The ride back to the palace was excruciating and got even more so when the queen and king refused to drop her at the hospital.
After Honour's display on the phone, Lina soon realised her parents were sulking. Beta Alpha Jackson drove through the palace gates at painstakingly slow speed.
Thankfully, the werewolves did not swarm the royal convoy when they got in, however, Lina was stopped when she reached the door. Her mother's voice was both calm and steeled in a tone she knew all too well.
"Do clean yourself up first, dear. We wouldn't want some of that filth to infect our delta patient," the woman would not meet her eyes, but Lina was sure she was being very serious at the moment.
Gritting her teeth in frustration, Lina exited the car and rushed to her room, ignoring most of the people that stopped to show their respect for the passing royal.
