Chapter 23 - A Present Of The Past

A shudder of fear went through her. She ensured to keep her gaze on the floor but his hand forcefully held her chin with his hand and made her look up at him through the tiny nets of her black veil, while his claws dug lightly into her skin.

From the corner of her eyes, she could see him set down his goblet to pull off her veil. Her big brown eyes widened with fear, and she tried to pull away but his tight grip.

The giggling of the women sitting at his feet, filled her ears along with Oana’s whisper for her to just obey and submit to the Alpha’s actions.

He yanked the veil from her face and tossed the small piece of cloth to the floor. Their gaze met, and immediately a ringing sound filled her ears.

A kind of rage rushed through her veins and suddenly, she wasn't on her knees anymore, instead she was on her feet, unstable though as it felt like the dining room was spinning around her.
