed the expression on her face, he sighed heavily."Yes, I
Chapter 92. "Get away from her!"All eyes moved in the direction of the voice that seemed to boom around the palace.Daciana's eyes softened when she saw who it was. "Kellen." She whispered.Kellen walked out of the shadows in a corner, his facial expression plain. However, his piercing blue eyes were locked coldly on Beta Dax who tilted his head."Oh, good. You haven't escaped the palace yet." Beta Dax muttered, a mocking smile curling up his lips. "Why were you running away if you didn't kill the Alpha King, Kellen? It does nothing to help your cause or to prove your innocence. If you ask me, it actually–""Can you cut the crap and just let her go?" Kellen asked, sounding completely uninterested as he brought his wrists forward, gesturing for someone to handcuff him. Beta Dax dimmed his eyes at him first before he let go of Daciana who quickly stepped away from him, her eyes scrutinizing him with suspicion."Are you okay?" Alan asked just then, placing his right hand on her shoulde
Chapter 93.Sabrina led Daciana to her room where she sat on top of her bed.Her mother, Sabrina, sat beside her, placing both her hands on her shoulders and comforting her while Daciana sniffled."I need to go and see Kellen in the dungeons," Daciana remarked, nodding her head as she did. But before she could stand up or do anything rash, her mother held her arm, stopping her instantly."What you need to do, Daciana, is sleep. Rest." Sabrina said calmly even though she had a stern look in her eyes. Daciana was taken by surprise by her mother's sudden sternness until the poor woman sighed heavily and placed both her hands on her forehead."This is all my fault." Sabrina lamented, shaking her head with despondency behind her voice. "If... If I had just forced you to reject the triplets when you found out they were your mates, maybe you wouldn't have to go through... To go through all–""Mother?" Daciana arched an eyebrow, shaking her head before she sat down on her bed again, giving
Chapter 94. "I should get Daciana to reject me and then what?" Kellen's voice echoed with contempt. "I'll end up with you? I'd rather rot in this cell, Hailey."Daciana got closer to the cell at the end of the hallway, her hands balling into fists as she caught sight of Hailey.The two-faced bitch leaned against a wall, her arms folded in front of her chest and her hair falling freely behind her. The Beta's daughter seemed to be pressed as she spoke with desperation in her voice. "Don't say that, Kellen! You can't actually mean that... Right?" Daciana squinted her eyes and soon saw Kellen standing at the other end of the prison cell. He looked like a ghost of his former self already, with sunken eyes that Daciana could see despite the distance.Daciana felt her heart sink but that sinking feeling soon morphed into warmth when she heard Kellen's next words."How many times do I have to tell you that you and I can never be an item, Hailey?" Kellen asked, tilting his head with his han
Chapter 95.After walking out of the dungeons, Daciana made her way downstairs. She brought out her phone and checked the time. It was almost eight PM... They should be having dinner by now. When she got downstairs, she wasn't surprised to meet Beta Dax eating at the dining table with Hailey sitting to his right.Daciana's mother, Sabrina, sat on the right side of the table, while Axel and Alan sat together on the left side of the rectangular table. "Good evening," Daciana said with a calm tone, causing everyone to raise their heads and glance at her. Hailey had a slight smirk on her face as she responded. "Good evening, Daci. Were you up to anything this evening?" Daciana ignored her at first, sitting at the other free end of the table close to Alan and Axel.Alan, who sat closest to her, stared at her curiously, his grey eyes dimming."Are you okay?" He asked.Hmph... Okay? The way people close to her threw that word so freely around irked Daciana to no end.She knew they meant
001.Splash!Daciana sucked in a breath, the cold soda splashing directly in her eyes temporarily blinding her vision. With trembling hands she wiped at her eyes that burned, but the humiliation burned hotter.The crowd snickered and laughed at her, everyone enjoying how she was tortured.“Stupid Omega!” One girl spat disgustedly throwing the soda can on Daciana's face.“You shouldn't even be in college, you deserve to be banished, worthless freaks like you have no place here” Beyoncé, the queen bee of the group sneered.She was the most popular bitch in school; popular for bullying of course, and Daciana, who couldn’t fight back was her favorite victim.“Please I don’t want any trouble” Daciana forced out trying to sound strong, but her voice betrayed her like the weakling they all knew her to be.The small crowd that formed began cackling and guffawing like she had made a joke she had no knowledge of.She was like a deer in the middle of hungry wolves who were staring down at their

Chapter 88. "Hailey did what?" Kellen asked with shock when Daciana came out of her room and met with him as they walked toward the room downstairs that was meant for the interrogations.Daciana nodded her head, still remembering all the details from her earlier encounter with Hailey. Even after the Beta's daughter left and she had her bath and freshened up, Daciana still felt weird. "Yeah, I was way more shocked than you are." Daciana sighed, brushing her right hand through her hair as they descended the stairs. "But I'm telling you, she came to my room to apologize and then hugged me after telling me that she wanted to make it up to me."Daciana glanced at Kellen who seemed speechless but at the same time seemed like he was deep in thought.However, at the end of the stairs on the ground floor, Alan stood there alongside Axel, both of them having curious expressions on their faces."Who apologized?" Axel asked Kellen and Daciana when they finally got downstairs and regrouped with
Chapter 87. Daciana was lost on what to do as she stared at Hailey, standing just outside her room silently with a smile on her bitchy face. The smile wasn't even sly or mischievous but just seemed... Genuine.But that couldn't be."What the heck do you want, Hailey?" Daciana asked, folding her arms in front of her chest. "I actually wanted to start this morning on a good note."Hailey blinked at her for a few seconds before she shook her head and chuckled, causing Daciana's frown to deepen. This girl was getting on her nerves..."Not even a 'good morning' greeting from you? Have things really become so bad between us?" Hailey asked, tilting her head curiously.What? She has to be joking... Right?"Things have been terrible between us since I arrived at this palace, Hailey. That's not even new." Daciana muttered with spite, eyeing Hailey before she shook her head. "Listen, if you don't have anything important to say then I–""Can I come in?" Hailey suddenly asked, causing Daciana's
