The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 649

Chapter 649: THE SACRIFICE

The moment Jasmine turned her back in Hildegard, she didn’t look back.

She was worried that if she did, she would be overcome with the feeling of guilt. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Hildegard was staying in the prison cell dresses in her own clothes..

Jasmine didn’t know what was going on, but she wasn’t stupid enough to know that Hildegard staying behind was a death sentence.

She very gently and quietly walked up the steps that led out of the cell and went straight ahead.

Her heart was beating so fast she felt it would pump out of her chest.

She remembered how she had taken off her shoes and handed it to Hildegard.

"No." Hildegard had whispered sharply. "You shouldn’t wear any shoes."

She had looked down at Hildegard’s feet and saw that sure enough, Hildegard had no shoes on.

"I didn’t wear to prevent any of the guards hearing my footsteps." Hildegard explained as she collected Jasmine’s shoes and wore it herself. "And you have to do the same. Thread carefully."

And so Jasmine was walking barefoot, literally in her tip toes.

When she finally got to where the guards were, she paused and froze.

They were seated a few inches away from her.

They were facing directly opposite each other playing cards on a deck.

"What the bloody hell?" One swore. "I’ve got two kings that’s not enough."

"Well you didn’t say anything did you?" The other laughed.

They were a new set of guards different from the ones she had seen when she had been brought in.

She held her breath and slowly proceeded to walk past them.

She was grateful for being an unshifted wolf, they could have sniffed her.

As she passed by, one of them froze and said. "Wait."

He paused his game of guards and rose his hand stiffly.

Jasmine froze.

"What?" The other asked annoyed. "You’re trying to cheat aren’t you?"

The first guard waved his hand at the other one in a motion to pause. "I can smell something. Like someone else is here with us."

The other guard rolled his eyes.

The first guards sniffed around, his eyes trailing and pausing at where she stood.

He closed his eyes as he began to sniff closer.

Jasmine paused, her heart skipping a beat as she wondered what she was going to do.

He slowly rose up to his feet and carefully progressed towards her.

She leaned backwards as he was inches away from setting his fingers against her.

And then the moment where if he had just pushed his finger a bit further and touched her, he turned back sharply.

He caught his colleague switching his cards and he swore.

"You bloody thief." He swore as he snatched back his card.

The second guard laughed. "Hey you didn’t seem to want it anymore. You can’t blame me."

The first guard rolled his eyes and poked the head of his colleague.

Jasmine used the opportunity to hurry out of sight.

"I’m not the one imagining or sensing things." She heard the second guard say.

"I’m telling you I smelled something. Except it gave off the scent of a member of the royal family." The first guard who had almost caught her swore.

"Sweet goddess. You need to get that wolf checked. What the devil would any royal scent be doing here....

And sook their words faded into the darkness as she ran far up ahead.

She went on her tiptoes as she knew that a slight mistake would get her caught.
