The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 528

Chapter 528: THE EMERALD PENDANT

Rose who had already been leaving and was already drowning out the imposter’s screams stopped when she heard those words.

*Emerald necklace *

That was information that only close members of the royal family knew about.

Rose froze and goosebumps came across her body.

Her body hairs stood alert and the she whirled around to face the girl.

"Stop!" Rose said and hurried to them.

She pushed the guards off the girl and they retreated.

She began told the girl fervently as though if she let go, the girl would disappear.

"What emerald necklace?" Rose demanded.

The girl tried to free herself from Rose’s grip and rose tightened her hold.

"Your majesty please I only wish to show you." The girl said.

It was only then did Rose release her and she watched in amazement as the girl reached for inside the front bodice of her dress before releasing an emerald pendant.

Rose’s face went white.

This was the emerald pendant.

The one that her family had had for thousands of years.

The one ever royal family expected to ascend the throne had worn.

Now, trembling hands extended the pendant to Rose, who hesitated before taking it.

Slowly, Rose’s knees buckled as she recognized the secret marks carved into the back.

She held the pendant up to the candlelight, heart pounding so loudly she feared the guards would hear it.

Then, her eyes darted to the girl’s, searching for any hint of deception.

But the girl’s blue eyes brimmed only with fear, not guile.

Rose pressed the emerald against her palm, struggling to control her trembling voice.

"How did you come by this necklace?" Her suspicion faded as memories of her long-lost daughter flickered.

"I told you the truth your majesty." The girl expressed almost tearfully. "My mother gave it to me before she died."

Rose was trembling.

She wanted to collapse.

The Queen tried to pull the entire necklace away and then Auburn stopped her.

Almost acting erratic.

"No please! Your majesty don’t! I was warned to never take it off! If I did bad things would happen!" Auburn screamed grabbing the necklaces back.

Rose was stunned.

Stunned because it was true.

Everyone knew.

If the Emerald was taken off a wearer or royal blood then monsters would be unleashed.

Like the time the sea monster had appeared.

Was that why a sea monster had unleashed itself?

Perhaps Auburn had let go of it once and then it escaped?

Which terrified Rose more because no one outside the Royal family knew about it.

But she had told Scarlett when she was a child and made sure she knew it all through.
