Chapter 502: ERIK’S TRUE LOVE
"What did you just say to me?" Fiona asked her eyes widened in rage her own eyes now shifting to its wolf color.
"You heard me right." Anna snapped at her, her beautiful face screwing up to an ugly facial expression. "You’re just here as a pity party. Your miserable mother died and my brother had no choice but to take you in."
The by standers now stood watching the spectacle.
Anna was breathing hard now and seemed to be trying her best to calm her down.
"You’re not my brother’s sister." Anna hissed with such bitter intent. "And you’re not my sister either. You never will. You will always be an outsider in my family. This is my pack. I’m a heir. My mother and father owned this pack. You’re a dirty cheap orphan so you better watch yourself. Trying to cross my path and I’ll put you in the place you rightfully belong in."
Jasmine for a split second thought that Fiona was going to use her claws and slash Anna into tiny pieces.
Her fingers were now turning into her wolf claws and fur filled her hand.
But then Fiona shocked everyone by not reacting.
Instead they watched as her claws traced back into her hand and the fur disappeared.
She took in a deep breath and tilted her head with a smile.
"Exactly what I thought. Touch me and see what happens to you." Anna said satisfied at the fact she had taunted Fiona and put her into a corner.
Then Anna turned her venom back to Jasmine. "Look at you. You want to take my place? You want to be the Luna of this place? And you can’t even carry my nephew. You can’t even be of any use to us. You need to hear what everyone says about you. It’s bad enough you’re the daughter of a murderer."
Jasmine closed her eyes.
How convenient it was that Anna forgot she had been raised by the same monster and even spoiled by them.
"Something so simple. You wanted to kill my brother and takeover the pack. Left to me, you would be dead. Your body hanging by the walls as punishment for everyone else. But my brother has a kind heart."
And then Fiona started laughing surprising everyone.
She laughed so hard that all eyes were now on her.
"You’re right about one thing though." Fiona stated with a curved smile. "I can’t hurt you. I would have loved to. I would have really loved to. And I definitely would have the chance to. But there is something you’re wrong about."
"I know you think that Jasmine is the one with Erik. You think he is in love with her." She said. "You have been so awfully mean to Jasmine. But you’re wrong. The one Erik is in love with... is me."
Anna’s face turned to an instant red.
"Yo.... You’re.... You’re lying." Anna stuttered.
"I’m a lot of things." Fiona laughed. "But a liar isn’t one."
Anna’s face was bright red, her hands were red and she was filled with rage and humiliation.
"You wish!" Anna spat.
"Honey it’s you who wishes." Fiona stated. "You wish he was."
Anna was shaking, you could see her body visibly trembling. "He is mine. He is my mate."
"Very true." Fiona agreed. "But it’s me he loves. It’s always going to be me. Never you."
Anna stood all eyes now down on her.
"You fucking bitch!" She screamed in anger as she rushed to attack Fiona.
"ANNA STOP THIS!" A thunderous male voice barked in order.
It was none other than her brother, Xaden.
He had appeared from nowhere and stood towering over everyone.
Anna recoiled quickly on seeing him.
And then she began to weep.
She rushed to him and began to cry against him.
"You can’t believe the awful things Fiona has been saying to me." Anna lied with most likely real tears from the sudden revelation she had discovered..
"This is not how you behavior in front of everyone." Xaden said a hint of anger in his voice.
It was apparent that he hadn’t heard the entire thing.
Anna looked relieved to know he hadn’t caught her and she could once again twist things to her own side.
"Would you believe that Fiona and Erik are having an affair." Anna said quickly.
Xaden looked up at Fiona.
"Is this true?" He asked her.
"Yes." Fiona admitted without beating about the bush.
Anna’s face went red in rage still angry at Fiona’s words.
Xaden said nothing.
Then he turned to the by lookers.
"What are you looking at?! Get back to work!" He barked and everyone dispersed in a second.
Then he turned back to a tearful Anna. "I don’t care what you knew or didn’t. I wouldn’t tolerate having you behave in such a manner in public."
Anna gasped at him reprimanding her.
Her lips faltered.
And then he turned to Fiona. "That goes for you too. I don’t know what’s happening here. Or what you two are doing. Fighting for a man...
"We’re not fighting for a man." Fiona snapped back.
"It sure looks like it." He stared back at Fiona. Meanwhile Anna fumed and glared at Fiona.
"And I don’t care what or who you’re fighting over just don’t do it in front of the servants."
They both said nothing.
"I’m so sorry." Anna apologized. "She was just making fun of me. I had no idea."
Xaden simply said. "We will discuss this later."
Anna didn’t look pleased that he hasn’t taken her side.
She was more upset that he had yelled at her.
She had never thought that he could do such a thing to her.
She swallowed hard.
"I’m sorry." She hastily apologized.
Xaden said nothing.
Jasmine turned around to leave with Fiona.
"Jamsine wait." Xaden said reaching out to grab her arm.
She flinched at his touch and withdrew quickly.
She didn’t even look at him.
She just hurried out of the hallway.
