Semua Bab Awakening Of The Hidden Alpha Heiress: Bab 31 - Bab 40

CAELAN POVLord Margolis wasn't someone I could easily ignore. He had made his public disagreement with the Lycan King, despite the sanctity of this office. He has never been one to care about opinions that weren’t his and I was certain he'd try all he could to see that Freya didn't win; just to make sure he got what he wanted. My greatest fear for Freya was her inability to turn. It hurt me the way Lord Margolis spoke about her, like all her efforts meant nothing, like the fact that she couldn’t turn was enough to discredit all the work she put in. I tossed the documents to the passenger seat and turned on the car, the roar of the engine just enough to calm my frazzled nerves. I had one thing on my mind, as I drove, the only thing I’d found myself being able to think about these past weeks. Freya. There were a lot of things she didn’t know yet, things I couldn’t bring myself to tell her. At least not yet, for fear that it would destroy everything we’ve managed to build. Like fo

Chapter 32 Freya The place was packed with twice as many people as the last time. And as much as I wanted to loosen up, I couldn’t bring myself to. Thoughts of Caelan and the altercation I had with my mother plagued my mind. Perhaps some drinks might help. “Are you okay? You seem a bit odd.” Aurora asked, tugging my hands as we navigated through the crowd. “I’m alright.” I replied, my voice almost drowned in the loud music. “I need some drinks.” I added. She led the way and soon we found ourselves at the bar. “Two shots please.” I signaled the bartender who looked at me with uncertainty like he was warned never to serve me any drinks. “You heard her, two shots please.” Aurora yelled and he immediately sprang into action. The bittersweet taste hit my throat and I sighed deep with relief, twirling the shot glass between my thumb and index finger. “More please.” I said, forcing a smile. “Woah Freya, you’re on fire today are you sure everything is fine?” Aurora asked,

Chapter 34 Freya I don’t say a word after that because I know it’s pointless going back and forth with her. So I walked away, to my room, slamming the door so hard it almost came off its hinges. I fall face first into my pillow, letting out a muffled groan in agony. The alcohol finally hit and my body started to give in to the drowsiness, “I’ll deal with everything in the morning.” I whispered. The words barely made it out of my mouth before my eyes closed shut, letting the calmness of the night claim me. One buzz. Two. Three. I pried my eyes open, head splitting from the hangover. Groaning, I fished my phone out from under my pillow, struggling to bring the screen into focus.“What the hell is going on?” I whispered, wondering why there were so many missed calls from Aurora.Immediately, another call came in and I picked up. “What’s up?” I said, my voice barely louder than a whisper. Even talking felt like a luxury I could not afford. “Freya! How are you just waking up?” she

Chapter 36Freya My smile faded in an instant but I didn’t want Aurora to suspect that things weren’t right with Caelan and I so I fixed it immediately. “He didn’t.” I lied. “He already knew so I guess I thought you’d be the one to tell him.” I explained, feigning nonchalance. She shook her head, holding my gaze for a second or two. “It wasn’t me.” We spent the next few hours nibbling on the cookies and studying but to me it felt like I was just staring at the words and waiting for them to make sense.I was distracted by my own thoughts, the lie, the bow from the stranger at the party every occurrence made my mind a jumbled mess. “Freya?!” Aurora called out, tapping my feet and I blinked back to the present. Her face was etched in a concerned expression, one I knew I couldn’t easily lie my way out of. “I asked a question. Are you okay? You seem so out it today.” She asked, her tone sincere. I smiled, a smile that barely reached my eyes. “I’m fine, just worried about this last a

Chapter 38Freya“How is that possible? Are you sure you saw it correctly?” I asked in obvious disbelief, She nodded and for some reason she didn’t look too shocked about the situation. “To be frank, I expected it.” She sighed. “I didn’t really find the written examination that easy, my mind went blank in there.” She explained, her eyes trailing to the stage. I walked past her, making my way to the board where the results were posted. Luckily for me, everyone had already checked so I didn’t have to deal with running into Selene or Rowan. My name was at the top of the list, a proud moment. It was written blue and so were the three other names after it, Rowan, Selene and Marcus. The other two were written in red so it was clear they were disqualified. Aurora was right but could Selene really have outperformed her in the exam? “Something feels off.” I whispered. “It’s okay really.” Aurora said, appearing beside me. “I was never interested in being a part of the council, remember?
