JoyReadMy Billionaire Please Bec40 *Chapter 0040 Chapter 0040 Eamon's POV "I just can't believe... Cara, this whole time..." "She wasn't a low born at all." "Not just that, but a princess!" I watch the scene unfold as the Pack DarkWood elders and nobles take in the news I've just delivered about Cara and Lilia. Their faces are full of regret, full of shame. During the investigation into Cara's background, my Beta found story after story of Cara being bullied for her orphan status.
She never deserved any of that. No low-born does.
It's a testament to her work ethic and grit that she ever rose to the Beta position. Lesser she wolves would've hidden themselves away for fear of ridicule. But not my sister. She's an Auburn through-and-through.
In truth, I don't know her all that well, we've only just met. But after reading her file, after seeing what she's capable of... Well, as a brother, I couldn't be prouder. The mob has turned on Lilia now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"But HER! She tried to kill Cara! She used us!" "Well, she'll be a rogue now! What pack would take her in?" "None that I know of!" They're inching closer to her with every comment. And getting angrier.
"Get away from me, you useless lunatics!!" Lilia cries as they approach.
"Murderous rogue!! Murderous rogue!!" They're chanting in unison now.
Part ofdoes feel something for Lilia. After all, we were raised together as family. For the vast majority of my life, she has been my sister But I can't pretend we were ever close. I was always under my father's wing, training to be the next Alpha King. It left little tfor much else.
And Lilia has always been Lilia. Always self-centered, always vicious. Always looking for a way to get herself ahead at the expense of someone else. If a small part offeels sorry for her now, then most offeels like she's finally getting 1.2 +25 BONUS Chapter 004 what she deserves. What she's brought upon herself, by her own actions.
"...BITCH, CARA! She's the one who stole my life! I WILL beca Luna! I WILL HAVE POWER!!!" Lilia screams as she backs up away from the crowd.
Her face is beet red, her eyes red too, and she's got the shimmer around her like she's about to shift. But she can't shift now, she can engage this many wolves in a fight against one. It'd be suicide. Her eyes are darting around before landing on a backdoor just behind the altar.
"This isn't the end of me...!! She growls loudly, menacingly, at the crowd one last tbefore racing out through the 'backdoor. The crowd of DarkWood nobles cheers when she's gone.
In the edge of my view, I see Alaric moving towards the main entrance. I whistle a signal to my brothers, who have been watching from the sidelines, to follow him. We can't let him go to the hospital. Not yet.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRyan and Colin step in front of the doors just before Alaric gets there.
m They cross their arms over their chests, alclear message that Alaricwon't be getting through. "Alaric, wait." I say to him as I make my way over. "More grand revelations you need to make?" He grunts at me. "Look, Eamon, I don't have tfor this. I need to get-" He moves to push my brothers aside.
I grab his arm and interrupt him, "I agree to our conditions." "I give him a hard look. "And you will... IF you Alaric raises his eyebrow atand a low growl rumbles in his throat as he looks down at where I'm holding him back.
It's a risk to touch him like this. He might shift now and try to rip out my throat, but he wouldn't last a second. Not withand four of my brothers surrounding him. This thought seems to occur to him as well, and he stops growling. But his eyes keep going back to the door, keep searching for a way to slip by.
