Alter freshening up as Deckand told me to, I made my way to the dining hall, honger hiting at my insides. To my surprise, the talde was empty. No servants was in sight, no dishes being laid out—just silence.

My stomach growled impatiently as I scanned the room, hoping to find someone to help. With no one in sight, I ventured into the kitchen, but it, too, was deserted.

Where is everyonet

Frustrated, I returned to the dining table and waitral Just as my patience began to fay, Iraught sight of a servant hurrying past. I lagged her down and asked her to bring me food. She nodded nervously and scurriel uit

The moment her eyes locked with mine, she froze mid–step, her expression briefly unreadable before slaifting into something slurper–something deliberately provocative

“Well, well,” she drawled, a sly smile spreading across her face “It is is the future Lama herself!”

I froze, her words hirting me like a slap. “What What do you want from me?” I managed to say, my voice barely steady.

“Oh, please, Amica. My baby toblime all about your little homy charade yesterday. She laughed mockingly,

“What were you thinking? That you could just trap the Alps between your legs! At least have some shame! You could’ve waited for the bonding ceremony to be over before pulling such a desperate stunt”

Her words rang in my ears like a hammer strikin (an anvil. My chest tightened. Lean’t believe he told her!

I felt a wave of humiliation wash over me. How could I have tried him? Now Mary knew, and soon the entire pack would know too.

I sat there, numb, unable to form a response. My hands clenched the edge of the table as my stomach churned.

The servant returned with food and placed it in front of me. Fur

moment, I thought I could pretend Mary wasn’t there, but she wasty’t finished.

“Look at you, the so–called future Launa of Bloodline,” she sneered. “You thought you could foul the Alpha? Instead, you’ve made a spectacle of yourself. How much of a failure can one person be? First, you failed at your precious marriage. Now, even with the most powerful Alpha in Blackwater City handed to you on a silver platter, you still managed to ruin everything”

She laughed coldly, and to my horror, the servant sorted, clearly holding back her laughter as she adjusted the plates in front of me.

I stared down at my food, my appetite replaced by the hitter taste of humiliation.

No. I can’t believe this. Have I become a joke even to the servants? Have they all heart.

Tears blur my vision as I push myself up from the table. My chest feels heavy, my heart pounding with humiliation. I can’t stay here—not after this. What could be worse than this shame!

I slip out through the back door leading to the garden, knowing it isn’t as heavily guarded as the others. There’s a single guard sitting nearby, but as soon as I see him, he gets up to patrol the other side.

This is my chance.
