The Alpha's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 185: LANA SAVED THE DAY

A FEW MINUTES BEFORE THE ATTACK

As Jasmine and Fiona walked away amidst the chanting of the crowd, the girl’s mother turned to face her.

”What did that witch do to you?” She asked. ”We need to take you to the healer. Who knows if she has put a hex on you.”

”But mother-

The little girl tried to talk to her mother but was hushed.

”Do not speak!” The mother admonished. ”I have told you to get away from that witch! But you would do what you want to do now look at that wound on your head.”

The little girl tried to speak up and tell her mother that Jasmine had saved her when she had fallen in the ditch.

But her mother hushed her immediately.

”Something needs to be done about that woman!” Someone hissed. ”Ever since she came to the pack, bad things have been happening to us.”

”The curse of her cursed blood when she became the maiden made the plight on us worse.” Another she-wolf wept dramatically.

”Before she came to the pack I had a bad dream and it rained so heavily that night! It was a sign!” Someone said with so much drama.

All of them around nodded and whispered in agreement.

”You need to take Lana to the healer.” The woman said. ”Who knows if the witch put a hex on her!”

”I was just saying that to her. Look how she is being rude and disrespectful to me. I am sure it was that leech who did something to her.” Lana’s mother said. ”We need to speak to the Alpha. We do not want someone like her around us.”

They nodded in agreement.

Lana’s mother grabbed her and pulled her daughter down the hallways and argued about how she was being naughty.

Every time Lana tried to tell her mother what had actually happened her mother would ask her to shut up.

Her mother told her not to question any of their decisions and was now one hundred percent that the witch had wanted to use her for sacrifice.

After her mother cleaned up her wound and put bandages on it, she said she was going to take her to the healer.

But then one of the other co-workers came around and said that they had some urgent work and her mother was forced to leave her.

But not without saying. ”Your father will definitely hear this!”

And then she left.

Lana was quite unhappy.

The woman who had risked her life to save her was now being called names and made fun of why she did not understand.

She had to find a way to apologize to the woman.

She knew what to do!

She will pick some wildflowers and give them to her in a bouquet.

The little girl ran off down the massive hallways and headed in the direction where she knew she would find the prettiest wildflowers.

She picked them up until they were a beautiful bouquet of various flowers.

Then she looked around, wondering where the woman had gone.

She knew that If she asked any adult where she was, they would not tell her.

So she turned into her wolf, a very small pup, and then she ran off to find Jasmine.

She sniffed her around, and it was easier for a baby wolf to find another scent.

She sniffed it ahead and with the Flower bouquet in her mouth she ran off in the direction to where she knew she would find her.

She ran down a little path and went into a forest she had never been to.

But she was a tiny wolf, still a child and children’s freedom had no bounds of fear.

So she ran off, moreover she always went to places without her mother’s consent.

If her mother knew all the places she and the other little pups ran off to, they would all be in trouble.

Including their own parents.

She found a little swamp, and then she saw Jasmine and her friend together.

She could hear Jasmine crying as she drew closer, and she felt that it was because of what her mother and the other people had done.

She slowly went up to them, and then Jasmine looked up and saw her.

She gasped softly.

Lana calmly dropped the flower bouquet on the floor and sat down to look up at Jasmine.

”Oh, hello.” Jasmine said, the fright leaving her face.

Then she wiped off the tears, but her eyes were visibly red.

”Who are you?” Jasmine asked.

Fiona sniffed. ”That scent. Isn’t she the girl that you saved from the ditch?”

Lana nodded her cute wolf head.

And then Jasmine looked closer and saw the part of her head that had bandages.

She reached out and then said. ”Look at that, the little girl has a gash on her head. Her mother must have cleaned it up.”

”After she had created so much trouble,” Fiona said, folding her arms in annoyance.

Then Jasmine sighed. ”It is not her mother’s fault she hates me.”

Then a tear dropped from her eyes, and this time, Lana went and climbed her and licked off her tears.

Jasmine giggled as it was ticklish. ”Thank you.”

Then the girl ran back to the flowers and, grabbed it by her mouth and brought it to Jasmine.

”I think she is telling you thank you and perhaps sorry for what happened.” Fiona shrugged her shoulders.

Jasmine smiled at her and smelled the flowers. ”Thank you very much.”

And then she rubbed the back of her ears.

Then Lana felt a presence, turned back, and looked at a woman approaching them.

A scared Lana ran behind the two women.

”Go, Lana,” Jasmine said. ”Go run, hide! Now!”

With a whimpering, Lana ran off from behind.

She knew they were in trouble and then ran so fast she bumped into Alpha Xaden.

She stopped instantly, and then she dragged him in their direction.

Crying and howling.

He stopped picking her up and perceived Jasmine’s smell on her fur.

It was then he let her lead him to where they were.
