Semua Bab The Silver Wolf: Bab 131 - Bab 140

Immediately after she left, my legs gave way immediately, and I staggered, trying to find my balance.I quickly reached out to the pillar beside me and used it for support. Sweat dripped down my body as I tried so hard not to let her words get to me.I looked at the guards standing motionlessly beside me and saw that they still wore their indifferent attitude, behaving as though they hadn't heard nor seen what had just happened. They didn't care at all about what had just occurred.Though I didn't expect much from them, but their indifference got to me. However, I could not blame them.Taking in a deep breath, I pushed away from the pillar and resumed walking toward the room, with the guards following closely behind me.We soon reached the entrance of the room, and as I was about to push it open, I heard one of them clear their throat, hence, getting my attention.I paused and slowly turned to look at them, not sure what to expect. "Um...If you don't mind me saying this, though we've

Their voices were loud enough to attract everyone's attention, and the people present got the picture of what had happened and fully realized who I was. Even those who were not present that day now know who I was. Their expressions changed gradually and settled with hatred, disgust, anger, name them. As I listened to them and felt the gazes of everyone on me, I wished so badly for the ground to open and swallow me up. I had never felt so completely scared and humiliated like this before, and I visibly trembled. Even when I was working as a maid, no one acted toward me in such a way. As I stood there at the entrance, hearing as everyone was saying hateful words, I didn't know what to do. I thought to turn and run out of the hall but, on second thought, didn't because that would be me disregarding Queen Ashley's summon, which would lead to being on bad terms with her, which was not a good thing for me. Since leaving was out of the option, I could not think of anything else. I kne

The faces of the people around who heard her words turned sour, feeling hurt inside but couldn't show how they felt outside."Alright, that's enough, Audree. Let's join your mother at the table. Your father and brother will soon join us, and we don't want them seeing us still standing about at the hall." Princess Alexa said, cutting her off and leading the way."Yes, aunt." Princess Audree responded before following her. As soon as I heard Princess Alexa mention him, I became tensed immediately.Has he recovered?I stopped walking and looked towards the entrance of the hall, expecting his arrival.However, I was not the only one who heard Princess Alexa's words and was curious about his presence; those around us also heard her.Whispers and murmurs could be heard almost immediately. Some even went to the extent of saying that they would wait for his arrival in the hall, while some went to the entrance to gather in small groups on the claim that they wanted to be among the first to s

On hearing the scream, those who were standing around me rushed toward the location where the scream came from to check what had happened.My heart raced without me being aware of it as another resounding scream filled the hall.The scream was bone-chilling and terrifying upon hearing it. It was more heartwrenching than the first.The first scream sounded like a shock, while the second one was filled with pain, extreme disheartening pain.As I stood there, watching as people rushed into the dining hall and listening to whispers from there, I had a nagging feeling about what had happened and trembled on the spot.Cold sweat formed against my forehead as I imagined what was going on in the dining area. I was lost on what to do.I didn't know if I should step forward to see what was going on or to stay put and not get involved. I wasn't sure if I wanted to witness the scene.However, as I was still contemplating, I heard another scream, and a raging growl followed the scream. I knew in

"Uhm... Y...Your Highness," I was saying before another angry growl from him cut me off. His eyes narrowed, and his face contorted with rage. I could feel the intensity of his anger radiating off him, making my words catch in my throat. The room fell silent as the weight of his fury hung in the air. "I dare you all to repeat your words!" The sudden growl had me taking tiny steps backward. His piercing gaze bore into me, filling me with an overwhelming sense of dread, even though I knew it was not directed toward me. The intensity of his anger was palpable, making it clear that any further provocation would have dire consequences. He growled out angrily, frightening everyone present. His voice echoed through the room, causing a collective shiver to run down our spines. The tension in the air was suffocating, leaving us all paralyzed with fear. Those who had just spoken trembled in fear, praying he would not single them out to deal with them. The dining hall became so quiet that
