บท 67: The Awakening

Selma Payne's POV:

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

I looked at my ashen self in the mirror and heard Kara's worried voice.

I wanted to tell her that I was fine and had no problem. I wanted to tell her not to worry, but I failed.

Because I was in a very, very, very bad state right now.

Was Aldrich to blame for this? Should I blame him for hiding the truth?

I thought I should because I was his girlfriend. We shouldn't keep any secrets between us.

However, I didn't think I should, because I was his girlfriend. There shouldn't have been any secrets, yet, I lied to him from the beginning.

'Selma' was only a shadow of the past, a forced disguise.

'Madeline' is the current me, the princess of the Lycan Pack, the future Queen.

The real liar was not Aldrich but me. I used a fake identity to gain his love from the beginning, and I couldn't even show this love in front of everyone.
