Ana’s POV“Selene!” I spin at the sound of my name and suck in a frightened breath when I realize Len is standing right behind me. I stumble back, a hand held to my chest as I bite out a curse.“How did you get over here so fast?” I shudder out, looking up at him.“You’re faster.” Len said, his words cold and tight. I took in his facial expressions and my eyes widened when I realized he was mad. A muscle in his jaw ticked, probably because he was grinding it and he was even bigger than I knew he was up close and slick with sweat from the morning sun.“Yeah.” I answered weakly, unsure of what he expected me to say.“Don’t you agree?” Len prodded, taking a step forward. I took one back.“Uh, w-what do you mean?” I asked, blinking up at him.“You’re faster than me. Stronger too. Or don’t you agree? Do you think I could beat you in a race? Right now?” Len said, his lips quivering into a sinister smile, completely devoid of humor. I swallowed thickly, unsure what was happening. My heart

ANA'S POVMy heart was racing as I walked back into the palace. What the hell had gotten into me? I couldn't even blame myself. I was going through so many emotions at the same time. My eyes were tearing up as I finally stormed into my room, slamming the door behind me. I sat on the bed, trying to catch my breath. It wasn't working. I tried looking at myself in the mirror, but I knew I wouldn't be able to face myself either. I might have disgraced Zach, but the look on his face hurt me. No. I couldn't feel any kind of compassion towards him. Not after everything that he had done. Not after everything he put me through. So why the hell was I feeling bad?I was still lost in my thoughts when the door burst open. I knew who it was before I even turned. “What the hell was that for?” Len asked, with his brows furrowed. “None of your business,” I muttered, and he was beside me before I even blinked. “You can't just humiliate the man without a good reason. And as far as I remember, you

ANA'S POV Lina was back before the matter could escalate more than that. My hands were still on Anna's shoulders. I held her closer than ever. I saw myself in her. There was no denying that. The pain in her eyes were more than recognizable. “Did something happen?” Lina asked looking between me, Anna and the other kids. “I would like to take Anna home,” I said, tipping my chin. Lina frowned. “But you had specifically said that you would never be adopting any child throughout your reign. I can clearly remember our conversation on that.”I almost screamed, and told her that Selene had made that decision. Not me. I took on a deep breath. “Well, I have changed my mind. I want to take her home. Can you get the documents ready?” I asked in the most nicest way that I could muster.She nodded immediately. “Please come with me.”I noticed that her mouth was fixed in a thin line. She definitely didn't look happy as she prepared the documents. I looked down at Anna, and she finally smiled as

ANA'S POV I woke up with a start. My hands were wrapped around Anna. It was the most peaceful sleep I had in a while. But for some reason, my heart was racing when I woke up. It was almost like I was having little revelations. I was running in bushes for some reason. Turning back constantly like I was being chased. I pushed the thought out of my head, running my hands through Anna's body, trying to make sure I didn't hurt her in any way. Her sleeping in this room was another reason why Len was going to dislike her even more. He obviously had plans. We were already kissing last night when we heard a tiny knock on the door, and it was Anna, saying that she was scared of staying in the maid quarters alone. I instantly felt guilty for leaving her there alone. Len left in anger without a word. While Logan stayed back, cuddling the both of us until we both fell asleep. But now, even he wasn't in bed. I shook my head at the way they both woke up so early. It was probably Selene's thing as

ANA'S POVJust as Logan had advised, I was putting on a pretty white dress. My hair was set in a rough bun. It didn't matter that the dress was red. The Elders were going to permit some black shoes right?Of course they would. Selene was Alpha. I mean… I was Alpha. I had to confirm with Selene to make sure that the Elders really liked her in white, and she confirmed. See? Logan wasn't out there trying to make sure that I wasn't fooling them. He was genuinely helping like a gentleman. Anna was awake by the time I finished getting dressed. I sent her downstairs for breakfast. For every little thing she did, I kissed her forehead. She seemed to like it. I was showering her with all the attention I could. I was showering her with all the attention I couldn't get. I wanted to take her with me to the meeting, but that wouldn't be too pleasing. I ended up walking into the large hall alone for the first time in my life. For the first time, I was walking into a place in this huge palace, with
