Chapter 23

Amelia's pov

Just as Luther left I fell to the ground and sobbed,I walked straight to my bed and hugged my pillow so tightly.

I heard a knock on the door"come in!" I managed to say amidst the sniffs and tears.

"Is my favorite Luna ready for me?" The masculine voice said to me I turned and it was alpha Damian.

His smile immediately turned to a frown when he saw my face covered in tears.

I tried to clean them up as fast as I could.

"What happened!" He said drawing me close to his hefty shoulders.

"Nothing I just hit my foot on the stool" I said and let out a forced smile.

He carried me up and led me out of my room"there are no stools in my room princess,you won't have to worry about hitting your leg" he said and let out a mischievous grin.

I smiled back at him as we entered his room.

He laid me on the bed and planted a kiss on my forehead and way to my lips and kissed me in such a sensational manner as he dragged my bottom lip slightly.

He ran his fingers down my gown and teased my neck with his other hand.

I found it so comforting just then he hesitated and stopped and walked straight to the window staring at it.

"Why did you stop?", I said staring at him

"Nothing princess your feet is hurt remember you need rest".

I need to shower I said and made way for the washroom,I stared at the mirror lost in thoughts.

"Why does Luther do this to me?"

"His touches"

"His scent"

I do not like how it makes me feel.

I was still lost in thoughts when I heard a lady's scream I immediately ran out of the washroom and lying in front of me was Lucy,I couldn't say a word as I saw alpha Damien's eye.He was furious at her for some reasons,on seeing me she stood up and gave me the death glare.

I immediately walked towards Alpha Damien I was about to touch him when he turned his fiery gaze to me and I felt my body wax cold.

He locked the door to the room and turned to me.

"Go to bed!"

I dare not fuss about anything at that moment I immediately scampered away straight to bed and slide under the bedsheets.I took the pillow close to me and before I knew it I was fast asleep.

The sun peeked through the curtains, signaling the start of a new day.

I jumped up when I realized I slept in alpha Damien's room.I looked around but he was nowhere to be found.

I made my way back to my room lost in thought of what Luther said to me just then someone touched me from behind my reflexes were super fast to attack but then I was brought aback my the resounding voice,it was lady Rosa.

"Whoa whoa someone is hasty",she said and let out a smile.

"I'm sorry I didn't see you there" I said.

"We have an event coming up and we need to plan ahead,we need colors,a theme and jewelry,meet me and the other brides at the courtyard by noon"lady Rosa said and before I could say anything she left.

I walked back to my room and closed the door behind me.

"First it was Luther,now Lucy?" My mind went back to how she interrupted my discussion with alpha Damien last night.

I need to get my mind off things maybe this event will help.

I quickly freshened up.

The courtyard

I walked into the courtyard and noticed one chair was empty which means I'm late.

"Oh no" I thought and hurriedly made my way to the circle of brides sitted and took my seat right close to Susan.

"And obviously she is late!" Lucy said and rolled her eye and was staring at my direction

"I apologize for keeping you all waiting" I said.

"Now let's get to business there are two colors here with me for this event" she said raising two fine piece of clothing.

"Black and blue" so we need to choose just one.

"Blue anyone?" Lady Rosa said raising the outfits above her head.

Lucy and Susan raised their hands in unison.

"Black?" I and three other brides raised our hands.

"Okay then so we're going with black ….just as lady Rosa was about to finish her statement Lucy cut in "I can't wear black I will wear blue" she snapped.

"Don't be a hammer head Lucy,don't make things difficult for me than it already is" lady Rosa said in a soft voice.

"I like blue and I want blue!" Lucy snapped.

Just then I knew I had to do something I stood up facing Lucy "hey Lucy let's all go with black what's the point of standing out of the theme?" I asked.

"Theme or not I always stand out I do not need a theme to show you all are nothing like me!" Lucy snapped at me.

"Whoa whoa.. be calm this is not some sort of competition,this is an event and we would all be going for black" I said and took my sit.

"Who do you think you are Amelia!

Few weeks back we were the happiest family now all we do is fight!"

"Why do you break every home you walk into?",lucy said staring at me.

Those words of hers were like swords and it pierced deep.

I stood there with no words as a tear found its way down my cheek.

"Can we all sit down on our sits please" lady Rosa stood up trying to calm the already burning feud that was already giving out it's smokes.

I stood there staring at Lucy trying to rap my hands and head around why she despises me so much.

Just then another voice cut through "Amelia sit your ass down already!" I turned only to see Susan.
