Daisy’s POV“What?” My lips quivered as I stared at the seer. I didn’t want to believe that her revelation was true, that I was going to suffer another failed relationship. “That’s impossible!” Landon growled beside me, inching closer to the seer. “Re-do it again. I don’t believe that’s right.” I was a bit relieved that Landon also didn’t agree with the revelation. After all, he invited her to the palace. If there was anyone who had the rights to disagree with her, it was him. The seer cackled, her tongue running over her blackened teeth. Her eyes sparkled with mischief but I couldn’t tell if it was just the natural characteristic of witches to be crafty or she had something up her sleeves. “The moon goddess doesn’t make mistakes.” She eyed me wearily. “Your mate should be more concerned than you, Prince. She is the key to everything.” I choked back a curse, my heart thumping hard in my chest. “Me?” I exhaled. “What could possibly go wrong with us? You made the previous prophecy a

Daisy's POVA low chuckle left Landon's lips as he shook his head slowly. He turned to me, his gaze a mixture of sadness and pain. "Do you want to know why I didn't tell you about her, mother?" He asked, taking a step closer to her, his hands clenched beside him. "It's obvious." Queen Athena purred, shooting me a disgusted glare. "You're ashamed of her. I would be ashamed and embarrassed by her too. I can't believe the moon goddess would make you wait for years and give you this—this.." She scrunched up her face in disgust as she pointed at me. It was like she was avoiding staring at me completely like a look from me could curse her with leprosy. "This girl. It's unbelievable that you would bring her into this palace in the first place." "I've waited for hundreds of years to find my mate—" Landon began but his mother quickly chipped in. "That is not an excuse to bring in just anybody to this palace." "Can you hear yourself?" His voice thundered, echoing across the room fiercely. I

BACK AT LIGHTCREST PACK "You wont believe this!" Martha exclaimed as she dashed into Alexander's room. She found him in his study, leaning back in his chair and talking on the phone. She had a wide grin on her face as she waved an envelope, sealed with the royal ink, in the air. "The Lycan Queen sent us an invite." "I'll talk to you later." Alexander breathed to the person on the phone, then snatched the envelope which contained the invite from her. "An invite to what?" He asked, ripping off the seal. His hands were unsteady as he took out the invite, his eyes gleaming over it. "I don't know." She shrugged. "What does it say?" She leaned closer to him, trying to read the letter.Without tearing his eyes away from the letter, Alexander rose to his feet. A small smile carved around his lips as he read the invite once more, to be sure he didn't misread it earlier. "It's an invitation to a masquerade ball." He finally told her. "A ball?" Martha wasn't impressed. "What kind of ball? A

DAISYI shifted my gaze to where Landon was standing as he smiled at something one of the members said. He was oblivious of my turmoil, and I wished I could call out to him. My fingers touched my chest as I felt the pain ease, only for me to turn back to where Alexander had being and see no-one."Oh, Moon Goddess!" I exhaled. "Where did he go?"My breath caught in my throat as I looked around in a bid to see if he could be in the many faces beneath the masks. There was no-one in that cringy blue suit. I was just on my own. I took a shaky breath, as I assumed that I had imagined it all. I was such an idiot sometimes. Noticing that some of the guests were still looking at me like I had grown two heads, I gave a fake smile. "I’m fine. Please, you can enjoy the party," I said calmly.A few smiled in encouragement, while others looked at me like I had gone mad. Well, it was quite possible that I have. How could I think about Alexander at this point? Jeez! I slowly caressed my hand slowly

DAISYI swallowed the lump in my throat as I tried to put on a brave face. There was no way I would let them know the truth. I could feel the eyes of almost everyone in the close radius, waiting for me to speak, so they could pounce on me."What makes you think that I’m that woman?" I scoffed.The lady stepped closer to me. "Well, there are a lot of things that proves that you’re the rejected omega. You’re visibly shaking, and you’re almost in tears. If that is not enough, you’re a werewolf and so much smaller than the Lycans. You match the description the queen had said. I believe that you’re that omega. It was Daisy, right?" She asked the princess easily.I clamped my hands together at once as I gave a slightly breathy laugh. "What are you saying?" I mocked.The two women gave me a look. I rolled my eyes in a bid to act as though they were all blabbing at this point. "I’m not that woman, please. I really think that you’re trying to insult me.""But..."I held my hands up, stopping t
