All Chapters of Rejected and Abandoned: The Luna’s Reawakening : Chapter 41 - Chapter 46

ROSHIDAIf I wasn’t dead before, I sure as hell would be dead now. I had just talked back to the King and not just that, I’d told him that he was wrong.The King was silent after that and I stared at him square in the eye because despite the fact that I knew that I had done the right thing, it still didn’t stop the fact that I had gone against the King’s laws and I had changed it. Also, he didn’t look very happy about it.It was one of the elders who spoke up instead of the King.“How dare you speak to the King that way? Perhaps you do not know how things are done here as you are a woman. You must never speak to the King in that manner.”What did that have to do with anything?“Perhaps it is you who do not know that the King put me in this position. Am I no longer allowed to plead my case or will I be executed before I am proven guilty?”He opened his mouth to speak but the King raised his hand and stopped him.

He was going to make things hard for me now that I was going to be in the legislative council. “Oh, did I add that the King wants me to be a part of the legislative council? I guess something good comes out of trouble.” My mind cast back to the palace and I saw Valfred’s face when I was speaking about Felix. I didn’t get to thank him but I was really grateful for what he did for me. The way he stood up for me like we had spoken about it before, not minding if his father would get mad at him for taking sides. “What did you just say?” I looked at Sophia as I popped a grape in my mouth.“What are you talking about?”
