The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 293

Chapter 293: JESSICA BECOMES ANNA

Once Leah had left Jasmine went back into the room.

She looked at her miserly dress and decided that she needed to wear something else.

She went through the wardrobe searching for a dress.

They were all filled with extravagant and outlandish dresses.

Dresses fit for women of the elite.

Women who were not like her.

She finally found a simple pale blue dress.

She tried it on and despite the fact that it showed off her cleavage, it was better than all the other dresses that she could swear would have closed her breast’s with the slightest inconvenience.

She brushed and braided fire hair into a single braid.

Then she looked at herself in the mirror.

Never in her wildest thoughts did she ever believe that she would have looked this pleasant in her father’s pack.

She sighed heavily and built the confidence within herself and then walked out of the room.

She walked away towards the hallways.

She could still remember the way through the pack house.

As she walked down she looked at the familiar doors, at the room she had cleaned and servants hurried past.

There were a lot of sounds of people working on the pack to rebuild it.

The servants who saw and recognized her, bowed their heads in shame as they walked on ahead to their work .

She finally reached the dinner hall and there were guards standing at attention.

"I am Jasmine. Alpha Xaden had sent for me." She said.

They sniffed her, opened the doors and stood out of her way.

"Thank you." She nodded.

They ignored her and once she stepped into the dinner hall she saw Xaden seated with Erik having a meal.

"Lord Xaden." She curtseyed.

He gave her a faint smile. "Jasmine how are you?" _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}

"Fine my lord."

She wanted to ask how his cut was and then Erik beamed at her.

"Jas Jas." Erik said winking at her. "Good to see you looking swell."

"Thank you." She blushed. Then she turned to Xaden. "You sent for me."

"Yes I did." Xaden said and then motioned for a seat beside him. "Take a seat."

Jasmine was wary and uncertain but she did as he asked and sat down.

He snapped his fingers and then servants came bringing in meals before her.

Once they set them down he said. "Eat."

Jasmine was very surprised and confused.

Erik and Xaden resumed eating and discussing matters while Jasmine just sat there.

And then Xaden turned to see she was seated frozen and her face Pale.

"Would you not eat?" He asked her.

She shook her head.

And then it occurred to him that she perhaps thought that he had poisoned her food .

He took her spoon and had a bite of her food and then handed it back to her.

"And you are?" Jessica asked him with a tone of curiosity.

"No proper introductions were made yesterday." He said. "Anna this is Erik. He is my gamma and second in command."

She curtseyed. "It is an honor to meet you."

"I feel the same way." Erik said.

And then Anna turned and saw Jasmine.

Anna’s face which had been blooming and seemingly happy fell once she set eyes on Jasmine seated on their table .

"What are you doing here?" Anna demanded harshly.

"Good morning." Jasmine greeted.

"I asked what you were doing here." Anna said completely ignoring her greeting.

"Jasmine is here because of me." Xaden said. "I understand that you might not be fine of her because of what her family and blood line did to us."

"Not just that." Anna said glaring at Jasmine. "She was awful to me in the pack. She hated me from the start and did such awful things to me I can not even begin to speak on them."

Erik rose a suspicious brow up at her. "Were you not raised as their daughter and they kept their own illegitimate daughter as a servant?"

Anna began to stutter. "Y..yes. That is true. But you see I did not really care for all the things that were offered to me. But Jasmine hated me so bad because of what her parents did and she turned on me. She hated me for taking her place and when she was meant to serve me, she would hurt me and punish me. I was unable to defend myself."

Xaden looked at Jasmine.

"Is this true?"

"No." Jasmine said slightly annoyed. "it isn’t."

"Are you calling me a liar?" Anna demanded.

"No. I simply denied what you said about me treating you badly." Jasmine said.

"You are calling me a LIAR!" She screamed.

"ENOUGH!" Xaden slammed hard down on the table.
