IVY

The dinner date specially prepared by my mother was in a few minutes time and I had already promised her that I would show up.

I tried to dress cute, styling my hair in the most perfect way and applying a little bit of makeup even though it was not my thing.

I wanted to impress my mum and maybe….Elvis. I don't want my mum to feel like she was doing a bad job trying to make me adjust to the life I was supposed to live.

Staring at the mirror one last time, I shook my head in disappointment..

“I have changed…. It might not be an obvious change but I can feel it,” I said to myself and moved straight to meet Elvis.

"You look like you are hiding something,” Elvis said and I was a little taken aback by the first thing he said the moment I stepped into the dining room.

I didn't expect him to welcome me that way. With a weird question? No way.

There was No warm greeting, no casual small talk.

Just that and it was straight to the point.

But on second thought, maybe he was right. I was

  • The Alpha and the traitor's daughter    Chapter 188

    IVY"So, this is what guilt feels like. This is all my fault.”The moment I shut my door behind me, those words echoed in my head, burning deeper than I expected.I knew that I had messed up but it wasn't really my fault. I had to do it because I would be the one to carry my Cross at the end.Irrespective of that, I knew that I didn't really do well. I was not meant to do that no matter what. I deserved to wear the medal of the world's most terrible daughter because I did something that was not acceptable.I leaned against it, letting the weight of what I just did sink in. I lied to my father.Not just any lie. It was a deep, intentional and face-to-face lie. One I crafted carefully because I couldn't bring myself to tell him the truth simply because I was scared.I was scared of so many things. I was scared of how he will see it, I was scared of how he will feel. Another thing was that I felt small. My wolf was small and I had been reminded of that. It made me not know who I was anym

    IVYThings got worse….or so I thought.I received an order from my father. He summoned me to the courtroom and I couldn't help but think about why he would do that.If he wanted to talk to me, why couldn't he come to my room like before? And talk? This was rather strange.I prepared myself and as usual, I didn't put too much into my appearance. But I made sure that I wasn't looking bad in the dress I was putting on."Come in, Ivy,” my father said after I knocked quietly on the door.Those words echoed louder than they should.My father’s voice never scared me, but today, something in it shook me deep in my bones.I had to calm myself down as I constantly did the breathing exercise for my nerves.Maybe it wasn’t the voice. Maybe it was the place.The courtroom!The chairs were so arranged and the council chiefs were also present.My mother was also sitting still with her hands folded in her lap like a queen trying not to show her rage.It then clicked!I think I knew why they called me

  • The Alpha and the traitor's daughter    Chapter 186

    IreneI should have allowed my daughter to enjoy her dinner with her betrothed without being so nosy about it.My mind was not at rest because I kept thinking of what possibly could go wrong between the both of them.Yes, you are right. I don't possibly trust my daughter that much even though she had assured me countless times that she was going to make sure this worked out.But, still. I never believed her and my instincts were right."She told him she's not going to marry him? Even though he's her mate?" I asked in a whisper.My hands were still gripping the corner of the pillar I was hiding behind and the words felt too loud to my ears even though they barely left my lips.My heart thudded loudly in my chest, almost drowning out the gentle chatter and clinking of cutlery from the dinner room ahead.I had come to keep an eye on Ivy, not to spy. But the moment I saw the two of them alone, speaking so quietly, I paused.Something about the way her eyes avoided his gaze told me there w

    IVYI spent a lot of time looking for my uncle, but I still couldn't find him last night. I had to stop the search in disappointment, muttering some funny words to myself.I really wanted to talk to him about everything going on but now, it felt like the world had crashed on my shoulders.“I will just look for him later in the day. He's still in this pack, maybe he has just been busy,” I consoled myself and took in a deep breath.****"You know he’s not that bad, right?" My mum asked and I looked up from my toast, surprised by her words.I was not expecting her to ask that question now. My mum never ceased to amaze me with her funny questions and this was one of those times.“Huh?” I asked, lifting up a brow.“Why are you looking at me like I'm telling a lie?” She asked and I squeezed my face even harder.My mother’s voice was soft, but it was still loud enough that it sliced through the quiet kitchen like a blade.The sun was barely up, spilling light across the counter, yet she was

    IVY"Where is mum and dad?" I asked no one in particular. Those words raced through my mind as I stomped out of the room after Elvis took his leave.I would have expected to be met with a shock but I don't know what happened.And for my parents? I could have asked my sisters or the servants but I needed to find them myselves.I had some questions to ask them before they flew out of my head.I was so tensed that the tension in my chest was pinching and twisting so tightly, I thought my lungs might stop.Something about yesterday changed everything.I walked briskly but not too loudly. I didn’t bow my head while I walked and I also didn’t run into anyone.My dress rustled quietly and I was reminded that I was still stuck in that dress that I hated.My hair fell down my shoulders and it got tangled quickly but I didn’t care. I just kept walking.To my greatest surprise, I realised that Elvis never left! This had to be something my parents did.They kept Elvis here and he was to live in
