Chapter 27
“No. No. No.”
I looked around for any possible way of escaping but there was none. Before I could think of running, Jack grabbed me by the hair and pulled me to the ground.
I let out a groan of pain. He didn’t waste any time and kicked me hard in the stomach. For a second, it felt like I couldn’t breathe. Then his friends continued, all of them kicking me and hitting me with whatever they could find.
“Useless mutt.”
“She doesn’t even have a wolf yet.”
“Pathetic.”
I closed my eyes, trying to block out all their hateful words but it wasn’t working. All I could do was lay there, and wait until they
were tired.
The tears were already sliding down my cheeks as I cried in silence. Eventually, they got tired and left. Jack made a show of spitting
on me before he ran off.
It wasn’t the first time they were bullying me and I knew it wasn’t going to be their last. I was being punished for the crime of simply
existing.
I would never forget all the pain I endured back at the orphanage. Olavir had been watching me and must have noticed my silence.

“Is something wrong?” he asked, a look of worry on his face.
I shook my head, forcing a smile to my lips. “Nothing. Just…remembering the years I spent at the orphanage.”
He nodded his head. “How was your life then?”
“It was…okay. I don’t know which one I miss more between routine life and getting to live among people that were just like me. You get the feeling right? Finally finding a place you could call home. Life was okay.”
Olavir nodded his head as he listened to me. I hadn’t told him about all the torture and abuse I’d endured at the hands of my bullies.
“You must really miss the staff and your friends.” He sighed. “We should go there some day.”
I forced a smile on my face, not quite giving him a reply. I’d rather not have to go back there ever again.
Eventually the helicopter began to land and I realized we’d reached our destination. Olavir helped me out of my seat and held my hand as we stepped out of the helicopter. Blair followed suit behind us.
The royal soldiers were lined up in a neat and organized arrangement. As soon as I stepped down on to the red carpet that had been
laid out, they all got down on one knee.
“Welcome home, princess!” Their voices/boomed in unison.
I couldn’t believe this. I’d only ever seen this happening on TV. And now, the exact same thing was happening to me. The royal soldiers were right in front of me, bowing their heads in respect.
“Welcome home, princess.” Olavir’s voice was soft as he stared at me, a smile on his face.

Chapter 27
I couldn’t help the grin that made its way to my face. A man began making his way towards us, I didn’t need anyone to tell me be I knew he was a prince.
He was dressed in a sleek navy blazer tailored to perfection, paired with a crisp white shirt and a fitted black turtleneck underneath His dark pants complemented his polished shoes. There was a subtle silver chain hanging around his neck. A pair of sunglasses rested on his head, giving him an air of casual elegance.
“Evelyn.” He beamed, a huge smile on his face. “I can’t believe you’re finally back.”
