The Lycan Prince’s Wolfless Slave (Academy Romance) novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33

I stare at her for a long moment. Why is she so threatened by a wolfiess girl like me?

“Alright, Princess Katarina,” I say anyway. just want this to be over.

“It’s Princess Rina,” she snaps.

“Princess Rina,” I correct myself, my voice flat.

She tilts her head, a grin spreading across her face. “Good. Now, you need to prove your loyalty. You’ll do what I want.”

‘Just walk away, Lyra!‘ Wyndra’s voice snarls in my head, her anger vibrating through my bones. ‘Don’t give this bitch the satisfaction!

I ignore Wyndra for a second and look at Rina. “What do you want me to do?”

Rina smiles at me, and then she does something I absolutely didn’t expect. She leans back and stretches her leg out toward me, lifting her foot.

“You will kneel down and kiss my boots.”

When I hear several gasps from around the tables, I realize that everyone has been watching this whole time. Another show for the day.

Rina just glares at me, her foot still stretched out. My heart is pounding hard in my chest, and my blood feels like it’s freezing. I glance back at the table

where Erika and my new friends are sitting. They’re looking at me with wide, scared eyes, filled with so much pity it makes me want to gag. They knew this

was coming. They knew Rina would find a way to humiliate me.

“I’m waiting,” Rina says, her voice loud enough for the whole crowd to hear. “I’ll give you ten seconds.”

Everyone stays silent, watching me. I’m sure some have already brought out their phones, ready to film my humiliation. I won’t give them the satisfaction. I

don’t care if I get punished for this.

“No.”

My voice is sharp and clear. Rina’s jaw practically drops. The shock on her face is so intense it would be funny if I weren’t so terrified. Every student in the

vicinity is frozen, staring at us like we’re about to explode.

“What did you just say?” Rina asks, her voice trembling with fury. “Are you actually defying me? You will regret this, Lyra.”

I feel a sudden surge of confidence. I’ve already been shoved, dragged, and called a thief today. What else can they do to me?

୮

I lean in slightly and give her a small smile. “If you want to punish me for not kissing your feet, you should report me to your mate. I’m sure he’ll be thrilled

to hear about it.”

Without waiting for her to say another word, I turn on my heel and walk away.

‘Yes!‘ Wyndra says in my head, making me smile with pride. ‘That’s my girl! I’m so proud of you for standing up to that brat!‘

Tears of frustration and adrenaline burn the back of my eyes as I make my way back to our table. I expect Erika and the others to be disappointed at me, but instead, they’re beaming with excitement as I sit down.
