Weak and Useless

"Do you smell that? I smell his scent. Quickly. Hurry up. There!" Rylee nudged Xylah in Errol's direction hurriedly.

Despite all the playful interactions with Rylee, a faint smile was playing on Xylah's thin face, making her beauty more otherworldly.

Xylah was calm until Errol's beautiful musky scent invaded her nose. She broke into a wide grin when she saw Errol, and her heart started pounding in excitement

Errol was standing beside her father and stepmother, and he had that sexy, cold expression. He was in a black suit, and his hair was slicked back, which made his handsome face appear more prominent.

Xylah smiled shyly at him, she was dressed beautifully like this for him, so she wondered if he'd like it. Xylah's lips parted, and she was about to say 'Hi' when...

Eulla suddenly appeared in front of them while holding her camera. She was live.

"Hi, guys!" Eullah waved, and a lot of comments and gifts bombarded her screen. "Thank you all for inquiring about my health. I'm fine now. But…" she exhaled with the happiest smile. "Did you know what just happened? My little sister met her mate last night. Don't you think that's amazing?" Eulla says with excitement.

"Can you see how beautiful she is… Let me show you." Eulla said and immediately switched the selfie to the back camera, which gave everyone the opportunity to watch all that was happening.

Eulla's comment section was bombarded with messages soon after she switched the camera:

No way! Is it just me who thinks Xylah is beautiful today?

Moon Goddess. This is a beautiful omega.

Wait. Young Master Errol appeared there, and Xylah seemed to be going over in his direction… Are we thinking the same thing???

Xylah's mood immediately changed to a low one the minute Eulla switched to her live. She felt sick, and she wondered if those people had begun to condemn her again, but she forced a smile and walked to Errol.

But before Xylah could say anything, she heard Errol say, "I, Errol of GoldenPact Country, rejected you, Xylah, as my mate!" Errol declared immediately that she had arrived in his presence.

Xylah's face paled, and her wide grin froze; her heart skipped a beat, and a wave of overwhelming sadness took over her.

That's not possible! Xylah's eyes were clouded with tears; she never thought Errol would reject her! After all, he had told her that they'd be having the mating ceremony today—last night. He had… "No." Her lips parted, and she shook her head slowly with a pained expression as if to deny it.

Errol took a step toward her, and his tall frame bent slightly to her level. With a disgusted sneer, he said. "Do you think we're compatible? Look at you. You're just a weak and ugly useless omega and you're not worthy of being my partner. I'd rather be with a strong alpha or beta." He taunted her.

"Ahhh!" A searing pain gripped Xylah's heart, and she let out a loud, painful roar due to the rejection pain; she immediately ran back to her room.

"Oops! I never expected that." Eulla covered her mouth, and she froze in shock for a few seconds. She snapped out of it, but her eyes were still wide due to shock and surprise. "That... I got to leave, guys. Bye." She said and hurriedly turned offline.

Caspian silently looked at the beautiful and deserted garden through the window, the room was empty until he heard, "Your highness."

Caspian backed away from the window, and he turned back to his secret guard, who bowed his head respectfully. "Who's she?" Caspian asked with a cold, blank voice.

"Your highness, the arranged mate is Eulla Conan, the first daughter of Prime Minister Conan. She's an alpha, but she had decided not to get together with your highness because of the current rumors about your highness." The guard reported talking about the rumors that floated about saying the prince is useless and a retarded person.

Caspian's lips quivered, and he tapped the wooden table rhythmically. 'A greedy person like that is not worthy of him.' Caspian thought. "Continue."

"So, the prime minister had decided to switch Eulla for Xylah,"

Caspian's eyes lowered, and an incomprehensible emotion flashed in his eyes. "That young girl he brought back from Feast Country?" Caspian asked with a solemn look.

"Yes, your highness. Originally, Miss Xylah found her mate last night, which is young Master Errol. But he had rejected her in the morning for being a useless omega; - everything had been mistakenly captured on live because Eulla had wanted to brag about it."

Caspian let out a cold sneer. Bragging? Really? Prime Minister Conan had really raised two capable daughters: a scheming bitch and a useless one, so Caspian would rather not have either of the two.

Xylah's head was throbbing in pain, her eyes were red, she was curled in a fetal position, and she silently sobbed to herself. Rylee has also kept her mouth shut, and the two of them silently nurse their hurt and broken hearts.

"He's a bastard." Rylee cried out. "He broke our heart live. Everybody would be laughing at us now." She said, and it made Xylah sob more.

"I had a faint idea that Eulla planned the humiliation with Errol. How can he do this to us?" She asked with unhappiness and tried not to cry.

"Don't cry, Xylah, please." Rylee began to beg but the more she did, the more Xylah's tears fell. "I trusted him. He was the first person we placed our trust in. It hurt!" She said.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

"Get out. Leave me alone!" Xylah yelled loudly in a hoarse voice.

"Young Miss, the prime minister asked to meet you."

"I don't want to…"

"He says you shouldn't make him act…" the servant who reported said in a voice that revealed how hard she was trying to stifle her laughter.

"Bitch!" Rylee cursed the servant as Xylah stood up languidly. Xylah washed her face, and soon she was making her way to her father's study. Her eyes suddenly looked downstairs, and she saw Errol.

Their eyes met for a few seconds, and Xylah seemed to see a sad emotion floating in his eyes, but she didn't believe he was sad; that jerk had broken her heart. Therefore, Xylah looked away from his gaze with a scoff.

"I never think he's this idle… Doesn't he know how to…"

"I don't want to hear about him, please," Xylah begged and entered the study. She saw her father in his chair and her stepmother bedside him. "Prime Minister," Xylah said with a slight bow. "Madam," she said hoarsely.

Prime Minister Conan looked at Xylah's face, and he seemed to see a face flash in his head. A hesitant emotion flashed in his eyes, but before he could say anything, Corinne held his hand with a nudging smile.

Prime Minister Conan's hesitancy immediately disappeared. "Tomorrow you'll go to Prince Caspian's palace as his betrothed fiancee…"
