Chapter 50: The Dire Wolf and the Little Rabbit

As soon as we touched down in Alexandria, my father had Ms. Julie taken to the hospital. He and Trent got themselves checked out as well, and although they were dehydrated after a bag of saline, they were released. Ms. Julie, on the other hand, was admitted for an overnight stay.

Trent volunteered to sit with her through the first night and my father took me back to the castle. We were almost there when I finally worked up the nerve to tell him what was on my mind.

​​“I think the best thing for me to do is marry Prince Andrew,” I told my father and he looked at me with concern.

“You can’t do that… I know we went through a lot, but the best way for you to claim your throne to Tairia is to complete the rogue trials and finish Alpha Academy. Then take your throne back with an army.”

I shook my head, letting out a sigh. "I didn't come to this decision lightly, father. Marrying Prince Andrew would bring peace to our kingdom and prevent any potential war."
