Exchanging Vows: The Swapped Wife Is a Top Shaman novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73: Chapter 73

Seraphina’s Point of View

I could not comprehend it. My brain completely refused to accept the reality that Dominic was actually alive and awake. I had tried so hard to hide my shock, forcing my facial expressions to stay still, but the moment the crowd began to disperse, my expression changed completely.

After the people who were chanting Dominic’s name finally left to continue whatever thing they were doing, the fake smiles on our faces vanished instantly. We retreated into a corner of the courtyard, away from prying eyes.

Bastian’s mother Vivienne, Mrs. Margot, and Bastian all showed deep displeasure. We were all filled resentment, but it was Mrs. Margot who looked the most furious.

"That miserable, wretched brat!" Mrs. Margot hissed, her voice filled with anger as she cursed him. "How is he not rotting in a ditch? May the Moon Goddess curse him! He was supposed to die in that coma! He is a parasite that refuses to burn."

Even if we were in a corner, few people were around. And Mrs Margo wasn’t caring who will hear us.

"Mother, if he is fully awake, this changes everything. I am worried that Father will just hand the position of heir back to Dominic again. Now that he is breathing and talking, Father won’t hesitate to cast me aside. I am the one who has been running this pack while he slept!" Bastian said.

He made sense. We all faced his mother for what she have to say.

Vivienne was just as anxious. "Bastian is right. Alaric never truly saw you as the future, Bastian. It was always Dominic." She said.

Mrs. Margot sneered. "I will never let that happen," she stated firmly. "Do you think I have spent months planning our future just to watch that crippled boy take it all back? Over my dead body." Mrs. Margot spat.

But Vivienne was not calm at all. She shook her head.

"You don’t understand, Margot. It feels like all of our plans have completely failed."

But Mrs. Margot just scoffed, slapping Vivienne’s hand away. "Stop your whining, Vivienne. You should not let this temporary setback disturb your mind so easily," she said.

"Look at him!" Margot continued, a  mocking laugh escaping her lips. "Dominic is now just a useless, disabled person. Did you see his legs? He couldn’t even stand up to greet his own people! If the Alpha even tries to talk about giving the position of heir back to him, I will be the first person to stand up in front of the pack elders and oppose it!"

She was really serious about opposing it. She didn’t want to let Dominic consciousness weakened us. Truth be told, I was already weak to my knees.

"A pack cannot be led by someone who cannot even walk. Dominic cannot be heir in a disabled form. His legs are completely useless to this pack... and so is he. He is nothing but a broken toy now."
