Chapter 306
There were total of five kings and queens from five kingdoms, who came to the Barlukan, as they greeted the new king for this kingdom.
But, aside from that, of course, all of them had a hidden agenda, especially when Maximus was the strongest. king with the largest territory among them.
Currently, there were only six kingdoms in this continent, but none of them could compete with Maximus.
“Queen Rania, you look so beautiful,” Queen Glyn said with her sweet voice. She was the mother of princess Abygail. Even though she was no longer young, but you could tell how beautiful she was in her prime.
“Thank you, Queen Glyn, you look fascinating as well,” Rania replied, giving the same respect like the other queen showed her.
This party was exhausting, she wanted this over as soon as possible, because talking to hundred people, who tried to curry a favor from her was not Rania’s forte. She wanted to go back to her bedroom and curl under the blanket, but of course, that was no possible, she had a responsibility here.
“I heard you have met with Abby and she said you two have become a friend, am I right?”
The two of them were currently at the balcony, trying to find fresh air in the cold night, while the music still could be heard from inside the room.
Rania was here first, she was trying to avoid these queens, who kept pestering her, but who would have thought that queen Glyn saw her and followed her here.
“Yes, she is a sweet person,” Rania said sweetly. She felt her cheeks were hurt because she was forcing a genuine smile for hours. She wanted this party to be over soon, but then she remembered that she had to entertain the five queens the next day.
Only thinking abut that alone was already very tiring for Rania.
“I am glad she doesn’t cause trouble here.” Queen Glyn smiled beautifully. “You are on the same age, I can’t even imagine Abby becomes a queen in her age, because she is still very childish. You look so mature for your age, queen Rania.” She then added hastily, just in case Rania misunderstood her. “Of course, I mean it as a compliment. You are an inspirational person.”
“Thank you…” Rania didn’t know what else to say, she wanted this conversation to end, but she didn’t want to be rude with this queen either.
“Oh, and also Abby…”
Rania prayed someone would come to save her…

Ely felt
very
awkward in this party, she had never attended one. Or, to be exact, she had never attended a formal party where everyone was not so eager to be naked and fucked each other.

The party that she attended would always full with crazy people, a bunch of horny men and countless women, who were reluctant to be touched by them.
Therefore, Eli didn’t know what to do in this party, but it didn’t mean she liked the other party better. She would prefer to be left alone.
“You must be the royal gamma’s mate, right?” one of the princesses approached Ely, she looked so stunning in her yellow dress and hair piece that glowed under the light.
Eli tried to remember her name. Last night, Eiten had helped her for this moment, where he told her all the important people who would attend the party.
Hearing their names only added to Eli’s anxiety, but she couldn’t bring herself to refuse to attend, because she knew she was expected to be here and it would give Eiten a bad look if she was not there, especially when it was well known that Eiten had found his destined mate.
“Princess Agness, yes, it is me.” Eli was glad that her memory didn’t fail her.
Princess Agness smiled brightly at her. “Oh, so it’s you… you are the people from Barlukan, right?”
Eli became a little bit awkward because of the question, she didn’t know what this woman wanted from her. “Yes, that’s me.”
“How are you feeling to be mated with the person, who destroyed your kingdom?” Princess Agness still had a smile on her lips, though the question was borderline inappropriate.
Eli tried to keep her smile, but it was so hard, because she was not used to fake her feeling. Her expression would show how she felt and what she thought, since the people in the Barlukan kingdom didn’t care about it, therefore she could express herself without problem.
But now, it was different. Every interaction felt very fake and she had to keep up with her pretense.
“This is the Moon Goddess’s blessing, there should be a change in power in this kingdom and king Maximus comes at the right time,” Eli replied. She tried to be vague, and kept up with the topic, but princess Agness seemed to test her intelligence by asking a few specific questions that shouldn’t be asked in the first place.
“It must be great to have the royal gamma as your mate, right? I heard you came from omega, am I right?” Princess Agness looked like she was asking about the weather, instead of asking about a sensitive topic.
“Yes, I was….” Eli replied in a small voice. She was very aware with herself now, and averted her gaze, embarrassed with herself.
“Oh, I also heard the fate of the omega in this pack…” Princess Agness’s voice trailed off, but Eli could hear her perfectly. “It is said that the omegas are the baby machine to produce more and more young warriors, that’s why the Barlukan kingdom was hard to be taken down because they had a lot of warriors within their kingdom.”
Eli was trying to breathe with difficulty, this was the thing that she scared the most. She didn’t know what to
say.
Her first instinct was to run away from this conversation, but her feet didn’t want to cooperate with her, she was stuck and was forced to hear more hurtful things from this princess.

Chapter 206
“Oh, did royal gamma Etten knew about this? Did he know that you have been with countless men?” princess Agness blinked her eyes innocently “I have never been with one, can you tell me how can you seduce men?”
*1.. I didn’t seduce them” Ell said, the lowered her head and fidgeted with her fingers. She wanted to push away this woman, she wanted to scream at her that she didn’t want that.
For someone to think that she seduced men in the Barlukan kingdom was an insult, because it meant, she wanted the thing that happened to her. The horrendous things that kept her awake at night and haunted her day like a nightmare.
“Really?” Princess Agness widened her eyes and then looked at Eli up and down. “I see, you are beautiful, so you don’t need to do that.” She nodded her head, as if understanding what Eli said. “In that case, you have not yet answered my question; did royal gamma Eiten knew about that? Did he know that you have been with a lot of men? Was he fine with it?”
Eli couldn’t hold it back anymore. She forced herself to leave and walked away, but princess Agness grabbed her wrist, she wrapped her fingers tightly around hers and it felt like vines, like the rope that once tied her up.
“I have not yet done talking to you, where are you going? Are you trying to be rude to me?” Princess Agness sounded unhappy.
“I… please, let me go.” Eli felt like she was about to cry, but she had to hold it back, she couldn’t embarrass herself more than this.
This princess was the only person, who insulted her, but if she cried here, she would be insulted by the whole people in this room. The thought of that alone made Eli scare.
“Why don’t you answer my question? Are you trying to be rude?” Princess Agness smiled sweetly, but her words were like a dull knife that was stabbed on Eli’s chest. “Tell me, how can you make gamma Eiten to want you? Maybe we can share him.”
Hearing the last statement, Eli saw red, she turned her head and glared at the princess, something that even Eli didn’t think was possible for her to do.
This sudden aggression also shocked princess Agness, she loosened her grip on Eli’s hand, and moved away from her slightly, as if she was afraid Eli would scratch her face.
“Please, don’t say such thing.” Eli gritted her teeth. “How could someone as respectful as you want to lower themselves to share a man with an omega like me?”
Eli didn’t know where she got the courage to counter the princess’s words, but what she said pissed the other woman off completely. It was a humiliation for her.
As a princess, of course, having a gamma was a bare minimum that she could do, at the very least, she should be with a beta, but then it became even worse with the way Eli implied her words.
“Wh- what?” Princess Agness stuttered briefly because of the rage that she felt. How could this woman humiliate her?
Seeing the opportunity, Eli immediately pulled away her hand from the princess’s grip.
However, before Eli could escape this situation, it was her daughter, Bella who came looking for her. She had

been playing with the little girls around her age, which was the children from the omegas here and now she wanted to see her mother.
“Mama!” Bella rushed towards her mother and princess Agness saw this opportunity.
