บททั้งหมดของ Reclaimimg His Rejected Lycan Princess: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

I don’t know when I slept off but I woke up to the feeling of someone caressing my cheek and pushing my hair out of my face. The first person that came to mind was my mother but then my mother’s palms were softer while this one was tougher and this person did not in any way smell like my mother. I wanted to jump into a sitting position but my body felt too heavy. I could only open my eyes, blinking gently to adjust to the darkness as I slowly pushed myself into a sitting position.The stranger must have noticed that I was awake with all my movement because they took their hand back.“Hey, you are awake?” It was a deep voice and it belonged to a man. “You were having a nightmare when I came in, I was just trying to soothe you back to sleep. I didn't mean to wake you up.”I blinked as I tried to focus on him to see who he was. He did not sound scared that he had been caught. I wondered who he was that he could walk into my bedroom in the middle of the night without fear.“Who are you?”

We were all seated at the table and were supposed to have started eating but someone was missing. Eva was nowhere to be found and even after father asked a maid to go ask her to hurry up, Eva did not come down.“What’s going on with her? Is she okay?” Mother asked with a worried look on her face as she tried to stand up so that she could go and check on Eva.Simon stopped her from fully leaving her seat, “She is fine, mother. I’m sure she is turning her closet upside down and trying to look for the best gown to wear to welcome Sophia. I saw her this morning and she was really nervous,”“Oh?” Mother laughed and sat back on her chair. “Typical Eva, always trying to impress everyone and get them to like her. Why can’t she understand that Sophia is not a stranger but her sister?”There was nothing I could do. I did not know Eva so I could not go up to her and asked her to not bother trying to impress me. After all, like mother just said, we were family. I just sat there as we waited for E

I spent almost the whole day with Eva. She showed me everywhere in the palace including a hideout she and Simon used in sneaking out of the palace when they were much younger. She still uses it now because our parents were overprotective and won’t let her always leave the palace. Even if they agreed for her to step out, she had to do it with a whole entourage of guards.I found that to be very stifling. In gray moon pack, I might not have been a princess but my position did not make it possible for me to move about as freely as I wanted to.Everyone’s eyes were on me waiting for me to make one mistake so they could laugh at me. I stayed locked up in my box room anytime I did not have to go out because I wanted to avoid being bullied. It was a prison of its own but after living with Troy for a year and tasting what freedom feels like, I couldn't picture myself being locked up here and unable to go out and mingle as much as I wanted to because I was now a princess.The thought of that a

“Ehh, Sophia, I know that you are tired and you need to rest because of tomorrow but there are some people we need to introduce you to. I asked your brother and sister to delay the introduction until you’re settled in and comfortable enough. They are very important because they are family too,” mother said as we mined from the dinning room to the drawing room.Tomorrow was the ceremony. Everything and everyone was ready except for me. Now, mother was saying I need to meet some people. I was curious to know who these people were. If they were family as mother had said, I must have read about them in the family book. I hope they are not snobs.Yeah, my immediate family accepting me was all that matters but then, I’ll also love it if my extended family accepted me and if everyone in the pack accepted me but I knew that the many rumors going around was not in any way going to help me be accepted easily. Those rumors will take time before they are cleared. I hope they will be after the wel

“How do you feel this morning?” Simon asked me as he walked into the room where I was getting dressed with Aria hanging on his arm.I stared at them through the minor in front of me. They were both dressed too and they looked so lovely together. Aria with her dark hair and dark eyes and Simon with his silver hair and blue eyes. They really complimented each other and I felt a twinge of jealousy that I was quick to squash. “I feel…” I was going to lie and say that I felt good but on second thoughts, I decided to say the truth, “I feel nervous. What if things don’t go as planned and what if the people—”“The people like you too much?” Aria completed my statement as she interrupted me. She broke away from Simon and I was surprised when she moved to where I was seated in front of the vanity. She waved at the maids dressing me up and they gave her a little bow before stepping aside.I adjusted my position on the chair so that I was facing her. She bent a little since she was not really t
