The Alpha's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 549: IMPOSTER VS THE REAL PRINCESS

Jasmine simply stood there trying to process what she had just heard from the Queen.

She was declared innocent of all that has been accused of.

Past and present.

Did this mean that she wasn’t going to be judged for the false accusations laid against her by Anna?

Jasmine felt her knees go weak and would have fallen if not for the fact that the Queen gently held unto her.

”Easy.” The Queen said as she gripped her arms.

Guards rushed to assist but the Queen motioned them away.

Jasmine was so ashamed to have almost fallen on the Queen.

Jasmine managed a weak smile as she bit her bottom lip.

”Thank you your majesty. I’m so sorry. I’m just so clumsy.” Jasmine apologized quickly.

”Oh that’s okay.” The Queen waved her hand.

Anna face was fallen.

She looked disappointed and filled disbelief.

”Don’t you think so too Anna?” The Queen asked her. ”I think Jasmine has already gone through enough.”

Anna started to stutter.

She seemed gonna thrown into a state of confusion.

”I mean.... Eeeeerr. Unmmm. Of course.” Anna nodded. ”I mean your majesty. Certainly.”

Queen Rose beamed with happiness.

”I can understand it’s hard to forgive and forget the past especially when there is a reminder in our very front. But I think it’s best we embrace the present and look up to the future don’t we?” Queen Rose.

Anna nodded with a fake smile plastered across her face.

”You can never be wrong your majesty.” Anna admitted.

In a split moment, the King stood behind the Queen.

Jasmine had no idea when or how he had gotten from his chair and raced straight across to them.

”I don’t think we should be making decision so quickly my love.” He said as he took her free hand and gently tried to pull aside.

”Don’t worry Roland. I already thought about it.” She responded. ”Made my decision a long time ago.”

The King looked at Jasmine and disgust was written all over his face.

Jasmine was now hundred percent sure he did not like her.

His gaze seemed like a warning for her to back up.

Jasmine didn’t take it lightly.

Especially when she remembered what she had seen between him and the Queen’s sister.

A memory she wished she could block out of her mind forever.

She quickly let go of the Queen’s hand

Queen Rose didn’t seem so pleased.

”Perhaps we should speak about this better. Just the two of us.” He offered.

But the Queen was very stubborn.

”Don’t worry. I’ve already decided.” The Queen said and then turned to face them all. ”Welcome to my home. Thank you Xaden for bringing your family to me. And I welcome you to the three days long ceremony of the coronation of my grand daughter.”

As if on cue, a door opened and a girl with straight and long red hair just like the Queens, walked in with servants behind her.

She looked radiant and beautiful, a perfect pose and elegant demeanor.

She seemed to be around the same age of Jasmine herself.

She seemed to fit into the entire kingdom.

Jennifer watched as none other than Princess Cherry, the Queen’s elder sister followed right behind.

Jasmine looked at the King to see his reaction.

But there was none.

Princess Cherry looked at Jasmine as had a very unpleasant looking smile stamped on her face.

Jasmine trembled in terror as she remembered how Princess Cherry had pulled her aside and warned her off.

Jasmine shivered and turned her face away.

”Grand mother.” The girl said very quickly opening her arms.

Queen Rose opened her arms, hugged the girl and then kissed her forehead.

”Everyone I would like to introduce you to my grand daughter, Auburn.” Queen Rose said as she took Auburn’s hand and showed her off. ”Auburn this is Alpha Xaden of the crescent pack along with his sister Anna, his er... Jasmine and them Nanny Nia.”

They all curtseyed for Auburn.

Including Alpha Xaden.

Auburn gave out her hand before Xaden very gently received it and kissed it.

”The honor is mine meeting you your majesty.” He said.

Auburn seemed smitten with Xaden.

Like she had seen a prized possession and she never for once wanted to let go.

Jasmine felt a twisted knot in her tummy.

Was it jealousy?

She had no idea.

She had told herself that she felt nothing for Xaden anymore.

Or she was going to try her best not to.

So why was she feeling annoyed that Princess Auburn was so obviously well smitten with him.

Jasmine rubbed her arm.

”The pleasure is mine Alpha.” Auburn said sweetly as she batted her lashes over him. ”I’ve heard so many good things about you. It’s an honor to see the great Alpha himself in person.”

Xaden gave her a pleasant smile.

Auburn very gently recollected her fingers.

”This is his sister Anna.” The Queen ushered.

Anna curtseyed in the most elegant way possible. ”It’s an honor to meet you your majesty.”

Auburn who was still looking at Xaden, reluctantly turned to face Anna.

”The pleasure is mine.” Auburn said, that sweet and false smile written all over her place.

Jasmine could tell that Anna was fawning over the princess.

”And this is Jasmine.” Queen Rose said as she finally ushered Auburn to Jasmine.

It was then Auburn first saw Jasmine and he face instantly fell once they made eye contact.

Jasmine noticed it, but was too happy to see the beautiful princess she barely took much thought to it.

Jasmine quickly curtseyed. ”It’s an honor to meet you your majesty. I can’t imagine how happy you are here.”

Auburn gave a smile.

Jasmine truly was happy for her and most of all, she was happy for the Queen.

At least now the Queen could rest.

She was glowing, looked happier than the last time she had seen her.

That was what mattered.

”Thank you.” Princess Auburn said. ”Why do you have red hair?”
