Ava’s POV
The hall fell into chaos as the people murmured among themselves, shooting me a death glare. I swallowed hard, my heart hammering loudly in my chest.
My secret was finally out.
The people started insulting me, throwing objects at me, I used my hands to block my face from the object.
“She’s impure!”
“She tricked us all!”
“She isn’t fit to be our Luna!”
Those words kept ringing in my head.
I stood there, frozen. My entire body trembling, I have kept this secret from the world for years, I succeeded in doing that, why is it different now? Why does this have to happen now? Why do all my plans fail?
My breath was heavy caused by stinging pain from my wounds but the blood didn't seem to ease the tension, they all stood, glaring at me.
I knew if they weren't royalties with etiquette, they would have devoured me by now.
Charles and Amelia moved immediately, standing in front of me like shields against the rising tide of hatred.
“Enough!” Charles’ voice boomed through the hall.
