Story: The Rejected Princess
I opened the box with curiosity and discovered a set of jewellery made of Wolf’s Eye Stone. The Snowshade Pack’s royal insignia was carved underneath it.
Only a Luna was allowed to wear the insignia.
However, Jalen had never given me such a gift.
There was a golden card next to the jewellery that contained some words.
The message read: “Dedicated to my beloved Nyra, From your always loyal Jalen.”
There was even a simple hand-drawn image of them holding hands with Celina.
I smiled sadly and closed the box. “You gave it to the wrong person. This is Nyra’s.”
After I had completely given up on him, all I could feel was numb.
Nyra donned her Wolf’s Eye Stone jewellery and paired it with an extravagant gown. When she approached me, she strutted like a peacock.
“Thank you for returning this set of jewellery to me, Princess Helen. The jewellers had been careless and delivered it to the wrong person.”
“Although, you do understand what Jalen meant with this, right? He can’t wait to marry me, haha.”
“You got lucky three years ago when I didn’t care about him. All I need to do now is beckon at him, and he’ll give me the entire Snowshade Pack. Look at how beautiful this is…”
She extended her hand to my face. The Wolf’s Eye Stone shone brightly.
I smiled. “Silverhowl Pack has plenty of these stones. You can have them if you like them so much.”
“You!” She sneered. “There’s no point being a smart mouth when you can’t bear to leave Jalen.”
I could tell Nyra was just trying to get me to leave.
It was unnecessary. I was planning to leave anyway.
“Congratulations on successfully recycling garbage.”
I summoned the steward and asked him to send someone over to help me pack up. Every item from the Silverhowl Pack was coming with me.
Following that, I called my father with trepidation.
He was furious when he discovered I had used half of my life to make a deal with the witch three years ago. He claimed he should not have given birth to someone as stupid as me.
After that, he kicked me out with a slew of servants and financial assets. He did not even come to my engagement party.
He had raised me, and I failed him. I could only send him gifts and wishes during special occasions, but I could never muster the courage to see him.
“Dad…”
I choked back a sob as I spoke.
My father paused before yelling at me loudly, “What’s with the crying?! An Alpha’s daughter only bleeds but never cries! Tell me, did that rascal bully you?!”
I wanted to say ‘No’ casually, but all logic broke down when I heard the familiar yelling.
“He never loved me, Dad…”
I cried and grieved like a small child. Tears streamed down my face like a waterfall. They wouldn’t stop, no matter how hard I tried. That call consumed a lifetime’s worth of tears.
My father was initially silent, but he soon began to cry alongside me.
