Eve~
After the little incident with the reporter who looked like she wanted to sink her fangs into my neck, I felt a bit more at ease. The moment the question had come out of her mouth, it hung in the air like an anvil waiting to fall on my head if I didn't do something quickly.
I wanted nothing more than to run, but when every eye had landed on me, my anxiety spiked. There was no escape. There had been a time when public speaking had been my forte. I had been tutored and trained to be a girl who was supposed to inherit the throne. I was supposed to be Alpha someday.
But the years had changed me and shifted my course. Still, when it came down to it, I managed to channel the princess I once had been and found my tongue enough to put the reporter where she belonged. As much as it pained me to admit, Hades' warning had helped.
