Chapter 51 Mess

ASHER I’d just laid my head down on the desk in my study when I heard a series of knocks on my door. For a moment, I considered ignoring them entirely, but a voice in the back of my mind told me that I had a duty to fulfill. I was just so tired these days. But the Alpha King couldn’t take a break. “Enter,” I groaned, and I pulled myself back up. As the door began to open, I ran a hand through my hair and took a long, deep breath. Luckily, it was just Lancel. My most trusted guard entered the room quietly and as he approached my desk, his full eyebrows creased together in concern. “Alpha?” he asked, his tone drenched in worry. “Alpha, are you alright?” “Yes,” I answered quickly, though I didn’t exactly mean it. “Why ever do you ask?” “Your skin is quite pale, Alpha,” Lancel replied worriedly. “You’ve got dark circles under your eyes and you look quite tired.” “You sure know how to flatter me, Lancel,” I murmured, and I stifled a yawn. “You haven’t seemed quite yourself lately

Chapter 52 Rude Northerner

ASHER “You’re very late, Alpha Asher. Is it customary of your Pack to keep your guests waiting?” The moment I stepped into the first-floor meeting room, a heavily accented voice reached my ears, and I raised my eyebrows in surprise. Though I knew the voice belonged to the King of Yurene, I was shocked by how callously I was being spoken to. The king stood from the couch very slowly and then extended his hand toward mine. “I jest, of course, though you do appear to be quite busy.” I stared at his hand for a moment before I accepted it in mine. “I suppose I am quite busy. I’m sorry to keep you waiting-” “Are you ill?” Kaleb blurted out. “You look tired-” Lancel took a step forward in warning, but I raised a hand to stop him. “It’s fine,” I murmured. Kaleb studied us with a curious expression and then chuckled. “It seems the people of the South are more tense than us Northerners.” The king of Yurene was one of the tallest men I’d ever seen. I wasn’t short by any means, but compa

Chapter 53 Ewonmiams

CASSANDRA The king of Yurene had saved my life. I couldn’t help but let the phrase repeat through my head as I sat at the small dining table in our chambers. Today had been tough on my nerves, and it was taking all of my efforts to keep from exploding from confusion. An attempted kidnapping… only to be saved by a foreigner from a land I’d never even heard of until today. Finnick was fast asleep in his bed. After he’d washed up, he’d decided he was too tired to play and crawled right under the covers without me saying a word. I’d dutifully tucked him in and minutes later, he was out. I was a little relieved. My son had been so brave today. I couldn’t blame him for feeling worn out. Erika had served me some fragrant jasmine tea in an attempt to soothe my nerves. The warm drink was doing a little, but I needed so much more. As much as I didn’t want to admit it, I was scared. The man in the shop had said he knew who I was. What had he meant by that? Did he know I was truly Cora? Or

Chapter 54 Banquet

CASSANDRA I’d been apprehensive at the idea of attending the banquet that evening, but the king of Yurene had been insistent upon me joining them. I’d provided excuse after excuse, but they did me no good. The man was simply not taking no for an answer. So, I thanked him for the invitation and immediately headed back to my room to figure out what I would wear to such an occasion. Back in Wild Crawler, I’d never attended banquets or fine events. Our lifestyle there was much more rugged and simple, so I didn’t have much in the way of fancy clothing. Erika seemed surprised when I returned to my chambers and explained the situation to her. “That’s wonderful that you were invited, Cassandra,” she said, and then her eyebrows creased together. “Hmm. I wonder what you will wear…” “That’s my problem,” I replied, and a lump formed in my throat. “I don’t own anything acceptable enough to attend a banquet.” Suddenly, the maid’s eyes glimmered and she flashed me an excited smile. “Hold on,

Chapter 55 Dance

CASSANDRA Oliver Moses smiled warmly as he asked the question, and for a moment, I thought he appeared kind. But I knew the truth. The Beta knew nothing of kindness. It was all an act, a game of pretend, and he was quite good at it. But I was better. “Yes, sir,” I replied politely, and I returned his smile. Adalyn’s father shared the same amber eyes as his daughter, and they stared into mine with curiosity. “My wife and I once visited Wild Crawler,” he mused. “It was a nice small village, but it had the most gorgeous scenery. Don’t you remember, honey?” He turned to Linda and the pair exchanged a sweet smile. Though their family was conniving, it was clear that the love between them was very real. For a moment, I nearly forgot who they really were. “Ew, Father,” Adalyn sighed in irritation. “Please, contain yourself. You’re being embarrassing.” She then turned to Kaleb and offered him a sickly sweet smile. “So sorry for them, Your Majesty.” “There’s no need to apologize,” the

Chapter 56 He needs alcohol

ASHER “What’s the matter, Asher?” Adalyn demanded as she followed me into my study. “What exactly has gotten into you tonight?” I fought back a groan as I approached one of the leather couches in the corner. Alcohol had plagued me just a little and my head swam with a mixture of drunkenness and agitation. “Nothing is wrong,” I sighed as a heavy exhale escaped me “Go back to the banquet, Adalyn. I just need some time alone-” “Time alone?” Adalyn repeated back in confusion and she shook her head. “Time alone for what, Asher? We have guests downstairs to entertain, in case you’ve forgotten. We’re supposed to be welcoming the king of Yurene and his diplomats. I don’t think this is making too great of an impression of Wegalla.” “Don’t tell me what I’m doing wrong,” I managed to say as my head pounded angrily. “I’m fully aware of what’s going on down there. I don’t think our guests care if I step away for a moment-” “I bet Cassandra Keller cares,” my wife blurted out, and I whipped ar

Chapter 57 North King's offer

CASSANDRA My heart beat like a hummingbird’s wings as I stared at Kaleb. I’d messed up and given myself away, I just knew it. Much to my surprise, Kaleb didn’t seem to put two and two together and simply continued dancing. “No wonder you don’t seem like you belong here,” Kaleb remarked with a raised eyebrow. “You look quite uncomfortable here with these… arrogant, upper-class snobs of Anemond.” I couldn’t contain myself and a laugh escaped me. Kaleb frowned. “Did I say something funny?” “No, no,” I assured him. “No, I’m sorry.” Truth be told, I didn’t feel uncomfortable in this setting. I used to enjoy the finer things like fancy balls and banquets. I also used to love dancing and having all of the eyes of the room on me as I lost myself in the music. But I wasn’t Cora anymore and Anemond wasn’t my home. It was a terrifying place where I needed to stay guarded and not let my disguise slip. The next move in the dance was a spin and Kaleb handled it beautifully. He had a natura

Chapter 58 He's drunk

CASSANDRA I was half-asleep when I heard a loud knock on the door. Startled, I sat straight up in bed and caught my breath. My eyes flew to the clock. It was nearly three in the morning. Who was at my door this late? “Who’s there?” I called out just loud enough to not wake Finnick. Luckily, my boy was fast asleep and snoring lightly. When I didn’t get an answer, I pulled myself out of bed and headed toward the door. I was nearly halfway there when I heard another series of knocks. They were more forceful than the first and I felt a mixture of fear and irritation. I opened the door and when I did, my lips parted in surprise. It was Asher. I was about to ask what he was doing here at this hour, but before the words could escape me, the Alpha King rushed into the room, closed the door, and then cornered me against the wall. His steel gray eyes bore into mine with intensity and his breath was hot against my face. He smelled heavily like liquor. “Are you drunk?” I asked as my bod

Chapter 59 Viper appears again

CASSANDRA I stared at Asher in surprise. Adalyn? The Alpha King wasted absolutely no time. Without another word, he turned on his heels and rushed out of the room. “Go to sleep, baby,” I called out to Finnick. “I’ll be back in a while.” “Okay,” Finnick replied, but his sleepy tone dripped with confusion. “Mommy, what’s going on?” “I don’t know, honey, but I have to go check,” I said as my hands began to shake at my sides. “I love you.” As Finnick mumbled back a tired response, I followed Asher out the door. The Alpha King had managed to cover quite a bit of distance during my exchange with my son, but I was able to catch up to him on the staircase. “It sounded like it came from the garden,” Asher blurted when I arrived. “I don’t know what she would be doing there at this hour…” His gray eyes flashed with urgency and though his gait was a little staggered from the alcohol, he remained steadier than expected. Meanwhile, I was thoroughly panicked and just as confused as he was.

Chapter 60 Mysterious box

CASSANDRA“I got the test result, Cassy!” Becky exclaimed with excitement as she rushed into the lab the next day. I’d been half-asleep at my desk and close to nodding off when my assistant walked in, and I quickly regained my composure so she wouldn’t notice just how exhausted I was.Between the encounter with Asher and the situation with the snake in the garden, I’d gotten very little sleep and was feeling a little ghostlike.“Oh?” I managed to say, and I swept my long hair out of my face and pulled it up into a high bun. “What does it say?”Becky glanced down at the stack of papers in her hand and quickly, her excitement turned to concern.“Becky?” I prompted her again when she didn’t say anything. “What does it say?”“It says it wasn’t Udosyn,” she said quietly, and her lips curled into a frown. “And it wasn’t the same venom that we’d extracted from the vipers that had bitten Prince Marco and the Alpha King.”This time, it was my turn to frown. No matter what happened around her
